Volume 2 A Light Walks in the Night Chapter One Hundred and One Confrontation (5)

Temporarily solving the problem in front of him, Pang Sheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. However, before he could safely relax, the drums outside the gate sounded again. This time, Pang Sheng didn't feel frightened, he was already mentally prepared.

"Let this official see how many cases there can be today. Pang Sheng glanced at Zhao Ning, and then ordered to bring people in.

As expected, this time it was also a homicide.

A family because his wife was seriously ill and had no money to buy medicine, so he borrowed Liu's seal money, and he couldn't pay it back when it expired. When the borrower worked hard to scrape together money from elsewhere, but was told by Liu that it was only enough to repay the interest, he was finally desperate and was forced to hang himself in despair.

There were also witnesses in the case, and Pang Sheng had no choice but to send someone to bring Liu's people back for interrogation.

In this way, the cases were one after another, with almost no stop in between, and most of them were murders, and each one had corresponding evidence, and under the gaze of many emotionally angry people, Pang Sheng had to take it all.

Gradually, Pang Sheng's forehead sweated more and more, and his face became more and more ugly, on the one hand, he was tired, and he drank bowl after bowl of tea, and on the other hand, he was frightened, and he was shocked by the ability shown by Zhao.

When the number of cases reached thirty, Pang Sheng knew that all luck was meaningless, the Zhao family was really ruthless, and the Liu family was really going to suffer.

Therefore, he no longer went to the second hall, even though the Great Elder of the Liu Clan repeatedly sent people to request.

If the fear in Pang Sheng's heart is more of a fear of the Zhao family, then the great elder of the Liu family in the second hall is really afraid. He couldn't sit still anymore and walked around the hall restlessly.

By the time most of the day had passed and the number of cases had exceeded fifty, the placket of his shirt was completely soaked with sweat.

There are more than 50 cases, involving hundreds of people, and there are evidence witnesses in each case, not to mention how much manpower it takes to find these people and get them to Jingzhao Mansion at the same time.

Even if Jingzhao Mansion and Dali Temple are dispatched at the same time, it is very difficult to do this. The Great Elder couldn't figure it out, the main manpower of the Zhao clan was obviously secretly monitored by them, and before Zhao Qiyue left the city, the other party obviously did not use the clansmen on a large scale!

How did they find out so many cases? When did they start? Those people who must exist and secretly escort the various sufferers to Jingzhao Mansion are not from the Zhao clan, but who are the people from the Wei clan? But if the Wei clan has such a large-scale manpower transfer, it is impossible for the Liu clan not to notice it at all!

What's more, it is not easy for people from big families to deal with these ordinary people and quickly gain the trust of each other.

The powerful and low-level people are people of two worlds, whether it is words, deeds, temperament, thoughts, or ways of doing things, there are great differences, and the nobles of the family should go deep into the people, to understand the suffering of the low-level, and mix with them without a trace, which is simply nonsense!

"Zhao...... Zhao's ...... Zhao Xuanji! You old horseman, old yin dog! How long have you been planning against the Liu family? How many preparations have you made? How can you be so insidious and despicable!" The great elder of the Liu family was furious, and if it was possible, he wanted to point at Zhao Xuanji's nose and ask for clarity.

But he couldn't.

This offensive was silent beforehand, and at the time of the incident, the momentum was like a flood, and if it did not move, it was enough, and if it moved, it was divided into two parts, and this was the art of war, and if it was not moving, it was like a mountain, and aggression was like fire! Zhao Xuanji actually used the way of a soldier who fought on the battlefield to fight in the family battle. But Liu failed to anticipate Zhao's actions.

Now, the Liu family has really encountered a catastrophe, and this time if he doesn't die, he will be greatly injured!

"Quick, go and report to the head of the family!" The Great Elder hurriedly gave an order to the clansmen - he had already given several such orders, and every time he repeated it, the situation was a little more serious, and by now, it was already a hundred thousand urgent.

But the Great Elder had nothing to do about it, watching the Liu family being pushed into the abyss step by step by the Zhao family, he could only be meaningless and angry, and he couldn't do anything!

What can he do? Send someone to block the gate of Jingzhao Mansion, or control the streets? And as long as those bitter masters who have been persecuted by the Liu family can continue to walk up to the lobby of Jingzhao Mansion, the Liu family can only sink into the abyss little by little!

Do you bite the Zhao clan back? Say that all this is the Zhao clan is pouring dirty water? Are they making trouble behind their backs? This is meaningless at all! Those cases are all true! This is like two armies fighting, the flaws in their own formations do exist, and the other side's men and horses have already killed through the flaws, how can they turn the tide?

Sitting on the chair, the Great Elder gasped heavily, only to feel that the sky was dark, anxious and full of sadness.

After Liu Muzhi received the news of the latest situation, he was also shocked, but after all, he was the head of the family, and he could still hold on, so after thinking about it for a while, he went to see Xu Minglang and explained the situation to the other party truthfully, without hiding it at all.

"Now, the Liu family is in danger, please Xu Gong must help!" After introducing the situation, Liu Muzhi gave Xu Minglang a big salute.

Xu Minglang already knew about the movements of Jingzhao Mansion, and he also expected that Liu Muzhi would come to ask for help, but he didn't expect the situation to get out of control so quickly and so powerfully, "How can the Liu family have so many bad deeds? The Liu family is too unscrupulous in order to grab wealth, right?

The family naturally wants to continue to accumulate wealth, but the methods are so naked and rude, revealing so many handles that can be caught, even Xu Minglang feels too stupid.

Since ancient times, Li Ling Zhi was dizzy. How big the interests are, how presumptuous people's behavior will be, and how stupid they will appear after the incident.

"Gong Xu, now is not the time to count down my Liu family, let's still think about a good countermeasure!" Liu Muzhi listened to Xu Minglang's words, and was full of resentment.

Xu Minglang is the prime minister, he has great power, how much benefit he wants, not to mention bribery, the routine filial piety of officials at all levels can kill people on the street. These kinds of filial piety of extraordinary value are not something that the officials can afford, and which copper plate is not from the wrong way? How many tears and even the souls of the people at the bottom are there?

And the Prime Minister's Mansion has Xiao Yan's rich gifts to receive every year, which is a contribution from the royal court, and casually twisting out a thousand-year-old snow lotus and a hundred-year-old Ganoderma lucidum, all of which are priceless.

Liu's annual income from loan sharks to a thousand commoners could not catch up with this one. There are still a lot of troublesome things to deal with, such as debt collection, debt evasion, etc., all of which need to be invested, and in this process, how many people have to be killed and disabled, and the profits can be compared to the value of a century-old Ganoderma lucidum?

The Liu family, who was overtaken by the Xu family, wants to recover his status, Liu Muzhi wants to become the prime minister in his lifetime, can he work hard to make money and strengthen his strength?

"The matter has come to this point, it's very difficult to deal with, how does Liu Gong want me to help?" Xu Minglang asked calmly. As far as the current situation is concerned, Liu's stinks are already stinking, and he doesn't want to help vigorously and make himself fishy.

The Liu family is one of the best in the door, and the biggest threat to the position of the Xu family, when dealing with the generals, Xu Minglang and Liu Muzhi are in a group, and when they return to the door, Xu Minglang also has to guard against Liu Muzhi to replace him.

If the Liu family falls this time, it may not be beneficial to him. All in all, everything depends on the contrast between the necessity, risk, loss, and benefit of helping Liu.

"The Zhao clan attacked my Liu family, in fact, it was not just my Liu family, but all the scholars! In other words, this is the first big battle of the Jiangmen counterattack! If the Liu family loses, then next, all the doors will face the danger of being attacked by the Jiangmen!

"How we dealt with Jiangmen at the beginning, how Jiangmen will deal with us in the future, what is the situation of Jiangmen before, what kind of situation will our door be suppressed, and it will definitely be worse!

"Duke Xu, when we dealt with Jiangmen, we just seized power and brought down a Jiangmen official, that is, we tried every means to replace it with a civilian official, or set up a new official position in the Yamen, but what about Jiangmen? As soon as the Zhao family made a move, we were going to destroy my Liu family, and it was really necessary to permanently break off the arm of the giant of the door!

"How big is this, and how big is the threat? If the Liu family falls, who will be next? Once Mendi falls too much, will Mendi, the giant, still be able to stand?"

Speaking of this, Liu Muzhi took a deep breath and looked at Sensen, "Gong Xu, this is a war!

Xu Minglang's eyes changed several times, his heart shook, he thought for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Liu Gongyan is exaggerated, right? And because of the current bad situation and the loss of a lot of interests, each family has begun to fight, split, and fight internally for its own survival. How could the Zhao clan gather all the generals together and let all the generals listen to the Zhao clan's arrangement and action?"

"If this is not the case, how can the case of Pingkangfang Feixue Building be explained?" asked Liu Mu word by word.

Xu Minglang frowned: "What do you mean?"

"This case was originally in the hands of Wu Shaochen, the chief banner of the Governor's Mansion. But the next day it became Zhao Ning presiding over the case. If the Wu family did not agree with the Zhao family, how could Wu Shaochen give up such a big case? If the Shi family was not in the same boat as the Zhao family, how could Shi Heng give Zhao Ning the opportunity to make great contributions to this case?"

He has now "figured it out", Yipinlou is the wings of the Zhao family, and the Zhao family has long known that Bai Yi will be the minions of the Liu family! and has "figured out" the whole thing.

The first step of the Zhao family to deal with the Liu family was to use the Yipinlou to fight with the Baiyi Society, and after the conflict broke out naturally between the two sides, the Duweifu destroyed the Baiyi Society and the Goshawk Gang in the name of investigating the case, and let the Yipinlou dominate the rivers and lakes of Yanping City.

The second step is to use the power of Yipinlou to collect evidence of Liu's evil deeds non-stop and quietly, at this time, Liu's eyes and ears are gone, and he will not be able to detect what Yipinlou has done in time, and because the white clothes will be destroyed, the corresponding internal problems also need to be dealt with, and there is no time to deal with the Zhao family with all his strength.

The third step is to let Yipinlou take the sufferers to Jingzhao Mansion together, and use one murder case after another to achieve the goal of bringing down the Liu family!

Among them, using the power of the Governor's Mansion to investigate the case and destroy the White Clothes Society is the beginning and foundation of the whole plan, if it is not for the absolute certainty of the Governor's Mansion and knowing that the Wu family and the Shi Clan will cooperate, all these plans will not be realized!

So although I don't know why the Wu family and the Shi family listened to Zhao Xuanji, and what agreement there is between them, Liu Muzhi knows that the Liu family must use the power of all the sects to protect itself, otherwise it is impossible to survive this catastrophe!
