Empire's Summoning Generals System

Chapter 258 Zheng Kui's Casting Effect (Two in One)

"Master, go! I'll stop him!"

Gu Wu lowered his body, slowly pulled out his saber from his waist, and stared at Peng Yue cautiously.

Peng Yue wiped the blood off his face, raised his sword and went straight to Gu Pu, his face full of flesh, making people daunting.

"Stop hurting my lord!"

Gu Wu and Peng Yue fought hard, and suddenly felt their arms go numb, and shouted back: "You guys, take the master away!"

Those six men in black set up Gu Pu and wanted to leave through the back door, when a black shadow suddenly came!
"boom!"

There was a huge impact sound, and a man in black's chest collapsed, blood spurted from his mouth, and he died instantly!
"what!"

The rest of the men in black were shocked!
Look up!

A strong man appeared in front of them with a giant hammer on his shoulders. It was Xu Hu!
Xu Hu put the iron hammer on the ground, and the huge strength directly smashed the bricks and stones on the ground into pieces!
Everyone looked at the bricks and stones on the ground that had turned into powder, and their hearts trembled.

"Master Gu, where is this going?"

Xu Hu said something to Gu Pu, then grinned, and said to the five men in black: "You should put down your weapons and surrender, and you can spare your life! Otherwise, let you taste the power of a certain sledgehammer!" !"

With trembling fingers, Gu Pu pointed at Xu Hu and cursed: "I am the Patriarch of the Gu family. If you enter the old man's mansion for no reason, aren't you afraid that other families in Liaocheng will revolt?"

"Old man Gu, you know what you want to do. Besides, you should think about it carefully. How could we know about you?"

Xu Hu clicked his mouth, feeling that he had talked too much today, so he closed his mouth and swung his iron hammer to take down Gu Pu.

"Quick! Protect the master!"

The five men in black looked at Xu Hu who was killing him, and they were about to burst into tears. They swung their knives and slashed at Xu Hu. Xu Hu's skills were activated, and his force value increased.

The black-clothed men were Xu Hu's opponents, and they were beaten to death by Xu Hu within a few rounds. He grabbed Gu Pu's collar and held him in his hand. superior.

Gu Pu's face was ferocious, and he squeezed Xu Hu's big hand with both hands. Gu Pu was also a ruthless character who dared to fight when he was young, but he was old and pampered for many years, and he was no longer as brave as before.

Gu Pu showed no signs of fear, his eyes were filled with endless hatred, and he asked Xu Hu, "Tell me if it's Zheng Kui, or him!"

Xu Hu glanced at Gu Pu and ignored him.

But Gu Pu already knew the answer, he gritted his teeth and said, "What a Zheng Kui, what a scheming Zheng Kui! Hate! I hate it so much!"

At this time, Peng Yue had also finished the battle, and killed Gu Wu, the loyal guard in front of him!

Looking at Gu Pu in Xu Hu's hand, he nodded and said, "Let's go!"

When the two returned to an open space in Gu's mansion, all the people in Gu's mansion had been escorted here. If they dared to resist, they were all beheaded by Dong Yu's soldiers on the spot!

Seeing that Gu Pu was arrested, Gu Pu's family immediately cried and shouted, but Gu Pu's face was ashen, he sat on the ground, closed his eyes, and ignored his wives, concubines and children who were shouting at him.

A soldier stepped forward and reported: "Report to Captain Xu and Captain Peng, several patriarchs of other families were caught in the side hall!"

"My lord! General! We have been wronged!"

Several patriarchs who were pressed down by Dong Yu's soldiers saw Xu and Peng standing aside, struggling, and begged for mercy loudly: "General, we are willing to be with Gu Pu at all, and Gu Pu locked us up. , General Mingjian!"

Peng Yue waved his hand and said disgustedly: "Okay, it's up to you to judge whether you have wronged or not, and suppress them!"

The last sentence was addressed to the Dongyu soldiers behind him.

"Your order!" Several Dongyu soldiers responded.

"General! General! Look at General Anbei and say something nice! We are really wronged!" One person refused to give up, and even though he was suppressed by Dong Yu's soldiers, he turned his head and shouted at Peng and Xu. road.

Peng Yue snorted coldly: "A group of rats! I wish I could slaughter them all!"

"Okay, Captain Peng, it's getting late, let's finish counting early! My lord is still waiting for us!" Xu Hu said.

"Okay!" Peng Yue responded.

It was night, Zheng Kui came to the government office with all the frightened people, a tiger guard led them to the side hall, Liu De had been waiting for a long time!

Seeing Liu De, who was sitting high on the throne, everyone immediately kowtowed in fear and respect: "Greetings, General Anbei!"

"Everyone, get up!" Liu De raised his hand to signal, "All elders, please take your seats!"

Tables are placed around the side hall, and some dishes and drinks are placed on them!

When the patriarchs were seated, Liu De raised his glass with a smile, "You are all well-known elders in Liao City and even in Yanzhou. I am very happy to have a drink with you elders. I respect you all!"

Drank the wine in the glass.

Seeing that Liu De had already drunk, everyone dared not follow suit, and raised their glasses one after another: "We respect the general!"

Holding the chopsticks, Liu De said to the Patriarchs with a smile, "Everyone, don't stand still, eat! These are specially prepared for you!"

Although the dishes on the table were quite delicious, most of the owners had no appetite to eat at all, and only Zheng Kui looked as usual, savoring the delicious food in front of him very calmly.

Liu De has seen everyone's performance in his eyes, and he already understands it in his heart.

Then he put down the wine cup and coughed twice.

Everyone looked up, knowing that the main show was coming, they quickly sat upright and waited for Liu De to speak.

Liu De looked around and said, "Gu Pu wanted to send someone to assassinate this general, but he has already been taken down now!"

Several Patriarchs who had already heard about it darkened their expressions, they didn't expect Liu De to be so ruthless!Is he really not afraid of attacking all the family groups in Liaocheng like this?

Liu De has ransacked three or four big and small families one after another, which has caused dissatisfaction among everyone in the audience. Now everyone is in danger and wants to make Liu De look good!
Of course Liu De knew what some of them were thinking, but he didn't care. How could an elephant care about the curses of ants?

When these families don't want to support Chu Ying's grain and grass, they should know that such consequences will happen!

Of course, Liu De will not force too much, after the big stick is cast, the next step is the carrot!
"Duke Zheng, I heard that you have three sons, all of whom are well-known men in Liaocheng!" Liu De asked Zheng Kui. Although he had met Zheng Kui's eldest son, Liu De would not reveal it.

Zheng Kui went out, cupped his hands and said, "General Qi, I do have three sons, the eldest son Zheng Bogui, the second son Zheng Zhongji, and the youngest son Zheng Shuqi!"

"it is good!"

Liu De praised: "This general wants Zheng Bogui to serve as Liao Cheng Cheng, I wonder if Mr. Zheng would like it?"

"Thank you, General, on my son's behalf!" Zheng Kui had no reason to be unwilling, and quickly kowtowed.

Before this, Zheng Bogui was only responsible for recording affairs and history, but he was promoted to a seventh-rank official position. Don't underestimate that it was just a mere promotion. The Liao City Order is in charge of all matters in Liao City!

Prior to this, Feng Zhijing, Yang Zichuan's confidant and aide, had always served as Liao Cheng Cheng. Of course, Liao Cheng Cheng was also held by Yang Zichuan.

"Zheng Zhongji and Zheng Shuqi should also serve as captains!" Liu De continued.

Zheng Kui kowtowed again to thank Liu De.

The banquet lasted until late at night, and when the banquet was over, all the Patriarchs left the government office amidst a lot of worries!
But Zheng Kui was kept by Liu De!
Liu De and Zheng Kui came to a small side hall of the government office alone, Liu De smiled and said to Zheng Kui: "I don't know why Zheng Gong wants to help me like this!"

Liu De was referring to the fact that Zheng Kui sent his eldest son to report to Liu De. With Dian Wei and Xu Hu in Liu De, of course he would not be afraid of any assassins, but since Zheng Kui showed his favor to him, Liu De would definitely accept it. Zheng Bogui served as Cheng Cheng of Liaocheng, and two other sons served as captains.

But Liu De was still curious, so he asked.

Zheng Kui bowed his hands to Liu De and said, "Don't dare to lie to the general. I have lived for 70 years. Although I don't have any great skills, my eyes are still accurate. Yang Zichuan's defeat has already been achieved, and sooner or later he will be defeated by the general! The old man feels that his life is not long, and the three sons are mediocre people. After the old man leaves, the three brothers will not be able to keep the family business! And the reputation of the general's benevolence and righteousness is spread all over the world, so the old man is willing to help the general and keep Zheng The foundation of the family!"

Liu De nodded, this Zheng Kui really didn't lie to himself, if he hadn't come out today, although he can't touch him now, but the Zheng family will not stay for long in the future, and he will clean up the Zheng family sooner or later, who knows The Zheng family is the largest family in Liao City besides the Yang family!
Zheng Bogui's attributes have also been checked by himself, and he is indeed a middle-aged man. He may not be able to do what he wants to be the Liaocheng Prime Minister. After Zheng Kui's death, the Zheng family will definitely fall.

But these are not enough!

Zheng Kui seemed to have guessed Liu De's thoughts, and assured Liu De: "General, please rest assured that the other families in Liao City, I will personally persuade them, so that they will be willing to be driven by the general, and will not be held back secretly. The general manages Liao City!"

Zheng Kui continued: "Now that the war is imminent, I am willing to contribute all the money and food in the mansion to help the general recruit soldiers, buy horses and build equipment! Fund the general to unify Yanzhou!"

Liu De frowned, clapped his hands and said, "Okay! Zheng Gong really understands righteousness, and this general is right! When Yang Zichuan is calmed down, this general will reward you!"

"Thank you, General!" Zheng Kui kowtowed.

When Zheng Kui returned to the mansion, he did not expect that the head of the Wang family was waiting for him in the mansion.

Seeing Zheng Kui coming back, the Patriarch of the Wang family questioned, "Duke Zheng! Did you betray Gu Pu to Liu De?"

Zheng Kui chuckled, "Don't be impatient, Patriarch Wang, and let the old man tell you slowly!"

The Patriarch of the Wang Family looked angry. It stands to reason that if there is any conflict between them, it is also an internal conflict, and Liu De is an outsider. What is Zheng Kui's behavior if it is not betrayal?
Zheng Kui asked: "Dare to ask Patriarch Wang, do you think Gu Pu can succeed?"

"Whether he succeeds or not, it cannot cover up the fact that you betrayed him!" The Patriarch of the Wang family slapped the table vigorously.

Zheng Kui took the tea handed over by the servants, ignored the fury of the head of the Wang family, and said slowly: "Gu Pu must not be able to succeed, is it just because of the few dead men he raised? Look at the general Anbei's men. Several generals, which one is not a tiger and wolf? Look at the soldiers under his command, they are ten times better than the Liaocheng army! Chu Ying is the number one general under Yang Zichuan's command. We have all seen his abilities, but now? He was beaten in a hurry escape!"

Zheng Kui sighed and said, "If Gu Puzhen sent someone to assassinate him and failed, we will be greeted with Liu De's wrath; if it succeeds, then we will have to bear the wrath of his generals! At that time, we will not only lose these three or four families The problem is over, we are all going to die!"

"He is Liu Degan! He is not afraid that the entire Liaocheng will be paralyzed? How can he control the entire Liaocheng without us? Besides! Yang Zhoumu is still leading an army of [-]. Don't worry about Liu De taking down Liaocheng. Come on, Liu De must be a fan!" The head of the Wang family still didn't believe it.

Zheng Kui sneered: "You still have such a ridiculous idea. How many days have passed now, where is Yang Zichuan's army? I'm afraid I won't be able to spare myself to support Liaocheng at all! Don't forget that there is an East Yu army just now. Go soon!"

"Besides, Liu De has a strong temper. When he is furious, you still expect him to think about the future? We dare to assassinate him. Can he let us go, and let us take charge of Liaocheng for him? He needs The premise for us to help him take charge of Liao City is that no one dares to oppose him!"

Zheng Kui's repeated questioning left the Patriarch of the Wang family speechless, yes!
Even dare to assassinate Liu De, how could Liu De use their families?Gu Pu dragged all of them into the water, and none of them could escape!
"Furthermore!" Zheng Kui said in a slow tone, "Even if Liu De is defeated and Yang Zichuan regains Liao City, we will still be us!"

The head of the Wang family suddenly realized that what Zheng Kui said reached the heart of the head of the Wang family. If you fight against Liu De, you may be beheaded. If you don't do it right, your life will definitely be saved. When Yang Zichuan retakes Liaocheng, it will still be the same Need to reuse them, their status will not change at all!

Since this is the case, what can we do with Liu Dexu and the snake?
The Patriarch of the Wang family still has doubts: "Then our land and shops."

Of course Zheng Kui knew what he meant, and said affirmatively: "Don't worry, General Anbei will not touch our family property, and the property left by the Gu family and the Bao family is allowed to be divided according to General Anbei's wishes! "

"Really?"

Patriarch Wang's eyes lit up instantly!Sure enough, nothing is as good as money. Zheng Kui's repeated persuasion is not as effective as this sentence, which is really ironic.

"Can this be fake?" Zheng Kui shook his head secretly as he looked at the greedy eyes of the Patriarch of the Wang family.

The Patriarch of the Wang family rubbed his hands together: "Then that's great, Mr. Liu De really understands righteousness!" He has long been envious of the several properties of the Gu family, and they are really a gold-selling cave in Liaocheng!
"Patriarch Wang should know what to do this time!" Zheng Kui asked.

The Patriarch of the Wang family patted his chest and said: "Duke Zheng, don't worry! As long as General Anbei keeps his word, how can this old man know what is good or bad, and take his own life as a joke!"

"That would be the best! Tomorrow, Patriarch Wang and the old man will be invited to persuade the other patriarchs!"

"no problem!"
