Chapter 248: Shock and Influence
That night, the county government offices, major families, gangs, sects, and underground forces received news, and Nan'an was shocked.
From the east to the west of the city, from the south to the north of the city, countless fires lit up, gathering into thousands of lights, illuminating the entire Nan'an County City, as if it was a city that never night, covering the stars in the night sky...
Countless people heard about the tragedy of Minghualou, regardless of their status, men, women, old and young, talked all night long and rumored...
There were also all-round mobilizations, mainly soldiers from the county government, disciples of major gangs and warriors from aristocratic families as their auxiliary, and they surrounded the county city all night long, without leaking water. It can be said that the sound of horse hooves and swords sounded, and a solemn atmosphere filled the whole city, as if it was a search for the whole city.
It is reported that that night, Xu Duo, the son of the Xu family in Nan'an, held a banquet on the top floor of the Minghua Building to entertain Fang Xiaohou, the Marquis of Qingning Mansion, who came from Yujingcheng. There were as many as thirty-three people accompanying him, including the two sons of the Meng family and the two true masters of the Huolong Cave. One of them was the niece of the contemporary Fire Dragon True Lord, and the others were the heirs of large and large forces...
Lu Leke is said to be the person with the lowest status at this banquet.
However, only thirteen people survived after Zhu Guangxi's assassination and Minghualou's bloody incident, including the storm center of Fang Xiaohou, which completely cut off the roots of many forces.
Without heirs, how can a force last for a long time?
This is just the people who died on the top floor of Minghua Tower. If there were innocent people around and the guests of Minghua Tower, more than 500 people were killed or injured that night, and their blood flowed into a river, scattered among the ruins of Minghua Tower, like a ghost.
After investigation, I found out that Zhu Guangxi didn't know what method to use to pour out all the guests, restaurant shopkeepers, chefs, and servants under the top floor of Minghua Building. When Minghua Building fell, he became all dead souls.
The economic losses caused are immeasurable. The most intuitive thing is that the old Minghua Building in the county town was demolished. A Minghua Building is worth at least tens of thousands of taels of silver. This does not include all kinds of precious objects in the building, such as calligraphy and paintings, potted plants, decorations, etc.
All nearby shops and houses have been robbed and become ruins. Don’t want to restore them in a short period of time. It will indirectly affect the business of the two streets and have a far-reaching impact...
Zhu Guangxi, a large eunuch who was unknown in Nan'an, directly spread to the whole county in less than one night. In addition to the lowest-class people who were unwilling to make a living, almost everyone knew it. His infamous reputation even made the children stop crying.
The county magistrate Cui Qin directly issued a death order, asking all forces in the city to cooperate with the investigation of Tianxingtang, and to arrest Zhu Guangxi. Those who dare to obstruct and procrastinate will be punished for the same crime.
If it is not possible to do so, I am afraid that a group of people will not be able to sit steadily.
At the same time, the city opened in the middle of the night, and several riders left the city and went to the prefecture with news.
Until dawn, Meng Zhaocai, with the help of Lu Le, left the county government office and slowly returned to Meng's mansion.
Before entering the door, Meng Zhaoruo said something to Lu Le meaningfully.
"This level is not easy to pass."
After saying that, before Lu Le could respond, his originally plain face instantly changed his expression, his back was hunched, and all his spirits disappeared, so he took the lead in entering the door.
Before I could change my clothes, I went to meet Meng Jizu and Meng Hongdao who had not sleep all night, wearing a big, black and white face.
In the lobby, in addition to the brothers Meng Jizu and Meng Hongdao, there are also the Meng Mansion butler Zhong Tao, the second butler Wang Tianlei, the third butler Liu Qiankun, and the fourth butler Yang Jiu, who are divided into two sides of the main seat of the lobby, with their expressions solemn.
With a thud, after entering the door, Meng Zhao walked to the center of the red carpet, then pushed away the support of Lu Le beside him, with pale face and low expression, and kneeled down at Meng Jizu and Meng Hongdao in regret.
Without saying a word, he kowtowed three times in a row, and three times in a row, and the flesh and blood body collided with the metal and stone ground. Soon, it became red and swollen. The red flag was used to combine the power of the Arhat Boy's skills to protect the body, so this head was probably broken.
"My nephew protects his elder brother for being blessed, putting his elder brother in danger and almost died. Please punish him for his elder uncle and third uncle."
If you are determined to stop it, with the innate Qigong cultivation of Meng Jizu or Meng Hongdao, you can definitely control the energy from the air, so that Meng Zhao can't knock down.
However, the two of them did not. They watched Meng Zhao holding his internally injured body and performing this great gift, which was obviously also angry with Meng Zhao.
After three sounds, Meng Zhao felt a flexible and warm true energy holding him up. At the same time, this true energy turned into countless silk threads, drilled into his body from the tiny pores, merged into the meridians, helping him open the blocked areas of the eight extraordinary meridians, warming up the qi and blood, regulating the qi of the five internal organs, and greatly alleviating the damage.
The moment the true energy enters the body, Meng Zhao's dantian moves abnormally, and the eight-sided red flag flags roll up and turn into a sea of fire. The ninth side appears and is illusory, and it is even more concise.
This true energy is of the same clan and origin as the Red Flag Order, and is also higher than the inner breath of the Red Flag that Meng Zhao practiced. Meng Zhao moved her and looked at Meng Jizu without a trace.
He knew the whole article of the Red Flag Order as if he was the most powerful and fierce, as powerful as the sun, burning out some of the killing aura.
At this time, he was as soft as Taoist true energy. It was obvious that Meng Jizu had excellent martial arts skills and had already walked out of his own path and gave this magical power a brand new change.
Moreover, Meng Zhao felt that this change was still in the midst of transformation. If he could really achieve the state of hardness and softness, and yang and yin, Meng Jizu might be able to use this to be promoted to the state of master.
Of course, it is simple to say, but it is extremely difficult to do, and it is just a thought after all.
Cough cough, Meng Zhao's hot chest was like a cool nectar, which was much more comfortable. His tight face also opened, wiped away the blood from the corner of his mouth, looked ashamed, lowered his head and did not speak, looking stubborn and desolate.
"I have known all this matter, it has nothing to do with you. All the reasons are in the fight between the Qingning Marquis' Mansion and the people behind Zhu Guangxi. You are suffering from the fish in the pond, no wonder you."
Meng Jizu finally spoke, but his resolute face was still angry. When Meng Zhao was so sensible, he had no way to vent his mistakes, so he could only press down on his heart and said depressedly.
Meng Xi's injuries are composed of multiple parts. External trauma on the arm can be healed, internal injuries caused by internal organs can also be recuperated. Only the blinded eye and damaged dantian are very troublesome.
It can be said that if Meng Xi had not been born in the Meng family, even if she could survive, she would have become a useless person. Although there is a way to recover, it would not be possible to complete it in just one moment.
Naturally, Meng Jizu was in a very bad mood, and he was even really angry with Meng Zhao.
Of course, when I saw Meng Zhao being seriously injured and was shaking, the anger melted a lot, and I felt guilty in my heart. Moreover, Meng Zhao was also Meng Zhengan's only blood in the world. How could he pursue it cruelly for his own pleasure?
I have to say that Meng Zhao is indeed a cunning person. When he saw Meng Xi’s injury, he figured out the situation he might encounter. He was seriously injured and got the pity of Meng Jizu and escaped the disaster.
This disaster does not mean that Meng Jizu would impose a direct punishment on Meng Zhao, but that he was in a grudge and displeased, thus rejecting and suppressing it.
If you are simply in the emperor's heart, you will naturally be in trouble. If you are disgusted by the king, everything will be in a bad mood and will be plagued by bad luck.
Meng Jizu was in the Meng family, and this was the king. Meng Zhao was now at the time when Jiao Qian was in the abyss, so naturally he didn't want to make Meng Jizu dislike him for nothing.
