The night was dark, Qian Zhuo frowned and walked in the dim backyard alley.
No matter who it was, being suddenly called to the ancestral hall in the middle of the night would not feel good.
The two guards in gray pushed open the door expressionlessly, and with a creaking sound, Qian Zhuo walked into the deserted but solemn ancestral hall.
Standing at the door, Qian Zhuo suddenly came to his senses when he saw his brother Qian Zhe kneeling in front of the ancestor's memorial tablet in the center.
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, but after a slight hesitation, Qian Zhuo walked to Qian Zhe's body and knelt down.
Looking at the densely packed spiritual tablets placed in front of him, Qian Zhuo lowered his head solemnly, then leaned forward to worship on the cold ground. .z.br>
At this moment, a rustling sound sounded from ahead.
Qian Zhe stood up slowly, walked to the side of the memorial tablet, and took out a one-meter-long willow branch from the side.
Under the light, the tall figure cast a heavy shadow.
Qian Zhuo lowered his head, and the shadow of the willow branch just passed by his eyes.
For a moment, Qian Zhuo shuddered.
However, he still didn't dare to raise his head.
Footsteps sounded, and Qian Zhe walked step by step to the left side of Qian Zhuo's body.
"The ancestors are asking you!" Qian Zhe's cold voice sounded from the side.
Qian Zhuo quickly raised his head and looked at the ancestors' spiritual tablets in front of him. His body was trembling slightly and he said, "The children and grandchildren answered without a trace of lies."
"Are those three thousand acres of land owned by the Xu family in Jinhua yours?" As soon as Qian Zhe spoke, Qian Zhuo was immediately stunned.
With a "pop" sound, the willow branch hit his back hard, causing a burning pain.
Qian Zhuo's eyes couldn't help but twitch, but he still quickly replied: "Reporting to our ancestors, it belongs to our descendant Qian Zhuo."
Hearing Qian Zhuo's answer, Qian Zhe's breathing immediately became heavy, and he then asked coldly: "Do you know that if you do this, the whole clan will be put in danger, and even the third sister will be threatened! "
At the end of the sentence, Qian Zhe couldn't help but gnashed his teeth and asked.
Qian Zhuo fell silent for a moment, but at that moment, there was a "pop" sound, and a willow branch hit him hard.
It hurt like hell.
But this time, Qian Zhuo stopped talking.
"Bang!" Another click, Qian Zhe's hand seemed to have a penetrating force, and the willow branch hit Qian Zhuo's body, straight into the bone marrow.
"Speak, speak!" Qian Zhe gritted his teeth, his voice as cold as a steel knife in winter.
"Brother, didn't you think about this when you were dealing with the Tianyin Sect earlier?" Qian Zhuo suddenly raised his head and stared at Qian Zhe.
It was Qian Zhe who first made a deal with the Tianyin Sect, and it was he who asked Qian Zhuo to come forward, but now Qian Zhuo has to take all the blame.
Two brothers, one standing and the other kneeling, faced each other, with incomparable hatred on their faces.
One is resentment, the other is hatred.
"It turns out that you have been staring at me." The hatred in Qian Zhe's eyes disappeared without a trace in an instant, and he said calmly: "I can tell you, I have thought about it, so I will wait until the whole thing is over. Afterwards, no one outside of the Qian family who knows about this will survive, let alone a single piece of evidence left, and it will definitely not endanger the safety of the entire family."
"I can do it too!" Qian Zhuo couldn't help but roared immediately.
"You can do it too?" A sneer flashed across Qian Zhe's lips: "The Tianyin Sect is a traitor to the imperial court, so it doesn't matter how they use it in every possible way. But as for the King of Nanchang and the magistrate of Jinhua County, The county magistrate, the county captain, and countless insiders."
"As long as Jinhua City is destroyed, as long as they are all dead, no one will know anything anymore." Qian Zhuo's eyes flashed with a trace of cruelty.
Jinhua and Wuzhou are separated by a city. The Tianyin Sect will eventually attack the state city, so before that, they can just use them to attack the county seat.
As long as the King of Nanchang is killed and everyone in Jinhua County who knows the situation is killed, everything will be over.
"You only have three days. Jinhua County will intercept the memorial sent by King Nanchang to the center within these three days. If you can't handle it within three days, then don't blame me for sending you out. "After Qian Zhe finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the depths of the ancestral hall.
The clear footsteps gradually moved away, and Qian Zhuo couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. But in an instant, the footsteps suddenly stopped, and Qian Zhuo's heart suddenly jumped.
Qian Zhe's voice sounded again: "In these three days, you can use all the Qian family's money, but you are not allowed to use any of the Qian family's personnel."
"Ah!" Qian Zhuo couldn't help but raise his head, and then saw Qian Zhe standing at the inner door of the ancestral hall, under the candlelight, with a gloomy face.
Qian Zhe stared at Qian Zhuo with his sharp eyes and said coldly: "Do you think you are the only smart person in the world? Do you know how many people outside are staring at the Qian family now? If they find out about my money, Believe it or not, the family members participated in the murder of King Nanchang. Tomorrow, the news will reach King Nanchang’s desk.”
"But you said I can use all the family's money?"
"That's right, it's just about money. It's much easier to wipe out accounts than people." Qian Zhe's extremely cold eyes penetrated directly into the deepest part of Qian Zhuo's heart.
Yes, it is much easier to wipe out accounts than wipe out people, especially when it is only one person.
Even though his whole body was chilling, Qian Zhuo still solemnly handed over his hands: "Follow the order!"
"Also, tell those people from the Tianyin Sect that Yan Tao went to Lanxi!" Qian Zhe finished his sentence and walked directly into the deepest part of the ancestral hall.
This is the safest place in the entire Qian family. If people from the Tianyin Sect dare to break in rashly, even a master like Mr. He will die without a burial.
Qian Zhuo lay on the ground. The ground was extremely cold, and his extremely hot heart quickly cooled down.
Suddenly, his eyes were filled with endless hatred.
Raising his head and looking at the countless ancestors' spiritual tablets above, Qian Zhuo's heart calmed down again.
Then he kowtowed to the spiritual tablet "bang bang bang".
The Qian family of Wuzhou originated from the Qian family of Wuxing.
The Qian family in Wuxing originated from the Peng family in Xuzhou, and was a descendant of Zhuanxu's great-great-grandson Peng Zu. At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, when Wang Mang took over power, the Qian family moved to Changxing, Huzhou.
During the Six Dynasties, the Qian family of Wuxing flourished.
Chen Baxian, the great ancestor of Chen in the Southern Dynasty and the founding emperor of the country, was the grandson of the Qian family of Wuxing. Qian Boren, the Chen family's maternal grandfather, was posthumously awarded the title of "Prince of Linchuan County".
However, the Wuxing Qian family is the Wuxing Qian family. Although the Wuzhou Qian family was born in Wuxing, their relationship with the family has become increasingly weak, and they are more and more trying to surpass the former.
The entire family has been working hard for this, including Qian Zhe, Sanmei, and Qian Zhuo.
Qian Zhuo kowtowed nine times in a row until blood stains oozed from his forehead. Only then did Qian Zhuo stop.
Slowly raising his head and looking at the spiritual throne, Qian Zhuo showed a solemn look in his eyes.
He stood up and without lingering at all, Qian Zhuo rolled his sleeves and left the ancestral hall in the blink of an eye.
As he walked through the courtyard, the servants and maids in the courtyard bowed respectfully when they saw him.
Everything is exactly the same as nothing has changed.
But Qian Zhuo didn't care about anyone and walked directly back to his yard.
Concubine Ji, whom she loved in the past, came forward, and Qian Zhuo shouted angrily: "Go back to your room, and you are not allowed to come out tonight."
"Here!" The concubine turned pale with fright and was about to shed tears, but in the end she remained obedient and returned to her room with her maid.
Qian Zhuo walked into the study. It was a bit cold inside, so Qian Zhuo closed the door with his backhand.
At this moment, a voice suddenly sounded: "How about it, what's your eldest brother's attitude?"
"Pah!" Qian Zhuo slapped him with his backhand, but his opponent immediately twisted his wrist.
Suddenly, Qian Zhuo's wrist hurt terribly, and the other party shouted unceremoniously: "You're crazy!"
Under the light and shadow, Zhang Wanyu stared at Qian Zhuo with cold eyes.
"You're plotting against me!"
Qian Zhuo gritted his teeth and stared at Zhang Wanyu with great hatred.
"What are you talking about? When did we plot against you?" Zhang Wanyu frowned. She couldn't understand what Qian Zhuo was talking about.
"You just begged me to sell crossbow arrows to you a few days ago, and now you are threatening my brother with this matter." When Qian Zhuo spoke, his other hand had already touched the back of his waist.
"What the hell are you talking about!" Zhang Wanyu threw Qian Zhuo away. Under the strong force, Qian Zhuo turned around several times uncontrollably and sat down directly on Hu's bed.
Before Qian Zhuo could sit up, Zhang Wanyu stood in front of him again and said coldly: "Listen, we just told your brother what happened in Jinhua today. As for the rest, it's all Your brother figured it out on his own; if you want to blame, blame yourself for being too greedy."
"Yeah, I'm too greedy." Qian Zhuo lowered his head and suddenly said in an extremely cold voice: "Then let's cancel this crossbow transaction."
Zhang Wanyu suddenly frowned again, and finally said impatiently: "Tell me, what do you want without playing such childish threats?"
"Trick, haha!" Qian Zhuo laughed a little uncontrollably, looked up at Zhang Wanyu, and suddenly said through gritted teeth: "I want double the price."
"Okay, I can promise you, but do you believe it?" Zhang Wanyu's cold words directly broke Qian Zhuo's delusion, and he sat slumped on the bed.
Immediately, Qian Zhuo turned over and lay directly on the bed, and then said impatiently: "Go away, I don't want to see you."
"Set conditions. Without our help, you can't kill the King of Nanchang." Zhang Wanyu simply ignored Qian Zhuo's insistence on playing hard to get.
"Okay!" Qian Zhuo turned over and sat up. He stared straight at Zhang Wanyu and said, "I want you to capture Jinhua in three days and kill the prince of Jinhua Nanchang County and everyone in the Jinhua County Government."
"Impossible!" Zhang Wanyu's eyes widened, she looked at Qian Zhuo, shook her head slowly and closely, and said, "You should know that our weapons will be handed over in seven days. Before that, we can't have any Action."
"Yan Tao and his people have already gone to Lanxi." Qian Zhuo finally revealed his trump card.
Zhang Wanyu's fists clenched instantly, and her eyes became sharp in an instant.
"Meiling Pass, the King of Nanchang is going to beat the dog behind closed doors!" Zhang Wanyu figured out Li Xuan's methods and ideas in a blink of an eye.
Tianyin Sect's current power in Wuzhou is no longer enough for them to confront the government head-on. They can only use strange moves. However, against the government, now is their biggest opportunity to fight steadily.
Once Li Xuan closes Meiling Pass, there will immediately be a trend of closing the door and beating the dog.
"So, you don't have much time." At this time, Qian Zhuo stared at Zhang Wanyu.
At this moment, you can clearly see a hint of anxiety in his eyes.
At this time, Zhang Wanyu calmed down, then looked at Qian Zhuo and said, "Do you still remember the poison that Mr. He mentioned to you a few days ago?"
Qian Zhuo nodded.
Zhang Wanyu reached out and turned it in her sleeve. The next moment, a small indigo blue porcelain bottle appeared in Zhang Wanyu's hand.
In a blink of an eye, the small porcelain bottle was placed on the table.
"Pour the contents of this bottle into the tea that King Nanchang drinks on weekdays... As soon as he dies, the next day, my disciples will bloodbath the Jinhua County Yamen!"
