Ouyang Xiaoling obviously approached Zhu Yihai with a purpose, and when she got Zhu Yihai's invitation, she knew what Zhu Yihai meant by keeping her by her side, but she still agreed without hesitation.

Zhu Yihai got his wish, he was very happy in his heart, and he didn't want to wait any longer, even if he let Ouyang Xiaoling lead the way. went to Ouyang's house to check it out in person, and Ouyang Xiaoling happily agreed and accompanied her personally.

After Mao Wenlong said goodbye to Zhu Yihai, he returned to the dock, got on the warship, and came to Chengzuo to discuss.

"The prince met a woman today, this woman claims to be the head of the Ouyang family, Chengzuo, do you know where the Ouyang family comes from?" Mao Wenlong said in a deep voice.

Cheng Zuo recalled for a moment, shook his head and said, "My subordinates don't know what the Ouyang family is, why don't you send someone to investigate now?" ”

Mao Wenlong paused for a moment and said, "No need, you send someone to find that Chen Jiahao now, presumably he must know about the Ouyang family." ”

Cheng Zuo nodded, took his hand and left.

Mao Wenlong came to the deck alone, looking at the vast sea, but he was still haunted by Ouyang Xiaoling's glance in his heart. Mao Wenlong's years of life and death have made him feel very confident in himself.

Ouyang Xiaoling's eyes clearly looked like she had a monstrous enmity with herself. But Mao Wenlong never knew Ouyang Xiaoling, two people who had no intersection at all, but they were full of hostility towards themselves, which made Mao Wenlong scratch his head.

Half an hour passed, and there was finally a sound of hurried footsteps behind Mao Wenlong, and when he looked back, he saw Chengzuo leading Chen Jiahao to arrive.

The two hurriedly came to Mao Wenlong's face, and after saluting, Chen Jiahao said respectfully: "What do you have to say to the chief soldier?" ”

The Chen family has now returned to the Dongjiang Army, which means that Mao Wenlong is their master, and Chen Jiahao at this moment does not dare to have the slightest disrespect for Mao Wenlong. Even in his heart, Mao Wenlong in front of him is more important than Zhu Yihai in the city.

Moreover, Chen Jiahao also knows that the Chen family now enjoys special treatment in front of the prince. It was completely because Zhu Yihai saw Mao Wenlong's face that he compromised and made concessions, otherwise, with the current strength of the Chen family, Zhu Yihai would never agree to the Chen family's control of the entire provincial capital.

Mao Wenlong pondered for a moment before he spoke: "What kind of existence is the Ouyang family in the local area? ”

After Chen Jiahao heard this, his face turned slightly pale, and he hesitated for a while before he said bitterly: "The Ouyang family is the out-and-out number one merchant gang in the local area, and when the provincial capital was still under the control of the imperial court in the past, the Ouyang family was the emperor here. Later, the Ouyang family suddenly reined in, but they were almost equal to the Japanese before, and their goods went to sea, and they did not need to pay any protection money to the Japanese invaders. ”

Mao Wenlong frowned suddenly, he didn't expect that this Ouyang family was not even afraid of widows. After a pause, Mao Wenlong continued to ask: "Then is there any background behind this Ouyang family?" ”

Chen Jiahao shook his head and smiled bitterly: "The strength of the Ouyang family on the surface is already very huge, this time our Chen family is making a comeback, and the most scruples must be this Ouyang family." If it weren't for the presence of the prince's army, our Chen family would definitely not dare to come forward at this time anyway. As for the background of the Ouyang family, no one knows yet, but one thing is certain, the forces behind the Ouyang family are very mysterious. ”

"Oh, how mysterious?" Mao Wenlong came to be interested.

"Chief Qiyu, the Ouyang family seems to have a large number of killers in secret, although we have never confirmed it with our own eyes, but as long as anyone has a grudge against the Ouyang family. It won't be long before these people who have enmity with the Ouyang family will die well or disappear mysteriously, without exception. Chen Jiahao explained while recalling.

Mao Wenlong nodded: "It seems that this Ouyang family is indeed not simple. ”

Chen Jiahao hesitated for a while before he mustered up the courage to ask Mao Wenlong, "Is the general soldier going to deal with the Ouyang family?" ”

Such a direct inquiry seemed very rude, but Chen Jiahao couldn't suppress the impulse in his heart, and finally decided to give it a try. After all, their Chen family has always been at odds with the Ouyang family.

In the past, he had always restrained himself from clash with the Ouyang family, and that was because he understood that he was not the opponent of the Ouyang family. But now it's different, if Mao Wenlong also wants to get rid of the Ouyang family, then the Chen family shouldn't let go of such a good opportunity.

Mao Wenlong saw Chen Jiahao's apprehension, and he chuckled slightly: "Your Chen family is also not dealing with the Ouyang family?" ”

Chen Jiahao didn't hide anything from Mao Wenlong, and admitted very bluntly: "Don't hide it, if our Chen family really wants to stand alone in the provincial capital, then this Ouyang family must be destroyed, otherwise there will be another incident in the future." ”

Mao Wenlong nodded appreciatively: "You are straightforward, and there is no need for this general soldier to hide it from you." This Ouyang family is obviously a scourge to stay, especially for the prince. It's a pity that the Ouyang family still took the first step, and they should go together with the prince now. At this time, if you want to get rid of them, you must first uncover their old background, so that the prince can understand that this Ouyang family is not a good match. ”

With everything he knew so far, Mao Wenlong had already guessed why Ouyang Xiaoling, a woman, took the initiative to approach Zhu Yihai. At the same time, Mao Wenlong also admired the vision of the Ouyang family, so he didn't dare to do anything to the Ouyang family at will.

After Mao Wenlong's reminder, Chen Jiahao suddenly came over. The Ouyang family has now gotten together with the prince, and if they want to do it again, they really have to take into account the relationship between the prince's side.

Seeing Chen Jiahao's sad face, Mao Wenlong chuckled: "Forget it, this matter is not in a hurry, you go back first." In the future, pay more attention to the situation of the Ouyang family, and inform you as soon as you find anything. ”

Chen Jiahao respectfully accepted the order, confessed and left in a hurry.

Cheng Zuo asked Mao Wenlong for his life at this time: "Chief soldier, if you don't let your subordinates go to investigate, there is only one Ouyang family, and your subordinates can't get rid of them if they don't believe it." ”

Mao Wenlong shook his head and smiled: "Don't worry, the Chen family is the local head snake, and they can get twice the result with half the effort by finding out the news." As for the fact that we will clean up the waters around here first, we will talk about the rest. ”

Cheng Zuo nodded and agreed, and defeated the Japanese invaders, but the sea area of the provincial capital was not yet peaceful. As soon as the bandits entrenched in the nearby waters learned that the pirates in the provincial capital had been exterminated, they would certainly make trouble.

The Dongjiang army must make an example of the most arrogant pirates here, prove their strength, and achieve the goal of deterring other pirates. The task is not easy, and Cheng Zuo has already begun to arrange it since he took over the affairs of the port.
