Tang Ming wore an awkward expression as he walked onto the stage, taking over the three wooden crates.

As one of the representatives of the branch clans, he had never imagined things would escalate to such a degree.

He wanted to say a few words in explanation because he knew that most people were only provoked and didn’t really have any complaints with Tang Zhi.

“Sect Head, in reality…”

Tang Zhi waved his hand, cutting off his intended speech. In an indifferent tone, he said, “I know what you want to say. I was the one at fault in this issue. I made the original promise of these lands. You’ve distributed them based on contribution, now, you may leave. The singing and dancing shall continue.” Tang Ming had no choice but to nod and salute, leading several stewards off the main stage and toward his own seat.

“The Sect Head is carving off his own flesh.” Tang Luo watched Tang Zhi declaring this year’s dividends on stage. He said lightly.

Xu Shuhui was confused and asked him, “What do you mean?”

“Clearly, the land was just bait Sect Head released then. The purpose was to encourage the branch clan leaders to gather the grain with all their strength. Even if they received the land, it would be after the Sect Head’s plan succeeded. The impeachment by the branch clans made the Sect Head feel people’s hearts were deviating, he had no choice but to appease them with the land.” Tang Luo shook his head regrettably. “But Xiling City has been peaceful for a long time. Where could there be so much vacant land in North City? Therefore, I think all these lands originally belonged to the Sect Head’s lineage.”

Listening to Tang Luo’s comments, Xu Shuhui’s eyes lit up with admiration. Although she already knew her son was smart, she had not expected him to be this insightful.

Even Tang Sen nodded in approval. He was curious about Tang Luo’s opinion because it seemed that gathering the refugees was not the entirety of Tang Zhi’s plan. This piqued his interest, prompting him to ask: “What do you think is the Sect Head’s plan?”
