This time, before Tie Tang could speak, Fang Lexian explained first: "There are still some differences. I gave you what I gave you before, and I don't ask for anything else.

Now I not only want to give more, but also ask them to do things, which is tantamount to looking for a 'sitter', do you understand?"

"Looking for excuses? If you say that, why don't I understand? It's so futile. How could I, Tielong, know this?"

Everyone laughed loudly, but they were also shocked by Tie Tang's plan. What he did was really not like a genius, but like a veteran in the business world.

The opening of Yanxia Cave has brought a glimmer of life to the stagnant Qingshui City.

And on the other side.

The team led by Qiu Zhengyang, like bull heads and horse faces threatening their lives, surrounded the Si family's residence with a strong evil aura.

In order to prevent anyone from escaping, Qiu Zhengyang not only contacted He Changsheng, but also called Li Qingwan and came with three battalions of troops.

Si Yuanlong, who was still plotting in the Ji family at this time, immediately became anxious after receiving the message from his subordinates, and rushed to the door of the Si family with several clan elders.

"Qiu Zhengshou, Mr. He is arresting the county, eh? Captain Li is here too? Why are you here?" Si Yuanlong's feet and stomach were spinning, but he was still holding on.

Ever since Tie Tang became the county governor, he knew that this day would come sooner or later, but he just didn't expect it to come so quickly.

What's more, I didn't expect that the enemy I provoked in the past would not come now. It seemed that he didn't take the Si family seriously at all.

Qiu Zhengyang didn't talk nonsense. He stepped on the glow and looked down at Si Yuanlong and others.

"You know what you are guilty of for what you have done, so just go ahead and arrest me. Qiu, because of his love for the village, can give you some dignity."

"Master Qiu, you can eat randomly, but you can't talk nonsense." Naturally, Si Yuanlong would not give in so easily.

But the clan elders behind him, as well as the Si family members who came in a hurry, were a little ready to make a move.

Si has a lot of family members.

Some people boast that they have never done dirty work, and maybe the involvement is not deep. Surrendering early would not be a bad thing. Maybe not only can they save their lives, but they can even be acquitted.

But Si Yuanlong's lineage has been in charge of the Si family for many years. Si Yuanlong didn't speak, and they didn't dare to turn around immediately.

What's more.

The Si family also has the biggest trump card.

That is General Zhenxi, who is far away in Jiangdu Prefecture, Si Guangji, who is in the witch god realm.

As long as this backer remains... they don't believe that Qiu Zhengyang really dares to uproot everyone in the Si family.

Qiu Zhengyang clasped his hands behind his back and his eyes were bright: "I, on the orders of the Governor of Tie County, came to clear out the Si family, but those who resist... will be killed without mercy.

Everyone, think about it!"

"Where is the Tie Tang man? Let him come over!" Si Yuanlong gritted his teeth in anger, and his eyes were about to burst.

Qiu Zhengyang immediately angrily rebuked: "The county governor is busy with official duties and has important matters of his own. Do you think that I, the supervisor, can't touch you?"

When it comes to actual law enforcement, in fact, Tie Tang, the county guard, does not have as much power as Qiu Zhengyang, the supervisor.

But everyone present understands...

Qiu Zhengyang has been the supervisor of Qingshui City for decades. He has not come before and will not come in the future.

Now he's here.

And dare to come!

That could never be his own intention, it must be Tie Tang’s instruction.

Si Yuanlong suppressed his anger and bowed his hands, maintaining the last dignity of the family leader.

"Sir Qiu, this matter is of great importance. I need to inform my father, and please... think twice!!!"

The last few words were almost spoken by Si Yuanlong through clenched teeth, and the threat was obvious.

He Changsheng was a little impatient in waiting, and urged: "Old enemy, what nonsense are you talking to him about? I'll just take the blame for the Si family."

Qiu Zhengyang chuckled and said: "I, the Supervisory Palace, must do things openly and aboveboard, how can I be criticized by others?"

He looked at Si Yuanlong and waved his hand: "I'll give you a stick of incense time, just go and pass it on."

Qiu Zhengyang had already received Tie Tang's instructions and knew that Si Guangji would not do so and did not dare to interfere in the affairs of Qingshui City.

Such an action... can make Si Yuanlong completely give up, and can also cause civil strife in the Si family, and some people will surrender without taking action.

After all, they are all from the same hometown, and there is still a sense of friendship. Qiu Zhengyang does not want to do things too badly.

Otherwise, with a wave of his hand, soldiers and horses entered the house, and unless the blood flowed into rivers, the sun and the moon lost light, the matter would not be solved.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

After receiving the news, the heads of the other three major aristocratic families also came with their confidants, and even many people from some subordinate vassal aristocratic families came.

But.

Almost no one dares to take the lead in interceding for the Si family.

They...

They all vaguely realized something.

This time.

Tie Tang means it, Qiu Zhengyang means it.

This new county governor, who has just taken office not long ago, has already penetrated into the hearts of all the aristocratic families in Qingshui City.

In addition, many aristocratic families lost their manpower in Yanxia Cave and suffered heavy losses.

The first- and second-rate aristocratic families were okay, but the third- and fourth-rate aristocratic families immediately fell into despair after the death of some of their pillars. At this time, they couldn't even take care of their own family affairs. How could they dare to stand up for the Si family?

Time passes slowly.

After a stick of incense.

Si Yuanlong walked out of the inner palace with a livid face.

His famous father...

No response.

What this means is clear to everyone.

They were abandoned by Si Guangji.

Or rather.

Si Guangji did not dare to provoke Tie Tang, so he could only choose to retreat in this game.

"No wonder Tie Tang didn't even come. Has he already reached this point..." Si Yuanlong was filled with sorrow and was helpless.

At this time, several clan elders secretly transmitted the message: "Long'er, you can leave. We old bones have no hope, but you are different.

As long as you escape to Jiangdu Prefecture, I don't believe that the evil thief Tie Tang dares to arrest you. Just go away and I will cover you later."

"Third Grandpa..."

"As long as you don't die, you still have a chance. Before others can react, you give the order quickly and we will take advantage of the chaos to cover you."

Si Yuanlong felt cruel, knowing that if his order was followed, many people in the Si family might die.

But he has no choice.

If you want to survive, you have to sacrifice the lives of other tribesmen.

Si Yuanlong stood up and glanced at other aristocratic families and the three most critical allies.

"Tie Tang violated discipline and law. If he can slander our Si family today, he can also kill your Ji family, Gou family, and Yang family in the future.

Now that he is about to succeed, he has set up a large defensive formation so that you will not be able to leave even if you want to.

Everyone, what are you waiting for?

Don’t you understand the meaning of dying lips and cold teeth?”

Qiu Zhengyang watched Si Yuanlong bewitching others coldly, but did not speak to stop him.

Because what Si Yuanlong said is at least half right.

These rotten and corrupt people will have to be eradicated sooner or later, so today we will let them do it together and catch them all in one fell swoop.

However...

No matter how much Si Yuanlong's tongue spreads like a lotus flower, all the major families remain indifferent. Even among the three allies, only one of the Ji family is ready to make a move.

Gou Hanfei, the head of the Gou family, lost his life in the Yanxia Cave. He had previously faced off against Tie Tang, but was defeated miserably. He was already frightened inside.

The head of the Yang family was the most foresighted. As early as when Tie Tang was dealing with the Gou family, he chose to sit on the sidelines and stand in a neutral position.

Because the head of the Yang family knew that no matter how hard Tie Tang tried, the Qingshui City family would never be completely wiped out.

There will always be aristocratic families that will survive, or new aristocratic families that will emerge.

And for the head of the Yang family...

The Si family was destroyed, and although he lost a powerful ally, if he managed it well, he might still be able to take the opportunity to carve up the Si family's territory and expand the Yang family's power.

Everything has two sides.
To be continued...
