Chapter 185 The Dust Settles
Tang Ziyao seemed to have expected that the people from the Black Dragon Palace would come forward to obstruct it. She said in a calm tone, "Lu Mingze, you must have a beginning and an end in your words. The mastermind behind the kidnapping of the college is indeed an official person, that is, Yang Shaofeng. But everyone You know, Yang Shaofeng and I are hostile competitors, he is him, I am me, do you think I have to pay for what he has done, and for my opponent?"
Tang Ziyao's question was even more acute, but Lu Mingze didn't take it seriously at all, and said, "You're right, you don't have to pay for Yang Shaofeng's actions, but there is a grievance and a debtor, you only kill the accomplices in front of you, and Not going after the real murderer, isn’t that just trying to cover up what is it?”
The repeated questioning between the two of them could be said to be useless, and every word and every word pointed at each other's vital points.
"So I detained all of Yang Shaofeng's subordinates. This is already an internal official matter. I have no right to put them on trial here." Tang Ziyao said righteously: "And I can guarantee that after returning to Beihai City, I will We will personally sue Yang Shaofeng to the authorities and investigate his crime of abusing his power."
Tang Ziyao's answer was detailed and clear, without avoiding any questions from Lu Mingze.
As she said, she has no right to judge Yang Shaofeng's subordinates and the legion. This is completely beyond the scope of her authority. If she does so, it will be tantamount to overstepping the forbidden zone of order.
"This is just your rhetoric, how many people can you convince with your guarantee?" Lu Mingze finally led the army, and said: "Unless you kill all of Yang Shaofeng's men in front of everyone in Tiecheng." Fa-rectification on the spot, otherwise it will not be enough to win people's trust."
He was undoubtedly pushing Tang Ziyao into the pit of fire, and at the same time gave her a chance. If she followed Lu Mingze's words, the ruler of Tiecheng would be settled, and Tang Ziyao would belong to her.
Lu Mingze's move was played very skillfully, and Tang Ziyao was caught in a dilemma. No matter what choice she made, there would be both pros and cons, with some sides and some bad sides.
The Black Dragon Palace is completely harming others and not benefiting themselves. They are very clear that the Black Dragon Palace is at an absolute disadvantage.
The situation they most want to see is that Tang Ziyao gives up making a choice, so that the condensed general trend will be disintegrated in an instant.
"Your Excellency is taking advantage of others' danger by doing this. Master Tang has made it very clear that she has no right to do that. Since Tiecheng wants to establish order, if she does what you say, it will break the order again. "
At this time, Ren Xinyi stepped forward, and she said forcefully: "Our Ren family, Zhu family, and Luo family are willing to support Master Tang unconditionally, and I believe that she will abide by what she said. Please don't do it for a moment. Happy, and let Tiecheng repeat the mistakes of the past."
When the war broke out at the Bauhinia Academy, it was the official support that finally quelled the catastrophe. If Ye Mengxuan hadn't led troops to reinforce it, it would have been a question of whether Li Qian could be killed.
Because of this, Ren Xinyi still leans towards the official forces from the bottom of her heart. She has never had any dealings with the Longyuan faction represented by the Black Dragon Palace. Official side.
At least Tang Ziyao was upright and upright, she took the lead several times for the safety of Tiecheng, and Tiecheng was in her hands, which was more secure than Black Dragon Hall.
Ren's family and Zhu's Luo's family are real local families, very famous in Tiecheng. They came forward to support Tang Ziyao, and the effect was very significant, easily inciting many people.
"Go out and show up, don't worry about the Black Dragon Hall any more." Lin Yue said to Du Xingyun who was beside him.
He knew that Du Xingyun had always been scruples. At the beginning, the Black Dragon Palace provided the quota for the commercial alliance, but now it was difficult for Du Xingyun to turn against each other.
But today, no matter how many scruples there are, it is useless. How can you say that Lin Yue has the greatest kindness to Du Xingyun? It is impossible for him to lose a big one because of a small one. The Black Dragon Palace can be offended, but Du Xingyun cannot accept the loss of such a reliable partner as Lin Yue .
Du Xingyun dragged his fat and bloated body and squeezed through the crowd. After everyone recognized his identity, they were greatly moved and made way for him.
"I, Du Xingyun, support Lieutenant Tang on behalf of the business alliance. During the battles in the outskirts of the city these days, the official forces have given us great help to the business alliance. I think the person in power in Tiecheng should belong to Lieutenant Tang." Du Xingyun paused and said : "As for today's trial, Lieutenant Tang has made it very clear that she is performing her duties in accordance with the law. If she really executes everyone, what is the difference from Yang Shaofeng who abused her power?"
Tang Ziyao nodded to Du Xingyun to express her gratitude. With the support of the business alliance, it is enough to have the final result.
The momentum of the business alliance will overwhelm the official forces in Iron City. As soon as Du Xingyun spoke, almost all the people no longer had any hesitation, and raised their hands high to vote for the official forces.
Lu Mingze's face was livid with anger. He didn't expect that the situation would suddenly take a turn for the worse. The three major local families and the thriving business alliance seemed to have colluded and gave their votes to the official forces.
For Lin Yue, such a result was expected. The official forces headed by Tang Ziyao dared to fight, and this alone was enough to completely defeat the people sent by the Black Dragon Palace.
In the end, Tang Ziyao acted resolutely and decisively, and executed more than a dozen former high-ranking members of the Bauhinia Academy to death.
The blood-stained execution platform officially kicked off a day of order in Tiecheng.
And on this day, the forces of the Black Dragon Palace and the Longyuan camp were withdrawn from the Iron City one by one, because starting today, the Iron City will be included in the map section of the Dragon City camp.
Some people are happy and some are sad. Regarding this, Lin Yue thought of Chu Xiaoyue who fought side by side with him back then. The Dark Moon Society she belonged to also quit Iron City one after another. He didn't know what to do in the future.
Lin Yue also has a lot of helplessness. He can't do everything perfectly. Tiecheng must have a clear master. If the internal struggle continues, there will be a day of self-destruction.
Almost one-third of the forces retreated from the iron city to the territory of the Longyuan camp. It is worth mentioning that due to the special nature of the mercenary guild, and because Lin Yue is a free mercenary, the mercenary guild retained down.
In the final analysis, the original guild in Tiecheng was just a branch of the three major guilds.
You must know that among the three major guilds, the headquarters of any one of the guilds can easily destroy the iron city. It is a real giant, and it cannot be compared with a small iron city.
