Huo Yunqi's stubbornness was expected by Boss Zhu. Such people are indeed indispensable in the world. Some people may succumb to power before death, but there are also people who would rather die together than kneel down.
With a long sigh, Boss Zhu said helplessly: "But Mr. Huo, do you know that if you keep insisting, I'm afraid that the Huo family will be in disaster before the day you let go."
"What do you mean?" Huo Yunqi's expression immediately became serious. The first thing he thought of was that Jin Yiwei planned to use his family as a threat. For a group of shameless guys, this seemed to be a basic operation.
But the truth was far more outrageous than he imagined. Boss Zhu said worriedly: "Mr. Huo, seven days have passed since you were imprisoned. The Huo family outside is already in chaos. They are planning to put you in jail."
Get rescued."
"help me?"
Huo Yunqi was stunned. As the head of the Huo family, he knew very well how strong the family was at this moment. He couldn't even hold back the power of two members of the Imperial Guard, let alone those clansmen who were not as good as him.
Moreover, the experts recruited from the martial arts world are indeed good at fighting and killing, but they are definitely not good at making suggestions. Even these people are mostly lone travelers, and there is no power to help them.
Under such circumstances, the only way for this group of people to rescue him seemed to be to rely on force to fight wildly.
After realizing this, Huo Yunqi's face suddenly became extremely ugly. He had no doubt that if everyone in the Huo family really did this, it would be in vain to give Jin Yiwei an excuse to escape from the rivers and lakes.
He was immediately wiped out by the Jinyi Guards.
The actual situation was quite different from what Huo Yunqi had guessed. In fact, the Huo family initially wanted to rely on their connections to rescue people. However, their upper limit was so high. They wanted to contact Wen Chenyang and the Shangguan family, but even the people couldn't.
Not found.
It seems that they actually still have one way to go, which is to persuade Boss Zhu to come forward to intercede. However, this way is blocked by themselves.
The cause still lies with Huo Yunqi. After the owner of the family was in trouble, the servants who escaped told everyone about the conspiracy between the government office and the Jin Yiwei. Now, Boss Zhu, who originally had an official career, was immediately on guard.
Speaking of which, Boss Zhu is actually happy to see this happen. The Huo family has been able to reach this point all thanks to Huo Yunqi. Once the head of the family falls, the entire Huo family will be overthrown right before his eyes.
He is a businessman, and it is his instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. There is really no need for him to hold on to the Huo family's broken ship, which is obviously about to sink.
In addition, after a long time, Jin Yiwei finally gave him a new order, and Boss Zhu, who did not have to accompany the Huo family to commit crimes, left the Huo family without any regrets and immediately left the Huo family.
The task given to him by Jin Yiwei was very ambiguous, which was to ask him to come to the prison from time to time in the name of visit to convey the matters outside to Huo Yunqi.
Boss Zhu didn't know Jin Yiwei's purpose. He was just following orders. Now that he had received the news that the Huo family was about to be in disaster, Huo Yunqi no longer had the determination to sacrifice his life generously, and his expression became extremely heavy.
"...Mr. Zhu."
After a long silence, Huo Yunqi begged Boss Zhu: "What I have is just a cheap life. Jin Yiwei can take it if he wants it, but I can't watch the Huo family be doomed. Please, sir, please persuade them all to stop."
! Such a great kindness, Rong Yunqi will repay you in the next life!"
Seeing that Huo Yunqi was determined to die, Boss Zhu was shocked. He didn't think that Jin Yiwei wanted him to force the person to death. The other party who took the person back with great fanfare must not just want a cold corpse.
"Master, think twice!"
Boss Zhu looked anxious and said in a painful tone: "To be honest, everyone in the Huo family has already regarded me as an enemy. If I were to persuade them, it would be... difficult."
"How could this be so..."
After Huo Yunqi was stunned, he was as smart as him and immediately understood the reason why Boss Zhu was excluded. He could only sigh and secretly sighed that God's will was like this, so he gave up the idea of ​​sacrificing his life for the time being.
Boss Zhu wanted to say something more, but the guard outside coughed abruptly. He stopped talking, shook his head and sighed, told Huo Yunqi not to let his mind wander, and then left.
From then on, Boss Zhu would enter the cell to visit Huo Yunqi every few days, and the news he brought became worse and worse. Not long ago, everyone in the Huo family even sent a hero post to Jianghuguang to ask for help.
Unfortunately, this move had little effect, because this time Huo Yunqi was captured, and the court's excuse was very convincing. Hundreds of corpses were found in the three families, and the white sheets are still hanging in front of the door. Not to mention that the Yamen suspected the Huo family, and even Jianghu
There are also many people on the Internet who doubt the Huo family.
After all, Huo Tianya's "Pearl and Jade" of Zhujian Villa is at the forefront, and the reputation of the Huo family in the world is very bad.
Even because of the incident at Wangjian Tower, there were quite a few people who had a grudge against the Huo family. At this moment, when this group of people heard that the Huo family was in trouble, it was already morally noble not to add insult to injury. How could they still come to help?
The Huo family had no foreign aid, and there was no news from Wen Chenyang. As time passed, they became increasingly frustrated and planned to take the final step.
Huo Yunqi knew everything that happened outside through Boss Zhu. He heard it in his ears and was anxious in his heart. But now that he was in trouble and imprisoned, there was nothing he could do about it.
Huo Yunqi closed his eyes dejectedly. Is God going to destroy the Huo family here?
Seeing that Huo Yunqi was helpless and could only watch the Huo family step by step into the abyss of despair, Boss Zhu seemed to feel the same way, and so did he. The only difference was that he still had hope.
Huo Yunqi is his hope. If Boss Zhu wants to escape from the control of Jinyiwei and live the rest of his life peacefully, he must drain all the value from Huo Yunqi and the entire Huo family. Only if this matter is resolved as soon as possible can he
There is a possibility of escape.
Thinking of this, Boss Zhu became worried and gritted his teeth and said, "Mr. Huo, do you trust me?"
Huo Yunqi was stunned for a moment, then nodded heavily: "If it weren't for Mr. Zhu, the Huo family would still be surviving in a corner of Dongdu, so I would naturally trust you."
Boss Zhu looked pleased and said, "In that case, I have a plan that may make the Huo family give up their current plans."
Hearing this, Huo Yunqi was overjoyed and hurriedly said: "Sir, please tell me!"
"Young Master has long since put life and death aside. All he cares about is the survival of his family. In my opinion, the only way to get the Huo family to give up risking their lives against the imperial court is to distract them."
Boss Zhu's eyes were solemn and he said in a serious tone: "In addition to the young master himself, the most important thing in the Huo family is the family's secret method that even the Jin Yiwei covets. If at this moment, the secret method suddenly disappears,
It will inevitably prevent them from thinking about fighting the imperial court wholeheartedly."
Boss Zhu's words shocked Huo Yunqi. He quickly understood the other party's thoughts. If this move was successful, it might even directly split the Huo family, but at this juncture, it was still a way to survive by cutting off the tail.
He thought for a long time and finally made up his mind. Huo Yunqi looked at Boss Zhu and whispered: "Among the Huo family, only Ah Qi knows the secret method. Mr. Zhu can go to him for help."
