Wuzhou City, government office,
Zhao Sanfeng rubbed his chest, trying to calm his racing little heart.
At the critical moment, it was Yang Dong's spies who took action and saved him.
He stared at the man with a gloomy face and said angrily:
"Mingxiu, do you know what you are doing?"
"I am the chief official appointed by the imperial court. Even if someone is wanted, it must be approved by His Majesty."
"You are just a general judge. Who gave you the courage to issue a wanted notice from me? Do you know that this is a serious crime of beheading!"
After hearing this, the shadowy man named Ming Xiu not only did not show any fear on his face, but instead raised the corners of his mouth slightly, evoking a hint of disdain.
"Zhao Sanfeng, are you confused?"
"How dare you talk to me like this in Wuzhou City?"
"If you have the ability, let His Majesty order me to behead!"
After saying this, he glanced at Yang Dong proudly,
"You are the eunuch favored by the little emperor, right? Others may be afraid of you, but I am not afraid of you!"
"Do you know who has the final say in Wuzhou now?"
Zhao Sanfeng stood aside. Although his face was terrifyingly gloomy, he still tugged on Yang Dong's sleeves and said:
"Mr. Yang, don't be impulsive. This bastard is from the Ming family."
Hearing this, Yang Dong couldn't help but frown slightly.
He didn't have much information about the Ming family.
Zhao Sanfeng may have also seen what Yang Dong was thinking, so he said:
"Mr. Yang doesn't know that since the decline of the Xu family, the Ming family has been coveting the status of the Xu family."
"After nearly twenty years of competition, the two families finally understood each other with yesterday's murder of the Xu family. From now on, the four major families in Jiangnan will no longer have the Xu family, but they will have the Ming family. "
"So...the Ming family has enough motives to exterminate the Xu family, right?"
Yang Dong's eyes lit up and he looked at Ming Xiu, looking up and down.
Ming Xiu didn't expect that Yang Dong didn't react at all after learning his identity.
It seems... he has no idea about the four major families!
Thinking of this, Ming Xiu said coldly:
"Little eunuch, I don't care what your purpose is in coming to Wuzhou. Now hand Zhao Sanfeng over to me immediately and leave quickly."
"For the sake of the little emperor, I can spare your life."
"If you insist on investigating the Xu family's extermination case, you will be in trouble with me!"
When Yang Dong heard this, he couldn't help but laugh.
He looked at Ming Xiu and asked:
"As an official of the imperial court, you do not obey His Majesty's imperial edict."
"Did you know that disobedience will result in the death of the family?"
"Destroy the whole family?"
Mingxiu seemed to have heard something funny, and couldn't help but laugh to the sky.
"Hahaha! It's interesting, you little eunuch knows how to joke!"
After saying this, his expression suddenly darkened.
"Since you want to destroy the entire Ming family, I won't let you stay today!"
"Come here, kill this eunuch and Zhao Sanfeng together!"
In the courtroom, a look of hesitation appeared on the faces of the government officials. But with the sound of uniform footsteps outside the court, each of them couldn't help but raise their heads and pulled out the long knives in their hands.
The Ming family's current status lies in more than just being a merchant.
In fact, business is just a means for them to make money.
After these big families accumulated huge amounts of wealth, they began to cultivate their own private soldiers.
Even when the Zhou Dynasty was established, the ancestors of the Ji family had a large number of private soldiers from the four major families in the south of the Yangtze River.
Because of this, the Jiangnan region has great independence.
At this moment, the sound of neat footsteps outside the court could be the arrival of the Ming family's private soldiers?
The officials knew it was time to make a choice.
So they looked at Zhao Sanfeng helplessly and said:
"Master Zhao, you have seen the current situation. After you go down, don't blame me."
"I'm waiting...I'm forced to do nothing!"
While they were talking, these government officials came over with long knives to kill.
When Zhao Sanfeng saw this, his face turned blue.
He never imagined that in the courtroom, a government official would swing a knife at him, the chief official of Wuzhou!
Is it possible that these four states in the south of the Yangtze River are no longer considered the territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty?
"Mr. Yang, let's run away?"
"I know there is a secret passage in the Yamen, we can..."
Before Zhao Sanfeng finished speaking, he was stunned.
He stared blankly in Mingxiu's direction and swallowed with some difficulty.
"No, are you serious?"
"Calm down, please!"
Yu Xiaoyu's voice was extremely arrogant and could be heard clearly in the ears of every government official. They subconsciously followed the sound, and then realized that Master Ming had fallen into the opponent's hands, so they were all shocked!
"What are you doing? Why don't you let us Master Ming go quickly!"
"If Mr. Ming is injured in any way, I guarantee you will not be able to leave Wuzhou alive!"
Perhaps after hearing the commotion in the courtroom, the private soldiers outside suddenly broke in.
However, when they saw that Ming Xiu had been caught in Yu Xiaoyu's hands, all of them looked gloomy.
"Let our third master go, and you can leave Wuzhou safely."
"If you resist stubbornly, the only way out is death!"
However, Yu Xiaoyu didn't care about these private soldiers at all, but looked at Yang Dong.
"Mr. Yang, how should we deal with this man?"
"According to the laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty, if the following offends the superiors, disobeying the decree and not respecting it, the nine tribes will be destroyed."
"But I'm in a good mood today, so I just need to kill the first culprit."
As soon as these words came out, everyone immediately became nervous, whether it was the government officials in the court or the private soldiers of the Ming Dynasty who just broke in!
At this moment, a rough voice came from among the private soldiers of the Ming family.
"A bunch of losers, just being manipulated by others?"
"Don't be afraid, Third Master, I'm here to save you!"
While speaking, a figure flashed past. He held a long sword in his hand, and a faint chill flashed between his brows.
He looked at Yu Xiaoyu, frowned and said:
"Let Third Master go, I'll leave you with a complete body."
Such a condescending attitude made Yu Xiaoyu very unhappy.
He glared at the man, then looked at Ming Xiu in his hand, and asked deliberately:
"You speak like a mistress, don't you call this old guy?"
"Tsk tsk... When your grandson is so proactive, why are you pretending to be your mother in front of me?"
When the man heard this, his face suddenly turned gloomy.
At the same time, a cold breath came from all directions and converged on him.
When the private soldiers of the Ming family saw this, their faces suddenly became excited.
"Look, Kenbukiyuki is angry!"
"Tsk, tsk, that boy is so reckless. He even dares to offend Jian Chuixue. He doesn't know how to live or die!"
"Jian Chui Xue is our number one young master in the south of the Yangtze River. At only ten years old, he has already entered the realm of a warrior. His future is limitless!"
