Chapter 416: Murder in the Heart

"Get out of the way, I'm going to visit the city lord. In front of a luxurious room, a middle-aged man who looked a little similar to Hu Yucheng frowned and said to the guard standing at the door. His name is Hu Junyi, and he is Hu Yucheng's father.

"The steward explained that when the city lord is sick, no one is allowed to come in except for the doctor. The guard stretched out his hand to stop Hu Junyi, his face was serious, and he looked like he was doing business.

"I'm the patriarch, can't my words be as good as a minion? Hu Junyi's brows furrowed, and the coercion brought about by being in the top position for many years emanated.

The guards were forced by the momentum, but they still didn't get out of the way. Just standing upright, gritting his teeth, and holding on.

"Ahem...... Uncle is noble, how can you embarrass these little minions......" An old man walked out from the corner, his face was sallow, his hair was thin, and he had a lifeless smell all over his body. The sun was just right in this courtyard, but the place where the old man was standing couldn't get any sunlight through, and he was like a ghost.

"Hu Fu, take care of your people, it's not your turn to be the master here. Hu Junyi seemed to hate this old man very much, and when he saw him coming, he immediately had a gloomy face.

"It's not my turn to call the shots, but it's not your turn to call the shots, Lord Castle Lord...... But you're not dead yet...... Ahem. Hu Fu smiled a little sadly, maybe this smile touched his internal organs, and he couldn't help coughing twice.

"The city lord is unconscious, can't I come to visit as a big brother? Who knows if you evil servants are secretly poisoning the lord and preparing to devour the lord and stand on his own?" Hu Junyi sneered and buttoned down a big hat.

"Ahem. Uncle, what's going on with the city lord's condition. Why are you teasing the old slave here, I guess. Have you noticed that there are many battalions in the city defense that you can't command, and you think things are a little weird? Hu Fu touched the sparse beard on his chin and smiled lightly.

"You...... What are you talking about, what do you know very well? Also, the use of soldiers in the city is the result of my deliberations with the elders of the clansmen. When you say this, it seems as if I want to monopolize the army. His face twitched, this murder was a great sin. Even if there is no evidence, it is enough for Hu Junyi to be embarrassed. Also, in Toyohara Castle, the lord of the castle is greater than the sky, and the power may be shared among the deacons, but the power of the soldiers must be firmly in the hands of the lord of the castle, and it is also a big crime to tamper with the soldiers.

was really said by Hu Fu, Hu Junyi found out in the past few days that several battalions had already stood on his side. But most of them were not busy standing in line, still waiting to see something.

It stands to reason that the lord of the castle is going to die, and his illegitimate son will succeed him in the future. It's just a soft commodity. As long as Hu Junyi is willing, he can definitely be deposed along with the clan elders. The commanders of those battalions are not short-sighted. But they still chose to stand on the side of the old city lord, which made people have to be suspicious.

Could it be that Hu Yuancai was not seriously ill and was still able to firmly grasp the military power? Although this possibility is extremely small. But with Hu Junyi's suspicious temperament, he still feels a little inappropriate. I decided to check out the news here.

"It's your business what you think, but the doctor has already prescribed a medicine to deal with the city lord's condition, and it is estimated that after tonight, the city lord will be sober. Hu Fu didn't care about Hu Junyi's defense, but just chuckled.

"What......" Hu Junyi's eyes widened, and there was a hint of disbelief in his eyes. He gave Hu Yuancai an extremely peculiar poison, which would not kill people immediately, but would interfere with the operation of the human liver and make it impossible for people to detect.

"Uncle wants to visit the city lord, come back tomorrow...... Ahem, this old problem has been done again, so I'm going to ask the doctor to prescribe some medicine for me. Hu Fu laughed, and then hid into the darkness, and the coughing gradually faded away.

Hu Junyi's face was cloudy, and he was not sure whether what Hu Fu said was true or false. However, he is suspicious by nature, and even the slightest possibility is not allowed to appear.

"How could it be...... How could it be ......" He kept thinking in his heart, he had been planning for a long time, and only waited until today, how could he be willing to let him fall short.

The most important thing is that after his third brother fell ill, it was he who poisoned him, and many people already had vague speculations, after all, he benefited the most. As long as Hu Yuancai regains power, he will be the first one not to let go. Hu Yuancai is very similar to himself in terms of suspicion.

"Since that's the case......" Hu Junyi spread his will, and found that there were only a few guards around him. Before people are faced with a major decision, their consciousness will be a little excited, and the whole person will become crazy. At this time, Hu Junyi couldn't help but feel evil and guts.

As long as Hu Yuancai is killed now, then everything will be over. Even if someone suspects him, he must take into account the overall situation, after all, he has been operating for so many years, and his influence in the city is not small.

"So...... That's it. A touch of red appeared in his eyes, and he suddenly shot at the two guards guarding the door, he was able to be the elder of the clan, naturally he was above the strength of the evolution realm, and when he was caught off guard, the two of them were directly shattered, and they died on the spot without even screaming.

"Squeak. He pushed open the door to his room, his eyes scanning all around, and a large screen encased a bed. Only a few maids gathered around the bed, and a strong smell of medicine came out.

"Click. Hu Junyi struck again and killed several maids. He lowered his head, and a middle-aged man with a slea and a yellow face looked at a middle-aged man older than him lying on the bed, his breath was weak, and he seemed to be dying at any moment.

"Third brother, you didn't show anything at the beginning, I really can't figure it out, why did my father pass it on to you? However, now it's time to come back. Hu Junyi looked at the unconscious Hu Yuancai, and his face showed a hint of complexity, but this emotion was quickly covered up by the ruthlessness.

"Bang. His sleeve flickered, and a dagger with cold light flickered and stabbed at Hu Yuancai's chest. This time, it was fast and accurate, and as long as it took a tenth of a breath, Hu Yuancai's heart was penetrated.

"Whew. Suddenly, Hu Yuancai's eyes opened, his essence flashed, without the slightest sickness, and his right hand stretched out and hit Hu Junyi's chest. The last to come first, the power is also huge, and directly beat Hu Junyi out a few steps.

"Boom. The screen next to the big bed exploded, and three old men with childish faces and a young man stood there. The three old men were looking angry, "Hu Junyi, you are not so brave that you dare to assassinate the city lord." (To be continued......)
