In the Governor's Mansion, it seemed a bit desolate at the moment. Mr. Zuzi was sitting in front of a table. The table that used to be filled with various documents was empty.
During this time, Zuzi rarely went to manage the affairs of the city anymore, but he still sat at his desk every day. This was a habit he had developed over the years.
"Governor, God's army has taken control of all the troops in the city." Jin Men came over with an intelligence sheet and looked at Mr. Zuzi sitting in front of the desk with a complicated expression, "I have followed what the governor said.
, issued an order not to resist to all troops, and there was no conflict between the two sides."
"That's it, okay." Mao Zuzi responded, but his expression didn't show much surprise at the moment.
Of course he knew that Tiangong led his army all the way north, and just as Ye Fan guessed, after hesitation, he finally gave up the resistance.
At first, Heavenly Father only had 20,000 troops in Nange City. In order to protect the people, Zuzi let him go. Now that Heavenly God has brought back an army of 200,000 and a group of elite soldiers and generals, how could Zuzi choose to fight to the death?
Woolen cloth.
They had anticipated this day, and when it came, it didn't seem that hard to accept.
"Alas." Looking at the clear sky above the mansion, Zuzi sighed and looked at Jin Men aside, but there was still a hint of loneliness in his eyes, "Jin Men, our time has finally passed."
"Nange City has been managed so hard for so long, but I didn't expect that it would fall into the hands of others in the end."
"The main reason is that the governor has a kind heart and cares about the people." Jin Men replied. As the top military advisor of the governor's office and a friend of Mr. Zuzi for many years, he could naturally understand the loneliness of Mr. Zuzi. After saying this, he sat down.
Looking at Zuozi, he said with relief: "It can only be said that God is a real hero. He seized the opportunity before the chaos and went outside the rules to reduce the dimensionality of us within the rules, leaving us helpless."
"To this day, anything else is the reason for the loser. I can only say that I hope he can treat these people better." Zuzi replied, waving his hands, as if he didn't want to say any more, and just here
At this time, the sound of knocking on the door rang again.
clang clang clang.
The door was shaken by knocks, and the familiar knock on the door made Zuzi frown. Before he could speak, Wu Jingtian's voice rang out from outside.
"The Minister of Military Affairs of Nanchuan, Tiangong, asks to see the Governor!"
"Sure enough, it's this bastard." Hearing this voice, Zuzi's face darkened, "I've given Nange City to him, what else does he want to do?"
"Don't worry, Governor, let's listen to what he wants to do first." Jin Men said from the side, "We still have a lot of power. Even if we negotiate, we may be able to win everything."
"I don't like talking to this bastard the most." Zuzi choked, but still said, "Let him come in. I want to see what else he wants to do."
Hearing this, Jin Men had no choice but to nod his head, quickly came to the door, stretched out his hand, and pushed the door open.
"Brother Jin Men, long time no see!" Wu Jingtian's signature smile was still in his eyes. He just hugged Jin Men and stuffed the gift in his arms, "Come on, come on, this is the gift God prepared for the governor.
The best rice wine in Nange City, clear and refreshing, and tastes really good."
"Rice wine..." Jin Men's face became a little tense, and he was about to say something, but when he saw God Tiangong behind Wu Jingtian, he was stunned, "Tiangong, are you already at the Eternal level now?"
"Commander Jin Men has such a sharp eye." Ye Fan replied, smiled, and walked into the hall without being polite. Wu Jingtian also let go of Jin Men and followed Ye Fan in.
Zhou Zuzi did not look at Ye Fan. At this moment, turning sideways, Ye Fan looked at Zhou Zuzi's appearance with a smile on his face, "Governor, you are sixty or seventy years old, but you are still acting like a child."
?”
This sentence choked Zuzi so much that he frowned and turned around, "The whole Nanchuan is yours now, what else do you want to do?"
"Nanchuan belongs to more than just me." Ye Fan replied, not paying attention to the sharpness in Zuzi's words. He sat down and picked up the teapot on the table and poured himself some tea.
Zuzi didn't speak, just stared at Ye Fan, and Ye Fan picked up the tea and took a slow sip. At this moment, he spoke, "Governor, as we said at the beginning, it should be a win-win situation between us.
"
"The result of a win-win situation is that you take away Nan Ge?" Zhou Zuzi asked.
"What can't be taken away is nothing more than a reputation. People like the Governor should not be so superficial when looking at things." Ye Fan replied with a smile on his lips, "The Governor should have heard of what I did."
"I severely attack the gentry and dynasty organizations, open up education, improve people's welfare, improve people's livelihood, and promote science and technology. Aren't these things what the governor wants to do?"
After hearing this, the expression on Zuzi's face became slightly better, but he quickly said, "You did those things, they have nothing to do with me."
"They are all part of Nanchuan, of course they are related." Ye Fan asked back, and then continued: "The governor wants to do this, but he can't do it because of the upper management and various restrictions. I did it, isn't the governor happy?"
After saying this, Zuzi became slightly silent and looked at the table without speaking.
Although he was not happy on the surface, he knew very well that what Ye Fan said was right. He had Nanchuan in his heart and would be happy that God could do this. In other words, he was not only happy, but envious.
There are many things that God can do that he wants to do. He obviously has a high and powerful position, but due to various restrictions and entanglements, he can't do any of them.
This reminds me of what Lin Kun said before he died. He, Zuzi, was obviously the person who should change everything in Nanchuan, but he did nothing. I don’t know how much helplessness and sadness it contained. Now,
How could he not be happy and envious when he could see someone who was clearly far inferior to him at the beginning doing all this?
Various emotions were entangled in his heart. After a while, Zuzi raised his head again and looked at Mark. There was a touch of complexity in his eyes, and the sharpness in his words was much less, "What do you want?"
"What you want is already here." Ye Fan replied, putting down the tea cup and leaning on the chair, "Governor, we are not enemies. I want you to join me."
"Join you?" After hearing this, Zuzi waved his hand without any hesitation, "This is impossible. I am the governor of Nanchuan, an orthodox official who has been granted the title of the three kings of the human race. You, the one who is plotting rebellion,
No matter what the reason is for asking me to serve you, I am not worthy of the governor-general's black gauze hat that King Wen personally gave me."
"Governor, I didn't say that I want you to be loyal to me, I just said to join." Listening to Zuzi's excited words, Ye Fan replied and waved his hand.
"The Governor is a man with great ambitions. In the past, he was unable to carry out his work due to various restrictions. Now I have control of Nanchuan, and I am not restricted by these restrictions."
"The same can be done if the Governor joins me. You can use your various ideas at will. With me here, no one will restrict or oppose you anymore."
Hearing this, Zuzi frowned slightly, but after a pause, he still asked: "What is the difference between joining and being loyal?"
"Literally, allegiance is slavery. If you join, I will not restrict the governor. You can still keep the army and you will still be the nominal governor of Nanchuan." Ye Fan replied, "What the governor can get from me is only
More than before.”
These words reflected Ye Fan's sincerity. Zuzi had also dealt with many people throughout his life. He understood Ye Fan's meaning and fell into silence again.
"Does this do you any good?" After a while, Zuzi said, "Didn't you say it's a win-win situation? But what you said seems to only have disadvantages for you."
"Benefits?" After hearing this, Ye Fan had a slight smile in his eyes. He glanced at Zuzi, then took out the token of the Minister of Arms that Zuzi gave him, and pushed it to Zuzi's
before.
"Governor, Nanchuan is stable and governed by people with lofty ideals. We will make the best use of everything and make the best use of people's talents."
