Chapter 137: You're Hopeless
"It's all done, Third Young Master. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Info" Maybe everyone else would be frightened by the crows, but Du Ming didn't, he sighed deeply, shook his head and said, "Back then, in order to completely cleanse Zhang Tong's influence in the city guards, you constantly instilled an idea in the city guards, and you told them that the city guards should not be loyal to Zhang Tong, but should be loyal to this city. You make them firmly believe that Damask City is everyone's home, and they must protect the interests of the city, and anyone who wants to destroy the interests of Brocade City is the enemy of the city guard. ā
"I must admit that this method quickly succeeded in making the city guards assimilate to Zhang, and with your means, Third Young Master, no matter what you do, you can easily convince the city guards that your actions are actually to protect the interests of Damask City, but they are not understood by everyone. Therefore, you can completely control the Castle Guard, and with the cooperation of Chief Fujiwara, almost no one can shake your control over the Castle Guard. ā
"However, you seem to have forgotten that it is because of the notion you have instilled in them that if you are unable to convince the Guards that you are acting in the interests of Damask City, the Guards will go from being your most powerful helper to your worst enemy. Of course, maybe you haven't forgotten, but you believe that you won't let the situation go that far, and you won't let yourself fall into this cocooned situation. However, people are not as good as heaven, and a few emergencies have made you no longer able to hide your purpose, let alone convince the city guards that your crazy purpose is actually for the good of Brocade City. ā
"Moreover, if Chief Fujiwara had helped you cover up, you might have succeeded in blinding the members of the City Guard this time, but unfortunately, you personally caused her serious injury, which also made the City Guard completely recognize your true colors. Although I didn't witness it with my own eyes, I believe that the City Guard will never be on your side this time, if you want to use the City Guard to threaten your colleagues, I'm afraid the calculation will be in vain, this time the City Guard will only stand on the side of the Fourth Lady, and will not support you anymore. ā
"No, the City Guard is neutral this time. Fujiwara said with a straight face and indignation, "Early this morning, I sent Xiao Wu, who was seriously injured, to the camp of the city guards, and the city guards have indeed been assembled and are in a state of readiness, as long as they receive orders, they can go into battle." Although Xiao Wu didn't explain what happened last night, she still decided to temporarily restrain the city guards and not participate in the selection of the city lord's heir this time, hum, Third Young Master Zhang, I'm afraid this is also what Xiao Wu can do for you in the end. ā
"Wow, that's wonderful, I should applaud you guys. The crow clapped his hands with a smile, looked unfazed, and said to Zhang Lu without pressure, "Little Si, is this your handiwork?"
"Brother, you should know that I never wanted to compete with you for the position of the city lord. Zhang Lu stopped smiling, her eyes were full of sadness, and she sighed in a low voice, "Even if Grandpa Sun and Aunt Ying have been supporting me, I don't want to fight with you, this meeting was originally just a passing scene for me, and after the meeting, I will be like those elders in the past, far away from Brocade City, and never come back." ā
"So, in fact, before today, I didn't have any preparations, and I didn't leave any foreshadowing like you, brother. I used to think that after the incident of the Strange Beast Tide passed, brother, you vented the last resentment in your heart, and you would return to normal and govern the city well. For me, as long as I know that my brother will take care of this sister's favorite city, even if I die in the wilderness, I will be very satisfied. ā
"But last night, when Uncle Du sent someone to invite me over for a secret talk, I was shocked, I couldn't believe it, this is what you want to do, brother. Moreover, you not only want to kill Uncle Du, but even kill Sister Xiao Wu, just because they are in your way? No, is it possible to get in your way? What about me? If I stand in front of you, brother, will you even kill me together? Thinking of this, do you know how sad I am?"
"However, I still have a little extravagant hope in my heart, I hope that Uncle Du is mistaken, I hope everything is a misunderstanding, and my brother is still the same brother as before. It's a pity, brother, you are too cruel, do you want to deprive you of even such a little luxury?"
"Okay, okay, little four, by now, there is no need to pretend to be weak and delicate. In the face of Zhang Lu's emotional expression, the crow sneered and said, "We know each other too well, do you think I will be easily deceived by your performance? Hehe, you also underestimate me." ā
"Tsk, that's a shame. The sadness in Zhang Lu's eyes was closed, and he regained his smiling appearance, tilted his head and said briskly, "That's right, this is my handwriting, how about it, it's not bad." ā
"Yes, that's good, yesterday you took advantage of the tide of strange beasts to completely show the citizens and troops your ability to dispatch and command, and today you want to perform a Jedi counterattack here again to show your layout ability. The crow chuckled with interest and praised, "It's worthy of Xiaosi, it seems that you have made up your mind to fight with me." ā
"I can have yesterday's performance, and I want to thank my brother for deliberately letting the wolves come over, wanting to consume the strength of the city. Zhang Lu gratefully owed to the crow, "As for arguing with my brother, hehe, there's no way, only in this way can you stop your brother from doing those crazy things again." ā
Zhang Lu's words caused another commotion among the participants below, yesterday the wolves rushed into the city, resulting in a lot of destruction and killing, from the officials to the people, not without resentment, but there is nowhere to vent the resentment. Except for a few officials, no one expected that the wolves were deliberately let in by the crows, which made many people's eyes change when they looked at the crows.
"Yes, yes, after gaining the upper hand, add a bombshell news to mobilize people's anger and resentment to strengthen their advantage. The crow smiled and said, "It seems that you have secretly learned this little thing in my stomach." ā
"That's because my brother is a good teacher, and teaching by example is better than words. Zhang Lu smiled mischievously, "If this news is confirmed, it will be useless for my brother to go to the city guard's camp in person now, and it will be impossible for the city guard to follow you anymore." ā
"The current situation is already obvious, Uncle Du, Uncle Song, Grandpa Sun, and Aunt Ying are all on my side, I have a large advantage, unless all the ministers below support you, otherwise...... Hehe. My dear brother, do you think that in the current situation, it is possible for you to get everyone to support you? ā
