Since moving to Liangzhou County three years ago, Dongfang Mingfu has always gone home to eat.
He said that the food cooked by his wife was much more delicious than the food cooked by the county government cook, and that eating at home had a warmer atmosphere.
At least when Dongfang Xiaoyu was at home, Dongfang Mingfu ate three meals a day at home. If he couldn't spare the time, he would ask his maid to deliver meals to the Yamen.
I heard from Xiaoyu's mother that Dongfang Mingfu had changed a month ago. Not only did he rarely eat at home and refused to let the maid deliver meals, but he often did not go home because of his busy work schedule.
Xiaoyu's mother felt strange. She thought Dongfang Mingfu had a foreign wife outside, and she secretly investigated it.
It turned out that Dongfang Mingfu did stay overnight in the Yamen and never came out.
Coupled with the recent frequent turmoil and various chaotic organizations causing trouble, there is a food shortage in the county, so it is understandable that the Yamen is extremely busy.
Xiaoyu's mother also wrote to Xiaoyu to complain about this matter.
Now that I think about it, I am afraid that the county government office was infiltrated by people from Tianmeng Pavilion at least a month ago, and then they infiltrated and controlled the main officials one by one.
The situation of the county magistrate is probably not optimistic. Only the chief arrester Wang Yuanbai, who has spiritual level strength and was once a subordinate of the powerful general Xu Jin, has not been controlled and infiltrated yet.
"So, Chief Catcher Wang Yuanbai is the only reliable person in the county?"
Pei Mengqing crossed her legs, pinched her chin with her fingers, and frowned.
"I'm afraid that the operation of the county is entirely supported by Wang Yuanbai, so that some decrees can be implemented reluctantly."
Juju also lowered his head, looking like a "cat in trouble".
"Not only that, if you think about it elsewhere, such a big thing has happened in the county. The main leadership team in the county are all controlled by people from Tianmeng Pavilion. Why doesn't Wang Yuanbai report it to his superiors? If nothing else, General Xu Jin is very nostalgic. As long as one Once the letter is passed, General Xu Jin will definitely send someone to rescue him."
Xiaori, who was lying on the table, twisted her cute little face and curled her tail on one side of her body.
Dongfang Xiaoyu also understood the current situation and should have followed up to make suggestions. However, because her father may have been killed, she no longer had the mind or ability to think about countermeasures. She could only listen to Pei Mengqing and the two big oranges discussing.
"It has something to do with the county road being cut off," Pei Mengqing said.
The county roads were cut off, and the county government did not recruit civilians to clear them. It did not take into account the interests of the wealthy businessmen in the county and allowed the county roads to be blocked one by one. The reason should be that the main figures in the county government had already been controlled.
Although the chief arrester, Wang Yuanbai, could barely maintain the affairs of the county, after all, he was a martial artist and had no experience in managing the affairs of the county. Faced with the rounds of organizing parades and various troubles, he was already exhausted.
Not only that, Wang Yuanbai on Fengzhang Road and Yuanshan Road should have sent his men to catch the heads to try to investigate the situation.
Then the matter has not been passed on. I am afraid that those two roads are also guarded by people from Tianmeng Pavilion, or like the situation on Lianggu Road, they are guarded by evil spirits. As long as someone passes by, they will possess them and drain their body energy, making people Turned into a shriveled corpse.
As for why Yingchuan Road was blocked in the end, we still haven’t seen the situation yet, which is easy to understand.
If you want to seamlessly complete such a big conspiracy to destroy the county, you must not simply and crudely cut off the county road.
There are always “agreed time limits” requirements for documents being passed back and forth among the surrounding merchants, as well as the government, other organizations, and chambers of commerce.
If all routes are simply and rudely blocked and Liangzhou County is turned into an island within the county, then people outside Liangzhou County will definitely notice that something is wrong and report it to the county magistrate level. I am afraid that Tianmeng Pavilion will soon be noticed. conspiracy.
After all, the matter in Xieliang County came first, and the Zhou Dynasty had already informed all states, counties and counties about the tragedy in Xieliang County.
Only by slowly and relatively rationally blocking county roads, gradually reducing communication with the outside world, and boiling frogs in warm water can no clues be leaked.
Among them, Yingchuan Road is considered the closest link between Liangzhou County and the outside world.
There are many aristocratic families in Yingchuan County, and there are countless wealthy businessmen. Even Xiangcheng, which is close to Liangzhou County, is far richer than Liangzhou County.
At least 40% of Liangzhou County's economic development depends on the business transactions of wealthy merchants in Xiangcheng. It is the least likely to be cut off, so it is put last.
In other words, when Yingchuan Road is also blocked, it means that Tianmeng Pavilion's plan is completed and will start immediately.
"It is unknown how many officials, wealthy businessmen, ordinary people and even homeless people in the county are controlled by Tianmeng Pavilion and have become their tools and informants. However, this is definitely a terrifying number, so from now on, we are outside, Nothing related can be discussed.”
Pei Mengqing first put forward this principle to prevent herself and others from being blamed by the people of Tianmeng Pavilion before they figured out a way.
"Yeah, that makes sense." Juju agreed.
Xiaori’s additional thoughts:
"Brother Pei, you have brought people from the Dark Night Chaos into the situation. Although I don't know where those guys are now, after all, the profit division you negotiated with them is completely false. When the two parties confront each other, Tianmeng Pavilion and the Dark Night Chaos will People will definitely know that they have been fooled and understand that there are still third-party forces in Liangzhou County.
“It’s just that they don’t know our existence yet, and they might guess that we are the ones from the Suppression Cluster or the Gate of Nothingness.
"I think that in order to complete the plan and prevent a third party from disrupting the situation, Tianmeng Pavilion will bite the bullet and continue to cooperate with the people of the Night Chaos in accordance with the agreement. When the two parties join forces, it will probably be more difficult."
Pei Mengqing had considered this possibility when she pretended to be from Tianmeng Pavilion to trick Che Yongfu:
"I have thought about this too, but these two families are cunning people who often work in the gutter. They will never cooperate steadily, and they will never trust each other. They may be waiting to attack each other at any time.
"So as long as we use the concealment talisman again, we find opportunities to act secretly, kill the Dark Night Chaos or the lone personnel of Tianmeng Pavilion, cause the two families to attack each other, and reduce their trust to the lowest level.
"The plan to destroy the county was led by people from Tianmeng Pavilion, so in addition to muddying the waters, we also have to stand on the side of the Dark Night Chaos, instigating and helping to kill the people of Tianmeng Pavilion, but not to annihilate them all, but to Aim to sabotage the plan.
"As long as the people in Tianmeng Pavilion are unable to complete the plan to destroy the county, and the two families lose trust, neither side will be able to continue the matter. They will definitely be wary of each other and attack each other."
Xiaori nodded, indicating that Pei Mengqing's plan was feasible:
"Since Lianggu Road is still in our hands and the people in Tianmeng Pavilion don't know the situation, we just use this road as a breakthrough to pass on the news."
Hearing this, Pei Mengqing suddenly stood up:
"No, something is wrong!"
"What's wrong?" Ju Ju asked curiously.
"Lianggu Road is occupied by evil spirits, and Miss Xiaoyu returns home in front of everyone. Considering the situation of the Dongfang family and Xiaoyu's father, how can the people in Tianmeng Pavilion not get the news?"
I’m afraid that the people in Tianmeng Pavilion have already known about the elimination of the evil spirits on Lianggu Road!
