Du Biao's face was ashen: "This, this, this...doesn't this turtle grandson not want to live? Check for me and find those assassins! I, the Baiya Army, must give Brother Liu an explanation!"
Liu Zheng smiled bitterly and shook his head: "Don't go, it's useless."
Du Biao didn't believe it.
But when half an hour passed and his men came to report, the assassins suddenly disappeared from Baiya City and were never found again!
Du Biao's face was livid, he got angry and gritted his teeth: "This is Cheng Jiang..."
Liu Zheng shook his head and dissuaded him and said: "Brother Du, don't be impatient. There is no time to rush. You need to consider the long term. No matter who this assassin is, if they want to kill me, if they put some poison on the sword, I'm afraid I will be dead by now."
These words frightened Du Biao into a cold sweat.
After several attempts by the doctor to confirm that it was not poisonous, he felt relieved.
Yang Ke also had a solemn look on his face: "Young master Liu, you mean that the other party is trying to intimidate Mr. Liu and try to scare him away?"
Liu Zheng laughed and said: "So I am even more sure that this matter should be done by the prefecture. Because they saw that my 30,000 troops were still outside the city, they threw a rat weapon and wanted to kill me, but they didn't dare. They were worried that the army would attack.
, this Baiya City can’t stand it!”
Yang Ke took a deep breath: "Today in Baiya Prefecture, I'm afraid there are only 30,000 troops available. This..."
Liu Zheng explained the complicated situation in Baiya Prefecture today in one sentence. In the past, the Baiya Army had a horse farm, money, and military strength. The prefect's mansion was naturally willing to be a puppet, but now? This Chen Ping
With one consumption, the Baiya Army lost most of it. Now it only has 20,000 troops. It's strange that the Prefecture doesn't have any ideas...
Du Biao said angrily: "Zhang Chengjiang is really a snake and rat, trying to exploit both ends of the camp!~ Back then, Baiya Prefecture was very poor. If it weren't for my Baiya Army's business, how could the people be full? Now he is adding insult to injury.
..."
Neither Liu Zheng nor Yang Ke said anything.
Since ancient times, haven't there been many things that add insult to injury?
What's more, your White Cliff Army is an illegal organization in itself.
From your point of view, the Baiya Army deserves credit for their hard work. But from Zhang Chengjiang's point of view, the Baiya Army occupies the magpie's nest. Who is righteous and who is evil cannot be defined in itself.
In terms of theory and law, the Prefect's Mansion is even better.
"Don't worry, brother Liu, I, Du Biao, will definitely seek justice for you in this matter!"
Du Biao was anxious and angry.
Liu Zheng and Yang Ke quickly advised him. At this time, the war horse contract meeting in Baiya Prefecture was about to begin. Recently, many foreign lords, officials, generals, and traders had begun to enter the city one after another.
It would be unwise to break up with the prefect at this time.
But since the Prefect's Mansion has taken action, it must be on guard.
Yang Ke took a deep breath: "Prefect Zhang Chengjiang has always been a coward by nature. This incident must be the result of his evil daughter!"
"daughter?"
Liu Zheng was stunned. He was really wondering if there was an expert behind this picture of Cheng Jiang, but he didn't expect it to be his daughter.
Yang Ke sneered and said: "Zhang Xiao! This woman is just sixteen years old. She has been known as a genius since she was a child, and she is extremely evil. She was sent to Beijing to study since she was a child, and she just came back recently... According to Zhang Chengjiang's
Personality, I really don’t believe that he dares to do such a thing, but since Mr. Liu is definitely the prefect, then it is definitely Zhang Xiao!”
"Zhang Xiao?"
Liu Zheng smiled slightly. He suddenly wanted to meet this little girl who was called a monster.
Because after he came to Baiya Prefecture, he felt that it was very abnormal...
Yes, it is very different from the Baiya he imagined! He has always believed that the Baiya Army is in Baiya State, and that is the local emperor of the Baiya Army, who has absolute control over this place, whether it is politics, the army, or
people's hearts...
But today.
Just when he was assassinated, he discovered a very incredible situation.
That is, even though Yang Ke was by his side, the people in Baiya Prefecture allowed this assassination to happen in front of him. Liu Zheng did not imagine that they would swarm in to support the Baiya Army.
Why is this?
This shows that the Baiya Army in Baiya is not as popular as he imagined!
Regarding this complicated situation, Liu Zheng planned to observe it for a few more days.
