It's a pity that he didn't calculate that Xiao Qiongzhi's father, Xiao Zhengzhen, would secretly instruct Xiao Zhennan, the third cousin of the Xiao Zhen family, to kill Wei Feng and all his cronies when he secretly went to Chu with Wei Feng to fish for Tai, forcing him to abdicate and make way for Xian. Mobile

In the eight years since Xiao Xuanliang succeeded to the throne, he has been thinking about how to turn the tables around.

However, although Xiao Xuanliang is very filial, it is just a filial piety to ensure his safety, health and wealth, as for the imperial power that he can't let go of at all, it is not for him to touch the phone at all.

However, Xiao Zhen's family and Xiao Zhengzhen are very valued by Xiao Xuanliang, especially Xiao Zhengzhen, who not only almost took over the main imperial power, but also sent powerful secret guards to protect Xiao Xuanliang and Xiao Zhen's family.

He was very anxious in his heart, after returning from the Chu State, he accepted the reality on the surface, and no longer instructed people like Wei Feng and others to make waves.

In fact, he has been contacting his old subordinates to cultivate new forces, especially the forces of the Zhu family, and at the same time, he has also relied on a few chess pieces that have long been placed around Xiao Xuanliang to understand all the movements of Xiao Xuanliang and Xiao Zhen's family, and to act with a machine.

For example, Xiao Xuanliang and Xiao Zhen's family, in the Shi Shi Nao behind Dugu Peak, found gemstones, in fact, Xiao Han already knew.

Wan Yan Hao was able to find that there were gems in the stone pool, which was the clue he provided.

And Xiao Xuanliang took Mr. Zheng to the Bugu Courtyard today to prepare to come to Dugu Peak to hunt in the afternoon, and Xiao Han also knew about it as early as this morning.

It was he who instructed Wan Yan Hao, and at noon today, with more than 30 masters prepared by the Zhu family and the Cui family, and 20 masters secretly cultivated by himself, as well as more than a dozen secret guards from Wan Yan Hao, they were ambushed near the peak of Dugu Peak and by this stone pool, waiting for Xiao Xuanliang to come from the net.

As for Cui Zhengdong, the Cui family where he is located and the Zhu family where Zhu Qianniang is located are in-laws.

Cui Zhengdong's uncle, Cui Ziqiang, is the patriarch of the Cui family.

Cui Ziqiang's wife, Zhu Zhenhui, is Zhu Qianniang's niece.

Zhu Zhenhui's cousin Zhu Fangfei is Xiao Jiqing's wife.

More than 30 years ago, Cui Ziqiang was too punctual in Yuyang, and the corruption and bribery were serious, and Cui Ziqiang's two sons repeatedly robbed the people's daughters in the local area, which seriously aroused the anger of the local people, leading to a riot of tens of thousands of people.

At that time, this matter was found out by Xiao Xuanliang, who was in charge of investigating the chaos.

Xiao Xuanliang reported to the imperial court, insisted on following the law, and exterminated the entire Cui family.

Fortunately, Zhu Zhenhui asked Xiao Jiqing for help through Zhu Fangfei, Xiao Jiqing secretly asked Xiao Han to intercede, and Xiao Han tried to pull Cui Ziqiang's master and the Cui family's housekeeper out as substitutes for the dead ghosts, so that the Cui family was spared.

Cui Ziqiang has been grateful to Xiao Han and Xiao Jiqing since then, and tried to lead the entire Cui family to become Xiao Jiqing and Xiao Han's loyal dogs.

However, Cui Zhengdong's father, Cui Zixin, although Cui Ziqiang is a sibling.

He thinks differently.

He has always been unaccustomed to Cui Ziqiang's greed, and his two sons' arrogance, arrogance, and viciousness.

Although Xiao Xuanliang wanted to punish their entire Cui family according to the law, which was very ruthless, but their Cui family usually had no intersection with Xiao Xuanliang, and they didn't even have a face-to-face relationship, so Xiao Xuanliang was understandable for doing this.

And Xiao Jiqing is a person with average ability, a great temper, and a righteous side, but there are still some eyes that must be repaid.

As a result, he has no popularity, even if Xiao Han and Xiao Xuanxiong have helped him run a business, there are still not many people around him who can use it.

For example, in this assassination of Xiao Zhen's family, he could only rely on the Zhu family, the Cui family, Xiao Han's secret guards and Xiao Han's secret guards of Wan Yanhao.

Therefore, this time, Cui Zhengdong and his two younger brothers, Cui Zhengyan and Cui Zhengxing, who were standing behind him, were ordered by Cui Ziqiang to participate in the assassination of Xiao Zhenjia, and they had been secretly following Cui Zixin's orders, only coaxing and parrying, and never really hurt anyone.

"Little master, I can testify to this, I have been inseparable from Cui Zhengdong, and he has many opportunities to hurt me, but he let me go." Zhou Duoqin, who was beside Xiao Qiongzhi, heard this and reminded Xiao Qiongzhi.

"I can also testify that I have been inseparable from Cui Zhengyan, and he has had many opportunities to hurt me, and he has let me go." Zhou Duoniu, who was behind Xiao Qiongzhi, heard this and immediately echoed.

"Little master, I have been fighting with Cui Zhengxing for a long time, and he also has the intention of letting me." Next to Nameless, a man dressed exactly the same as Nameless continued.

This person should also be the secret guard of Xiao Zhen's family.

Xiao Qiongzhi nodded at the three of them, and then turned to Xiao Jinjia and said, "Brother, this matter is too involved, and it is inconvenient for us, as juniors, to come forward to deal with it." ”

"It's better for me to take Hongxing and keep an eye on these living mouths here, so as not to kill Yan Hao suddenly and rob them, and you, responsible for bringing grandpa and the others over, let grandpa decide what to do next."

"Okay, I'll go right away." Xiao Jinjia hurriedly did so.

About seven or eight minutes later, Xiao Zhenjia, Mr. Zheng, Prince Zhao, Prince Yi, and Prince Kun followed Xiao Jinjia and came to the edge of the stone pool.

As soon as Xiao Zhenjia saw Xiao Qiongzhi, he said loudly: "Zhi'er, Jia'er has already told us the ins and outs of this incident. I plan to stay and interrogate and interrogate the other Assassins except for the Choi family. ”

"Now you and Jin Jia will take my brother Zheng, the three brothers Cui Zhengdong, and the princes of various countries, and the friends you have made in the Chu country, and go back to the Bugu Courtyard to wait for me."

"Okay, grandpa." Xiao Qiongzhi nodded and did it immediately.

Xiao Jinjia was a little puzzled, and after following Xiao Qiongzhi out of a few steps, he whispered to Xiao Qiongzhi: "Zhi'er, Cui Zhengdong has already made things very clear, but grandpa still said that he would interrogate and interrogate other assassins again, isn't it redundant?" Look, what kind of medicine is he selling in his gourd? ”

Xiao Qiongzhi pondered for a moment and said, "Grandpa should want to find out Wan Yan Hao's secret guard from those assassins, follow the vine to touch the melon, and catch Wan Yan Hao." ”

"In addition, Grandpa has a lot of experience, wisdom and wisdom, and he is far more experienced in interrogating prisoners than we do, and he may be able to find many other problems from other assassins."

"That's right. However, in the final analysis, this matter is a family matter of our family, and it will definitely not be convenient to let Mr. Zheng, Prince Xuan, Prince Zhao, and the friends you have made in the Chu State stay there and learn about the whole process of Grandpa's interrogation of the assassins. ”

"I guess this is the reason why Grandpa asked me to take you and everyone back to the Orphan Courtyard first." Xiao Jinjia said with a regretful face.

Obviously, he was curious about the process of Xiao Zhen's family interrogation of the assassins.

Xiao Qiongzhi was actually a little curious.

She proposed to Xiao Jinjia: "Brother, why don't you take everyone back to the Bugu Courtyard first, and I will take Hongxing and quietly return to Shitan to help you see how Grandpa interrogated the assassin!" ”
