Chapter 2260 Loyalty
Gong Chao gritted his teeth and furrowed his brows, feeling extremely troubled. He thought to himself, maybe he got involved by mistake this time.
There was silence all over the place. Xu Yi himself broke the silence and said loudly, "This beast is rude and dares to snatch Director Gong. I will kill this beast for Director Gong. Zheng Sima enforces the law strictly, so there will be no objections."
As soon as he finished speaking, he walked to the flagpole, stretched out his hand and broke the flagpole made of black and dark iron, and put Cheng Yan down.
Without his need to move, Zhong Wu and his men rushed forward to catch Cheng Yan.
"Sima, Cheng Yan is humble, you don't have to do it for me..."
Cheng Yan's face was as white as paper, but his eyes were red.
Xu Yi did not think his skills were low and appointed him as his personal guard, the only one. Cheng Yan was deeply moved and responded with loyalty.
He was guarded outside Xu Yi's tent every day and served three meals a day with great care.
This time, Zheng Bahuo punished him, naturally to give Xu Yi power.
In fact, even if he bent his knees a little, Zheng Bahuo would not be so harsh. Moreover, he was not usually a person who would rather bend than bend. He had kneeled on these knees for countless people.
But this time, he believed that since Xu Yi delivered the token to him, he represented Xu Yi. Even though he was captured by Zheng Bahuo's personal guards and had his legs crushed, he never bent his knees.
"You are my comrade, why should I say that you are mean? You have done a good job in recuperating from your injuries."
Xu Yi patted Cheng Yan on the shoulder and swayed, blocking a purple lightning ball. His clothes were torn and his chest was burned black.
But it was Zheng Bahuo who took action with hatred. After the shock, he felt a great shame and humiliation. In front of everyone, he felt that he was a joke.
His attack was not aimed at Xu Yi, but at Cheng Yan.
Xu Yi dared to kill his personal guard commander. If he let Cheng Yan live, where would he lose his face?
But he never expected that Xu Yi's methods were astonishing. Not only could he discern opportunities, but he also had terrifying defenses. He could easily defend him with his special skills.
Xu Yi casually took out a green shirt and put it on his body. He stared at Zheng Bahuo calmly and said, "Is Zheng Sima going to fight with Xu? If Sima wants to fight, Xu will definitely accompany him. If Sima doesn't If you dare, you will only do it behind your back. If this matter spreads, the world will laugh."
As soon as he finished speaking, the soldiers in the array instantly formed a fighting formation. As long as Xu Yi gave the order, the battle would surely begin.
Zheng Bahuo glared at Xu Yi, and the blood in his head surged up. Just when his last sanity was about to be destroyed, Gong Chao laughed and said loudly, "What are you two doing? No matter what Say, the host XX is still there, but you two don't take Gong in your eyes? Even if you don't take Gong in your eyes, then don't you plan to pay attention to the Zhongshan Mansion behind Gong? "
As he spoke, he did not forget to send a message to Zheng Bahuo, asking him to control his anger and not fall into Xu Yi's tricks.
Once he takes the initiative and really triggers a conflict, it will be a huge case that no one can suppress.
"It's Xu's fault. Director Gong forgives me."
Xu Yi bowed and looked at Zheng Bahuo with a smile, the sarcasm in his eyes not concealed at all.
Zheng Bahuo's eyes were spitting fire. Although the Three Corpse Gods were furious, they took Gong Chao's words to heart.
He is a man of good background, and he came back to Dongshan purely to find a good springboard. However, Zhongshan Mansion first requested troops from Fanyang Mansion, and received a response from Ming Liding, who sent troops. Horse, take this Dongshan subordinate order.
But his temperament has always been domineering, and after finding out that the person sent by Fanyang Mansion was just a Qu Junhou, he became even more confident.
He used his family's power to ask Zhongshan Mansion to also request troops from Shuanghe Mansion, where he was located, and then he led his troops to kill them.
With the elders of his family planning on his behalf, he quickly became involved with Gong Chao.
Gong Chao was an old man in the position of Secretary of the Department of Official Selection, and he was too proficient in personnel deployment.
This time, it was he who suggested Zheng Bahuo to threaten Xu Yi.
According to his assumption, since Fanyang Mansion has sent people, it is not appropriate to forcefully give the position of Dongshan subordinate order to Zheng Bahuo.
After all, it was you, Zhongshan Mansion, who asked for troops, Fanyang Mansion sent people, and your Zhongshan Mansion first arranged for the Dongshan Subordinate Order. If nothing else, Ming Liding's face was thrown into the mud.
These are troubled times, and it is obviously stupid to offend a general like Ming Liding who has strong troops for a small gain.
Therefore, a certain strategy is required to properly place the position of Dongshan Subordinate Order on Zheng Bahuo's head.
The strategy that Gong Chao helped set was to let Zheng Bahuo use his power to suppress others, so that Xu Yi would be convinced and would not dare to fight anymore. Then, Zhongshan Mansion could write to Fanyang Mansion, saying this The situation on the border was really critical, so he had no choice but to send troops to Shuanghe Mansion.
Little did they know that the two invited Sima were at odds with each other, and Xu Sima left in anger. Later, he would make up for his sincere gratitude and give Ashaki Liding face, and the matter would be considered a complete reunion.
Even though Ming Liding was unhappy, he probably had no shame in blaming the Zhongshan Mansion. In the final analysis, it was the people he sent who were incompetent.
Such a design must be said to be very ingenious, but after the script was ready, one of the starring actors actually forcibly changed the script.
The Xu Yi who arrived, although he was only at the first level of cultivation, was surprisingly powerful. What was even more troublesome was that this man was not yet a brave man, and every move he made was stuck on key points.
For example, when Zheng Bahuo killed Zheng Bahuo's personal guard captain, Zheng Bahuo punished Cheng Yan for being rude. Even if Xu Yi killed Zheng Bahuo's personal guard captain, Zheng Bahuo could only bear the loss of being dumb.
Later, he pressed harder and harder, inducing Zheng Bahuo to start a fight, but he always followed the truth in every word and deed and refused to go beyond the rules. He was like a slippery piece of meat.
Zheng Bahuo was furious and furious, but he still maintained his sense. The reason why he was so furious was because he recognized that he was from a noble family and would never take a grassroots like Xu Yi seriously.
But now, this guy from a grassroots background has caused him a lot of trouble. A strong sense of humiliation made him so angry.
But at this moment, he had come out of the state of being so furious that he couldn't control himself. He saluted Gong Chao and said, "It's Zheng Menglang. Please forgive me, Director Gong."
Gong Chao held Xu Yi with one hand and Zheng Bahuo with the other. He sighed and said, "To be honest, I don't blame you two. It's because something went wrong on our side. At that time, the rebels were in high gear, and my Zhongshan Mansion was also a gangster." The situation was about to collapse, so he had no choice but to ask for help from Shuanghe and Fanyang Prefectures at the same time. He thought that at most one reinforcement would arrive, but he did not expect that the leaders of Shuanghe and Fanyang Prefectures were both anxious heroes and sent two reinforcements respectively. But there is only one position for the Dongshan Subordinate Order, and a woman cannot marry twice. For this purpose, we can only choose the best, what do you think?"
