Chapter 187: Killing You Chills
Except for some people who hadn't come back to their senses yet, all those who had seen through Mo Chen's plan couldn't help but be frightened, their hands and feet were cold and their bodies stiffened.
Half of the heads of the family in the world gathered in Pyeongchang, and the protection and vigilance in the rear were naturally much worse than before. And the First Emperor remained silent, which also fueled the pride of the family and made them relax their vigilance more and more. When the butcher's knife fell, without the principal in charge, and the great family with insufficient vigilance, how could it compete with the first emperor who had been prepared for a long time?
This must be a one-sided slaughter of Chiguoguo!
The Xiao family is just the beginning!
But where the next butcher's knife of the First Emperor will fall, no one knows, and no one dares to imagine, but everyone knows one thing, this day is going to change!
"How dare he, how dare he do it to us. He is not afraid that we will rebel, he is not afraid that the empire will be ruined in one fell swoop, how dare he do this!? Someone with a dazed and frightened face, who had not yet woken up from this sudden news, muttered almost frantically.
There was no answer, no one to persuade.
"You say, is it possible that this news is just fake?"
Faced with the sudden question, everyone couldn't help but hesitate. If the First Emperor really did it, there would definitely be no turning back. But whether the news is true or not, who dares to say that it will be certain?
For a while, only the originally noisy venue was full of frightened doubts, which made the atmosphere more and more dull.
Of course, he was not the only one who questioned this kind, and when the news came, the Wang family's mansion was in chaos.
After hearing the news of the collapse of the Xiao family, Xiao Lao was like a lightning strike, his eyes were round and he looked at the person who sent the news, and he sat there in disbelief without coming back to his senses. He closed his eyes with grief on his face, his ruddy face was as pale as paper, and he took a few deep breaths before he could recover from the sudden news.
"Poof, the shaft dares to be like this, and an dare to be like this!" Xiao Lao was only calm for two seconds, and suddenly raised his head and spurted out a mouthful of blood, looking up at the roof with grief and indignation, his voice was like a cuckoo crying blood, which made people sad.
"Xiao Lao and rest assured, we don't know if the matter is true or not, and the most important thing now is to determine the truth of the news. In case this is just the first emperor's suspicious array, if we are in a panic, won't we be in a mess? ”
"Yes, Xiao Lao's top priority should be to contact his family to determine the situation, we can't mess up because of a piece of news that I don't know whether it's true or not!"
Everyone stepped forward to comfort them, but the solemnity on their faces couldn't be hidden. Xiao Lao found a little hope in the comfort of everyone, his pale face was a little more bloody, his godless eyes regained their divine light, and he said weakly and urgently: "Yes, yes, the old man wants to ask about the situation, ask about the situation." ”
As he spoke, he pressed his hands tightly on the armrests of his chair, stood up tremblingly, and didn't even have time to greet everyone, so he hurried outside.
When the people saw this, they would not stop it. When Xiao Lao left, the solemnity and uneasiness on everyone's faces could no longer be hidden. They glanced at each other, and suddenly someone said heavily: "You say, the First Emperor really did it?" ”
"It shouldn't be possible, the First Emperor must know that once he does it, there will be no turning back. Even if he is invincible in the world, can he still kill all of us? ”
"Yes, it must be. Unless he's crazy, he definitely won't make a move. ”
The crowd whispered, and most were silent and did not speak. Although their words are full of confidence, if you taste them carefully, it is not difficult to see the lack of confidence and fear in them.
The First Emperor didn't dare to kill everyone, but it doesn't mean that everyone dared to fight to the death with the First Emperor!
Just when everyone was silent and didn't know what to say, a servant's voice suddenly came from outside the door: "Master, Gong Cao has arrived." ”
"Invite Cao Gong to the study first, and I'll go." Wang Shangwen came back to his senses and commanded with a slight frown. After he finished speaking, he looked at the people with solemn expressions and distractions, and arched his hand and said: "I'm afraid that things will be variable, so I'll go and discuss with Gong Cao, and please wait here for a while." ”
"Don't dare, don't dare." Although everyone was uneasy and desperate for an answer, they didn't dare to refute the face of the Cao Wang family, and they responded one after another.
Inside the study.
Cao Gong sat leisurely on the low couch, playing with the bead chain with one hand at will, without the slightest worry and panic in his expression, giving people great confidence. He and Wang Shangwen were separated by a small coffee table, and the two were silent for a long time, and neither of them took the lead to speak.
"Oh, the old man thought he had calculated everything, but he didn't expect to be pecked in the eye by birds today. The First Emperor, it was really beyond the old man's expectations. Cao Gong sighed, his words full of admiration.
"What does Gong Cao mean, something really happened to the Xiao family?" Wang Shangwen frowned, and his words were a little unconfident. Until now, he couldn't believe that Mo Chen dared to make a move against the Xiao family.
The Xiao family is not an ordinary family, and has an extraordinary background and strength in Dajin. The most important thing is that now that the Saga Alliance is about to move, any stimulus by Mo Chen may lead to immeasurable consequences.
At least in Wang Shangwen's opinion, as long as Mo Chen is not crazy, it is absolutely impossible to really do it, otherwise it will definitely be a lose-lose situation.
Cao Gong didn't say anything, and suddenly cut off the silk thread that connected the bead chains, and let the precious fire spirit wood beads scatter and jump on the ground.
"Got it?"
Cao Gong looked at Wang Shangwen deeply, and his voice was flat and chilling.
Wang Shangwen was stunned for a moment, and then his expression changed greatly.
The alliance of the Maisons may seem terrifyingly large, but the connection between them is equally pitiful. The First Emperor's actions seemed reckless, and he was even suspected of killing himself, but how could the Family Alliance always have one mind in the face of the First Emperor's butcher's knife. When that insignificant connection was severed by the butcher's knife of the First Emperor, did the Family Alliance really still exist?
"Gong Cao, you have expected it for a long time?" Wang Shangwen's expression was extremely gloomy.
"The old man still underestimated the First Emperor, otherwise he wouldn't have fallen to this point, I'm afraid we won't be able to get out of Pyeongchang City today." Cao Gong stood up and walked out with Shi Shiran, but the desperate words made Wang Shangwen's face extremely ugly.
He took a deep look at the back of Cao Gong leaving, and knocked out his previous suspicions about Cao Gong. After all, if Cao Gong had calculated everything, how could he come to Pingchang City to wait for death. He sighed and didn't continue.
We all underestimated the First Emperor and his determination and courage!
And when Cao Gong and Wang Shangwen were spying, Pingchang City had already become a pot of porridge.
With the news of the collapse of the Xiao family, then came the news of the collapse of the Runan Yang family and the Yingchuan Liu family. In one day, the three surnames and nine families who were once famous in the Great Jin Dynasty were wiped out in a blink of an eye.
On top of that, no one knows who will be next, and no one knows when the First Emperor's butcher's knife will stop!
Crazy, everyone can think that the First Emperor has gone crazy!
