Chapter 83 (1st Update)
The four princes of Nanchu are naturally not in vain, Cheng Zixiao lost to Su Zi in chess skills, and he was convinced.
He looked at Su Zi's calm appearance, and couldn't help asking, "You're not worried at all?" What if something happens tonight? ”
Su Zi cut the clouds lightly, "What are you afraid of if there are variables?" ”
Cheng Zi choked with laughter, thinking about it, what are you afraid of if there are variables? Whether it is Taizu's secret guard, or Su Zi's thirteen-star soul, or the dark line buried by the Hua family in the north, even if it can't be completely stopped tonight, it will not suffer.
He asked Su Zi, "Should I quietly go back to Cheng's house tonight?" Bring those things? If it succeeds tonight, those things will be ready for use in no time. ”
Su Zi shook his head, "Don't worry, it's better to wait for two days, you are going back to your home in the open." ”
Cheng Zi smiled and thought about going back brightly, and couldn't help but be happy.
Two hours later, Yun Dian sent back the news that the Cheng family's Feng Lingwei had all been hanged.
Su Zi smiled, "Sure enough, Taizu Secret Guard is very powerful. ”
As soon as he finished speaking, An Sixteen sent back the news that the Su family's flame guard had been destroyed.
Su Zi slashed and laughed, "It's almost synchronous with Taizu's secret guard, no wonder An Sixteen is the most important to her." ”
As his words fell, the green soul sent back the news that the trace guards of the Huaiwang Mansion had been eliminated.
Su Zi smiled lightly, "Fortunately, the Green Soul and the Thirteen-Star Soul didn't lose my people." ”
Cheng Zixiao glanced at the five princes, the most powerful secret guards of the three major families had been removed, and the rest would be easier.
Then, there were secret reports of the dark line of the Hua family one after another, all of which were good news.
This night, no one would have thought that in a mountain and forest farm twenty miles outside Bei'an City, Su Zishu sat in town, Cheng Zixiao and the five princes were accompanied, and Hua Yan slept for a good night, but the sky in Bei'an City was easily disturbed by them.
Late that night, Cheng Xiang, the head of the Cheng family, received the news that Feng Lingwei was hanged, jumped up from the bed in shock, and asked in disbelief, "What did you say?" Who was Feng Lingwei strangled? ”
The person who reported the news was covered in blood, with several knives in his body, and came back with a breath to report the news, "I don't know who it is, it's very powerful, very familiar with Feng Lingwei, Feng Lingwei is not an opponent, and they were all hanged." ”
He finished this sentence with difficulty, and took his last breath, and breathed a sigh of relief.
Cheng Xiang's face turned white all of a sudden, looked at the Feng Lingwei who fell to the ground, and shouted in a trembling voice, "Come on, come on!" ”
Someone heard the movement and immediately rushed into the inner room.
Cheng Xiang pointed to the people on the ground, "Quick, go find the doctor!" ”
Someone was shocked when he saw the man covered in blood on the ground, and quickly turned around and ran to find the doctor.
The Cheng family's household doctor was soon brought in, trembling his hands to probe the snort of this Feng Lingwei, and then gave him a pulse, and said to Cheng Yao, who had a white face, in a trembling voice, "Old master, this person is already angry. ”
is out of breath, that is, the person is already dead, and Da Luo Jinxian can't be saved when he comes.
Cheng Xiang sat on the chair with his ass, shaking all over, terrified, his Feng Lingwei was the most elite secret guard of the Cheng family, which had been inherited for two or three hundred years, he really couldn't imagine that someone more powerful would strangle all the Feng Lingwei tonight.
The corners of his mouth twitched for a long time, and he spoke in a hoarse voice, "Someone, go and call Cheng Yao." ”
Someone should have been, and immediately went.
Not long after, Cheng Yao came in a hurry, because he was in a hurry, the robe on his body was draped casually, he walked in the door, and at a glance saw the secret guard lying on the ground covered in blood, and said in horror, "Father, what happened?" ”
Cheng Xiang's face was very pale, "Feng Lingwei has all been hanged. ”
"What?" Cheng Yao's face suddenly changed greatly, and he trembled all over, "Who did it?" Who can strangle all the Wind Guards? ”
Cheng Xiang shook his head, "I don't know who it is, it's very powerful, this Feng Lingwei came back to report to me with a breath, and as soon as he said this, he was angry." ”
Cheng Yao couldn't believe it, "Feng Lingwei is so powerful, how can this be...... Eradicated? ”
Cheng Xiang closed his eyes, and suddenly seemed to be ten years old, "I really didn't expect that Feng Lingwei would be eliminated overnight, and I don't even know who did it." When the words fell, he thought of something and immediately said, "It's the Hua family!" ”
Cheng Yao's face turned pale, "Father, doesn't the Hua family have no dark line in the Northland?" Our people searched for three days, but they didn't find anything. ”
Cheng Xiang said dejectedly, "It is precisely because I didn't find anything that I said that the Hua family is deeply hidden, it must be the Hua family, and recently I only sent Feng Lingwei to do this one thing." ”
Cheng Yao's face turned cold, "Our family has lost the Wind Spirit Guard, I don't know what about other families, the top ten families in the north have a joint attack, even if the Hua family has a dark line in the north, it is rare to be able to really move the elite secret guards of the top ten families at once?" ”
Cheng Xiang immediately said when he heard this, "You hurry up and inquire and see how other houses are?" ”
Cheng Yao nodded and went immediately.
After Cheng Yao left, Cheng Xiang coughed, he forced himself to calm down, but he couldn't calm down, after a while, he ordered someone, "Go and call Brother Gu." ”
Someone should have been, and immediately went.
Not long after, Cheng Guzhi hurriedly came to Cheng Xiang's courtyard, and when he entered the hall, he saw the dark guard lying on the ground covered in blood, and his face changed, "Grandpa, this ......" He just wanted to ask something, but when he saw Cheng Xiang's old and decadent look, he suddenly stopped again.
Cheng Xiang patted the armrest of the chair and said to Cheng Guzhi, "Brother Gu, the Feng Lingwei in Grandpa's hands was strangled tonight. ”
Cheng Guzhi was shocked.
Cheng Xiang looked at him and said, "I don't know who it is, I suspect that it was the Hua family's hand." In the past few days, the only thing I have done with Feng Lingwei is to check the dark line of the Hua family. ”
Cheng Guzhi was also very shocked, he knew how powerful Feng Lingwei was, if it was Hua Yan's hand, he didn't expect to strangle Feng Lingwei so quickly, how powerful this was. No wonder she said that it was a matter of time before the Northland purgeed the Cheng family, whether he helped or not.
He looked at Cheng Xiang and was speechless for a while.
Cheng Xiang clearly saw the look of horror in his eyes, and sighed deeply, "Brother Gu, I'm afraid the Cheng family is going to lose." ”
Cheng Guzhi pursed his lips and shouted hoarsely, "Grandpa." ”
Cheng Xiang closed his eyes and said oldly, "I didn't expect Feng Lingwei to be defeated in my hands, and overnight, it would be gone." Without the Cheng family of Feng Lingwei, it is equivalent to having no protective wall and being slaughtered. Our Cheng family can be regarded as defeated in my hands, and my grandfather went to Jiuquan without a word to see the ancestors of the Cheng family. ”
Cheng Gu was speechless in pain, and after a long time, he said, "Grandpa, without Feng Lingwei, our Cheng family ......"
Cheng Xiang took his words, "You are a descendant of the Cheng family, for so many years, although you have not participated in the affairs of the Cheng family, you should also understand that what our Cheng family has done behind the scenes has already violated the laws of Southern Chu, and once it is liquidated, it will be a great crime to punish the nine clans." There is Feng Lingwei, we can still cover this day, and fight against it, I originally thought, who killed the deer, especially unknown, but now Feng Lingwei has been removed overnight, it is conceivable that we can't fight, and the Cheng family can't cover it this day. ”
Cheng Guzhi looked at Cheng Xiang, and finally spit out the words in his heart that he had always wanted to ask, "Grandson doesn't understand, grandpa knows that what the Cheng family has been doing is a big crime of the Nine Clans, why does he know the law and break the law?" ”
Cheng Xiang said dismally, "In the past, the Cheng family has indeed been keeping their duty and being a clear stream in the north, otherwise the current queen mother, that is, your aunt and grandmother, would not have been selected to enter the palace and become the queen of Southern Chu." But not long after she entered the palace, decades ago, the Black Dragon River burst its embankment, if you don't hide it, more than half of the children of our Cheng family will be convicted, and your aunt and grandmother will also be implicated. Therefore, the elders of the Cheng family tried their best to hide this matter. Otherwise, the Cheng family would have collapsed decades ago, and there would not have been the scenery of these decades. Therefore, decades ago, the Cheng family was filthy. Knowing the law and breaking the law is also a last resort. ”
Cheng Guzhi said, "Decades ago, the Heilong River burst its embankment, and the Cheng family couldn't hide it, so did they contact many families in the north to help the Cheng family hide it at that time?" And there must be someone to help the DPRK and China? ”
Cheng Xiang nodded, "Yes, the Cheng family can't hide this matter, naturally there are people in the north and in the middle of the court to help." ”
Cheng Guzhi didn't want to ask Beidi, he just wanted to ask Chaozhong, and he immediately asked, "Grandpa, who are the people in Chaozhong who help us?" ”
Cheng Xiang glanced at him and shook his head, "I don't know who it is, in short, I am very capable." ”
Cheng Guzhi frowned, "It's been decades, grandpa really doesn't know?" Our Cheng family has reached a critical juncture, so don't the people in the DPRK and China care? ”
Cheng Xiang shook his head, "I really don't know, it seems that there is more than one person, the messenger sent is different every time, and rarely appears, and comes and goes without a trace, never passed on by word of mouth, and never leaves the handle to reveal his identity." ”
Cheng Guzhi bit his lip, "Then Grandpa hasn't checked?" ”
"Check?" Cheng Xiang shook his head, "I can't check it, I can't check it, the Black Dragon River burst its embankment a few decades ago, and the Cheng family was grabbed by someone, how can they act rashly?" ”
