Walking up the steps to the gate of Rongguo Mansion, Zhu Jinghong slowly turned around, looked down at Li Wenzhao and said, "Li Wenzhao..."
"I'm here!"
"You Jin Yiwei are the best at catching criminals. You will handle this matter. I don't care about the others... Brother Jia She cannot die!!"
At this juncture of the Holy Shou Festival, if these two people died, it would be a huge event, and it would be easy for others to make a fuss about it.
Regardless of the joyful dance of Zungar and Zhasak, it is impossible to say how many people below are convinced but not convinced.
"Yes!" Li Wenzhao answered simply.
This arrest mission was originally sponsored by them, and it was natural for them to undertake the most difficult task.
"What are your plans now?" Zhu Jinghong asked.
Li Wenzhao replied: "Back to Thirteenth Master, maybe we can use smoke!"
A strong attack is definitely not possible at the moment. Smoke is a good way, but in Zhu Jinghong's opinion, the feasibility is very low.
"Let's persuade them to surrender first... Tell them that as long as they are willing to surrender, their lives can be spared!"
Hearing this, Li Wenzhao couldn't help but remind him: "Thirteenth Master, I'm just afraid... I'm afraid they won't believe it!"
"Whether they believe it or not, they can always give it a try...the choice between life and death, there is no guarantee that they will not lose their minds!"
"If there is a glimmer of hope, no one will let it go easily. That king's envoy... didn't resort to it just to survive!"
"To persuade you to surrender, you need to use your brain... Do you understand?"
"I understand!"
"Get ready to go...you need to think of words and plan carefully!"
In fact, what Zhu Jinghong said was all nonsense, and it was up to Li Wenzhao to think of a solution.
After Li Wenzhao left, Zhu Jinghong waved to Qiu Liang again, and the latter trotted over.
Qiu Liang heard what he said just now. Zhu Jinghong had assigned the responsibility to Jin Yiwei, so he didn't have to worry about the deaths of people in Rongguo Mansion.
"Thirteenth Master, what are your orders?"
"Find me a strong bow!"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Liang immediately became alert and asked: "Thirteenth Master, don't you want to..."
"How can a few thieves surrounded by people still be able to hurt me?"
Since being assassinated in Jinling, Zhu Jinghong has paid special attention to his own safety. Every time he leaves the palace, there must be hundreds of guards, and of course there will be more guards secretly.
Although he was much more cautious, it did not mean that he had become a coward. The current situation of siege made it impossible for him to be frightened by the thieves.
"Don't worry, I won't fight them head-on. I'll just wait and see from a distance, waiting for an opportunity to shoot them!"
Zhu Jinghong's archery skills were well known to everyone present. Knowing that he just wanted to shoot from a distance made Qiu Liang relieved.
"Go...find a stiff bow!"
"yes!"
To be honest, Zhu Jinghong was very interested in this Rongguo Mansion, so he walked through the door at this moment.
In front of him, there were two rows of a human wall of twenty people. These soldiers in heavy armor could resist even direct fire.
A total of fifty such heavily armored soldiers surrounded Zhu Jinghong at this moment, escorting him into the Rongguo Mansion, which was under martial law.
There were soldiers standing on both sides of the gate. After passing through, there was the Yimen. After entering the Yimen, there was the reception hall of Rongguo Mansion.
Finally, Qiu Liang, who followed, couldn't help but said: "Master Thirteen, you can't go in again!"
After passing the reception hall, walking inside is the Hall of Rongxi, where the thieves of the White Lotus Sect are hiding.
"Have you got a hard bow?"
"Master Thirteen, I've already brought it over!"
Nodding, Zhu Jinghong continued, "I'll be outside the inner door to see how the Jin Yiwei persuades them to surrender!"
Unable to defeat Zhu Jinghong, Qiu Liang had no choice but to continue to send more troops for protection, even though the Rongguo Mansion was completely occupied by soldiers.
That's right, it was really completely occupied. The other masters and servants of Rongguo Mansion were all driven to Ningguo Mansion at this moment.
When Zhu Jinghong entered the Rongguo Mansion, everyone in the Jia family was in shock and worried about their family.
Especially Mrs. Wang and her son, they were crying very hard at this moment, as if Jia Zheng had been killed.
Although Mrs. Xing and Jia Lian looked worried, they did not appear too distressed.
Of course, Mrs. Jia is also the one who is extremely worried.
She gave birth to two sons and a daughter, and now her daughter is dead. If her two sons were to have another problem, she would really not be able to survive.
She had always been fasting and chanting Buddha's name, but now she couldn't help but wonder if she had offended the gods. Otherwise, how could she have encountered so many troubles in the past six months.
The two Jia She brothers were captured, and the only one in the Jia family who could make the decision was Jia Zhen. Unfortunately, this guy had no courage at all and didn't say a few words from beginning to end.
"Sister Lin, uncle and father...will they be okay?"
In the corner of the hall, Tanchun's face was full of worry, hoping to get comfort from Daiyu.
But this is the first time Daiyu has encountered this kind of thing. Who knows whether Jia She and the other two will survive.
"The officers and soldiers have surrounded Rongxi Hall. I hope... we can rescue the two uncles!"
Although these words came from Daiyu's mouth, she actually didn't believe it. In her opinion, this result was too difficult.
Those thieves were agile and not afraid of death. They broke into Jia's house into a deserted land. How could such ruthless bandits be easily dealt with.
At this time, a young boy came into the room, panting and reporting: "Excuse me, old lady, the Thirteenth Master is here in person!"
Although everyone in the Jia family was expelled from Rongguo Mansion, their movements in Ningguo Mansion were not restricted, and some situations could be observed from the gate.
"You actually alerted the Thirteenth Master?" Jia Zhen couldn't help but exclaimed.
While surprised, Jia Zhen also felt extremely worried, fearing that the man would think of her again and put the knife to his neck again.
On the other hand, his cousin Jia Lian had completely opposite thoughts at the moment.
"Master Thirteen is here, I have to think of a way... to serve him well!"
Then, he glanced at Wang Xifeng and murmured in a low voice: "Girl Feng... maybe there is a way!"
When Jia Lian took Wang Xifeng to discuss and tried every means to kneel down and lick Zhu Jinghong, Jia's mother and Mrs. Wang's mother and son didn't care who came. They were only worried about Jia Zheng's life.
At this time, Lin Daiyu, who was standing in the corner, whispered: "Master Thirteen..."
There is no doubt that Daiyu has a very strong curiosity about this person whom she has never met, but who affects the life and death of the Jia family.
Speaking of which, she still had something to do with Zhu Jinghong. A few months ago, she gave her precious medicinal materials, worth at least several thousand taels of silver, some of which were valuable but not marketable.
At this time, Tanchun whispered: "I heard...Sister Bao even saved Master Thirteenth!"
Yingchun then spoke: "But I heard Ying'er say that it was Master Thirteen who saved Sister Bao, but I don't know which one is true!"
"Maybe... it's all true!" Daiyu whispered.
In fact, she envied Baochai because he had a sweetheart whom he fell in love with, and this sweetheart was also interested in her.
Yes, the ice-snow and smart Daiyu sees everything clearly.
Because she knew this, she was disappointed with Baoyu and didn't understand why the second brother didn't want to grow up.
You can not read books but understand things, instead of being like a child, huddled under the wings of your parents.
Tanchun probably understood the situation, but Yingchun muttered: "Are they all true? This is really weird!"
"I really envy Sister Bao!" Tan Chun couldn't help but sigh.
Daiyu said: "I don't know how she is doing in the palace, whether she is lonely and boring, and whether the princess is easy to get along with!"
