God-Level Brat System - Chapter 152
[Chapter 152 Reason]
While Ye Meng was secretly calculating, Lei Wanli led everyone into a large circular building.
After entering the building, everyone suddenly realized that this should be the city lord’s meeting room.
After arriving at the meeting room, the smile on Lei Wanli’s face completely withdrew. He turned around, glanced at everyone, and said lightly.
“Sit down!”
As he said that, he leaned on a low couch and lay down.
Lei Wanli was fat and it was inconvenient for him to sit for a long time, so he would prepare a low couch no matter what the occasion.
Everyone found a chair and sat down.
Perhaps because of Lei Wanli’s explanation, at this time, in the meeting room, except Lei Wanli and everyone, there was no one to serve, even Lei Wanli’s personal guards were not here.
“Tell me, Li Chengming, what exactly do you want to do in my Pancheng?”
Lei Wanli’s voice sounded, and there was no previous courtesy in his words, and he asked directly.
Hearing that Lei Wanli had forced everyone back for this matter, Li Chengming immediately smiled bitterly.
“Brother Lei, I, Li Chengming, never tell lies. Don’t you trust me?”
“I have been in charge of Ancheng for so many years. Have I ever crossed the line? Brother Lei, think about it carefully!”
After hearing Li Chengming’s words, Lei Wanli snorted.
“I am so easy to talk to because I know what kind of person you are, Li Chengming. Otherwise, if it were any other official, I would have killed him on the spot. Why did I let him live until now?”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this and looked up at Lei Wanli.
“Brother Li, it’s not that I don’t believe you, but the alliance has been pushing us too hard these years. We, the local officials, are all in a panic!”
The alliance and the local officials have been fighting to the death for their own interests. This is known to everyone on the Azure Star and is not a secret.
“You, Li Chengming, are from the Li family in the capital. Brother Song and Brother Shen who are present are also from aristocratic families. As for the rest, they are either your relatives or your confidants. I don’t think they will be on the same side with the alliance, right?”
Li Chengming and others nodded when they heard this.
Li Chengming was born in the Li family in the capital. Although he was an official appointed by the alliance, he certainly was not on the same side with the alliance. Otherwise, why would he, a member of the Li family, be assigned to a small place like Ancheng?
“Then I’ll be frank. I got the news ten days ago that the alliance was going to send experts to sneak into our Pancheng. Now you, Li Chengming, come here uninvited. Can I not think too much?”
Lei Wanli said with a bitter look on his face.
He was somewhat exhausted from fighting against such a large alliance with the power of Pancheng.
But how could he be willing to give up Pancheng? After all, Pancheng was a foundation passed down by his ancestors to this day. How could he lose it in his hands?
Li Chengming and the others suddenly realized what was going on.
“Brother Lei, I crossed the line this time by accident. I am so ashamed that you misunderstood me!”
Lei Wanli waved his hand and said.
“Forget it! I believe your words, but I also have my own intentions when I forced you to come to Pancheng!”
“After all, you crossed the line. If I, Lei Wanli, don’t make some statement, what will the people on the alliance think of you? If I issue a transfer order to transfer you, Li Chengming, from Ancheng, then I will be surrounded by enemies!”
At this point, Lei Wanli shook his head.
Hearing Lei Wanli’s words, Li Chengming felt ashamed. Just as he was about to speak, a strange sound suddenly came from his ear.
