There was another strange silence in the room, and even Murong Jing withdrew her hand uncomfortably. This was the first time Mu Qing called her this, but it was in a calm and gentle tone as if he had called her many times.
Mu Qing only had Murong Jing in his eyes, and asked in surprise: "What's wrong?" Murong Jing looked at him, smiled softly, and said: "It's nothing. If Bai Hao didn't leave another clone in advance, then he is indeed dead, and he is dead." It must be his true form." Dugu Wei was sitting in the corner, and his incompatibility with this room became more and more obvious. Chen Zhuo changed the topic appropriately and said: "As Mrs. Wang said just now, Bai Hao's Death, for us, is just the beginning, there are still many things waiting for us... to discuss." Mu Qing and Murong Jing looked at each other and saw their respective frowns.
From Hidden Valley to Suzaku City, such discussions have been carried out several times, but the previous times were nothing more than pre-plans, and now I am afraid it will really affect the layout of Suzaku City.
Mu Qing thought of a lot at this moment, and finally he remembered someone who surprised him.
Ge Shan once used cruel facts to tell him the truth when human resources are weak. Although there is still some rejection in his heart, he is not holding on to the freedom he wants.
Seeing Mu Qing's thoughtful expression, Chen Zhuo looked at Murong Jing and said, "There is a problem that cannot be delayed and must be solved as soon as possible."
"Suzaku City is a large city with a population of over one million. Who the city lord is may not matter to most ordinary people, but whether there is a city lord or not will definitely affect the stability of their lives."
"And we in Hidden Valley do not want a city that is falling apart or even riddled with holes. Therefore, the candidate for the city leader must be determined as soon as possible." Murong Jing nodded and asked seriously: "Shopkeeper Chen, have you talked to everyone in the city these days? Those forces have more contacts. Do you have a candidate that you support? Do they have a candidate that they support?" Chen Zhuo glanced at Mu Qing deliberately, then sat upright and said: "To be honest, before I came here, I was able to communicate with these forces. The people who made the decision had an exchange. They didn't mean what they said, but they were quite hopeful that Xing Fei, the commander-in-chief of the Guards, could temporarily become the Lord of Suzaku City. After the city was truly stabilized, someone from our Hidden Valley could take over. .”
"Xing Fei can indeed convince the crowd, but what they mean is that they are still waiting to see if we can block the counterattack from Baidi City?" Wang Yeqing sat in a demure posture, with his eyebrows slightly lowered as he spoke, looking at the people under his knees. The futon, if the matter in question were not too tacky, would have represented a scene of quiet time and beautiful women.
Chen Zhuo moved slightly and turned towards Wang Ye Qing. He nodded and said seriously: "The reason why these families can survive forever is because they are very capable of adapting to the current situation. If we want them to really worship us, we really need to show our strength." We have to defend Suzaku City. But before that, they have promised me that they will not obstruct my orders from Hidden Valley." Murong Jing frowned slightly and said, "I heard that the White Emperor invited people from the Gu family. If that's true... "Murong Jing paused for a moment. If this is really the case, the ambition of Qing Long and White Tiger will be dead in his belly.
Chen Zhuo shook his head and said: "The worst case scenario is that we and the Gu family are at odds with each other in life and death, but before that, there are still many choices. It can be said that if we can truly control Suzaku before they come to Suzaku City, The city will leave us with much more room for choice. This is also an important reason why I come to disturb you so late." At this time, Dugu Wei raised his eyes and took a serious look at Chen Zhuo. All along, he thought that Chen Zhuo Zhuo did this just to seize more resources, but now, when he has considered everyone's front, it is easy to say whether Chen Zhuo also has his own ambitions, and this ambition may be different from Qinglong's in many places. There is some overlap.
Wang Yeqing agreed with Chen Zhuo's opinion and suggested: "The choice of city master is the first thing that should be determined. Only in this way can the most suitable team be built around the city master. Since shopkeeper Chen mentioned Xing Fei, can he be invited here? , let’s try to decide this matter once and for all?” Chen Zhuo nodded with a smile, turned his eyes, and saw that everyone did not mention the candidate for Hidden Valley. He pondered for a moment, but took the initiative to say: “I have asked Li to bear the burden. I went to deliver the letter. Although the location has not yet been determined, I think three days later, after our sincere talks from all parties, Suzaku City should have its new city lord." Seeing Wang Yeqing also fell silent, Chen Zhuo frowned slightly, with a premonition Realizing that some things were not going as smoothly as expected, he said: "Whether someone from the Gu family will come and when will they come has become the biggest hidden danger. I have made it very clear about the urgency of time. In my opinion, It would be best to confirm the position of city lord tomorrow. The reason why the negotiation time is set for three days is actually a problem on our side." Murong Jing found that she heard a hint of complaint in Chen Zhuo's words, Somewhat funny, he said: "Fat Chen, there are just a few people here, don't talk in circles. Do you want to be the city leader? You are a well-rounded person who can deal with all parties, so you are a good candidate for the city leader. How about we push you out." "The smile on Chen Zhuo's face spread like a large daisy. He spent the night on his upper body and no longer cared about how ugly his bloated sitting posture was. He laughed at himself: "I still have self-awareness. Let's choose Xing Fei for the city master. He said, first of all, you have to convince the crowd. No matter where you are, everyone will not frown immediately when you bring it up. I already have a plan. After the position of city lord is confirmed, I can take care of this. A businessman in a city." Murong Jing rolled her eyes at Chen Zhuo, feeling the silence of the people around her, and then looked at Wang Yeqing who had calmed down, smiled slightly, and then also became quiet.
Before today, she, Huaifenghua, and Wang Yeqing actually supported Mu Qing to become the city lord. There were many benefits. First of all, when Mu Qing became the city lord, although he was still subordinate to Hidden Valley, But as his status rises, Mu Qing will gain more say and have the buffer space for Xu Tuzhi.
For Murong Jing, with this identity, Mu Qing's relationship with Hidden Valley will not immediately enter into a conflict of separation. This is also a hidden worry that she had long ago.
Especially after Liu Yueshan and the others were arrested, Murong Jing discovered that there were many people around Mu Qing who needed protection.
Although Mu Qing is already strong, if there is a serious conflict with Hidden Valley, Hidden Valley may not deal with Mu Qing first, but the people around Mu Qing. In this case, Mu Qing and Hidden Valley will eventually It will lead to a fight to the death.
