"Okay, don't say these polite words, go back and have a good rest, and wait for my news." Xu Wen sat on the chair, and the person who dealt with Li Zhutou was probably someone from the Zhang family, or Lu Yong. The purpose is to weaken his Xu Wen's power, so that he can better deal with him.

"Okay, the little one will go back first, and wait for the good news from Lord Xu." After speaking, Li Zhutou respectfully withdrew. At this time, there was already an unbridgeable gap between him and Xu Wen.

Before, when Xu Wen was still the small owner of an inn, he could still sit down and drink with Xu Wen, and he could also warn Xu Wen seriously.

But now, drinking with Xu Wen, then he will never dare, even if he sits down, he will be very restrained, and he will never dare to tell Xu Wen anything.

He felt that Xu Wen was very smart, at least, he must be smarter than him.

After Li Zhutou left, the more Xu Wen thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong, as if something was going to happen. He shouted, and a guard walked in, holding a saber in his hand, and respectfully clenched his fists, "What do you command?" ”

"You take a team of people to protect the safety of Li Zhutou, and if there is anything abnormal, come back and report immediately. If anyone dares to do it, there will be no mercy! ”

"Yes!" The guards were ordered to leave.

Xu Wen felt uneasy in his heart, always feeling that something was going to happen.

Now, many people treat him as a thorn in the side and a thorn in the flesh. Countless people want his life, and as long as he dies, the interests of those people can continue.

At this moment, a slave came running outside, and after coming in, he said anxiously to Xu Wen: "Oh no, my lord, there are a lot of people outside, making a big fuss outside." ”

"Whoa? What are they messing about? Xu Wen asked suspiciously, this is Lang Zhongling's mansion, and someone dares to come here to make a fuss! Could it be because of the charter and Lu Ming's affairs?

"They...... They ......" the servant paused, and stopped talking, but did not say any more.

Xu Wen narrowed his eyes and asked in a deep voice, "Say, what are they making trouble?" ”

The slave thought for a while, and then said timidly: "They said outside, my lord, my lord kills innocents indiscriminately, and I must give everyone an explanation, otherwise, they won't leave!" ”

Xu Wen stood up and gritted his teeth, this matter must be the Zhang family's ghost behind his back.

This damn Zhang family, it seems, friction with them is inevitable.

That's right, if he wants to kill the charter, he doesn't give the Zhang family face, and he is also slapping the Zhang family in the face, and the Zhang family will let her kill the charter in a good manner.

"Let's go, come out with me." Xu Wen said, walked quickly to the door of the mansion, walked through the middle courtyard, stood at the gate of the mansion, and looked at the hundreds of people who were making a fuss.

No, there are not only hundreds of people, but there are at least two or three hundred people here, men, women and children.

They shouted for Xu Wen to give an explanation.

"Lord Xu, what else do you have to say, you must give us an explanation today, Mrs. Yu, she has already hanged herself!" An old man said viciously.

"What? That woman hanged herself? Xu Wen frowned, feeling that something was wrong. He asked Li Zhutou to investigate the matter, but Li Zhutou's current official position has been removed, and the woman also hanged herself.

"After Mrs. Yu went back, because she missed her husband and was humiliated by you, she has now hanged herself, what else do you have to say?" The old man looked at Xu Wen very unkindly, "I watched her grow up, and now that she is martyred, you must give an explanation!" ”

The guard pointed sharply at the old man, "Dead old man, if you talk nonsense again, I'll arrest you!" ”

The old man didn't look scared at all, he patted his chest and said, "My old man has lived for most of his life, what am I afraid of?" If you want to kill me, then come, I am not afraid of death, but as long as I live, I will not give up! ”

Xu Wen didn't speak, he looked at these people who were making a fuss, and was thinking of a countermeasure to deal with it.

The woman died, obviously, definitely man-made. But he couldn't think of a way to deal with it in a short period of time.

"Today, either you give an explanation, or you let Zhang Gongzi go!" A crowd shouted.

Their purpose is even more obvious, that is, to force Xu Wen to release the charter.

In their minds, the charter is a real hero, and Xu Wen is a despicable and shameless villain, shameless! They wish that Xu Wen would die at the gate now.

If it weren't for the fact that there were so many guards here, those rioting people would probably have already rushed up with wooden sticks and beat Xu Wen violently.

"Everyone, calm down, I have something to tell you!" Xu Wen said lightly.

"We don't have anything to say to you, you let Zhang Gongzi go, let Zhang Gongzi go!" The old man raised his hand and shouted, and the people around him also began to shout in unison, and no one listened to Xu Wen's words.

The two guards standing beside Xu Wen were obviously also a little anxious.

Xu Wen's face was expressionless, his face was calm, and his tone was not shocked, "I, Xu Wen, will definitely admit what I have done, but I will not admit what I have not done." Based on Zhou Chi's words alone, how can you be sure that Mrs. Yu's husband was killed by me? Did I cause her death? ”

"Don't talk nonsense, who else can it be if it's not you! Now that everyone is dead, what's the use of saying so much, now, you let Zhang Gongzi go, let's leave here, otherwise, we won't be done with you! The old man shouted.

The guards beside Xu Wen snorted coldly, drew their knives, and said coldly: "Whoever dares to mess around on this road again, don't blame me for being rude!" ”

At the same time, more than a dozen guards ran out and stood at the gate, they drew their knives and looked at these people with fierce eyes.

But these people are not afraid of death at all, or rather, they don't believe that Xu Wen dares to be here and kill them all.

Xu Wen glanced at the guards beside him and said softly, "Put the knife away." ”

The guard hesitated for a moment, "But ......"

"Put it away." Xu Wen's tone was cold.

The guard sighed inwardly, put away the long knife, and turned to look at the other guards, "Everyone put the knife away." ”

When the people saw the guards put away their knives, they became even more arrogant, thinking that Xu Wen was afraid of them.

Especially the old man, who looked at Xu Wen very arrogantly, pointed at Xu Wen and scolded: "Xu Wen, you despicable and shameless villain, as long as I am alive, I will definitely not let you go, even if I die, I will turn into a ghost and come to you!" ”
