Chapter 134: Shameless
"Nothing was found, impossible, these people are obviously well-trained soldiers, and no one can be mobilized, and I heard a man call one of them 'General Wang', and the leader of the team is a general, this matter is definitely not that simple, this time they are targeting Li Mu, find out if it is because of business disputes or someone deliberately targeting Li Mu, as for this General Wang, I will use my family's power in the military to investigate, that is, dig three feet into the ground, I will also dig out this General Wang." Zhou Xiya's eyes were full of hatred, and when she thought of Li Mu's death in vain, she couldn't help herself.
"Miss Zhou, are you okay?" The housekeeper saw Zhou Xiya bending over and seemed to be in pain, and asked with concern.
"I... I'm fine, it's just that the wounds on my body hurt a little. Zhou Xiya slowly stood up, although her face was pale, she had to be strong, Li Mu's revenge had to be avenged, and her family business had to be kept.
"Miss Zhou, the boss was killed, and his property will definitely be suppressed and robbed, maybe this is the reason why the boss was killed this time, there are some things that still need you to come forward to control the overall situation." The shopkeeper sighed.
"Notice, I will take over all the properties under Li Mu's name as Li Mu's surviving person, and protect me with the power of the Zhou family, I will never let people snatch anything, if someone really fights this idea, you will clean it up for me, and I will bear it if something happens." Zhou Xiya's words were loud.
"Yes, with Miss Zhou's words, we are at ease as subordinates, Miss Zhou can rest assured, we are all people selected by the boss, and we have received great favors from the boss. No matter what happens this time, we will help Miss Zhou get through this hurdle. The housekeeper solemnly saluted and promised.
They also have no choice, Li Mu is not close to his family, has no children and no daughters, and it is not right, a few days ago he raised an orphan as a daughter, if there is really no one to come out to preside over the overall situation, none of them will obey anyone, it will only become a plate of loose sand, and none of them can keep the property left by Li Mu. It will only be swallowed up by some powerful people. This is not what they want to see, but now that Miss Zhou has come forward, so that they can also have a thought, Miss Zhou is Li Gongzi's fiancΓ©e. Also in business. And there is also a tough identity background. In this way, they can also stay, who is not to follow, to follow Miss Zhou. There is also a previous affection.
"Thank you for your hard work, if there is anything to tell me, find a way to help you solve it, and I want to control Li Muso's industry as soon as possible, I don't want to wait until I am attacked, I don't know which ones are my own industries." Zhou Xiya reminded.
"Is this your body?"
"My body is fine, I can hold on, I will hold on no matter what." Zhou Xiya stood up on the table, although her shoulders were weak, she could still withstand the wind and rain.
A few days later, Zhou Guangxun came.
"Little sister, you're better, I received a notice from my second uncle, and I was almost scared to death, why are you so much in trouble." Zhou Guangxun patted Zhou Xiya's head with a distressed expression.
"I'm the one who made you worry"
"As long as you're okay, we already know about Li Mu's affairs, the second uncle has already said that no matter what you decide, he will support you, and we, we all support you, so the second uncle asked me to come over to help you, the second uncle has begun to investigate Li Mu's assassination, and I will tell you when there is a result." On behalf of Zhou Jianxiong, Zhou Guangxun conveyed the family's decision.
Zhou Xiya has endured it for several days, asking herself not to cry, she has to be strong, but seeing the support of her relatives, Zhou Xiya really couldn't help it, leaning on Zhou Guangxun's shoulder and crying silently.
"Poor girl, it's that Li Mu who is not blessed, don't be afraid, everything is with the second brother, our brothers will protect you" Zhou Guangxun touched Zhou Xiya's hair to soothe.
With the arrival of Zhou Guangxun, Zhou Xiya's side is much more convenient, as long as she understands the specific situation of Li Mu's industry and understands the accounts with peace of mind, she can return to the capital and then worry about the stewards of various departments to familiarize themselves with each other, and now the second brother is responsible for the affairs outside, including continuing to look for Li Mu.
Zhou Guangxun and Xiao Jingqing stood on the bank, looking at the turbulent river in front of them.
"I didn't expect us to meet so soon," Xiao Jingqing sighed.
"Yes, it's a pity that things are wrong, there is less Li Mu here, and there is more sad little sister." Zhou Guangxun felt very uncomfortable, now the little sister is busy with Li Mu's business regardless of her body, when will her body get better like this, she will almost lose her sister's uncle's hair.
"You just let her go on like this, you must know that the best healing medicine is to talk about a new relationship, and forgetting is the best way." Xiao Jingqing looked at the river with a grim face.
"In other words, are you willing to marry someone who forgot about you in less than two days? The most rare quality of the little sister is this sincerity, the persistence and responsibility of the feelings, the feelings of this kind of thing are fate, as long as the little sister feels happy, we will not force her to do anything. Zhou Guangxun made his position clear.
Xiao Jingqing was silent, didn't she fancy Zhou Xiya's uniqueness?
"One thing I'm curious about? Why is it that when something happened, there was obviously a living mouth, but when I tried to ask something from their mouths, I found that there was no living mouth? And there was not a shred of evidence to be found at the scene. Zhou Guangxun looked at Xiao Jingqing.
"What do you mean?" Xiao Jingqing glared at Zhou Guangxun angrily, "You think I did this, I just like Zhou Xiya no matter how much I like it, and I won't do such a dirty thing." β
"But the scene is too clean, the technique fell quickly, nothing was left, clean, if there was something left, I wouldn't doubt it, but now it's surprisingly clean, I can't help but think about it." Zhou Guangxun was not afraid of Xiao Jingqing's cold face.
"Whatever you think, I have a clear conscience about this matter, if it was really me who did it, how could I let them hurt Zhou Xiya." Xiao Jingqing turned his back to his hand.
"I'll investigate this matter, I don't care what the purpose of the person behind it is, hurting Xiaoya, it's just going against our Zhou family, this matter is not so easy to pass." Zhou Guangxun's face was fierce.
"Whatever you want, since you are here, then I will go to the capital first, and the day of His Majesty's enthronement has arrived. I'm going to rush over. Xiao Jingqing frowned slightly, he planted a spy next to his father, he already knew that it was indeed his father who sent someone to do it, but what his father was hiding, he didn't know, this matter could not have been arranged by his father, and there was no need for his father to kill Li Mu.
"The capital is unstable now, Your Majesty is proud and greedy for beauty, and Concubine Zhou Xiwan is fighting for power with the queen. United Queen Mother. Choose a concubine for Your Majesty, choose the beauties of the world, the decree is about to come down, you should be more careful when you go back. "As a friend. Zhou Guangxun still mentioned something.
"The world is going to be in chaos......"
in the room. A separate room was quickly turned into an office by Zhou Xiya. She handled Li Mu's business here, and before she took over, she felt that Li Mu seemed to be very leisurely every day. But when she really took over, she found that there were really a lot of things, and a lot of things had to be dealt with, and Zhou Xiya dragged her sick body to deal with complicated things, so Chen had to go out of the mountain and take over the account books in her hand to help her share them.
Zhou Xiya was a lot more relaxed, as long as she was in control of the overall situation and personnel, she could operate normally.
"Miss Zhou, the following steward reports, there are already people looking for trouble with the boss's industry, coercion and temptation, there is a lot of power behind the scenes, and the local government is involved, and some places can't resist it." The house steward hurriedly came to report.
"Did you find out who it was?" Zhou Xiya stood up, hesitated and suddenly stood very violently, her eyes were dizzy, she was injured and lost too much blood, and it was not so easy to recuperate.
"Miss be careful" The room manager reminded, and only said after seeing Zhou Xiya holding on to the table: "I have been checking along the way, but these are small characters, it seems to be a temptation, and they are all small industries, I have sent someone to continue to investigate, as long as they come forward, they will definitely be able to know who is doing these things, and those who can get the news so quickly are likely to be the murderers of the boss." β
"Yes, but these people are just temptations, and they can't spare them, let them know that no one can touch Li Mu's industry, and clean them up fiercely, and Li Mu's secret industry must be strengthened, and those people must not be allowed to find a place, even if some of the industries outside are lost, they are just some skins, and the foundation must not be moved." Zhou Xiya's face was fierce, since she dared to provoke, she would beat her hard.
"Yes," the housekeeper nodded. "Miss, I don't know if your injuries are better, this is not the capital after all, and all kinds of scheduling are inconvenient."
"My injuries are fine, it's time to go back, you go and prepare, let's leave as soon as possible." Zhou Xiya clenched her fists and looked firm, she still has a battle to fight, this is not their battle field, the final duel is in the capital, it is a struggle for power, whoever has the power can protect these industries.
After the house steward went out, Chen helped Zhou Xiya to sit down, "Why are you so desperate, how can you heal your injuries if you go on like this?"
"Uncle, I'm helpless, tell my uncle and let him prescribe medicine for me, so as not to delay the trip on the road because of my illness." Zhou Xiya shook her head.
On the way back, Zhou Xiya had already learned from the house manager that the person behind the suppression and snatching of Li Mu's industry was the Jinzhong Wang family.
And Zhou Guangxun also investigated that the general Wang in Zhou Xiya's mouth was an official in Zhenjiang, not far from Yangzhou, so he was able to transfer troops to Yangzhou to ambush, and this general Wang was a member of the Wang family.
"How could the Wang family fight Li Mu's idea, could it be that Li Mu and the Wang family have a holiday?" Zhou Xiya was also puzzled, and immediately asked the house manager.
The house manager also shook his head, "Although the boss has business dealings with the Wang family, they are all small businesses, and there are no deeper contacts, and they are definitely not to the point of killing people and stealing business, and this time it is so menacing, it is not like it is because of contradictions." β
"Yes, so they have a big plan, get rid of Li Mu and rob his property, don't it look like it's because of the festival? This time, Li Mu went to Jiangnan and did a lot of business with whom, could it be that he did something that made people worry about it? Zhou Guangxun continued to ask, Li Mu has moved from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, so many well-informed people already know that the famous businessman is Li Mu.
"The biggest business Li Mu did this time was an arms deal with the Xiao family, and the transaction amount was very large." Zhou Xiya replied directly, she has been following Li Mu, so she knows what Li Mu has done.
"The Xiao family... Xiao Family... What's the connection? Zhou Guangxun wrote a Xiao character and a Wang character on the table, closed his eyes and thought about the relationship between the two families in his family's secret report system. Their family has its own intelligence system, which specializes in collecting all kinds of information to facilitate response, and he is responsible for these things, so he knows more.
"I remember that the wife of the eldest son of the Xiao family is from the Wang family, and she is the daughter of the Wang family, and the relationship between the Xiao and Wang families is good." Zhou Guangxun opened his eyes again and said slowly, and wrote the names of Yangzhou and Zhenjiang on the paper, "This is the closest and the best person to mobilize."
"Are you saying that someone from the Xiao family is making waves behind this matter." Zhou Xiya couldn't believe it, could it be that Xiao Jingqing did it?
"Perhaps, if it was really done by the Xiao family, this would explain why Qing obviously died in the end." Zhou Jianxiong was noncommittal, and now everyone is the object of suspicion.
"No matter who it is, I, Zhou Xiya, will never give up, I will let him pay for his blood debts" Zhou Xiya's words came out from between his teeth.
ββββββββββββ
"The eldest son, the third son, it's not good, Li Mu's property was not taken, but was heavily suppressed by the Zhou family." The person in charge of the Wang family's contact with the Xiao family hurriedly came to find Xiao Ruiqing.
"The Zhou family? Which Zhou family? The third Xiao Yanqing was puzzled.
"The Zhou family of Zhou Jianxiong, the general who protects the country, the third prince doesn't know, this Li Mu is Zhou Jianxiong's future son-in-law, now Li Mu is dead, the Zhou family has taken over Li Mu's industry, and now everything is taken care of by General Zhou's daughter, this time we snatched a small part of Li Mu's industry, and we were severely suppressed by the Zhou family, this time it is not Zhou Jianxiong's branch, but the entire Zhou family has stood up, and our people have been damaged, presumably they already know that it is our Wang family who is making up their minds." The housekeeper was a little flustered, he didn't eat the meat, and he made a commotion.
The Xiao family didn't go to the test, but let the people of the Wang family test first, but they kicked the stone, and the people of the Wang family lost so much.
"Hey! Unexpectedly, we planned for a long time, but we made wedding clothes for the Zhou family, and we got such a big family business as Li Mu. Xiao Yanqing slapped the table.
"Who said it wasn't, the head of the family sent a letter and asked the two of them to have an idea" The Wang family shrunk, this matter is still good for the Xiao family.
"Big brother, what is there to hesitate about, there are people in their Zhou family, our Xiao family is a bare-rod general, compare power, see if he is the big Zhou family or my Xiao family, dare to swallow such a big piece of cake, and I am not afraid of choking them to death." Xiao Yanqing said disdainfully.
"Nonsense, the Zhou family is so easy to offend, don't forget, the Zhou family still has hundreds of thousands of troops at the border, even my father wants to try his best to win over the Zhou family, if we dare to go against the Zhou family, not to mention how the Zhou family is, even my father will clean us up first." Xiao Ruiqing scolded.
"The hard one doesn't work, just come to the soft one, I'll go out and marry the young lady of the Zhou family, I don't mind if she just died fiancΓ©." Xiao Yanqing said shamelessly. (To be continued......)
