Zhou Qiong didn't want to hide it from her, but he also knew that he couldn't.
When I was about to speak, I saw other members of the Tang family running into the yard in a hurry.
The two stopped talking.
"Ling'er, are you okay?"
Mrs. Wu and Mrs. Tang arrived together, followed by Mr. and Mrs. Tang Yuanzhi, followed by Tang Zifu and Shen Qingdai.
"It's so good, how come there's a thief?" Ms. Cao couldn't help shouting.
When he saw the oil stains on the ground that had not been wiped clean, he immediately said in horror: "Oh, this is still oil? Are these thieves planning to burn the house down?"
She looked at the mess on the ground with lingering fear, wanting to come and see Yun Ling, but when she saw Zhou Qiong standing at the edge, she hesitated and did not dare to step forward.
Although the person in front of her was her niece-in-law, she was frightened by someone with a high position.
Wu stretched out her hand and pulled Yunling over, "Are you okay? Are you injured anywhere?"
Yunling hurriedly shook her head and reassured everyone: "It's okay, it's just a few thieves. The Marquis has arrested them. Everyone should go back and rest."
Tang Yuanzhi rolled up his sleeves, "Where are you? How dare you come to the Tang family to act wild and see if I don't teach you a lesson."
Zhou Qiong coughed lightly and said, "It's late at night, so you should go back and rest."
Mrs. Cao couldn't think of anything to say and suddenly asked: "Master Hou, when did you come? Why did you come to Ling'er's yard in the middle of the night?"
But seeing Zhou Qiong's expression instantly becoming a little embarrassed, she seemed to realize something again, took two steps back, and said hurriedly: "Hey, I was just talking casually."
Old Mr. Tang stepped forward at the right time, "Thank you, Lord Marquis, for your help. I wonder if Lord Marquis can send some guards to stay in the Tang family? It seems that the thieves knew that Ling'er was engaged to Lord Marquis, and they were about to send a betrothal gift. Look, There’s a dowry.”
Zhou Qiong looked at Mr. Tang, and when he saw the anger in his eyes, he knew that the old man had probably guessed it, and immediately said: "I will arrange for someone to come in a moment. Grandpa, don't worry, I will make these thieves pay the price."
After saying that, Zhou Qiong left several of his subordinates in the Tang family, while he returned to the Zhenxi Hou Mansion to make arrangements.
The yard was quickly tidied up.
"Grandpa, grandma, and everyone else, please go back and rest. It's okay."
"Yes." Mr. Tang looked around and saw the few guards left by Zhou Qiong also guarding the left and right rooms, and said, "Be careful."
Then he told Lao Qi: "If you work harder tonight, you can help me keep an eye on it in the west wing. I will be on duty in the palace early tomorrow morning. You can have a good rest and don't have to follow me."
"Yes."
Lao Qi nodded, even if the old man didn't say anything, he didn't plan to leave.
The people he fought with just now all had similar martial arts skills...
Especially the Kungfu used by the leader was almost exactly the same as that of the group that went up the mountain...
He had let go of the past that he didn't want to think about deeply, and it came back to his mind again.
The lights in the main room went out and everything returned to calm, but Lao Qi's eyes overflowed with bloodthirsty light in the dark night.
He needed to find Zhou Qiong to confirm who sent the sneak attack tonight.
......
Early the next morning, the servants guarding the ancestral graves of the Liu family came to report that the coffins of the newly buried old lady and Liu Zhengyan had been dug out and burned into charcoal on the spot.
In the original tomb, there were several unknown corpses lying in random directions. They died in miserable conditions, and the flesh on their bodies seemed to have been gnawed by vicious dogs.
The guard's servants knelt down in front of Liu Boyi tremblingly, stumbling and saying: "We were all on guard without sleeping last night, but for some reason, we all suddenly felt dizzy, and then fell unconscious... Master , someone must have done this on purpose, please forgive me, you guys, you guys must do your errands well in the future."
The servant in charge of guarding looked desperate. He really wished that someone had wiped his neck without knowing it last night, so that he would not have to face the wrath of Marquis Wu.
Liu Boyi sat at the top, motionless and silent.
When Liu Zhonghe hurriedly ran in, he shouted: "Brother, the bodies outside are them, the people I sent out last night! Brother, this must be Zhou Qiong's doing!"
Liu Boyi ignored him and only said to the guards, "Drag these people who are not well guarded and burn them."
"Ah, Lord Marquis, please spare your life, please spare your life! Wuwu——"
The guards came forward and dragged the person out.
Liu Boyi then told the trembling butler standing in the corner: "Restore the cemetery to normal, hide this matter, and do not let others know."
"Yes. Don't worry, Mr. Marquis, I will definitely do this job well." The steward ran out in a hurry as if he had been pardoned.
The Marquis must be furious about this matter, but he is just at the critical point of exploding.
If he continues to stay here, he is afraid that he will also be angered.
Liu Zhonghe's face was full of anger, surprise, and confusion, all of which were mixed together, making his whole face distorted.
"Brother! Just forget it? This must be Zhou Qiong's doing. He is provoking! We should sue him in front of the emperor."
Liu Boyi didn't even bother to glance at him, and only asked coldly: "Do you want Dali Temple to investigate the origins of these people?"
"Or do you want Wuhou Mansion to become the laughing stock of the entire Ruidu?"
"We can't even preserve my mother's remains. Aren't you afraid that the clan elders will come up to investigate?"
this.....
Liu Zhonghe froze on the spot instantly.
"But just let Zhou Qiong bully us? If we endure it this time, he might think that we are afraid."
"Zhong He, the people you sent out last night failed to succeed, which means they were defeated from the beginning. Failure means retreat."
"But......"
Liu Zhonghe always felt that his eldest brother seemed to have changed. In addition to the fact that the city had become deeper, he seemed to have become a little more aggressive. What was he afraid of?
He shook his head, temporarily getting rid of the doubts in his mind, and asked: "Should I still send people to Ruidu? If you ask me, just call in a large number of people and find another opportunity to kill this scourge. I don't believe it, and I can't kill him yet. .”
Liu Boyi thought for a moment and said, "Move the most elite team of the Zhongwu Army outside Ruidu City to obey my orders."
"Brother, what do you want?" Liu Zhonghe asked, feeling a little excited for no reason.
"How many troops are needed? But we don't have His Majesty's order. If we remove too many people at once, they will be easily discovered, I'm afraid it won't work..."
"Eight thousand elites are enough."
"Six thousand of them are waiting for news near Yanhui Station, and another two thousand are in disguise near Ruidu."
After Liu Zhonghe left, Liu Boyi stood up.
Suddenly, he used his hands and feet to overturn all the tables and chairs in the hall to the ground, and the fine porcelain as thin as cicada wings instantly shattered on the floor.
Not satisfied, Liu Boyi picked up the fallen chair and started smashing it. When the whole hall was in chaos, he gasped and slowly stood up straight.
But how could the overwhelming anger in his heart dissipate so easily?
He took a deep breath, and finally couldn't help but rushed to the stable, picked a fast horse, and put on a cloak to hide his eyes.
He got on his horse and galloped towards the west of the city.
The guards hurriedly dressed up and rode to follow.
