Chapter 579 Unexpected News



Butler Zhang finally realized something, his face changed wildly, and he said in shock: "You, your poison has been cured!"

The head of the Zhu family waved his hand and said: "Take it!"

Before Butler Zhang put down the flute, it was taken down by the Zhu family guards who rushed forward.

He looked at the head of the Zhu family, suppressed the fear in his heart, and said sternly: "Zhu, if you dare to betray us, the Xiao family will have your Zhu family exterminated!"

"Take care of yourself first..." The head of the Zhu family looked at him, with a cold look on his face, and said: "In order to thank Butler Zhang for taking care of Zhu over the years, Zhu has prepared a big gift for you... …”

After a while, Butler Zhang looked at a large pit in front of him, which was full of centipedes, spiders, venomous snakes and other poisonous insects. He said in horror: "What do you want to do, Mr. Zhu?"

The head of the Zhu family waved his hand, and the Zhu family guards pushed him directly into the pit, and then covered the pit with wooden boards.

"Let me out, let me out!"

"Go away, don't bite me, don't bite me!"

"Don't bite there, don't bite there!"

……

Listening to the screams coming from the pit, the head of the Zhu family showed an extremely happy expression on his face.

Without the three major families to fear, it only took one day to clean up the Xiao family.

In just one day, the Xiao family's business in Quzhou was blocked by many parties and was divided up by three major families.

As for everyone in the Xiao Mansion, they were all arrested and imprisoned because of various crimes reported by the three major families.

In this stronghold of the Xiao Mansion, there are actually a few people who know the art of Gu, but they only know a little bit about it, and they are incomparable to experts like Gongsun Ying. The Xiao family was cleaned up.

When Tang Ning sent Chen Zhou to inventory the Xiao family's property, Gongsun Ying had already grabbed a young man by the neck and asked quickly: "Where is the King of Guizhou?"

The young man looked confused and said, "Who is the King of Guizhou? I don't know..."

Gongsun Ying tormented the servants captured from the Xiao family for a long time, but did not find out any information about King Qian. She could not find out anything with her methods. It seemed that they really didn't know.

Chen Zhou left quickly and came back quickly. Tangning looked at him and asked in surprise: "The inventory was completed so quickly?"

Chen Zhou said: "Sir, the Xiao family does not have much property. The total amount found is only more than [-] taels..."

Tang Ning stood up from his chair. As the richest man in Quzhou, the Xiao family was not surprised to find 300 million taels. 3 taels was not even a fraction of what he had expected.

He looked at Chen Zhou and said, "Continue searching to see if there are any secret rooms or secret rooms in the Xiao Mansion..."

Chen Zhou led people to continue the search. Tang Ning looked at one person and asked, "In your Xiao Mansion, who usually calls the shots?"

The man looked frightened and said in a trembling voice: "Yes, it's Butler Zhang..."

"Where is Guan Zhang's family?"

"Going to Zhu Mansion."

……

In the Zhu Mansion, the three heads of the Zhu, Huang, and Dong families looked at Tang Ning, and at the same time raised their hands and said, "I have met Mr. Tang."

Only more than 3 taels of silver were found from the Xiao family. It can be said that their work was in vain this time, which was not in line with his consistent style of winning.

Tang Ning looked at the three of them and asked, "I heard that the Xiao family's business has been divided among the three of you?"

The head of the Huang family looked at him and immediately said: "The Xiao family intends to rebel and has committed a heinous crime. The Xiao family's property will naturally belong to the treasury. Don't worry, sir, we will convert all their property into silver and send it to the inn... "

Tangning nodded and said, "That's very good."

The head of the Huang family has obviously grown up in the past two days. He wants Zhu's family's industry and business to be useless. For Chen Huang, the industry and business are not as exciting as free money.

The head of the Zhu family looked at him, cupped his hands and said, "I wonder what important matters Mr. Tang is here for?"

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "I heard that the Xiao family has a butler here?"

The head of the Zhu family was startled when he heard this, then looked back and said, "Bring him up."

When the housekeeper of the Xiao Mansion was brought in by two housekeepers, even Tang Ning was shocked.

His whole body was black and purple, and his body was covered with bloody holes. There was a three-inch long centipede hanging from his hair, and he lay limply on the ground, motionless.

Tangning looked at the head of the Zhu family and asked, "Dead?"

"Don't worry, sir. Those poisonous insects have all their fangs removed and they won't die." The head of the Zhu family looked at a servant behind him and said, "Wake him up!"

The servant poured a ladle of cold water on Butler Zhang's face. After being shocked by the cold water, Butler Zhang finally woke up.

He trembled and immediately hissed: "Don't come over, don't bite me..."

The servants of the Zhu family poured another ladle of cold water on it. Butler Zhang was stunned on the spot, obviously not having recovered yet.

The head of the Zhu family looked at him and said, "Master Tang asked you a few questions, and you must answer them truthfully."

Butler Zhang looked over blankly.

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "Where is the Xiao family's money hidden?"

Butler Zhang said in a daze: "No, I didn't hide it."

How could the Xiao family, as the richest family in Quzhou, only have 3 taels of silver? Tangning looked at the head of the Zhu family and said, "How about you help me ask?"

Butler Zhang looked at the head of the Zhu family, his body couldn't help but tremble, and his voice was crying, and he trembled: "It's really not true. All the money earned by the Xiao family has been shipped to Runzhou. There really is nothing here..."

Tang Ning looked at him and asked, "King Qian is in Runzhou?"

Butler Zhang looked up at him, a look of surprise appeared on his face, and the next moment he said: "I, I don't know what King Qian is..."

Tangning looked at the head of the Zhu family again and said, "How about..."

Butler Zhang shook his body and said immediately: "Here, King Qian and the Crown Prince are in Runzhou, and the worshipers are all in Runzhou..."

Tangning asked again: "Do you know Bai Jin?"

"Bai Gongfeng used to only be active in the capital, but he came to Jiangnan a few days ago..."

"Where's Su Mei?"

"Miss Su is Bai Chongfeng's apprentice. She has an unparalleled appearance. Many people like her, including the prince..."

……

I don't know how much inhuman torture this Butler Zhang had just experienced. Tang Ning asked him a question, and he answered a few questions. He poured out everything like beans from a bamboo tube.

What he said was not much different from what Tangning had guessed. It just confirmed his guess and made a certain clue clearer.

He looked at Butler Zhang and finally asked, "What is King Qian's plan?"

Butler Zhang said: "No, King Qian has no plan."

Tangning looked to the side and said, "I wish the master of the family..."

Butler Zhang broke down and cried: "King Qian really has no plan. King Qian is dead. How can a dead man have a plan?"

Tangning was stunned, a little disbelieving, and asked, "King Qian is dead?"

Butler Zhang looked at him and said: "His Royal Highness King Qian died of illness in Runzhou a few months ago. What I told is all the truth. You believe me, you believe me..."

……

Tang Ning did not doubt the truth of what Butler Zhang said, because Bai Jin left in a hurry, as if someone had died in her family, but the fact was that someone really died in her family.

The King of Guizhou is Bai Jin's master, and he is the most important part of her plan to restore the country. She has been deploying it for many years, and no step can be missing, but the King of Guizhou cannot be missing.

Now that King Qian is dead, so what if she regains her kingdom? She can't become the emperor herself, right?

Life is unpredictable and events are unpredictable. King Qian is still not destined to be the emperor. Thinking about it from another perspective, Bai Jin's mission has failed, and Su Mei's kindness to her has been repaid. From now on, each of them can walk on the same road. Wouldn't it be happy?

However, this was an advantage to Gongsun Ying. Bai Jin and Gongsun Ying each had their own masters, and their goal was to restore the country. Now that Bai Jin's master is dead, Gongsun Ying and the King of Wu she was loyal to, didn't they win the biggest one? opponent?

As soon as Tangning returned to the inn, Gongsun Ying walked out of the room and said, "The Xiao family also has a butler in the Zhu Mansion. If we find him, we will definitely get more information."

Tang Ning said, "I've already been to the Zhu family."

Gongsun Ying looked at him and asked, "Did you find out the whereabouts of the silver?"

Tang Ning said: "All the Xiao Mansion's silver was shipped to King Qian. It's normal that there is none here."

Gongsun Ying thought for a while and said, "I'll ask again. Maybe there's any missing news."

"Don't you just want to know where King Qian is?" Tang Ning waved her hand and said, "No need to ask, King Qian is dead."

Gongsun Ying was stunned and said in disbelief: "Qian, King Qian is dead?"

"He died of illness a few months ago." Tangning looked at her and said, "Bai Jin came to Jiangnan in a hurry just for this matter."

After Gongsun Ying came back to his senses, his expression changed several times, and the muscles on his face began to twitch.

Tangning glanced at her and said, "Just laugh if you want, the crow's feet are almost showing..."

"Hahahahahaha..."

Lao Zheng was sharpening his knife in the yard when he was suddenly frightened by the wild laughter of a woman outside and split his whetstone in half...
