Chapter 178

dungeon.

Dim light, dirty environment, and depressive atmosphere.

Zheng Chang's face was pale and his eyes were blank. He was stunned for a long time before he finally raised his head with difficulty and stopped talking.

In the end, nothing was said.

"Zheng Chang."

Wang Shiquan's deep voice sounded.

"grown ups?"

"How long have you been with me?"

"Almost 20 years..."

"20 years..."

Through the prison window, Wang Shiquan looked into the distance and said solemnly: "In the blink of an eye, it's been 20 years..."

"This time, my Wang family may not be able to escape this catastrophe!"

Zheng Chang trembled slightly, his face became paler: "My lord, is there nothing we can do?"

Wang Shiquan was silent.

Zheng Chang gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "It's not the worst yet, we still have a chance..."

Unexpectedly, Wang Shiquan waved his hand lightly, interrupted him, and said in a deep voice: "It's useless, our Wang family is doomed!"

Zheng Chang said in a deep voice: "My lord, please don't be so pessimistic. We have not been without foundation in Xunyang County these years... Even though we suffered heavy losses this time, we still have green hills and don't have to worry about having no firewood, my lord..."

"They won't give us this chance!"

Seeing Wang Shiquan's sad smile, Zheng Chang's pupils shrank.

"When our royal family gained power, those people naturally followed suit. Now that they are in such a catastrophe, how can they let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?"

"Don't talk about sending charcoal in the snow, it's fine if you don't step on it a few times."

"They dare?!"

Zheng Chang's eyes were filled with anger: "They and our Wang family will both prosper and suffer. If something happens to our Wang family, they will not end well!"

Wang Shiquan shook his head slightly, closed his eyes, and looked a little more tired.

"Over the years, the major families have gradually developed rifts with our Wang family, and our Wang family has gradually become a thorn in their side, just like the Jiang family back then, not to mention..."

As if thinking of something, a trace of despair flashed in Wang Shiquan's eyes: "Yuan Zhongnan, I'm afraid he also wants to kill our Wang family!"

"I have known too much over the years, and the threat to him is too great... This time our Wang family loses power, he will never let me leave here alive."

Zheng Chang was startled, with a look of panic on his face: "Sir..."

Wang Shiquan waved his hand and interrupted him: "Listen to me."

"I don't regret my death, but the Wang family can't end... I still have evidence that makes Yuan Zhongnan afraid, and he dare not kill them all."

Wang Shiquan raised his head and stared at Zheng Chang: "Zheng Chang, you have been with me for more than twenty years. Now that the Wang family is facing life and death, everything depends on you!"

Zheng Chang's heart trembled, and he immediately understood what the lord meant: "My lord, just give me orders, and my subordinates will not let you down!"

Wang Shiquan took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice: "Our Wang family is probably really doomed this time. Once the Wang family falls, the old families in Xunyang County will definitely not let you go..."

Could it be that the Wang family has become another Jiang family?
Their fate will not be any better than that of the Jiang family.

"I will exchange the evidence I have with Yuan Zhongnan and let him let you go... You find a way to find Qin'er, take the wife and the others away from here, stay away from Xunyang County, the farther the better, go to the southwest, when the time comes , someone will take care of you..."

In the dark dungeon, Wang Shiquan spoke in a deep voice, explaining the funeral.

Anticipating such a day would come, Wang Shiquan prepared a way out in advance.

"Don't worry, my lord, my subordinates will definitely protect the safety of my wife and young master."

Zheng Chang felt heavy in his heart and gritted his teeth.Your Excellency has been so kind to him, and now that he is in danger, he must find a way to protect his wife and son no matter what, and leave a heir for the Wang family.

……

In the dungeon, just as Wang Shiquan was explaining his funeral in a deep voice, a figure sneaked into the dungeon quietly.

Behind you, at the door.

Several city defense troops wearing green armor were lying down, but there was no movement.

Under the dim light, the touch of red dress is amazing and moving.

"Who?!"

In the dungeon, two city defense troops soon discovered the existence of this uninvited guest.

But just as they reacted and stretched out their hands to pull out the weapons at their waists, the red-clothed figure passed by like an afterimage, bringing with it a sharp wind.

In the next second, the two city defenders didn't even have a chance to react, and fell down softly without a sound.

The means are sharp and merciless.

After taking care of the two city guards casually, the red-clothed glanced around the dungeon with indifferent eyes, and walked towards the depths of the dungeon.

Deep in the dungeon.

Wang Shiquan breathed a sigh of relief after explaining his funeral arrangements.He has made up his mind to die, but his family is his biggest concern.

Zheng Chang beside him had slightly red eyes: "My lord..."

He has been with you for more than [-] years, so why don't you have deep feelings for him?

Now that he realizes that he will be separated from his lord, he will inevitably feel a burst of sadness in his heart.

How could he not realize that my lord, he wanted to sacrifice himself to preserve the blood of the Wang family!
"Don't be sad, I've expected such a day, but I didn't expect it to come so soon!"

Wang Shiquan's expression gradually calmed down. When he heard the news of Lin Wang's son's death that day, he realized that the Wang family was about to face disaster.

It's just that I never thought that things would come to this point.

Prince Lin is not dead!

But the Wang family has reached a dead end.

Wang Shiquan wanted to say something, but out of the corner of his eye, he glanced out of the cell window, and happened to catch a glimpse of a red dress.

"Who?"

Wang Shiquan looked up and saw a figure standing outside the cell.

a woman!
Dressed in a red dress!

She has a beautiful appearance and cold eyes.

beautiful!

But for some reason, Wang Shiquan's eyelids twitched suddenly, and an ominous premonition hit him.

"Who are you?!"

Wang Shiquan spoke in a deep voice, staring at the woman in red at the door.

never seen it.

Very strange!
outside the cell.

The woman in red looked at the two people in the cell with cold eyes and spoke coldly.

"The one who sent you on your way!"

"..."

The sky is bright.

In Xunyang City, there is an inn in the western suburbs, in the backyard.

A figure dressed in red quietly fell into the courtyard and walked quickly to the door of a room.

Push open the door and walk in.

"Saint, are you back?!"

In the room, Ling'er, who was dozing off at the table, heard a trembling step and stood up excitedly.The next second, he spoke in panic: "Holy girl, are you injured?"

"No."

Liu Su opened his mouth expressionlessly, and glanced at the dress on his body.

The red skirt was stained with a lot of blood. Although it was not obvious, there was a strong smell of blood on her body.

She frowned slightly, forgetting when she accidentally got it?
"That's good!"

Only then did Ling'er heave a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said, "Saint, I'll prepare hot water for you to bathe and change clothes!"

Ling'er quickly prepared hot water, Liu Su bathed and changed clothes, washed off the dust and blood, changed clothes and returned to the room, sat in front of the bronze mirror, Ling'er stood behind the saint, and carefully combed the saint's hair.

"Saint, what, what's the matter?"

Through the bronze mirror, Ling'er carefully looked at the saint in the glasses.Uneasy in my heart, I asked tentatively.

"solved."

Liu Su spoke expressionlessly.

"solved?"

Ling'er was startled, and still hadn't recovered: "People from the Wang family..."

"died."

"All dead?"

Ling'er opened her eyes wide, seeing the calm expression of the saint, her heart skipped a beat.

Everyone in the Wang family...are all dead? !
Holy Maiden last night...

but……

Ling'er quickly wondered, since everyone in the Wang family was dead, why did the saint still look... not very happy?

Just when Ling'er was wondering and thinking wildly, there was a sudden sound of footsteps in the yard outside the door.

Immediately afterwards, a deep voice sounded.

"Liu Su!"

The rough and deep voice was vaguely filled with anger.

"Big elder?!"

Ling'er opened her eyes wide and spoke with worry on her face: "Holy girl, I'm afraid the First Elder is here to hold me to account..."

In front of the bronze mirror, Liu Su looked into those cold eyes in the mirror, her murderous intent never subsided.

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. After a long time, when she opened them again, the indifference and murderous aura dissipated a lot.

"I gonna go see!"

Liu Su said expressionlessly, slowly stood up, opened the door and walked out.

in the courtyard.

The Great Elder in a gray robe stood in the courtyard, followed by several people. Seeing Liu Su's appearance, the Great Elder's face was gloomy and ugly: "Liu Su, who told you to act without authorization?!"

Liu Su glanced at him, her gaze was calm: "Is there a problem?"

Hearing this lukewarm tone, the great elder suddenly became angry: "Do you still take me seriously?!"

Liu Su said calmly: "I just follow the orders of the leader, what's the problem?"

"But I didn't ask you to do it now!!"

The great elder's face was ugly. He never expected that Liu Su would act without permission behind his back.

"Do you know, you are trying to scare the snake?!"

Liu Su glanced at him, and said expressionlessly: "The members of the Wang family have been arrested, and it will be too late if you don't do anything!"

"Who told you that all members of the Wang family have been arrested?"

The First Elder stared at her coldly: "Although something happened to the Wang family, it won't happen for a while. More importantly, Wang Changjin's whereabouts are still unknown..."

"Killing members of the Wang family is nothing more than alerting the enemy. If something goes wrong, can you afford the consequences?!"

Facing the great elder's questioning, Liu Su only felt noisy and irritable.

He was already in a bad mood, and his eyes were even colder and unkind at the moment.

"Killing them is the order of the leader. This saint can do it whenever she wants!"

Liu Su glanced at her coldly: "If you are not convinced, you can go to the leader and sue the saint!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Su stopped talking to the elders in the courtyard and turned back to her room.

"boom!"

The door is closed.

In the courtyard, the Great Elder stared at the closed door with unforgivable anger.

He never expected that Liu Su would not even give him half of face now.

Are you trying to break up with him in public?
"Elder, what should we do now?"

Beside him came the cautious voice of a member of the Deity Sect.

This time they came to Xunyang City under the orders of the leader to eradicate the Xunyang prefect and the Wang family.

Cut the weeds!

But since arriving in Xunyang City, too many changes have happened.

The grievances between the Wang family and Prince Lin caused a major change in the direction of Xunyang City, and their identities were almost exposed.

They had already made a plan and planned to do it quietly, but they didn't expect that the sudden situation last night caught them by surprise.

The great elder immediately changed his mind, but he didn't expect Liu Su to go his own way and sneaked into the dungeon of the prefect's mansion behind their backs...

As a result, the original deployment was completely disrupted.

"Wang Changjin is still alive and his whereabouts are unknown. He must still know some secrets..."

The elder looked gloomy at the closed room: "If something happens, I'll see how Liu Su will explain it to the leader!"

Taking another deep breath, the Great Elder gradually calmed down.

"The people of the Wang family are dead, Xunyang City will definitely be in chaos, this Xunyang City can't wait any longer, let everyone evacuate Xunyang City quickly!"

"ASAP!!"

"..."

early morning.

inside the room.

Lin Jiangnian, who was sleeping soundly, was awakened by a hasty knock on the door.

"Who?!"

Lin Jiangnian opened his mouth angrily.

I worked hard for half the night last night and didn't fall asleep until almost dawn.I didn't sleep for long before I was woken up again.

"Your Highness, something serious happened!"

Lin Qingqing's anxious voice came from outside the door.

"event?"

After hearing the big news, Lin Jiangnian immediately woke up and sat up.

"Come in."

The door of the room was pushed open, and Lin Qingqing stepped in hurriedly.

She was still wearing the armor that she hadn't had time to remove last night, and she looked a little more tired, obviously she hadn't slept all night.

At this moment, she was full of anxiety, and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, I just got the news..."

"Everyone in the Wang family who was imprisoned in the dungeon, something happened!"

"Everyone is dead..."

Lin Jiangnian, who was still a little moody at first, suddenly raised his head when he heard the news: "What did you say?!"

"Who's dead?!"

"Wang Shiquan, Wang Shiquan's wife Situ Xuan, and the Wang family members who were imprisoned in the dungeon last night..."

Lin Qingqing's voice was low: "Just this morning, the city defense army discovered that someone had broken into the dungeon. The city defense army in the dungeon suffered an accident, and all the members of the Wang family who were imprisoned in the dungeon last night were also killed..."

"The murderer's martial arts skills are extremely high, leaving no traces. Wang Shiquan was pierced through the heart by someone's palm, and the military adviser beside him did not escape, and the family members of the Wang family were all brutally murdered, leaving no one alive... ..."

"The methods are cruel and no one will be spared!"

"..."

Lin Jiangnian's face was serious, and he said in a deep voice, "Who did it?"

"Subordinates don't know!"

Lin Qingqing shook her head, her expression equally solemn.

How long have the talents of the Wang family been arrested?

In less than a few hours, he was killed by someone... Isn't this a bit too coincidental? !

"Where's Yuan Zhongnan?"

"Subordinates are not clear."

"go!"

Lin Jiangnian was no longer sleepy at this time, got up and grabbed the clothes on the side, put it on his body, and walked towards the door: "Take me to the dungeon."

The governor's mansion fell and the Wang family was imprisoned. This was part of Lin Jiangnian's plan.

But someone from the Wang family was killed in the dungeon, which was something he didn't expect.

Unprepared!

Lin Qingqing quickly followed behind Lin Jiangnian, and said in a low voice, "Your Highness, could it be Yuan Zhongnan who did it?"

The city defense army had only occupied the prefect's mansion for a few hours, and the Wang family was immediately silenced, which made people suspicious.

And the only person who can do this quietly seems to be Yuan Zhongnan?
"He doesn't seem like such a stupid person!"

Lin Jiangnian shook his head.

As the governor of Yanzhou, Yuan Zhongnan would not be so anxious even if he wanted to attack the Wang family.

If he acted so quickly, wouldn't it prove that Yuan Zhongnan was the murderer?

"However, this possibility cannot be ruled out!"

Lin Jiangnian frowned.

Yuan Zhongnan really didn't seem like someone who would do such a stupid thing, but if it wasn't him, who would it be?
