The little Gangyang City also had a somewhat unpredictable posture, which made Zhuge Chen, who had to sit on the chair, smile deeply, and then stretched his waist and lay lazily on the table.

"The sword-wielding man just now should be the one sent by the Dengfeng Sect to make peace with you, right?" Zhuge Chen, who was really annoyed by the corpse on the ground, stretched out a finger, and the sword qi swept out of his sleeves, so that the corpse was eaten away: "I just heard outside that the Dengfeng Sect can let you live, provided that you can't stab the matter to the City Lord's Mansion, why?"

The rich merchant shook his head with a wry smile and said, "How can I know what these big people think? However, in Gangyang City, there are often rumors that the City Lord's Mansion and the Dengfeng Sect are not in agreement. It's just that this is just speculation, and it has never been confirmed. And if it's normal, the friendship between this house and one sect should be quite good. When the city lord opened the mansion, the Dengfeng Sect specially sent people to congratulate him, and it is said that even the sect master appeared in the city lord's mansion that night and had a good time with the city lord. The only thing that can be counted as an unhappy parting between these two forces is that a disciple of the Dengfeng Sect once killed a family in Gangyang City overnight and was sentenced to Ling Chi by the City Lord's Mansion. However, the Dengfeng Sect didn't say anything about it, just a disciple, and he didn't have high hopes from the sect, so there was no need to tear his face. ”

After Zhuge Chen heard this, he nodded slightly. If he said that, he couldn't guess what was the trigger for this series of things. Now in his heart, there are a lot of contexts, but there are too many loopholes in it. It's like a pedestrian going up a mountain without following the road, he is asking for hardship. What's more, as an outsider, Zhuge Chen is not good at speculating on other people's thoughts. It's okay to say if you're in the game, as long as you're willing to watch and think more, you can always find a way to break the game.

Now all he could think of was that the Dengfeng Sect wanted to tear the City Lord's Mansion from this position, and then sit on it himself. When the time comes, whether it is in Gangyang City or outside Gangyang City, he will be able to say the same. Needless to say, the money that comes into the accounts every year is not the same as prestige alone.

With a yawn, Zhuge Chen got up and walked outside the door, he stood in the moonlight, not knowing what he was thinking. The rich businessman also wanted to come out, but Zhuge Chen said that it was good to stay in the house. He had already left his Gap Flying Sword on the chair he was sitting on, and even if a cultivator from the peak realm of Heavenly Destiny came to take the life of a wealthy merchant, he would be delayed by the gap for at least a stick of incense. And at this time, as long as Zhuge Chen is still in the city, he must have time to feel it.

He was alone, walking on the tree-lined path, surrounded by insects, because he was carrying an oil lamp in his hand, and there were often flying insects flying in front of his eyes, and some even lying on his white clothes. As a cyan halo spread, the sword qi protected the white clothes in it. He walked to the backyard, wanting to know how many innocent people were buried in the dry well.

Sure enough, the backyard was heavily guarded, which made Zhuge Chen even more sure that eighty percent of the cats in this mansion were hidden in the dry well. It may not have much to do with it, but it can definitely be regarded as a key part of the entire plan of the Ascending Peak Sect.

Standing behind the gate of the backyard, before Zhuge Chen walked in, he heard a woman's voice from inside: "Wanyan, you said that we did this, is it considered a risk? If the matter is really revealed, it will be difficult to solve the problem of setting yourself on fire." ”

"Desperate to take a risk!" With a sneer, the man with the surname of the whole face spoke: "Don't say that a young elder has died in the Dengfeng Sect, even if it is their young sect master who dies, you have to endure it for me and help take care of the aftermath." The only thing I am afraid of is that the City Lord's Mansion will take this matter seriously, and I am blessed to the heart, knowing that this private visit to my micro-service is aimed at them. ”

"It's just a city lord, it's worth taking you so seriously? If you look for me, you should kill it, how can you have the slightest affection?" the woman whispered.

And Zhuge Chen is no longer hiding behind the door at this moment, but revealing half of his body, just enough to see everything that happened in the backyard. At this moment, the woman was leaning against the man named Wanyan, raising her head and looking shy.

With Zhuge Chen's understanding of the Yunmeng royal family, he knew in his heart that their surname was Wanyan. But if the adulterer's surname is perfect, why would he attack a young elder of the Ascending Peak Sect? Could it be that the drunkard does not mean to drink, and all the purpose is to bring down the city lord of Gangyang City? Bai Yi frowned, guessing more in his heart, so he had to continue listening. Anyway, as long as the other party is willing to say, there is nothing that cannot be guessed. Moreover, he has already hidden his body and hid in the small world of incarnate things, and if the other party wants to find him, it will be difficult to reach the sky.

Wan Yan continued: "You don't understand this, because you are a person from a city near Gangyang City, and naturally there is no small stake in a city. Speaking of your hometown city alone, how could there have been heroes who dared to disobey the lord of this city? Although Gangyang City is small, not even one-tenth of the Yunmeng Imperial Capital, its status can even be said to be half of the imperial capital. Not counting the imperial capital, in addition to the sea area adjacent to the north, in charge of the sea city of thousands of ferries by virtue of its geographical advantages, and the south is adjacent to countless mountains, inexhaustible resources, and the Qinqing City, which is unique for a while, the next is the Gangyang City that occupies the people. The city lords of the first two cities, although they have a solid family, know how to please the royal family, and they have not violated taboos, so they are quite valued by my royal brother. But the city lord of Gangyang City is not so knowledgeable. He is a city lord, so he honestly does his own thing, where can he be allowed to be a good man? Besides, does he want to be the official of the feudal territory when he does this? He even said...... Want to stand on your own?"

As soon as these words came out, where did the woman beside Wan Yan dare to speak? These things can actually be regarded as the inside story of the Yunmeng royal family.

Why was Yunmeng established? Even though it is covered up in the history books, people with a heart can still deduce the turmoil of those years from between the lines. And the remaining three dynasties are known to everyone, so the secret has long been no longer a secret. It's just that no one in Yunmeng dares to joke about these things, and if it is known, they will be imprisoned or even beheaded. Before Yunmeng, the dynasty across the sea and mountains was actually called Dagang, and the emperor of Yunmeng was a feudal official of Dagang. Because he was dissatisfied with the status quo, he put on a yellow robe and sat on the dragon chair in one fell swoop. Therefore, Yunmeng is very precautionary against the matter of sealing the territory. This official position, which is extremely common in Dayan Dashang, is not unprecedented, but often when an official sits in this position, it already means that he has been sentenced to death.

Jiangnan fool is the name of the current emperor of Dashang for Yunmeng. Since he has chosen to appoint, why don't he believe it? It is no wonder that Yunmeng sits on such a rich land, but it is still not as strong as the two countries in terms of national strength.

"If it is an ordinary city, where do you need me to come in person, arrange for a letter, arrange to enter the imperial capital, and put it into the prison to wait for death. But only these three cities must not use such radical methods. If the city lord chooses to die and break the net, the royal family will lose money!" The man sighed and continued: "It's just that I'm suffering, I have to come to this place step by step, it's really exhausting." ”

The woman was beside him, and she became petty: "According to what Wanyan said, I am also part of your plan? ”

Wan Yan laughed and said, "How can I really like you, so I will choose to take this as the first step." Otherwise, there are many families in Gangyang City, just pick one at random. But the rich merchant was indeed difficult, and it was clear that he was going to take the matter to the city lord's mansion. Fortunately, I was the first to notice that I had already sent someone to talk to him. If he agrees to come down, everything will naturally be easy to say, and it is better to go away from now on and never come back. But if you don't know how to be interested, you will kill it. Saying that I know a young cultivator with an extremely high realm is just a rhetoric to scare me. It's ridiculous that there really are such characters, and they can look down on your stinky money. ”

As he spoke, he saw a black mist rise at Wan Yan's feet, and then a masked assassin walked out of it, he wanted to whisper something to Wan Yan, but he didn't expect the man to frown and say, "It's good to say anything straight, there are no outsiders here." ”

After hearing this, the woman smiled shyly, and her hands holding Wanyan tightened.

"Lord Wang, the man you sent...... Seems to be dead. We assassins all have a long-lived lamp, the lamp is on, and the lamp is extinguished. The assassin knelt down and said, "Could it be that someone from the City Lord's Mansion has already noticed something abnormal?"

"This can't be!" The true identity of the prince who is a noble prince of Yunmeng said in a cold voice: "If the City Lord's Mansion is clear, he will definitely come with me to meet and dismantle the move, it is impossible to just attack an assassin." Could it be that the young cultivator he knew, as the rich merchant said, had made a move? Hurry up and send someone to investigate, and as soon as there is news, he will come and inform me!"

Hearing this, the Assassin walked back into the black fog and disappeared in an instant. And the prince stood in place, squinting his eyes, staring out of the gate. Of course, he didn't see Zhuge Chen, but just followed his line of sight, where the lights were bright, and it was the City Lord's Mansion who was feasting on guests at this moment.
