Chapter 742 The lingering ghost

Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Lin Run really guessed right, it was the Xu brothers who were behind this incident in Suzhou.

    The reason is also very simple.

    Governor Yingtian and Su Song prepared their troops and came with two thousand officers and soldiers in a fierce manner. Everyone knew that this time it was definitely coming.

    There are only two options before the Xu family, either to let it be slaughtered and lose money and eliminate disaster.  Or you have to take the initiative and try to drive Lin Run away.

    ?Obviously, the former will make people think that the Xu family is different from what it used to be and has become soft!  When the time comes, anyone dares to come to the Xu family and have a knife cut on their head. Who can stand it?

    The latter will allow officials all over the world to continue to respect the Xu family.

    Therefore, no matter what the choice is in the end, it is necessary to show off the muscles of the Xu family and fight Lin Zhongcheng to a showdown.

    In this case, of course it is better to act early than to act late?  Xu Fan asked Xu Ying to instruct the tenants to delay, while he incited civil unrest in Suzhou.

    Of course, without sparks, no matter how strong the wind is, it will not be able to cause a fire.

    It¡¯s because Suzhou has reached a point where the citizens have nothing to do and are full of resentment that Xu Fan can fan the flames so easily.

    ??~~

    Seeing that everything was going smoothly and developing according to his own plan, Xu Fan felt a long-lost pleasure in his heart.

    He seemed to have returned to the time when he was calling the shots in the cabinet and arranging the affairs of the world's heroes.

    At that time, my father was still the chief minister, and he was a third-rank official. All officials were extremely respectful, and Zhang Juzheng was no exception.  I don¡¯t know where the boy named Zhao is sucking milk

    Everything is so pleasant.

    Just relying on memories, Xu Fan felt that he was a little drunk.

    Xu Ying bowed and poured another glass of wine for Xu Fan, then picked up her own glass and said with a look of shame on her face:

    ¡°In the past, it was the younger brother who was ignorant and always wanted to compete with the elder brother. Now I realize that compared with the elder brother, it is like Mr. Neng meets Mr. Xiong. There is a lot of difference.¡±

    "Hehehe" Xu Fan glanced at Xu Ying and couldn't help but smile: "My brother is just a little older than you and has been with my father longer. The past has been forgotten. Who made you my brother?  ?¡±

    "Come on, brother, do it."

    "Dry."

    As he said that, the two of them had a drink, and it seemed that their grudges were gone.

    "By the way, where is Zheng Yuanshao, have you gone back with him?" Xu Fan put down the wine cup and continued to ask.

    "No, he is still on his way." Xu Ba replied hurriedly and respectfully.

    "Where are the two thousand Taicang soldiers?" Xu Fan asked again.

    "It looks like half of them have been taken away." Xu Badao said: "There are still many people in the barracks, and only one of the two thousand households has left."

    "Hiss" Xu Ying couldn't help but frown.  "What does this mean? Do you want to save yourself?"

    "Don't give up yet." Xu Fan snorted and said: "If we evacuate all the people, how can he have the nerve to come back for a while? Let Zheng Yuanshao lead his people to attack Songjiang, just to kill him."

    "Humph, he has to clean up the mess in Suzhou first." Xu Ying sneered: "Those unruly people will not be so easy to deal with this time."

    "Yes, if he wants to solve it quickly, he has to come up with millions of taels of real money. But does he have it?" Xu Fan smiled disdainfully.

    "Of course not." Xu Ying laughed and said, "Unless he distributes the autumn grain to those unruly people. The question is, does he dare?"

    "Of course he wouldn't dare. Misappropriating imperial food is a capital crime." Xu Fan said decisively:

    "But we can't just sit around and wait. Let's make an appointment with Zheng Yuanshao tomorrow and I'll treat him to a drink."

    "What do you mean, brother?" Xu Ying's heart moved, and she seemed to understand something.

    "Yes, bring him to our side." Xu Fan seemed to be playing with the white porcelain wine glass in his hand, and said with a faint smile:

    "The person named Zheng is just a civil servant, and he has no connections to the top. When he reaches the fourth rank, he will be the deputy inspector. He may not be as stubborn as Lin Run."

    "Yes." Xu Ying rubbed her hands excitedly and said, "How many fools are there like Lin Run? They are rare. Aren't most people still working as officials for thousands of miles just for money?"

    "It doesn't matter if he doesn't do it for money. I have a reason why he can't refuse." Xu Fan then took a sip of the wine in the glass and put the cup down steadily.

    ??~~

    Xu Ying drank with Xu Fan until dark, then returned to her Afang Garden.

    He originally planned to take advantage of the drunkenness to go and have some fun while leaning on the red and green trees.

    But he saw Xu Liu waiting for him in the garden.

    "What are you doing here again?" Xu Ying asked angrily: "If you can't finish your errand, do you still have the nerve to hang out in front of me and look for a beating?"??

    "Third Master, it's over." Xu Liu said with a sad face: "Our arrangements in Chongming are all over."

    "What's the end?" Xu Ying couldn't help but stare.

    "Umekawa Kazuo's gang was taken over by the Chongming County Gunmen Camp. Guo Donglin and his brother's gang were all killed by the Shachuan Gang. Now Mrs. Shen is the gang leader."

    Xu Liu bit the bullet and reported: "Our informant said that she buried her dead husband yesterday and vowed to live and die with Sansha. It is said that the magistrate of Jin County and the boy named Zhao also showed up at the funeral."

    "I am your ancestor!"

    Young Master Xu San gave Xu Liu a hard kick on the thigh, and cursed fiercely: "What do you do for food?!"

    Xu Liu was kicked to the ground and couldn't help but said aggrievedly:

    "Before I left, I told Guo Donglin that he must not be provoked by the man named Zhao. He also asked him to tell Kazuo Umekawa not to show his face during this period."

    "But who knew that the person named Zhao was going to the Shachuan Gang? Who could survive this?" Xu Liu said with tears in his eyes: "It's really hard to guard against, Third Master."

    "What a fucking evil!" Xu Ying stomped her feet in hatred and cursed: "I didn't provoke him this time, did I? Why is he in the salt and also in the sauce? I'm doing something in Chongming.  Can it even hinder him?!"

    The ubiquitous Mr. Zhao is like a ghost hanging over the Xu family.  It makes people furious, but there is nothing they can do!

    "Young master, we have to think of a way." Xu Liu reminded Xu Ying, who was just losing his temper: "The first priority is to determine the life and death of Umekawa Kazuo. If he is still alive and they pry his mouth open, the consequences will be disastrous."

    The biggest consequence is that he will be betrayed

    "Where is he now?" Xu Ying asked with a dark face.

    "I don't know." Xu Liu shook his head and said, "You can't see people alive, and you can't see corpses even if you are dead."

    "Check, check it out for me!" Xu Ying shouted sharply: "If he is still alive, kill him at all costs!"

    After a pause, he glanced hard at Xu Liu and said, "Otherwise, just kill yourself!"

    "Oh, yes, I understand." Xu Liu shuddered.

    "What else?" Xu Ying asked again.

    "The other thing is, what should we do with the Shachuan Gang?" Xu Liu said weakly: "After two years of planning, in the end, I made a wedding dress for someone named Zhao?"

    "What's the use of talking about this now?" Xu Ying kicked Xu Liu hard again and spat: "I'm already very worried, Lin Run, how can I provoke someone named Zhao again? Do you want me to be attacked from both sides?"  ?"

    ¡°We¡¯ll talk about Chongming later. Please wipe your butt clean first!¡±

    ps. The fourth update is asking for monthly votes. My eyes can still bear it today, so I will write another chapter.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
