Chapter 241 Death of the Marquis

Mr. Hou said: "I am just an ordinary person, so I will die too. [Read the full text]. `Mr. Xiao, I want to ask you for something."

Xiao Bing said: "Master Hou, tell me."

"After I die, I hope you can lead these people under me to fight against Long Ba. Long Ba is definitely not as simple as he seems. Originally, I thought that I couldn't defeat him with force, but I could win with strategy. But I didn’t expect that he also had deep calculations.”

Xiao Bing said: "Since strategy can't do it, then I will crush him directly with strength."

The Marquis smiled and said: "It seems that you have more trump cards, but I won't care about them. In short, I will make everyone in my hands obey your orders. From now on, you will belong to the Marquis Palace." Master. Don’t worry. Although the people under me are rebellious, they will not violate my last words, and there is no need to worry about their distrust. With Tingchuan here, they will not doubt the authenticity of my last words. .”

Xiao Bing said: "In that case, I am willing to lead your people to destroy Long Ba."

"Yes, you must help me kill him. Tang Xueyan died in his hands. If this revenge can be avenged, I will die in peace."

The Marquis looked at Mu Tingchuan again and said: "Tingchuan, from now on, you will assist Xiao Bing and help him manage these people under me. These people in my hands have always been unruly. Except for me, Only you can control them."

Mu Tingchuan sighed: "I have been following Mr. Hou since I was young. Mr. Hou is gone, and I am too tired. But I promised to fulfill Mr. Hou's wish and follow Mr. Xiao until Long Ba is destroyed. Now that Long Ba is dead, I just want to retire and return home to live a good life."

The Marquis nodded and turned to look at Miyamoto Nobuyoshi. Miyamoto Nobuyoshi said: "Mr. Tingchuan and I have the same idea."

The Marquis sighed: "Everyone has his own ambitions, then you will help Xiao Bing to destroy Long Ba. From then on, you will be free. Tingchuan, promise me something. After I die, , I want to be buried with Tang Xueyan, although I have not been with her for a long time, but I have never been married in my life, and my family has long been gone, so I regard her as my only relative."

Mu Tingchuan sighed: "Master Hou, I promise you."

"Yes." Mr. Hou nodded, slowly stood up and said, "I, Jiang Zihou, have been in the industry for nearly twenty years. From a little person who was teased when I joined a gang, I have come step by step to where I am today. Although I say that I will soon I am about to die. I am in my forties. In a place like the underground world, I am not considered young, nor can I say that I died young. Whether it is gained or lost, I have experienced so many things. That’s enough.”

The Marquis walked out of the hall step by step and said without looking back: "I'm going to sit in the pavilion. You guys can chat here. Just let Miyamoto accompany me alone."

After the Marquis went out, Xiao Bing looked at Mu Tingchuan and asked, "How did the Marquis get poisoned? Was it arranged by someone from the Long family?"

"Who else could it be besides Long Ba? We still underestimated Long Ba after all. According to the Marquis's caution, even if others poison him, it will be difficult for him to succeed. However, Long Ba has already figured out the Marquis's psychology. That woman The child is the woman that the Marquis loved deeply in the past, and the Marquis has always felt that he owed her, so even if he had doubts, he would rather die than guard against that girl in the slightest."

Mu Tingchuan said again: "The Marquis is gone now. I'm afraid the Long family will take action soon. Even if I come forward and you can take over the power of the Marquis, the morale of the army will definitely be shaken. Although it is still cracking down on gangsters now." , but it’s hard for Long Ba to give up such a God-given opportunity, otherwise he would have worked all this in vain, and I heard that this round of crackdown on crime will be over soon and will not last for a few days.”

After listening to Mu Tingchuan's words, Xiao Bing secretly made a plan in his heart.

Because of the incident involving the Marquis, Mu Tingchuan was not in a particularly good mood, so he didn't have much to say. Xiao Bing was also in a heavy mood now and had his own worries, so the two of them just chatted about each other. sentence, and then gradually became silent. ? .??`

Seeing that it was getting close to dusk, a servant suddenly ran in from outside and said: "Master Hou...Master Hou has passed away."

Although they had been mentally prepared, Xiao Bing and Mu Tingchuan were still taken aback. They suddenly stood up and rushed out of the hall until they ran into the pavilion.

Jiang Zihou passed away while sitting on a chair in the pavilion, with his body lying on the table. He looked very kind when he left.

Mu Tingchuan's eyes were red, and Miyamoto Nobuyoshi's eyes were also red. Although Xiao Bing was not like this, he was a little sad in his heart.

Miyamoto Nobuyoshi said next to him: "After Mr. Hou just sat down, he chatted with me about how we met, and then talked about the recent weather, and then he fell asleep on the table. When I saw it, Mr. Hou No longer breathing."

Xiao Bing said with emotion: "The great lord Hou never lost his reputation before he died. I am afraid there are not many people in the world who can talk and laugh in such a cheerful manner. Apart from the lord, there are probably not many people in the world."

Mu Tingchuan said: "Master Hou has valued you very much in his life and regarded you as a person. If he could know that you think so highly of him, he would definitely be very happy."

After finishing speaking, Mu Tingchuan and Miyamoto Xinyi both sighed, and everyone fell silent.

In the end, it was Xiao Bing who was the first to speak, comforting him: "Please forgive me and accept the change."

"Yes." Mu Tingchuan said, "The Marquis has never been married in his life. Now that we are his relatives, we must make the funeral more grand. In addition, during the funeral, we must recommend Mr. Xiao to Everyone. Mr. Xiao, from now on, you are the master of Prince Hou’s Mansion."

Xiao Bingsheng was originally going to refuse, but then he thought about it. The Prince Hou's Mansion was heavily guarded, surrounded by tall walls, and there were hidden sentries everywhere in the mansion. At the same time, there were surveillance videos inside and outside the mansion. Because the security here was so tight, Therefore, the Marquis has offended so many people, but no one has been able to hurt him in these years. Except for Miyamoto Nobuyoshi, the Marquis's Mansion is also extremely well-guarded.

Now he has to face an increasingly dangerous situation, and it is very likely that the people around him will be affected. What if everyone from Ye Zi and the Su family is allowed to live here?

The more Xiao Bing thought about it, the more he felt safer and more reliable, so he agreed, but still said: "But my name is not Mr. Hou. You can just call me by my name as always. All the servants in the mansion will call me Mr. Xiao." Can."

Mu Tingchuan said: "Then Prince Hou's Mansion can be changed to Xiao Mansion."

"No need." Xiao Bing said, "Just let Prince Hou's Mansion continue to exist, and the plaque will not move."

Mu Tingchuan looked at Xiao Bing with gratitude, and Miyamoto Xinyi also had a better impression of Xiao Bing. Mu Tingchuan said: "Thank you, Xiao Bing, you can still think about the Marquis, but the Marquis's Palace really doesn't Necessity exists and everyone is gone. What is the name of Prince Hou's Mansion? What's the point? What's more, if the name here has not changed, how can you convince the people if you want to command those under you? "

Xiao Bing frowned slightly. He had to say that what Mu Tingchuan said made sense. From an emotional point of view, the words "Prince Hou's Mansion" could not be moved. Xiao Bing naturally didn't care. Xiao Bing was trying to win people's hearts.

But if you really don't move, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public. Then the people below will always remember that they are the Marquis's people. It was the Marquis who led these people to conquer the world, and Xiao Bing is just an outsider. Just picked a ripe peach.

Xiao Bing thought of this and had no choice but to say: "In that case, let's change it to Xiao Mansion. In addition, spread the news of the death of the Marquis. After all, this matter cannot be hidden, even if I want to hide it. The Long family will also get the news, and they will publicize it with great fanfare. In this case, it is better for us to announce it openly and then hold a grand funeral and invite everyone who can. The dignitaries who arrived were present.”

Mu Tingchuan said: "I will send the invitation in the name of Mr. Xiao, and all our people who have no tasks in hand will also be present. I will tell them the Marquis's decision when the time comes."

"No, we can't wait until that time." Xiao Bing said, "I'll give you twenty-four hours. Tomorrow night, gather all the generals under the Marquis at the mansion. I will tell you personally."

Mu Tingchuan didn't expect Xiao Bing to be so motivated, but this made him feel relieved, so he agreed.

"Okay, I'll leave the rest to Mr. Tingchuan. Mr. Miyamoto, just stay at the mansion. I still have to go back to rest at night. As for the Marquis, I'll find someone to take good care of the Marquis' body immediately. Mr. Tingchuan, please arrange for the funeral immediately. From the coffin to the rest, everything must be of the best quality. The Marquis was a hero during his lifetime, and he will be buried with great splendor after his death!"

Before Xiao Bing left Prince Hou's Mansion, everything was almost arranged. Miyamoto Xinyi used to be with the Marquis every day, but Xiao Bing didn't need Miyamoto Xinyi to be with him, so Miyamoto Xinyi now has to be free. After settling down, on the way back, Xiao Bing's heart was extremely complicated. Today's events were so sudden that Xiao Bing was not mentally prepared.

However, the Marquis's demeanor before his death still left Xiao Bing unforgettable and full of shock.

Xiao Bing was on his way back when his cell phone rang. Xiao Bing parked the car on the side of the road and connected the phone. He only heard a very strong and domineering voice coming from the other side of the phone, even that overbearing voice. Even through the microphone, there is still an unbearable urge to crawl to the ground. This is why Xiao Bing can face it calmly.

"I heard that Jiang Zihou is dead."

"Dragon Tyrant?"

"That's right, everything has just begun!"
