Chapter 61
"Boy, why are you so unreasonable? Seeing us coming, why don't you give up your seat quickly? Also, why didn't you come to welcome us?"

Chen Tai, the head of the Chen family, pointed at Zhang Yu and shouted loudly.

The other Patriarchs also looked unhappy, as if Zhang Yu should serve them like a grandson.

On Zhang Yu's left is Zhang Zhao, on the right is Xi Zhicai, and there are a few Xiang family disciples waiting on both sides, and they all look at this group of aristocratic patriarchs unkindly.

Zhang Yu waited for a while before he said calmly: "I am the prefect, what qualifications do you have to let me go to greet you, and why do you want to give up your seat? Who should you give up to?"

"Haha, it's funny, it's funny, you really take yourself seriously. If we admit that you are the prefect, you are the prefect. If you don't, you are nothing." The head of the Huang family burst out laughing after hearing Zhang Yu's words.

"Haha, ridiculous, ridiculous."

"This kid is too self-righteous."

The reactions of the several family heads were not what Zhang Yu had expected. These people were extremely arrogant and controlled the place. Here, they could despise everything.

"Aren't you afraid that the prefect will question you if you dare to say rebellious words openly?" Zhang Yu said.

"Hmph, ask the crime? It's up to you? If you are sensible, everything is easy to talk about. If you insist on doing this, then you will suffer the consequences yourself." Li Yuan, who had not spoken a word, said.

"Li Yuan, where do you have the courage to threaten the prefect." Zhang Yu stared at Li Yuan and said in a serious and majestic tone.

"Why? Hehe" Li Yuan sneered and said, "It's just because I'm from an aristocratic family, and you are nothing."

Seeing Li Yuan speak so confidently, Zhang Yu was speechless. He knew that the aristocratic families of this era controlled almost all social resources, but he never expected to be so arrogant.

"Haha, family, family, what a family." Zhang Yu laughed loudly, then stood up and said, "Since you are officially invited to the banquet today, please take your seats."

In any case, they are all guests invited by themselves, and basic etiquette is still required.

Li Yuan and the others did not move, but stood still.

"It's up to you whether you want to sit or not, but since you're here today, you still need to clarify some things." They didn't sit, Zhang Yu sat down and said calmly.

The heads of other aristocratic families all looked at Li Yuan.

Li Yuan did not speak, walked to a seat and sat down, and several other Patriarchs followed.

"Prefect Zhang, why did you invite us here? We are all busy people, not as free as you." Li Yuan said.

"It's very simple. The prefect is going to carry out a major reform in Kuaiji County, and I ask you to cooperate when the time comes." Zhang Yu said.

"Pfft~"

Several patriarchs laughed, but Zhang Yu actually said that he wanted to reform.

"Okay, since Prefect Zhang has this intention, I agree with Prefect Zhang, and I will definitely support him when the time comes." Li Yuan spoke strongly of his support.

As soon as Zhang Yu heard it, he understood that he was planning to do more harm than good.

But Zhang Yu didn't care about it. If they didn't support it today, then whoever would disappear from Kuaiji County.

"Okay, then thank you Patriarch Li." Zhang Yu didn't need to introduce, he already knew their identities, and after seeing the Patriarch of the aristocratic family below, Zhang Yu said again.

"Okay, the first thing is to clean up all the inactive officials in Kuaiji County. I don't think any of the county magistrates are useful, and the officials of the prefect's mansion have not come to report to me so far. Obviously, they are inaction. Everything. They have to be replaced." Zhang Yu said loudly.

"If you dare, you are courting death." The head of the Ding family was furious, and slapped the table loudly.

"Zhang Yu's son, this Kuaiji County is our family's Kuaiji County, not your own Kuaiji County." The head of the Zhao family also stood up and pointed to Zhang Yu.

Several other Patriarchs also denounced Zhang Yu together.

"Then, are you not cooperating?" Zhang Yu glanced at him and said coldly.

Li Yuan frowned, feeling a bad feeling in his heart.

"Prefect Zhang, you didn't know the situation when you first came here. I think all the officials in Kuaiji County are good. Even if some officials neglect their duties, it's okay. We can recommend some useful talents to the adults, and the adults just came. , I am also willing to pay to help adults tide over the difficulties."

Li Yuan thought that Zhang Yu wanted to take the opportunity to blackmail them, and wanted to hide Zhang Yu's details without knowing Zhang Yu's details, and then deal with Zhang Yu after they found out Zhang Yu's details.

"Hmph, I don't need you to teach me what the prefect is going to do. I'm just informing you today. After all, the prefect doesn't want the place to be unstable." Zhang Yu saw that they still wanted to practice Tai Chi, so he snorted and said.

"Zhang Yu." Li Yuan couldn't sit still, lost his composure just now, and said angrily, "Let me tell you, without our family, you are nothing, you can't play well."

Zhang Yu shook his head, he never imagined that this group of aristocratic families would be so arrogant that even the eunuch would not pay attention to them.

"Those who are willing to support this prefect stand up today, and those who do not support this prefect will be at their own risk." Seeing that these people were hopeless, Zhang Yu directly issued an ultimatum.

"Haha, I'd like to see what you think." Li Yuan said with a laugh.

At this time, a man who looked like Zhuang Ding ran in outside, Li Yuan was slightly taken aback when he saw him.

"Master, it's not good." This person was from Li Yuan's house. He went directly to Li Yuan and said to him.

Li Yuan's face changed slightly, something must have happened.

"What's the matter?"

"Patriarch, a group of soldiers suddenly rushed into the county seat of Wu County and took over the city defense. The original city defense army and captain were dismissed and put under guard. Take over the defense of the prefect's mansion." Zhuang Ding said in a low voice.

Although it was a low voice, several Patriarchs around heard it.

Several people's faces changed.

Li Yuan immediately realized what was happening. Zhang Yu must be the one who is so confident today.

"Zhang Yu, do you want to rebel?" Li Yuan turned his head and said to Zhang Yu angrily.

"Ridiculous, ridiculous, it's you who are going to rebel now." Zhang Yu said.

"Okay, since that's the case, let's wait and see." Li Yuan snorted coldly, turned around and was about to leave.

"Leave?" Zhang Yu sneered and said, "Do you think you left?"

Several people jumped in their hearts, Zhang Yu actually wanted to do something to them.

"Come here, this person trespassed on the prefect's mansion with the intention of assassinating him, so he will take it down immediately, and if he resists a few spells, he will be killed on the spot." Zhang Yu roared.

Immediately, several soldiers rushed in from outside, led by Ling Cao.

"No, I'm not."

"Pfft~"

That Zhuang Ding was frightened when he heard that, he danced and explained quickly, Ling Cao rushed in, raised his knife and beheaded the man without saying a word.

The bloody reality was before them, and only then did everyone realize that Zhang Yu was for real.

"My son Zhang Yu, what do you really want?" Li Yuan was furious. Although he was the second family in Kuaiji County, he was almost the first family, because the Sun family had been expanding outwards, so they didn't look down on this place at all. How can he not be angry when he wants to shake his foundation.
