Quick Travel: Almighty Butler

In the end, Shen Mingxuan's proposal was unanimously approved without any objection.

So, with everyone's acquiescence, Shen Mingxuan once again counted his troops and set off towards Quancheng.

Xiang Canling watched the army set off.

This time the attack on Quancheng was huge, and Shen Mingxuan did not hide it, so the other city lords who got the news were even more dissatisfied.

What are you doing in Yunfu City?Didn't you take them too seriously? I just condemned you for attacking Qianliu City, but in the end, you pretended you couldn't see it and turned around and said you were going to attack Quancheng.

Are you deliberately trying to provoke a war and plunge the entire Beiyu into war?

If chaos breaks out in Beiyu, you will be the sinners!

……

Xiang Canling looked at the content of the condemnation letter and wanted to throw it away, but there were other people in front of him, so he had to put the letter on the desk.

"City Lord, you have also seen that these are all letters sent by the major city lords in Beiyu. My subordinates believe that this war cannot be fought."

Xiang Canling watched as his subordinates took advantage of the chief steward's absence and began to send representatives over to persuade him to withdraw his orders.

Xiang Canling really wanted to imitate the butler, pointing at them and scolding them as bastards, but he couldn't.

It’s not like he wants to fight this battle, so what’s the use of telling me?If you have the ability to speak to the chief steward, why didn't you come forward to stop me during the discussion yesterday?At this moment, the chief steward led his troops to go on an expedition, so he asked me to take back my life as a hindsight.

Where do you get the confidence to think that I can move the butler with my orders?Believe it or not, when I give the order, not only will the army not be called back, but they will be beaten up by the butler who came back overnight?

It's not you who are being exploited. Of course you are just talking. If it weren't for the fact that the person you sent really cares about Yunfu City and doesn't want Yunfu City to be at the forefront, I would have had him dragged down. .

Xiang Canling complained dissatisfiedly in her heart, but she didn't show it on the surface.

He raised his eyes and looked at the person who spoke. This person looked to be in his 40s. He was wearing a brown robe. He was a subordinate of the original owner, the cheap daddy. He was very loyal and dedicated to Yunfu City. He was a rare person who did practical things.

Therefore, Xiang Canngling was more tolerant towards him. This was manifested in the fact that when the other party remonstrated with him, he did not let anyone drag him down, but let him speak.

"This city lord knows that you don't want to fight, but this war must be fought."

Xiang Canling took out a pile of paper and handed it to Feng Pingshi.

This is what the Zhao family started to contact Yunfu City after getting the news.

Of course, this pile of paper is not all there is, there are other contents.

Xiang Canling knew the script, so he had already made people keep an eye on the city lord that the Zhao family would contact.

At first, the Zhao family wanted to pay some price for the city lord of Qianliu City to attack Yunfu City, but while the letter was still on its way to Qianliu City, Qianliu City was captured by the chief steward.

Therefore, the person who delivered the letter was caught by the chief steward, and is still being held in Qianliu City Prison.

It is estimated that the Zhao family did not expect Yunfu City to move so quickly, let alone Qianliu City to be attacked in just a few days.

According to Xiang Canling, the Qianliu City's aristocratic families contributed a lot to the fact that Qianliu City could be defeated.

He knew very well how the big housekeeper captured Qianliu City through the reports from the army personnel. Although the big housekeeper had a design relationship there, if the family was not so afraid of death, they would just let the soldiers guarding the city go to the big housekeeper. Isn’t there nothing?

Oh, it can't be said that nothing happened. According to the temperament and strength of the big housekeeper, it is only a matter of time before he takes Qianliu City, and the behavior of the Qianliu City family only speeds up the process.

"This is this?" Feng Pingshi took the paper and looked through it one by one. The more he read, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't help but ask.

Xiang Canling stood up, put his hands behind his back, looked out the window, and said: "This is a letter from the major families in Yunfu City to contact other city lords. Among them, the Zhao family in Nanzhi has the most frequent contact."

"Why did the Zhao family in Nanzhi..." Feng Pingshi asked a little confused, but before he could say anything, Xiang Canngling snatched his words.

"Why are you attacking Yunfu City?" Xiang Canling turned to look at him.

"Because the head of the Zhao family in Yunfu City is the grandson of the original head of the Zhao family in Nanzhi, even though this grandson is an illegitimate son, the Zhao family feels that this is an offense to them." Xiang Canling said with a deep look.

Then he said: "Don't you know why Butler Shen went to attack Qianliu City? Because the Zhao family gave Qianliu City a reward that they couldn't refuse. I hope they can send troops to hold Yunfu City accountable."

"So, even if we don't fight, the opponent will fight. In that case, why not strike first? At least we have the initiative. Sometimes offense is the best defense."

"Qianliu City was defeated in such a short period of time. I believe that even if other city lords want to cooperate with the Zhao family, they will consider whether they have the ability to attack Yunfu City."

Xiang Canling turned to look at the blue sky outside the window and spoke slowly.

Feng Pingshi looked at the young man with his back turned to him, and was extremely amazed. The city lord was already a qualified city lord, and he was better than the previous city lords in Yunfu City.

Ambitious, strategic, and capable, Yunfu City has such a city lord, so why not be happy?

Actually...

Xiang Canling was very happy when she saw Feng Pingshi's admiration in her heart.

The above remarks were the political lessons assigned to him by the chief steward. According to the chief steward: As a city lord, you must not let others lie. Even if there is a mistake, there must be a reason for the mistake!

He thought a lot about this, and based on the butler's suggestions, he came up with these reasonable reasons. Even if they were the ones who made the first move this time, they could still get rid of the pot!

This huge pile of intelligence letters is the evidence!

Only a small half of these evidences are true, just like the family's contact with other city lords is true, but they just feel that Yunfu City is not safe.

Recently, all the big families in Yunfu City have fallen, and they have been killed and punished. The remaining families are very afraid that it will be their turn next, so they want to move away, hoping that the city lords of other cities will agree.

This matter is neither big nor small, but now that it is in Xiang Canling's hands, even if it is a small matter, it can be elevated to a big event!

As for the letter between the Nanzhi Zhao family and the lord of Qianliu City, this is true, but it is just a discussion of cooperation. But before they arrived at Qianliu City, Qianliu City was captured and the person was detained by the chief steward. The reason for the detention was said to be the big housekeeper. The housekeeper didn't like him.

Although it was ridiculous, the soldiers did not dare to disobey him. They originally thought that the other party was very unlucky and could be imprisoned for a few days. However, after searching for the letter, he suddenly realized that Butler Shen was right to dislike him.

As for the other letters, they were all forgeries. After all, there had to be an excuse after the war, otherwise he would really have become the criminal who started the Beiyu War.

It was clear that he was not the initiator, yet he still had to shoulder the blame.

Xiang Canling was a little sad.

As for why the chief steward went to attack Qianliu City, how could he possibly know?Xiang Canling guessed that the city lord or someone of Qianliu City might have provoked him, so he went to attack Qianliu City.

It’s impossible to know that Qianliu City will come to attack them in the future, so they take action in advance, right?

The big housekeeper has not read the original work, and he does not seem to be reborn, so Xiang Canling guessed that the people from Qianliu City may have offended him. After all, the big housekeeper has not liked anything he has seen recently, and everyone is in his eyes. Offal and garbage.
