Compared with the many strong men in Lingwu City who valued Meng Zhao's miraculous skills, they were even more shocked by the content of his words when they faced Zhang Zhichong and Xiao Fengtang who were not far away.
The eight major crimes and the twelve minor crimes are nothing, but the first major crime is colluding with the southern rebels, or discovering and verifying it together with the Yanping County Prince's Mansion. This is really a big deal. p>
Zhang Zhichong, who was originally conceited and calm, suddenly lost all color and became as white as paper. The hands behind him squeezed violently, invisibly crushing the air in his palms, but no movement was made.
It can be seen that despite the turmoil in his heart, he still has enough sense to suppress his strange behavior.
So, is there anything involved in cooperating with Gao Yingzhong and Luan Xiaojie in the south, selling and delivering supplies to them?
It is true. Although Xiao Feng Tang has not been in business for a long time, he has indeed made a large amount of profits from this business. The huge profits are even more than what Xiao Feng Tang usually earns from its total property in a year.
Pure huge profits.
However, cooperation is just cooperation, and the purpose is not to overthrow the imperial court. The original intention of him and some senior officials of Sao Feng Hall is just to make more money through this, with no other intention.
As for what it is, colluding with the rebels and having evil intentions, it is a completely irreconcilable relationship.
But, sometimes, it doesn't matter what people think, and others don't care. Others only care about how you do it.
Actions are often more convincing than words, which is a relatively common understanding.
Even if Zhang Zhichong led Xiaofeng Hall, he didn't have that intention, but he did such a thing. Even with eight mouths, he couldn't explain clearly.
What does it mean to have yellow mud on your crotch? It’s either shit or shit, it’s the same thing.
However, this cannot be blamed on others. It was because they themselves were too greedy that they led to today's catastrophe.
"Junior brother, what should we do? Meng Zhao and Beitang Ang know about that matter. It can't be justified. Otherwise, let's leave!"
Among the five innate strong men behind Zhang Zhichong, one of them was a sturdy man with a beard, his arms were thick and his muscles were as big as the knots of a python, and he sent a message to Zhang Zhichong with waves in his eyes.
The innate people present today are all die-hard confidants of the Zhang family. They have studied in the same school and have had a deep relationship for many years. They all have a pure relationship between seniors and brothers, and they are not even much different from full brothers.
In this case, only they dare to say it and make suggestions.
Not only do I want to save my own life, but I also want to ensure Zhang Zhichong’s safety.
Those petty crimes of bullying men and dominating women are actually nothing. In this land of China, which family can really rise up suddenly without taking a single life?
It's impossible and unrealistic. There are too many men who steal and prostitute women.
But now they are charged with colluding with the southern rebels, rebelling against the country, and rebelling against the imperial court. This crime is too serious. It is so heavy that even the first-rank officials of the imperial court cannot afford it. They are in the local city.
Let alone a domineering character.
Therefore, the best way to deal with it now is to find a good opportunity to break out of Lingwu City. There is always a place for them in the vast world.
Not to mention that knowledgeable people have already seen that there are signs of great chaos in the current Dayong Dynasty and the land of China. Even if there is no chaos in the north, they can still flee to the south and join Gao Yingzhong and Luan Xiaojie.
Anyway, they have already been beaten as rebels and traitors, so don’t continue to hold on to them, just sit down and take revenge on Dayong and that’s it.
He is not the only one who has this idea. In fact, several other innately powerful people also have general thoughts.
Seeing the army heavily surrounding them in the Sao Feng Main Hall, the densely packed soldiers could not be seen to the end.
Looking at the appearance and strength of his army, they are as fierce and fierce as wolves and tigers. Even if his disciples are doubled, they cannot be the opponent of Yang Wujun.
And according to his estimation, the Yangwu Army dispatched this time did not even have half of the troops. Even if the stalemate could be maintained now, he would be trapped to death as time went by, and Meng Zhao still had a steady stream of reinforcements. In the end,
It’s already doomed.
Therefore, what his senior brother said makes sense and is the only possible way to save oneself.
However, he was not willing to give in. He was really not willing to give up. He just threw away the hard work of two generations.
Zhang Zhichong's father, named Zhang Kuan, was born in a run-down sect in the south. When he was sixteen, he personally gave his fiancée to his master, and then he took out the sect's undisclosed secret from his hands.
Develop strong martial arts.
At the age of twenty, Zhang Kuan became successful in martial arts. Late one night, he poisoned and killed his master and his ex-fiancée, who had become his master's wife. He also took away all the treasures of the sect and disappeared without a trace.
He reappeared, already incognito, and came from the south to the north. In Yanzhou, he defected to a force called Huamian Valley, and became one of the male favorites of the owner of Huamian Valley, and was highly favored.
After he secretly learned the unique skills of the master of Huamian Valley, he took the trick again and wiped out all the people in Huamian Valley. He regained his original name and came to Lingwu City to work hard.
】
At that time, Zhang Zhichong was not yet born, and Zhang Kuan created a family fortune with one punch, and the name of Xiaofeng Hall was first established.
Time flies, more than forty years have passed, and Xiaofengtang is now a top-notch local force in Lingwu City.
There may not seem to be many innate warriors, but in fact, Zhang Kuan taught, polished, and trained his juniors and disciples bit by bit. They are truly powerful men who can be used and can be killed.
This family fortune is really not easy to come by. It is equivalent to Zhang Kuan's dirty work in those years, the looted treasures, and the secret martial arts skills.
It’s even more than that, because Zhang Zhichong himself has paid too much for Xiaofeng Hall. After so many years of hard work, so many years of struggle, as well as the huge wealth and connections, how can he just throw it away so easily?
No, he must not do this. At least, he must try harder.
"Nonsense, General Meng, my Zhang family has lived in Lingwu City for more than 40 years. From my father to Zhang, I have always been law-abiding, sacrificing my head and blood for Dayong and the royal family. I have never done anything.
Have you ever done anything illegal?
The name of my Zhang family is well known throughout the city.
Not long ago, there was a severe snowstorm in the north. My Zhang family provided money, food, medicinal materials, and cotton wool to treat the victims.
Not long ago, the county prince's palace proposed to form a husband, and I, Xiaofengtang, without any excuse, selected nearly 400 brave and tough men and sent them to the army. They are now under your command, General Meng.
There are more good deeds and more benevolent deeds. You don’t know it, but everyone in Lingwu City knows it.
Such a heart of Chicheng can be learned from heaven and earth.
General Meng, how dare you say that my Zhang family and my Xiaofeng Hall have colluded with the southern rebels!
General, please don’t be deceived by the insidious villain, and let me, Sao Fengtang, be innocent!”
