at this time.

Liangzhou Prefecture.

Chen Ping was sitting in his study, surrounded by several military advisors and think tanks.

"Sir, the White Cliff Army has been quite active in Liangzhou recently. I'm afraid they have bad intentions!"

Chen Ping's face darkened, he tapped his fingers on the table, and said slowly: "Recently, I have been wondering whether the assassination incident outside Yinzhou was caused by the Baiya Army!"

Everyone was shocked.

They would not have been so suspicious before, but as the Yinzhou Chamber of Commerce has become famous in the past few days and has been in the limelight for a while, it is not impossible.

"But sir, if the White Cliff Army is dealing with the Liu family and his son, wouldn't this be playing into our hands?"

"The Liu family and his son are definitely not good people!"

"Sir, the Empress must have something up her sleeve when she comes back to visit her relatives this time! If the Baiya Army really joins forces with the Empress, our Liangzhou Prefecture will be in dire straits at that time!"

Chen Ping nodded.

He felt that his brain was hurting. What he didn't know was that the assassin who assassinated that day was originally Zheng Yueru. Now everyone believed that the assassins were Liu and his son. This situation made him a little confused. It also made Liangzhou's people a little confused.

No one can guess.

This was the smoke bomb Liu Zheng deliberately released.

"Haha, what do you mean, are you trying to win over the Liu family and his son?"

Chen Ping asked with a smile.

He felt that this matter was extremely absurd. The Liu family and his son, who had never been taken seriously before, have now become a place where they can tip the balance?

A military advisor said: "Sir, can't you tell that the Liu family has taken over all the ceremonial duties of the Oiran Association? They must be trying to please the empress in order to obtain the title of Marquis of the state!"

Everyone thought so.

"Sir, the Empress has great ambitions. She has Zheng Yuxing in the army, and there is Baiya in the north. If there is Yinzhou in the west, it will be strategically disadvantageous for our prefecture! Although Yinzhou is barren, with Yangzhou, it occupies a corner.

It must not be ignored!”

"Yes, sir!"

"If this happens, the governor's mansion will be in danger!"

Chen Ping didn't know the current situation, and said angrily: "No need to talk nonsense, I am a dignified prefect, and I can still restrain a female prostitute. Wouldn't it make the prince of Jinghua laugh at my incompetence!"

Everyone gave suggestions.

The Holy Emperor is still alive, and the Queen's power is irreversible. The Prefect's Mansion should step back and avoid its sharp edges. On the one hand, it is a compromise with the Queen, and on the other hand, it strives to win over the Liu family and his son, and vigorously support the Yinzhou Chamber of Commerce to fight against the Baiya Army's business group.

"You guys, please go down..."

Chen Ping felt extremely tired after hearing this.

Fight for Liu Dahao?

He was absolutely unwilling to give in, but what could he do at this time? The queen was powerful, and Zheng Yuxing was in charge of the army, so Chen Ping was already at a disadvantage. But... use the Yinzhou Chamber of Commerce to fight against the Baiya Chamber of Commerce

?What if raising tigers causes trouble?

"Call the lady over here!"

Thoughts were flying, Chen Ping finally said helplessly.

...

The Queen's ceremonial guard marched forward slowly.

At this time, a fast horse in the army sent another letter.
