When Shuang came to the City Lord's Mansion, she was still smiling, half of her face was covered by a red translucent veil, but she looked really in a good mood.
In contrast, He Yue who was sitting at the long table didn't look so happy.
This is the original meeting room, that is, when Lide was there, a large group of people gathered together to discuss things. In the past, this place was almost full, because Alaiya, Felita, Baihuang, Fang Shisan and others would also participate in it and express their opinions. Everyone is good at different directions and expresses different opinions. In the end, Lide made the final decision. Now there is only one Heyue left among these familiar people, but Heyue has summoned some of her own core personnel to make up the number, and Shuang can see this in her eyes.
Frost said softly:
"My lord summoned the little girl so late, what's the matter?"
"Yeah, I'm in trouble..."
Shuang dragged out a chair and sat down, He Yue also poured a glass of wine into the glass in front of her, drank it all in one gulp, and said with a wry smile:
"To tell you the truth, these people are people who followed me all the way from the sea of clouds, and they can be regarded as my own cronies. Regarding this incident, about half of the people are opposed. Some people are waiting and watching, saying that they must If I want to see you, I can only feel at ease after hearing some promises. I can't just kill my cronies casually, so I can only invite Miss Shuang to come over."
After He Yue's voice fell, a person behind him stood up and said:
"That's right! I heard that Miss Shuang is in charge of Anbu, and her force is far superior to us. If Miss Shuang puts our adults under house arrest after the incident and controls the actual power in her own hands, wouldn't we have to obediently arrest him?"
Shuang glanced at the man, and said seriously:
"So that's how it is... A few of you are not opposed to your own adults becoming city lords, but because you can't trust the little girl?"
Another staff member stood up and said:
"There are also those who oppose it. People are not grass and trees, who can be ruthless? The city owner can say that he is benevolent to my lord and Miss Shuang. Now that he is in danger outside, we don't think about how to save him. Instead, we are here to play tricks. We feel ashamed. But there are priorities in everything, Fang Shisan is embracing his own strength outside the city, Yuxi City is in turmoil, we have no other way."
Everyone expressed their opinions:
"But I don't want to be fish on the chopping board. We need to make sure Miss Shuang won't become the next Fang Shisan."
"Why did Miss Shuang become the next Fang Shisan? Just because she went to the meeting tonight alone, I don't think she will!"
"Stop arguing. Tomorrow is the day for the incident. Tonight we have to set the rules..."
"Regulations? Who knows if this woman will turn her face on the spot?"
The people behind He Yue didn't seem to be monolithic, and soon began to quarrel.
He Yue poured a glass of wine and said:
"Be quiet! Are you really going to let people see a joke?"
Only then did the core elites of the Internal Affairs Office shut their mouths.
He Yue looked at Shuang, sighed, and said:
"Miss Shuang... don't blame me."
Shuang was wary of these staff at first, but when she saw that these people were not monolithic, she relaxed slightly and said with a smile:
"The few are also eager to protect the Lord, how can the little girl blame it?"
She looked around at the people present, pondered for a while, and said:
"To tell you the truth, in life, no one is without desires and desires. If there is an opportunity to move forward, I believe no one will refuse, and the little girl is no exception. It's just that there are many restrictions on her body, and she dare not and can't do it. .”
The young staff member who was the first to attack said:
"What kind of imprisonment is there? The power of Anbu can even extend to my internal affairs department. What kind of imprisonment is there?"
Frost smiled and said:
"In the past, when Lord Shoufu didn't come, Yuxi City was the city lord's discretion. Later, when Lord Shoufu came, Yuxi City was dominated by the Department of Internal Affairs. After Fang Shisan came, the military power and political power were completely separated, and the military power was divided. After the little girl came, she set up and developed the Anbu, which is considered to be a distribution of supervision rights. In the words of the city owner, this is to distribute the power of Yuxi City to our three families, referred to as [Yu Sanjia]."
Shuang paused, then continued:
"There is a specialization in the art industry. Master Shoufu and everyone are unwilling to move Fang Shisan because the current Yuxi City cannot do without her support. Similarly, the little girl cannot touch Master Shoufu, because the little girl does not have the ability to replace Master Shoufu. At most, the position is just to use the position to gain some benefits for the family. Don’t you give me such a small benefit? Is it true that the Internal Affairs Department will surpass everyone in the future and return to the appearance of Yuxi City when it was founded? ?”
The staff behind He Yue suddenly fell silent, Shuang no longer used a serious tone, but said with an aggrieved look:
"No matter how you guess, the little girl is just Anbu's mind. I don't know how much I have? The things about Anbu alone are enough to give me a headache. I have to share the power to barely support it. Let me put Mr. Shoufu under house arrest... that is, the new Lord of the City. He secretly manipulates political affairs by himself, and a little girl is not capable of that."
The staff didn't know what to say for a while, but Amo, who was listening outside the door, let out a soft pooh, went back to the room to inform her father to follow the plan, and then quietly slipped out of the city lord's mansion.
He Yue and Shuang didn't realize that someone outside was eavesdropping just now, He Yue poured himself a glass of wine, turned around and asked:
"Do you have any other questions?"
Several staff members exchanged glances, and they were obviously not convinced by each other, but the supporters had already gained the upper hand.
He Yue took a sip of wine and said:
"No problem, please apologize first."
The staff member who led the opposition pursed his lips and said:
"Although I still can't fully trust Miss Shuang, I am willing to cooperate in this matter."
Frost smiled and said:
"I will give a speech tomorrow, how many are ready?"
A girl who had defended Shuang before said with a smile:
"Everything is ready. The Internal Affairs Office has always been impeccable. Don't worry, Miss Shuang. The news of the city lord's disappearance has spread all over the streets and alleys of Yuxi City these days. The city lord's order to succeed the city lord is both reasonable and legal, and it is what the people want. I just don't know how Miss Shuang is preparing? Is there any way to deal with those diehards who support the city lord?"
Frost said:
"The Anbu organization has spread all over the city. A large pit with a radius of hundreds of meters has been dug outside the city. If there are any people in the city who are willing to be loyal to the city lord, the little girl will give them a place to die."
He Yue drank the wine in the glass.
When Shuang's eyes were on him, several staff members exchanged a glance imperceptibly.
He Yue laughed. She filled the glass with wine and toasted to Shuang, only to find that there was nothing in front of Shuang, so she asked:
"Can Miss Shuang drink alcohol?"
Frost nodded, smiled and said:
"Yes. If the adults want to drink, the little girl will accompany you."
"Drinking is a mistake, so stop drinking."
He Yue said, and said to the staff:
"Add a glass of wine for Miss Shuang."
The two staff who supported Shuang before, including the girl who asked her just now, hurriedly took the tray and wine glass, poured wine from Heyue's wine pot, and brought it to Shuang. Seeing that the drink was brought by a staff member who had been friendly to her before, Shuang instinctively let go of her guard.
He Yue raised her wine glass just right and said:
"Then, I wish you and I a happy cooperation."
After finishing speaking, she drank the wine calmly and put the glass aside.
Frost took the wine glass from the staff, lightly brushed her fingernails in the wine, and the silver powder on her nails was the same color as usual.
Then she picked up the wine glass with confidence and said:
"The little girl just doesn't want to continue to worry about doing things beside the current city lord. After this thing is done, the little girl is willing to assist the lord wholeheartedly."
After speaking, she picked up the wine glass and prepared to drink it down.
What she didn't notice was that the moment she raised her head, He Yue seemed to raise her hand inadvertently, and knocked down the empty cup on the table.
When the cup was still in the air, He Yue said lightly:
"But I don't want to."
The moment the sound of cracking sounded, the two staff members pulled out their daggers from their cuffs and placed them on their frost-white and tender necks. Even to be on the safe side, the staff behind He Yue moved forward together, each armed with a weapon, and surrounded Shuang with short knives and long swords.
