Chapter 239: Death, Let's Die Together!
Before dawn, darkness is like an abyss.
The Xu family, which has been based in Moling for nearly decades, stands in the most prosperous central area of Moling City, and the mansion is brightly lit in the mansion and above the lobby.
The head of the family, Xu Mu, seemed to be dozens of years old overnight, sitting at the top of the lobby a little decadently, his face was as silent as water, and his eyes were confused.
More than a dozen principals of the Xu family, who were separated from each other on the left and right, all stared at him.
Under the lobby, there were two young men kneeling, one was Xu Mu's sister-in-law, and the other was his carefully cultivated nephew.
The principals of the Xu family looked at these two young people, revealing a trace of killing intent, the dignified Xu family, just because of these two people, their lives are now hanging by a thread.
"Xu Bin, Xu Ming is not sensible, are you not sensible? You are a county soldier, who gave you the right to send people to prison casually? Xu Mu straightened his waist, his eyes burst out with a touch of murderous intent, and he looked coldly at the two culprits who put the Xu family in a dilemma.
"Master, I... We also ...... Think...... Unexpectedly, he ...... It's actually Moling County...... Prefectural order, or ...... Right...... Quan Gongzi! Xu Bin broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, and his strands trembled.
He didn't expect that he would actually put Jiangdong Quangongzi into the prison of Moling, which is a hardcore capital crime.
"Gongzi Jiangdong Quan, born with amber and blue eyes, unique, your eyes are blind!" Xu Mu was furious, stood up, kicked Xu Bin's body, and then kicked the sister-in-law who usually held it in his heart.
The two bastards, the Xu family, which he managed carefully, fell to the realm of Rusi, and hundreds of people may all be wiped out before a single thought.
"Father, where did we think that it would be Gongzi Quan?"
Xu Ming turned over, looked at his angry father pitifully, and carefully analyzed.
They didn't think about this aspect at all in their subconscious, in their subconscious, Jiangdong Quangongzi was high, how could he reason with them, if they were offended, they would directly lead troops to kill them, and then follow them into prison?
"Say, after Gongzi Quan entered the prison, did you do anything to him?" Xu Mu took a deep breath, his eyes were cold, he looked at the two of them deadly, and asked.
"The head of the family, no, we didn't do it, he has two very powerful guards around him, so we don't dare to do it." Xu Bin immediately said loudly.
Xu Ming didn't want to do it, but Xu Bin felt that it would be difficult to take down the two guards beside Sun Quan at once, so he planned to rest for the night first, and then invite a bow and crossbow tomorrow, and then do it again to kill people.
Now Xu Bin is a little glad that he dragged on for such a night.
"Someone!"
Xu Mu shouted.
"Head of the house!" Outside the lobby, four guards strode in.
"Pull it down, enforce the family law, each hit fifty boards, and if they can't die, I'll keep them in the cellar and not allowed to eat for three days!" Xu Mu said coldly, even if he is his most beloved sister-in-law on weekdays, he is ruthless.
"No!"
"Father, don't want it!"
Xu Ming was immediately frightened when he heard this.
"Fifty boards, whoever dares to keep his hands will get out of the Xu family." Xu Mu knew that he had to give an explanation to the Xu family tonight, otherwise the last bit of cohesion of the entire Xu family would be gone, and in the face of such a big difficulty, if they couldn't work together, the Xu family would be scattered.
Speaking of which, Xu Mu is actually a good family owner, very courageous, when Sun Ce attacked the city, the powerful families in the city did not dare to help, just because he took the initiative to welcome Sun Ce into the city, so that the Xu family stood out among the local powerful families, but he was too selfish, since he was family-oriented.
"Family master, Xu Shu's conditions, how can we do it?" An old man stood up, looked at Xu Mu, and asked worriedly.
"Promise!"
Xu Mu took a deep breath, calmed down, and said indifferently.
"No way!"
Several members of the Xu family stood up against it, and one said: "At the beginning, the general's mansion recruited tenants, which has made our Xu family lose half of its strength, and land is the foundation of our Xu family, if we don't have land, it will inevitably be overwhelmed by other families, and the Xu family will not be able to survive in Moling." ”
"If you don't agree, tomorrow, our Xu family will be ruined, and the chickens and dogs will not be left." Xu Mu closed his eyes, and his heart was also dripping blood, but his expression could only reveal a trace of helplessness, and he said coldly.
"The head of the family, or we will kill Gongzi Quan in prison overnight, and then die without proof." A bold man, a ruthless man.
"And then?" Xu Mu sneered in his heart, killing people and killing people? It's really whimsical, what is the identity of Gongzi Quan, let's not talk about the consequences, even if the Xu family does it, can he kill it? After all, Moling is Jiangdong's Moling, and if he does it, he will rebel against Jiangdong.
When it comes to resisting Jiangdong, with his 1,000 county soldiers, it is not enough to even plug the gaps, and with the current power of Jiangdong Wuhou, even the most loyal soldiers under his command dare not follow him.
"And then ......"
The man couldn't go on.
"Then we were exterminated by Wu Hou of the Nine Clans!" Xu Mu added coldly.
"The head of the family, or we will expel Xu Ming and Xu Bin from the Xu family, and then tie them up, and give Gongzi Quan an explanation." A middle-aged man suddenly whispered.
"Stupid!"
Xu Mu opened his eyes, a cold glint crossed his eyes, and said: "If this can save the Xu family, I would have done it a long time ago, do you think that Gongzi Quan made such a big drama and did not hesitate to enter the prison, just to clean up the two unsuccessful juniors of our Xu family?" As the new county magistrate of Moling, he is here for our Xu family, and not only the Xu family, but also the local powerful forces in the entire Moling. ”
"Ahh
Everyone in the Xu family was cold in their hearts and a little desperate.
"Hmph, remember to a certain person, our Xu family has hundreds of people, there is no field, we can still accumulate, but if there are no people, there will be no more, this matter has been decided as the head of the Xu family, no need to discuss it." Xu Mu said helplessly but firmly, he must leave a trace of life for the Xu family, and he had a hard time with Sun Quan, he asked himself if he had the courage.
"Father, I'm afraid Gongzi Quan wants more than just our Xu family's fields, right?" At this time, a thin and weak young man standing at the back moved his eyes slightly and asked in a low voice.
"Boss, what do you mean?"
When Xu Mu heard this, his heart moved, squinted his eyes, looked at this eldest son he had always liked a little, and asked.
"Father, for the survival of hundreds of people in the Xu family, it is a foregone conclusion that the Xu family's fields will be given to the county government of Moling, but the fields that our Xu family does not have must have a plummeting status in Moling, but ...... What if the other Haoqiang families don't have a field? The thin young man looked a little gloomy, his small eyes flashed with an uncomfortable light, and he whispered.
"How do you want to do it?" When Xu Mu heard this, a chill crossed his heart, and he looked at his eldest son with some strangeness and asked.
"Father, since we are all going to die, then we are the local heroes of Moling, then we will die together, a certain guess, Quan Gongzi may not only want our Xu family's fields, he wants to settle those displaced people in Moling City today, he must take down all the fields in Moling, if we can do this, we can still get Quan Gongzi's appreciation!"
"Gongzi Quan's appreciation?"
When Xu Mu heard this, he was moved, he knew a little about the Sun family, and understood Sun Quan's status in the heart of the lord Sun Jian, if he could get Sun Quan's appreciation, even if all these lands were given away, they would be valuable.
"Fang Xiao, tell me in detail!" Xu Mu has a deep distinction in his heart, so he has always loved Xu Ming, and he has always disliked this Xu Shan, the eldest son, but now he is a little impressed.
"Father, since we want to do it, let's be ruthless, as far as the child knows, the Fan family in the west of the city has a connection with a group of water thieves in the Yangtze River, and the Lu family's family in the north of the city is on the other side of the Jiujiang River, and the connection has not been broken over the years, and the Wang family on the outskirts of Stone City has more fields than us, and the head of the Wang family has several lives on his back......"
Xu Shan talked eloquently, and there was a ruthless light shining in his eyes, which made the people in the entire Xu family hall feel a little chilly, this young man who didn't talk much on weekdays, let his descendants bully him at will, and was as silent as water, at this time, they felt strange and afraid.
Moling's local heroes, there are dozens of families, it can be regarded as a collective force united, and there is some competition on weekdays, it is not surprising to be able to hold the handle of the other party, but to be able to understand so many unknown things of the family at the same time, how much energy and time it takes.
Xu Shan was able to grasp some things that even they didn't know, which made them feel cold in their hearts, like a dog that suddenly turned into a wolf with baring teeth.
"Fang Xiao, you are hiding deep enough, if it weren't for the fact that the Xu family had such a big crisis today, when would you plan to make a move." Xu Mu saw a trace of ambition in the eyes of this eldest son, which he usually couldn't see, before, he always thought it was a waste, but now he knew that this was a wolf.
"Father, everything the child has done is for the Xu family!" Xu Shan said lightly.
"You're right, you want to die, everyone dies together!"
Xu Mu groaned, his face was gloomy and uncertain, and finally a ruthless glint crossed his gaze, and he said coldly.
Above the sky, on the edge of the east, a glimmer of light emerged, Xu Mu came over, looked at the gradually brightening sky, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then looked at the eldest son beside him, and said indifferently: "It's dawn, Fang Xiao, you go with your father to meet the famous Jiangdong Gongzi." ”
"No!"
When Xu Shan heard this, his face was calm, but a faint sense of joy in his eyes could not hide from Xu Mu's eyes.
