Martial Arts: Start by Obtaining the Wild World

Chapter 90 0089: A conflict of interests that affects the entire body!
Outside the government office.

Before Zheng Tianhai arrived at the government office, he saw the county magistrate Chang Younian with a livid face, angrily shouting at all the clerks and soldiers:

"Qi Yue, as the director of the Inspection Department, you must lead your men to seal off the four gates at all costs! From now on, no one is allowed to leave without my order!"

“Also, send someone to notify all the powerful families, gangs, and martial arts schools! Tell them to send out all their warriors to suppress these refugees! Otherwise, I will make them pay for it! Go!!”

"Yes!!"

Qi Yue quickly left with the somewhat panicked yamen official.

Li Lu was also among them. He had a serious look on his face. When he turned around to leave, he ran into Captain Zheng who happened to arrive.

"Captain Zheng." Li Lu quickly stopped and bowed.

"Li Lu? Well, go ahead and get busy." Zheng Tianhai nodded slightly. When he saw him, he suddenly thought of Cheng Zongyang and couldn't help but say, "By the way, remember to settle your family down!"

Li Lu bowed again with a grateful look on his face: "Thank you for your concern, Captain Zheng. I am very grateful."

After saying that, he left quickly.

Since my boss's boss has said so, I can go home and take care of my family with peace of mind when I stop by to inform the people at Chengnan Martial Arts School.

As everyone at the door left, only Chang Younian and the black-clad master behind him, holding a folding fan and looking calm and indifferent, were left. Zheng Tianhai came in front of Chang Younian and bowed, saying:
"Your Excellency, the East Gate has been secured, but the status of the other gates is still unknown."

Hearing that the East City Gate had not been breached, Chang Younian's face, which was almost gloomy, finally calmed down a little and said:

"Thank you for your hard work, Captain Zheng. I hope you can continue to lead people to block the city gates and prevent the situation from escalating!"

Zheng Tianhai shook his head slightly: "This is my duty. But County Master, this matter cannot be suppressed!"

Hearing the last three words, Chang Younian took a deep breath, suppressed his anger, and did not want to get angry at Zheng Tianhai. He just said expressionlessly:

"Don't worry, just seal the city gates and I'll take care of the rest."

"Kill all the refugees?" Zheng Tianhai seemed to have guessed the other party's intention and spoke it out without any concealment.

Chang Younian stared at Zheng Tianhai and said coldly: "I have already said it! You can leave now!"

Zheng Tianhai did not move, his tone gradually cooled, and he continued:
"The aristocratic families used the famine to reshuffle their cards, the noble families used the refugees to advance their positions, and the wealthy families competed to plunder the people's wealth! To do this, do they completely disregard the lives of tens of thousands of refugees and even tens of thousands of people in the city?"

"Zheng Tianhai!"

Being pointed out so directly was like a fig leaf being lifted, revealing the two years of intrigue and deceit under the leaf, and Chang Younian instantly flew into a rage:
"You are not a member of the main branch of the Zheng family, but an abandoned child of the side branch of the Zheng family! Do you still think that you have the Zheng family backing you up?
If it weren't for the Zheng family's sake, would you still be so reckless in enforcing your so-called rules in the county?"

"How I act is determined by the higher-ups! The fight among the aristocratic families in the county concerns the overall situation of the county city and even the prefectural city. A single move can affect the entire body! Do you, the so-called descendant of the Zheng family, still want the Zhu family to step on and suppress the Zheng family?

Humph, even my Chang family knows how to do it. You are such a pedantic person, no wonder you are despised! Get out! ! "

Zheng Tianhai looked at Chang Younian's furious face expressionlessly, ignoring the contempt and disdain in his words.

After the other party finished speaking, he said calmly:

"People with different ideals cannot make plans together. The Zhu family's spies in the city are keeping an eye on you. Those who play with fire will get burned. You wanted to use the refugees and watched them surround the county town. You knew that this would lead to the emergence of an epidemic, but you did it in order to obtain the so-called cure..."

"It's enough!!"

A powerful aura suddenly burst out from Chang Younian's body, and he instantly appeared in front of Zheng Tianhai. He punched him in the chest and knocked him away!
Zheng Tianhai fell heavily to the ground, with blood flowing from the corner of his mouth.

Chang Younian stared at the other person coldly and said in a grim tone:

"Whoever stops my plan must die! You should be thankful for your last name if you are still alive and challenging me from the beginning! Not your ability! In addition, you are dismissed from your post. From now on, you are no longer a head of police, but a commoner! If you dare to challenge my bottom line again, I will put you in jail!"

Having said that, Chang Younian flicked his sleeves and turned to walk into the county government office.

He didn't dare to kill Zheng Tianhai.

Even if the other party is an abandoned collateral descendant. Not for anything else, just because of his last name!
The Chang family cannot touch anyone from the Zheng family!
The young master in black behind him glanced at Zheng Tianhai, a smile appeared on his lips, and he slowly followed Chang Younian. It seemed that he didn't care about all these changes and secrets.

Zheng Tianhai covered his chest and slowly stood up. His expression became solemn.

Seventh rank warrior!!

"This is so hidden for years!"

In the six or seven years since he took office in the county, Chang Younian has fought no more than once. When he did, his strength was always at the level of the ninth rank.

Therefore, almost everyone thought that the county lord was an official of the ninth rank. After all, there were not many officials who practiced both civil and military skills.

I never thought that the momentum that just erupted was as strong as the seventh level!
"Chang Younian! Chang family!"

Zheng Tianhai wiped the blood from the corners of his mouth and beard, and looked at the back of the person entering the county government office with a puzzled look in his eyes.

Chang Younian knew very well what he wanted to do.

There are four aristocratic families in Qianye County: the Chang and Li families who are dependent on the Zheng family, and the Lu and Gu families who are dependent on the Zhu family.

Chang Younian did this in order to gain credit for resettling refugees and curing the epidemic. The Zheng family manipulated the court to transfer the current Qianye County Governor Zhu Shouren and replace him with Chang Younian.

The county magistrate is now qualified to speak at the court!
Not only did they eliminate the Zhu family's influence in the court and the county town, but they also further suppressed and eroded the Zhu family's affiliated families, the Lu family and the Gu family.

Officials in Daliang were appointed through recommendation.

If successful, not only will the Zheng family have more say in the court, but the Chang family, as a subsidiary, will also be more powerful in Qianye County.

As a result, the wealthy families in the county that Chang Younian has his eyes on can, through manipulation, have their selected members appointed as officials, and become aristocratic families in the county city at one stroke. This will in turn increase the Chang family's strength and voice in the county city, and then suppress the power of the aristocratic families affiliated with the Zhu family in the county city!

Even if they become the weakest family, these powerful families will try their best to fight for it!
When it comes to family interests, no one will give up!

Therefore, as long as the Zhao, Wang, Ma, and Fan families suppress the An and Miao families, they can continue to nibble away at them! Until the Chang family takes Yufeng County into their arms, and the Zheng family takes Qianye County into their power.

Afterwards, you can use Chiba County and Yufeng County to assist neighboring counties and prefectures to further suppress the county power of your opponents!

Zheng Tianhai couldn't explain the various interests involved and the feedback. But as a member of the Zheng family, he understood that the interests involved were just like what Chang Younian said, a small move can affect the whole body!

Once you start, there is no stopping!

Because this is not just about the interests of the aristocratic Zheng family, it also involves the interests of many affiliated forces!

The most important thing is that the Zheng family will never stop!

The eighteen aristocratic families of Daliang State ranged from the imperial court to the common people.

Fighting is the norm!
The situation has been balanced for hundreds of years, and when a drought occurs, it is an opportunity for the aristocratic families to break out.

After two years of struggle, there is almost a result today.

Chang Younian couldn't give up, he could understand that. Even if it was just the lives of the people of a county!
As long as the news does not reach the court, no one will care how many people die.

Although he understands, Zheng Tianhai will not agree!
It was precisely because of his unpleasant temperament that he was abandoned by the family.

Ignoring and disregarding the interests of the family, the only result is expulsion! The long-term development of the family does not need people who are soft-hearted and have saintly hearts!

"Whatever. Perhaps my cousin is right. My personality is only suitable for marrying a wife and having children, and living a peaceful life. I am not suitable for court and family struggles."

Zheng Tianhai looked at the people running on the road, felt a little lonely, and turned and left.

　Please give me a monthly ticket! Thank you very much!
