Dingzhou City, the city government!

"My king is a thousand years old!"

All the generals, as well as Dingzhou generals and advisers, are all here.

"No courtesy, my life!" Dongfang Yu waved his hand casually, signaling everyone to stand up.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

All the ministers stood up one after another.

On the left are the generals and counselors of the Qin army.

On the right, naturally headed by Liu Xin, the Dingzhou general.

Liu Xin, Huang Fu, Yan Yan, Liu Kai, Wuzhong, Wei Tong, and all the ministers, big and small.

But to be honest, compared with the barren areas of Beiliang, there are really many civil servants and generals in Dingzhou.

Now! What does Dongfang Yu lack most? That is the civil servants and generals! If he could recruit all the civil servants and generals from Dingzhou to his command, then his power in Great Qin could skyrocket again.

For example, Yan Jun, Liu Kai, Wuzhong, and Wei Tong may not be able to serve as generals to guard one side, but if they are deputy generals or can guard a city or a city alone, they are more than enough.

Dongfang Yu's eyes swept over the Dingzhou nobles, and he slowly opened his mouth and said: "The Yan family, the Wu family, and the Liu family are all big families in Dingzhou."

"Now, the Liu family has chosen to surrender and has handed over all their power in Zhengzhou, as well as half of their family property. Their willingness to surrender fully shows their sincerity."

"The Yan family and the Wu family in Dingzhou, you don't need to remind me anymore!"

Dongfang Yu's gloomy face really made the two of them jump.

This King of Qin's face is just like the one in the legend. He can change at any time.

Gulu!

now! Their hearts felt as if they had fallen into an ice cellar, their hearts beating hard, even! Even breathing was extremely difficult.

Wu Zhong and Yan Jun took a step forward and announced: "Your Majesty, the Wu family's heart has long belonged to your Majesty! I, Wu Zhong, am also a person who understands current affairs, and I am willing to hand over half of the Wu family's assets to your Majesty."

"I solemnly represent the Wu family, and I am willing to hand over half of the Wu family's talents to the king."

When they said this, their eyes were firm and their faces did not change at all. It seems that he is completely determined and understands the righteousness, but he doesn’t know it! At this time, their hearts felt like they were bleeding.

That’s half of the family wealth!

The Wu family and the Yan family are big families in Dingzhou, and their families have accumulated a lot of wealth. Half of the family wealth is not a few hundred or a few thousand taels of silver, but tens of thousands.

How many years did it take to accumulate so much wealth?

but! The two of them are also shrewd people. As the saying goes, it is very cost-effective to spend money to eliminate disasters and exchange half of the village for the lives of hundreds of people in the family.

But in Dongfang Yu's view, the two men had donated half of their family wealth, and there was no change at all on their faces, which showed the depth of their family background. This must be a good trick. Do you really think that he, the King of Qin, was in vain?

"Half of the family wealth..."

Dongfang Yu's tone was cold, and every word was like a sharp knife hilt, piercing their hearts.

Wu Zhong and Yan Jun were so shrewd that they reacted instantly. King Qin...is he asking the lion to open his mouth?

The two were ready to be slaughtered.

"I guess it seems that half of the family wealth is not enough to buy the lives of the two clans!"

"Um……"

Half is not enough!

Wu Zhong's palms were filled with sweat, "Then the king decides, as much as you want!"

hey-hey!

This is what you said, I didn’t force you!

Dongfang Yu flashed a smirk in his heart, stretched out three fingers and waved them in front of their eyes, "I want three-quarters of the Wu family and Yan family's wealth!"

this……

Three-quarters, this has already shaken the foundation of the family? Is this going to cost these families their lives?

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty! Are you..." Wu Zhong and Yan Yan were both in a dilemma!

"Um?"

"Wu Zhong, have you regretted it? It was you who made the decision just now!" Dongfang Yu's tone gradually became colder.

"No...don't dare!"

Wu Zhong hesitated, then! There was a thought in my heart, "Okay, that's three-quarters."

What’s the point of asking for money when your life is gone?

He didn't dare to confront Dongfang Yu. The man in front of me could kill millions of Liao soldiers without blinking an eye, let alone from a mere aristocratic family. If the King of Qin wants to destroy these noble clans, he can lead a large army and directly destroy the noble clans. When the time comes! That would be a disaster of genocide!

hehe!

Dongfang Yu's serious face immediately revealed a smile, "That's right."

"Back off!"

The two of them did not dare to stay in the center of the mansion for more than a moment, and then they retreated back into the queue timidly.

After dealing with the two people, Dongfang Yu looked at Huang Fu again, and immediately became cold, "Huang Fu, I heard that you are in charge of Dingzhou's money and food, and handle Dingzhou's accounting and other major and minor affairs. And! I heard someone in the mansion said that this time You highly recommend resisting the royal army!"

Feeling Dongfang Yu's murderous gaze, Huang Fu was not afraid, but was filled with energy.

"I, Huang Fu, insist on fighting the Qin army to the death. Huang Fu wants to ask the King of Qin, if your hometown is invaded and you don't resist, isn't that the same as a traitor?"

"What a pity! Huang Fu is incompetent and can't solve Dingzhou's problems... Haha! In this way, Huang Fu has nothing to say. If the King of Qin wants to kill or behead him, please do as he pleases!"

Huangpao held his head high, directly disdainful of Dongfang Yu.

"Humph! How presumptuous! A scholar dares to be so disrespectful to the king." Hu Xiaoyue got angry and clenched her fists as big as casseroles.

"Hu Xiaoyue, don't be rude!" Dongfang Yudan said.

Only then did Hu Xiaoyue give up.

However, all the Dingzhou generals and generals around him lowered their heads and did not dare to look up at Dongfang Yu.

Everyone is sighing for Huang Fu, feeling that this time, Huang Fu is really dead.

"You are the third person who dares to be rude to Gu in the past few years!" Dongfang Yu's voice was long, and his tone conveyed dissatisfaction, but also seemed to contain appreciation.

Xu Meng, who was on the side, couldn't help but touch the bridge of his nose.

Yes, the first person who was rude to Dongfang Yu was Tian Ping; the second person was Xu Meng, and Huang Fu was the third person.

"However, I have seen your political achievements, but you are talented!" Dongfang Yu's attitude suddenly changed, giving people a sense of surprise, "Huang Fu, I will appoint you as the prime minister of the governor, and you will assist Bai Qi in the future. state."

Huang Fu was stunned, and the domineering look he had just now faded away in an instant.

The surrounding Dingzhou officials also looked confused.

This was not killed, but was reused.

"Your Majesty... Your Majesty..." Huang Fu was almost prepared for the fate of being killed, but it turned out! Fate seemed to have turned a corner for him.

"Why...are you unwilling?" Dongfang Yu stared at Huang Fu.

Huang Fu would be really stupid if he didn't bow.

If it were anyone else, he would have had his head chopped off with such fierce words, "I, Huang Fu, am willing to serve your Majesty."

The King of Qin is a wise king. If such a person does not help, then he is really blind.

certainly! The most shocked person was Bai Qi.
