I'm the villain in the book

Chapter 268 "Stand" Dispute
Anhuamen Street, Liufu.

More than a hundred imperial guards almost filled the entire main hall, and there were even more outside the house.

In the light of daylight, Liu Zhongchun finished reading the last letter "proving" that Guy Liu conspired against the Xu family with his usual expression, and bowed his head in silence for a long time.

"how?"

At this moment, Wei Xianzhi couldn't help feeling uneasy, but his expression was still stern.

"Master Liu, what else do you have to say?"

"."

Liu Zhongchun raised his head and shook his head lightly.

"Since all the evidence is here, what else can I say."

"Then you have pleaded guilty?" Wei Xianzhi felt even more uneasy.

"A guilty plea."

Liu Zhongchun looked at Wei Xianzhi, and sighed softly after a long while: "Master Wei, since you brought the imperial guards here tonight, what difference does it make if I plead guilty or not?"

"The emperor has decided that my Liu family will rebel, so what do you want me to say?"

"."

It has to be said that it is not easy for someone to sit in a high position.

Just a few words showed that Liu Zhongchun had already figured everything out.

He knows best whether the Liu family has teamed up with the Xu family to rebel against him, and since this happened at this time, it means that Ning Yongnian has decided to sacrifice the Liu family in exchange for temporary stability in Daning.

He had even guessed the fate of himself, including hundreds of members of the Liu family, as well as the big and small officials who followed the Liu family.

"Master Wei, if I'm not mistaken."

With a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, Liu Zhongchun glanced at the rows of Liu family members kneeling outside the house, and asked softly:
"The fate of my Liu family should be to punish the Jiu Clan, right?"

According to the law of Daning, those who seek rebellion will be punished by the nine clans, and they will be executed immediately.

The word "cut" means that the prisoner can be killed on the spot without trial.

"Lord Liu, just act according to the law."

Wei Xianzhi's tone was still calm, but for the first time his brows were slightly wrinkled.

Judging from his experience of interrogating countless prisoners, the more calm a person behaves when he knows he must die, the more likely he will not die.

This may sound like a contradiction, but it is.

"call!"

He raised his right hand and waved behind him.

"Curacho!"

Hundreds of long knives were suddenly unsheathed, and the next moment they were placed on the necks of every Liu family member.

Late changes, Wei Xianzhi decided not to wait any longer.

"Master Liu, I know you already understand what's going on in your heart."

"If the person kneeling here tonight is a member of my Wei family, I believe you will not be lenient."

"So don't blame me for doing this now."

"."

There was a sudden silence in the main hall, as if even the hoarse begging and wailing outside the house became ethereal at this moment.

In many film and television works in the previous life, no matter the decent villain is about to kill the enemy, he will be very ink-stained for a long time.

Of course, no matter how long it takes to be honest, the enemy deserves to die.

And even if the villain just uttered one more word, the plot would probably undergo a shocking reversal within the time of this one word.

Most of the audience are used to this kind of approach. Although they understand that this is actually the fault of the screenwriter, they sometimes can't help complaining about "the villain dies because of talking too much".

But what everyone doesn't know is that when a person is in this moment, expressing what is in his heart is actually an instinct.

As for whether there will be a reversal in reality
"Master Wei, you are right. If it were me, I would not be soft-hearted."

Facing Wei Xianzhi's last "truth" before making a move, Liu Zhongchun just smiled wryly and shook his head: "This time the Liu family really lost, I admit it."

"I know I can't keep those officials, big and small."

"But I still want to see if I can save the lives of hundreds of people in my Liu family."

The red light of hundreds of torches flickers, but there are always corners that are not illuminated.

Wei Xianzhi stared at Liu Zhongchun with a cold tone.

"Master Liu, I don't think you can do it."

"Maybe, but it's worth trying anyway."

Liu Zhongchun looked back, and slowly said word by word:
"Lord Wei, even though you haven't leaked any news before, you still brought more than a thousand imperial guards to surround Liu's mansion. Presumably you are afraid that my Liu family still has the strength to resist."

"However, have you ever seen how many people resisted?"

"Master Wei, you haven't thought about those warriors who are loyal to my Liu family."

"Where are you now?"

"boom!"

"Protect Madam!!"

"Go to hell!"

"Run away!"

"Hold!"

"."

Just when Liu Zhongchun's words made Wei Xianzhi break out in a cold sweat, hundreds of warriors who had been hiding in the capital for a long time had entered the Wei residence.

These people are the few remaining "armed forces" of the Liu family in the capital. Compared with the entire Xuanjing Division, there is a huge difference in combat power. There are only two third-ranks, and there are only more than a hundred middle-ranked third-ranks.

However, it was enough to attack the Wei Mansion, which was not fully prepared.

In fact, Wei Xianzhi cannot be blamed for this.

The "defense" level of the entire Wei Mansion has always been full. Even if there is a big move tonight, almost [-] people from the Xuanjing Division will go to Qingdangliu to send officials, but there are still nearly [-] people left for daily vigilance.

This is enough to be cautious, after all, there is a second-rank ancestor in the family.

From Wei Xianzhi's point of view, he was going to "catch the cicada" tonight, who would have thought that this "cicada" would bite him back at the moment of death.

Of course, all of this was not arranged by Liu Zhongchun in advance.

This was just the order he gave the first time he realized something was wrong.

Strictly speaking, Liu Zhongchun didn't know why Wei Xianzhi led the Imperial Guards to surround the Liu Mansion at that time, and he didn't know whether his own people could break into the Wei Mansion.
But it was this "gambling" decision, but now it seems that it is really possible to exchange the lives of hundreds of people in the Liu family.

"what!"

"Help me!!"

"Do not kill me!"

"Everyone guard me!! Our people will be here soon!!"

"."

The chaotic and noisy shouts came into the room clearly, and then passed into the ears of Lu Jingyao and Yuan'er.

The two of them had never heard or seen such a scene before, and now their faces were pale with fright.

But after all, they are all people who have been tied up once, so it's not like they just sit down.

"Ma'am, hurry up and hide under the bed! If bandits break in, I will lure them away!"

Qiuyun panicked and opened the bed curtain, trying to push Lu Jingyao to the bottom of the bed.

But the latter held her hand firmly.

"Qiu Yun, you hide in too!"

"Ma'am! Gangsters are not stupid! Hurry up! It's too late!"

"I was right!"

Lu Jingyao suddenly seemed to remember something.

"We can hide in the secret passage!"

"The secret passage has long been blocked!"

Qiu Yun wanted to cry but had no tears, so she desperately pushed Lu Jingyao to the bottom of the bed, and the next moment...
"boom!"

The door of the room was kicked open suddenly, and several bloody men with knives rushed in.

"found it!"
