Zhaoyang City must not be lost!
Not just to save his own life, from the moment when Hou Yuxiao personally ended Ren Feng, who had been the County Lord for twenty years, he had already regarded this city as his own private property!
This was not a delusional thought; after Ren Feng's death, even if the county appointed another County Lord, the current Hou Family was confident and strong enough to control him.
And the new Magistrate, Cheng Yue, had taken office less than a day before Zhaoyang had faced this great disaster. Although the primary responsibility could not really be attributed to him, things had already happened, and those holding the positions of County Lord and Magistrate could hardly be absolved of blame.
With Ren Feng dead, leaving only Cheng Yue, it would be difficult for him not to be held responsible.
Hou Yuxiao had an eye on Zhaoyang not just for a day or two; for the present Hou Family, the advantages of this city were too great!
