Daming: The system rejected my request for salted fish

Chapter 1072

Now that he heard it was serious business, he immediately turned to look at Xiao Qi and asked:

"What news did you hear at Leyun Pavilion?"

"Report to your lord!"

Hearing Wei Wu talking to him, Xiao Qi quickly bowed and saluted in response, then continued:

"I was just staking out Leyun Pavilion and discovered that most of the wealthy merchants and gentry in Suzhou City have actually all come to Leyun Pavilion."

"At first I thought they were here for fun, but then I realized they all went into one room and didn't have any women to accompany them."

"Then I reached the window and heard them planning to attack you tonight, so I hurried back."

Going to Leyun Pavilion to discuss again?

After hearing what Xiao Qi said, Wei Wu's eyes immediately lit up.

"Let me ask you, are they still in Leyun Pavilion?"

"I'm not sure, but they should still be in Leyun Pavilion. They didn't leave before I came back."

As soon as Xiao Qi finished speaking, a smile immediately appeared on Wei Wu's face.

"Okay, very good! I originally thought it might take some effort, but I didn't expect these guys to save me a lot of trouble!"

As he spoke, Wei Wu turned his head and looked at Ma Baoguo.

"Ma Baoguo, take your men to the prefectural yamen immediately and tell Zhu Zongshan to gather all the yamen runners."

"If you run into Shen Lin on the road, have him join you and bring the people from the government office to capture those guys!"

The reason why Wei Wu asked Zhang Hai to go to the garrison to mobilize troops was mainly because it was too troublesome to arrest them one by one and it was easy to make mistakes.

If someone got the news, the man would probably have packed up his belongings and run away before the soldiers could even show up.

But now, since all these people have gathered in Leyun Pavilion, things will be easy. We can just catch them all in one fell swoop.

The prefectural government can at least send dozens of people, plus the Jinyiwei under Ma Baoguo, the force is sufficient.

After all, those people are not desperate criminals, but wealthy businessmen with some money and power, so it is easy to deal with them.

After hearing Wei Wu's order, Ma Baoguo did not dare to hesitate at all and immediately prepared to leave with Xiao Qi.

But at the last moment, he suddenly turned to look at Wei Wu and asked:

"Sir, how about I leave some people with you, so that if those Yuan-Mongol assassins come again, you will have someone to protect you."

After listening to Ma Baoguo's proposal, Wei Wu just waved his hand and said:

"It doesn't matter. If they really dare to come back, I guarantee that as many of them as come will die!"

Hearing this, Ma Baoguo didn't say anything else. He nodded, turned around and left with Xiao Qi.

After the two men left, Wei Wu flipped his wrist, took out a shotgun and put it aside, then took out a can of Red Bull.

"I have tanks, planes, cannons, and a can of stimulants. Anyone who comes will die!"

After saying that, Wei Wu pulled the ring and swallowed the whole can of Red Bull in one gulp.

At the same time, after Shen Lin put the Yuan Mongols in prison, he immediately rushed back and prepared to return to Wei Wu.

However, when he was halfway back, he met Ma Baoguo. Just as he was about to ask something, Ma Baoguo spoke first.

After receiving Wei Wu's order from Ma Baoguo, Shen Lin followed Ma Baoguo back to the yamen.

After waking up the prefect Zhu Zongshan, Ma Baoguo directly took out his Jinyiwei credentials and asked Zhu Zongshan to cooperate.

The Jinyiwei were the emperor's personal army, and since it was an important matter, Zhu Zongshan did not hesitate and immediately ordered people to gather the yamen runners.

Before long, except for the yamen runners living outside the city, most of the rest were called to the yamen.

Then a team of seventy or eighty people, led by Ma Baoguo, rushed directly to the gate of Leyun Pavilion.

boom!

After the door was kicked open, a group of people rushed in with knives following Xiao Qi amid the screams of waiters and prostitutes.

At this moment, those wealthy businessmen and gentry were still staying in Leyun Pavilion waiting for news, just as Xiaoqi had guessed.

After all, the person to be killed tonight is the Duke of the current dynasty, and they are worried until they get the exact news.

At the same time, because the atmosphere was too tense, although drinking was not supposed to be allowed at such gatherings, many people still ordered some.

They drank glass after glass of alcohol to suppress the panic in their hearts, and some people even drank a little too much.

"Hey, I don't know if those Yuan Mongols can succeed. If they fail, what should we do?"

"It shouldn't have missed. Didn't we all hear the explosion just now? Even gunpowder was used. He must be dead."

"We only heard the explosion, but we didn't see Wei Wu's body. If he's not dead, we'll be dead!"

In the gloomy and depressing atmosphere, these wealthy businessmen and gentry would inevitably gather in groups of three or four and whisper to each other.

Many of them felt a little regretful and thought they shouldn't have taken such a big risk to do this.

But it's too late to say anything now. I can only sit here anxiously waiting for the result.

But at this moment, they suddenly heard screams and chaotic footsteps coming from outside.

And the chaotic noise was getting closer and closer, and it felt like it was coming towards where he was.

"Did you hear that? Something seems to have happened outside!"

"It's over! Could it be that our secret has been exposed and the government has sent people to arrest us?"

"It's over, it's over! I told you we shouldn't do this, and now we're all doomed. Even our families can't escape!"

Seeing that the wealthy businessmen and gentry in the room began to panic, Bao Guanjiao, the mastermind, immediately started to scold them.

"Okay, why are you panicking?"

Hearing Bao Guanjiao's voice, everyone looked over. At this time, Bao Guanjiao continued:

"Even if the government wanted to arrest someone, they would come to our house. Why would they come to Leyun Pavilion? They don't even know we're here."

"Send someone out to check. Maybe it's just someone drunk and causing trouble. The noise outside is from the guards of Leyun Pavilion."

Although Bao Guanjiao's words were not very convincing, as the backbone of the group, he spoke and everyone calmed down a little.

Now they just hope that things are just as Bao Guanjiao said, and the commotion outside is not directed at them.

However, at this moment, the door of their room was kicked open with a bang.

Looking at the yamen runners rushing in from outside with steel knives in their hands, all the expectations of these people turned into bubbles.

Then Ma Baoguo opened his mouth and said something that made them despair.

"You bunch of bastards, your crime has been exposed. Come, arrest all these bastards and take them back to the government office!"
