Chapter 318: Side Knocking
That's good, as long as you really do this, set up a table of wine in the pavilion on the second floor of Hongyun Building, and I will know. But then again, setting up a banquet is a sure thing to sign a contract. You can't go back on it! You can't set up a banquet without success, then I won't do it. ”
"That's that, that's. Wang Xilun patted his chest and said: "Who am I, Wang Xilun? After saying that, he stopped talking nonsense, since everyone let you go in this dangerous place, you will have to stay for a long time, isn't it a fool? He turned around and hurried downstairs, and walked around the alley for a while before going up the street. After making sure that no one was following him, he ran away.
Xin said: "Little rabbit, you are really tender, and you are so bold that you dare to run to the capital of the Northern Alliance to commit crimes." Eat the ambition leopard guts you...... Hmph, do you think that after killing someone, you can settle things with me by talking to me for a few more words? Wait, there are patrols of the Praetorian Guard of the Royal City all over this street, and in less than ten minutes, they will be able to wipe you out. and that slut Yan Zi, I don't know how to report to Lao Tzu, and I'll clean you up later. Let the officials of the Praetorian Guard rub your snow-white figure well, and you will know what the end will be if you are not loyal to my lord. ”
In the small building, Luo Ming woke up Chun'er, the maid who was sealed in the acupoint, and asked, "You have to think about it, then Wang Lao'er will definitely settle accounts with you in the future." Instead of suffering in the future, why don't you pack up and send you to Black Cloud City?"
The two women couldn't speak for a long time, and they just hugged each other and shed tears......
It didn't take much trouble for Wang Xilun to find a bunch of patrolling soldiers. The commander who led the team knew that the stakes were high as soon as he heard it. He first ordered a soldier to immediately go to the Jiumen Admiral's Mansion to report, and he led people to quietly surround the small building under the guidance of Wang Xilun. Everyone had heard the legendary story of Qin Tianzhu and his men, so the chief only took a tight siege blockade and did not dare to rush into action.
Huo Qing, the commander of the Nine Gates who was in charge of managing public order in Weiyang City, also felt that the matter was tricky after hearing the report. On the one hand, he sent a large number of men and horses to reinforce him, and on the other hand, he reported to the palace and asked the palace to send a master of the imperial army.
Before dawn, the residents within 300 meters of the small building were quietly moved, and a large number of archers were ambushed in all corners, and the atmosphere was very tense. The cultivation masters in the palace came out, and more than a dozen people rushed to suppress the formation, and even Huo Qing himself felt that it was too much of a fuss. But no one came in or out of the small building all the time, and a lamp flickered in the window on the second floor, giving off a dim light. However, there is no figure to be seen moving around the window.
When everything was arranged, someone began to shout: "The people in the building are coming out one by one." You are surrounded, don't try to resist, at least a thousand bows are at the door, capable of shooting each of you into a hedgehog. ”
After shouting for a long time, no one responded, so the man shouted again: "The people in the building hurry up, or we will set fire to the building!" But there was still no response inside.
Considering the danger of storming in, at the suggestion of a group of masters, the fire began to cause the soldiers to set fire to the building. The fire burned until the sun shone brightly, and the mostly wooden building was completely destroyed. However, in the end, they didn't find anyone, not to mention Qin Tianzhu and the others, even Miss Yan Zi and her maid Chun'er were nowhere to be found. Only then did Huo Qing think of blocking all the exits of the city gates, and urgently issued a sea fishing document, asking all checkpoints to pay strict attention to the gangsters.
After tossing all night and not catching anyone, Wang Xilun was not only scolded by Huo Qing, but also turned over by his fierce wife when he returned home. He was very depressed and frustrated, but he didn't plan to give Black Cloud City any market discounts. He thought that the little bunny must have scared me out and then ran away. Dog's day slipped away quickly, next time I'll see how you find me.
The Shang King's Mansion was not only his home, but also the place where he and all the heads of the business associations worked. Not only did he greatly strengthen the security of the Shang Palace, recruiting many security guards and purchasing a large number of trained hunting dogs, but he also added a large number of posts around his house that could be monitored by each other to prevent sneak attacks.
"In this life, if you Luo Ming don't die, I won't be out of the Shang Palace, I'll see what you can do to me!" Wang Xilun thought a little obscenely.
The next two days passed, and Wang Hao, one of the vice presidents of the Chamber of Commerce, was shot through the head by a crossbow arrow flying out of nowhere while walking on the streets of Weiyangcheng. Although he had more than a dozen bodyguards hugging him, they couldn't be sure where the bolts came from. This incident caused a huge shock in the business association. Senior leaders are worried about their safety.
Even more astonishing happened on the fifth day. Wang Xilun was woken up in the morning by a panicked butler, saying that the bulldog Bobby, whom he had always loved very much, died violently in the hallway at the door of his bedroom.
An autopsy by a doctor revealed that the dog had been poisoned. He ordered a thorough investigation of the people related to the dog food last night, but in the end he couldn't find out why.
This incident deeply shook Wang Xilun. Only then did he realize that the child was not easy to mess with. Since Luo Ming asked him that night, not only has he never left Weiyang City, but he has also wandered around him like a ghost. It seemed that as long as he didn't do what he had promised that night, Luo Ming's actions would not stop. In the afternoon of the same day, he summoned the high-ranking officials of the business association and suggested that from now on only a symbolic fee should be levied on all commercial activities in the Blue Dragon Kingdom. The senior officials heard about what had happened in the past few days and unanimously approved the proposal.
Business associations are self-organized organizations that do not have the permission of the government, so they are not protected by the authorities. The business associations themselves do not want the government to be involved in this, because once the government interferes, their interests and status will be seriously affected. But the problem now is that these things are spreading in Weiyang City, and Lord Jingzhao Yin Huanghe (equivalent to the current mayor) personally came to Wang Xilun and asked him to cooperate in the arrest of Luo Ming.
"We have searched through the entire Weiyang City, and we have found no trace of him. Huang He said straight to the point: "I heard that he has an agreement with you: as long as you agree to reduce taxes and fees for them, you will go to the pavilion on the second floor of Hongyun Building to set up a table of wine." Is there such a thing? Can you set up a fake banquet and cooperate with us to arrest him?"
