Creation Color Master
Chapter 254: Unwilling to Confront
Chen Gong looked at the familiar figure standing in front of him. Although the other person's eyes were full of anger, Chen Gong still behaved very politely.
Zhou Wenlong was well aware of Sun Anzheng's skills, so he knew that Chen Gong was no match for him. So he quickly stood behind Chen Gong, ready to guard against Sun Anzheng's sudden attack and injuring people at any time.
Chen Gong naturally knew why Sun Anzheng appeared here. From his performance, Chen Gong had seen through Sun Anzheng, but he and he were old acquaintances after all, so Chen Gong still ordered the servants to prepare tea.
"Please stop being so hypocritical. I feel sick when I see you."
Sun Anzheng had no intention of speaking to Chen Gong in a calm and friendly manner. He immediately brought the relationship between the two to the freezing point.
Chen Gong saw that Sun Anzheng had made everything clear, so he stopped hiding it and asked directly, "I wonder what the purpose of your visit is, Grand Administrator Sun?"
Sun Anzheng sneered and said, "Chen Gong, why do you ask when you already know the answer? Don't you know why I came here? You succeeded in taking the position of governor of Haozhou without making any noise, making my efforts worthless. You also dragged down the governor of Zhou, and you succeeded in becoming the governor. From now on, you have transformed from a crow into a phoenix. Aren't you very happy?"
As Sun Anzheng finished speaking, Chen Gong continued to look at Sun Anzheng, whose face was filled with anger.
Chen Ping and Cao Shen had amusement on their faces, looking at Sun Anzheng as if he was a fool.
Only Zhou Wenlong, who was standing behind Chen Gong, could not help but come forward and pointed at Sun Anzheng's nose and said, "Sun Anzheng, shut up. The emperor can only decide who he wants to be the governor. It is not up to you to say it."
"Also, you appear to be humble and kind on the surface, but in fact you are mean and will do anything to get what you want. Please clarify the situation before you sow discord. I volunteered to be demoted, and I also had a role in recommending Chen Gong to be the governor."
Sun Anzheng's face changed drastically when he heard this. "How can that be possible? I don't believe you can be so aware. That's the position of a state governor, handling all the policies of a state. It's a position that many people dream of. How can you just give up like that? I don't believe it."
Zhou Wenlong smiled and said, "You are too obsessed with fame and fortune. The reason why you have managed Liufeng County in an orderly manner over the years is just for your own political achievements. You only care about your official position and not the people at all."
Sun Anzheng heard this, his eyes widened and he said sternly: "Nonsense, everything I did was for the people, you are slandering me maliciously, I will go to the imperial capital to meet His Majesty."
Chen Gong looked at Sun Anzheng's crazy look and shouted, "Sun Anzheng, do you dare to swear to heaven that at the literary banquet, in order to put forward your own ideas and opinions and to get closer to yourself, you deliberately got him drunk at the literary banquet and made him look bad in front of everyone, causing him to lose his official position and completely disregarding our brotherhood. Do you dare to say that you didn't do these things?"
Zhou Wenlong showed a trace of contempt and said, "So our Sun Taishou is actually such a person. Fortunately, the current emperor is kind and benevolent. If the governor of Haozhou really fell into the hands of someone like you, I really don't know what kind of mess it would be in."
Seeing that his thoughts were exposed, Sun Anzheng smiled instead of getting angry and said, "Okay, okay, Zhou Wenlong, you are really magnanimous. You can give up the position of governor without hesitation. Why should I choose Chen Gong instead of me?"
Zhou Wenlong smiled and replied, "The reason is very simple. Lord Chen Gong's talent, political ability, and changes in the current situation are far superior to mine. This is why I chose Lord Chen Gong. I have also seen the changes in Haozhou in the past few days. I think what I did is right."
Sun Anzheng laughed loudly upon hearing this and said, "Great, great! It turns out that you are the ones behind all this. Today I tell you that you have won, and you don't have to take the position of governor."
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Chen Gong and Zhou Wenlong looked at the direction where Sun Anzheng left, and did not come back to their senses for a long time.
Chen Gong knew clearly that Sun Anzheng's political ability was still very high, but he was too obsessed with being an official, and in the end he resorted to all means and took a detour. Otherwise, he might be able to make a name for himself in the future and become a governor of a state.
It's a pity that everything was too late. Sun Anzheng resigned in anger and left. The most important thing was to select a new prefect.
After Sun Anzheng walked out of the governor's mansion, his eyes were full of unwillingness and anger. He slammed the official seal representing the prefect of Liufeng County in front of the door of the governor's mansion and disappeared.
A guard hurriedly picked up the official seal and ran into the governor's mansion.
Sun Anzheng used his Confucian magical powers to shrink the ground to an inch, and in the blink of an eye he arrived at a forest in the wild.
The angry Sun Anzheng vented his anger in the woods, turning the surroundings into a mess.
Finally, Sun Anzheng said viciously: "Okay, okay, Chen Gong and Zhou Wenlong, you are unkind, so don't blame me for being unjust. Sooner or later, I will take back my position as governor."
After saying that, he took out a token from his arms, on which was engraved a ferocious ghost with bared fangs and claws. It was the identity token of Ghost King Si.
No one had expected that Sun Anzheng, the prefect of Liufeng County, would actually mingle with people from Gui Guiwangsi in private.
On the other side, the three of them galloped on their horses and finally arrived at Songmu Village.
Chu Mo jumped off the horse and looked at the quiet village. It seemed deserted. Some snow had not melted in the shade of the roofs, and icicles were hanging under the eaves.
At this time, a middle-aged man in a red cloak and combat boots came over. He was about thirty years old, and his cultivation had reached the second level of awakening, making him a minor master.
"My name is Gao Fei, nice to meet you all."
Chu Mo looked around and asked casually, "How is it? Is there any unusual movement in the woods?"
Gao Fei immediately replied: "Since Lord Li ordered the scene to be sealed off, the brothers have been guarding the perimeter. There has been no unusual movement or noise. I suspect that the osmanthus willow not only sucks human blood, but also feeds on the surrounding monsters. Since arriving here, I have not seen a single monster."
Chu Mo nodded when he heard this. This was a good clue. The situation seemed to be more complicated than he had imagined.
Looking at the ghostly fog in the distance and the forest full of strange pines and cypresses, it gives people a gloomy and terrifying feeling at just one glance.
Chu Mo looked at the secret guards standing still and said to Li Ru, "Since we are already here and it is still early, let's go in and take a look at the true appearance of the hanging corpse osmanthus willow tree."
Hearing this, Li Ru nodded and said loudly: "Gao Fei, select seven secret guards to protect the safety of the adults. Let's go in and take a look."
After saying that, seven agile secret guards gathered around Chu Mo.
Chu Mo said to Lin Mingwei: "Mr. Lin, in order to reduce unnecessary casualties, how about you lead the way?"
Lin Mingwei said with a hint of excitement on his face: "Haha, great, I've been idle for a few days, so today is a good time to move around."
After saying that, he walked towards Qiansonglin first, and Li Ru followed closely behind him.
Seeing this, Chu Mo also stepped into the Thousand Pine Forest under the protection of seven secret guards.
