Chapter 1428: Rules

In front of you, you will go to the Ministry of Shangshu Mansion, and this Songming Street in front of you is a place where dignitaries and nobles in Fashen City gather, and those big people with status can live here.

Zhong Shangshu walked on this familiar road, his mood was inevitably a little nervous, he was about to go to his own house, as soon as he entered the house, the formation inside was activated, and he could reunite with his family, and he would no longer have to worry about anyone.

But I don't know why, the closer Zhong Shangshu gets to his home, the more strange he feels, he always feels uncomfortable, as if something uncomfortable exists.

From the street to the end of the street, the front section is bustling and noisy, people come and go, and when you go to the back half, you find that there are fewer and fewer people, and the road surface is getting more and more deserted.

Suddenly, Zhong Shangshu stopped and stopped moving.

Because he saw the gate of his house, and he also saw the watchmen who were guarding the door of the house.

They were all dressed in black robes, with long knives at their waists, and steel gongs hanging from their chests, which were talismans for the watchmen, which could not only defend themselves, but also quickly make noises to gather their companions.

Outside the gate of the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Officials, there are at least five watchmen guarding them, and this is still on the surface, and I don't know how many secret posts there are in secret.

Moreover, Zhong Shangshu could see at a glance that the courtyard of his house was shining with red light, and pillars of light were rising into the sky, this strange picture, compared with the bustle of the front street, was really creepy and extremely unsettling.

That skyrocketing blood light was the defensive formation in the courtyard! Of course Zhong Shangshu recognized it, because it was the last hole card in his mansion.

All the heads of the three divisions and six departments will move into the courtyard of the corresponding level to live, and the building where he lives is the Shangshu Mansion of the Ministry of Officials.

This official department Shangshu Mansion was not built after he Zhong Xin came, but the official department of Shangshu and his family will live here.

There are powerful formations in this Shangshu Mansion, and there is more than one, after hundreds of years, there are countless formations in the mansion.

However, all of these formations have only one function, which is to protect the people in this mansion, which is also where the confidence of the high-ranking officials and officials of the Law God City lies, and in their respective official residences, there are these magic formations of different levels, and only those who are higher than their official rank can break the formation according to the law, otherwise no matter how strong the opponent is, they can only act outside the mansion.

Officials want to climb up desperately, because only the higher the rank, the safer they and their families are.

When he reached the position of Shangshu Zhong Xin of the Ministry of Officials, the strength of the defensive array of Shangshu Mansion had almost reached its peak, only slightly inferior to the inner courtyard of the palace.

However, who would have thought that the magic circle of Shangshu Mansion would be completely opened! Then it also means that there is an enemy inside! And it is an enemy that Zhong Mansion cannot fight.

However, Zhong Shangshu was shocked, and suddenly thought of an important clue, that is, those watchmen in front of the Zhong Mansion.

can let the famous watchman stay in front of the mansion, what is the origin of the outsiders who enter the Zhong Mansion?

The watchmen have always been sent only by the royal family, and ordinary officials and yamen have not moved them at all.

"What the hell is going on, who is in my house?" Zhong Shangshu stood still and said in a cold tone.

Lu Menglan shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "How could I know! However, I have a way to let you see the situation in the mansion." ”

Zhong Xin gritted his teeth and said, "Did Her Highness the Phantom Sea do it?" She sent someone to harm my family, and then asked you to take me to see it, right?"

Lu Menglan replied angrily: "Think about it again, who called me here?"

Zhong Shangshu suppressed the anger in his heart, and suddenly thought, no! Obviously, he invited this kid to come to Zhongfu to deliver a letter, but before that, he didn't know to come over at all.

Moreover, after Zhong Shangshu calmed down, he quickly thought that Her Royal Highness Princess Phantom Sea did not have a position in the court, and she did not have officials of higher rank than herself to rely on, even if Her Royal Highness wanted to send someone into the Zhong Mansion, most of them would not be able to enter.

The magic circles in the mansion were all activated, and the blood was rushing to the sky, it looked like someone had deliberately opened the magic circle and locked the people in the Zhong Mansion inside.

The people who can be qualified to do this kind of thing, in the entire Law God City, except for His Majesty the Law God Emperor, there are only the three princes who hold positions above themselves in the court.

"What can you do to let me see the situation in the house?" Zhong Shangshu said in a deep voice.

His mind is very chaotic at the moment, but he is very calm, he has been an official for many years, and he has long been able to refine the ability to not be surprised by changes, there are changes in the house, and he is a prisoner of the ranks, only by understanding more about the situation can he find the most suitable solution.

Lu Menglu didn't say anything, and directly took Zhong Shangshu to a vacant small building.

This small building is facing the Zhong Mansion, condescending, but the distance is a little far, a hundred steps away, with Zhong Shangshu's eyesight, naturally he can't see anything clearly.

Lu Menglu took out a telescope from his personal space and threw it to him.

"With this equipment, you can see the scene in the distance, see for yourself!" Lu Menglu sighed softly.

This telescope was originally a small gift when Lu Menglan was carrying him and planned to come to Fashen City to do business, but he didn't expect that he would be arrested as soon as he came, and he almost became a professional doctor, so these gadgets were all put in the carry-on space, which was useless.

Zhong Shangshu took the military telescope and set it up to take a look, and sure enough, the situation in Zhong's mansion was clear.

He didn't have time to ask where such a miraculous piece of equipment came from, but looked at it intently.

The Zhong Mansion was full of corpses, the scene was shocking, and among the blood-colored pillars of light, there were still many relatives in the Zhong Mansion who were sealed in it.

That was the result of them touching the formation mechanism, and of course, those who were sealed were just corpses, and they had already lost their lives.

Someone attacked the Zhong Mansion and opened the magic circle in the Zhong Mansion in reverse, turning the magic circle that was supposed to protect the Zhong Mansion into a murderous weapon.

What made Zhong Shangshu collapse the most was that he also saw his beloved wife in one of the blood-colored pillars of light, the woman who had been with him for decades, and now she had also turned into a cold corpse.

And his beautiful daughter, whose clothes were tattered and her face was pale, and she was sealed in another pillar of blood-colored light with a sad face.

No one knows what she went through before she was sealed, and what terrible humiliation and torture she encountered.

Zhong Shangshu couldn't help but burst into tears, there were more than 100 people in the whole family, but none of them were alive, and the huge Zhong Mansion seemed to have become a purgatory on earth.

The telescope in Zhong Shangshu's hand could no longer be held, and it fell to the ground all of a sudden.

And this soft sound, in this silent street, seemed a little harsh, and it actually alarmed the watchmen who were a hundred paces away.

The watchmen at the door looked at this side one after another, and almost at the same time, Lu Menglu sensed a few breaths that were not weak, and he was quickly approaching the direction where the two of them were.

"Let's go! they're chasing!" Lu Menglu didn't say a word, picked up the old man Zhong, and his body retreated, disappearing into the vast night after a few ups and downs.

Even though he is carrying a person in his hand, but Lu Menglan's cultivation is so good, as long as he wants to leave, no one can keep him, at least these watchmen are not good!

Soon, Lu Menglu returned to the East 1st District with Zhong Shangshu with a dead face.

Zhong Shangshu never dreamed that he would return to this small courtyard again after walking around.

However, as long as he thought of the tragic situation of his family, he felt that everything was lost, and he wanted to bite the dog man and woman in front of him to death.

If it weren't for them, if it weren't for the Phantom Sea, he Zhong Xin would still be the secretary of the Ministry of Officials, the head of the six departments, how could he suffer such a great hatred of copying the family and destroying the clan!

Lu Menglan knew that the old man was in a bad mood, so he didn't say anything, just shook his head.

"Phantom Sea, this slut, even if the old man is a ghost, he won't let her go!" Zhong Xin roared angrily, looking like a roaring beast.

"And you, why do you have to act like you, just kill the old man, it's a hundred!"

Duanmu Qingyi didn't know what was crazy about this old hair, she blinked, put down the freshly cooked soup, and turned to leave.

Lu Menglu shook his head and sighed, "You hate the wrong person, His Highness Phantom Sea doesn't need to do this!"

"It's not her, who else could it be!" Zhong Xin said angrily.

Lu Menglan picked up the soup bowl, thought about it, and put it down again.

"You're already in our hands, and if we go and raid your house and kill your family, isn't that just a recipe? Calm down and think about it, what's the benefit of doing this?"

When Zhong Shangshu heard this, he was shocked, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

"No, it's not her? Who could it be? Could it be?"

"Those black-clothed people guarding the gate of the mansion, you should recognize them, right? Who can mobilize them in the Divine Dynasty? Isn't this obvious?" Lu Menglu shook his head and said.

"No! This is impossible! Those watchmen are only controlled by the Imperial Palace! No, the Phantom Sea can't move them! Only the queen in charge of Ouchi can mobilize them! You are talking nonsense, why did the queen mother raid my house?" Zhong Shangshu became more and more frightened the more he thought about it, and his voice couldn't help but weaken.

"How do I know these things? Think for yourself! I can only sympathize! And if you think of anything, don't tell me. Lu Menglu shook his head and said angrily.

His indifferent attitude made Zhong Shangshu believe that this matter had nothing to do with him, and he was just a low-level person, and he didn't know anything about the high-level of Fashen City at all, and he couldn't even recognize the identity of the vigil, let alone anything else.

"Wait a minute! I want to see His Highness Phantom Sea! I know who harmed my whole family! You can call Phantom Sea to see me!" Zhong Shangshu suddenly said angrily.

Lu Menglan shrugged his shoulders and sneered: "You think too much, right? I'm just a little guard, when His Highness Phantom Sea wants to see you, he will naturally inform me that I can't find her!"

Zhong Shangshu was shocked again, knowing that this young man should be telling the truth, with his status and status, how could he casually see Her Royal Highness the Princess of the Phantom Sea?

"Don't leave yet! I have something to tell you! You must have helped relay these things to His Highness Phantom Sea. Zhong Xin hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Lu Menglan's arm.

"Don't tell me, I don't want to hear your story!" Lu Menglu shrugged and said.

"No, these are all crimes committed by the Seven Sages of the Pine Forest, the old man still has evidence, you must listen to it, and then tell His Highness Phantom Sea! I will let them die without a place to bury! Accompany my poor daughter to bury her!" Zhong Xin said angrily.
