Chen Qi took the soldiers to clean up the bricks and stones piled up at the city gate, and welcomed Liu De into the city gate.

Liu De ordered: "Block the city gate, post an announcement, send soldiers to maintain law and order in the city, arrest the defeated enemy army and Chu Ying, let Dian Wei take people there, Chu Ying's force is not an opponent!" ”

"Order!" Chen Qi said yes.

"And take Yang Zichuan and his subordinates' family clans into custody!" Liu De thought for a while and continued.

At this time, Jiang Lin came to report: "Lord Qi, the Che family, the Zheng family, the Wang family, the Gu family and other big clans in the city sent people to ask to see the lord!" ”

"Who are they?" Liu De asked.

"According to the humble position, most of them are their housekeepers or nephews in the family."

"What a big family with no fear!" Liu De's tone is quite bad, Liu De is the lord of Dongyu City, General Anbei, Marquis of Dongyu, the feudal official of Yanzhou, in charge of tens of thousands of horses, I didn't expect these families to only send their own housekeepers and nephews to come over, it can be seen that they didn't take Liu De in their eyes at all.

Although Liu De captured Liaocheng, in the eyes of several great families, Liu De is a little doll, and sending a few sons and nephews over is probably considered a gift to Liu De!

I have to scold behind my back, son of a veteran! Vertical child!

"It seems that they are really not afraid of someone to do something to them!" Liu De's face tended to be calm, Xu Hu, who was guarding the side, shook his eyebrows, and the calmer the lord's expression, the more he endured the huge anger, if it broke out, it would definitely not be solved by simply shedding a little blood.

"My lord! Now that the enemy is current, Yang Zichuan has not been destroyed, and it is still mainly to maintain stability, and with our current soldiers and horses, I am afraid that we will not be able to control the entire Liaocheng! Xu Shu may have also seen Liu De's thoughts, and hurriedly persuaded,

"With Dongyu's current strength, it is impossible to compete with the family for the control of Liaocheng, Yang Zichuan has been in the position of state pastor for decades, and he still needs to rely on these big families, we can only cooperate with them to jointly govern Liaocheng, and gradually take back the rights in three or five years, or even ten years! If there is a conflict, they can paralyze Liaocheng in an instant, and our government decree will not be able to leave the government! ”

Liu Della tightened the reins of the horse and said to Xu Shu: "These families are just bullying the soft and afraid of the hard, if we are a little weaker, they will gain an inch, and they will become more and more rampant, they will not put us in their eyes at all, and in three or five years, we will be overtaken by them!" ”

"Jiang Lin, don't care about those family members, you want to give me a dismount? I'd like to see if their necks are harder than knives! ”

"Lord, please think twice!" Xu Shu saw Liu De's murderous intent and hurriedly persuaded him.

"Okay, military advisor, I have a sense of proportion!"

Liu De interrupted: "Jiang Lin, the grain and grass in the city have long been burned, but Chu Ying can still support it until now, there must be someone who supports him to give him grain and grass, only the big clans in the city can have this ability, find him out for me!" Punish someone as a warning to others! ”

"My lord, what if these families unite to resist?" Xu Shu was still a little worried.

"Don't worry, the family is a group of greedy and selfish people, as long as we don't expand the scope of the attack, they will definitely not unite to resist, not to mention that the interests left by the family that we exterminated will also make them fight endlessly, the so-called alliance is just a joke!"

"The lord is extremely intelligent, and he can't do it!" Xu Shu lightly patted Liu De's ass.

Liu De looked at Xu Shu's intelligence of 93, and when he looked at his intelligence value of 72, he glanced at him, Xu Shu's sycophant level is still not enough!

Are you mocking yourself...

Liu De continued to order: "Send orders and let Yan Nan, Tan Zheng, and Mi Zhu come over to preside over the overall situation of Liaocheng!" Zheng Fu stayed in Dongyu. ”

"Yes! The last general commands! ”

......

"Lord Captain, this is the family!"

Jiang Haifeng pointed to a vermilion gate and said to Jiang Lin.

"Who! Noisy outside the door, do you know where this is? The porter scolded and opened the door.

When he raised his eyes and saw the Dongyu soldiers gathered at the door, he instantly said, "Mom! With a bang, he slammed the door shut.

Jiang Lin waved his hand, Jiang Haifeng instantly understood what his father meant, and directly slammed open the door with a few wolf-like Dongyu soldiers, and suddenly there were bursts of exclamations in the house.

......

"What? Are you saying that the Dongyu army arrested the entire Wei family, old and young? The head of the Wang family stood up and said in surprise.

"Yes! Just now, without saying anything, he broke into the Wei Mansion, and the whole family was arrested and sent to prison! The crime is to provide food to Chu Ying and harbor enemy soldiers! A subordinate said.

"What a bullshit charge! Fast! Keep inquiring! The head of the Wang family said hurriedly, "By the way, prepare a horse for me, I want to go to the Zheng family." What does this son of a veteran want to do! Without our support, how could he be in charge of such a large Liaocheng! What's more, he only captured Liaocheng, and Yangzhou Mu Ke still has an army of 100,000! ”

After a while, several famous families in Liaocheng gathered at the Zheng family to discuss countermeasures.

Zheng Kui, the head of the Zheng family, is more than 70 years old, he is a scheming old man, Zheng Kui looked at the people who were shouting, coughed lightly twice, and waited for everyone's voices to get quieter, then he whispered: "I just got another news, the Bao family was also raided by the Dongyu army!" ”

Inside the hall, it exploded all at once!

The script is not played like this, it shouldn't be Liu Decheng who is terrified to meet the people he sent, and then the two sides discuss with each other and jointly take charge of Liaocheng, you don't interfere with me, I don't interfere with you!

We have filial piety every year, you see, it's all good!

Why didn't you even see it, and started to flip the table?

"Brother Zheng, we can't let Liu De'er go on like this!" A wealthy old man stood up and said to Zheng Kui.

He is the head of the Gu family, Gu Pu, although he looks generous, but in fact he is quite ruthless and cunning, and he was also famous in Liaocheng back then.

"He Liu De is unkind, don't blame us for being unjust!" A hint of ruthlessness flashed in Gu Pu's eyes!

"The head of the Gu family must not be reckless, this Liu De has made a great reputation since he inherited the ancestral business, I am afraid that these small paths will not succeed, if they do not succeed, and anger Liu De, I am afraid that we will not be able to please them!" Zheng Kui stroked the goatee under his chin and squinted his eyes and said to Gu Pu.

"Brother Zheng is old, he lives up to his year!"

Gu Pu's face was not good, and he sneered.

"Huh!" Zheng Kui smiled and didn't refute, just drinking tea on the side.

"Master, master!"

A servant rushed in and said to Zheng Kui: "Master, General Anbei has sent someone over!" ”

"It's coming!"

Zheng Kui put down the cup in his hand, as if he had expected Liu De to send someone over.

"Let him in!" Zheng Kui said.

"Yes!"

Chen Qi strode into the hall, looked around, and suddenly smiled: "Since you are all here, then save one by one to find it!" My lord invites you to go to the palace tonight, and I ask you to arrive on time, don't be unpredictable! ”

Anyway, don't stay, pull away.

"Bang dang!"

Gu Pu slammed the cup in his hand to the ground, and said angrily: "Don't say anything unexpected? The old man wants to see what kind of unpredictable method he says! Farewell, everyone! ”

There were also several family heads who also bowed to Zheng Kui and the others, and left with Gu Pu!

Zheng Kui gently swept the tea leaves in the cup with the lid of the cup, looked at the people who were a little panicked, and said, "In this case, everyone will go back first!" ”

"Gong Zheng, what should we do?" One of them asked uneasily, apparently out of mind.

"The Gu family master has a ruthless personality, and now he is even more arrogant, and now people are swordsmans and I am fish and meat, but the Gu family master wants to take the knife and fight back, this is the way to die, if you believe me, then go to the government tonight. Enwei and Shi, Enwei and Shi, now Wei is below, and the next must be En! As long as we don't make some small moves, Liu De will not deal with us easily, after all, it is still the old saying, Liaocheng can't do without us, but it's okay to have one or two less families. ”

The other heads of the family glanced at each other and bowed to Zheng Kui: "Zheng Gong is righteous, we will abide by Zheng Gong's words. ”

Zheng Kui nodded, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and the rest of the people understood what he meant, and retreated one after another.

Zheng Kui looked at the departing figures of the heads of the family, and beckoned to the person behind him, who hurriedly stepped forward and bowed his head and said, "Father!" ”

"You go out through the back door and go to the government office to send a message to General Anbei..."Zheng Kui commanded in a low voice.

The more Zheng Kui's son listened, the more shocked he became: "Father, is this..."

Zheng Kui waved his hand to stop what his son wanted to say, and said to him: "Do what the old man tells you!" ”

"Son commands!"

Zheng Boqi was hindered by his father's majesty, so he didn't dare to refute it, and nodded in response.

Zheng Boqi quietly went out the back door and went to the mansion to meet Liu De.

Liu De sat on the main seat, looked at Zheng Boqi under the hall, and asked with a smile: "I don't know what Zheng Gongzi is talking about?" ”

"General Qiqi Anbei, my father asked me to tell you a piece of news!" Zheng Boqi bowed.

"What?"

"General Anbei, Gu Pu, the head of the Gu family, is quite dissatisfied with the general and wants to assassinate the general!"

Liu De tapped his finger on the case, his face was a little cold, and he suddenly smiled again: "Dare to ask why Zheng Gong told this news?" ”

"This..."Zheng Boqi bowed: "The general is virtuous all over the world, and my father respects him deeply!" ”

"Hahaha!"

Liu De laughed, "Okay, in that case, you tell Zheng Gong that General Ben already knows, thank you Zheng Gong, there will be a good reward in the future!" ”

"Yes! Retire under the next! ”

Zheng Boqi bowed his hand and bowed.

After Zheng Boqi left, Liu De ordered: "Xu Hu, Peng Yue, you two go and arrest all the Gu family members, if you resist, you will be killed!" ”

Xu Hu and Peng Yue came out of the ranks: "Yes!" ”

......

Liaocheng, Gufu.

"Everyone!"

Gu Pu's eyes were like eagle vultures, he looked extraordinarily infiltrating, his arms were on the table, he looked at the few family heads sitting below, and said gloomily: "Liu De is not a son of man, he openly insults us, when Yang Zichuan came to Yanzhou, he never treated our big families like this, he Liu De dared to be so arrogant, he was really angry old man!" I want to eradicate Liu De, are you willing to help? ”

"Brother Gu, there are nearly 10,000 soldiers and horses in Liu Decheng! Even Chu Ying is not an opponent, what can we do to eradicate him! One asked.

"It's easy to dodge open guns, but it's hard to defend against dark arrows! As long as a few dead soldiers are dispatched, forgive Liu De'er for not living tonight! Gu Pu's words were full of disdain for Liu De.

"Why don't you ask Zheng Gong!" Someone proposed, and the others who heard this also spoke out in agreement. Zheng Kui's status in Liaocheng is second only to Yang Zichuan, the governor of Yanzhou.

"Humph!"

Gu Pu's heart was on fire, and he suddenly slapped the case: "Zheng Kui has long lost the courage of the year, so indecisive, how can he achieve great things!" Look at you guys, idiots! ”

Gu Pu almost pointed his nose and scolded them, then flicked his sleeves and said, "Forget it, the old man doesn't need you anymore, don't do your best to help when the time comes, but in order to prevent leaks, you will rest in the old man's mansion for one night!" ”

The rest of the family heads had no choice but to agree, and they didn't dare to resist Gu Pu's yín ēi at all.

When Gu Pu came out of the living room, he turned around and went to the study, followed by a stout man.

Gu Pu said: "Gu Wu, you bring those people to the old man's study, and the old man has to give a good explanation!" ”

"Yes!" Gu Wu replied.

In the study, Gu Pu said solemnly to several men in black: "What the old man said, are you all clear?" ”

"Master Qiqi, we understand!"

Several people hurriedly bowed.

"Yes!"

Gu Pu nodded, "After the matter is completed, you and other family members, the old man will take care of him, and the old man will also find a university scholar to teach, and in the future, the old man will be recommended as an official, so you can rest assured!" ”

When several people heard Gu Pu say this, they were all grateful, speechless, and kowtowed: "The old man is kind and waiting, we are toothless and unforgettable, and we will repay the great kindness of the old man with our lives!" ”

"That's good! Get up! ”

Gu Pu finally showed a smile and turned around and sat back in his seat.

And at this moment, there was a sudden shouting outside, and there was a noise!

Gu Pu put down the teacup and asked with an unswerving face, "What happened?" So noisy! Gu Wu, go over and take a look! ”

Gu Wu nodded yes, and was about to open the door to check.

Unexpectedly, a family member covered in blood stumbled over and fell in front of Gu Wu all of a sudden.

Gu Wu grabbed Jiading's arm with his hand, so as not to let him fall, Gu Pu saw Jiading covered in blood, his heart was suddenly shocked, he walked a few steps quickly to the front, with an angry face, and asked, "What happened!" ”

The family said weakly: "Master, go quickly!" The Dongyu army has come in! ”

"What!?"

Gu Pu's heart was shocked, and he said to Gu Wu: "Gu Wu, come with the old man!" ”

"Master Gu, where do you want to run?" A rather rough voice came from behind Gu Pu, and Gu Pu turned his head to see a big man with a bearded face standing in the corridor not far away with a knife.

A playful smile at himself.

Is that another look at a dead man?
