After the initial preparations were completed, Aarons immediately gathered the remaining few people in the family and began to make the next plan.

"It will definitely take a lot of time for Keliya, and there is not much I can do here... So my idea is to do something big to attract the attention of others."

Because there are only three women in the family, Xia Ye, Jiang Yue and Mo Qianyun, the combat effectiveness of Aarons has been reduced a lot.

In order to make up for the lack of combat power, Jiang Yue also took the initiative to join the ranks of guards - because almost all the stocks were used up when developing [Night Crow], so she actually has nothing to do now.

With her and Mo Qianyun around, Aarons doesn't have to worry about being attacked by any sneak assassins.

"Master, have you forgotten that you are still a participant in the Battle of Zhengrong?"

"I really forgot... Now other cities have new city lords, right?"

"That's right, and the current city lords are all people who have close ties with the great nobles. If you really want to do something, just pick one to start with."

Aarons certainly didn't want to hand over the original Marquisate to others, so he must get rid of these participants who were supported by the great nobles.

But killing people in the street without scruples is definitely not okay. Even if there is no explicit prohibition in the rules, doing so will only make other opponents unite out of fear.

"Marquis, the people related to the little guy Moro should be here too, you can try to contact them first."

Today, Jiangyue changed into a pale white sleeveless long gown. The unique design of the stand-up collar, waist and side slits reminded Aarons of the cheongsam he had seen in his previous life.

And the traditional combination of black translucent stockings and high heels makes the sage who has already turned into a dragon highlight the heterogeneous charm.

"Marquis, you don't have to really negotiate any conditions with them. Just let outsiders know that you have had private exchanges with them, and you can go ahead and attack other nobles."

"Putting the blame on others... is a good idea."

"Master, you can take this opportunity to take Miss Qianyun out to test the practicality of protective magic. Miss Qianyun, have you mastered the [weaving] I taught you before?"

The [weaving] that Xia Ye often uses is actually not magic, but a special technique to permanently solidify one's own magic power into silk thread. As long as the magic power is sufficient, anyone can learn this technique.

Of course, sewing clothes with this silk thread is another technique.

"Yes, I can now release the silk thread that conducts magic power. But Teacher Xia Ye, the silk thread I release seems to be different from what you taught..."

"Of course, the thread mixed with eight elemental properties is different. Alas... Please produce more rolls of silk thread when you have time. I will try my best to use these materials to make new clothes for the young master and you."

And Mo Qianyun's outfit today is also very eye-catching-a white short-sleeved shirt with black suspenders, a capable combination of slim trousers and high-heeled short boots, which perfectly highlights her own awe-inspiring temperament.

This beautiful and clear-looking girl is indeed very suitable to be a guard.

"You just need to ensure that a line is always connected to the Marquis's shield equipment, and immediately transfer the magic power to it in case of emergency. Because that thing will send me a warning when it is activated, so if you can't solve the opponent, I will go to support you."

If there is really an enemy that Jiangyue and Mo Qianyun can't deal with together, then Aarons will not be wronged even if he dies-but this level of enemy is probably only a rare sixth-level monster.

"Well, Master, won't you follow the Master?"

"My appearance is too eye-catching now. Others will definitely be on guard when they see me."

Now, Mo Qianyun is the only one around Aarons who is suitable for covert operations.

She doesn't have any alien features. As long as she is slightly disguised, no one can accurately identify her identity.

"Okay, that's it. Qianyun, go and get ready now. We will go to Moti City first."

...

Before taking action, Aarons still needs some accurate intelligence.

In order to ensure that outsiders will not mistakenly believe that he is alienated by the royal family, he has already greeted the third prince Luo Lan in advance and asked him to avoid him as much as possible during this period.

However, in this way, the only source of intelligence he can easily use is the city office.

"Director Chen, I have something to ask you."

"...Marquis? Why are you here? Um... The rumors outside are not good for you recently. Are you really with His Highness..."

"Just take it as the truth."

Of course, the old Marquis's subordinates immediately understood Aarons' hint, so he stopped asking any more questions."I need some information about the current situation of the cities in the Marquisate."

"I see, are you planning to deal with those honorary nobles? But the information we have now is very limited, I wonder if I can help you."

The middle-aged man with a resolute face said, while quietly looking at the new guard beside Aarons with his peripheral vision - the female attendant with neat black short hair and a black mask covering most of her face, who was obviously different from the strange women he had seen before.

Although she seemed to have tried her best to suppress it, the murderous aura on her body was still quite obvious.

"It doesn't matter, as many as you want."

"Then wait a moment."

Aarons didn't actually have much expectation, because after the start of the Zhengrong War, there was not much contact between the city offices in various places.

But to his surprise, Director Chen finally brought a very thick investigation report.

"Here is some of the information we investigated privately, and the list that His Royal Highness the Third Prince gave us before... I hope it can help you."

"That's enough, thank you Director Chen."

After simply flipping through the report, Aarons roughly grasped the current situation-currently only one of the ten cities is currently under the control of a noble related to Duke Oufei, and the other cities have fallen into the hands of the other two dukes.

"I'll visit one of them tomorrow... Then Director Chen, I'll take my leave first. Qianyun, let's go."

After watching Aarons, whose state was obviously inconsistent with the rumors outside, leave the city hall with his new attendant calmly, the former subordinates of the old marquis finally realized it.

"So that's it, this is just a cover... Hey, go and notify others now, we're going to have a meeting later!"

Since Aarons's thoughts have been guessed, then of course these people who support him have to do something to help him.
