It rained all night, the next morning, the majestic heavy rain finally turned into a decline, only the slightest wisp remained, the gate of Zhongzhou City slowly opened, some of the people who braved the wind and rain flocked in, although Zhongzhou is not the peak of the Central Plains in retro times, but it is still the premier state, there are many people, the state city enters and exits every day There are a lot of people, plus the White Dragon Temple in the city, every fifteenth day of the first month there must be a grand temple fair, pilgrims and hawkers have entered the city, just the number of people who enter the city for an hour, there can be five or six thousand people.

Xiao Yu put on an ink-colored poncho and walked out of the gate of Sima's house. There was no retinue and no carriage. Iron boots made a crisp sound as they stepped on the bluestone streets. At this time, there were not half pedestrians on the streets, and from time to time in the gutters by the roadside, or in the deep alleys, mutilated corpses could be seen, the blood had been washed away by the heavy rain, and even the smell of blood was unpleasant, and they died silently, and after death.

When Xiao Yu walked out of the long street in front of Sima's house, a slightly delicate oil-paper umbrella appeared in the rain curtain, and with a crackling sound of treading water, Duanmu Ruisheng walked out of the corner with an umbrella and appeared in front of Xiao Yu.

Xiao Yu stopped and said, "Duanmu Gongzi is not small, and he dares to walk around Zhongzhou City at this time. ”

Duanmu Ruisheng shook his head and said: "Your Highness is laughing, now the people of the Zhao family don't dare to go out of the house for half a step, I am naturally not afraid of anything, if it was last night, I would never dare to go out half a step." ”

Xiao Yu asked, "How about the loss of the Duanmu family?"

Duanmu Ruisheng smiled slightly bitterly: "I have to say that the Zhao family has a deep heritage as the first family in Zhongzhou, even if the Duanmu family and the Sima family join forces, with the assistance of the secret guard, and also occupy the first place, the loss with the Zhao family is still maintained in a roughly equal situation, but this loss is shared equally by the three of us, and the Zhao family is responsible for it, so it seems that we have made a profit." ”

Xiao Yu said indifferently: "But it is the Zhao family that loses after all, and it can only be the Zhao family." ”

Duanmu Ruisheng complimented: "Your Highness has strategized, and Zhongzhou City is already in the hands of Your Highness." ”

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "There is still one step left." ”

Duanmu Ruisheng's waist bent out of a just right arc, "Sooner or later." ”

Xiao Yu didn't say much, and continued to move forward, Duanmu Ruisheng naturally followed behind Xiao Yu, and followed suit.

In front of the ancestral house of the Zhao family, there is a large square, and it is said that a certain head of the Zhao family once had 2,000 soldiers here, and expelled the governor Yamen who was originally stationed here from the state city. At this time, this square, which symbolizes the glory and prosperity of the Zhao family, can be described as a crowd of heroes, because of their own ambitions or interests, gathered here.

Duanmu Linlang, the head of the Duanmu family, is a middle-aged Confucian scholar, coming in a carriage, the carriage is wide, there are tables and soft couches, there is a pot of relatively unpopular Qi red boiling on the table, the teapot is the purple sand pot made by everyone who made the pot during the Taizong period of this dynasty, the color has tended to be dark purple, there is the light of jade, smooth and round, there are several pieces of "tea mountain" on the inner wall, at this time it is fixed by the hidden buckle, there is a small hole at the bottom, there is a flame gushing inside, and the end is extremely exquisite. Duanmu Linlang squinted, sniffed the fragrance of tea, and his face was serene.

Not far from Duanmu's carriage is the Sima family's car, which is different from Duanmu Linlang's style, Sima Zhen's carriage is burning with a furnace of ambergris, and in the smoke, a bewitching woman is obediently snuggling in Sima Zhen's arms. Sima Zhen's face seems to be calm, but his heart is not very calm, last night's scene kept flashing in front of his eyes, and the shadow hidden in his eyes could not dissipate, although he had been a fake couple with Yan Keqing for more than ten years, and he had not been able to touch half a hair of that beautiful woman, but after seeing the woman's man from a distance last night, the jealousy in his heart was still like a poisonous snake biting his heart, and the hand that was originally pressed on the woman's hip arc in his arms subconsciously exerted a slight force, and the bewitching woman was in pain, but she still forced her face to laugh, and she didn't dare to leak out the slightest dissatisfaction.

In addition to the two helmsmen of the Duanmu family and the Sima family, there are also Li Rusong and the Zhongzhou Secret Guard Mansion under his command, according to Xiao Yu's promise, the results of the war will be divided afterwards, the Sima family wants the property left by the Zhao family, and the Duanmu family wants the Zhao family to collect all the cheats collected over the years, and as for the gold and silver property, all the secret guards will take over. This time Zhongzhou planned, even if the three families took what they needed, besides, there were also those two great immortals who came to Zhongzhou to sit in town, and they were not afraid of making a nest fight with uneven distribution of spoils.

When he saw Zhao Wou-ki, who was on crutches, appear at the door of the Zhao family's mansion, Duanmu Linlang put down the teapot in his hand, Sima Zhen also subconsciously stopped rubbing the woman's round buttocks, Li Rusong raised his head, and everyone couldn't help but hold their breath, after all, this old man who has been in charge of Zhongzhou for decades, and the majesty he has accumulated is so profound that these three are considered the top forces in Zhongzhou City, and they feel the most profoundly.

In addition to a few big shots, there are more elite combat forces of each family in the square, this time it is a matter of life and death, the Zhao family is already the elite, except for the two thousand six hundred iron horsemen who did not enter the city, and the team of more than 100 cultivators, which has exceeded the vast majority of small sects.

As for the Duanmu family and the Sima family, there were sixty people each, and then there were more than eighty cultivators from the Secret Guard, half of whom were from the Zhongzhou Secret Guard Mansion, and half were other Secret Guard Mansion masters who were urgently transferred from other state capitals.

Such a group of people wearing black ponchos stood behind Li Rusong, making it more and more unfathomable that this secret guard commander who lived in seclusion on weekdays was unfathomable.

Zhao Wou-Ki looked at the menacing three families, smiled, looked at the worshipping Fang Zhou beside him, and said in a deep voice: "The Sima family and the Duanmu family have joined forces, Zheng'er's death is ......."

Fang Zhou sighed and said, "It's the old man who has taken a look. ”

Zhao Wouji's dry fingers clenched the crutches in his hand, and said calmly: "But it's okay, this is also an opportunity, maybe our Zhao family can take this opportunity to eradicate the Duanmu and Sima families in one fell swoop, and take Zhongzhou City into their own hands." ”

Fang Zhou said softly: "I hope that the ancestor will have mercy." ”

Li Rusong, as one of the people who spoke, walked out first and said loudly: "Zao Wou-ki, if you are arrested, Li can be the master and spare your life." ”

Zhao Wuji was stunned for a moment, and then laughed loudly, "Li Rusong, old man, no matter who is behind you, this is Zhongzhou, and it is not your turn to make waves here!"

Li Rusong's expression remained unchanged, and he continued to move forward while saying: "Zao Wou-ki, you have occupied the top spot in the Zhongzhou list for several years, how about letting Li, the eighth in the district, teach you today?"

Zhao Wou-Ki floated down the thirty-step stairs and came to the square, pointed the dragon head crutch in his hand at Li Rusong, and said indifferently: "Since you are bent on death, then the old man will fulfill you." ”

Li Rusong took off the ink-colored poncho on his body and handed it to Li Ruchun's hands, and his hands were as crystal as jade.

Sima Zhen glanced at the many secret guards behind Li Rusong, gritted his teeth, let go of the woman in his arms, floated out of the carriage, and said in a loud voice: "Brother Li, Sima Zhen is here to help you!"

Duanmu Linlang on the other side saw this scene, sighed, and also got out of the carriage, and said loudly: "Duanmu Linlang also helps Li Du unify his arms!"

The three principals of the Secret Guard, the Sima family, and the Duanmu family shot together.

Zhao Wouji, who was alone, was not afraid, and laughed loudly: "Good! Good! Duanmu Linlang of the sixth, Li Rusong of the seventh, and Sima Zhen of the eighth, it seems that the old man has not made a move for a long time, you have forgotten what kind of means Zhao Wouji had in Zhongzhou back then, and today the old man will slaughter you in one battle!"

I saw Zao Wou-Ki with a dragon head cane in his hand, and a splendid robe floating.

The rain all over the ground gathered together and turned into a hideous water dragon, with angry eyes and beards!
