After all, the fire of the city closed down became more and more intense, because I didn't know what happened for a while, so not long after the government first used iron-fisted methods, more and more voices of resistance finally rose in the city.

The 2,000 soldiers and horses who entered the city could order a ban on all personnel accumulation after quickly taking over Donghai City, along with the business of teahouses, restaurants, and Chu Pavilions.

The news spread quickly in the city, and a large number of people who had gathered in the palace square were also dispersed.

The old shopkeeper Qian Jin saw that there was something unusual about the crowd dispersed, and he was afraid of an accident, so he couldn't help but shudder and hurriedly returned to the inn.

Zhou Nanguan, the head of the Zhou family, did not wait for the people around him to disperse after the competition, so he scribbled his farewell to Zhao Zhe, the county commander, and hurried home.

And Zhao Zhe couldn't grasp the bottom of Zhou Nanguan, so he smiled politely at each other, which was in the past.

When Zhou Nanguan left, several people behind Zhao Zhe couldn't help but ask about this drastic ending, and no one expected that there would be an accident at this last moment.

But the chirping words made Zhao Zhe, who was already upset, angry, and he cursed irritably for a few words before letting a few people around him shut up.

Immediately, Zhao Zhe left the scene, and he wanted to hurry up to ask Cui Minglang and Gao Yan about the situation.

————

On the way back, Zhou Nanguan received the news of the accident of the Sui family, although the specific casualties are temporarily unknown, but judging from the news, the casualties are not small.

Therefore, after Sui Qi returned to his house, the Sui Mansion immediately closed its doors and did not accept anyone.

And Si Mingli and other members of the Star Moon God Sect who originally supported the Sui family also left immediately after the Cui family's people left.

Hearing such news, Zhou Nanguan began to worry about his family unconsciously.

He and Sui Qi had long known that the two major families were going to take this opportunity to attack them today, and Sui Qi's previous compromise also came from this.

Zhou Nanguan believed that if Sui Wenwu did not admit defeat in the ring, then there might be no Sui family in Donghai City now.

The Cui family targeted the Sui family, so the target of the Gao family in Qizhou must be his Zhou family.

Maybe the people who are far away from this place still don't know the background of these two families, but Zhou Nanguan knows it too well.

For a while, he was uneasy, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace, his palms were sweaty, for fear that something would happen at home.

When Zhou Nanguan hurriedly returned to Zhou's mansion, the gate of the mansion was closed, and from the outside, it seemed as if nothing had happened.

Even so, Zhou Nanguan's heart that had been hanging could not be let go at this moment.

After Zhou Nanguan simply sorted out his thoughts, he knocked on the door directly, and the door was opened after a while.

It was a young porter who came to open the door, and his originally frowning brows stretched out after seeing Zhou Nanguan.

"Sir, you're finally back." The young porter was a little overjoyed.

As the young porter spoke, he didn't forget to ask the other person next to him to hurry up and pass the news to the eldest lady who was picking up guests in the main hall.

After the young porter finished speaking, Zhou Nanguan said in a low tone, "Shengping, is something happening at home?"

While speaking, Zhou Nanguan and the others had already entered the house, and the young porter named Shengping closed the door and described Zhou Nanguan as he walked.

"Sir, more than an hour ago, bad people surrounded our house outside. The Great Elder and the Great Lady led us out to meet the enemy, but then a group of strangers appeared out of nowhere. Although I don't know each other, I can see that they are here to save our family. Those people haven't left yet, and the Grand Lady and a few elders are receiving them in the lobby."

Shengping described the previous events word by word, but Zhou Nanguan listened to the speed under his feet, but the speed did not decrease.

Just before Shengping finished speaking, Zhou Nanguan quickly rushed to the outside of the lobby with people.

Because of the distinguished guests, it can't be the woman's family that receives Wu Xun.

The two main seats at the top were vacant, the Great Elder sat on the second seat on the left, and the rest were Wu Xun and several elders of the Zhou family who could speak.

Opposite a few people were a group of people from Louwailou, and after Jiang Ning were several seniors of Louwailou, Han Zhongjing and Yun Qingyou

There are Tao Zhong who shirked and sat back.

Shen Guo and his uncle Han Zhongjing sat together, Su Yao and Dugu Nanqiao did not sit down, they both stood behind their parents.

The Zhou family never thought that they would have such a big face and invite so many big people.

Today, it was a situation where there was a fear of extermination, but now it has been resolved safely, how can the Zhou family not be grateful.

Although the Great Elder of the Zhou Family is Jiang Ning's elder, he doesn't dare to put on a show at this moment, and he is nothing with Jiang Ning's identity and status.

All the Great Elder could say was naturally some words of thanks, and he was also apologetic, because Jiang Ning was imprisoned.

However, Jiang Ning didn't feel much about this matter, so he just waved his hand so that he didn't need to care.

Jiang Ning also said bluntly, saying that it was not for the Zhou family, but to hinder the plans of the two families.

But having said that, the Zhou family was indeed the beneficiary of this matter, so the Great Elder was not allowed to follow suit.

After such a simple greeting for a while, Zhou Nanguan rushed back.

Seeing that his husband was safe and sound, the stone in Wu Xun's heart, who had been worried, finally landed, and the rest of the Zhou family also breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Zhou Nanguan.

In fact, Zhou Nanguan had already noticed several unfathomable breaths in the lobby before he walked in, and when Zhou Nanguan entered the lobby, everyone's eyes immediately looked over.

Although it was the first time to see each other, many people recognized Zhou Nanguan at first sight, because most of them were either seniors in the rivers and lakes or famous, how could he Zhou Nanguan not know him.

After Zhou Nanguan entered the lobby, he first expressed his gratitude to Jiang Ning, "Miss Jiang, my Zhou family is grateful for the rescue of Louwailou."

Jiang Ning heard that the words were still the same straightforward rhetoric as before, and Zhou Nanguan didn't feel anything, and he was still grateful.

And after meeting Jiang Ning, Zhou Nanguan greeted the rest of his predecessors one by one, and even Shen Guo did not fall behind.

After doing this until he had done so, he returned to sit down beside the Great Elder.

Seeing that the main lord was coming, Jiang Ning also got straight to the point and said, "Master Zhou, although we have solved your urgent needs today, it does not mean that the two major families will stop there, and what happens in the future depends on your own creation. In addition, the Cui family and the Gao family are now targeting us, and although they will not have any substantial impact on us, there will still be a slight obstacle, so we may need to harass the house for a day or two, or we may leave overnight tonight."

When Zhou Nanguan heard this, he immediately said, "Miss Jiang, don't worry, the future will be handled by our Zhou family. You can live in the house as you like, and I'll have someone clean up your room."

After that, Zhou Nanguan looked at Wu Xun, and when Wu Xun saw this, he immediately got up and took people to prepare.

After Zhou Nanguan finished speaking, Jiang Ning said again: "Master Zhou, Donghai City is the last reliance of the two major families, and it is also the transit place for them to contact the Nanliang Langyu Wang Clan, the Zhou family has a lot of influence in Donghai City, so I should also know some specific news."

What is this specific news Jiang Ning said vaguely, but Zhou Nanguan naturally understood.

He then did not hide it, and told everything he knew.

"Miss Jiang, as far as I know, the two families have a great connection with the Langyu Wang Clan, and they can even be connected to the point of becoming one. There are other reasons for this, but we don't know what they are. The defeat of the two major families is almost a foregone conclusion, but the hole card they struggled with in the end, one is in the Langyu Wang family, and the second is actually still in the Murong Xianbei Department outside Jibei Pass."

The news revealed in the first half of Zhou Nanguan's words was known to Jiang Ning, but she didn't know about Murong Xianbei. Z.br>

Jiang Ning said, "Regarding Murong Xianbei, can the Zhou family master elaborate."

Zhou Nanguan said: "Although the news that Murong Xianbei's department was stopped outside Jibei Pass has already spread, there are actually a small group of people from Murong Xianbei's department in Donghai City some time ago. Gao Yan and Cui Minglang only came to Donghai City not long ago, but before that, the two families had arranged many people here, and I bothered to hear about this news before."

Zhou Nanguan himself also had a guess about this matter

, but in front of Jiang Ning, he didn't draw a snake.

Murong Xianbei's part of the people is not many but not many, after being stopped outside Jibei Pass, there has actually been no movement, according to this point of view, this Murong Xianbei is likely to take advantage of the fact that the defenders of Jibei Pass are not paying attention to the detour south to help Cangnan City.

If this is the case, then the progress of Xue Cunxiao's troops, who are preparing to attack Yulou City and then enter Chentai, will be delayed again, and then the two major families will be able to take a breather for a while.

Now the two major families are stationed in Cangnan and Puzhou, each with two armies, and Hou Jing is stationed in Chentai, and the defenders of Chentai are the most and the most frontline.

The imperial army under the leadership of Dugu Chong, the general of the left guard, drove straight into the army to defeat the rebels from the front, and now the imperial court needs time, so only by quelling the rebellion in the east as soon as possible can the imperial court have more space to deal with the Rouran army in the fallen Jiuquan City.

Later, a group of people chatted with Zhou Nanguan in the lobby for a long time, mostly about the possible situation of the two families.

Zhou Nanguan knew that there were not many options on his side, so he tried his best to say everything he knew.

Jiang Ning is right, once Louwailou leaves, then the Zhou family will become a lamb to the slaughter and there is no room at all, so Zhou Nanguan hopes to let the Zhou family leave with them after he is released.

It's just that Jiang Ning didn't give a clear answer until the end.

After that, the group went back to their rooms.

Yun Qingyou didn't plan to stay here, and she still had something to deal with in the future, so she asked Dugu Nanqiao if she wanted to follow her or go with Shen Jing.

Dugu Nanqiao naturally hesitated, but how could the master not understand her thoughts.

This is an extra question, and no answer is needed.

Yun Qingyou finally handed over Dugu Nanqiao to Shen Qian, and let Shen Jing take good care of it, if she was hurt at all, Yun Qingyou said that she would definitely let Shen Guo lose another layer of skin.

The past scene is vivid, and how dare Shen not care, so he accepted it without half a complaint.

Han Zhongjing also had the same problem, so after saying a word to Shen Jing's ward, he planned to go back and take Shi Yu and Xiang'er over to Shen Jing.

Only Su Yao stood aside and looked at Shen Jing, Lin Wanzhao, Dugu Nanqiao and Jiang Ning were all very good girls, she hoped that they could be happy all the time.

Shen Guan actually knew that Su Yao came back this time because of him, but he still couldn't pass the level in his heart.

This should be a beautiful scenery, but the ice and snow are intolerable, and it covers the sincerity of love.

Tao Zhong sighed slightly, but didn't say much.
