Chapter 867 Massacre
The moment the head fell to the ground, a shrill roar came from the main hall.
The eldest son of the Gu family in Yushu Linfeng rushed out like a madman with a horizontal knife, his blood-red eyes stared at Xi Junmai on the horse, and his eyes were splitting as he said: "I recognize you! You are a general under Fang Jun's command!" I just want to ask you, what is the crime of my Gu family to suffer such killing?”
What's your crime in caring for your family?
hehe!
A family that has lost all humanity and has no conscience, even something worse than an animal, dares to say "What's wrong with the Gu family?"
Xi Junmai didn't bother to pay attention to this self-proclaimed guy. He clamped his legs between the horse's belly and the horse raised its hooves and rushed up the steps in front of the main hall. Seeing the thief being so arrogant, Gu Zhu was so angry that he gritted his teeth, but he did not dare to face the charge of the war horse and had to step aside.
Unexpectedly, Xi Junmai didn't even look at him. Then he pressed the saddle with one hand and flew up like a big bird. As soon as he landed, he rushed straight into the main hall.
How had Gu Zhu ever been ignored like this?
The most arrogant person was so angry that he screamed and wanted to rush up and fight with Xi Jun. Unfortunately, before he could take a step forward, two bowstrings rang out behind him, and two crossbow arrows pierced his back.
Gu Zhu screamed and fell forward, and then his vision went dark. A soldier rushed up from behind and stood in front of him, stabbing his vest with a knife.
"Ouch..."
Gu Zhu let out an earth-shattering roar and struggled desperately.
He was the head of the "Four Young Masters in the South of the Yangtze River", the "horse of a thousand miles" of the Gu family, a rising star in the Jiangnan Shilin, a man destined to honor his ancestors and go down in history. How could he die like this at the hands of a dirty and despicable soldier?
Unfortunately, before he could scream again, another soldier had already wiped his neck with a horizontal knife.
With blood spurting out from his throat, Gu Zhu watched in despair as a group of soldiers rushed past him into the main hall, not even bothering to look at him...
On one side are brave and powerful elite soldiers, on the other side are the pampered children of aristocratic families. The battle process can be described as effortless.
kill!
The soldiers were so furious that they killed every man in the house, young and old, with a knife!
The Gu family's old house was filled with miserable howls, corpses everywhere, and blood everywhere.
Blood and water mixed with rain flowed freely, and this exquisite and luxurious house still became a hell on earth.
They were blocked from the front, rear, left and right by navy soldiers, and there was no way to escape.
Naturally, such a brutal killing cannot be concealed. The neighbors had already heard the screams and curses in the Gu family courtyard, and they were all so shocked that they couldn't help themselves. Who dares to kill the Gu family, a wealthy family in Jiangdong, in broad daylight?
Is there any more royal method?
Indignation is certain, and condemnation is also necessary, but no one is stupid enough to draw a sword to help when there is injustice. When someone with good intentions hid in the street and secretly saw that the perpetrators in the yard were well-armored officers and soldiers, their anger turned into consternation.
How big of a crime did the Gu family have to commit to deserve to be massacred by their entire family?
*****
Mu Yuanzuo, the governor of Suzhou, felt as if his butt was on fire. He kept whipping the horses, leading the soldiers and servants from the state government office, and rushed straight to the old house of the Gu family, regardless of the heavy rain that would destroy the brand new house. The official robe, worn several times, got wet and stained with dirty muddy water.
The governor first received a report from the soldiers guarding the city, saying that officers and soldiers of the Royal Navy entered the city on horseback, seeming to be looking for bad luck on someone. Immediately afterwards, someone came to report that a group of soldiers had rushed into the Gu family's old house, and there were screams in the house...
Mu Yuanzuo took it for granted that the two brothers of the Gu family had provoked Fang Jun somewhere, which made the Marquis of Bangchui become so angry that he knocked on the door regardless of...
As he walked, the governor cursed silently...
Damn Fang Jun, can't you just guard your one-third of an acre of land? You have to go to my rule to cause trouble! Do you really think that I am made of clay? The whole Jiangnan knows that you are not on good terms with the two younger generations of the Gu family. If you want to vent your anger and protect your reputation as the number one playboy in Chang'an, I won't stop you!
But sending troops into the city and breaking into the Gu family's old house is going too far, right?
After all, the Gu family is one of the most wealthy families in Jiangdong, and they have a good reputation. If you bully them like this, aren't you just showing off to fight?
You must know that this is Suzhou, under the rule of me, Mu Yuanzuo, not your Fang Jun’s Huating Town!
Governor Mu made up his mind to be tough this time to let Fang Jun know that he, the Governor of Suzhou, was not a vegetarian, let alone let him crush him into a round shape! He encouraged himself secretly, so what about Fang Jun? What about the Prince Consort? What about Mr. Hou? You have to abide by the rules and obey the laws of the Tang Dynasty!
But when he arrived at the gate of Gu's house and looked inside, he saw the blood and blood flowing from the corpses all over the ground. His pride was immediately shattered, and his heart was chilled by the heavy rain...
Oh my God!
What is this for?
Holding the door of the Gu family's old house, Mu Yuanzuo felt that his eyes were going dark, his legs were weak, and his buttocks were trembling.
How many people must have died?
This girl is looking for someone's bad luck, she is clearly trying to destroy her family...
Fang Jun, Fang Jun, do you want to fly or what? !
Mu Yuanzuo felt a chill in his heart choking him, and it was very difficult to breathe.
He couldn't believe his eyes...
Could it be that he was really dreaming?
But the intermittent screams in the back house made him know that he had to face the cruel reality - the whole Gu family was slaughtered, who should bear this responsibility?
He wanted to enter the house to see what was going on, but was stopped by two soldiers guarding the door.
These two leading soldiers didn't care at all about Mu Yuanzuo's third-grade official robe. After living in Guanzhong for a long time, even first- and second-grade officials were often found. What was a third-grade official? What's more, he's still a third-grade servant...
"Stop! What are you doing? The navy is doing business, and the idlers are avoiding it!"
This sentence comes from Fang Jun's impression of Jin Yiwei in his previous life, and he said it jokingly several times. Naturally, these hard-working people in the Navy did not know the weight represented by the phrase "Jin Yiwei is doing things, and idlers are avoiding". They simply thought that this phrase was very powerful, and it gradually became a mantra of the Navy officers and soldiers.
Mu Yuanzuo almost died of anger!
Perhaps these words sounded domineering to the navy soldiers, but to Mu Yuanzuo, they sounded like an unabashed provocation!
I am the dignified governor of Suzhou, and this is my territory!
He gritted his back molars, resisting the desire to kill these two arrogant soldiers, and said coldly: "I am the governor of Suzhou, and this place is under my rule. Who gave you the courage to dare?" Let me dodge?”
Suzhou governor?
The two soldiers looked at each other in surprise.
Just when Mu Yuanzuo thought that the two men had realized how superior their official positions were and were about to panic and admit their mistake, the soldier on the left rolled his eyes and said in a weird voice: "The governor of Suzhou is a god. Horse stuff? ”
Mu Yuanzuo is going crazy. Are all Bangchui's subordinates also Bangchui?
The dignified Suzhou governor and imperial official was actually called a "toy"?
It was unbearable, and Mu Yuanzuo didn't care to break up with Fang Jun, and immediately shouted angrily: "Come here! Capture these two thieves who despise the imperial officials!"
He can't wait any longer!
The screams one after another in the house meant that the killing was still going on, and he had to stop it immediately!
He was wailing in his heart. The former Suzhou governor had never sent troops to rescue Fang Jun when he was surrounded by Niuzhuji, and he was never dismissed from his post and investigated by the court. Suzhou is the most prosperous place in the world, so it has naturally become the focus of competition among all parties and they are in a stalemate.
Mu Yuanzuo obtained this position precisely by virtue of his status as an outsider and by giving Changsun Wuji a sky-high sum of money. How could he still be able to sit still if he encountered a huge event like the entire Gu family being killed just after he took office?
Fang Jun, you bastard, I won’t stop you from killing whoever you want, but why don’t you wait a year and a half and allow me to profit from the investment in buying an official position before causing trouble?
What a fucking bastard!
The government soldiers and government officials behind him swarmed forward, trying to subdue the two soldiers.
When the two soldiers saw something bad, they immediately clenched the Hengdao in their hands and said in a cold voice: "I have military orders with you, so I don't dare to push you away. If the governor wants to enter the house, then he can step over our two bodies." Go!”(End of Chapter)
