Although Xuzhou City still maintains peace and stability on the surface, those who know the inside story understand that Xuzhou City is already falling apart internally, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is extremely dangerous.
He, Zhao Yu, was forced to come to Xuzhou to take up the post of Biejia by Tao Qianru. To be honest, he really didn't want to be in this position. However, since he promised to do something, he had to do it well. It's his Zhao Yu's temperament.
However, I originally turned my heart towards the bright moon, but the bright moon shines on the ditch.
Zhao Yu knew in his heart that it was not easy for everyone to maintain the smooth flow of government orders on the surface. Once it came to the enemy strategies and troop dispatching of the two armies, it was even more difficult.
In modern terms, the current situation makes both him and Zang Ba bald.
In the first month, the imperial court's delay in taking action against Xuzhou made him feel a little chilled. He really didn't understand that since Dong Zhuo was dead, there should be no one in the imperial court who could organize His Majesty Situ to send troops to Xuzhou.
In the end, there was no news about the imperial court's use of troops, and there was no edict from the emperor to grant rewards to Xuzhou to appease the people.
It was as if Xuzhou had suddenly become a land without an owner, and was abandoned here by the imperial court. All we could do was wait for the eager enemies to bite off the flesh bit by bit, but there was no place to even cry out in pain.
Nowadays, Zhao Yu naturally knows how big a force the Youzhou Army and Jingzhou Army are. He even understands that even if the imperial court sends troops here, it will be difficult to get any benefits from the two. He just thinks in his heart Just don't want to admit it.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh.
That's all, let's do our best to obey fate.
At this moment, the housekeeper came to send a message, saying that there was a young man who claimed to be a secret envoy sent by the imperial court and asked to see Zhao Yu.
Zhao Yu had a thought and asked his servants to invite him in quickly.
After a while, Qi Zhen entered the main hall under the leadership of the servants, and sat down with Zhao Yu as guest and host.
Qi Zhen did not talk nonsense. He was really afraid of the ancients' restraints, so he said: "The emperor has a secret order, please be patient and calm. Now that Mr. Tao Gongzu has passed away, I only hope that Mr. Zhao and Mr. Zang will work together." , to ensure the peace of Xuzhou City."
Zhao Yu just wanted to ask something, but Qi Zhen's eyes had already turned blood red, and huge spiritual power poured directly into Zhao Yu's mind along the pupils.
According to Wang Jianguo's words, you don't need to be too polite to them, make full use of your abilities, as long as you can achieve your goal, a black cat or a white cat is a good cat if it catches mice.
At that time, Qi Zhen was still a little bit dumbfounded. Now that she thought about it, it really saved her words. A problem that the Sharingan genjutsu could solve, it was better not to BB.
Zhao Yu's eyes were confused for a while, but he woke up after a moment, then stood up and bowed to Qi Zhen.
"Call the civil and military ministers together and gather at the governor's office in the morning three days later. We have something important to announce." Qi Zhen said calmly.
"As ordered." Zhao Yu said.
Qi Zhen nodded, thinking that it was easy.
After saying goodbye and leaving, Qi Zhen rushed to her next destination—General Zang Ba's house.
For two days, Qi Zhen went non-stop to and from the houses of various civil and military ministers, using different names, some in the name of Youzhou Army, some in the name of Jingzhou Army. Anyway, as long as he knocked on the doors of those people's houses, he would not say anything. It was said that a Sharingan illusion was thrown up, and all the officials who should be summoned were notified before the three-day deadline.
In the early morning of the day when Qi Zhen and Wang Jianguo agreed, the governor's mansion was overcrowded.
Since Tao Qian's death, Xuzhou Governor's Mansion has not been so lively for a long time.
The main reason is that all the officials have not been of the same mind, and no one has the ability to bring everyone together. Therefore, most of them have not seen each other since Tao Qian's death. It has been more than a month.
At this time, in the main hall, civil and military officials lined up on both sides. In the front row was Zhao Yu on one side and Zang Ba on the other. According to their official positions, they should stand in this position.
Everyone remained silent after entering the main hall, staring at the two ordinary men in civilian clothes at the front.
Qi Zhen and Wang Jianguo.
"Thank you for your hard work, gentlemen." Wang Jianguo said with a smile.
"Can you tell the truth?" Qi Zhen whispered.
"Isn't this just a small talk?" Wang Jianguo replied in a low voice.
"I think you all already know the purpose of the two of us coming here, which is to discuss the future direction of Xuzhou."
Wang Jianguo smiled and said to the people below, just like a leader giving a speech on stage.
The officials below responded one after another.
Qi Zhen used different names. These adults all thought that Qi Zhen and them were of the same mind, so there was no objection.
"I believe that you all want to save lives in Xuzhou, and also want to find a bright future for each of you. This is understandable, but no matter why, I, Xuzhou, will never forget this great righteousness in the world, and everything must be based on the foundation of my great Han Dynasty. Seriously, do you all agree?" Wang Jianguo then asked.
The officials all nodded in agreement, thinking that this gentleman was talking too much for the occasion.
"Since you have your heart set on my great Han heritage, I'm afraid it won't work if you do something that's like rebellion." Wang Jianguo's smile faded.
Most of the civil and military officials had their smiles frozen on their faces, feeling a little embarrassed.
Only the officials in Zhao Yu and Zang Ba's lineup still wore unhurried smiles and were confident.
"So I am Xuzhou..." Wang Jianguo's eyes slowly swept across the faces of these officials, and his voice was like the cold wind in winter.
"I can't have a surname of You or Jing. If I want a surname, I can only have a surname of Liu." He said.
Within a few words, the atmosphere completely cooled down.
Wang Jianguo looked at the angry faces of many people below, and whispered to Qi Zhen next to him: "Look, I just want to say hello. This makes people anxious, what should I do?"
Qi Zhen rolled her eyes at him and said, "Why are you pretending to be a good person like me because you were originally thinking about killing people here to establish your authority?"
Wang Jianguo laughed.
"In that case, I'm sorry that I'm on official business and can't accompany you anymore." An ordinary-looking official came out of the queue and said with clasped fists.
But there was no respect on his face, but anger.
He felt like he was being teased.
When they saw this man coming out, both Qi Zhen and Wang Jianguo showed a hint of amusement.
This person's name is Xiao Jian.
The two of them laughed at him not because of anything else, but because his name reminded people so much of his brother Xiao Yanzi, and his face didn't quite match his name, so there was some gap between them.
Historically, this man secretly communicated with Lu Bu, and was later slaughtered by Zang Ba.
As a supporter of Zhang Kai, Xiao Jian felt that this was a good time to share his worries and test others.
So he looked angry and prepared to leave the table in anger.
However, this play was destined to fail, because Wang Jianguo never thought about letting these double-minded people leave here.
boom!
Sha Ying was already lifted up in front of Wang Jianguo at some unknown time, and smoke was rising from the muzzle of the gun.
This crisp sound shocked all the officials present. They stared at the thing in Wang Jianguo's hand and froze in place.
Plop.
Xiao Jian's body fell to the ground, with a delicate little hole on his forehead, and blood was still pouring out.
Everyone was shocked and took a step back, leaving the body in the middle free, making Xiao Jian's death even more miserable.
"My lords, don't panic. As long as you are of one mind with us, we can still talk about the matter." Wang Jianguo said with a smile.
But no one can still laugh.
Everyone knew that Wang Jianguo was responsible for the murder and that he used the unknown weapon in his hand, but no one knew how he did it.
Even the first thought that pops up in many people's minds is black magic.
This time, it was Zuo Rong who came out of the queue. He cupped his fists and said, "Do you want to kill someone to establish your authority? Force me to submit?"
"What's your name? I don't quite recognize your word." Wang Jianguo scratched his forehead with the muzzle of his gun.
"Zuo, Yinze, you are uneducated." Qi Zhen reminded him in a low voice.
"Oh, yes, Zee Rong, right? I've read it as a lie before."
Wang Jianguo said suddenly, then he raised his gun and pulled the trigger.
boom!
Zuo Rong's dead body lay on the ground.
He was lying next to Xiao Jian, and the two of them had the same look of death.
"He's right. I'm just forcing you to submit. It doesn't matter if you don't agree to come forward." Wang Jianguo said carelessly.
Qi Zhen secretly shook her head and thought to herself, aren't they just bandits? How can this game be played like this?
The remaining officials fell silent.
"Aren't you afraid that if you kill too many people, Xuzhou will be in chaos? In the daily life of the people, who does not need these officials from the Yamen?"
Qi Zhen's voice suddenly sounded in Wang Jianguo's heart, and he used his mind to communicate with these words.
"You, you just think too much. What are we here to do? We are here to stir up trouble, not to appease the people. If they are not in chaos, how can we draw chestnuts from the fire." Wang Jianguo turned around and scolded Qi Zhen.
Qi Zhen shook her head helplessly.
"Is there more?!" Wang Jianguo shouted loudly.
No one answered, but someone took advantage of this moment to slowly move towards the door.
boom!
Another dead body fell to the ground, and Wang Jianguo's cursing voice sounded again: "Don't run away, I have a bad temper, but my eyes are not bad."
Well, this time everyone understood what these two people were doing, and finally understood that they had fallen into the enemy's trick. After being deceived into coming here, it would be difficult to leave now.
Mi Fang and Zhang Kai looked relatively calm, but their slightly panicked eyes still betrayed their psychology.
"Okay, everyone, come here and let my brother take a look one by one. As long as my brother says there is no problem, the adults will naturally be able to walk out of this hall unharmed." Wang Jianguo said.
"What if there is a problem?" said a general at the end.
