485 Visit Zhao Hongdong, the lord of the city
The tragic incident that happened in Bishui Villa caused a great shock in the entire Celestial Star Empire, and the other six cities, including the royal family, all sent condolences, but because of the strength of the Qingcang Continent, there were not too many people to guess the reason behind it, but most of them thought that Bishui Villa had offended a powerful enemy!
The most important thing is the death of Feng Kaiming, the city lord of Kaiyang City, which made the other six city lords a little solemn, and they each inquired about its deeper reasons.
In the blink of an eye, three days have passed, and Bishui Villa has completely returned to normal under the concerted efforts of everyone, and what is surprising is that Wu Tian has comprehended with the help of the previous successive battles, and has successfully broken through to the fourth-order Martial Emperor, and with the personal guidance of Xie Zhenghua and Wen Renyan, Wu Tian has become the existence of the peak of the fourth-order Martial Emperor, and he is only one step away from the fifth-order Martial Emperor.
And the others have also made their own gains, which is a blessing in misfortune!
On this day, outside the gate of the Zhao Mansion where Zhao Hongdong, the deputy city lord of Kaiyang City, was located, Shui Binglian and Meng'er were accompanied by Wu Tian's side, and Xu Da, who had successfully broken through to the first-order Martial Emperor, followed behind the three of them with a cold face, like a bodyguard!
“zhanzhu!”
The four guards at the gate stepped forward and shouted, "The deputy city lord has an order, and no outsiders are allowed to approach!"
"Order?"
Hearing this, Wu Tian couldn't help but sneer, "Go and inform Deputy City Lord Zhao, just say that Wu Tian is here!"
"zhanzhu, don't get close!"
The four guards were unmoved, shouting, "One more step, don't blame us for making a move!"
"Look for death!"
His eyes were cold, and Wu Tian said coldly, "Xiaoda, break their legs!"
"Yes, young master!"
Xu Da responded, and then only saw a blood-colored light flash, and the eight legs of the four people in front of him were all broken, and the miserable howl and blood spread into one, which immediately caused a commotion in the Zhao Mansion in front of him.
"Let's go, let's go in!"
Wu Tian didn't let these four people go directly into it, but after a while, they were surrounded by the guards in the Zhao Mansion, holding weapons one by one, as if they were going to kill Wu Tian and them on the spot......
"Who dares to make trouble with me?"
Just as everyone was about to make a move, Zhao Hongdong walked out of it quickly......
But when he noticed Wu Tian and Shui Binglian's faces, his solemn expression suddenly became a little bitter and helpless, and he waved his hand to drink back the guards around him, Zhao Hongdong smiled bitterly, "Tianshao, Miss Shui, why are you here?"
"Deputy City Lord Zhao, can you find a place to talk?" Wu Tian glanced around briefly, pointed to the small pavilion not far away, and said, "Shall we go there?"
"This ......"
Zhao Hongdong's face was slightly pale, and after hesitating for a moment, he nodded and said, "Okay, please!"
This pavilion was built on top of an artificial lake, and after instructing his subordinates to bring some fruit and refreshments, Zhao Hongdong drove the irrelevant guards away, and said to Wu Tiandao with a wry smile, "Tianshao, you don't want to kill me, right?" Although Feng Kaiming usually seems to be very close to me, he actually doesn't have too many deep friendships!"
Anyway, this Zhao Hongdong is a second-order martial emperor, but now in the face of Wu Tian and others, he doesn't dare to take the slightest shelf!
Although there is a lot of controversy in the outside world about Feng Kaiming's death, Zhao Hongdong understands that it must be inseparable from these people in front of him!
He had also heard a little about the City Lord's Mansion and Bishui Villa, so he had only ordered the guards to close the gate of the mansion in the past few days, and except for some necessary visitors, no one else was there!
"Deputy City Lord Zhao rest assured!"
Seeing Zhao Hongdong's appearance, Wu Tian waved his hand and said, "If we were going to kill you, we wouldn't have come to visit you so openly! By the way, you shouldn't blame me for killing your doordogs, right?"
"Don't blame it, don't blame ......"
Zhao Hongdong hurriedly shook his head, and then said with a wry smile, "I don't know what you are doing when you come here that day?"
"Actually, it's not too big!"
Wu Tian replied slowly, "I believe that Deputy City Lord Zhao also knows that Feng Kaiming, the City Lord, has died at the hands of those lawless people, I am thinking that Kaiyang City cannot be left without an owner for a day, right?
"Gurgle......
Suddenly hearing Wu Tian's words, Zhao Hongdong's heart trembled, and he said with a complicated face, "Please say it clearly, my old Zhao is dull-minded, and I really don't know what you mean by saying this!"
"Huh...... There's no need to say some secret words in front of the Ming people, right?"
Wu Tian smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip, "Hmm...... Good tea!"
"Yes, that's good! If Tianshao likes it, then I'll have someone pack a few pounds for you to take away!"
Zhao Hongdong almost didn't catch his breath, and laughed with him, "Tianshao, don't go around in circles! I think you came to me this time, I'm afraid you have another purpose, right?"
"Well, if that's the case, then I'll make it clear!"
Wu Tian nodded, his eyes were firmly on Zhao Hongdong, and he said in a deep voice, "I don't know if Deputy City Lord Zhao is interested in the position of this city lord?"
"The Castle Lord's Position ......"
Wu Tian's words once again made Zhao Hongdong's face pale, and he said tentatively in a low voice, "What does Tianshao mean, do you want Lao Zhao and me to be the city lord?" However, Tianshao, you should also know that the position of the city lord has always been determined by Bixia himself, Lao Zhao, I don't dare to figure out the holy will without permission!"
"Huh, huh?"
Wu Tian raised his eyebrows, "The deputy city lord of Zhao doesn't have that mind!
Saying that, Wu Tian really got up and prepared to leave, Zhao Hongdong's face suddenly became anxious, and he hurriedly said, "The sky is small and slow......"
"Anything else?"
Wu Tian stopped and turned around and smiled, "Could it be that Deputy City Lord Zhao plans to forcibly leave us here?"
"No, no...... I didn't mean that!"
Zhao Hongdong hurriedly shook his head, frowned slightly, and said, "Tianshao, what you just said is true?"
"Naturally!"
Wu Tian sat down again, personally picked up two pieces of pastry and fed them to Meng'er and Shui Binglian's mouths respectively, Meng'er was okay and accepted it very generously, while Shui Binglian's face was slightly red, as if she was not used to being so affectionate with Wu Tian in front of people, but at Wu Tian's insistence, she finally opened her cherry lips and took the pastry in her mouth.
Wu Tian's actions made Zhao Hongdong anxious in his eyes, but he didn't dare to urge, and his expression was extremely helpless.
Finally, Wu Tian said slowly, "If Deputy City Lord Zhao has this thought, then I can tell Bixia to ask him to make an order, I believe that within seven days, Deputy City Lord Zhao's word 'deputy' in this can be canceled!"
"Then I don't know what Tianshao wants?" Zhao Hongdong did not agree immediately, there is no free lunch in the world, everyone understands this truth.
"Hehe, City Lord Zhao is an understanding person!"
Wu Tian deliberately covered up the word 'deputy', and said with a faint smile, "I only have one request! My Uncle Shui is still in a coma, but he will wake up in two days at the latest! I want to find a position for my Uncle Shui! As long as the city lord Zhao succeeds in taking office, will the position of the deputy city lord be vacant?"
"Tianshao means that he wants Brother Shui to serve as the deputy city lord?"
The thought in Zhao Hongdong's mind turned sharply, but a touch of helplessness flashed in his eyes, "Come, Tianshao wants Lao Zhao to be a puppet city lord!"
Yes, once Shui Zheng is the deputy city lord, with Bishui Villa behind him, coupled with Wu Tian's status, Zhao Hongdong's position as the city lord may be taken off at any time, and Shui Zheng will be the real leader in Kaiyang City!
Zhao Hongdong has been able to be in the position of deputy city lord for so long, and this truth can also be quickly figured out!
"No, not a puppet!"
Wu Tian shook his head with a smile and said, "I only need Uncle Shui to have that position, everything in Kaiyang City is still up to you, but the two of you will discuss it in major matters! My Uncle Shui will always live in Bishui Villa, and it will not have any impact on your management, City Lord Zhao!"
Wu Tian's words made Zhao Hongdong silent for a while, and the atmosphere in the pavilion was calm, but Wu Tian didn't care at all and still held pastries for Meng'er and Shui Binglian, sometimes rippling shallow to the lake, sometimes smelling the charming fragrance in the air, he didn't mean to be in a hurry.
On the other hand, Zhao Hongdong had a hesitant and complicated expression, raising his eyes from time to time to look at Wu Tian's lazy appearance, and smiled bitterly in his heart, he understood that things were not as simple as Wu Tian said.
But can he disagree? I'm afraid Feng Kaiming is an example!
After thinking for a long time, Zhao Hongdong suddenly raised his head, gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, Tianshao, I agreed! In the future, please take care of Tianshao!"
"Hehe, since that's the case, then congratulations to City Lord Zhao!"
Wu Tian got up and smiled, "From now on, we will be our own people, and I will not politely call you 'Lao Zhao', how about it?"
"Naturally, that's natural!" Zhao Hongdong smiled a little helplessly, but from his eyes, Wu Tian could find a kind of fine light, which was the light of ambition!
I'm not afraid of ambitious people, I'm afraid that I can't control it!
Wu Tian is convinced that he can smoothly control everything about Zhao Hongdong, and he has this confidence!
Under Zhao Hongdong's personal send-off, Wu Tian and the others left the Zhao Mansion, and on the way, Meng'er tilted his head in confusion and asked, "Brother, I still don't understand it!" Since you want to master Kaiyang City, why don't you just let Uncle Shui directly become the city lord? This Zhao Hongdong is an ambitious person, what if his shili expansion is uncontrolled?"
"Only ambitious people can do things well!"
Wu Tian smiled and gently rubbed Meng'er's hair, and said slowly, "As for Uncle Shui, the so-called Mu Xiu will be destroyed by Lin Feng! Feng Kaiming's death and the tragic incident of Bishui Villa have made Kaiyang City the object of countless shili's attention!"
"We pushed Zhao Hongdong to the front desk, just let him give us shelter from the wind and rain!"
Wu Tian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "Uncle Shui only needs to stand behind the scenes and control everything!" I will replace a quarter of the guards of the City Lord's Mansion with people from Bishui Villa, and the Bloody Hand Organization will also set up a branch here to assist Uncle Shui with all its might!"
"As for Zhao Hongdong, ......"
Speaking of this, Wu Tian couldn't help but glance back at Zhao Mansion, and said with a cold glint in his eyes, "If he has the best knowledge, otherwise, he can be completely killed in an instant!!"
