After hearing Cai Xi's words, Cai Mao understood immediately.
My father is avoiding the edge for now and is taking his time to figure it out.
That's right, the powerful people in our family are not good at direct confrontation. The right way is to slowly figure it out.
You, Liu Bei, can't govern Jingzhou without the support of our powerful family. I'm not afraid that you won't exchange benefits when the time comes.
Otherwise, even if we, the Cai family, take action, other powerful families will be unable to sit still.
At that time, our Cai family will be able to reap the benefits.
I don't know how much better than my own method of getting ahead.
Cai Mao was sincerely convinced: "My father really had foresight. Mao knew he was wrong."
Cai Xi couldn't help but feel relieved to see Cai Mao realize his mistake and sincerely admit it.
This is also the reason why I chose Cai Mao as the clan leader.
It is true that Cai Mao is somewhat arrogant and proud.
However, one thing he has is that he corrects his mistakes when he knows they are wrong.
With this, it is enough to maintain the momentum of the Cai family.
Because the Cai family is now powerful enough, it is extremely difficult to break through.
Cai Mao listened to his old father's words, dispersed his clan soldiers, and went to Yicheng with only a few people.
He went not to help Li Zheng, but to clear up the relationship with Li Zheng and give Chen Yuan a big gift.
Cai Mao's father gave up the idea of confronting Chen Yuan, while Chen Yuan quickly approached Yicheng.
When they arrived at the gate of Yicheng City, the soldiers who defended the city immediately closed the city gate when they saw the army approaching.
Chen Yuan directly revealed his identity and left through the city gate without any delay.
He was afraid that Li Zheng would get the news and run away.
This guy used boys and girls to practice, and he probably followed some evil path. If he ran away, it would be a problem.
Therefore, Chen Yuan did not dare to delay at all.
He took Dian Wei and Kuai Yue and rushed directly to the county government, and also had people control the four gates of Yicheng. No one was allowed to leave the city. Anyone who dared to disobey the order would be killed without mercy.
After arriving at the county government office, he waved his hand and asked soldiers to surround the county government office. Then he and Dian Wei rushed to the county government office.
At this time, Li Zheng had already reacted.
As the magistrate of Yicheng County and an out-and-out local snake, he naturally has his own channels for obtaining information.
If even people arrived at the county government office and he didn't know about it, then his county magistrate wouldn't be able to do what he is today.
Therefore, before Chen Yuan could take action, Li Zheng walked out with a livid face.
He did not salute, but glared at Chen Yuan: "Chen Biejia, why did you raise troops to surround my Yicheng County Yamen?"
Chen Yuan looked at Li Zheng, and the more he looked at him, the more disgusting he felt.
Chen Yuan didn't say much, and directly threw a bamboo slip in front of Li Zheng: "See for yourself, a heinous person like you has the nerve to steal the position of county king. It's really heart-breaking. It's not enough if I don't kill you today."
The common people are angry, and if I don’t kill you, you will not be able to uphold the right path.”
Hearing this, Li Zheng immediately retorted: "Chen Biejia, please don't slander anyone. Although I, Li Zheng, cannot be said to be a wise minister or an official, I can be regarded as diligent if I ask myself. Why did Chen Biejia say such evil things and want to kill me?"
, even if you, Chen Zichu, are the governor of the state capital, you don’t have the power to kill a Bailihou, right? How can Chen Bieji set the court’s laws by doing this?”
Good guy, this Li Zheng has something, and he can even think of beating him up at this time.
Chen Yuan sneered: "It's so scary to say that you still want to make excuses at this stage. Just take a look at your own crime."
Li Zheng also sneered and opened the bamboo slips.
Then his expression changed, and the more he looked at it, the uglier he became. By the end, Li Zheng was already panicking.
Because his crimes are clearly recorded in this bamboo slip, including when and where, how many people he harmed, how much he gained, etc., without any omission.
Chen Yuan looked at Li Zheng's increasingly ugly face and snorted coldly: "Li Zheng, you persecute the people and cannibalize people for cultivation. This is a heinous crime. Now I will kill you here on behalf of the state capital. What else do you have?"
You can talk."
At this time, Li Zheng knew that it was useless to argue, but he was unwilling to die like this.
By the way, I have done a lot of things for the Cai family, and the Cai family said they would protect me.
Li Zheng raised his head, his eyes wandered among the crowd, and began to look for the Cai family.
Chen Yuan saw Li Zheng's behavior and knew that he was waiting for Cai to save him.
To be honest, Chen Yuan also had some doubts in his heart.
Logically speaking, Cai's people should have arrived.
He didn't believe that Cai's arrival was slower than his own from Xiangyang. After all, Caizhou was much closer to Yicheng than Xiangyang.
However, there is no movement from Mr. Cai now. What is Mr. Cai thinking?
At this moment, the crowd suddenly parted, and Cai Hao stood up with several followers.
Seeing Cai Mao, Li Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up and he shouted quickly: "Mr. Degui, save me!"
Cai Mao ignored Li Zheng, walked up to Chen Yuan and saluted, "Cai Mao has seen you."
Chen Yuan glanced at Cai Mao: "Degui appears in Yicheng at this time, is it to save this villain?"
Li Zheng looked at Cai Mao expectantly, hoping that Cai Mao would admit it.
But Cai Mao glanced at Li Zheng coldly: "Don't be ridiculous. I, Mr. Cai, have always been clean and self-sufficient. How could I have anything to do with such a heinous person? I came to Yicheng this time because my father asked me, Mr. Xuande, and others."
I offer you a gift as a token of my welcome to Mr. Xuande when he arrives in Jingzhou."
When Li Zheng heard this, his eyes were full of disbelief.
Immediately, Li Zheng, who is also the most powerful family member, suddenly understood that the Cai family had given up on him.
Obviously, the Cai family would not quarrel with the state capital for the sake of a county magistrate.
However, aren't the Cai family afraid that they will let their affairs out?
However, when he thought of Cai's power, Li Zheng gave up this idea.
Even if I tell the truth about Cai Shi, I can't touch Cai Shi at all.
On the contrary, it will make Mr. Cai hate him, and may even cause trouble for Mr. Li of Zhao County.
Therefore, Li Zheng wisely did not say much, but it was impossible for him to give up and die here.
Therefore, Li Zheng began to prepare secretly.
Chen Yuan was secretly surprised by Cai Mao's words.
This attitude is completely different from last time. What's going on?
Cai Mao waved his hand, and an attendant handed him a box.
He handed the box to Chen Yuan with both hands, and Chen Yuan reached out and took it.
After Cai Mao handed it to Chen Yuan, he said: "The gift in the box is my sincerity, Mr. Cai. I hope you can take more care of it in the future."
After finishing speaking, Cai Mao glanced at Li Zheng: "I'm sure you have something important to do, so I won't disturb you too much and I'll take my leave."
After saying that, Cai Mao turned around and left, neatly and without any sloppiness.
Chen Yuan held the box and looked at Cai Hao's figure, thoughtfully.
