The people who came were Lin Xiuran and Lin Zixian.

Nangong Chen gritted his teeth and spit out the names of the two: "Wu Xiuran, Wu Zixian!"

Nangong Chen naturally recognized them, and at the same time, he also felt cool and cool in his heart, he knew that there was no one who didn't shed blood when these two people were doing things, and it was someone else's blood!

He knew the ruthlessness of the two very well, and just wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Lin Xiuran: "Hey, the head of the family doesn't need to say much, we are just acting on orders on this trip, I hope everyone can cooperate a little." ”

"General Wu said that my family secretly researches high-risk weapons, is there any evidence?" Nangong Chen said in a deep voice.

"Wow, but when I found them, those people resisted to the death, and they didn't listen to them, and in desperation, General Ben had to send them on his way himself. Lin Xiuran said with a "helpless" face.

...... "You're killing people, aren't you?"

"Dare to ask General Wu, who proposed these two choices?"

"You're asking the right person, the first choice was proposed by my sister, and the second choice is naturally me. "Lin Xiuran is kind and kind.

The purpose of the first choice is mainly to exploit and squeeze the Nangong family, if they have to hand over half of the total profits every year, then there will be no surplus money to support the training of martial arts.

After all, it takes a lot of money to practice martial arts, martial arts cheats, medicinal materials to replenish qi and blood, replacement of weapons, etc., these are all costly, and it costs a lot of money.

This will make the Nangong family's martial arts decline, and at the same time, it can also increase the financial revenue of the imperial court, which is simply killing two birds with one stone.

As for the second option, it is simple and clear, it is directly to uproot the thorn in the eye of the Nangong family, once and for all, it depends on how they choose.

These Dao Nangong Chen quickly thought of it, and couldn't help but shudder all over his body, this is to force his Nangong family to death!

Why don't you fight with them? Nangong Chen's heart suddenly appeared this idea.

"The head of the family should be an understanding person, I won't say it, be cautious, there are five thousand troops outside, I hope the head of the family will decide quickly, I am reasonable, the spears of the soldiers are unreasonable." Lin Xiuran was "kind" and "persuaded".

Lin Zixian didn't speak, so she asked someone to find a stool to sit down and look at Lin Xiuran for a long time.

“！”

Hearing Lin Xiuran say this, Nangong Chen was taken aback, and he quickly made a decision in his heart.

......

"Father-in-law, the 8.5 billion dinks (a monetary unit of the Dalin Dynasty) that the Nangong family just handed over have been handed over to the imperial court, and the remaining 500 million have also entered our family's treasury. Lin Zixian said below.

Lin Xiuran didn't follow, and he didn't understand why he went, he didn't say, and Lin Zixian didn't ask. They usually only use the Whisper of the Heart when they are fighting, and they don't usually use it much.

"Now it's okay, I want to see if other martial arts families dare to ignore my great court. Wu Zhizhong nodded.

This time it is not only aimed at the Nangong family, but also to make an example of chickens and monkeys, and improve the control of the imperial court over domestic forces.

However, this method should not be used too often, otherwise it will cause the opposite effect, such as forcing them to jump off the wall or something.

"Oh, by the way, Xian'er, you take out 10 million dinks to our soldiers, and give more to those who participated in this operation. ”

It is not unreasonable for Wu Zhizhong to be supported by the soldiers, and knowing how to win the hearts of the people is only one of the means.

"Got it, father. Lin Zixian gave up.

After finishing the trivial work, Lin Zixian went home.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw Lin Xiuran shirtless, and he was about to walk into the room, obviously just coming back.

"What are you doing?"

"It's been a long time since I've been fighting, so I'm going to find some people to talk to. Lin Xiuran grinned.

"Really, it's a stinky sweat, hurry up and wash it. Lin Zixian pinched her little nose and pretended to be disgusted.

"Oh. ”

"Hurry up, I'm going to accompany my father-in-law to an important banquet later. Seeing that he still didn't move, Lin Zixian urged.

"Uh, can you not go?"

"Of course not, I don't want to go, it's too troublesome. ”

Lin Zixian frowned her good-looking willow eyebrows, what she didn't like the most was this kind of social activity.

......

Shi family.

At this time, people at the door of Shi's house came and went, so it was not lively.

Today is a banquet where one of Wu Zhizhong's subordinates has been promoted.

"Oh, General Wu, Gongzi Wu, Miss Wu, Steward Wang, you are here!"

The old housekeeper of the Shi family suddenly saw the four Wu Zhizhong who were coming towards him, and the faint smile on his face turned into a big smile, and he hurriedly invited them into the house.

Wu Zhizhong had always had a good relationship with his soldiers and officers, and the officers who came to the banquet greeted them cordially.

"General, we haven't seen each other for three years!" said an old man with a broken right arm and a lame left foot, and said excitedly.

"Lao Shi, you are now retiring, and I will have to work hard for many more years. Wu Zhizhong patted the old man on the shoulder.

The old man is Shi Jingyuan, who was once Wu Zhizhong's soldier and was led by him for more than ten years. Now not long ago, he fought with foreign armies, broke it, and made great contributions, but he broke his hands and feet, and could only retire with the rank of second rank.

"The general laughed, hey, these are two nephews?" Shi Jingyuan looked at Erlin Dao.

"yes, it's my two boys. Wu Zhizhong patted Erlin.

The two understood in seconds, and said in unison: "Grandpa Shi is good." ”

"Hey~ You're okay too. Shi Jingyuan smiled and nodded.

"Lao Wang, all these years, don't come to harm!" Shi Jingyuan punched Wang Shijie.

"You too, Lao Shi!" Wang Shijie also punched him back.

"Lao Shi, I see that everyone is here, let's not be so polite, the banquet can officially begin. ”

"What the general said is very true. ”

"Everyone, be quiet, today is my Shi's celebration party, and it is also a retirement party, everyone eats and drinks well. ”

"If you have any difficulties in the future, you can trouble me, an old bone. Shi Jingyuan arched his left hand and said loudly.

"General Shi, you're polite, it should be us rising stars who are here to help you!" said a young officer.

"That's it, how can people cause you trouble. ”

There are those who shoot Shi Jingyuan's sycophants, and there are also those who are sincere.

There is only one third-grade civil official on the civilian official's side, which is enough to save face.

The people of the royal family also came, and he was a prince, ranked eleventh, named Lin Yan.

However, after a few polite exchanges with Shi Jingyuan, he sat alone at a table and watched quietly, he should have come to make soy sauce.

Lin Zixian frowned, as if she had discovered something bad.

Wang Shijie personally poured wine for Wu Zhizhong, which was usually like this, because Wang Shijie had a lot of research on poison, and he could quickly determine whether the wine was poisoned or not.

Wu Zhizhong and Wang Shijie have known each other for more than 20 years, and the latter has saved him many times.

Therefore, he won Wu Zhizhong's trust, and Wang Shijie never disappointed him.

Wang Shijie's thumb touched the wine surface slightly, and Shi Jingyuan next to him saw it: "Old Wang, you are not kind, you actually let the general drink the wine that touched your finger." ”

"Hehe, the master doesn't mind. Wang Shijie said with a smile.

"Well, it's an old problem, he can't change it if he wants to, hahaha!" Wu Zhizhong didn't explain that it was Wang Shijie testing drugs.

Although he knew that Shi Jingyuan would not harm him, it did not mean that others would not harm him, and it was always right to be careful.

Wang Shijie handed the wine glass to Wu Zhizhong, who took it with his left hand, his right hand was used to prevent possible accidents, and his right waist was hiding a soft sword.

Lin Xiuran also frowned.

"Father-in-law, wait a minute!" Lin Zixian grabbed Wu Zhizhong's hand holding the wine glass.

Wu Zhizhong didn't think it was angry, and said with a smile: "Xian'er, what's wrong?"

"Father-in-law, wine is poisonous. ”

Wu Zhizhong is now their backer, and it is much more convenient to rely on him to do tasks, so Lin Zixian can't let him be poisoned yet.

As soon as Lin Zixian said this, Shi Jingyuan and Wang Shijie both showed displeasure on their faces. This is a clear distrust of them, how can it be justified!

Wu Zhizhong also put away his smile: "Xian'er, is this true?"

"Seriously!" Lin Zixian nodded seriously.

"Father-in-law doesn't believe it, then let Steward Wang drink it and take a look. Lin Xiuran said with a smile.

Wu Zhizhong felt that his child would not be untargeted, so he said, "That's okay, Lao Wang, you came to drink it." ”

Wang Shijie's face was silent, he took the wine glass, and was about to drink it.

Suddenly, Wang Shijie poured the wine glass at Wu Zhizhong, and took out a dagger in his right hand and stabbed Wu Zhizhong!

"Huhuhu......"

At the same time, the sound of breaking wind also sounded next to Lin Xiuran and the others.

"Dingding......

No one could see how Erlin took out the knife, but he saw the knife light flickering, and the three of them flew out upside down.

These Assassins were armed with daggers, as weapons were not allowed at this kind of banquet, but no one would risk offending others by hiding some short blades on their bodies.

Among the three people who flew out upside down, two were officers who went to the banquet, and the other was Wang Shijie!

"Ahem!"

Wu Zhizhong was injured, and at such a close distance, even if he was one realm stronger than Wang Shijie, he was stabbed by the latter without defense.

The three of them did not hesitate, and if they couldn't strike a blow, they were about to run away.

"Boom!"

Almost all of the people present were officers, and after being surprised for a moment, they reacted quickly and got up and ran over.

"Bang bang bang!"

Wang Shijie was stopped by Erlin, and the remaining two were surrounded by everyone who reacted.

Lin Xiuran and Lin Zixian stepped forward together.

"Zheng!" ×2

"Ahh

Erlin cut off the arm of one of the assassin officers respectively, and then Lin Xiuran quickly went over and twisted his chin with one hand, and blood immediately flowed profusely.

"Bones!"

A black pill fell from the man's mouth and rolled to the ground.

This is the two of them who found out that they had poison in their mouths and tried to catch someone they could subdue.

"Puff puff!"

The other two had already bitten the poison pill and were killed directly, and they were decisive.
