Xu An immediately said: "These three people have provoked us again and again. Do they really think that we are merciful and merciless people?"
Huang Hua nodded and said: "It's easy to kill them. We can just set up an ambush at the inn. I have investigated these days and found that there is only one first-rate master in Molingbo Mansion, and the most powerful people under Zhang De are only second-rate. We have Zhao
The Wuheheng guards are here and have absolute suppression on them in terms of strength. If there are not enough manpower to set up an ambush, Wang Mazi and others can be called in to help."
"Huang Hua is right!" Xu An raised his arms and said, "The guards I paid for haven't used a knife yet, so they should see blood, right?"
Zhao Cheng pouted and said, "So that's why you want to kill them."
"Brother Xiao, what do you think?"
Xiao Luomu frowned, looking like he was thinking seriously, and said: "It's easy to kill them, but it's more troublesome to deal with the rest."
Xu An said: "The identities of the young prime minister and I are here. They want to assassinate us but we kill them. Even if this matter is brought to the court, they will not take it seriously!"
"This is the reason, but..." Xiao Luomu shook his head and said: "The rhythm of the winery's advancement has been disrupted."
"One is the largest nobleman in the city, one is the actual leader of the county government, and the other is the most powerful businessman in the county. The three of them died, and the aftershocks are not small. Although we can find ways to suppress it afterwards, it is really not good for the wine.
The development of the factory will also affect our follow-up plans."
"So I suggest saving people." Xiao Luomu gave his opinion.
Zhao Cheng smiled and said: "Wen Hu's move seems to be a foolish move made in a hurry, but in fact it has ulterior motives."
Zhao Cheng stood up, glanced at Xiao Luomu and Xu An alternately, and said: "Have you ever thought about it, maybe the cultural guards also know that Liu, Guan, and Zhang will not succeed, and he even hopes that we will kill the three of them instead. This way
Let’s disrupt the rhythm ourselves, and he won’t have to bear the pressure after Xu An and I were killed.”
Xiao Luomu's eyes lit up and he said: "The young Prime Minister is still thinking too far, it is indeed possible!"
Zhao Cheng said: "Brother Xiao is right. Killing them will also affect our follow-up plans. When we go south to Jiangyang County, in the eyes of Jiangyang merchants, we will be thugs who use knives without cooperation. We have a reputation.
If it smells bad, it will be difficult for the chamber of commerce to grow."
Huang Hua was horrified when he heard this and said: "It seems reckless, but actually the plan is long-term. This Wenhu is really smart!"
Zhao Cheng recalled it and sneered: "I don't know if Wen Hu has any brains, but Zuo Xiangfu does have an extraordinary counselor."
After hearing Zhao Cheng's analysis, Xu An also calmed down and said in a deep voice: "It seems that this person cannot be killed."
Zhao Cheng said: "Liu, Guan, and Zhang were held hostage from beginning to end. Their natures are not bad. I can see it in Guan Yi's eyes. He actually wants to serve as an official well. There are also Zhang De, Wang Mazi and
I've told you about him. Do you know why Wang Mazi never came to Hannan City to rob?"
"It is because of this De that he will send money to Wang Mazi and the others every two months. It is equivalent to Zhang De supporting them. Zhang De uses his own way to help his two brothers maintain peace in Hannan City."
"Six months ago, the Yiyuan family in Han Nancheng was massacred, and none of the 173 members were left alive. At that time, no one in the Han Nancheng County government dared to say anything. Even the Jingdong County Sheriff did not announce the matter. Only Liu Da wrote a letter
The court, I hope the court can investigate. Although the court ignored it later, at least Liu Da stood up and was the only light in this bloody massacre."
Zhao Cheng glanced at everyone and said with a smile: "So I think it is not a bad thing for us to put the winery where these three people are."
Xu An nodded and said: "Then save people!"
"No." Zhao Cheng denied Xu An and said, "If you want to save people, you must also kill people."
Xu An picked at his scalp and asked, "You have confused me. Are you going to save me or kill me?"
A cold light flashed across Zhao Cheng's eyes, and Zhao Cheng said with clear murderous intent: "Liu Guan and Zhang's family members must be rescued, and the people who protect them...kill them all!"
…
Mao Shi.
Zhang De came to the door of the inn, and the boy inside quietly walked out and nodded to him, before he waved back.
Liu Da and Guan Yi walked in quickly and quietly with Fan Dao and others. At this time, it was still dark, and there was a heavy crowd of people, about a hundred people.
After entering, there was no command from Zhang De, but hundreds of people walked upstairs from both sides in an orderly manner. Apparently, Zhang De had given them a drill based on the route of the inn in advance.
Two waves of people came to the door, and a group of archers remained downstairs. Liu Guan, Zhang and Fan Dao stood in front of the archers.
"Squeak——"
The door opened from the inside, Zhao Cheng and Xiao Luomu were sitting on the chairs at the round table, and Wu Sisi was lighting a candle behind them.
The three of them looked calm and seemed not surprised at all by the situation outside.
Seeing this, everyone was stunned.
After the door opened, Zhao Cheng could just see Liu, Guan, and Zhang downstairs.
Zhao Cheng said: "Liu Da, Guan Yi, and Zhang De, I told you when I first met you that I admire your three brothers' nature of attaching great importance to friendship, and I also envy your deep brotherhood. From now on, you three have been sincerely with me.
How about cooperation?”
"We brothers work together, and we can cut through gold."
Liu Da clenched his fists tightly, trembling, and said loudly: "Zhao Cheng! Xiao Luomu! I...I'm sorry for you! But I have no choice!"
Zhao Cheng said: "Have you ever thought about it? It feels very uncomfortable to be coerced. If you obey this time, others will treat you like this next time."
"I can't control the next time!" Liu Da shook his head and said, "I don't want to do anything to you! I don't even want to get involved in the struggle of big shots like you! But...but you just chose me!"
Liu Da became excited and shouted: "Why did you choose to come to Hannan City?! Why did the cultural protection choose me?!!"
"Whether I choose to come to Hannan City, or whether the cultural protection chooses you, this is my choice and his. But you should also have your own choice."
"I don't want to choose! I don't want to choose anything!"
As he spoke, Liu Da raised his hand, and the archers behind him stepped forward one after another.
Zhao Cheng said loudly: "Liu Da, once this arrow is shot, you will not be able to look back!"
Liu Da's hands were shaking crazily, and he had never felt his hands so heavy before.
He knew what Zhao Cheng said was right. Once this hand was put down and the arrows were shot out, there was really no turning back.
Zhao Cheng said: "Guan Yi, Zhang De, do you still want to accompany Liu Da to make mistakes? If you take him down now, I won't hold you two accountable afterwards."
Guan Yi took a deep breath, bowed to Zhao Cheng, and said, "I'm sorry."
Zhang De's eyes turned blood red and he shouted: "We brothers live and die together, and share weal and woe!"
"Very good." Zhao Cheng nodded and smiled slightly.
Then Xiao Luomu raised his hand.
"father!!"
A sharp girl's voice sounded from behind the archer. Liu Da's whole body was shaken and he looked behind him suddenly.
"father!!"
"Girl!!"
A girl threw herself into Liu Da's arms.
Immediately afterwards, another old man and a woman ran over.
"Guanyi, my son!"
"Zhang De, you are a pig with a thousand cuts, I am scared to death!"
