Chapter 371: Assassin

Ning Pengpeng didn't expect that this Nanyue Mansion would become like this now.

Originally, I wanted to take Feng Xu to the fishing village to check the situation of the pearl farm.

Now it seems that I am afraid that I will not be able to go.

Just as Ning Pengpeng was thinking about whether to return to Mingzhou Mansion, Ning Laosi received an invitation from Chen Futai.

In addition to Ning Laosi, people in Nanyue Mansion who now have a little family background have all received this invitation.

Anyone who received it, looking at the message above that they were invited to the dinner party, couldn't help but curse the street in their hearts.

After all, this is a method that Chen Futai came up with to collect money in addition to paying taxes and miscellaneous taxes.

That is to invite the rich people of Nanyue Province to the banquet, and then take out his calligraphy and paintings like dogs crawling for auction.

Everyone, if you don't buy a few calligraphy and paintings in your hands, this Chen Futai will not let the banquet end at all.

Ning Pengpeng almost laughed angrily, this is simply Chiguoguo's money grabbing!

Ning Laosi knew that even if he was extremely angry in his heart, he still had to go to this banquet.

Therefore, he could only arrange for his mother to live first, and he prepared a silver ticket to go to the banquet.

Ning Pengpeng shook his head and rejected his arrangement, and went back to the inn directly.

After arriving at the inn, Ning Pengpeng told Feng Xu what he knew.

Feng Xu's face was full of anger, a scholar like him, who had not yet entered the officialdom, hated this kind of corrupt officials even more.

"Isn't he afraid of stirring up public anger?"

"In his eyes, the common people are like ants, how can they be afraid?"

Ning Pengpeng shook his head, then glanced outside the house.

If it is still early today, I am afraid that it will take another two hours for the banquet organized by Chen Futai to start.

Hearing Mrs. Ning's words, Feng Xu was speechless.

The two of them were relatively speechless, and after sitting for a while, Ning Pengpeng took Qing Niang back to the room where she lived.

Ning Pengpeng sat like this, and it took almost a stick of incense before he asked in a low voice.

"Qing Niang, you say, Futai like this, does the one in the capital know?"

Hearing the old lady's question, Qing Niang didn't respond, and she didn't need to respond, after all, the old lady knew better than anyone else to answer.

"If you don't make decisions for the people, it's better to go home and sell sweet potatoes.

Such a corrupt official, it is better to have one less in this world. ”

Speaking of this, Ning Peng closed his eyes and let out a long breath.

If she could, she wouldn't want to do something as extreme.

I don't want to let people do it myself, after all, there will be the possibility of exposing themselves.

When Qing Niang heard the old lady's words, she didn't raise her eyebrows and retreated.

Although she hasn't done what she did before in the past few years, it doesn't mean that she has forgotten all about the past few years.

Back in her room, Qing Niang quickly changed into a night dress, and then waited quietly for dark.

Time passed bit by bit, and Qing Niang's breath seemed to slowly melt into the gradually darkening night.

And the banquet at Chen Futai's mansion is about to begin.

After drinking and having fun first, Chen Futai saw that the people who came all had expressions like dead people in the family, and his heart was suddenly unhappy.

Push the courtesan in her arms to the side, then pull her face down.

"Guys, isn't this giving Chen face?"

When the big guy heard Chen Futai ask like this, he suddenly felt a thrill in his heart, and hurriedly said in unison.

Looking at their sincere and frightened appearances, Chen Futai suddenly lost the mind to have fun again.

Turning his head directly, he frowned and glanced at Master Mao.

Then I heard Master Mao stand up with a smile and clap his hands, and suddenly a group of good-looking maids, holding calligraphy and paintings, walked to the middle of the banquet and formed a circle.

"Since you don't have any intention of having fun, let's get down to business.

Don't say that Lord Ben doesn't give you face, see it, the calligraphy and painting of mine in the hands of these beauties, as long as you shoot it, then this beauty will be given to you! ”

In fact, there were so many women he grabbed in that the backyard was almost overwhelmed.

It's just the right opportunity to send a batch of people you're tired of out.

In addition to selling their calligraphy and paintings, these women are a little bit of a match.

Of course, the most important point is to send people to other people's homes.

Well, it is equivalent to him planting a nail in the homes of these people.

He wasn't afraid that these nails would be disobedient, after all, they all had families.

Ning Laosi didn't expect Chen Futai to play so much?

It's not enough to rob money, but to stuff people back to them, this is treating people as fools?

It's just that the money has already been out, and if people refuse again, won't it offend people!

It's a big deal, after people accept it, they buy a yard outside and throw it inside.

looked at the appearance of everyone pinching their noses and taking out the silver, and then accepting the people.

Chen Futai couldn't help laughing, and the faces of the group of people listening to it turned dark.

It's just that Chen Futai's laughter stopped abruptly.

Master Mao was the closest to Chen Futai, and when he heard Chen Futai's paused laughter, he casually glanced at Chen Futai, and then screamed.

"Assassin...... Assassin...... Come...... Belch......! ”

Before he could shout a second call, a silver light flashed, and like Chen Futai, a dart shot straight into his throat.

He only had time to raise his hand and hold his neck, and then he fell down with a glare.

And Chen Futai was like this, he didn't even have time to raise his hand, and he still had a happy smile on his face.

There was a big hole in his throat shot by a dart, and it was constantly gushing blood, and the smile on his face was so weird.

The people who were invited to the banquet were silent at first, and then they also burst out with shouts for help.

Shouting with them, there are also a group of beautiful maids holding Chen Futai's calligraphy and paintings.

The calligraphy and paintings that were originally held in the hand, like treasures, were discarded on the ground at will and trampled on.

The scene was chaotic, and many people were afraid that the next person to be killed would be themselves, like headless flies, looking for a place to hide.

However, this was Chen Futai's mansion after all, and soon there was a sound of neat footsteps outside the courtyard.

The officers and soldiers in the palace surrounded the entire banquet with people.

"No one is allowed to move, and no one is allowed to kill again!"

Looking at the panicked crowd, the leading official shouted directly.

With his order, the bows and arrows in the hands of the officers and soldiers surrounding everyone were immediately aimed at everyone.

"Lord Tian, help!"

There was one who knew the leader and shouted to him with a sad face and a shaking voice.

Tian Dongyuan didn't pay attention to the rich man who knew him, but kept a calm face, held the hilt of the sword at his waist with one hand, and walked towards Chen Futai on the banquet.

And he also bent down and looked sideways at the position where Chen Futai's corpse was shot by a dart, and looked sideways carefully.

If Chen Futai hadn't raised his head and laughed, it was estimated that this dart wanted to shoot him in the throat, and I am afraid it would be very difficult.
