Mingshi

Chapter 686
"boom!"

Wan Daquan, who had been standing aside all this time, raised his leg and kicked the door open.

"Qiang..."

There were four people standing in the courtyard, all of them pulled out their waist knives in unison, and glared at Luo Xin and the others gloomyly. He closed the courtyard door with his backhand, and stood at the door from left to right, staring fiercely at the four people across from him.Luo Xin's eyes swept over the faces of the four people one by one, frowned slightly, and said in a low voice to the door behind the four people:
"Shen Qianhu, do you need me to come in and ask you to come out?"

"Hehe..." There were two dry laughs in the room, a thin middle-aged man came out, cupped his hands at Luo Xin and said:
"For a humble position, see Lord Luo."

There was a dry smile on his face, but he was shocked in his heart, how long has Luo Xin been in the southeast?This touched the secret stronghold of their Jinyiwei.

Luo Xin smiled lightly and said, "Luo Qianhu, how is the conversation in the house?"

"Lord please!"

Luo Xin walked towards the house, Shen Qianhu followed behind, the two walked into the house, in the yard, Wan Daquan, Lu Daqing and the four Jinyiwei looked at each other.The eyes of the four Jin Yiwei were gloomy, and the eyes of Wan Daquan and Lu Daqing did not give way.

inside the house.

Shen Qianhu personally brewed a cup of tea for Luo Xin, then smiled sinisterly and said: "Luo Hou, I didn't understand the reason for coming, I offended you."

Luo Xin smiled lightly and said, "I'm a bad customer, and Shen Qianhu's reaction is normal."

"Haha..." Shen Qianhu laughed and said, "If Luo Hou can come, Jin Yiwei will be full of glory."

Luo Xin pondered for a moment and said: "Jin Yiwei is indeed Pengpi."

Shen Qianhu's expression just changed. He said that the succulent is radiant, which is because of his own humility.And when Luo Xin said that, it was ridicule.Jin Yiwei had never been so humiliated before, and his eyebrows were raised immediately.Luo Xin waved his hand and said:

"I'm not talking about the present, but the future, the near future."

Shen Qianhu's expression just moved, thoughtful.Luo Xin said indifferently: "Shen Qianhu, if you can become a thousand households, you can be regarded as a person of status in Jinyiwei. You should know why Jinyiwei is so prosperous now."

Shen Qianhu nodded, with a look of pride on his face and said: "Of course it's because of our chief governor."

"That's right!" Luo Xin also nodded and said, "Why did the governor do such a thing?"

Shen Qianhu grinned and said, "Of course it's because our chief governor is His Majesty's baby brother."

Shen Qianhu nodded again and said, "May I ask how long the governor will live?"

Shen Qianhu was stunned, and Luo Xin asked again: "Excuse me, how many Jinyiwei chief governors in this dynasty are His Majesty's milk brothers?"

Cold sweat dripped from Shen Qianhu's forehead: "One...one!"

"I have a letter here!" Luo Xin took out a letter and put it on the table, "Use your special channel of Jin Yiwei to secretly hand it over to Lu Bing, and at the same time, you can also keep the conversation we just had intact. Pass it to Lu Bing. Tell him that I will get his reply within half a month, and if I don’t receive a reply within half a month, he won’t have to give me another reply. The time starts from now.”

After the words fell, Luo Xin stood up.Walking past Shen Qianhu, patted him on the shoulder and said:
"Shen Qianhu, I hope that next time we meet again, I can call you Brother Shen."

"Luohou..."

The corner of Shen Qianhu's mouth twitched, and Luo Xin's hand pressed firmly on his shoulder, making him unable to move.

"It's free."

Luo Xin let go of his hand and strode towards the door.Shouted towards Wan Daquan and Lu Daqing:
"go!"

Luo Xin took Lu Daqing and Wan Daquan away, but the four Jinyiwei did not enter the room immediately, but called out:
"grown ups!"

"You guys stay on guard outside first." Shen Qianhu's voice sounded from inside, and the four Jinyi guards breathed a sigh of relief, looked at each other, and then stood outside the door.

inside the house.

Shen Qianhu sat on a chair, put one hand on his shoulder, and said in a low voice, "What a lot of strength!"

Thinking of Luo Xin's tone and demeanor when he spoke to him just now, admiration appeared in his eyes:
"It's so majestic and domineering. It's worthy of being the military god of the Ming Dynasty."

Then his face became ferocious again: "Luo Hou! Others are afraid of you, Luo Xin, but our Jinyiwei is not. How dare you humiliate me, humiliate Jinyiwei..."

His eyes fell on the letter on the table: "I will go to the capital in person to meet the governor. I must persuade the governor to deal with you, so that you can see the shaggy Jinyiwei."

He grabbed the letter on the table and put it in his arms, strode out and said: "I'm going to the capital to meet the governor, you guys keep an eye on Luo Xin here."

"Yes!"

In the city of Hangzhou.

Luo Xin led Wan Daquan and Lu Daqing to wander among the crowds. As he walked and watched, the look in his eyes gradually became serious. There are many refugees in the city today, most of them have hungry faces, but he also looks at When it comes to Kong Wu's powerful people, those people must be Japanese pirates, the subordinates of Xu Hai, Ye Ma and Xin Wulang.It wasn't until he saw many depressions driving a carriage with cauldrons and food on it that the solemnity in his eyes relaxed a little.

A big house in the city of Hangzhou, this is the garden of the Cui family, and the heads of the five great families gathered in the lobby at this time.The complexions of the five masters were all very ugly, and they were still pale.They were frightened by Luo Xin's killing.

A trace of cruelty appeared in Lu Ding's eyes, and he said, "We can't just admit defeat, otherwise our remaining five great families will also disappear in the southeast."

"My lord, what shall we do then?"

Lu Ding's eyes flickered sharply: "Luo Xin wants to kill the Lu family, so he will kill it. That is not weaker than our family. Does that mean that one day Luo Xin wants to move one of us, or if he wants to kill one of us, he will give it to him." Killed? Then what have we become? Lambs to be slaughtered? Are you willing to live like this?"

The faces of the four patriarchs showed murderous looks: "My lord, we will do what you say."

"Nowadays, food prices are soaring, mechanics are unstable, and refugees are pouring into Hangzhou. There must be countless Japanese pirates hidden among those refugees. Today's Hangzhou city is like a very dry powder keg. We only need to push a little behind the scenes, and it will detonate. This gunpowder keg will cause the whole of Hangzhou to fall into madness. At that time, we will instigate an attack on the magistrate’s yamen and Shibosi’s yamen, and kill Song Danian and Luo Xin directly. Even if we can’t kill them, there will be such a big disturbance in Hangzhou City, Luo Xinhe is mortal."

"Okay, let's do it like this!" The four patriarchs nodded in unison: "Let's go back now, and arrange our own subordinates immediately. Tonight is when Luo Xin's child will die."

After the five people studied it in detail, the Patriarch of the Cui family personally sent the four people outside the gate.As soon as they walked out of the gate of Cui Mansion, the five people frowned slightly. They heard a noise not far away from across the street.The head of the Cui family called out:

"Ma Wu."

A butler walked up to the head of the Cui family in two steps, bowed and said, "Master."

"What's the noise?"

"The villain has already sent someone to ask, and he will be back soon...he's back!" The housekeeper waved to a young man:

"Tiger, come here."

The young man came to the front in a hurry, saluted: "See you, master."

The head of the Cui family said solemnly: "What happened?"

Huzi said: "The government opened a porridge shed, and those refugees have gone outside the city to drink porridge."

"Outside the city?" The head of the Cui family frowned slightly.

"Yeah!" Huzi said with a smile on his face: "The little one also went outside the city to see it. The government is really interesting. They lined up hundreds of cauldrons along the official road. The gruel in the pot closer to the city gate was thinner, and the pot next to the gate had no rice grains in it, and the porridge in the pot farther away from the gate was thicker, so those refugees turned to those far away. The pots rush to go, line up there, and no one goes to the few pots at the gate of the city."

"Roxin, this is..."

The heads of the five great families looked at each other, not knowing what Luo Xin was up to.Suddenly, Lu Ding's heart skipped a beat, and he blurted out:

"Fishing in the dry lake!"

"Fishing in a dry marsh?"

The remaining Patriarchs of the four great families looked blank.However, at this moment, the sound of shouts of killing, the clash of weapons, the sound of screams, and the sound of bowstrings suddenly came along with the wind...

The Patriarchs of the Four Great Aristocratic Families immediately understood the meaning of "fishing in the dry lake" in Lu Ding's mouth, and his face that had just recovered some rosiness turned pale again.The five people looked at each other with fear in their eyes.

How dare they go to the street at this time?Maybe they will be shot to death by Liu Ya, or killed by Luo Xin, and their deaths will be pushed to the Japanese pirates, let alone killed by the flustered Japanese pirates.Therefore, these people hurriedly returned to the lobby of Cui Mansion.You look at me one by one, and I look at you, completely losing my mind.

The shouting and killing outside continued until sunset, and the head of the family was urged to send someone out to investigate. After a full hour, the housekeeper came back with a pale face and a slight trembling body.

"Master, Luo Xin...has killed someone again..."

"How many people were killed? Who were they killed?" Lu Ding asked anxiously.

"More than 2000 people were killed, and they were said to be Japanese pirates. Now there are soldiers everywhere in Hangzhou City, and everyone they don't like is arrested."

The five people looked at each other again, knowing in their hearts that the biggest destructive force was cut off by Luo Xin.The Patriarch of the Wang family said with a hostile face:

"We still need machinists. If we miss today, we push the machinists to make trouble. I don't believe that Luo Xin dares to kill tens of thousands of machinists."

Everyone cheered up, the Patriarch of the Cui family waved the butler to leave, and then said in a low voice:

"That's right. Luo Xin has already killed two groups of people in a row. Although he has reasons for killing people, the number of people killed is too many. He dare not kill any more. Especially tens of thousands of mechanics, he has no reason to go Kill. If we miss the strict investigation today, we will push the mechanics to start making trouble tomorrow. At that time, because of the soaring food prices, Hangzhou is already unstable, and it is still a powder keg. We can still achieve the results we want."

Lu Ding nodded slowly and said, "Let's sum it up carefully."

The five people were discussing the steps in detail in the house, when they heard footsteps coming from outside the door.Then I heard Cui's butler's voice from outside the door:

"master!"

The people in the room stopped discussing, and the Patriarch of the Cui family said in a concentrated voice: "Come in."

With a "squeak" the door was pushed open, and the butler came in and saluted, "Master, Hangzhou is full of soldiers now. Qi Jiguang and Luo Qing led [-] soldiers all over the streets and alleys, even... the gates of our five great families There are also soldiers patrolling behind the front door, and our people will be questioned when they come in and out, and even those who leave the mansion will be followed by soldiers. There are also heavy soldiers patrolling around the workshop."

The faces of the five great aristocratic families turned pale again. People who came out of the mansion were followed by soldiers. How could they arrange people to push the mechanics to make trouble?I'm afraid that as soon as there is any movement, Luo Xin will arrest and kill him.There are also heavy patrols around the workshop, which shows that Luo Xin has realized the problem of mechanics.Luo Xin had just killed two groups of people, and now he sent heavy troops to patrol the workshop, how could those mechanics dare to make trouble?
This plan... failed before it was implemented!
The head of the Cui family waved his hands weakly and said, "Continue to investigate."

"Yes, sir!"

The butler withdrew, closed the door, and left in a hurry.The atmosphere in the house was very oppressive, and the air seemed to be stagnant, pressing towards them, making them feel suffocated.

After a while, all four of them looked at Lu Ding, and the meaning of those eyes was very obvious: what should we do?
The corner of Lu Ding's mouth twitched, and he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Don't panic. The biggest problem in Hangzhou is not the refugees or the mechanics, but the soaring food prices. The soaring food prices have made people's hearts unstable. We just need to continue Control the food price and let it soar all the way, and within a few days, there will be chaos in Hangzhou. At that time, how can Luo Xin care about us? If we take the opportunity to promote mechanics, we can still achieve the results we need."

"good!"

"wonderful!"

The four great aristocratic families clapped their hands and smiled, and Lu Ding also showed a look of control on his face and said:

"Let's study it in detail again, this time we must hit it with one hit."

The time was spent in the tense discussion of the five people, and finally Lu Ding said: "Okay, let's follow our plan. Luo Xin's child is dead."

Smiles appeared on the faces of the five people again.All of a sudden, the shock of Luo Xin's two murders dissipated, and his confidence exploded.

"This time, let Luo Xin know that we are the ones in the southeast."

"Master!" The butler's voice sounded from outside the door again.

The five people in the room were startled and their expressions changed.At this time, they were very afraid of hearing the voice of the butler, because every time the butler came, he brought bad news.The Patriarch of the Cui family took a deep breath and said in a concentrated voice:

"Come in."

The door was pushed open, and the butler walked in. When the five people saw the look on the butler's face, their hearts jumped, because the butler's face was not happy, which proved that the news would not be good.
