These days, the fifth young master of Tianliang Zhao's family has been in a good mood.

First they burned a street of the Ning family, and then sank several boats of the other party. Even the wharf controlled by the Ning family was in a state of panic and lost order.

This is all his handwriting.

Fifth Young Master Zhao Lei really likes the feeling of turning hands into clouds and turning hands into rain.

He has done a lot of things over the years, many of the dirty and tiring work that brothers in the family are unwilling to do are all done by him.

And such dedication has paid off. Not only has he gradually gained his own influence, but his family has also recognized him more and more.

It can be seen from the fact that his father sent him a guard like Uncle Li.

Almost every child of the Zhao family will have such a guardian in the natal realm. This is not only a symbol of the strength of the Zhao family as the top ten aristocratic families, but also represents the family's complete recognition of him.

It was not easy for Zhao Lei who was a concubine, but he was also very pleased.

It can be said that for the Zhao family, Zhao Lei is the heir with the most sense of belonging. If anyone is unfavorable to the Zhao family, he will do the same as before, even if it is dirty work, work that does not see people, he will do it clearly.

The revenge against the Ning family this time was all in the minds of the brothers, but he was the one who implemented it in the end.

He is also very aware of the benefits of doing this, the Zhao family has a large sphere of influence, and the second brother's influence is among the best among their brothers.

Because the elder brother is away all the year round, the father relies on the second elder brother the most.

Sure enough, as expected, the Ning family chose to swallow their anger for what they had done.

After all, today's Ning family is no longer the Ning family that called the wind and rain and had close ties with the royal family a hundred years ago. In their eyes, they are just down-and-out households with nothing but money.

They believed that this little pain could be tolerated by the Ning family.

Before he knew it, Zhao Lei became more and more convinced of the saying that most of the happiness is brought about by the pain of others.

Because seeing the suffering of the Ning family, he couldn't help being very happy.

So in this pavilion, he held a luminous cup carved with exquisite patterns, swirled the wine in the cup, and slowly tasted it with a smirk on his face, feeling very comfortable.

After tasting the wine, Zhao Lei went downstairs to his favorite stable.

Zhao Lei, the fifth young master of the Zhao family in Tianliang, loves horses like his life, especially this "Silver Snow" is his favorite.

Yinxue's whole body is snow-white, her mane is silver, and her muscles are extremely smooth without any blemishes.

This is a pure different blood horse.

There are many big men in the capital who love horses, and some even bought huge land in the outskirts of the capital as a horse farm. However, this kind of love is not only for the value of the horse itself, but also for the type of antique calligraphy and painting.

And Zhao Lei's love for horses is even deeper.

He likes the feeling of being with the horses, and every time he does something that makes him feel sick, he will stay in the stables for a while to find peace.

It can be said that these horses comforted him when he was not recognized.

He had given away many BMWs, including his closest brothers and sisters, but he had never thought of this Yinxue before.

In Zhao Lei's heart, even if he sent his own woman away, he would not give away this horse.

Or, in a certain sense, this horse Yinxue has far surpassed his wife in his heart.

He will always remember the first time he saw Yinxue, she was just a little pony, which made him very happy.

Unexpectedly, this kind of liking has lasted for ten years, and even because of watching it grow up, it has added a feeling of companionship.

After taking a good look at his own horse and stroking it repeatedly, Zhao Lei went to the dining room and started tonight's dinner, feeling extremely relaxed.

He likes the scenery outside the window very much, the wide horse farm and the distant green grass, when the afterglow of the setting sun shines on it, there is a sense of beauty of the past.

Dining in this environment is always a pleasure.

So unable to bear it, Fifth Young Master Zhao Lei drank two more glasses.

He doesn't have many hobbies in his life, so this can be regarded as a rare pastime.

After eating, Zhao Lei stepped on the afterglow of the setting sun and walked to the residence.

He will read a few idle books in his room and then go to bed.

This is a habit that the fifth young master has developed for many years. His servants and guards have already prepared everything, and when he entered the small courtyard, they scattered in all directions without disturbing him.

Zhao Lei pushed the door open and entered, and there was still his favorite gardenia fragrance in the room.

After only a moment, his expression became serious.

It was due to the smell of blood in the air.

Zhao Lei couldn't help but drew out his saber, concentrating on it.

He found that the covering on his bed was arched, as if hiding a person.

Without any hesitation, Zhao Lei shouted, "Come on!"

There was no response, and it was quiet inside and outside the house, like a dead grave.

Zhao Lei endured the violent heartbeat and walked to the edge of the bed, holding a sword in one hand and lifting the quilt with the other.

It was like opening a fermenting jar, and the bloody smell, which was not strong at first, rushed to the face.

Zhao Lei sat down on the ground and let out a strange cry.

It wasn't the smell of blood that knocked him down, but the picture on the bed.

Lying on the bed is the head of a horse.

The skin of the horse's head is white, and the mane is silver, which is very beautiful.

But now this beauty is mixed with rich blood, and it has a broken beauty.

The horse's eyes were open, as if it was still alive.

But the bloody broken neck told him that it would never wake up again.

His most beloved treasure, Yinxue, was killed!

It was too late for the anger to spread, and the fear had completely occupied Fifth Young Master Zhao Lei's heart.

Involuntarily, he thought of his bodyguard, Uncle Li.

But guards are also human beings. Uncle Li is very strong, but he also has his own life.

There are two days in January when Uncle Li will go about his own business, and today happens to be the day when Uncle Li is not around.

The other party's method was like a sharp dagger, which suddenly hit his vitals.

Looking at the quiet courtyard, Zhao Lei only felt that he was put into a coffin.

He ventured out, and finally found traces of his bodyguards.

They weren't dead, they were just unconscious.

Traces of quicklime can be vaguely seen in those eyes that are either open or closed, and some people's eyes give people a feeling of being roasted.

There was even a faint smell of barbecue in the air, which made Zhao Lei's eyes hurt.

When he looked around, he always felt that there were one or two pairs of eyes watching him from a cold corner, just like when he and his brothers were in the attic and looked at Ning Kuan.

He can be sure that his complexion at this moment will definitely not be much better than that of Ning Kuan at that time.

Is this the Ning family's revenge?

After that day, the fifth young master of Zhao's family fell ill, very seriously ill.

After hearing what happened that day, the young masters of the Zhao family felt chills down their spines.

The protection of Lao Wu's whole body is not bad, but the other party can easily cut off the head of Lao Wu's Aiju, and put it on his bed silently.

And the experienced guards around him were silently cleaned up.

If the other party wanted to, the fifth child might have lost his life on the spot.

What scares them the most is not only the other party's elusive means, but also the other party's ability to collect intelligence.

Almost all the descendants of the Zhao family are protected by masters in the natal realm, but these masters are also human and need to rest.

There are always one or two days every month when these masters will deal with their own affairs and will not be with their young master for the time being.

But this kind of thing is strictly confidential, and there are no rules. Before the masters leave, there are even special people pretending to be them, giving people the illusion that they are by the young master of the Zhao family anytime, anywhere.

It's a pity that these arrangements were ruthlessly seen through by the other party.

The opponent is like an experienced snake catcher, if he doesn't make a move, he will hit the snake seven inches straight.

Needless to say, they also knew that this was the Ning family's revenge.

The Ning family didn't take any further action, and only killed a horse, which can be said to be a warning.

The young masters felt fear in their hearts, and even began to doubt whether the people around them had the Ning family's eyeliner.

In their cognition, apart from traitors, it was difficult to explain why the Ning family knew so well about the situation of the fifth child.

What they don't know is that some things are difficult for humans, but easy for a cat.

The cooperation between Ji Que and Lin Xiangzhi can be described as seamless. With the help of Maomao Lin Xiangzhi, Ji Que can be said to have opened the perspective.

The fourth child of the Zhao family did not sit still in the end, and told his father Zhao Wuji about the matter, but the response he got was - "solve your own affairs!".

He did keep his promise, he would not interfere with the younger generation's affairs.

In the quaint study, outside is the blue water and clear spring, Zhao Wou-ki heard the report from his subordinates, couldn't help but say two words - "Trash!".

This sentence does not specify who it is, it may be one person, or several people, but the first to bear the brunt is naturally the fifth son Zhao Lei.

That subordinate has been working hard with the Patriarch for decades, and he couldn't help but comfort him: "If the Ning family sent experts over this matter, it's really hard to prevent."

Zhao Wuji sneered and said: "I know better than you who Ning Chenghai is. I have a bottom line with him in this kind of thing, and he will not violate this bottom line."

On the surface, the aristocratic families and sects in the capital are not at odds with each other, but are fighting secretly, all because they have established rules.

The Zhao family's burning of the Ning's shop and the Shen Ning's boat were all done in secret. Without real evidence, there is no way to convict them, and they have their own sense of propriety.

From the beginning to the end, no one died in the Ning family, and similarly, no elders in the Zhao family took action.

The same is true of the Ning family's revenge. After all, they just killed a horse.

But this horse is enough to scare people's guts.

That incompetent son came to find him, which is enough to prove that they are afraid.

This fear is actually lost.

In this secret game, his son lost so uselessly, it was not a waste or something.

After Zhao Lei's horse was killed, the Zhao family stopped moving for a while, and the Ning family's frustrated business gradually recovered.

The burned street was rebuilt, and the shops were reopened one after another. Although it was still covered by a shadow, it was difficult to restore the original grand scene, but there was a beginning after all.

The merchant ships on the waterway have not sunk again, and the docks have become safe and sound. The most important thing is confidence.

Those who saw these changes confirmed that the Ning family had solved that terrible trouble.

The Ning family has been able to take root in the south for so many years, and it does have a solid foundation.

After half a month, Mr. Zhao's family sent someone to deliver a bag of tea, which was considered to be the end of this matter.

The bag of tea was small, and the tea leaves were unremarkable, but it showed their attitude of seeking peace.

The brothers of the Ning family looked at the tea leaves, and were shocked by Ji Que for a while, and they all asked Ji Que for advice on how he did it?

In their perception, the Zhao family is not someone who easily sues for peace.

Ji Que explained his way of doing things.

"You mean, you killed the fifth son of the Zhao family's most beloved horse, and frightened that guy?" The third son of the Ning family exclaimed in amazement.

For a moment, everyone in the Ning family had different expressions on their faces, as if they saw the scene where the fifth son of the Zhao family almost peed his pants when he saw the horse's head with his own eyes.

"Speaking of it, you young masters have too much. You look imposing, but you are actually afraid of death."

Ji Que couldn't help boasting again: "Unlike me, there are only a few houses, which are crumbling and crumbling, and there is a deep hole for no reason. Barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes, that's all."

After all, he used a technique from a movie he watched in his previous life.

It's just that the big boss in the movie calls the wind and calls the rain, so he doesn't have to do it himself, but he needs to bring Lin Xiangzhi to do it himself.

He spoke lightly, but the second child of the Ning family who is good at thinking still couldn't help asking: "How did you do this?"

What he was referring to, of course, was that Ji Que could easily kill his horse and put it on the opponent's bed when the fifth member of the Zhao family was in charge and the guards were tight.

You must know that to make this happen, the control of timing is very strict.

They knew that Ji Que only asked his father for four thousand taels of silver, and the Zhao family's guards could not be bought easily with four thousand taels.

Ji Que replied: "Of course I have my own methods."

For a while, the young masters of the Ning family couldn't help but be more convinced by Ji Que, and even felt that he was a little unpredictable.

They were convinced of Ji Que's fighting power before, after all, he was a guy who could deal with the four major direct disciples of Zhu Xiang, but this time, Ji Que was just right, whether it was the means of revenge, or the sense of propriety in doing things. They have to admire.

Without killing anyone, he did hurt the young masters of the Zhao family.

They were quite dissatisfied with the decision made by their father at first, but now they gradually realized that their Ning family seemed to have really found a treasure.

On the flower bed outside the house, Lin Xiangzhi, who turned into a white cat, looked at Ji Que's "pretentious" look with contempt.

In fact, she is the biggest contributor to the success of this matter.

Damn, he's so playful and annoying, yet I still help him!

Lin Xiangzhi couldn't help but said angrily.

But seeing Ji Que being admired by the Ning family brothers, she couldn't help but feel happy in her heart.

You can't do anything without me.

On the other side of the Ning Mansion, the head of the Ning family, Ning Chenghai, couldn't help laughing when he heard the old housekeeper's report.

"I really want to knock open this kid's head and see what's inside, but I can think of such a way."

In this spring day, the weather became warmer and warmer, and Ning Chenghai, who was originally serious and difficult, became more and more kind.

On the other side, the second son of the Zhao family still saw his father.

The second son of the Zhao family, Zhao Yu, was well dressed, but there was always a stern look in his eyes.

He looked at his father, Zhao Wuji, and said calmly: "My younger brothers were frightened by the Ning family, but I was not. I'm sure that the Ning family is just bluffing, and they dare not continue to follow."

Zhao Wuji looked at his son, and replied: "What's the point of this strife of loyalty?"

"But my Zhao family shouldn't be the one to admit defeat." Zhao Yu responded.

"When you do things, you have to take a long-term perspective. Sometimes you are particularly angry about things. In fact, if you stretch the time a little longer, you will find that it is nothing more than that. You should have heard me say about the treasure house of the Ning Family God of Wealth." Zhao Wuji wrote lightly.

Zhao Yu's expression became serious all of a sudden, and he said, "The Treasure House of the God of Wealth?"

Zhao Wou-ki said lightly: "This is the lifeblood of the Ning family. As long as we get it, or even destroy this treasure house, this will undoubtedly break the foundation of the Ning family. This is much more deadly than killing a horse or his mother." .”

"But the treasure house of the God of Wealth is so important, the Ning family must have guarded it very closely." Zhao Yu analyzed.

"The Ning family has the means to know the whereabouts of your fifth younger brother's bodyguard, Uncle Li, and do it at the most suitable time, but my Zhao family is not blind in the Ning family." Zhao Wou-ki talked eloquently.

"Father's meaning."

Zhao Wou-ki nodded, and said: "This matter has been planned for far longer than you imagined, and the marriage is not a temporary idea of ​​mine. If you want to win or lose, just wait until the beginning of summer. Let's play a big game with the Ning family." of."

Hearing this, Zhao Yu, the second young master of the Zhao family, couldn't help showing excitement in his eyes, and the expression between his brows and eyes was even more serious.

Zhao Wuji looked at him and shook his head, and said: "Yu'er, sometimes the emotion between your eyebrows and eyes is too obvious, this is not a good thing."

Zhao Yu said helplessly, "Father, you don't know that I was born like this. I was born like this, even the nurse shook her head when she saw me, and she was even afraid of me when I was older. I only found out later that she thought I was It seemed like I was going to do something bad, but I really didn’t think about anything.”
