As Zhao Hongrun issued this order, the Hundreds of Shang Shui Army who came with him immediately began to smash the hall of the North House.
Seeing this, Zhao Wenlin and Zhao Wenfu looked horrified, while Zhao Wenqu rushed towards Zhao Hongrun angrily.
Unfortunately, before he could reach Zhao Hongrun, he was blocked by Zongwei Chu Heng.
Chu Heng, who is tall and thick, is really an outlier among the Wei people who are generally only about eight feet (Su's measurement, about 1.7 meters) tall. He is close to 1 feet tall (more than 1.9 to 2 meters), which is quite a bit taller than Zhao Wenqu.
It is one and a half heads tall, like an iron tower.
I saw him stretching out his right hand, stretching his palm in a blocking posture, and said angrily to Zhao Wenqu: "If you come near my Highness again, I will not be polite!"
However, Zhao Wenqu was so angry at the moment that he couldn't hear him, so he raised his fist and swung it at Chu Heng.
Unfortunately, his fist was easily grasped by Chu Heng. Then, Chu Heng grabbed Zhao Wenqu's belt and actually lifted the latter up like a chicken, raising it above his head.
Then, Chu Heng threw it out.
There was a bang, and Zhao Wenqu's body hit a coffee table. The coffee table collapsed with a bang, and Zhao Wenqu howled in pain.
Seeing this, the soldiers in Zhao's mansion were shocked and quickly gathered around Zhao Wenqu.
"Second Master, are you okay?"
"Second Master?"
Zhao Wenqu, who was dazed after being thrown to the ground, shook his head, then looked at the servants and soldiers surrounding him, and cursed: "What are you doing around me? Why don't you stop these people?!"
"this……"
The soldiers looked hesitantly at the Shang Shui army who was smashing the house, looking at their fully armed equipment, and secretly swallowed their saliva.
They said to themselves: Those are the soldiers of the garrison...
Seeing that the soldiers were still hesitating, Zhao Wenqu cursed angrily: "Why don't you go quickly?!"
The soldiers were shocked, gritted their teeth, and rushed forward.
Seeing this, Zhao Hongrun glanced at them and said calmly: "Anyone who dares to show off his weapon will be regarded by me as an assassin who wants to kill me..."
What does this mean?
In other words, once these soldiers reveal their weapons, Zhao Hongrun will order the Shang Shui Army to kill them on the spot?
What about those Shang Shui soldiers who were carrying spears and beating people everywhere? Didn't they show their weapons?
Brothers Zhao Wenlin, Zhao Wenqu, and Zhao Wenfu all turned red with anger.
The thirteenth son, Zhao Chengxun, who was hiding and watching, was already frightened and speechless by the scene he saw with his own eyes.
Only then did he realize how stupid it was that he and Wang Chen had instigated the county soldiers guarding the city to close the city gate and block King Su not far away from Anling City a few days ago.
This Zhao Hongrun didn't take the Zhao family seriously at all!
"I'm so angry, you bunch of losers!"
Seeing that all the soldiers were so frightened by Zhao Hongrun's words that they did not dare to move, Zhao Wenqu struggled to stand up, grabbed a sword from one of the soldiers, and scolded Zhao Hongrun with a ferocious expression: "Zhao Hongrun, you dare to kill
Me?"
…
Zhao Hongrun stared at Zhao Wenqu for a long time like he was looking at a fool, and said in a funny voice: "I really don't know this, why don't you give it a try?"
While he was speaking, Zongwei Chief Wei Jiao had already drawn the sword from his waist.
After all, it was the Zong Wei who had been with Zhao Hongrun for eight years. Even though he did not know His Highness as well as the original Zong Wei Chief Shen Yu, Wei Jiao understood the deep meaning behind Zhao Hongrun's ridicule.
Zhao Wenlin suddenly saw Wei Jiao's eyes with a faint ferocious light, and his hair stood on end, and he screamed in his heart.
Unfortunately, Zhao Wenqu didn't seem to be aware of the crisis that was about to befall him. He still shouted, "Don't you dare kill me." He rushed towards Zhao Hongrun with his sword in hand.
Zhao Wenqu finally stopped, but it was not because of his brother, but because when Zhao Wenqu shouted to stop him, there was another person shouting to stop at the same time.
This person is none other than Zhao Laiyu, the father of the three brothers Zhao Wenlin, Zhao Wenqu, and Zhao Wenfu.
"If you still don't stop, Fool, do you really think he doesn't dare to kill you?!"
Zhao Laiyu came to the hall from the inner room at some unknown time, leaning on a cane and yelling curses at Zhao Wenqu.
Others don’t understand Zhao Hongrun, how can Zhao Laiyu not understand him?
Zhao Laiyu knew very well that Zhao Hongrun, like his father Zhao Yuanxi, had never been a soft-hearted person. Thinking about the deep hole dug by Chu soldiers during the Chu-Wei War, did he really think Zhao Hongrun was just joking?
Various signs at that time showed that if the 50,000 Chu soldiers refused to surrender to Zhao Hongrun, Zhao Hongrun, who was trying to counterattack into Chu State, would most likely kill these 50,000 Chu soldiers.
And when he later attacked Luo Di and Henan, do you really think that Zhao Hongrun simply made the people of Sanchuan willing to surrender to him and the Wei State simply by giving them enough benefits?
If someone really thinks so, I believe Zhao Laiyu would say four words to that person: unfathomably stupid!
You need to know that what Zhao Hongrun did is the purest way to control the emperor's art: first show force, use his fist to convince you, and then give you a little sweetness. I believe anyone with a brain will understand it.
How to make a choice.
Because of this, and putting aside personal emotions, Zhao Laiyu also recognized that Zhao Hongrun may be the most outstanding descendant of the Zhao family with the surname Ji in recent generations, and is a royal family destined to become the pillar of support for the Wei State.
Children.
But having said that, the scene he saw before him made Zhao Laiyu look at Zhao Hongrun very coldly, with a bit of hatred in his coldness.
...This kid is really unreasonable!
At the moment, Zhao Laiyu does not know what his Zhao family has done in recent days, so he is extremely dissatisfied with Zhao Hongrun's behavior of coming to the house to cause trouble.
He believed that he was on the right side, so even though he had lost the right to control the clan, he still showed no guilt or fear in front of Zhao Hongrun.
"Zhao Hongrun..."
"Call Su Wang!"
It was a very familiar scene. Zhao Laiyu, who spoke first, was pushed back by Zhao Hongrun with just one sentence. This not only stunned Zhao Wenlin, Zhao Wenqu, and Zhao Wenfu, but also stunned Zhao Chengxun and other descendants of the Zhao family who came after hearing the news.
Because in terms of seniority, Zhao Hongrun should call Zhao Laiyu his third uncle. Who would have thought that the rumored arrogant and domineering King Su would really be as arrogant and conceited as rumored in front of Zhao Laiyu, the elder of the Zhao family.
big.
But today, Zhao Laiyu's mood did not change. After all, it was not the first day he had dealt with Zhao Hongrun. Zhao Hongrun had even called him an old man in front of him. What does it mean to be like this today?
No, after being scolded by Zhao Hongrun, Zhao Laiyu was not anxious or annoyed. He just pointed at the messy halls around him, looked at Zhao Hongrun and said coldly: "Prince Su, I admit that you are my close relative of the Zhao family."
The most outstanding descendant in decades, but this does not mean that I will let you bully me. Today you smashed my Zhao family for no reason. If you don't give me an explanation, I will make you bear some burden even if I risk my life.
Bad stigma.”
…
Zhao Hongrun frowned slightly.
It is undeniable that although Zhao Laiyu has lost the power of the clan, he has been in charge of the clan for more than twenty years. Zhao Hongrun certainly does not believe that he has no trump card.
Furthermore, Zhao Laiyu's threat this time also made Zhao Hongrun feel that something was wrong, because Zhao Laiyu spoke very calmly and did not explode in anger like the last time he was in the clan mansion.
A calm opponent is far more threatening than an angry opponent.
Of course, despite this, Zhao Hongrun is not afraid. After all, his power is no longer comparable to that of Zhao Laiyu who has lost the power of the clan.
Thinking of this, Zhao Hongrun mocked lightly: "Why did I destroy your Zhao family's mansion, Zhao Laiyu, do you really not know?"
After hearing this, Zhao Laiyu immediately thought of what he had done when he left Daliang, which was to ask people to spread rumors to slander Zhao Hongrun.
When he thought about this, Zhao Laiyu couldn't help but sigh to himself: He really shot himself in the foot!
Because if he hadn't asked people to release that rumor in the first place, I believe Zhao Hongrun would probably still be staying in Daliang at this moment. How could he have the leisure to come to Anling and smash up the Zhao family's mansion?
It's a pity that he was so angry at the beginning that he didn't think carefully about the consequences of letting out that rumor.
Now that I think about it, I really regret it.
Zhao Laiyu cursed secretly, and after being silent for a while, Zhao Laiyu nodded and said: "Okay! You can smash it...but after smashing it, you and I will never owe each other any more. If you come to insult my Zhao family again in the future, I will never
I will let you go!"
Huh?
Zhao Hongrun felt something was wrong when he heard this. After frowning, he said slowly: "The purpose of destroying your mansion is just to teach your arrogant second son a lesson. It is not the purpose of my visit this time."
Zhao Laiyu sneered in his heart when he heard this. Although he also knew that his second son Zhao Wenqu had an impulsive personality and was indeed a bit arrogant, but having said that, it was inappropriate for you, Zhao Hongrun, to say this, right?
"What else do you want to do?" Zhao Laiyu asked coldly.
"If I don't do anything, I'm just urging you to wait until you move out of Anling."
Moving away from Anling?
Zhao Laiyu was startled when he heard this, because this was not like Zhao Hongrun's usual method.
"What do you mean? My family, the Zhao family, lives in Anling. Will it hinder His Royal Highness Prince Su?" Zhao Laiyu asked with a frown.
The more Zhao Hongrun listened, the more he felt that something was wrong. He frowned and said, "Zhao Laiyu, please stop pretending to me!... Since the Zhao family has decided to side with the Wang family, you want to move out of Anling and kidnap public opinion."
My king, well, I will let you move and see if Anling will collapse without you!"
When Zhao Laiyu heard this, his wrinkled old face suddenly stiffened, his brows furrowed deeply, and he said, "Have I ever done such a thing?"
"..."
"..."
The two looked at each other for a while, and then looked at the three brothers Zhao Wenlin, Zhao Wenqu, and Zhao Wenfu in unison.
Under Zhao Laiyu's angry gaze, the three brothers' eyes flashed and they looked panicked.
Suddenly, Zhao Hongrun and Zhao Laiyu understood.
Phew! Boring!
Zhao Hongrun curled his lips secretly, and his interest in raising an army to investigate the crime immediately dissipated.
At the same time, Zhao Laiyu slapped the crutch in his hand and cursed angrily: "Evil son! Evil son!"
Looking at Zhao Wenlin, Zhao Wenqu, Zhao Wenfu and Zhao Hongrun who knelt down in front of Zhao Laiyu with a pop, they shook their heads secretly, feeling quite gloating about their misfortune.
If you think about it carefully, Zhao Laiyu was able to stand in the clan for more than 20 years, and he was considered a strong and capable person. Although he was squeezed out of the main pillar, his later life was not desolate. In any case, he escaped with his whole body.
.
Unexpectedly, this time, a powerful man like Zhao Laiyu would be tricked by his sons in his later years, giving Zhao Hongrun a huge advantage in vain.
It is no exaggeration to say that as long as Zhao Hongrun is willing, he can make the Zhao family in Anling lose their royal status. After all, kidnapping public opinion and threatening Zhao Hongrun, who came here for the sake of the imperial court, is equivalent to being an enemy of the imperial court.
, which is equivalent to rebellion.
This crime is not a light one!
Obviously, Zhao Laiyu also considered this, so he was staring at his three sons with his eyes almost popping out of his head.
To say that the last time he had a confrontation with Zhao Hongrun, he was defeated by the defection of King Chengling and others, and by the acquiescence, connivance and even help of Emperor Wei Zhao Yuanxi and Zongzheng Zhao Yuanyan, then this time, he was defeated by him.
In the hands of several sons.
It's over now...
Taking a peek at Zhao Hongrun, Zhao Laiyu knew that the Zhao family was probably going to bleed heavily this time when he saw the boy's expression as if he was looking for a good show.
Unless we come up with conditions that satisfy the King Su in front of him, I'm afraid there really is no place for his Zhao family in Anling.
Don't be afraid of bullying others.
What I'm afraid of is that I will bully others with justifiable authority! (To be continued.)
