Chapter 577: Most of them are destroyed
Gao Shangjing, the city lord of Zhongwu City, is about sixty years old, and the four generations of the Gao family are in the same house, seeing that the fifth generation is about to be born, he is very proud, but his sons are not very capable, so he wants to pass over his sons and directly pass on the position of city lord to his grandson.
But among the grandsons, the only thing that can make him look at it is only the second-room concubine Gao Jianxin, who is ranked fifth, this kid is bold and careful, he has followed himself over the years, and has learned a lot of skills, originally he planned to ask him to participate in the imperial examination, but the second daughter-in-law is a sweet-hearted person, every time Gao Jianxin is ready to go to the exam, she falls ill, and the illness is not light.
She is sick, and all the children in the family have to serve the sick, otherwise if she goes like this, wouldn't she leave a regret, but she is Gao Jianxin, the concubine, when her mother was seriously ill, she ran to participate in the imperial examination, no matter what rank she got in the exam, just one unfilial piety was enough for him to drink!
The second master of the high school can't control his wife, okay! He has never taken care of it, so in the face of his father's anger, he can only be caught in the middle and the mud, once or twice, the high city lord doesn't even bother to say anything!
He is a father-in-law, it's really hard to say anything about his daughter-in-law, but the old wife died early, and the person who can justifiably govern the second wife of the high school is the eldest sister-in-law, but unfortunately the tall lady is the same as the second master of the high school is a love and muddy character.
The lord of Gao Cheng simply took Gao Jianxin with him to raise him, so Gao Jianxin, who was a concubine, became the only one among all the children and grandchildren of the Gao family who was raised by the lord of Gao Cheng.
Recently, the city lord Gao has been very active in looking at his wife for this grandson, but the results don't seem to be very good.
This made the high city lord very frustrated.
Today, the richest man in the city came to a distinguished guest from Beijing, I heard that this noble guest is looking for a son-in-law for his daughter, Zhongwu City is surrounded by mountains on both sides, one side is facing water, and one side is a fertile plain, there are not only a wide variety of mountain products here, but also aquatic products, and food is not to worry.
At the same time, because of the wharf, freight traffic is accessible, and it is one of the richest cities in the central part of the Eastern Qi Dynasty.
Gao Ye is also quite famous in the city, so when the people from the City Lord's Mansion saw the embarrassed look of the person who came to report the case, and heard the other party talk about it, it seemed that he was the rich man Gao Ye in the city! For a while, the gatekeeper panicked, oh my God! He had already gone outside the city, and there were still people chasing and killing him? If this was really a killing, wouldn't the city lord of his family eat melons?
After all, Zhongwu City is his jurisdiction, outside the city under his control, the rich people in the city were killed by strongmen?! How can this be done! They have all heard that the city lord intends to pass on the position to Young Master Xinsun, if this happens after Young Master Xinsun takes over, then it can be inferred that the young man has just taken over, and everything has not been straightened out, and someone took advantage of the loophole, but if it happens in the city director, let alone pass the position of the city lord to Young Master Xinsun, maybe the position of the city lord will not be saved!
The imperial court pays attention to the son of heaven and a courtier, if this Zhongwu City really changes the city lord, those of them who work in the director of Gaocheng are afraid that they will be kicked by the new city lord.
They don't want to lose their errands!
In this short period of time, Menzi has thought about it so much, not to mention the stewards, principals and stewards in the city lord's mansion.
Even Menzi didn't want the city lord to have problems, and they naturally didn't want to.
Therefore, after getting the news, the chief of the city responsible for maintaining law and order rushed to gather people, and they could be dispatched after waiting for the city lord's order.
The governor knew that this matter was serious, and hurriedly ordered someone to prepare a horse, and he personally went to inform the city lord who went to the king's house for a banquet.
Gao Jian Xin is a concubine, but he can't stand the care of his elders, and he takes him with him to raise him personally, and the noble man from Beijing is here to see his husband for the daughter of his favorite concubine.
It wasn't until he saw this noble man that the city lord Gao knew that the richest man had actually befriended the thirteenth prince!
The thirteen princes and the nine princes are considered rivals, the mother concubine of the nine princes is a favorite concubine, and the biological mother of the thirteen princes is promoted from concubine to concubine after death.
The life experience of the thirteenth prince is also quite bizarre, his mother concubine Qi Concubine and the mother concubine of the Nine Emperor Princes, Concubine Rong Guifei, used to be very close handkerchiefs, but Concubine Qi's family background is better, so when the draft girl entered the palace, she was named a concubine as soon as she entered the palace.
And Rong Guifei was not promoted to concubine until she gave birth to the Nine Emperor Sons, and the two sisters were originally in the palace to help each other, one was favored when she entered the palace, but she did not give birth for a long time, and the other was not promoted until she gave birth to a son.
When Concubine Qi gave birth to a son, the emperor planned to promote her position, but the good times did not last long, and an autumn hunt actually lost the thirteen princes.
The emperor was furious, the Son of Heaven was angry and lay in wait for thousands of miles, Concubine Qi was rejected by the emperor because she failed to take care of her son, but Concubine Rong was gradually favored because of her merit in taking care of the Son of Heaven, and finally rose to the concubine.
A few years ago, the Eastern Qi Dynasty and overseas trade, a lot of profits, the Emperor of the Eastern Qi Dynasty wanted to choose one from the maritime merchants, specializing in the supply of maritime goods to the royal family, at that time there was a famous maritime merchant from the crowd of maritime merchants stood out, he was not only a man of the sea faction, generous, and the appearance of the emperor is very similar.
As soon as these words came out, they immediately attracted the attention of the emperor who had been sick for many years, and he summoned the thirteen princes who were still white.
At this meeting, the emperor immediately recognized from the eyebrows, eyes and facial features of the thirteen princes, this is his son who has been lost for many years!
When passing by the mountains and forests one day, he accidentally found that he was protected by two tigers, and the two tigers were quite spiritual, if they were not for them to protect him, how could a child who was only four or five years old survive in the mountains and forests.
When asked where his stepfather found him, it was not far from the royal enclosure where he had been hunted in the autumn.
The emperor wants to recognize his son, naturally he can't just listen to one side of the word, and immediately sent an iron horse to investigate, and the result is that the emperor is happy, and the thirteen princes have returned since then, at that time, his mother Qi concubine, has already died of excessive sadness, and the emperor will promote the status of the thirteen princes to the concubine Qi.
The emperor sent an iron horse to investigate, and accidentally found out that the thirteen princes would get lost that year, but it was actually done by Concubine Rong, who had always been a sister to Concubine Qi.
Although Rong Guifei and Concubine Qi have passed away, Rong Guifei's children are still alive and well, and her baby son, the Nine Emperor Princes, is now as prestigious as the sky, although the Eastern Qi Emperor did not appoint him as the crown prince, but he faintly has the power of the prince.
There are many people inside and outside the court who support and follow him.
However, the emperor has not officially canonized him as the crown prince, but the Nine Emperor Princes have faintly regarded themselves as the crown princes.
The city lord Gao is not optimistic about the Nine Emperors, but he also does not want to become sons and daughters with the Thirteen Princes, the emperor may feel guilty about the Thirteen Princes, but how long can this kind of thinking be maintained? Also, the Nine Emperors have been raised by the royal family since childhood, and the Thirteen Princes grew up in the people, God knows what he has learned over the years?
Although he is not optimistic about the Nine Emperor Princes, among the emperor's sons, it seems that there is only one who can be seen, the Thirteenth Prince! Some people may say that he has worked so hard to look at his son-in-law for the daughter of his favored concubine, and it seems that some of his favored concubines have killed their wives!
The thirteenth prince is a shrewd businessman, how could he not see what the city lord Gao thinks, but he is very optimistic about this family business, especially after learning that the city lord Gao intends to pass on the position of the city lord to Gao Jianxin, the grandson, if Gao Jianxin becomes his son-in-law and takes over the position of the city lord, then Zhong Wucheng will be in his hands, there are hidden mountains and forests, there are rich plains, and there is a dock, and it is really convenient to establish a base here.
Gao Jianxin is just a concubine, or a concubine who doesn't hurt his parents, if it weren't for the attention of the city lord Gao, I'm afraid that he is a guy who has no interest at all, such a person, giving him a concubine, it is already considered a grace of heaven! When he ascends the throne in the future, that kid will be a concubine!
So he has a lot of faith in this family business.
City Lord Gao doesn't let go now, it doesn't matter, when he sees the benefits, he will naturally nod. He, no hurry.
The high city lord was a little distressed, because he didn't know how to refuse the olive branch thrown by the thirteen princes.
I didn't want to be dozing off, so someone brought a pillow, but this pillow didn't seem to be easy to sleep on!
Listening to the general manager who came in a hurry to finish speaking, Gao City Lord's head was a little stunned, and he couldn't react, "What did you say?"
"City Lord, without further ado, I'll tell you more on the way to my humble position?" The chief manager wiped the oil and sweat on his forehead, he had already said it so clearly, the city lord asked this, he was afraid that it would delay the matter if he said it again, if he let Gao Ye be killed because of this, the city lord would definitely have to push the responsibility out, and he would become the best scapegoat.
Seeing that the high city lord didn't seem to have fully reacted, the chief steward couldn't help but feel a little sad in his heart, the city lord, you're old!
This matter should be left to the city lord when he was young, and I am afraid that he has been driven out of the city at this moment.
Gao Jianxin, who was waiting on the side, was young and didn't know much, but from the words and deeds of the chief manager, he had observed the seriousness of this matter, and whether his grandfather reacted or not, he first said goodbye to the richest man and the thirteenth prince on behalf of his grandfather, and then helped the old man to go out.
Grandfather reacts slowly, it doesn't matter, he reacts quickly, and by looking at the manager's expression, he knows that he did the right thing. As soon as he left the king's house, he saw the guards of the city lord's mansion riding on horses, and the officials in the city were all neatly lined up.
"The informant is outside the gates?"
"Anyway, it's the North Gate. The chief manager said while waiting for the city lord to get on the horse, but the high city lord was still a little dazed, and the chief steward stuffed the reins into his hand, and he slowly reacted.
"Say it again, what's going on?"
It wasn't until the chief turned over and got on his horse that everyone rode forward before he followed the lord of the city and told him what had happened.
"What about the informant?" Takami Shin was also with his grandfather, and after listening to the chief manager, they were already approaching the north gate.
The manager only remembered at this time, and it seemed that he had probably forgotten to explain the person and keep the informant!
"Send someone back to the City Lord's Mansion to say something. Gao Jianxin secretly scolded nonsense, what if the informant was fooling them? However, even if the informant was lying, they still had to go this way, what if it was true? But because they didn't take it seriously and didn't go out of the city to find out, which led to the death of the old man, the grandfather would probably be scolded by the people.
At that time, my grandfather's reputation will be ruined, and I am afraid that the position of the city lord will not be kept!
Thinking of this, Gao Jianxin whispered to the Gao City Lord about the seriousness of the situation, the Gao City Lord has just been smooth sailing for so many years, and he didn't expect that someone would openly hunt down and kill good people on the official road, and he had already reacted at this time, listening to his grandson say this, his heart was very happy, and there was a kind of joy that my family had just grown up.
The chief manager saw that Gao Jianxin could see it clearly, and his heart was very peaceful, he originally thought that the city lord valued a grandson so much, which seemed to be a little inappropriate, after all, the family was not without children and grandchildren, but now seeing that he understood the matter, he couldn't help but compare him with several young masters in the mansion.
This person is not better than not knowing, one is more than ah! Frightened, if the young masters of the palace who came out of the palace knew about this, they were afraid that they would hide in their homes if they pulled their legs, and they dared to accompany the city lord out of the city to find out what was going on like seeing Young Master Xinsun.
You know, this sword has no eyes, who knows if the strongman who chases and kills people will not be afraid of the officers and soldiers, and will turn to the city lord and them?
Thinking of this, the chief manager suddenly reacted, and secretly reminded himself that when he left the city in a while, he would have to flash farther away, and those guards would protect the city lord and Young Master Sun, but they would not protect him!
But he said that Master Gao, at this time, he had abandoned the carriage and fled for his life on a horse pulling the cart.
As for the driver who pulled the cart for him, it was not his concern! For now, the key is to save his own life.
The people of the Nine Emperors became more and more angry the more they chased, and they couldn't help but scold on the way to the pursuit, and Gao Ye said in his heart, Lao Tzu hasn't dealt with you bastards, you are good, you actually blame me, don't be honest and obediently wait for you to kill?
Master Gao held his breath and galloped wildly, and the city gate was not far away! As long as he crossed the miscellaneous forest in front of him, he could reach the city gate!
How could the people of the Nine Emperor Princes let him get his wish, the arrow pursued again, this time, directly hit the galloping horse, the horse neighed in pain, the horse had fallen to the ground before the sound fell, the master stepped on his toes, took off with his strength, and the whole person shot towards the woods.
Seeing this, the people of the Nine Emperor Princes couldn't help but choke, how could this person escape like this!
"Boss, this forest is very dense, but I'm afraid it's hard to find someone. ”
Nonsense, doesn't he know? But what can he do now? The people have fled into the woods, and they are talking something afterthought, and there is a use for?
After a sip, the leader had to gesture to his subordinates, signaling them to divide into small groups and enter the woods.
The pigeon guards in the distance couldn't help but sigh for the fate of these people.
Master Gao was organized by killers, and he is not afraid of killing!
I'm afraid that these people will become the ghosts of his hands!
"We only sent people to inform the city lord, and the people of Zi Molou don't need to be notified?"
"Do you think they need us to inform them?" the digital boy raised his eyebrows and asked the man, who smiled wryly, and said in his heart, how do I know! I am not from Zi Molou.
Zi Mo Lou's people really don't need to be notified, because as early as when Gao Ye entered Zhong Wu City's sphere of influence, he had already used a code to notify Zi Mo Lou's people to respond.
It's just that he doesn't know why, and he doesn't see the person who answers.
This is, of course, because the former landlord deliberately did it, who let Gao Ye, the old man of Zi Mo Lou, turn to Xie Yingluo without saying a word after Xie Yingluo took over? This made the former landlord who had worked with him for many years feel cold.
These people wanted to vent their anger for the previous landlord, but also wanted to teach those who were like Gao Ye a lesson, so Gao Ye couldn't wait for the person who answered to appear.
But it doesn't matter, Master Gao's force value is very high, and he is not afraid of the people of the Nine Emperor Princes, so the woods have become a Shura field.
Although the people of the Nine Emperor Princes have superior weapons in hand, but now that they are scattered, the combat ability of individual soldiers is too scummy, and they can't parry a master like Gao Ye at all.
When the team leader found out that something was wrong and urgently summoned the personnel, he found that more than half of their people had been reduced.
