Chapter Forty-Eight—The End of the Family
Lu Ming's words had just come out, and a faint laugh had already come out of the carriage in front of him: "What Brother Lu is saying is that Xiao'er and Ling Ai have lived happily in the past two days, which is a relief in the eyes of our older generation, in this case, now the relationship between our two families is one step further." Now we can work together, presumably, the success rate of our plan may be even higher, you say yes? It's a pity that today should be the time to return to the door, but the little girl got into a slight illness, and now Yu'er is accompanying her, and she didn't come here today, but this also allows us to better discuss things."
The words were slightly calm, and there was not the slightest ripple in the tone. Lu Ming, Ye Hao and Zhang He all knew each other very well, this was their old friend, and it was also the attitude and tone of their old rival Lin Feng. This is not a problem, since Lin Feng seems to have a good attitude now, the possibility of their cooperation may be higher. In this way, such a bloody brute force purge against the royal family of Qi State may be more certain. In every sense of the word, this is a good thing. As for the fact that his son and daughter-in-law did not return to her husband's house this time, Lu Ming felt that it was a trivial matter now.
The carriage came to a slow stop, and as soon as the carriage door opened, a coachman in civilian clothes next to the carriage immediately bowed down and smiled, opened the carriage door gently, and at the same time took out a small wooden bench from the back of the carriage and placed it in front of the carriage. Immediately, a middle-aged man wearing a black official robe came out of the carriage. Compared with Lu Ming, Ye Hao and Zhang He, the three family heads who now look no more than forty-five years old, but are actually almost half a hundred years old, the Lin family head who came here in front of him looks much older. On Lin Feng's face, the expression was still very serious and even dignified, and in front of the three treacherous and cunning family heads in front of him, Lin Feng still showed a deep smile.
"Brother Lin, since you have already come here, why don't you go into the mansion and drink a glass of water and wine, and let's talk about the current situation slowly?" Lu Ming stepped forward, walked up like an old friend who looked very stable, and said to Lin Feng in front of him with a smile.
Lin Feng waved his hand lightly, and gently turned his gaze back behind him, and the team he brought with him was composed of more than 100 people and more than 100 war horses. explained with a smile: "Not busy, not busy, by the way, Brother Lu Ming, Brother Yehao, Brother Zhang He." I've brought you a gift you want today, I wonder if you'd be interested in checking it out?"
After saying this, Lin Feng didn't wait for the three family masters in front of him to agree, he had already turned around and beckoned to the few family masters waiting there behind him, "You guys, go and bring that gift over and show it to the three family masters in front of you, let's judge the crown together" The three family members closest to Lin Feng nodded, and hurried towards the carriage behind.
During this short waiting time, Lin Feng inadvertently flashed a sharp light in his eyes, Lu Ming, Ye Hao and Zhang He in front of them were so cunning and cunning, they had already seen through this bit of abnormal light flashing in Lin Feng's eyes at a glance. The three of them couldn't help but feel a deep vigilance in their hearts, but none of them said anything. Waiting quietly, after all, behind them, there are now three families, and there are nearly more than 100 people in these three families. Even if Lin Feng was a little abnormal now, he didn't dare to act rashly.
After a while, Lin Feng's subordinates were three family members, and they had already walked quickly to Lin Feng's side with a golden chic locket. Now, the people around the county have basically been temporarily sent back to their homes by the families of these four family heads. The street was not wide, and the four heads of the family formed a formation on the street, spreading out a formation of nearly 200 families on the street. Now, almost everyone's eyes had already been projected onto the gorgeous wooden box that Lin Feng had received from his own family, which was plated with golden brilliance. As Lin Feng's palm slowly unfolded the gorgeous wooden box in front of him, Lin Feng's originally slightly calm voice suddenly became sharp, and he lowered his voice and said to the three family masters in front of him: "Please three family masters, kneel down and listen to the order!"
"What" Even though he had roughly reflected the situation, the words that Lin Feng said now still made Lu Ming, Ye Hao and Zhang He in front of him all glance at each other, and looked at Lin Feng in front of him a little at a loss, from the wooden box in his hand, with a more pious look, a flickering golden light in the wooden box was projected into the sunlight. Lin Feng gently opened the golden holy decree in his hand slowly, and said in a deep voice to Lu Ming, Ye Hao, and Zhang He in front of him: "Three adults, let's listen to the will of the prime minister."
Lu Ming, Ye Hao, and Zhang He had now fully understood why this Lin Feng in front of them could come here with the Holy Decree in hand. Presumably, Lin Feng has been bought by the imperial court and has become the backbone of the rebellion against the three major families, right?
"Lin Feng, what good is it for yourself if you do this?" Lu Ming was shocked by Lin Feng's tone and movements in front of him, and his body couldn't help but fall backwards. Fortunately, several family members standing not far behind them hurriedly stepped forward and supported their family master from behind. However, even if his body was temporarily supported now, Lu Ming's expression looked very unbelievable. His voice sounded a little overwhelming. Ye Hao and Zhang He, who were beside him, looked at Lin Feng with a serious expression of achievement on their faces with angry faces, and they all understood what the situation was now. Presumably, Lin Feng has become the vanguard of the attack on the family under the co-optation of Li Dan, the prime minister of the Qi State. In this way, the Lin family may be able to keep it, even if it is impossible to keep it all, then at least it will be much better than the three of them. Then, in the future Qi country, it is very likely that only the Lin family will be left. Thinking of this, Ye Hao and Zhang He couldn't help but show deep annoyance, and they yelled at Lin Feng: "Since you have come here, why did you only bring less than a hundred people?
Lin Feng smiled, wrapped his robe, and once again showed an elusive smile on his slightly old face. He gently glanced at Lu Ming, who was now faint and wanted to fall in front of him, and the two Ye Hao and Zhang He beside him with angry faces. Lin Feng had a smile like a victor on his face, he gently unfolded the holy decree given to him by Li Dan in his hand, and said to the three family masters in front of him with a smile: "Maybe the family led by a certain person now is not enough to fight against you, but what if I bring an army loyal to the royal family?" "Don't you really want to live, don't you know that our family has been like this for nearly three hundred years, is it really possible to survive?" When Lu Ming heard this, he suddenly didn't know as if he had borrowed a burst of strength from somewhere, and broke free from the support of the two family members behind him. Raising his right hand, he pointed at Lin Feng in front of him with an expression and movement of disbelief and deep sadness.
Lin Feng smiled deeply again, he said with a smile: "You still don't understand what I mean, I don't plan to save the family, Prime Minister Li Dan and His Majesty Xuan Lejun, these plans for nearly thirty years can't be saved, but at least, I can get the benefits I want from your strategic failure, what Prime Minister Li Dan wants, I have already given him that, then, he has no reason to deal with me for the time being." Speaking of this, Li Feng slowly turned around, smiled softly at the other carriage behind him, and said, "General Zhang, my side is over, you can order the soldiers to enter the clearance" Lu Ming, Ye Hao and Zhang He didn't realize who General Zhang was for the time being, but when the carriage behind them opened, and out of it came a figure wearing a dark golden uniform, a red robe behind him, and a white armor on his head, the three family heads in front of him, Lu Ming, Zhang He, and Ye Hao, who had already been shocked and couldn't react, turned pale now, and completely lost the slightest vitality. Unexpectedly, they had already come to such a step, an irreversible step. Lin Feng looked at the three family masters in front of him with an indifferent expression, watching as the general raised his hand and sent a signal into the sky, and in an instant, a heavily armed army wearing purple armor poured in from outside this county town. This army is about more than 3,000 people, and it is the most elite Purple Gold Praetorian Guard in the Qi State. As soon as this army appeared, the cousins of the three heads of the family in front of them had already become deeply desperate. The three of them hadn't understood it until now, but Lin Feng, who was standing on the side, had already figured it out. The reason why the royal family of Qi wants to exploit the family now, the first is that the family is no longer the strength that the country must rely on, but what they have done has already exceeded the tolerance of the royal family of Qi. In addition, the population of the country is now as large as it was during the war, and the population is nearly twice as large as it was when the country was founded more than 300 years ago. In this way, where should these ordinary people get their fields? Naturally, it is these families who forcibly buy land at low prices and occupy certain production industries in Qi State. Naturally, if you want the stability of the country and defeat the feudal country, you must gain the support of the people. Lin Feng himself hadn't figured out these three family masters who were originally more shrewd than himself until now. I can't figure out the joints in this, this is really, stupid.
Zhang He dragged his steps, silently took two steps forward, and looked intently at the heroic young general who slowly walked down from the carriage in front of him. He couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and said to the general in front of him with an extremely sad expression: "Ling Yi, I actually didn't want to make you sad, but your behavior like this is still a little" The object of Zhang He's speech was none other than the current governor of the southern part of the Qi State, a member of the Zhang family, and Zhang He's younger brother. However, since he was a child, he was not loved by the clansmen, and his concubine - Zhang Lingyi.
