Chapter 301 Failure

Zhang Wenlai was simply pissed off by these people.

After the plague has completely stabilized, Marquis Yongning should have packed up and prepared to return to Beijing to report, but he did not. Instead, he had no intention of leaving at all.

Everyone was puzzled, but those who were tactful did not ask any more questions.

Zhang Wenlai felt that the main reason why Yongning Hou was not leaving now was because of Qi Anyi.

It was indeed because of Qi Anyi.

Yongning Hou was standing at the gate of the courtyard, with Zhang Wenlai following behind him.

But now is not the time to go to the news about Qi Anyi's involvement in this matter. Cao Anshan rarely intervenes in the plague and the development of pills. After all, this person's focus has always been on finding the specific cause of the plague.

The first person to know that the plague was related to Qi Anyi was Cao Anshan, but he has always been taciturn and has little presence, always looking honest and working hard.

Qi Anyi thought he had hidden his tail well, but he could not stop Cao Anshan, who had been focusing on finding the main cause of the plague from the beginning. He knew a lot of clues, and all these clues pointed to Qi Anyi.

But Cao Anshan didn't say it, just to let Qi Anyi relax his vigilance.

Yongning is waiting now, waiting for Cao Anshan to sort out all the evidence until it is foolproof, and waiting for you to come to the capital for support.

Because Yongning Hou knew that Qi Anyi still had a trump card, and the people he had brought with him were not enough. The people in the City Lord's Mansion were paying attention to the affairs of Qi Anyi's house, while Qi Anyi was paying attention to the affairs of the City Lord's Mansion.

Both sides have planted a lot of people and spies in each other's territory.

Moreover, neither side intends to break the current situation now and will maintain the status quo temporarily.

And each of them is brewing a big move.

Over the past half month, the plague in Nanyu City has completely stabilized.

It turned out that at the time when the plague was at its most severe, the only things on the streets besides corpses were people who could not control their illness and were falling ill.

Now, all the shops and stalls in the city's main streets are busy with their own business, and there are vague traces of the scenes before the plague.

The only difference is that these people all wear square scarves to cover their mouths and noses in order to prevent the plague from raging again.

After all, no matter how many pills there are, they cannot withstand the speed of the plague's spread and the high mortality rate after the disease breaks out.

The brief period of peace and tranquility ended when Qi Anyi suddenly sent troops to attack the city lord's mansion at night.

Sure enough, the first person to fall out was Qi Anyi.

These were the thoughts in the mind of Marquis Yongning as he was forced to get up from his couch after the night attack.

No one knew where Qi Anyi found these people from, but there seemed to be several hundred of them. Now they were surrounding the City Lord's Mansion on all sides.

It seems that this will make them surrender.

The person standing at the front of the crowd was Qi Anyi. The kindness he had shown in the past few days was completely torn apart at this moment, and now there was only disdain, arrogance and determination on his face.

The people of Qi Anyi did not immediately enter the mansion and kill everyone, but stood outside the door and tried to convince people with reason.

This hypocritical look was really disgusting. Yongning Hou stood there calmly, looking at the hundreds of people around him who were brought by Qi Anyi. He didn't say much. Now on the surface, Zhang Wenlai and others were trapped in the City Lord's Mansion and could not go out.

In fact, Qi Anyi's persuasion failed, and he was unable to persuade Yongning Hou and Zhang Wenlai to join his camp.

Since they can't become his own people, then they can only die. Only when they die, this Nanyu City will be his.

Qi Anyi has now completely lost his rationality and is obsessed with conquering Nanyu City. Even though he knows that he is doomed to die, he is still unwilling to accept the fate. Before he dies, he will definitely drag someone to be buried with him.

Just like the current City Lord's Mansion, if there was no Zhang Wenlai, if there was no Yongning Hou, and if there was no Doctor Li who popped out of nowhere, and those team leaders who betrayed them, how could they have succeeded.

If he had not succeeded, then all the people in Nanyu City would have respected him, and he would have returned to the capital as he wished with these achievements, and then he would have found an opportunity to let Qi Yunjin take back his throne. The future was bright, but the current reality was bleak.

It's a fight to the death.

Thinking of this, Qi Anyi's eyes turned vicious, and without considering other things, he directly ordered these hundreds of people to attack the City Lord's Mansion and kill everyone inside without leaving a single person alive.

As for Qi Anyi himself, he did not go in, but just watched the ensuing killing from outside.

Marquis Yongning saw that Qi Anyi was about to invade the City Lord's Mansion without any reason, and he originally wanted to say something, but now it seems that it is completely unnecessary.

Yongning glanced at Zhang Wenlai, who was glaring at Qi Anyi not far away with a face full of resentment, and called him.

Zhang Wenlai subconsciously turned his head to look at Yongning Hou, waiting for his next instructions.

Yongning Hou did not say anything else, but just ordered in a calm voice: "I will go to find Cao Anshan now. Next, please trouble City Lord Zhang to arrange the group of people in the backyard to the underground secret passage we prepared in advance."

Zhang Wenlai nodded and said he understood.

Marquis Yongning stood still, just watching Zhang Wenlai's figure getting farther and farther away, until he could no longer see his back, then he continued to focus his gaze on Qi Anyi who was standing not far away and Qi Anyi's subordinates who were about to approach him.

The secret guards who had been waiting behind Marquis Yongning for a long time immediately rushed forward and killed everyone close to Marquis Yongning one by one.

Marquis Yongning naturally did not just stand there and rely on these secret guards to protect himself. After he saw that the situation was almost ready, he took out a firework from his arms, quickly lit it with a fire starter, and released it into the air.

Qi Anyi looked at Yongning Hou's series of actions and seemed to have thought of something. There was a momentary ferocious look on his face, which disappeared in a flash.

However, his original relaxed and happy expression was gone, replaced by alertness and ferocity, his eyes staring straight at Yongning Hou.

Yongning Hou stood there and looked back at him, without any intention of admitting defeat. At the same time, there was no expression on his face. He just looked at the chaos at the scene objectively and coldly.

After all, their support has arrived.

Led by Cao Anshan in the front, his comrade Qi Anyi behind him brought several hundred people, nearly twice the number of people, to the scene.

With the crushing numerical advantage, everyone present seemed to have seen the outcome.

Qi Anyi was surrounded in the middle of this group of people. Unless he led his people to fight his way out, he would just stand here and wait for death.
