Chapter Fifty-Seven: The Missing Defense
With the opening of the gates of Qizhou, the pursuit of the assassins by the Marquis of Jiyang came to an abrupt end. Watermark Ad Test: Watermark Ad Test
The reason why Murong He agreed, in addition to what Governor Zheng said, he also had his own plans, one was that Su He, the son of the King of Qi, had already left Qizhou, and it didn't seem to make much sense for Murong He to show his loyalty, even if he caught the assassin, Su He would not be grateful to him; Second, Murong He has always been a benevolent and righteous marquis in the hearts of the people of Qizhou, and he sent so many people to search for assassins must have disturbed the people, and Murong He had to withdraw to the guards of the Jiyang Marquis Mansion for his own reputation.
However, whether or not the assassin was caught was not the key to the matter, the key was the matter of Tongguò, Murong He suddenly felt that he was under attack. In the past five years, he has always thought that Qizhou Mansion is within his control, and no one can act recklessly under his nose, but everything that happened in the past few days caught Murong He off guard. If the assassination of Su He, the son of the king of Qi, was just the beginning, next, there were rumors in Qizhou City that the late Murong Hao, the son of Murong Su, the son of Jiyang Hou, came back to life, which directly shook his position as Murong He. Since ancient times, the lords have been passed down from father to son, how can there be a reason to pass them on to brothers? What's more, this brother is still a concubine. If Murong Hao hadn't died five years ago, then Murong He would have to give up the position of Jiyang Hou to his nephew Murong Hao, of course, there is also a possibility that Murong He would return the position of Jiyang Hou to his nephew Murong Hao after a hundred years. And no matter what kind it is, it is unacceptable to Murong He, how can he give up the position of marquis that he finally snatched, and in addition, he now has his own son Murong Zhen, so he naturally hopes that his son Murong Zhen will inherit the position of Jiyang Hou.
"Stupid, who told you to catch those people!"
"This is a trap they have set in order to make Ben Hou mess with himself!"
In the study, Murong He roared and kicked on the butler Chang Mao's body, "Murong Hao, that kid, was personally buried by Ben Hou, how could he still be alive!" ”
"Master Hou, I didn't believe it at the beginning, but this matter is really ...... It's really weird. The little one thought that the person behind the assassin must know all about Qizhou City, and it was even possible to know the defense map of Qizhou City. After Chang Mao was kicked to the ground by Murong He, he got up again, knelt in front of Murong He again, kowtowed, and said, "Little fool, ask Lord Hou for mercy." ”
Steward Chang didn't catch the assassins in the past few days, but he caught a few men who looked similar to Murong Hao, originally he wanted to ask Murong He for credit for this matter, but he didn't expect that Murong He was furious.
"Don't say that Murong Hao is dead, even if he is alive, Ben Hou has a way to send him to the ancestral grave again." Murong He's eyes were ruthless, five years later, his worries were really fulfilled, and the remnants of Murong Su's subordinates wanted to make waves again. Scold... Why do they have no son, Murong Su no longer has a son, just what can a ten-year-old girl do. Do you want this girl to be a good girl, isn't this a big joke in the world?
It's just this defense map, Murong He's face sank when he thought of this, he had heard Murong Su mention it after he was drunk, there was a secret guard in the Jiyang Hou Mansion that could protect himself, and the location of this secret guard was hidden on that defense map. But after Murong Su's death, this defense map disappeared, and he couldn't find this map when he searched the entire Jiyang Hou Mansion, which was very strange.
