Chapter 755: Turtle in the Urn (10,000 words for monthly votes)
"You think...could the assassin be found by Fang Jun?"
Somehow, Wang Xue'an suddenly said such a sentence.
Everyone was stunned...
Seeing everyone's eyes turning over, Wang Yu'an swallowed subconsciously and said nervously: "Think about it, according to what Mr. Xiao said, the assassin is extremely skilled, and Fang Jun is not an enemy of Yihe at all, but
Instead of stabbing him to death with a sword, he kept silent, and even allowed Fang Jun to speak impassionedly, thus overturning the negative image brought about by the rumors in one fell swoop. He allowed his assassin to leave on his own in the street, which was very popular.
, with the ancient style of benevolence, which greatly changed the people's perception of it."
Zhu Qu shrank his neck and reacted quickly, following Wang Yuan's train of thought and said: "If this assassin is really the work of Fang Jun, it's not just as simple as clearing himself of suspicion..."
They are all men of great intelligence and scheming. Zhu Qu said this. Is there anything unclear to everyone?
Changsun Man had already changed his expression and said: "Doesn't this mean...if any of us are killed in the future, Fang Jun can blame it all on the assassin. It was the assassin who discovered that we were spreading rumors, so he took revenge and killed us? Not only
In this way, we still have to bear the reputation of a famous general who spreads rumors to slander important officials of the imperial court and suppresses bandits..."
Everyone was not calm anymore.
The more I think about it, the more likely it is, and the more I think about it, the more frightened it becomes!
This, this, this...how many insidious people can come up with such a vicious plan of "borrowing a knife to kill someone"? Not only did he borrow a knife to kill someone, but the knife was still in his hand in the end, but no one could see it...
Xiao Ming suddenly changed his expression and said: "Not good!"
Several people were already frightened, and they were frightened by this move. Zhu Qu hurriedly asked: "Why is it bad?"
Xiao Ming said: "If the guess is really accurate, then how could Fang Jun gather his soldiers around the navy camp to make sure everything is safe? Maybe the navy's scouts would have been sent out long ago to search for the whereabouts of the lost wood.
…”
Everyone's expression changed again.
Wang Yu'an was the timid one and said in panic: "Doesn't that mean... maybe Fang Junjie knows that we have the wood here?"
Changsun Man paused and said: "More than knowing? Maybe that little bastard is already on his way here now! We have made such a big noise, as long as we investigate carefully, how can we not know? No, someone wants to
Take the first step..."
Before he finished speaking, a swath of lights suddenly lit up in the distance in the direction of the river mouth, and they seemed to have completely blocked the river mouth.
Xiao Ming's face turned pale: "It's over, Fang Jun is really here..."
A thief with a guilty conscience. He had stolen the navy's wood and sold it again. Suddenly, the real owner came to kill him. Who could not panic?
The four of them were in chaos, like ants on a hot pot. Changsun Man suddenly pointed his halberd at Lu Xiaoyu and Ji Shiju, and shouted: "Could it be that you two colluded with Fang Jun and informed Fang Jun about our transaction?"
Lu Xiaoyu was startled. It wasn't just these four people present now. There were also many servants not far away. What if he was determined to be a spy and violently harmed others?
He immediately said angrily: "Are you out of your mind and crazy? You and Fang Jun are incompatible with each other, how can you collude with him to plot against you?"
Ji Shiju quickly nodded and said: "That's right, I'm here to do business, and I don't want to have anything to do with Fang Jun! Well, everyone, if these timbers can't be shipped smoothly along the river, the deal won't be considered complete.
, you have to return my money!"
Is there any reason to return the money I received?
Zhu Qu loved money the most, so he retorted: "Fart! Now I have money and goods, or it may have arrived on your ship, and the money has also entered my warehouse, how can it be returned to you?"
Seeing that these two people were still entangled, Xiao Ming said angrily: "Go and tell Fang Jun separately!"
After saying this, he hurriedly called his servants to escort him away along the land route.
The waterway is obviously impassable. The lights that were connected before are getting closer and closer. The huge hull of the Five-Tooth Battleship is already shadowed in the lights. It must be Fang Jun!
If we don't leave now, why don't we wait for Fang Jun to capture them all?
Although given their respective identities, it is expected that Fang Jun would not dare to kill without explanation, but a humiliation is inevitable!
At that moment, the servants of each family were in a mess, escorting their masters to leave.
"Boom, boom, boom!" A deafening sound of gongs came from not far away, and a group of soldiers suddenly rushed out from the darkness. Only when they got closer did they light torches. As the firelight flashed, their armors were shining and their steps were strict, filled with murderous intent!
Xiao Ming saw something bad and gritted his teeth and said: "Everyone holds a weapon and rushes out!"
How could he not want to fall into Fang Jun's hands!
Several servants gathered together, drawing their weapons and making noise, eager to attack the soldiers.
Xiao Ming's face was ashen, knowing that he had entered a trap, he just wanted to escape before Fang Jun arrived, so he strode forward and shouted sternly: "I am the magistrate of Haiyucheng County, and I am here on official business. No matter who you are under,
Get out of the way quickly, otherwise don't blame me for punishing you for causing chaos by shouting at the crowd!"
He originally thought that with his dignity as the county magistrate, he would be able to repel these soldiers, but he didn't expect that it would be better if he didn't make a sound. As soon as he made a sound, there was a sound of swords being unsheathed and bowstrings clashing in the opponent's array, and the front row uniformly displayed their sharp swords.
, the back row had their arrows strung up, and the cold arrow clusters shone coldly under the firelight, covering all of them.
This team was accompanied by Fang Jun in a bloody battle in Niuzhuji. The warriors crawled out from among the dead. At this moment, they were ready for battle. They unsheathed their bows and swords. A strong murderous aura suddenly filled the whole place, just like all the beasts.
The king opened his bloody mouth and bared his sharp fangs!
At the same time, torches were raised from all sides throughout the river bend, all roads were blocked, and the large river bend turned into an earthen urn. The boatmen in the river bend and the domestic servants on the river bank all became turtles in the urn.
You can't escape even if you have wings!
Xiao Ming's men were just a group of domestic servants, who usually acted tyrannically in the streets and markets. Now facing these tough soldiers, they were fighting with each other, and their faces were as pale as dirt. If the master of the house hadn't been standing in front of him, he would have screamed and fled in all directions.
…
But with everything around him blocked, where can he escape?
Xiao Ming also changed his color. Although he had never joined the army, he had some experience. He knew that the pair of warriors in front of him were definitely fierce warriors who would fight for the rest of their lives. Fang Jun not only knew about tonight's action, but also their positions.
Everything is clear, otherwise how could such a group of elite warriors be arranged on his side?
Xiao Ming knew that it would be difficult to escape tonight, but he still refused to give up his efforts. He shouted with his halberd finger: "How brave! You actually point your weapon at the honor of a county. Are you trying to rebel? Why don't you push it away quickly, otherwise
With this report from this official, all nine of your clans will be wiped out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone from the soldiers sneered and said in a strange tone: "The honor of a county? What a big official, oh, you scared me to death..."
Another person said: "Yes, yes, sir, please spare me. Why do you, such a big official, have the same knowledge as us?"
All the soldiers tried their best to ridicule, Xiao Ming's face turned green with anger!
Sure enough, everyone leads what kind of soldiers. Are these soldiers just like Fang Jun, who don't take the court officials seriously?
At this time, someone from the opposite side shouted: "Shut up, Mother Dute!"
Then a tall military general stood out from the crowd and walked directly in front of Xiao Ming. He waited for Xiao Ming with his tiger eyes for a long time before spitting thick phlegm at Xiao Ming's feet with a "poof" sound.
Xiao Ming was so angry that he was trembling all over. He pointed at the general with trembling fingers, unable to speak.
He was born in the Xiao family, had great literary talent, and was a respected figure in the county. How had Xiao Ming ever been insulted like this?
Zhu Qu beside him said angrily: "How dare you be rude to the county magistrate? Don't you want to live anymore?"
The military general sneered: "Who are you trying to scare? When we brothers were in Chang'an, we spent all day either dealing with the marquis or asking for greetings from the Duke of the country. The six ministers and the governors of the three provinces could also see each other from time to time. County Lord?
The county magistrate is a fool!"
When Xiao Ming heard this, his face turned red and he was also secretly frightened.
Suwen Fangjun's subordinates all come from major families in Chang'an. Now it seems that they are all unruly slaves...
The general no longer looked at Xiao Ming, but instead glanced at the group of servants. He raised his right hand high and said, "The general manager has given an order. Everyone should immediately put down their weapons and surrender. Anyone who dares to resist...will not be killed!"
