Chapter 435 The Rong family was exterminated

 Facts prove that Jian Junyi is right.

Hu Die had a say in this matter: "I just want to find someone who treats me well. Your Highness treats Xi Yan very well, and there is a quiet backyard. Don't be like Prince Wang who has a bunch of women in the backyard. He wants me to be his concubine. No matter how short of a man I am, I won’t be able to stoop to being a man’s concubine.”

Jian Junyi's eyes darkened slightly when he heard Hu Die mentioning a strange man: "Prince Wang?"

"Mr. Jian is not in the capital, so of course he doesn't know who the prince is. He is a well-known romantic young man in the whole capital. He is the eldest son of Duke Cao. He is about to get married. There are a lot of beautiful girls in the backyard. He actually had an idea for me. Fortunately, it was just a whim, and I had Xiyan protecting me..."

As Hu Die talked, he felt that he was going too far: "Since Prince Wang has nothing to do with me, it's okay not to mention it."

Jian Junyi’s eyes darkened. She was actually talking about the prince of the Duke’s mansion? If the prince inherits the title and becomes a prince, and wants to marry her in the future, but he is just a commoner, how can he compete with the prince?

Thinking of this, Jian Junyi, who was still a little hesitant, immediately made up his mind to go to the capital to work for Zhou Mu. He also hoped to make contributions in the future.

Gu Xiyan was walking in front, talking to Zhou Mu while eavesdropping on the conversation between the two behind them.

Zhou Mu could tell at a glance that she was absent-minded. He turned back to look at Jian Junyi and Hu Die, and asked in a low voice: "Madam, do you want to win over them?"

Gu Xiyan did not hide it: "Yes, Mr. Jian has taken a liking to Xiaodie, I have to create opportunities for them."

There are not many good men like Jian Junyi. If Hu Die catches him, it will be Hu Die's good fortune.

"It would be a pity if Madam doesn't want to be a matchmaker." Zhou Mu said in a sinister tone again.

Gu Xiyan was curious: "Master, what's your tone?"

“Madam, there are so many people to care about.” Zhou Mu said and looked away.

Why doesn’t this woman know how to care more about him? All her thoughts were on other people, and she didn't care that her husband didn't have as many guards as her.

Gu Xiyan finally realized that she was jealous of Mr. Zhou even if he was jealous of Hu Die. Could he be any more petty?

"But the person I care about most is always the young master." Gu Xiyan turned Zhou Mu's face to make him look at her.

Although Zhou Mu is jealous, he is better at coaxing.

The fact was as she expected, her kind words without much sincerity made Zhou Mu's face turn from gloomy to bright.

"Madam, your words and deeds must be consistent." Zhou Mu said seriously.

"I have always kept my words and deeds consistent. Well, we have to go back to Suzhou first and then prepare for the capital, right?" Gu Xiyan cleverly diverted Zhou Mu's attention.

Zhou Mu replied: "Wuxi still needs a little time. The people involved in the Wuxi case must be detained before going to Suzhou. Rong Song must also be captured..."

 Speaking of this, his expression suddenly became serious.

Seeing that his expression was wrong, Gu Xiyan also became nervous: "What's wrong?"

"Zhou Xing might kill Rong Song and silence him!" Zhou Mu looked at the clock and felt that it was too late to think of this problem now.

Gu Xiyan couldn't understand for a moment: "Is it necessary? Lu Nan and his daughter are in our hands. Wouldn't it be unnecessary for King Qin to kill Rong Song?"

"That's not necessarily the case! Zhou Xing will kill Rong Song first. If he succeeds, he will definitely find a way to kill Lu Nan. For the sake of the Zheng family, Zhou Xing will definitely do the same." Zhou Mu shook his head and sighed: "It was my carelessness after all. If Zhou Xing We left for Suzhou last night, Rong Song must be dead by now."

 Gu Xiyan’s face didn’t look good either. They were still not cautious enough, otherwise they wouldn’t have faced such a dilemma. If Rong Song dies, the Rong family’s account books may never be found.

"The matter has come to this, and there is no point in thinking about it. Next, we have to protect Lu Nan and his daughter, and we must not let Zhou Xing get close to them again." Gu Xiyan gently held Zhou Mu's hand.

It’s night, Rongjia, Suzhou.

Several black figures silently jumped in from the high wall. The nurse of the Rong family immediately noticed something strange and shouted that there was an assassin. The Rong family suddenly fell into chaos.

Rong Song, escorted by Qian Huyuan, rushed towards Rong Yu's yard in a panic, but he was only halfway there when the assassin blocked his way.

 “Are you from King Qin?!” Rong Song was scared and angry.

　　As early as the day Zhou Mu came to Suzhou, he had trouble sleeping and eating every day. He knew that if the Dong Chuang incident happened, he, the Rong family, and the Zheng family would all perish together.

 It’s just that he didn’t expect that this day would come so quickly.

 The assassin did not answer Rong Song's question, but raised his sword and stabbed Rong Song's vital part.

Although Qian Weiwei's skills were not weak, he quickly fell behind under the siege of so many assassins. He couldn't even handle it himself, let alone protect Rong Song?

In less than half a quarter of an hour, Rong Song was stabbed in the heart and died. He even gave up his breath before he could even make a sound.

Rongyu heard the noise early in the morning, so she changed into a set of maid's clothes, combed her hair into a bun, and then smeared it on her face to make herself look ugly.

 After dressing up, she took some broken silver and some jewelry, and while the house was in chaos, she left Rong's house through the back door.

 Suddenly so many assassins broke into the Rong family, it must be because Zhou Mu found some evidence, and these assassins were killers sent by Zhou Xing to silence them.

 When things got to this point, she knew that only by seeking refuge with Zhou Mu would she have a chance to save her life.

Of course, there is another person, and that person is Jian Junyi.

 Jian Junyi is an upright person and will definitely help her.

 When she arrived at the door of Jian's house, she hesitated again.

If she went to Jian Junyi rashly, would she harm him? Even if you want to find Jian Junyi, you have to do it when no one is around, otherwise neither she nor Jian Junyi will survive.

That day, Zhou Mu came up with a secret decree, took over the Wuxi government, took all the relevant personnel, and rushed to Suzhou.

They arrived in Suzhou early the next morning. As soon as they entered Suzhou City, they heard that Rong Song and his family had been assassinated. Only Rong Yu was missing, and no one in the other Rong family members was spared.

When Gu Xiyan heard the news, she was sure that Zhou Xing had taken action. She was not surprised that Rong Yu could escape.

Rong Song didn’t know how he felt when Rong Song ended up like this. After all, Rong Song’s biggest goal was to avenge his parents. Now that all his enemies have been killed, Rong Song must be feeling very complicated, right?

Zhou Mu took the lead in going to the official office and promulgating the secret decree in public, and then made Lu Nan's crimes public.

Since a group of criminals were to be escorted to Beijing, and Lu Nan, the prefect, was among them, Zhou Mu asked Jian Tongzhi to temporarily take over Lu Nan's position and manage many affairs in Suzhou.

At this moment, the ragged Rong Yu suddenly rushed to Jian Junyi, and everyone recognized that the dirty beggar was actually the bright and radiant Rong Yu in the past.
