Bai Huang originally wanted to take the patrol team to do it directly, but under Amo's persuasion, he temporarily gave up this plan.
As the saying goes, if you catch a thief, you get the stolen goods, and if you catch the adulterer, you catch both. Now she has no clear evidence, nor has she caught the scene of the two working together. Coupled with He Ji's absence, Bai Huang's patrol team may not be able to defeat the Anbu organization, so she decided to play it safe and ambush these two people.
Amo volunteered to run back to the City Lord's Mansion to monitor Heyue's movements, while Baihuang continued to patrol outside in the name of stabilizing the situation, and did not go back that night.
…
When the news that Fang Shisan refused to return to Yuxi City came back, He Yue seemed to have a headache.
Shuang didn't mind fanning the flames at this time, and said from the side:
"According to what the bottle said, Fang Shisan hopes to bring troops into Yuxi City together, otherwise she will not come back. It can only show that she really has a ghost in her heart, and she plans to support herself outside the city."
He Yue sat in the position of the first assistant, and while still instructing the mountains of official documents, he said:
"We can't come to a conclusion yet. Fang Shisan is right. No one in Yuxi City has the right to give her direct orders. She said that it is Li De's order to stay at the front line. At this stage, Li De's order is the highest will of Yuxi City." , she is right not to come back."
Frost said slowly:
"But who can be sure that staying on the front line is the order of the city lord?"
There was no expression on He Yue's face, but the hand holding the pen added some strength:
"Anyway, Fang Shisan cannot be moved now."
Frost said:
"Of course you can't move, otherwise no one will be able to defend the demons. But Fang Shisan must go back to Yuxi City, and she can only explain some things in person."
He Yue said lightly:
"We don't have the authority to order her. The Department of Internal Affairs and the Department of Military Affairs are nominally at the same level."
Frost said coldly:
"Then how about finding a way to give her a head-high?"
He Yue raised her head and looked into Shuang's eyes. Shuang looked back into He Yue's eyes and said without hesitation:
"The city lord is missing, and his life and death are unknown. Yuxi City is surrounded by enemies on three sides, and Fang Shisan is supporting himself outside. This is already the biggest crisis Yuxi City has faced since last year. The little girl thinks that it is an extraordinary time to do extraordinary things. At this time Only by using the City Lord Order left by the Lord City Lord, first promote the position of the Lord, and then naturally have the power to order Fang Shisan."
He Yue stared at the documents on the table for a long time, then said:
"I'm already the Chief Assistant of Internal Affairs, what room for improvement?"
This is where the egg hurts. Yuxi City has not officially set a position level, and its actions are neither civil nor military. Fang Shisan did not directly lead or be led. Common sense speculates that the way of commanding the army in the temple does not apply to Yuxi City. Since Fang Shisan came to Yuxi City, all military affairs have been handed over to her alone. He Yue is only responsible for raising food, distributing military salaries and purchasing armaments. From the perspective of the Internal Affairs Department, it is natural for the army to be under its own leadership. From the perspective of the army, the entire Internal Affairs Department is no different from a logistics department.
Frost said without hesitation:
"The city lord. At worst, he must be the acting city lord."
The pen in He Yue's hand lightly tapped the table, her thoughts turned quickly:
"Acting city lord..."
Frost said:
"Although my lord is now the chief assistant of the internal affairs, basically all the political affairs of Yuxi City are handed over to my lord, and in the eyes of outsiders, I am no different from the city lord. But whether it is Fang Shisan's army or the little girl's Anbu, now my lord There is no justifiable reason to order. It is not difficult to do it, as long as you take a step forward. Yuxi City is full of dangers, and it depends on the adults alone, so you can't worry too much at this time."
He Yue closed her eyes, sighed heavily, and said:
"There is no other way?"
Shuang observed his words and expressions, knowing that he had persuaded He Yue, so he said more respectfully:
"My lord should know better than anyone else that there is no other way."
He Yue nodded slowly.
She looked haggard all of a sudden, her clear face did not have the vague charm of the past, but it was a little more awe-inspiring. Shuang lowered her eyebrows and pleasing her eyes, suddenly half-knelt down and said loudly:
"Little girl, congratulations to your lord. From today on, this little girl is willing to serve your lord on both sides of the saddle!"
He Yue stood up and said lightly:
"Well. Three days later, I will gather the people in the square, publicly announce the news of Lide's disappearance, and show him the city lord's decree, which entrusts me to manage all matters of Yuxi City for him. You go to prepare for this matter, Don't let the wind out in advance, you must make them feel at a loss on the spot, and you can only recognize our orthodoxy. At the same time, you spread out the people from Anbu, distribute them throughout the city, and suppress all resistance forces when necessary. I will now prepare the props that will be needed at that time , including the city lord's order, etc. must be filled out in advance."
Shuang Ban knelt on the ground with her head lowered, He Yue couldn't see her expression, she could only hear her soft voice:
"Don't worry, the Anbu organization handles these things with ease. The little girl can guarantee that it won't cause any trouble to the adults."
He Yue sighed and said:
"I believe in your ability."
Shuang raised her head and saw a trace of confusion in He Yue's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. The aura of a high-ranking person on her instantly overwhelmed everything, and she was two or three points similar to the Lingwu Lord Shuang Yuan had seen before.
…
Amo returned to the City Lord's Mansion with a bunch of materials. She was young, and the guards greeted her sweetly when she saw her. No one would suspect that she was hiding something. It wasn't for buying materials, but for sneaking out to inform her.
Amo trotted back to the forging room, where Liushi was forging iron.
Amo carefully closed the door, and the room suddenly became dark, leaving only the flickering fire.
Fortunately, Liu Shi didn't fall into the frenzy of forging, he was slowly forging a sword, and when the light in the room dimmed, he immediately reacted.
Amo put the material in the corner, gently pulled up her father's cuff, leaned into his ear, and told him the matter word by word.
For Amo, she has already decided not to pin her hopes on one person because she is a kid. She knew that Baihuang was the heroine of justice praised by Yuxi City, but she also knew that she was the daughter of Lord Yunhai.
After Liu Shi finished listening, he also narrowed his eyes.
Looking at the half-finished sword on the forging platform, he said slowly:
"It's more troublesome than imagined... and we can do too little. You are right to go to Baihuang, even if she has a dark heart, at least she can mess up the situation... But you can't rely on her alone. It is impossible for the inspection team to mobilize North Industries The elite guards at the base who came to join the regiment may not be able to beat the well-trained assassins of Anbu."
Amo said softly:
"Father, what should we do?"
Liushi pondered for a while, then said:
"Although I think it's better to wait and see, there is still another way left for us. Blacksmiths can not only provide excellent weapons, but also use weapons...to kill people."
