The screams alarmed the entire Zheng family in the square. For a while, the lights were lit up.

In Zheng Ming's courtyard, the person who was the leader had a heart: "Before anyone comes, kill him quickly, don't leave him alive." ”

A group of people did not dare to enter through the window again, turned around and came to the door, and after the person in front kicked the door open, a huge shadow suddenly flew out of the room, and the people in front of them were caught off guard and were knocked into the door.

The people behind hurriedly dodged, only to see that it turned out to be a large stump similar to a battering ram that had been hung on the roof of the house, and the front had been sharpened, and now there were two people hanging on it, and the tip pierced the stomachs of the two people like a sugar gourd, and it seemed that they would not survive. At this time, four figures appeared at the door of the house, holding steel crossbows in a burst of shooting.

The black-clothed man outside the door hurriedly dodged away, and Zheng Ming in the room smiled: "This three-in-a-row crossbow is really useful, brothers, kill it!" ”

After saying that, he threw away the crossbow in his hand, drew his dog-legged machete, and took the lead in killing it.

The man in black in the courtyard looked at Zheng Ming coldly and said, "Today is to kill you, a traitor to the Zheng family, don't meddle with other people's affairs, the affairs of the Zheng family are not something you can participate in・・・・・・"

Before he could finish his sentence, another bolt flew out of the room. It was dark and this person's attention was all on Zheng Ming, and the crossbow arrow actually pierced directly into the center of this person's eyebrows, and the strength was so great that it actually penetrated from the back of this person's head.

Zheng Ming looked at the corpse that fell to the ground and said, "You are also the Zheng family, is it worth it to work hard for the people in the main room every day?" The people in the main room are waiting for our lives as dogs, and you actually give them their lives, what a bunch of cheap bones. ”

The other man in black smiled coldly: "Even if you say that you will kill you today, if you say a few of you, I can't save you today!" Everyone, up! ”

A group of black-clothed people surrounded Zheng Ming and several of them, and used the long swords in their hands to stab or pick up, besieging Zheng Ming and the others. The leader said to the others, "There's another one in the house, don't let it go!" ”

Zheng Ming swung his knife to hold a person's long sword, raised his leg and kicked the man's lower abdomen:

"Die!"

More than a dozen people gathered around Zheng Ming and the four of them, and from time to time they were ready to sneak attack.

At this time, there was a sound of cheating on the roof, and several people who were about to enter the house were all nailed to the ground, and then several figures jumped down from the roof and killed the crowd.

At this time, on the street outside Zheng Ming's yard, there were already many members of the Zheng family running towards this side.

In the afternoon, Zheng Ming told them that maybe someone from the main house would come to kill him in the evening. At that time, everyone thought that Zheng Ming was trying to win their sympathy and let them have a bad relationship with the main house, who knew that the main house really sent someone. Thinking that if one day he would be killed by the people in the main room, these people couldn't sit still. When he heard the movement, he ran out of the house and wanted to confront the people in the main room.

The situation quickly stabilized, and the people next to Zheng Ming were all the best in the blood drops, and they were extremely proficient in assassination and sneak attacks. In the face of the ordinary Zheng family guards, these people didn't even use Professor Bai Jingjing's combined attack technique.

When the people from the Zheng family all poured into Zheng Ming's courtyard with torches, an old man older than Zheng Ming walked out of the crowd tremblingly, looked at the severed leg in front of him and couldn't help asking, "Ming'er, have you ever been injured?" ”

Zheng Ming said with a smile: "Let the third grandfather worry, Ming is fine." These people were all sent by the head of the family to kill their grandchildren, fortunately, there are a few friends from Luoyang who are here to spend the night tonight, otherwise you and my ancestors and grandchildren, I am afraid that we will be separated by yin and yang. ”

Although the old man is a side person, he has a lot of prestige in the Zheng family. After listening to Zheng Ming's words, he angrily raised his cane and asked the people: "Is it really the head of the family?" ”

The man in black, who was surrounded by everyone, bowed his head and said, "The head of the family ordered Zheng Ming to be taken away, and if he couldn't do anything, he would be killed on the spot." ”

When the old man heard this, he immediately became anxious, and he held a cane and knocked on the heads of these black-clothed people: "It's really a long skill, even his own family is so ruthless, did he donate his conscience by believing in Maitreya?" The old man didn't want to take care of the junior's affairs, but your main room is so cold-blooded, don't blame the old man for meddling. What about the thousand-year-old family, it still has to be dispersed when it should be dispersed. ”

After speaking, the old man coughed twice and then said: "There are also a few of you, who were originally collateral people, but they turned out to be lackeys in the main room, let whoever you kill will be killed, and you will cut people directly if you are unstable." Didn't you suffer enough losses last time in Luoyang? The old fairy's nephew didn't let go, do you really think the Zheng family is amazing? You might as well try to be an emperor! The legacy of the millennium family is humble and low-key, not like you are like a bandit! ”

The old man was angry, not only because Zheng Ming was almost killed. The main reason is that Zheng Ming has changed too much this time, and he is also generous, courteous and courteous to others, humble and respectful to his elders, and also takes care of his peers. In addition, Zheng Ming is now the official body of Bapin, and he was still an ordinary guard two months ago, and the changes in this made the people next to the Zheng family see hope and hope to get ahead.

As a thousand-year-old family, the Zheng family has some ideas that have been deeply rooted, such as the distinction between descendants and concubines. The Zheng family is an official, mainly in the main house, and the side people are talented and learned, at most they are the accounts or stewards of the family, and most of the side lines are the same as ordinary families. Now Zheng Ming has become a teacher at the Laoshizi Military Academy in Luoyang with his own efforts, and he is also the kind with an official body, so that the people in the side are not calm, it turns out that in addition to working in the Zheng family, they can have other choices. Although everyone is surnamed Zheng, the difference in status has long made them complain in their hearts. And Zheng Ming is the fuse that ignites the resentment in their hearts.

After dawn, under the call of the old man, the Zheng family's side departments put down their work and poured into the Zheng family's compound together to confront the head of the family.

Zheng Ming blended in the crowd and whispered to the blood droplets next to him who were also dressed in disguise: "The general wants to kill the people in the main room, and you can do it while you are in the chaos later, but don't hurt these people." Although their surname is Zheng, they have thin blood with the people in the main room, and they have already come out of Wufu. Now they are in the Zheng family, just like tenants. ”

The person headed by the blood droplet nodded: "Captain Zheng, don't worry, I won't lose my eyes." After the people in the main room were killed, the rest of the things still needed to be arranged by Captain Zheng, after all, the general did not want to see a huge family, and His Majesty did not want to see it. If it weren't for the fact that Chang'an was far away, His Majesty would definitely send Jin Wuwei to come. Recently, the people in the main house of the Zheng family have gone home to settle accounts in various places, and the opportunity is rare, and no one wants to miss this opportunity. ”

Zheng Ming smiled: "The main reason is that your assassination a few days ago made the head of the family uneasy, so all the people in the main house nearby were recalled, and even if those from other places reacted now, they couldn't make any waves." Most of the officials in Xingyang are members of the Zheng family, so if you make a rash move, it won't bring any disadvantage to the general, right? ”

The man shook his head: "There may be some nonsense, but Your Majesty likes it, even if there is a minister to hold him accountable, it will not be over." The last time Gao Neijian came to Luoyang to deliver the decree, a secret letter from His Majesty was to ask the general to try his best to eradicate the family, these thousand-year-old families are really a huge hidden danger for the Tang Dynasty. There are only a few people in the main room, and if you don't shoot coldly, you should be able to kill with one blow. If there is a master in the Zheng family, Captain Zheng must not make a move, so as not to become the target of the Zheng family. ”

Zheng Ming followed the flow of people to the front yard and whispered: "Later, the head of the family will appear, and he will find a way to create chaos." Success or failure are all in this move, I hope you take care! ”

In the backyard of the Zheng family, all the people in the main house gathered around the head of the house to discuss countermeasures.

The head of the Zheng family is over fifty years old, with gray hair and a long beard, which has a kind of dusty taste.

He looked coldly at the person in the main room and said, "What is the noise?" A group of mud-legged people, follow the old man to reason with them. The old man wants to see that these people eat the Zheng family's clothes and the Zheng family's clothes, and they are so bold that they want to rebel. How can this be true, how can my thousand-year-old family collapse so easily? ”

A person in the main room of the Zheng family who was slightly younger than the head of the family said: "Big brother, why don't you let Xiao Wu go back to transfer troops, he is in the Xingyang garrison camp, and it won't take long to transfer troops." ”

At this time, a young man arched his hand and said: "Master of the family, I will go to the camp and come back soon, and no one can run away from these mud legs." ”

The head of the Zheng family waved his hand and said, "No need to do this, my Zheng family's own affairs, if the army is involved, how will other families think of me?" Where to put the name of the thousand-year-old family? Let's go, I'll wait to go to the front yard. ”

Under the leadership of Zheng Ming's third master, the people from the side met with the head of the family and other people in the main house in a garden in the middle of the Zheng family's compound. The surroundings of the Zheng family's main room were densely packed with Zheng family's guards, all holding their breath and concentrating, for fear that someone would be unfavorable to the people in the main house.

An elderly man in the main room of the Zheng family angrily reprimanded Zheng Ming's third master: "Third child, you have violated the family rules by bringing so many people into the Zheng family's compound today. Aren't you afraid of family punishment? ”

The old man smiled coldly: "The old man came to the head of the family to theorize, what are you?" Xiao Dezi, you said it yourself, since you became the head of the family, has the Zheng family had any good days? The people in the main house spend all day drinking, and the people in the side are tired and tired and can't eat, this is the inheritance of the thousand-year-old family? ”

The head of the Zheng family smiled and said, "Did the third uncle also come to teach a lesson?" Since ancient times, the young and the young have been orderly, and the descendants are different. What if you can't get enough to eat? The family has already posted money to you, can't you let the people in the main house work like you? ”

Zheng Ming shouted and scolded in the crowd: "Go to your mother's concubine, they are all two shoulders and one head, why do you sit back and enjoy it?" If this is the case, it is better to divide the family directly, and each has its own way. ”

The head of the Zheng family walked forward two cloths, glared at Zheng Ming angrily and said, "You are that Zheng Ming?" Family traitor, what qualifications do you have to enter the Zheng family! Come on, enforce the family law, and clean up the portal! ”
