Chapter 816

Li Qiufeng hid outside the house, and when he heard Huang Chong say this, he couldn't help but be shocked. He had heard Yin Zhutou and others say that Huang Chong was an honest official and won the respect of the people of Xiuwu County. It was the officials who tried to promote Huang Chong several times, but they were all blocked by the people. But listening to what Huang Chong just said, he may not have the intention of leaving Xiuwu County. It's just that for some reason, he gave up his high-ranking officials and stayed in Xiuwu County. Li Qiufeng felt that everything he saw and heard tonight was strange, and his heart became more and more suspicious.

But I heard Ji Dingzhong say word by word: "Lao Huang, are you dissatisfied with the fact that we want you to stay in Xiuwu County?"

Huang Chong sneered, and said: "What's the use of being dissatisfied? Since your brothers can deign to be the master of the Luoyang Prefect's Yamen and Xiuwu County's Yamen, what else do we have to say? Even if we are asked to be cattle and horses, we have no choice but to admit it!"

His voice fell, but he heard Zhang Baixing snort, and said in his mouth: "Lao Huang, you finally said what was in your heart! It seems that my eldest brother is not wrong, in the past ten years, you have been thinking about it day and night, but you don't want to listen to my eldest brother's orders anymore, and no longer succumb to Xiuwu County." But have you thought about it, if it weren't for my eldest brother's painstaking planning over the years, would we have been able to wipe out the Xu family's evil species in one fell swoop and solve the danger of our five families?

Huang Chong sneered: "Okay, good, your brother has really suspected me a long time ago." In that case, you will kill me and avenge Cai Shi's nephew, Hu Shi's nephew, as well as Yang Shi's nephew and Shi Shi's nephew!"

The more Li Qiufeng listened, the more frightened he became, and secretly wanted to hear the meaning of Huang Chong's words, Ji Dingzhong and Zhang Baixing turned out to be brothers. Moreover, Hu Kun, Huang Chong, Ji Dingzhong, Zhang Baixing and others belong to five families, and these five families have a big enemy family surnamed Xu. Ji Dingzhong has been planning for a long time, and finally wiped out the Xu family. However, Huang Chong was unwilling to be driven by Ji Dingzhong, so he secretly killed the sons of Cai, Hu, Yang, and Shi. It's just that what grievances and entanglements there are between these people, Rao is Li Qiufeng is thoughtful, but he can't guess at all.

At that moment, another person's voice came from the room. I only heard this man say in a deep voice: "At the moment, the merits are not clear, what is the use of you arguing around? The most important thing is to find out who is the murderer, otherwise there will be infighting, and I am afraid that I will be taken advantage of, and it will be bad." ”

Li Qiufeng listened to the person who spoke was Han Qusi, the prefect of Luoyang, and secretly thought in his heart that this person surnamed Han was quite smart, not as aggressive as Zhang Baixing and Ji Dingzhong.

I only heard Hu Kun sneer: "The murderer? The murderer has been identified! It is Lord Huang Chonghuang, who is sitting in front of us, still with an unchanging face and a heartbeat!"

Huang Chong said in a deep voice: "Catch the thief and take the stolen goods, and catch the traitor and take the double." You say I'm a murderer, show up the evidence!"

Hu Kun shouted: "Hand over that cheap girl in your family, we can naturally find evidence!"

When Huang Chong heard him insult his beloved daughter, he was furious and said sharply: "The surname is Zhao, I read that you lost your only son, and behaved perversely under sadness, so I endured it again and again." But don't put your nose on your nose and say nothing! Otherwise, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people!"

Li Qiufeng thought to himself, although this Lord Huang was strict with Huang Xu, he treated her so well. At this time, when he heard Hu Kun insulting Huang Xu, he was so angry that he even said Hu Kun's surname wrongly.

I only heard Han Qusi say: "What are you two doing, why did you even say your original surname, aren't you afraid that things will leak out?"

When Li Qiufeng heard this, his heart sank, and he secretly thought that Huang Chongfang did not say Hu Kun's surname wrong in a hurry, but because Hu Kun was originally surnamed Zhao. Previously, these people had also mentioned the five families of Nie, Lu, Zhao, Du, and Hua, and they only guessed that the Hua family was related to the Hua family in the capital, but they had no clue about the other four. At this time, listening to Huang Chong and Han Qusi, I knew that Hu Kun's original surname was Zhao. So who are the other four?

I only heard Hu Kun say loudly: "The Xu family has been destroyed, so we don't have to be scared anymore." However, the great enemy is gone, and the civil strife has risen again, and he is only afraid that the disaster will cause Xiao Wall, and someone wants to get rid of us all for his own selfish interests, so that he can sit back and relax, and from now on, the high-ranking officials will be just around the corner. ”

When he said this, he paused for a moment, and then said sadly: "Brother Du, did you say?"

Li Qiufeng listened intently, wondering who the "Brother Du" in Hu Kun's mouth was.

But there was silence in the room, and no one spoke for a long time. In the end, Ji Dingzhong's voice came: "Old Hu, you don't have to be so angry. Hu Shinephew was killed, and he really doesn't have a clue at the moment, and it can't be said to be Lao Huang's hand. Although the Xu family was wiped out by us in one fell swoop, we can't put our swords and guns into the warehouse at the moment, and let the horses go to Nanshan. It is necessary to guard against fish that slip through the net and secretly retaliate. Don't forget, during the period from Meng Yuan to Zheng, our ancestors also found the hiding place of the Xu family in Hejian Mansion and killed more than 100 members of the Xu family. originally thought that the Xu family would be overturned, but he didn't expect that the third child of his family would have an illegitimate child outside. Twenty years later, this person secretly killed the patriarch of our five families, and almost wiped out our five families. If it weren't for my Nie Clan ancestor to turn the tide, how could we still be alive in the world?"

His voice fell, but he heard Zhang Baixing say: "My eldest brother said it well. Back then, the ancestors of my Nie family destroyed the tricks of the Xu family, so that the five of us could continue. Today, my eldest brother cleverly planned to find out the Xu family hiding in Haizhou, and with the help of pirates, the Xu family was wiped out in one fell swoop. In the past hundreds of years, the five of us have respected my Nie family, because the five families have faced the critical moment of life and death several times, and they are all the mainstay of my Nie family, turning the tide. Today's matter, you few don't follow my eldest brother's idea and kill each other, have you forgotten the fate of the Hua family?!"

After Zhang Baixing finished speaking, no one in the house answered. After a while, I heard Zhang Baixing say: "Since you entered this house, you have been making a lot of noise, but no one listened to my eldest brother. Do you know you're wrong now?"

But Huang Chong sneered, and said in his mouth: "What's wrong with me? Can I let others frame me and not even say a word of explanation?!"

Zhang Baixing said angrily: "Lao Huang, I have been by your side for the past few years, and I have seen that you have been depressed all day long, and I am quite dissatisfied with my eldest brother. Do you think that you are from Kejia on the right path, and you are bent on going to the capital to be a big official, and you resent my eldest brother for letting you stay in Xiuwu County and be a small magistrate, yes or no?"

Huang Chong said in a deep voice: "Your brother did not hesitate to deign to be the little master of the prefecture and county for the sake of the great affairs of our five families, and asked me to be a magistrate, that is to exalt me, how can I have any dissatisfaction? You have been by my side for seven or eight years, just because you are afraid that I will spoil your brother's affairs and look at me closely. It's just that you think that I am worried every day because I am trapped in Xiuwu County and can't be a bigger official, that really takes me too lightly. I have no intention of officialdom for a long time, I just want to take Xu'er to find a quiet place to live in seclusion. I've been so tired and annoyed all these years. Now that the Xu family no longer exists, I don't have to stay in Xiuwu County anymore. Please also ask your brothers to raise their noble hands and let me take Xu'er to retreat to the mountains and forests, which can be regarded as my reward for my hard work in Xiuwu County for more than ten years. ”

His voice fell, but he heard Zhang Baixing say: "This is not good. At present, although the Xu family is destroyed, but Hu Shinephew, Cai Shinephew, Shi Shinephew, and Yang Shinephew have been killed one after another, and before the matter is clarified, we still perform our own duties, find out the murderer, and avenge the four nephews. And we have to confirm that the Xu family really didn't slip through the net, so that we can sit back and relax. You want to hide now, but I'm afraid that there are some things that you can't tell clearly!"

Hu Kun echoed on the side: "Master Zhang is right. Before the murderer is investigated, no one should want to leave Xiuwu County!"

Huang Chong laughed angrily, and said, "Okay, okay, you guys are joining forces to take my life." Those gold, silver and jewels in Fengmen Village are really capable of killing. In the past few hundred years, for these gold, silver and jewelry, three or four thousand people have died in the five families of Nie, Lu, Zhao, Du, and Hua, plus those who died in the Xu family, I am afraid that the number of people killed by these gold, silver and jewelry is no less than five thousand, and now it is finally our Du family's turn. You don't have to make any excuses to cut me apart as soon as possible!"
