Chapter 543: The Ambition in the Wu Clan's Heart
Night slowly fell, and the carriages outside the Taishou Mansion gathered, and a person in charge of a famous family got out of the car and walked inside almost at the same time. After three days of tandem and communication, the breath of panic was like a seed, quietly taking root in my heart. Aren't the wealthy clans in the land of Jingxiang Eight Counties strong enough? But after Liu Biao became the ruler of Jingzhou, except for a few powerful wealthy families. Those heroes were all beheaded and reorganized, so Liu Jingzhou's status was cast.
It seems that it has nothing to do with the wealthy family, but if you dig deeper into this matter, you can find that after killing the marshal, it is not only the soldiers of the water bandits and bandits that are collected, most of them are private soldiers from the wealthy family.
In other words, Jia Taishou is very likely to do such a thing.
Thinking of this, all the people of the big and small wealthy families gasped, and they all looked around, thinking of feasible countermeasures, but in the end, they let out a light sigh. Stronger than others, you can only take one step at a time, I hope that Jia Taishou is not a ruthless person, after all, he is also from a family.
"Wu Gong"
"Zhang Gong"
"Zhu Gong"
The voice sounded in their ears, and everyone looked at Wu Kai, Zhang Da and Zhu Jun who came from the three carriages.
The three of them bowed their hands to everyone, and almost all of them turned around at this moment, and anxious looks appeared on them.
"You're so early"
"Let's all go in, it's not a way to be a guest to keep the host's house waiting"
Zhang Da said to everyone, but his footsteps did not move a step.
Everyone was the same, looking at the three of them one by one, the anxious look on their faces became a little thicker.
"Now it is rumored in the city that Jia Taishou wants to emulate Liu Jingzhou, where should we go from the Jiangnan family? Wu Gong, Zhang Gong, and Zhu Gong are all highly respected people, please show me the way."
"Please show the way to the public"
The crowd shouted in unison.
The soldiers guarding in front of the mansion looked sideways, it seemed that these people were really in a hurry, otherwise they would not openly inquire in front of the mansion.
The three of them glanced at each other and looked meaningfully in the direction of Taishou Mansion.
"Everyone, be careful......"
"I've become meat on the board, how can I still be cautious"
One person said to Wu Kai, Zhang Da and Zhu Jun, and he had a great posture of going out. In this troubled world, only private soldiers can make people feel at ease, and if they lose their private soldiers, it is equivalent to losing everything.
Everyone showed a look of expectation, if the top wealthy families like Zhang and Zhu in the south of the Yangtze River could ignore or even resist the impact of seizing private soldiers, but compared to those smaller wealthy families, it was no less than a catastrophe.
The hearts of the people in the city were already panicked, and the Taishou Mansion not only did not come forward to clarify, but adopted a tacit attitude, and for a while, there was a feeling of impending a storm in the sky south of the Yangtze River.
"How did Taishou say that this banquet is the banquet of Liu Jingzhou?"
"Not explicitly, but tacitly"
The man said loudly.
Everyone thought of the inaction of the Taishou Mansion in the past three days, so they nodded one after another.
A smile appeared at the corner of Wu Kai's mouth, but when the corner of his eye fell on those soldiers, he immediately retracted. After all, this is the place where Jia Taishou guards, so it's better to pay attention to one or two.
"Is not knowing what to say a tacit acquiescence? Are you overthinking? ”
"This?"
Everyone looked at each other with hesitant expressions.
Aren't these three the three happiest to dance in private? Why do they push back when they want to join? Or is it that the message heard was wrong.
"Jiangnan is not Jingzhou, and Jia Taishou is not Liu Jingsheng"
"Do you think so?"
Wu Kai said to everyone.
The crowd reacted almost instantly.
How did Liu Jingzhou capture the soldiers of the Hao Shuai and the wealthy family? First of all, he received the hearts of the top families in the eight counties of Jingxiang, and then implemented this plan. But looking at Jiangnan, Zhang, Zhu and other wealthy families did not reach a consensus, and forcibly imitated Liu Jingzhou's plan, and the final result was only afraid that it would be a chaos that swept the three counties. Judging from the dangerous situation in the world at this time, the land south of the Yangtze River will inevitably change masters.
"Please rest assured, if Taishou really ignores the feelings of the same wealthy family, we will definitely not stand idly by"
"All the justices are righteous, we are willing to be their wings"
The crowd replied loudly.
said loudly without scruples in front of this Taishou Mansion, quite a bit of a posture of confrontation. If you don't take away the private soldiers, then you will tear your face and resist to the end.
"A good Zhang Gong and Zhu Gong who understand righteousness"
"Do you guys stop and think that this Taishou Mansion is the tiger's den?"
Several carriages galloped in, and familiar voices sounded in the ears of Wu Kai and the others.
The three of them hurriedly looked over, and when they saw the person coming from the car, they couldn't help but let out a sneer. Unexpectedly, it was the Gu and Lu clans and their allies. Due to Sun Ce's attack on Lujiang County, the Wu, Zhang, and Zhu clans had already developed a grudge against the Lu and Gu clans. If it weren't for Jia Taishou's sudden rise to strength, these two clans would only be overwhelmed by them for a long time.
"Gu Gong"
"Lu Gong"
The people standing beside Wu Kai and the others shouted.
Although they have decided to take refuge in them, the Lu family and the Gu family have deep roots, and they naturally dare not forget the etiquette they should have.
"The hour is coming, what are you still standing here?"
"Let's all go in"
Lu En said to everyone.
But everyone didn't take a step, but looked at Zhang Da and the others one after another.
Gu Kun, who was standing on the side, knew that they didn't want to be with their own group.
"Brother Zhang and Brother Zhu don't want to go in? If so, why did you come to Jianye? Wouldn't it be better to stay in Kure?"
"Then why didn't Brother Gu go in?"
"Naturally, I want to go in, I just want to make concessions with the two of you, or maybe Brother Lu, you and I will go in first."
"Yes"
Lu En nodded.
The two of them climbed the stairs and walked inside with more than a dozen people behind them, without looking at Wu Kai from beginning to end.
The feeling of humiliation appeared in his heart, and Wu Kai's face couldn't help but turn blue. My Wu clan is also a big family, and Sun Ce, the lord of the Sun clan, is my nephew, don't you have the qualifications to treat each other equally? Anyway, who this land south of the Yangtze River ultimately belongs to is not yet known. When Yuan Yuzhou enters the south of the Yangtze River, it will be the time when your Lu and Gu clans are defeated.
The contempt of today will be rewarded tenfold and hundredfold in the coming day.
"Ladies and gentlemen, how about I go in too? Let's see what the Taishou summoned us for? ”
"No"
The crowd replied loudly.
Wu Xingxing couldn't help but be shocked, now almost half of the Jiangnan family supports him, as long as he concentrates on business, he can't make a contribution to Yuan Yuzhou. At that time, Yuan Yuzhou defeated Jia Taishou, so the Wu family would become the top wealthy family in the south of the Yangtze River.
Thinking of this, I felt a little more steady, and then a wave of pride spread, and I strode up the stairs. Behind him, everyone rushed in and walked inside.
