Chapter 174
"It's bad, Prime Minister! The 300 residence soldiers have been wiped out, leaving no corpses!"
The subordinate hurriedly ran in to report the situation.
"Impossible! Even 300 pigs couldn't be killed that quickly!"
Qin Gui and Zhao Gou were both shocked. The 300 residence soldiers had just gone out and were wiped out?
"Reporting to the Prime Minister, I dare not hide it. The enemy has a powerful sonic martial art, using the zither as a weapon. With the movement of the zither strings, not only was the rain of arrows destroyed, but the soldiers were torn apart the moment they were hit by the sonic attack. Even the stone lions at the entrance were shattered. If I hadn't been far away, I wouldn't have had the chance to report to you."
The subordinate dared not hide it and immediately described it in detail.
"Let's go out and see. I want to see who this sacred person is."
Zhao Gou said, then stood up and walked out.
"Your Majesty, absolutely not! A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall. A child of nobility does not sit under a hall. Besides, you are the Emperor; you cannot go out and face the thieves directly!"
"It's fine. There are people protecting me in secret. Under his protection, no one can hurt me!"
Zhao Gou smiled confidently. He wasn't afraid of the city gate catching fire and implicating the fish in the moat.
At this time, all the major powers outside had also sent people, and even the people from the Divine Marquis Mansion had arrived.
Female Zhuge Zhengwo and Iron Hand were stunned to see Lin Fan and Wujing. Was it them who stormed the Prime Minister's residence?
"Wujing, what are you doing? Tell Lin Fan to stop!"
Female Zhuge Zhengwo hurriedly leaped to Wujing's side and said anxiously to her.
"I am naturally here to avenge the innocent souls of my Sheng family who died tragically!"
Wujing looked at Female Zhuge Zhengwo with a complex expression, then said indifferently.
"Revenge! Do you know the truth?"
Female Zhuge Zhengwo looked at Wujing in shock, not expecting that she would know the truth after being out for only a few days.
"Wujing, since you know the truth, then do it. I am one of the twelve culprits who wiped out your family back then!"
Iron Hand walked over, then walked in front of Wujing and closed his eyes, willing to die.
"I am here today to kill the culprit. Qin Gui must die."
Wujing wanted to do it, but when she thought about how Iron Hand had taken care of her like a younger sister for so many years, she couldn't bring herself to do it.
"Who are you people? Storming the Prime Minister's residence in broad daylight and killing 300 soldiers! Divine Marquis Female Zhuge, since your Divine Marquis Mansion won't arrest people, then our Six Doors will take the lead!"
Before the voice had faded, the Capture God brought Ji Ji Yaohua and a group of constables over.
Lin Fan just glanced at the Capture God indifferently and then couldn't be bothered to care about him. He was waiting for Qin Gui to come out and wasn't in the mood to bother with a short-lived ghost like the Capture God.
Although it was impossible for anyone in the Southern Song to stop him from killing Qin Gui, Qin Gui didn't know that. Now that all the major powers were present, Qin Gui should be coming out, right?
Lin Fan was preparing for a public execution, to execute Qin Gui in front of everyone.
"Daring to ignore our Six Doors! Ji Yaohua, take her down!"
The Capture God naturally saw Lin Fan's contemptuous look, which made him furious, so he ordered Ji Ji Yaohua to take down Lin Fan and Wujing's group.
"My lord, why don't we wait and see the situation?"
Ji Ji Yaohua didn't dare to go up. What if Lin Fan crushed her to death? She knew how strong Lin Fan's martial arts were; everyone in Shangjing City tied together wouldn't be enough for him to fight alone.
"You! I'll do it myself!"
The Capture God looked at Ji Ji Yaohua angrily, then tapped his feet and flew toward Lin Fan. Catch the thief, catch the king first. As a master catcher, he naturally knew who the leader of this group was.
"Heart-Destroying Palm!"
A'Zi flew up and used the Nine Yin Manual to face the Capture God. Although A'Zi hadn't been promoted to a Grandmaster yet, relying on the Nine Yin Manual, the Northern Dark Divine Art, and the Hong Lingbo Micro-steps, she fought back and forth with the Capture God.
Just then, the tightly closed gate of the Prime Minister's residence opened. Zhao Gou walked in the lead, Qin Gui followed closely, and behind them were the martial arts experts and guest experts hired by Qin Gui.
"Ah, the Emperor is here too?"
"Greetings to the Emperor!"
Female Zhuge Zhengwo hurriedly bowed. The Capture God forced A'Zi back with one move and then bowed to Zhao Gou. When the onlookers heard that the Emperor was also here, they immediately knelt on the ground.
At this time, except for the bowing Female Zhuge Zhengwo, the only people still standing at the scene were Lin Fan and his group.
"Why don't you kneel?"
Zhao Gou asked coldly when he saw this.
"We are not from the Southern Song, but from the Northern Song. Why should we kneel? Besides, even the Emperor of the Northern Song doesn't deserve my kneeling, because no one in this world deserves my kneeling. Can you handle it? You muddled emperor!"
Lin Fan's tone was even colder. What was Zhao Gou? Did he deserve his kneeling?
"Daring! Let me take you down and ask for the Emperor's forgiveness!"
The Capture God, this lackey, immediately jumped out to take down Lin Fan, but unfortunately, he couldn't even take down A'Zi, and was blocked by her again halfway.
"Are you Qin Gui?"
Lin Fan didn't bother with them anymore, but asked the middle-aged man with a steady expression and a long beard behind Zhao Gou.
"I am. Why did you come to my Prime Minister's residence to start a massacre?"
Qin Gui nodded and asked with a heavy voice.
"For the tragedy of the Sheng Sheng Dingtian family being wiped out back then, I, Sheng Sheng Yayu, represent my family to come for revenge. Today, I will have you buried with them."
Wujing looked at Qin Gui with hateful eyes and said word by word.
"Sheng Sheng Dingtian?!"
Zhao Gou was shocked. He didn't expect Wujing to be Sheng Sheng Dingtian's daughter.
Thinking of Sheng Sheng Dingtian, his thoughts were complex, but as an Emperor, he didn't think he had done anything wrong. The monarch orders the subject to die, and the subject must die. Sheng Sheng Dingtian died, which calmed Qin Gui's anger and prevented the tearing up of the alliance between the Jin and Song states. His death was valuable.
"You also know that my father died unjustly, right? If it weren't for you asking the eight upright officials to investigate Qin Gui, he wouldn't have been framed by Qin Gui. Seven of the eight upright officials responsible for investigating Qin Gui were wiped out, leaving only my Sheng family. You could see at a glance that it was an undisguised framing act, yet even so, you sent people to wipe out my entire Sheng family. It really is 'the rabbit dies, the dog is cooked; the birds are gone, the bow is hidden.' Working for your royal family is really ironic!"
Wujing also noticed Zhao Gou's changing expression on the side and couldn't help but mock him.
If killing Zhao Gou wouldn't cause the entire Southern Song to fall into chaos and the people to suffer, Wujing wouldn't have let him go.
"Nonsense! I have never done such a thing!"
There were not only people from the Prime Minister's residence, Wujing's group, but also the Divine Marquis Mansion, the Six Doors, and even a large crowd of onlookers.
As an Emperor, how could Zhao Gou admit that he had done such a thing of killing the donkey after the millstone was used?
Although everyone present knew it, they all tacitly agreed not to say it.
But Wujing passed these words to the common people, which was undoubtedly a huge blow to Zhao Gou's reputation, so Zhao Gou looked at Wujing viciously.
After all, there were some things he could do as an Emperor, but you couldn't even say them.
