Spring and Autumn I Am King

Chapter 38: Welcome to the middle door

Thanks to the book friend Mei Huajin for the reward, I recommend it today, three more.

Uncle Cheng wiped his tears and said, "Aweng, the two concubines who were supposed to be buried for my uncle escaped yesterday, Aji took someone to arrest them, and said that he would take this opportunity to drive into Sangli, Douli, and Jia. Go inside and turn the three villains who changed their homes to the ground!"

"What!" Cheng Weng was inexplicably horrified.

"How many people did he take? Where is he now?"

"More than 200 people, most of the men in the four li of my Cheng clan followed me. No news has come back yet. Probably, they have already arrived in Jiali."

Cheng Weng collapsed instantly, full of despair, he slapped the wooden couch: "How dare Aji do this! Now is the time to keep a low profile, my Cheng clan may still have a chance! If I go to provoke a gentleman again If you don't have a shirt, you're looking for a dead end!"

Cheng Weng had a phlegm attack and almost fainted again.

The room suddenly panicked again.

However, the scene outside the house was even more chaotic. The screams and the sound of running away continued to enter the room, followed by a rush of footsteps in the distance, as if hundreds of soldiers were marching in line.

Cheng Weng asked feebly, "What's going on outside?"

Several members of the Cheng clan who got in from outside the house trembled, and said in trembling voices: "Aweng, it's a gentleman without shirts. He led a large group of men and horses, dressed in armor and armed with soldiers, and surrounded the manor!"

Cheng's manor was besieged? Uncle Cheng's eyes were dull after hearing this, and he sat on the floor with his buttocks, and all the clansmen were also frightened.

"Hahaha, good, what a gentleman without a shirt, worthy of being the descendant of the Zhao family, the bloodline of the Profound Bird of Destiny, at the age of thirteen, he can be so ruthless and decisive!"

Cheng Weng, however, seemed to return to the light, he laughed dryly to the sky, pushed away his son and clansmen who wanted to help him, and stood up again with his body supported.

A clan member came over and said nonchalantly, "Aweng, do you want to call the clan to take precautions?"

"Snapped!"

But it was Cheng Weng who pulled the dove stick and smashed his head to the point of bloodshed!

"Prevent? How to take precaution! Do you think my Cheng clan's situation is not bad enough? In case a gentleman reports to the lower palace without a shirt, saying that we have openly gathered a crowd to rebel and lead a brigade of Zhao soldiers to attack, in addition to giving the head and destroying the family, we can also What should I do? From the beginning, it was a mistake!"

"It's my fault too. After returning to this small town in Chengxiang and living there for several years, my vision has narrowed, and I can't recognize a true gentleman, and I try to fight against him..."

"Aon, what should we do now?"

Cheng Weng took a few heavy breaths, narrowed his eyes slightly, and finally regained some of the shrewdness he had when serving Wenzi and Jingzi.

As of now, there is no other way.

"Change clothes, open the middle door to welcome guests!"

……

Let the two Sima Yang Tong Rong and the township Situ Dou Pengzu take some of the people to stay under the big mulberry tree to watch over the more than two hundred Cheng clan members. Zhao Wuxi led the rest of the army, the elite and the strong, and marched towards the four li of the Cheng clan.

The night was already dark, and the team of as many as three or four hundred people was mixed, and with the maintenance of the township Sima Wang Sunqi, it was still able to maintain order. This made Wu Xie take another look at Wang Sunqi, who knew that his prestige was also at play.

Under the ulterior motives of propaganda of the gods who became witches in the past, the deeds of Wu Xie's "single riding alone drinking more than 200 people" under the big mulberry tree quickly spread among the people. When they looked at Wu Xie, they also changed from love to reverence. When they marched, they consciously obeyed the order and did not dare to follow their temperament.

What's more, the people of Sanli have accumulated a lot of resentment against the arrogant and greedy Cheng clan in the past, and they can follow the village slaughter to beat the underdogs, why not do it?

They lit torches made of pine bright and firewood, like a long bright dragon, and arrived at Cheng's Manor one after another, completely surrounding its front.

This is the first time Wu Xie has come to Chengli. After a glance, he realizes that the Cheng clan, as the richest man here, and the century-old clan that tops Qili, is also quite confident. No wonder he dares to oppose him madly.

The front of Cheng's Manor is a wall of mountains and stones, with a wall of two people's height. There is a door in the wall. It is made of strong and heavy wood and made of copper willow nails. Above the door is a hard mountain-style watchtower, which can accommodate three people to stand on it and shoot arrows down, and the top is covered with blue-gray tiles. As for whether it is used to guard against thieves, or to guard against Zhao Wuxi and others, it can only be a matter of opinion.

Unless there are distinguished guests, the middle door will not be opened at will.

This high wall almost completely blocked the passage into and out of the Cheng Family's Four Miles. According to the boy who raised a dog, he and his sister came out of an unknown dog hole.

Therefore, if something happens, the Cheng clan can retreat and defend. Cheng Wu described that there are farmland, mulberry fields, granary, government treasury, etc., which are completely self-sufficient and independent of the township and temple system.

On both sides of the stone wall, there are rammed earth walls with a height of one person, which will eventually be integrated with the Chengyi township wall, with a side door opened on it. There is a small eye hole on the door, and now it seems that someone is prying out from behind, but they are so frightened by the crowd that they don't even dare to come out.

"Lord, let someone cut down a big tree, knock the door open, and then use me as the vanguard to rush in! Kill him and leave him alone!" This was Tian Ben's suggestion. It's something he's very passionate about.

"Why is it so troublesome, my lord, this wall is so short that I can climb over it, as long as I kill the gatekeeper and open the bolt from the inside?" Yu Xi, who was agile, came over and made this suggestion.

Wang Sunqi silently stepped forward and poured cold water: "Young gentleman, have you thought about the consequences of using force?"

Zhao Wuxi was still pondering. To be honest, he just followed the trend today because of the sudden incident, but he didn't think about how to deal with the Cheng family.

Since Zhao Wuxi has become the village chief, he can't tolerate the existence of such a powerful independent force as the Cheng clan within his own territory! Therefore, he must destroy the "wall" separating Cheng's family from the outside world, or at least make it no threat.

But on the other hand, Cheng Weng is a three-generation old official. There are not many such people in the Zhao family, and Wu Xian must pay attention to public opinion. The reputation of forcing the old minister to death is not very pleasant, and it will be troublesome for the retainers who govern other counties in the future.

Therefore, unless Wu Xie loses his heart and goes crazy, he will really play the kind of brutality that the reckless man Tian Ben is keen on~www.wuxiahere.com~ Today is the Spring and Autumn Period, and it is important to not destroy the ancestral temple in destroying the country, not to mention the retainers whose sins do not end in death?

If so, Wu Xian's life will probably leave a **** stain, which will be very disadvantageous for him to compete for the support of other retainers and to compete for the throne of the Zhao family, not to mention that in the next year, he wants to lose half of the population. What political achievements have Chengyi Township made?

After sister Ji Ying heard about it, she would probably be disappointed too.

At this moment, a pair of eyes appeared at the side of the eyes, and he shouted to the outside in a loud voice: "The owner said, the village chief is here, and if you miss the distance to welcome you, don't worry, I will open the middle door to welcome the guests. !"

Welcome to the middle door?

Zhao Wu Xie's subordinates looked at each other in dismay, Wu Xie also looked at Cheng Wu who knew the details of Cheng's family, he secretly thought that Cheng's family was really smart and didn't take a stance of resistance. But that's fine. Don't look at the fact that the people of Sanli Guoye follow Wu Xie to support the scene, and they are aggressive, but the only reliable combatants are actually the 20 or 30 Zhao Bing from the lower palace, and the rest are cheerleaders.

So he waved his hand and said, "The order goes on, and no one is allowed to act rashly. Those who violate the order will be dealt with by family law!"

Squeak, squeak, the middle door in Chengli has not been opened for a long time, maybe a month, maybe a year, the dust and dirt that have accumulated for a long time keep falling down. The crack of the door gradually widened, and the people on both sides of the door finally saw the situation on the opposite side.

For the first time, Zhao Wuxi had a face-to-face with his "opponent" this time, the old patriarch of the Cheng clan.

The second one is after 14:00, please collect and recommend...
