Chapter 301 The Head of the Family - Death!
It’s hard to get a quota, but for the sake of Tongtian, we still have to get it!
Gong Wudi said: "It's been a bit chaotic these days!"
"I heard that many of the Yiren's followers have disappeared or died."
"Perhaps, someone wants to use this assessment to cause trouble!"
"This has never happened before and I don't know how to deal with it now!"
"Anyway, be careful!"
Chu Qing smiled and said: "Today I met a third-level powerhouse!"
He told the story about the men in black robes killing the heavily armored soldiers.
Gong Wudi said with a solemn expression: "The heavy armored soldiers are from King Shiyu."
"They are terrifying, and ordinary third-level masters are no match for them!"
"The third limit you mentioned is definitely the best among masters."
"Are people like this taking action? What kind of chaos will this city become?"
…
King Shiyu held a meeting with one hundred and eighty family heads.
There is hatred and friction between them.
However, at this time, all the heads of the aristocratic families put aside their acrimony and seriously discussed the current situation.
The city was in chaos.
beyond their control.
Even some aristocratic families have lost many key figures.
Even King Shiyu's son died again.
"Everyone, the conflict between us must stop!"
"In this way, we can find out who is causing chaos!"
"We must find those people and kill them!"
"Otherwise, in the chaos, we will suffer the most!"
The master under the sect died.
Servants die.
Although it looks inconspicuous.
However, that is all a waste of resources.
Now dead, the previous investment wasted.
It will also waste time.
Some aristocratic families suffered heavy losses, which even led to the annihilation of middle-level power.
This is not a good sign.
More than an hour later:
All family heads made it clear:
No more people will be sent to kill.
Everyone must hibernate.
Wait two days for the battle for Tongtian Road to begin, and then proceed as planned.
King Shiyu wanted to entertain everyone.
result:
Many family heads have no intention of eating.
Everyone left one after another.
Seeing the family heads leaving, King Shiyu said with a sigh of relief:
"It's stable now!"
"We still have the final say in this city."
"When it stabilizes, I will definitely find the mastermind behind it!"
"Let's see who plotted against us."
However:
Not long after, a slave ran in and said in horror:
"Master...the head of the Liu family was killed!"
"Sir, the head of the Qin family suffered heavy losses!"
boom!
King Shi Yu felt dizzy.
It was as if someone had hit his head hard with a sledgehammer.
The whole person felt dizzy.
Plop!
He fell to the ground.
"Ruined!"
"It's completely over!"
The head of the family was killed?
This is a big deal
From the founding of the People's Republic of China to the present, in nearly a thousand years:
Families above the Fucheng level:
Even though they were fighting each other crazily, they never sent anyone to assassinate the rival family leader.
Even after the head of the family retreated, no one retaliated or assassinated him.
because:
This is a rule formed by tacit agreement among all the aristocratic families above the Fucheng level.
The head of the family can die on the battlefield.
You can die in a head-on challenge.
But, he was never assassinated.
Never had.
But, today, a family leader was assassinated.
Moreover, he was assassinated just after leaving the palace.
This time, it was not only the thousand-year rules that were broken; it was also pushed into the abyss of Shiyu Palace.
"Release all heavy armor soldiers to protect other family heads."
"Also, prepare the carriage, I'm going to see the state leader!"
The more panicked King Shi Yu became, the faster his head turned.
The heavy armored soldiers deterred the killers and prevented other family heads from being assassinated.
He went to see the governor to mobilize the army.
At this moment, King Shi Yu was really angry.
confusion?
turmoil?
Fishing in troubled waters?
Kill the head of the family?
Stimulate us to vendetta against each other?
Are you so fucking crazy?
The angry King Shi Yu found the state leader as quickly as possible.
The state leader is an old man in his sixties.
Lean.
His hair was pitch black, and so was his goatee.
Eyes bright.
Although he is not a warrior.
But, the power is huge.
The guards around you start out as second-level experts; there are also third-level experts who hide around and protect you secretly.
The protective force around him is more terrifying than any other family leader.
At this time, the state leader was listening to the ditty and handling government affairs:
[Thousands of houses collapsed! A large number of people froze to death! 】
"If the house you build yourself is not strong, you can't blame others."
"When the wind and snow stop, it will be time for the government craftsmen to build new houses."
"One family at a time, charge them one thousand eight hundred silver."
"Those who have no money will have their houses confiscated."
"After all, no one can live in a dangerous house!"
"As for the people freezing to death? People will die sooner or later. Let their families pay some money and throw the bodies outside the city."
"Wait until next spring to bury it!"
The state leader felt bored after dealing with it for a while.
He called a few concubines and told them to do with them as they pleased.
Some of the concubines handled it seriously; some handled it carelessly.
The state leader didn't care either.
Anyway...the empire is almost over.
Why is he so concerned?
Taking advantage of this opportunity to make some money is the way to go.
Just then, King Shiyu came.
The state lord was secretly happy when he saw King Shiyu's ugly face.
After a simple greeting, King Shiyu said:
"I will mobilize the army and block the state city."
"Catch the criminals!"
The state lord's face changed drastically.
In peacetime, mobilizing the army requires the seals of the state lord, King Shiyu, and the generals of the military.
Every time the army is mobilized, a detailed report must be written.
This report must be read by the emperor.
The empire is so big, it is in turmoil, and there are bad news everywhere.
Now, whoever is targeted by the emperor will be unlucky.
Especially things like mobilizing the army will make the emperor angry.
"Don't do that!"
The state lord waved his hands frantically: "I don't want the emperor to notice me!"
"I'm just a small state lord."
"If the emperor pays attention to me, I'll die!"
King Shi Yu said with an ugly face: "There are a lot of bandits causing trouble now; do you know how many people died in the whole state city?"
The state lord said calmly: "It's just a thousand or eight hundred peasants who died!"
"Even if tens of thousands of these peasants died, it's okay!"
"At most, just like last time, we'll say they are rebels and we'll strangle them."
"Not only is it not a fault, but it's a merit!"
King Shi Yu rolled his eyes in anger, and he growled:
"Seventy-two aristocratic family sons died."
"Six aristocratic family heads also died; twelve aristocratic family heads were seriously injured."
Click!
The state lord panicked and took a few steps back.
Six aristocratic family heads died?
How is this possible?
"Are you lying to me?"
"No; there really is a family leader who was assassinated."
"Assassinated in the street!"
"He was assassinated just after leaving my palace!"
"The army must enter the state capital; otherwise... there may be more family leaders who die tomorrow."
Aristocratic families are one of the foundations of the empire.
The assassination of a family leader represents too many meanings.
Even the rebels will not kill aristocratic families, let alone family leaders.
Now, who killed the family leader?
At this moment:
The state lord knows that things are in trouble.
"Okay, I agree to stamp my seal."
"Just don't know if the generals in the army... agree."
King Shiyu said calmly: "The generals in the state capital are very obedient!"
The state lord was horrified.
King Shiyu colluded with the generals in the military?
Is this a rebellion?
