For a moment, Gu Beiting couldn't grasp Wu Zhi's true thoughts.
Right now, the most important thing for him is to survive.
"He didn't pick up on Wu Zhi's words, but challenged Wu Zhi to say what he wanted to hear," he said.
"Going back to King Yan, Shaoxing Magistrate Ma Hantai has more than 2,000 soldiers under his command. He knows you are coming and is clamoring to surround you and all your men."
"I know that with King Yan's strength, let alone Ma Hantai's 2,000 men, even if he has 20,000 men, he can still take his lead among the tens of thousands of troops."
"I dare not be your enemy. I can only drag my family with me and flee Shaoxing."
Wu Zhi nodded: "Well, that's right. I like your rhetoric. Continue."
Gu Beiting felt a little relieved when he saw that Wu Zhi seemed to be easier to talk to than the legend said.
He added: "I am a rotten person, but I can always survive no matter where I go. I would like to ask King Yan to spare the lives of my family."
"If King Yan has any errands, just ask, I will do my best to help King Yan capture Shaoxing!"
Wu Zhi laughed and reached out to pat his shoulder again.
"What you just said is right, just Ma Hantai's two thousand cats and dogs are not enough for me to stuff between my teeth."
"So, you don't have to worry about how to defeat Shaoxing and how to kill Ma Hantai."
"However, there is one thing I really want you to help me with."
Gu Beiting shuddered and responded immediately.
"King Yan, please speak!"
Wu Zhi said: "I am not familiar with Shaoxing. After it is conquered, someone will always need to manage it."
"I see that you are familiar with people here in Shaoxing and know more than me."
"How about you become the prefect of Shaoxing after I kill Ma Hantai?"
Wu Zhi shocked Gu Beiting!
No matter how active his mind was, he never imagined that Wu Zhi would make such a decision.
Normal people, in order to show their strength and courage, will definitely kill chickens and scare monkeys after taking over a place.
No need to think about it, this chicken must be Gu Beiting.
"Monkey, if Ma Hantai is not worthy, he will be the rich officials and gentry of Shaoxing Prefecture."
But he didn¡¯t expect that Wu Zhi would let him be the prefect!
And Wu Zhi did not shy away from this aspect, he said it directly in front of Bai Qianqian and her subordinates.
¡°As for me, I am a straight person and I don¡¯t like to mince words, so I tell the truth.¡±
"You are a bit bad, but not bad to the core."
"It is said that in troubled times, we should use heavy codes. Under the governance of Ma Hantai, Shaoxing has probably been rotten to the core, and you know very well how rotten it is."
"You can also figure out the bad tempers of the wealthy officials and gentry in Shaoxing Mansion, and you also know how to deal with them. Unlike me, I only know how to kill!"
Wu Zhi¡¯s last words revealed his murderous intent, which made Gu Beiting¡¯s heart tremble with fear!
"So, I will make an appointment for you as the new Shaoxing magistrate."¦Ø¦Ø
"I will ask for your life from the emperor. You don't have to think about it. Just respond to me, are you the prefect of Shaoxing or not?"
Although Wu Zhi was smiling when he spoke.
But the threat revealed in the words is too obvious!
Even the people next to him felt the powerful pressure released by Wu Zhi!
Gu Beiting was horrified. These days, he has only heard of threatening money and land, but he has never heard of threatening others to become officials!
And before Gu Beiting spoke, Wu Zhi said something to Gu Beiting's mother with a smile on his face.
"Old madam, as the saying goes, good will be rewarded with good and evil will be punished with evil. Although I have never been to the eighteenth level of hell, I was lucky enough to have a peek at the view of the underworld once."
"Your son has done a lot of bad things over the years. What we people value in life is balance. If we don't want you to suffer in the underworld after death."
"Your son will do a lot of good deeds for you next. I don't think I can say more about this. You should know it very well."
