The lord of Qingzhou, Gongsun Yi, does not know the life and death, for a while there are different opinions, not long ago the eldest lady of the Kong family Kong Yue did not know where to go, many people in Qingzhou began to look for a way out, people's minds changed, and many forces behind the turmoil participated in it, and Qingzhou was shrouded in clouds.

Qingzhou Le'an Country, one of the nine counties in the city, belongs to a rather luxurious mansion of the Chen family, a wealthy family in Le'an Country, a group of scholars gathered together, on the surface of the guest friends, but in fact, it is to discuss how to ensure their own interests after Qingzhou changes hands.

With Gongsun Yi not knowing the life and death, the undercurrent in Qingzhou surged, and the families led by the Chen family besieged the Kong family, constantly encroaching on the strength of the Kong family, and the trade of the Kong family shrank significantly, and the eldest lady of the Kong family, Kong Yue, who is now married to Gongsun Yi, does not know the life and death, which makes these families unscrupulous.

At this time, the Kong family seems to have lost its former sharpness, allowing other families to seize trade interests, but shrinking their strength and retreating again and again, I am afraid that it will not be long before the Kong family will be pushed down from the position of the wealthy family in Qingzhou.

Chen Xin, the head of the Chen family, was dressed in a very expensive Shu forging brocade robe, and personally received a group of scholars who came in the banquet hall, although these scholars usually have their own calculations, but even if Qingzhou changes hands, the Xiao cavalry army will inevitably be divided, compared to the harm of the yellow turban thieves back then, the Xiao cavalry army is obviously more threatening, and the scholars have to unite to unite with the outside world.

Chen Xin, the head of the Chen family, beckoned all the guests to sit down, frequently raised his glass to invite everyone to drink, and after three rounds of wine, Chen Xin got up and looked around at the guests, and chuckled unhurriedly: "Everyone, I don't know the life and death of Gongsun Yi, the pregnant lady is unknown, and now Qingzhou is about to change the sky, I don't know what you think, it is better to enter and speak freely." ”

The Confucian student dressed in green clothes got up and said: "I, Ding Bao, am not talented, I am willing to follow the Chen family master, and my Ding family is willing to take the Chen family leader as the leader!" ”

"Brother Ding's words are serious, the old man is just a county order, how can he let Brother Ding follow, just want to unite sincerely and get through the difficulties together." Chen Xin waved his hand again and again, with a look of avoiding it and refusing again and again.

The guests sneered in their hearts, these two sang well and overflowed the double reed, but now among the families, only the Chen family has the right to mobilize Le'an national soldiers, which is equivalent to a county of soldiers, with two thousand armor soldiers in hand, plus a lot of strong people have recently been summoned to join, and the momentum is not small for a while.

Although the rest of the nobles were also prepared, it was not trivial to raise a standing army, not only did they need a large amount of food, armor, and silver, otherwise there was a great possibility of mutiny.

The heavy burden made these warriors miserable, but in order to avoid the annihilation of the family, they could only take out their old roots and persist, and they had no more than a thousand soldiers and no less than hundreds, which was also the reason why they had to unite.

It's just that these scholars are mainly wary of big families like the Chen family, and they don't want to become dependent on the Chen family, otherwise even if Qingzhou is pacified in the future, they will be annexed by the Chen family, and they will seek skin with the tiger, and they must be careful of the tiger's sharp teeth at any time.

Chen Xin resigned half of the salary, and the scholars continued to stand up and express their willingness to follow, Chen Xin could only reluctantly accept it, serve as the temporary leader of the alliance, and gather volunteers to protect himself.

Chen Xin's face was full of smiles, but for those other scholars who had been watching their noses and noses and not expressing their attitude, Chen Xin sneered in his heart, but he was not in a hurry to urge, in the future, the chaotic troops would attack, see who would save them, and ask for help when the time came, but he was not willing to follow this price today.

"Lord, it's a big deal, eldest prince, he" Suddenly, a servant rushed into the banquet hall with a panicked face, looked at the surrounding guests, and was a little stunned for a while.

Chen Xin was shocked and hurriedly reprimanded: "Tell me quickly, what's going on?!" ”

Chen Xin heard that it seemed to be about his son Chen Ke, and the family servant who was rumored to be so flustered must not be a good thing, and more importantly, all the county soldiers and newly recruited troops in the hands of the Chen family were led by Chen Ke, if something went wrong with Chen Ke, then the Chen family would no longer have the ability to control the situation.

"The eldest prince is seriously injured and returns!"

"What!" Chen Xin only felt a surge of blood, only to feel that his eyes were about to fall backwards as soon as it was dark, and Ding Bao, the head of the Ding Kong family who was standing on the side, hurriedly stepped forward to support him.

Chen Xin was halfway over, opened his eyes and said in a deep voice: "None of the outsiders here, come quickly, what happened!" ”

"Let's answer this question." With a clear voice coming from outside, a group of elite cavalry soldiers quickly rushed into the banquet hall, and a group of warriors trembled with fright, looking at the surrounding Xiao cavalry soldiers with sharp blades and a murderous awe-inspiring awe.

Gongsun Yi entered the banquet hall accompanied by Guan Hai and looked at Chen Xin with a chuckle.

"You're not dead."

"The assassination is a fraction of a second, it seems that God is still willing to let me continue to rule Qingzhou."

"What do you want?" Chen Xin asked coldly.

"Your Chen family is a big family in Le'anguo, my Gongsun Yi has always respected it, but it's a pity that you are not greedy enough to swallow elephants, and you get some benefits from Tao Qian, so you want to change your ways, and thousands of soldiers and armor are all killed because of you, tell me, how did you contact Tao Qian, when did Tao Qian plan to send troops?"

Seeing that Chen Xin was silent for a long time, Gongsun Yi nodded to Guan Hai beside him, Guan Hai sneered and stepped forward, grabbed Ding Bao, the head of the Ding family, cut off his head with a knife, and walked to Chen Xin with the head that was still dripping blood, his eyes were full of threats.

"I, I" Chen Xin was in a dilemma, Tao Qian had a lot of funding at the beginning, just to prove his loyalty, Chen Xin sent his youngest son to Xuzhou as a proton, if he said it at this time, his young son would die.

"Chen Xin, Ben will know that your young son is still in Xuzhou, if you don't say it, you can indeed save his life, but Ben Hou will unceremoniously behead your whole family, and will change the fate of your family because of your words!"

"You dare!" Gongsun Yi said this, Chen Xin felt that it was a bit of a bluff, killing the entire family of the Shi clan was very detrimental to his reputation, Gongsun Yi was known as a virtuous person, and he would never do anything to destroy the Great Wall.

"Why don't you dare, I could have killed all the people present, including their wives and children, and then declared that there were thieves and robbers, and I would have come to the rescue in the starry night, but I still couldn't catch up, and I have buried all the scholars." Gongsun Yi's words became colder and colder.

"I want a guarantee, you will let my family go!"

"If I break my promise and kill your whole family, Ben Hou will die again!" Gongsun Yi changed his words and said: "Don't forget, if it weren't for Ben Hou ordering your eldest son to return, do you think that with your eldest son's ability, you can break through the encirclement of the Xiao cavalry?" ”

Chen Xin knelt on the ground and bowed to Gongsun Yi: "Yonghou, the Chen family is willing to surrender, and please have the virtue of a good life and let my family go." Chen Xin nodded to the servant on the side.

Guan Hai took several Xiao cavalry soldiers to follow the servants, went to the Chen family's secret room, and soon returned, with a box of letters, Chen Xin personally stepped forward to find out the specific contact information with Tao Qian from it, as well as the time and place of meeting to send troops.

Gongsun Yi remained silent, and with a wave of his hand, the Xiao cavalry suddenly pressed several Chen family members to the banquet hall, and the sharp knife was on the neck of the frightened Chen Ke.

"Gongsun Yi, what do you want?" Chen Xin stood up and scolded sharply.

Suddenly, a cavalry soldier suddenly stabbed a sharp knife into the abdomen of a Chen family, and with a terrible scream, blood flowed for a while, and in less than a moment there was no breath.

"Stop, Gongsun Yi, you're not afraid of punishment fulfillment?!"

"Chen Xin, you think that this little bit of your mind Benhou can't see through, this is what you asked for!"

As soon as Gongsun Yi's words fell, two more Chen family members were killed on the spot.

When the sharp knife was aimed at Chen Ke's abdomen, Chen Xin suddenly knelt on the ground with a pale face, and said weakly: "Yonghou, I still hope for Haihan when I concealed it before!" ”

Chen Xin suddenly took off his clothes, tore off a piece of cloth sewn from his chest, took out a letter from it, and handed it to his trembling hands, Chen Xin's heart was dripping blood, and the moment he handed over this letter, it meant that his youngest son Chen Luo would definitely die, and his whole body trembled for a while, and his eyes were red.

The Xiao cavalry soldier took it, stepped forward and handed it to Gongsun Yi, Gongsun Yi swept it at a glance, the time and place plan was very detailed, presumably this time it should not be fake, secretly glad that he had a good eye, otherwise maybe according to what he said before, he would fall into Tao Qian's trap.

Gongsun Yi pulled out his sword, suddenly turned around and cut the neck of Chen Xin's son Chen Ke, and said casually and coldly: "There is no one left in the Shi clan present!" ”

Gongsun Yi stepped out of the hall, and there were terrible screams behind him, he didn't care about the oath Gongsun Yi, he had already died once when he crossed over, but he was not worried.
