When Xu Hui and Zhang Ji arrived, many people had gathered outside the Wobing Tower. In addition to Yang Yong and others from the county government office, there were also representatives of major families.

This group of people occupied a building across the street and were carefully observing the situation inside the Wobing Building.

Whether it is the Liu family, Peng family, Chen family, Zhang family, etc., after receiving the news, they will send people as soon as possible, saying that they will do their best to help the government as long as they need it.

The major families in Pengcheng are not stupid. They are very clear about the situation. If something happens to Zhuge Yan, not only will the government be in trouble, but none of them will escape.

Although there are many people in the major families who are officials in the court, forming a complex network of village party and interpersonal people. But no matter how huge and complicated the network is, once something happened to Zhuge Yan, the mere interests of them cannot be protected. From top to bottom, the entire Pengcheng gentry will be in trouble.

In view of this, they had no choice but to choose and have to choose to provide help to the government at this time.

Under their orders, the entire Pengcheng became chaotic for this matter.

Now that Xu Hui and Zhang Ji arrived, in addition to the many officials in the government, were the patriarchs of several major families.

"Minister, you are here. Whenever you need to use our place, we have no choice."

"Yes, what's the need, just one sentence!"

"I have been waiting here for a long time, but I don't know how to deal with it. As soon as you come, you finally have a backbone."

...

As these words came into Xu Hui's ears, the county magistrate suddenly felt a little overwhelmed, his mind became even more confused, and he had to say polite words.

He was very clear about the ideas and concerns of the major families. His statement at this time was not just a formality, but was really willing to help. However, the prerequisite for help was to figure out the situation, otherwise the more you help, the more you help, you might be self-defeating.

So Xu Huiqiang cheered up, sootheed everyone, and then summoned Yang Yong and others to inquire about the situation on the scene.

"Reported to the county magistrate, when the thieves came, they had gathered in the Wobing Tower. It was difficult to judge the specific situation. However, the people who followed him said that there were about eleven or two thieves coming here. They were initially scattered outside the building in the courtyard, and the inside was not clear. However, the thieves outside the building were particularly cruel. They fought with the guards of the Zhuge family and defeated all the guards! Then they dealt with the scene and quickly entered the building."

"Eleven or two people can cause these things? Can they defeat the guards of the Zhuge family?"

When Xu Hui heard this, his forehead was exposed. If he hadn't been concerned about the occasion and knew it was not the time, the anger would burst out on the spot. But even so, he asked in a bad tone: "Eleven or twelve people, even if they are all good players, will I have no way to deal with it? Didn't I have been there to get a good player from all over the county?"

Can a good player in an ordinary county compare with the fierce man who has fought and fought?

Yang Yong smiled bitterly in his heart, but Shangguan was furious. He dared not refute, so he could only briefly report the situation: "Most of the people have not been transferred, but who have arrived, and I wanted to enter the Wobing Tower to escort the guards, but in Mr. Zhuge's entourage, one of them looked down on our people after seeing them, so he drove them out directly, so he could not protect them nearby and could only disperse the surroundings. In addition, the thief was cunning. Before Wobing Tower took action, people made a noise in the north and mobilized many people. There was some emptiness here."

Xu Hui had heard Zhang Ji say this before coming. When he heard it again, his anger in his heart did not diminish at all. He had a little complaint about Zhuge Yan's accompanying people, but he would definitely not say it out. He just asked: "Where is the Zhuge family's own guard? The top family and the direct descendants, this personal guard must be top-notch, right? He was taken down by the thief so quickly? This is a thief. No matter how powerful he is, he can compare to my elite man?"

"How can the officials know this...?" Yang Yong was quite puzzled by this. It could only be attributed to Zhuge Yan's side being too careless, while the rebels sent the strongest elite.

Xu Hui shook his head helplessly, and his heart became more and more bitter. You said that Zhuge Yan and others were not useful to them, and they would not let our people go over to protect them. If something happened, they would implicate so many people. What is this?

No matter how much he complained, Xu Hui did not dare to let go and recruited the chief lieutenant, county lieutenant and others. These bureaucrats who were directly in charge of military affairs and public security were what he could rely on now, so he asked for countermeasures.

The commander Zhao Shu is still in a panic until now, because if something happens, others will just lose their official position, but he may die!

So when Xu Hui asked, he hurriedly told the situation, which was similar to what Yang Yong said, and it was not helpful to solve the dilemma.

However, the county magistrate Liu Yang reminded: "You reported to the county magistrate, in addition to Mr. Zhuge and others, there is also Chen Zhi, a son of the Chen family in Pengcheng. Maybe it should be helpful to ask the Chen family about the situation."

"Chen Zhi was also trapped inside?" Xu Hui's head hurt even more when he heard this. "That's right, I heard rumors in the city these two days that Chen Zhi received the invitation from Zhuge Yan, just today? Even he was trapped inside, alas..."

If it is more important than Xu Hui's heart, ten Chen Zhis are not as good as Zhuge Yan, but Chen Zhi is also valuable to Xu Hui. Whether it is the famous humanities and teachings in "The Master's Talk" or the manufacturing of farm tools such as Quyuan Ploughs, it will help Xu Hui go further in his career. If Chen Zhi has a problem, then there is no need to think about the contribution of humanities and encouragement of agriculture. But once Zhuge Yan falls here, there is no need to consider any career, and he can just retire and return home.

Therefore, it was a pity that Xu Hui heard that Chen Zhi was trapped in it, but his concerns were still concentrated on Zhuge Yan. He did not think that Chen Zhi could play any role in the building. No matter how good Chen Zhi was, what could it be for him to meet a murderer holding a sword? He could only retreat.

"Don't ask the Chen family anymore. I guess the Chen family will find a way to help me rescue Chen Zhi."

As Xu Hui expected, Chen Chi, who looked worried, came over after a while, and he was really here to ask for help.

There is no need to say much about Chen Zhi’s significance to the Chen family. Just look at the improvement of the Chen family’s status in Pengcheng after the New Year, you can know the clues. How can they bear the unexpected consequences of Chen Zhi?

But Xu Hui could not help, so he could only comfort him for a few words. After all, the Chen family is also a Pengcheng family, so he cannot let the family be confused, so as not to affect the entire situation.

Seeing that Chen Chi was not at ease, Xu Hui had to find an explanation: "This may not be a bad thing. Chen Zhi is a famous scholar in Pengcheng and a noble family. With him in it, he can help you. You also know who lives in the Wobing Tower now. This crisis is also a chance! How much credit would it be if he could save the noble person or even take down Wang Mi? How much benefit would it be? I also know the ability of Chen Zhi's virtuous nephew, and maybe he could give us a surprise this time."

Chen Chi couldn't hear this comforting words? But he couldn't, so he could only smile bitterly.

It is no secret that Chen Zhi was involved in this disaster in the Bing Tower. All major families already know that no one thinks that Chen Zhi can help in today's matter, and it would be good that he could not die.

"Minister, think of a solution again. My nephew has never experienced such a scene. I have heard that this group of thieves are quite cruel and have already killed a lot. What if..." Chen Chi is still waiting for it, but Xu Hui is already impatient.

The county magistrate was also worried, and it was already the limit to being able to comfort one or two words with patience. Now everything is complicated, so he has to stay in the middle. How can he have the leisure to listen to Chen Chi's noisy? He is going to scold him now.

When Zhang Ji saw the problem, he quickly led Chen Chi away, praising Chen Zhiji for his own appearance and reassuring him, but the aide also knew very well that this matter was not something Chen Zhi could do.

On the other side, Xu Hui and Duwei and others discussed: "Don't worry about so much, arrange people to surround Wobinglou, but don't attack rashly. Find someone to negotiate with Wang Mi to see if there is any turning point."

The commander Zhao Shu smiled bitterly: "I have already asked someone to shout, but there is no response at all. I think so, Wang Mi is also a person who is scattered across the three states and disturbs the counties. He has some insights on his own. If he causes such a thing, our county cannot take responsibility. How can he make any promises? It doesn't make sense."

"If you can't make sense, you have to say it!" Xu Hui said firmly, "Even if you can delay for a moment, it's good. Then arrange the man, you must rescue him. Listen! You should rescue him at all costs. As long as Zhuge Yan's people are fine, we will not have any trouble afterwards. Maybe we can make contributions, but once he is damaged, I don't need to emphasize the consequences to you."

The bitterness on Zhao Shu's face became even stronger, but he didn't dare to say more. He could only discuss the plan with a few colleagues around him, but they were all frowning and could not see a solution, so he could only arrange someone to dispatch the archers to come first.

County lieutenant Liu Yang looked up at the building and muttered: "I don't know what's going on inside. Wang Mi is too brave. He did this and was completely self-destructive from the world. He really couldn't figure out why he took this step and what kind of reliance?" As he said that, a look of hatred appeared in his eyes.

During the war two years ago, Wang Mi led his army to capture Pengcheng and killed many children from aristocratic families, including Liu Yang's relatives and friends.

"Could it be that this time, my son of the Pengcheng family will be given another one in his hands? Chen Zhi is in danger this time. Gang'er admires him the most. I hope Chen Zhi can be fine this time."

……………………

Chen Zhi, who was muttered by Liu Yang, was staring at Wang Mi holding a spear, estimating the man's force and combat power. Opposite Wang Mi, Zhuge Yan's third uncle fell to the ground covered in blood, not knowing his life and death.
