As the door slowly opened, heavy sounds were heard, interrupting Leng Ye's thoughts.

I saw a young man walking out from inside. Seeing Leng Ye standing outside the door, he hurriedly stepped forward and said respectfully: "Sir, my master is not here. I will send someone to ask the city lord to come back. Please wait for a moment." !”

The city lord had given instructions when he left that there would be a distinguished person visiting today, and there was no doubt about the person in front of him.

Leng Ye nodded slightly. As for the city lord of Yanbei City, Leng Ye also sent someone to inquire about it, and they were loyal to their duties. However, the power of Yanbei City has long been emptied out by the three major families. Even the city lord has no ability to check and balance. What can be done to him? I also do my best to do my job,

Of course, these are only one-sided words. You need to see it personally to know the specifics. If you are a useful person, you can stay. If you are complicit in it, then there is no need to exist.

Thinking of this, a trace of murderous intent flashed in Leng Ye's eyes. The people here are already so miserable. If they are still to be tortured like this by his own people, then this city lord is really worse than a pig or a dog.

Without keeping Leng Ye waiting for long, Gan Tianrui hurried over in a short while. Looking at Leng Ye's figure, his nose burst into tears and he leaned over to salute, as if he was seeing a long-lost relative.

Looking at Gan Tianrui's outfit, Leng Yi couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth slightly. He swore that this was the most miserable city lord he had ever seen.

Leng Ye couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. This man with patches all over his body and messy hair was really the Lord of a city? Wasn't he just a beggar randomly found by others to pretend to be? But I also know that no one will come and pretend to be the city lord, and he is still such a down-and-out city lord.

Gan Tianrui also knew that his outfit was a little unsatisfactory, so he straightened his clothes, looked at Leng Ye sheepishly and said, "Don't blame me, General, I'm rude, but I can't do anything about it! This has already happened." These are the best clothes for me, my life is so miserable!"

As he was about to cry again, Leng Yi stepped forward to stop him, looked at him and asked: "Okay! Of course our general understands your pain, you'd better tell me what happened to Yanbei. Let’s do it!”

Listening to Leng Yi's question, Gan Tianrui's eyes flashed with light. He was not born and raised here. At the beginning, he came here full of joy and ambition, ready to shine and make a difference.

Unexpectedly, not only did he become the lord of Yanbei City in a daze, but he also took over the current mess. He had no choice but to continue to maintain it. Now that he finally saw the light of day, how could he not be excited, and even looked at Leng Ye He started talking in detail,

"Nowadays, Yanbei City is dominated by three major families. They are the Hua family, the Yuan family, and the Luo family. They usually don't take me as the city lord seriously at all. They not only openly challenge my authority in decision-making, but also They have to be involved in some cases and restrict my rights, which is really hateful!"

As Gan Tianrui spoke, he punched the table heavily, and then he couldn't help but hold his palms and cry. It took a long time to slowly regain his composure, his eyes full of resentment.

The reason why he is so cowardly is because he has no choice. Now in Yanbei City, there are three major families in charge. He has no room to speak at all. Even though many court officials came, but in the end everything was ignored. Now he can only I place my trust in the newcomer in front of me, hoping that he can break this situation and restore the original peace to the people here.

Leng Ye looked at Gan Tianrui's accusations and couldn't help but his eyes moved slightly. It seemed that if he wanted to completely control this place, the first step was to dismantle the three major families one by one. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of effort.

Seeing Leng Ye's lack of reaction, Gan Tianrui couldn't help but feel a sinking feeling in his heart. He really couldn't figure out his nature. He didn't know whether the person in front of him would fight against them or whether he would be like the people in the past and join in their evil deeds. Thinking of this, Gan Tianrui's eyes were filled with tears. There was a flash of vigilance, and the eyes looking at Leng Ye were also a little appreciative.

Leng Ye thought for a moment and already had a plan in his mind. Then he looked at Gan Tianrui and was stunned when he saw the contempt in his eyes. It had only been a while, but he didn't know what he was thinking about. No wonder they would elect him as the leader. The city lord, with such a dumbfounded look, is really easy to control.

Then he looked at him and asked: "Now that the three major families have deep roots here, it will not be possible to overthrow them overnight. What we have to do now is to let them dig their own graves, and they will naturally give up! ",

Gan Tianrui's eyes lit up after hearing Leng Ye's words. These had always been his wish. Unexpectedly, the person in front of him actually said what he meant.

He quickly looked at Leng Ye and said, "This is all my wish! But it's not easy to make them give in! You must know that they are all thieves. I'm afraid it will be difficult to snatch food from their tiger's mouth!" Gan Tianrui couldn't help but feel melancholy when he thought that he had thought of ways over the years, but all of them failed.

Seeing him looking so discouraged, Leng Ye couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly, a coldness flashed in his eyes, and then said casually: "Don't worry! They will naturally come to your door automatically!"

Seeing his calm and relaxed look, Gan Tianrui couldn't help but calm down. Then he looked at Leng Ye and the two of them and said, "It's getting late now. Why don't you two stay in the house temporarily so that I can entertain you two?"

Leng Ye looked at his incomprehensible expression and couldn't help but twitch his brows. Was he trying to entertain them, or was he preparing to drive them away? Thinking of his plan, Leng Ye looked at him and said, "That's fine, I'll ask Mr. Gan to arrange it!"

Gan Tianrui couldn't help but frown, and couldn't help but mutter in his heart, "Why is it different from what I thought! In this situation, shouldn't it be better to take him out to have a meal together? He now has a breeze in his sleeves, and he wants to take it What to entertain him?" Seeing that Leng Ye had made up his mind to stay here, Gan Tianrui had no choice but to pour out the few pieces of broken silver he had from his boots and let people go out to buy some food.

Leng Yi couldn't help but twitch his mouth when he saw how weird he was. Then he looked at Leng Ye and saw that he had no reaction. He withdrew his hand that was about to take out the banknote. Since the master wanted to see it, he couldn't. Mind your own business, after all, it's quite interesting to see him so entangled.

The two simply ate something and then settled in under Gan Tianrui's arrangement. Yuan Zishang ran straight out from Leng Ye's side, and then came to Yuan's house, looking at the big red lantern hanging high in front of the door. Yuan Zishang breathed a sigh of relief as he seemed to be in a different world from the city lord's palace.
