The night was dark, but the Tian family was not peaceful, let alone quiet, Tian Buren was lying on the bed, except for the original wife, the four concubines were also crowded in the room, crying and crying, as if Tian Buren had died, and the entire Tian Mansion had fallen into panic and sorrow.

"Master, several doors in the palace are guarded, and we can't get out, why do the people in this yamen do this? The rouge on the concubine's body is almost gone......! ”

"Yes, master, the concubine has to go out to buy clothes for the past two days, and she can't go out now, so how can it be good? The concubine listened to them, the county lord wants to run the Tian family, will it also affect us...... ”

"The concubine heard that the people in the county government have taken away all the grain from our rice store...... If there is no food, how can we live...... ”

The three concubines cried and cried, a handful of snot and a handful of tears, and they really smelled the tears of the sad seekers.

Tian Bu Renhuo opened his eyes, and he didn't know where the strength came from, grabbed the bowl of ginseng soup used to recuperate next to the bed, and smashed it at the few concubines, and heard the sound of "ouch" and shouted, several concubines jumped up like mice, and it was a trivial matter to be splashed with hot ginseng soup, and the forehead of one of the concubines in the middle was hit by the soup bowl, and suddenly smashed into the mouth, and blood came out.

"Get out of here!" Tian Buren shouted angrily.

The concubines suddenly lost their faces, and they hurriedly ran down one by one, but they couldn't even care about their injuries.

Tian Buren repatriated all the people in the room again, then closed his eyes, his face was mixed with anger and helplessness, this Hong family and the government joined forces, the Tian family was rectified this time and suffered heavy losses, and Tian Buren absolutely understood that this matter was far from over, the county government sent people to guard the gate of the Tian family, that is, to prepare for the future to settle accounts, the future of the Tian family, that is already a lot of luck.

He knew very well that behind the Hong family was the county guard Situ Jing, and behind the county guard Situ Jing, that was the He family.

The Tian family is just one of the hundreds of merchants in Xichun County, which is in the eyes of the government, that is the Mao-like family, although he is also attached to the He family, but in the three eastern counties of Yichun County, there are too many attached to the He family, there are not many of them, and there are many of them, and it is impossible for the He family to be embarrassed for the small Tian family and the county guard.

Although he felt sorry for the grain that was worth more gold than gold was taken away by He Zhi County, what he was even more afraid of was the conspiracy of the government and the Hong family to join forces against the Tian family.

He could conclude that it wouldn't be long before they felt that the time was ripe, even if they could survive, the Tian family's property would definitely be stripped of nothing, and everything they had would become their spoils.

The industry that the Tian family has fought for several generations is likely to be lost in his own hands like this, and Tian Buren can't accept it.

But he had no way to confront them, so he could only sit back and wait.

The taste of waiting for death is always uncomfortable.

He lay limply on the bed, anger and helplessness filling his heart, and he was on the verge of despair.

Not only did it take a long time, the night was staggering, and everything was quiet, but Tian Buren suddenly felt a chill in his throat, and this chill instantly spread from his throat to his whole body, and goosebumps all over his body.

When he opened his eyes, he saw a man in black standing by his bedside, masked, holding a long sword in his hand, the room was still lit by a lamp, the blade of the sword was cold, and a pair of sharp and cold eyes of the man in black were staring at him.

"Don't scream, don't move!" The man in black said softly in a hoarse voice, "That will only make you die faster!" ”

Tian Buren tried his best to suppress his horror, and said in a trembling voice: "Good man...... Do heroes want silver? ”

"Someone paid me ......!" The man in black said lightly: "Let me bring you a ......!" ”

Tian Buren asked, "What...... What words? ”

"He asked me to tell you that you are too uninteresting...... Going against him can only lead to a dead end......! After the man in black finished speaking, his eyes suddenly froze, and the hand holding the hilt of the sword suddenly became blue.

Tian Buren was stunned at first, but immediately understood that the person who could bring him such words could only be Hong Wuxiu, it turned out that the man in black was sent by Hong Wuxiu.

He was frightened and resentful, and Hong Wuxiu was too vicious.

The sword of the man in black slowly stabbed forward, as soft as catkins, very slowly, very light, and he said coldly in his mouth: "He also wants me not to kill you with a sword, but to let you die slowly...... Die slowly ......! ”

The blood had already left in Tian Buren's throat, and Tian Buren only felt cold all over his body, and wanted to shout, but at this time he was no longer able to shout.

Just when the long sword was about to pierce Tian Buren's throat, a broken wind dawned, cold light flashed, and something sank into the right shoulder of the man in black holding the sword from the window, the man in black snorted lightly, and as soon as his hand was released, the long sword in his hand fell to the ground.

At the same time, the window was broken, and a figure rushed in through the window, and the person who came was also dressed in black, but his face was wearing a ghost mask, and he held a small dagger in his hand, and entered the house, and the dagger pierced the back of the black-clothed masked man.

The man in black let out a low roar, "Who are you?" ”

The masked man didn't answer at all, the dagger in his hand had been stabbed out continuously, and in the blink of an eye, he forced the man in black to the corner of the house, the man in black had no weapon in his hand, it seemed that he had been hit by a hidden weapon in his left shoulder, and he couldn't hold it up in his left hand, so he was not the masked man's opponent at all.

Tian Buren escaped death, but his body was stiff and wanted to shout, but he didn't make a sound for a while, only to see the two people fighting in the corner for a while, and suddenly heard a soft snort, but the man in black fell in the corner of the house, and the masked man instantly put away the dagger, turned around and walked to the bed, and asked in a low voice: "Can't die, right?" ”

Tian Buren finally relieved himself, and walked away from the ghost gate, only to find that his whole body was already soaked in cold sweat, and his clothes were already wet, and the cold wind came into the window, and he felt even more chilled when he wore it.

"Well...... Thank you, thank you...... Thank you for saving your life! Tian Buren wiped the sweat from his forehead, suddenly thought of something again, took out a silk scarf from the side, and wiped it on his throat, and the silk scarf, which was originally as white as snow, suddenly turned red.

"Know who is going to kill you?" The masked man asked in a cold voice.

"Yes." Tian Buren nodded, a look of resentment.

The masked man pulled over the wooden stool next to him, sat down on it, stared at Tian Buren, and said, "They want to kill you, this is just the beginning, you will encounter a more dangerous situation in the future than now...... You are a little businessman, and in their eyes, it is easy to kill you, do you understand? ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" The sweat that Tian Buren's forehead had just wiped off came out at this time, with doubts in his eyes: "Engong...... Who is Eun Gong? Why save me? ”

The masked man said very directly: "I have a grudge against Situ Jing, and I want to bring down Situ Jing...... You don't have to ask who I am, you just need to understand that if you don't do what I say, your Tian family will definitely be ruined by them...... Do you believe it or not? ”

"I believe it." Tian Buren nodded and said, "What does Engong want me to do?" ”

"Let me ask you first, are you willing to sit back and wait for them to kill your people and take your property, or are you willing to fight?" The masked man asked faintly.

Tian Buren was stunned for a moment, groaning, thinking that the Tian family had been rectified to the way it is now, and he was almost killed by the assassins sent by the Hong family tonight, the resentment in his eyes was even stronger, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Engong, I want to fight, but ...... But how do I go about fighting? I know my strength, it's nowhere near enough to compete with them. ”

The masked man smiled faintly, "Okay, it's good that you have the guts." Tian Buren, now that the Beijing has sent down to supervise the officials, why don't you report this matter to the officials sent by the Beijing Central Officials? ”

Tian Buren's face changed greatly, and he said in surprise: "Sue ...... Sue whom? ”

"Whoever wants to rectify your Tian family, you will sue whomever you want." The mask is humane: "With the support of some corrupt officials, the Hong family forcibly purchased the grain storage of major rice shops, and the Dahong rice store even opened a sky-high price of rice and robbed while it was hot, which violated the laws of the imperial court." In addition, He Zhixian and the Hong family**, came to grab grain, and even sent people to assassinate them, why didn't you sue for this incident? Now that Lord Su Keyongsu is in the city, he has come to investigate those corrupt officials in Yichun County, if you don't seize such an opportunity, then your Tian family will not have a second chance like this! ”

Tian Buren hesitated.

This is already a very difficult thing for the people to sue the officials, not to mention that in the ** form of the Yan State, the probability of success is almost zero if the officials of the He family's faction are sued in the He family's territory.

What's more, Master Su sent by the Ministry of Officials can really go to investigate the officials of the He family thoroughly for the sake of a small rice merchant.

Many well-informed people in Yichun County know that Jingli has sent many officials down, and they also know that some of them are here to thoroughly investigate corrupt officials and corrupt officials, but no one is sure whether it is just for show or for real.

This kind of thinking is extremely deep in the hearts of the people, and of course they will not understand the turbulent struggle between the families.

"What are you afraid of?" The masked man has a deep voice.

Tian Buren finally said, "I'...... Can I sue to win? Sue them here, I ...... Am I not looking for death? ”

"They're already going to kill you." The masked man's voice was cold: "What else are you afraid of? If you don't sue, you're waiting for death, if you do, maybe there's a way to live! ”

Tian Buren was still hesitating, and the masked man had already continued: "With you alone, naturally you can't win." But with me behind to help you, you have a 70% chance of ......! ”

Tian Buren hesitated and struggled in his heart, what the mask man said was right, sit still and wait to die, it was naturally better to fight to the death, but even with the mask man's promise, he still didn't believe that he could sue the Hong family, Hezhi County, and even the county guard Situ Jing, that was really an unattainable goal.

"If you want to sue, I'll help you, if you don't sue, I'll leave now!" The masked man stood up and said lightly: "As the saying goes, put it to death and then live, it seems that it ...... You're not that enlightened! ”

Tian Buren got down from the bed and knelt on the ground, "Engong, if you can enter my family's mansion under the protection of the yacha, you must be skillful." I beg you for one thing, if you can agree, Tian Buren will fight for his life, and he will also beat the drum and shout grievances, and follow the instructions of Engong to sue those beasts! ”

"What?"

"Eun Gong helped me take my two sons and a daughter...... And my lady! Tian Buren's eyes were full of begging: "Take them far away from here, I'll stay and fight!" ”

The masked man only groaned for a moment, then nodded, "Good! ”

Tian Buren was overjoyed, kowtowed, and said, "Thank you so much, thank you so much!" ”

"I'll arrange for them to leave as soon as possible." The masked man said calmly, "You are ready to file a complaint...... Remember, this is your own decision, and no one is asking you to do it...... You've never seen me ......! ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Tian Buren said: "Engong saved my life, and also pointed to the way of revenge, I, Tian Buren, am grateful, and will never betray Engong." ”

"I'm not afraid of you betraying me, it won't do you any good." The masked man sneered: "I can save your family out, and naturally I can kill them......!" He didn't say any more, he picked up the motionless man in black on his back, rushed out of the window again, and disappeared into the night, Tian Buren watched him leave and sat down on the ground.

The masked man carried the man in black out of the house, and when he reached a place where there was no one, he put down the man in black, and the man in black actually stood upright, and made a gesture with the masked man.

"Xiao Li, secretly protect Tian Buren, don't let people really kill him." The masked man commanded: "Tell the brothers not to make any rash moves for the time being, the spies of the enemy country, leave it to the gang in the East Flower Hall to deal with for the time being, we don't interfere!" However, Tian Buren's family arranged for them to leave as soon as possible...... At this time, the eyes of those big people are not in this small Tianfu! ”

"Yes, sir." The man in black said respectfully.

Soon, the two figures separated left and right, and in the blink of an eye, they were hidden in the night, like two disembodied ghosts.

……

At this time, in the chess room of the Spring Garden, He Xuezhi was playing against Mr. Xu quite elegantly, and their eyes, at this time, did not focus on the small Tianfu that they had never noticed and did not notice, and of course they could not know that an extremely strange thing was born there.

Half an hour ago, the report they received was clear.

"Han Mo has no change today, he has stayed overnight!"

p Fantasy cultivation is two or three chapters at a time, and fighting once for three or five chapters is not a drag! There are many books on history, and a war takes more than ten or twenty copies, not counting delays! The small desert writes about the struggle for power, and writing some relevant details in a few chapters is dragging, I'm really wronged. If these are useless, I won't write it, it's really useful to code it down, I also want to ** immediately, but the whole atmosphere and details are not handled well, and it is so fierce that it is really irresponsible.

If I don't understand the 'cause', I won't understand the 'effect' when it comes out.

Human fighting, that is motive to drive action, I must explain the motive. If you often watch power struggles, this kind of book itself is a fine thread, which is definitely different from the fantasy fight in the dark, which is just a typical example of static movement.

The wine spirit has the stimulation of the wine spirit, and the tea fragrance also has the charm of the tea fragrance.

The slave family just wants to make a good cup of tea and dedicate it to everyone!
