Chapter 200: Attacking the Heart
Zhou Shigong has completely lost patience with Zhou Shuyi.
Mrs. Ma still has the kindness to raise him, Zhou Shuyi is just a younger sister who has been married for nearly 20 years, and she may not be able to communicate with him twice in a year, how much brotherhood can she have with him?
In the early years, she encouraged him to take the examination in advance, which led to him only being admitted to the same jinshi, and his career was not smooth; A few days ago, she teamed up with Mrs. Ma, and the mother and daughter used him to deceive the glass formula of the Northwest Frontier Army, and put him in the dilemma pointed out by Qianfu for personal gain; Now he knows that she has long had the idea of betraying her mother's family, trying to marry Sun Ge Lao, and even plotting to kill her husband's nephew in order to serve Sun Ge Lao, and dragging her mother's relatives into the water. All this has completely eroded Zhou Shigong's only remaining affection for this sister.
If he was told to do it for the sake of his family's reputation and the future of his children and grandchildren, he would probably hesitate whether to send Zhang Pinggui, the killer, to the Zhenguo Mansion.
But...... For Zhou Shuyi?
He wants her to die!
If she dies, she can avoid being involved in the open and secret struggle between the Sun family and the Zeng family of the Yingchuan Marquis Mansion, then he, as a brother, will definitely be happy to send his sister on the road!
It's a pity that Zhou Shuyi is now far away in the capital, and she is already a wife of the Zeng family. Whenever she appeared in front of Zhou Shigong at this moment, he would slap her with all his might, so that she would know who was the head of the third room of the Zhou family!
Since she has completely ignored the future of her mother's family, then don't blame her mother's family for no longer caring about her life, death, honor and disgrace!
If Zhou Shuyi really committed any crimes in the past and was publicized again, how the Zhou clan would react, Zhou Shigong didn't know, but the third room of the Zhou family would definitely not recognize this rebellious girl again! There is no need for the cousins and sisters-in-law of the Guogong Mansion in Changfang Town to speak, they will open the ancestral hall first to ask for a genealogy and write off Zhou Shuyi's name. From now on, whether she is dead or alive has nothing to do with the Zhou family!
Zhou Shigong left angrily. Haijiao looked at Zhang Pinggui and said with a smile: "You have been living in this house for the past few days, don't you know that the head of the Zhou family's third room has fallen out with Mrs. Ma?" As an accomplice of Mrs. Ma, Mrs. Zeng has long been rejected by her aunt and grandfather. You threaten your aunt and grandfather with her reputation? It can be seen that you have exhausted your donkey skills. ”
"Second Mrs. Zeng is not a smart person." Zhang Pinggui snorted coldly, "All her conspiracies and tricks were discussed with Mrs. Ma. If her crime is known to the world, Mrs. Ma will not want to escape! Everyone knows that Master Friday is a dutiful son who obeys his stepmother's words. Who would believe that he knew nothing about the crimes of Madam Ma's mother and daughter? ”
Zhou Mashi angrily reprimanded: "You villain! What nonsense? If you had known, you wouldn't have been kept in the dark for so many years! Now that he has taken the initiative to denounce the mother and daughter, who can pour dirty water on his head?! ”
Zhang Pinggui chuckled: "Fifth wife, you have only seen Mrs. Ma's methods every day, do you think she is the most shrewd and vicious person in the world?" It's a pity that there are more people who are smarter than her! I have my own way of convincing Zhen Guogong. But when the time comes, don't regret it, hand me over today. He smirked, "As long as I'm no longer under your control, do you expect to stop me from saying what you don't want to hear?!" ”
Zhou Ma gasped and trembled with anger. Zhou Yijun hurriedly helped her sit on the chair and patted her chest and back for her, worried that she would faint before she took a breath.
Haitang stared at Zhang Pinggui twice, pouted, and said, "You said so many scaring words, but you just wanted to persuade us not to hand you over to the Duke of Zhenguo." It can be seen that in your heart, you are not afraid of anyone in the third room of the Zhou family, but you are very jealous of the Zhenguo Mansion. In that case, we will hand you over all the more. The people in this family can't deal with you, and the Zhenguo Guild will have a way to deal with you. What if you talk nonsense in front of Zhen Guogong? Zhenguo Gong has been sitting in the northwest for decades, and has experienced countless wars and battles in his life, who has not seen it? What treacherous tricks haven't you heard of? Can he still be fooled by your little killer? You really think too highly of yourself, and you underestimate Zhen Guogong too much! ”
Haijiao also smiled at Zhang Pinggui on the side: "How many Zhou family members have you seen?" After knowing a few useless Zhou family members, I thought that the Zhou family was all such waste? If the Zhou family is such a fool, how can they guard the Northwest Frontier for decades? Are you still quite confident in yourself, thinking that you are smart enough to coax Zhen Guogong? Zhenguo Gong has never really fallen into the disadvantage of the cunning Hu Khan King, who do you think you are?
"If you really have such a powerful ability, why don't you go to the frontier to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions? No matter what your background is, if you have military merits, you can be an official and get ahead. If you are really smarter than the Hu people, and even if you win battles, even if you are a general, wouldn't you be a hundred times better than you being a shady killer? But you didn't, did someone live up to your ingenuity, or did you only have the ability to be a killer, but you thought you were the reincarnation of Kong Ming? ”
Zhang Pinggui glared at him fiercely and didn't say anything.
Haitang smiled and said to Haijiao: "Brother, you speak tactfully, so piercing people's hearts and lungs, what if you make people angry?" We also hope that he can be honest in front of Zhenguo Gong and not waste too much time. After all, it's good for everyone. Zhen Guogong can grasp the situation as soon as possible and come up with a way to deal with it, he can also make the Zhou family less angry, and maybe he can curry favor with them, and when the Sun family sends someone to kill him, there are also people who are willing to protect him. ”
Hai Jiao smiled: "If he is really as smart as he claims, even if it is just a little clever, he should know what kind of approach is right." If he really wants to be a loyal dog and cover up for the Sun family to the end, or push out the second wife Zeng to be a substitute for the dead ghost, but he doesn't say a word about the real mastermind behind it, we can't deal with him.
"Who would expect the emperor to believe the incriminating evidence brought out by the Zhou family and dismiss him from his position as a confidant? There is no need to make trouble in front of the emperor, you just need to let the Marquis of Yingchuan know the truth. I don't believe that Mrs. Zeng can do bad things without showing a trace. As long as she shows her feet, and the Zhou family no longer protects her, can Yingchuan Hou spare her life? In the case of life and death, she naturally knew what to say to mitigate her guilt. A killer can die for the Sun family, but can the second wife of Zeng? Her testimony is much heavier than a killer. ”
Begonia clasped hands: "I see! The emperor doesn't believe the testimony of the killer, can he still not believe his henchman Yingchuan Marquis? As long as the Marquis of Yingchuan hates Sun Ge Lao, he will naturally have the opportunity to retaliate in the future. And the Northwest Frontier Army...... Just sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight. ”
She tilted her head at Zhang Pinggui: "Did you hear that?" You're not as important as you think. We've got you covered, we've guessed your true purpose, and you're useless. No matter what you say in front of Zhen Guogong, it can't change the future of the Marquis of Yingchuan and Sun Ge Lao against each other, at most it is just about how long you can live. ”
Zhang Pinggui's face turned a little pale. Although he was still trying to make an appearance that he didn't care, whether it was a reef or a begonia, he could see that his heart was already shaking.
Zhou Yijun sat next to Zhou Ma and interjected softly: "Isn't there a murder case on this person?" After Tang Bozu finished asking, he was thrown into the government prison. If anyone really comes to kill him, it will be his life! ”
Haitang smiled: "Yes, of the eight killers who committed the murder at the beginning, six were killed in prison, and it is nothing to add one more of them, anyway, there is still a living mouth." If they set up a trap, they might be able to find out how many of their accomplices are lurking in Chang'an. The sooner we dig out the inner ghosts, we can also feel at ease as soon as possible. ”
Zhang Pinggui is really colorless now.
