Anning County, located in the territory of Chenliu in the south of Kaifeng Prefecture, is only 200 miles away from Bianjing City.

The majestic heavy rain fell from noon to night, and the heavy rain was like a line, and the dense raindrops hit the streets, roofs of houses, and branches of the small county town, washing away the dust left on them. In the rain and fog, a team of men and horses wearing hats and robes loomed into the county seat.

Although it has been raining heavily at night, Anning County is the only way to enter Bianjing in the south, so it is relatively prosperous, and the restaurants and teahouses on both sides of the street are lit up, and there are still many customers.

Many people noticed the group of men who entered the city in the heavy rain.

The clothes wrapped everyone in this team very tightly, and the wide hat added a bit of mystery, coupled with the rain-soaked horses with a black paint luster, as well as the cold light of the weapons exposed from time to time, it made people feel chills behind them from a distance, as if they were the dwarf soldiers of the underworld.

The sound of the horse's hooves getting farther and farther away, and the faces of the shopkeepers and guests in the teahouse and restaurant changed, but no one said anything, they all lowered their heads and ate tea and drank wine, as if no one had ever passed by outside.

Such a ghost weather, it is already night, the gate of the county has long been closed, ordinary people can not enter the city at all, can only stay in many inns or people's homes outside the city, and now at this time can enter the city in a grand manner, naturally the people of the government, everyone sees this team of people and horses hidden murderous, at this extraordinary time, no one dares to talk nonsense.

However, there were also some guests who had taken refuge from Jiangnan and were thoughtful in the direction of this team.

"That looks like the family is staying over there! Hmph......"

…………

In the southern city of Anning County, in a rich mansion, there are many carriages and horses parked in the shantyhouse, the little maids and maids who come and go speak a southern accent, and a team of vigorously armed guards patrol back and forth, it seems that the mansion is inhabited by rich and noble families who have taken refuge from the south.

After the rebellion in southern Jiangnan, many wealthy and wealthy families in Jiangnan fled to the north with their families, and this phenomenon has been very common in Anning County recently.

Lao Li looked at the dark night sky, and the endless rain seemed to never stop.

"I don't know when the rain will pass...... Alas! ”

Lao Li sighed and bolted the door.

Lao Li was originally the shopkeeper of the Anning County branch of Tiandi Bank, but since Zhu Mian was demoted, Tiandi Bank has completely collapsed, just half a month ago, Da Song Bank also opened a branch in Anning County, Tiandi Bank can no longer be able to support it, and it has closed.

It's good to close the door, at least get rid of bad luck! Lao Li didn't feel a pity at all, now the people in the north every Qingming Festival, they burn the silver tickets printed on the Tiandi Bank to sacrifice the dead, and no one in the Tiandi Bank has long come to deposit, and no one wants to use the real silver tickets printed with the words of the Tiandi Bank.

Unlucky.

And after Lao Li closed the bank, he also became the gatekeeper of the Zhu family's mansion in Anning County.

"Even these people are starting to get lazy........."

The heavy rain was still pouring, and the energetic guards patrolling the mansion were gradually gone, Lao Li yawned and shook his head, and said in his heart that the Zhu family was really going to decline!

Although the guards are lazy, nothing will happen on such a rainy night. Lao Li vaguely saw that the light in the young master's room in the courtyard had been extinguished, so he also planned to go back to the room to sleep.

Bang bang bang!

Lao Li just turned around and wanted to go back to the house, when he suddenly heard a deep knock on the door.

Bang bang bang!

The knock on the door was repeated regularly, and there was an eerie feeling on a rainy night. Lao Li was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself who would knock on the door in this weather?

However, considering the special identity of the young master in the hospital, Lao Li didn't think too much, and walked to the door and asked.

"Who's out the door?"

"Open the door! There is a holy decree coming from Bianjing! ”

There was a cold sound outside the door, much colder than the autumn rain.

"Holy Decree?!"

Lao Li was taken aback, but he was not a person who had never seen the world, so he did not open the door in panic, but said "wait a minute" to the door, and went straight into the inner courtyard to inform the young master.

Young master, it is naturally Zhu Mian.

After the door opened, in the dim light, Lord Lan and others outside the door saw Zhu Mian, and Zhu Mian also saw Lord Lan.

"It turned out to be Arashi-sama!"

Zhu Mian's face froze, but he still humbly saluted Lord Lan, he knew that Lan Ying was from Wuzhi's side, but he had not yet arrived in Bianjing, so he had to bear with it.

When he met Zhao Ji in Bianjing, he believed that Zhao Ji would inevitably regain his trust and regroup when the time came.

"I was ordered to deliver the decree, doesn't Lord Zhu plan to let me in?" Lord Lan smiled and said with a smile.

"How dare you! Arashi-sama, please come in! ”

After Zhu Mian finished speaking, Lord Lan took off his coat and hat, and led a team of heavily armed Imperial Forest Army to the hall of the mansion.

"Idle people, hurry up and retreat!"

After entering the hall, Lord Lan took out the holy decree and held it in his left hand with a solemn expression.

After Zhu Mian glanced at the housekeeper and several guards beside him, they retreated.

"Zhu Mian takes the order!"

Zhu Mian immediately bowed down, and Lord Lan conveyed to Zhu Mian the content of the holy decree that Zhu Mian was dismissed from office and demoted to Qiongzhou, and Zhu Mian's face was like ashes when he listened.

"Minister... The grass people take the order! ”

Zhu Mian raised his hands with difficulty, and Lord Lan disdainfully threw the holy decree into Zhu Mian's hand.

"Zhu Mian, this rebellion in Jiangnan was all caused by your Zhu family, and it is difficult for a hundred officials to tolerate you, and Your Majesty has treated you like this, which can be regarded as benevolent and righteous!" Lord Lan said coldly, "Tomorrow you have to go back the way you came and go to Qiongzhou." ”

Zhu Mian slowly stood up, and his expression became gloomy.

"Humph! Going back the way you came? I'm afraid that I will be killed by Fang La before I arrive in Qiongzhou! Zhu Mian sat down by himself and squinted at Lord Lan: "This will is Wu Zhi's obstruction, right?" Otherwise, Your Majesty would not have treated me like this! ”

"Hehe, you're wrong." Lord Lan also sat down with a sneer, and said, "This will is really Your Majesty's own will, if Lord Wu is in the way, how can you be so cheap?" ”

Zhu Mian squinted his eyes, stared at Lord Lan, and looked at the Imperial Forest Army beside Lord Lan with fear.

"At this time, Lord Lan said that Wu Zhi did not fall into the well? Do you think I'll believe it? ”

Zhu Mian also decided that even if he received the holy decree, he would go to Bianjing to see Zhao Ji, otherwise he would really be finished.

"Haha! Add insult to injury! I love the word! ”

Suddenly, a hearty laugh sounded, and Zhu Mian's face turned pale.

This laughter was not made by Arashi-sama, but by a "Royal Forest Army" beside Arashi-sama. And Zhu Mian had already heard the identity of the person who made the laughter.

"Wu Zhi!"

Wu Zhi took off the black iron helmet on his head, sorted out the armor on his body, held the sword at his waist, and sat in front of Zhu Mian.

"Zhu Mian, do you remember what you said when you left Bianjing! It doesn't seem to have been delivered! ”

After Zhu Mian saw Wu Zhi appear, he was not only frightened, but also full of suspicion, he saw Wu Zhi suddenly appear here, and his heart suddenly gave birth to an extremely ominous feeling, and his heart was shocked.

"Someone! Someone's coming! ”

Zhu Mian didn't answer Wu Zhi, but shouted outside in a panic.

Outside, it was raining heavily, and it was pitch black, as if there was no low black hole.

"Stop calling a hillbilly! Before we came, those guards of yours were wiped out by us, and now your family members outside have been taken down by the Royal Foresters! ”

Wu Zhi held his wrist guard and smiled warmly at Zhu Mian.

"You ......"

Zhu Mian stood up suddenly, pointed at Wu Zhi angrily, his eyes were red, but he couldn't say a word.

Wu Zhi hooked his hand, and the two Imperial Forest Soldiers stepped forward and pressed Zhu Mian's shoulders and pressed them to the seat, and Zhu Mian was a little depressed for a while.

"Zhu Mian, what you said to me when you left Bianjing no longer makes sense, right?" Wu Zhi stood up, slowly walked towards Zhu Mian, and continued: "But do you remember what I said to you? ”

Zhu Mian's face was horrifying, but he still looked up at Wu Zhi coldly and said, "What do you want?" ”

Wu Zhi didn't answer Zhu Mian, but said to himself: "I said, I will kill you and destroy your Zhu family." Now that Jiangnan is in turmoil, your Zhu family is almost wiped out, right? ”

"Could it be that Fang La ...... with you," Zhu Mian looked at Wu Zhi incredulously.

"Hehe, Fang La and I naturally have nothing to do with each other, but have a deep relationship with your Zhu family. The so-called many injustices will kill themselves, it's not that your Zhu family has done bad things all these years, how can Fang La gather so many people to rebel? ! ”

"Humph!"

Zhu Mian turned his head disdainfully.

Wu Zhi's eyes suddenly turned cold, and he slowly said to Zhu Mian: "Now it's your turn, you owe the lives of Lord Sun's family and the Zheng family, you should pay it back!" ”

After saying that, Lord Lan took out a pot of wine.

When Zhu Mian saw the wine, he immediately struggled to get up in horror, but was held down by the Imperial Forest Army.

"Wu Zhi! How dare you kill me without Your Majesty's will? ”

Wu Zhi just looked at Zhu Mian coldly and stopped talking.

Lord Lan poured a glass of wine and brought it to Zhu Mian: "You have repeatedly murdered my family, and now thanks to your past suspicions, I will give you a decent way to die, I advise you to know each other obediently." You've been in officialdom for many years, so you can't see that you have no chance of surviving right now, right? This is a gift from His Majesty, so try it! ”

Zhu Mian clenched his teeth, looked at Wu Zhi, and then at Lord Lan and a room of Imperial Forest Army, and had no choice but to take the wine glass tremblingly.

"Wu Zhi, you ......"

Zhu Mian stared at Wu Zhi with red eyes.

Wu Zhi ignored Zhu Mian, he remembered the various processes of handling the Sun family's case, the traces of the burned corpses, the countless burned charred corpses of all sizes in the morgue, the Zheng family and his wife dug up, and the weak and half-decomposed corpses of their children.........

The culprit of all this is Zhu Mian in front of him!

And Wu Zhi is finally going to seek justice for the deceased completely!

"You go to die!"

With a violent roar, Zhu Mian suddenly got up and poured his hand poisoned wine at Wu Zhimian's door.

"Be careful, sir!"

Lord Lan reacted very quickly, and in an instant, he used his body to block the poisonous wine poured on Wu Zhi, and a cup of poisonous wine was poured on Lord Lan's armor.

And the other Imperial Forest Army also captured Zhu Mian as soon as possible.

"You have to force me to kill you with my own hands!" Wu Zhi slowly got up and picked up the wine jug, "Pry his mouth open for me!" ”

"Wu Zhi, you can't ...... well"

Before Zhu Mian's vicious words could be spoken, he was pried open by the Imperial Forest Army, and then Wu Zhi took the wine jug and poured it directly into Zhu Mian's mouth.

…………

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier, and the rain was beating on the tiles and hitting the floor tiles, and the sound overshadowed all the sounds, and the whole night in Anning County was the sound of rain falling on the ground.

After a rain of this magnitude, the whole earth will be renewed.
