Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Funeral of the Wang Family

Qinglong County has been extraordinarily calm these days, as if there are many fewer pedestrians on the streets. In late spring, it is the rainy season, and Qinglong County has a misty drizzle today, as thin as hair, and it falls silently.

On the main road leading to the north city gate, yellow paper is all over the sky, paper money is everywhere, and the palace musicians are singing in unison, and the crying and mourning are endless. The funeral procession of the Wang family has marched to the city gate, there are no less than 100 people before and after, and a cadre and so on are all dressed in white linen, nine steps and one buckle, in order to set an example of filial piety. It is not difficult to see how prosperous the Wang family, which is among the three major families in Qinglong County, is prosperous.

Wang Wei was carried by two servants and walked at the front of the honor guard, holding the spiritual seat of his father Wang Yuntian in his hand, crying silently. Mrs. Wang and her youngest daughter Wang Ruotong behind her were even more heartbroken. There are eight strong men in the back carrying the golden silk nanmu coffins that the Wang family spent a lot of money to build for the dead father and son, in order to show the family nobility.

On the third floor of a restaurant next to the city gate, Xiao Yao sat against the railing, and Cui Gang stood with his hands in his hands, looking at the scene on the street, sighing. Xiao Yao looked at the three golden silk nanmu coffins, "The Wang family is really magnificent, three such valuable coffins come at once, and the reputation of the three major families is really not covered." But, Gangzi, you've done this too quickly, and you haven't thought about it, hey. ”

Cui Gang is nineteen years old, hot-blooded Fang Gang, righteous and affectionate, since following Xiao Yao, he made up his mind to follow Xiao Yao in this life, at first Xiao Yao was a little helpless, and gradually found that he was a man but he was down, recalling his former group member, plus he needed to have his own right-hand man in the future, so he recognized him as a brother. Hearing Xiao Yao's words, Cui Gang turned his head and showed an inquiring look.

"You don't know that the Wang family and the bloody gang, although they use each other, they are also interdependent, and they all regard each other as cash cows, and it is not easy to lose either party. Moreover, there is another point, which I haven't told you before, you won't be naïve to think that the blood demon has really been served by us? Xiao Yao carefully analyzed with Cui Gang one by one, and pointed to him.

"You're saying that the remnants of the Bloodevil Gang haven't been blown up and are all hidden? Even so, what does it have to do with the Wang family? Cui Gang asked suspiciously.

Xiao Yao looked at Cui Gang's expression, and there was a kind of anger that hated iron and steel, but if you think about it, this kid hasn't read any books, and he has been in the circle of martial arts in the martial arts hall since he was a teenager.

"As far as I can guess, what we've destroyed is at most a small gathering point in Qinglong County! From beginning to end, I have never seen the bloody gang leader Ji Zhenshan and Ji Chen's father and son, and in Qinglong County, the one who has the closest contact with them is the Wang family, as long as the father and son are still men, the blood feud of the gang will not be avenged, and they will return to Qinglong County, what do you say they will do? Xiao Yao continued to talk about his guesses, taking Cui Gang bit by bit to analyze the whole thing, focusing on letting him learn to analyze.

Cui Gang turned to the street again, looking at the honor guard that was about to disappear at the gate of the city, suddenly his glasses lit up, snapped, and slapped his hand on the door of his head, "Oh, I'm so stupid, I thought I wanted to deal with the Wang family quickly and get rid of all the internal troubles in Qinglong County, but I never thought that I would ruin your plan, big brother, it's really damned!" As he spoke, he raised his palm and fanned it towards his face.

Xiao Yao instantly reached out and grabbed Cui Gang's wrist and stopped him, "Okay, it's not your fault in this matter, it's just that I didn't tell you about this beforehand, everything must have both sides and positives, and it's not without any benefit for you to do this, in this way, Wang Wei, the eldest son of the Wang family, directly inherited the position of the head of the family, and I already have a certain understanding of this person, so I will keep it for later." ”

Hearing this, Cui just breathed a sigh of relief, and after figuring it out just now, he was worried that he had ruined Xiao Yao's plan because of his recklessness. Through this matter, Cui Gang made up his mind that he would think twice before doing things in the future, act cautiously, and no longer cause unnecessary trouble to his eldest brother.

"Then what should we do with the government? I have ordered someone to hand over the letter to Wu Junyi, he should be able to guess that it was done by Wutang, and we have the evidence of his guilt in our hands, which is enough to convict him. Cui Gang remembered this incident again and hurriedly took this opportunity to ask Xiao Yao for advice.

Xiao Yao's brows were twisted together, he didn't think about the affairs of the government, but it was really tricky, since ancient times, the people did not fight with the officials, although the evidence obtained was enough to make him unsafe, but the crime was not to death, and there was another question, that is, how could these criminal evidence cure his crimes. I can't be sure which officials are credible, if it is handed over to Wu Junyi's faction, not only will Wu Junyi be reassured, but it may lead to fire.

"Wu Junyi's matter will be delayed for the time being, wait for the opportunity to move, the head of a county is not something that can be brought down lightly, and his only son Wu Zhong must not have an accident." In the end, Xiao Yao still couldn't come up with a feasible plan, so he had to put it on hold, after all, there was no conflict of interest between the two sides in the short term.

It is not appropriate for the two of them to stay here for a long time, Xiao Yao told Cui Gang some things, especially explained that Wu Zhong should be transferred to the detention point, and the news must not be leaked, so he left the restaurant alone and walked towards the city. Two days ago, Xiao Yao had found a suitable opportunity to tell Zhao Banshan about the cooperation between Zhao and Qi, and today Zhao and Qi have made an appointment to meet in Piaoxiangju, Xiao Yao is an indispensable and important intermediary.

When he came to the door of Piaoxiangju, Wei Wu was already waiting there in advance. During the period when the Zhao family was down, Wei Wu was one of the few families who resolutely stayed behind to live and die with the Zhao family, and because of this, Wei Wu is now reused in the Zhao Mansion, plus he is clever, and often runs some small things for Zhao Banshan.

Seeing Xiao Yao coming, he hurriedly greeted Xiao Yao, and took Xiao Yao to the upstairs private room, Zhao Banshan and the head of the Qi family had already arrived, and the two sides were also old acquaintances, just waiting for Xiao Yao. When I entered the private room, the table was full of delicacies from the mountains and seas, and no chopsticks were moved.

At the big table that can seat more than a dozen people, there are only three people in Zhao Banshan and the Qi family, father and son, and they are talking happily. After Xiao Yao entered the door, he directly punished himself three cups before being let go by a few people, and then began a more detailed discussion about future cooperation.

In the north of the city, the honor guard of the Wang family's funeral has gone out of the city gate and continues to move forward slowly, and in a dark corner on the city gate tower, a young man in white clothes, with a graceful demeanor, the corners of his clothes swaying in the wind, standing there looking at the honor guard of the funeral, the people behind him breathe evenly and long, standing there quietly just with the white man looking at the honor guard.

"Qinglong County is really getting more and more interesting, hehe." The man in white seemed to be talking to himself, and the person behind him did not respond. "Okay, let's go downstairs, we were just going to stop here and leave, it looks like we're going to have two more days to have fun." As he spoke, he walked down the city tower, walked out of the darkness, and saw clearly, followed by a handsome young man, about sixteen or seventeen years old, his handsome face showed fortitude, and the two quickly disappeared into the sparse crowd and disappeared without a trace.
