Chapter 84 (2nd Update)
Cheng Guzhi looked at Cheng Xiang, and from his body, he saw that it was not easy for the Cheng family to maintain it for decades. He has always been afraid that the Cheng family will be destroyed in his hands, but in the end, the Cheng family is still destroyed in his hands.
If the Heilong River burst was not concealed a few decades ago, and most of the descendants of the Cheng family were lost, then the Cheng family might not be able to slow down for decades, and would no longer become the head of the top ten families in the Northland, but it would definitely not be greater than the crimes of the Nine Clans that have been committed today.
At this moment, while his heart ached, he thanked Hua Yan very much, thanked her for taking a fancy to his little talent, thanked her for her kindness and kindness not to implicate the innocent descendants of the Cheng family, gave him a choice, and also gave the innocent people of the Cheng family a way to live.
He asked softly, "Now that the Wind Spirit Guard has been removed, what is Grandpa going to do next?" ”
Cheng Xiang said, "I have asked your father to check to see if the other families are the same as us." If they are all eliminated like Feng Lingwei, then it is conceivable how powerful the Hua family is, if they don't make a move, they will be killed with one blow, and they will not give us a chance to resist. This piece of heaven in the northland, I'm afraid it's really going to end, and our Cheng family is also going to be finished. ”
Cheng Guzhi nodded and sat down, "I accompanied my grandfather and waited for my father's news." ”
Cheng Xiang nodded and shouted to the outside, "Someone." ”
Someone showed up.
Cheng Xiang pointed to the ground and ordered tiredly, "Put him in a coffin and bury him." ”
Someone should have done so, and immediately carried down the dead man on the ground. Soon, someone came in to clean the ground, and after a while, the ground was clean, and there was no trace of blood in sight, if it weren't for the faint smell of blood in the house, and no one would have known that someone had died here a moment ago.
Cheng Xiang really needed someone to accompany him at this time, and he chose his grandson who he taught carefully. The room was quiet, the needle drop could be heard, in the silence, he felt a chest tightness and suffocation in his heart for a while, and after a moment of silence, he spoke again, "Brother Gu, if you are expelled from the house, are you willing?" ”
Cheng Gu was startled, looked at Cheng Xiang, and blurted out, "Grandpa......"
Cheng Xiang looked at him, his eyes were loving and desolate, "Once the crimes committed by the Cheng family are announced to the world, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will find the Cheng family to settle the account, even if the Queen Mother will intercede for the Cheng family, but our Cheng family has committed too many crimes, and we can't avoid the big crime of the Nine Clans, once the Nine Clans are punished, our Cheng family will have no hope." ”
Cheng Guzhi's face turned pale, "So grandpa wants to expel me from the house?" ”
Cheng Xiang closed his eyes again, "The Cheng family always has to stay." ”
Cheng Guzhi shook his head and said resolutely, "Grandpa, I don't want to, I am a descendant of the Cheng family in life, and I will be a descendant of the Cheng family in death." ”
He never felt Cheng Xiang's love for him deeply for a moment, even if the Cheng family reached such a critical juncture, he still wanted to save his life and did not hesitate to expel him from the house. But even so, he didn't dare to tell him at this time that his grandson, who was thinking about him everywhere, had already betrayed the Cheng family, and he had released the news of the secret line of the Hua family.
He doesn't want to be a sinner of the Cheng family, he wants to protect the innocent people of the Cheng family from death, he wants to do something for the people of the Northland, and he doesn't want to see his grandfather like this, let alone see his grandfather have an accident, but since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety have been difficult to achieve.
He was cut inch by inch in his heart, and he couldn't hide it anymore at this time, so he stretched out his hand to cover his face, ashamed of Cheng Xiang's teaching.
Cheng Xiang looked at Cheng Guzhi and reached out to pat him on the shoulder, "That's it, if you don't want to, then it's okay." Although Feng Lingwei is gone, the Cheng family has not yet reached the point where it will fall immediately. ”
Cheng Guzhi didn't speak, he only felt that Cheng Xiang's hand on his shoulder was as heavy as a thousand pounds.
An hour later, Cheng Yao staggered back with a white face, the late autumn wind outside was already a little cold, he rushed into the house with a cold body, walked to the door, tripped over the threshold, and almost fell, seeing Cheng Xiang and Cheng Guzhi sitting opposite each other, he stood in a panic holding on to the door frame for a while without speaking.
"Can you find out?" When Cheng Xiang saw Cheng Yao's appearance, the guess in his heart had been confirmed, and his voice suppressed the rolling emotions and asked, "What?" Has it been wiped out like the Wind Guard? ”
Cheng Yao nodded, and said in a trembling voice, "Father, how is this possible?" It was only overnight. How is that possible? Does the Hua family really have such a great ability? Can you sweep away the elite secret guards of the major families in the Northland overnight? I don't believe it. ”
Although Cheng Xiang had already guessed, when he heard Cheng Yao confirm it, his face was still gray, "Let's talk about it in detail." ”
Cheng Yao staggered into the back room, sat on a chair, and said with a trembling and frightened voice, "Our Cheng family's Feng Lingwei, the Su family's Flame Guard, the Huaiwang Mansion's Trace Light Guard, and the elite secret guards of the other seven great families were all killed overnight, and no one remained. ”
Cheng Xiang's body shook.
Cheng Yao suddenly became excited, "There are three hundred Wind Spirit Guards, four hundred Flame Guards, three hundred Trace Light Guards, and the elite secret guards of the other seven great families combined, there are more than a thousand people." In this way, overnight, more than 2,000 people. It's not an ordinary person, but an elite secret guard who has been domesticated, and it's all folded. If it was really the Hua family's doing, then how many people should the Hua family have buried in the dark line of the Northland? ”
Cheng Xiang's body shook again, "Do others say who did it?" ”
Cheng Yao shook his head, "I don't know." When the words fell, his voice became sharp, and he didn't know whether to sarcastically mock himself or others, "More than 2,000 people were killed like this, and the funny thing is that we don't even know who did it." Father, when you talk about the Hua family, it's just speculation. ”
Cheng Xiang said with a gray face, "Except for the Hua family, I can't think of anyone who has this ability." The hidden piles buried by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in the north have already been removed one after another, and Su Zi has some ability to kill that kid, and he also has some manpower in his hands, but he can't kill the elite secret guards of the top ten families overnight. In this world, if you say that you are not afraid of the net of the Northland, I really can't think of a flower family. ”
Cheng Yao looked at Cheng Guzhi when he heard this, "You have been to the Hua family, do you think it is the hand of the Hua family?" ”
Cheng Guzhi knew undoubtedly in his heart that it was the hand of the Hua family, and it was still the hand that followed Hua Yan's orders, Hua Yan came to the north, she was respected by the Hua family as the young master, and she was a person in the Hua family who said nothing except Hua Zhuo. But he couldn't nod and tell Cheng Yao.
He shook his head, "The Hua family is very ordinary, I don't know if it's the Hua family's hand." ”
Cheng Yao saw that he couldn't ask anything from his mouth, and he didn't expect to ask anything, although Cheng Xiang liked Cheng Guzhi all along, but he, as a father, felt that Cheng Guzhi didn't look like the Cheng family, he was too gentlemanly, and not like his son.
He was hit hard this night, and at this time, he was in no mood to train Cheng Gu Zhi, so he asked Cheng Xiang for advice, "Father, what should we do?" Now after this incident, the major families are panicking. ”
Cheng Xiang coughed, he coughed violently, and he couldn't hold it back for a while.
Cheng Guzhi got up, stretched out his hand to pat Cheng Xiang on the back, and hurriedly ordered someone to pour hot tea.
Cheng Xiang took a while to calm down, took a sip of hot tea, and then said dryly, "What else can I do?" Wait! Will the people of Beijing watch the business of the Northland be ruined? Will we all watch us all die? ”
Cheng Yao was immediately relieved, gritted his teeth and said, "No, after decades of operation in the Northland, the people of Beijing should not give up." ”
Cheng Xiang nodded, "Wait and see!" Now that we have our hands and feet cut off, we can't do anything about it. ”
Cheng Yao bowed his head, and he also knew in his heart that there was no other way than to wait and see the situation now.
This night, the ten great families in Bei'an City all turned on the lights in the middle of the night, and lit up all night, and everyone guessed in horror and disbelief who killed the most elite secret guard united by the ten major families.
Most people guessed that it was the Hua family like Cheng Xiang, because in the past two days, the ten major families have united to check the dark line of the Hua family in the north. Nothing was found, but the most elite secret guards of the ten great families were all broken overnight tonight.
One folds without leaving any ground! The start is fast and accurate, decisive and ruthless, and it really does not leave room for the top ten families.
At the same time, everyone was frightened, and they all felt that the sky in the Northland, which they supported and covered layer after layer, was really going to be unable to cover it.
In Huaiwang's mansion, Huaiwang was woken up by Xia Yi, Xia Yi is the younger brother of Huaiwang Xia Huan, after the death of Huaiwangfu, Huaiwang was decadent for a few years, and handed over the affairs of Huaiwangfu to several brothers and uncles and nephews, and Xia Yi was Xia Huan's younger brother, and the most elite secret guard of Huaiwangfu was handed over to him.
Xia Huan has been looking for his daughter all these years, not paying much attention to the affairs of Huai Wangfu, and becoming an idle and empty prince. In normal times, no one is looking for him.
Tonight, Xia Yi didn't expect Trace Qingwei to be so folded tonight, he got the news, almost fainted, held his breath, found King Huai with a white face, and stumbled and incomplete, revealing a very frightened look, "Big brother, Trace Qingwei has been picked by someone, and all of them have been removed, what should I do?" ”
