Chapter 318: Chapter 274: I Want to Take the Liu Family to Follow the Master (Seeking Monthly Tickets)_2
"Adviser!" The Armored Soldier called while holding onto the handrail.
"Go and summon people to include the direct relatives of those few families into the arrest list, dig up their old cases, and do it quietly outside, don’t give these people time to react and avoid complications. Although I, as an adviser, am not afraid of these troubles, when handling matters on behalf of the Nine Colonels, we should still be quick and clean. Understand?" Gao Yu ordered with a frown.
"Yes!" The Armored Soldier clasped his fist, stepped back, then mounted his horse and galloped away from the troop.
After Gao Yu finished these tasks, he smiled at Yun Tiansheng and said, "Three Families haven’t left yet; it seems they have other ideas in mind. Yun Piaoqi, it’s up to you now, to see if you can break through with these three families and give some help to me." fгeewёbnoѵel.cσm
Yun Tiansheng’s eyes twinkled, "We’re all easing the General’s worries, Military Adviser Gao is too polite; I will do my best."
"Then!" Gao Yu smiled and nodded his head, performing a gesture of support towards Yun Tiansheng and then mounted his horse.
Yun Tiansheng clasped his fists in return.
"Giddyup!"
Gao Yu jerked the reins, turning his horse’s head and led the troop away to the next location.
While Yun Tiansheng, watching the departing troop, turned around with the imperial order in one hand. His silver Feiyu Clothes sparkled dazzlingly in the sunlight.
He gazed at the bystanders behind him and took a big step forward.
Not long after, in Southern City, the Murong Family Head’s eldest was under the pavilion of a private residence he had bought, gathering with seven or eight young generations from other Prefectures of Shu.
Under the gazebo were two long tables laden with delicious food. Nearby, a designed curving stream where wine cups drifted along with the current. Seven or eight people were sitting cross-legged—both men and women; the men suave and dashing, the women delicate and beautiful, all with an extraordinary bearing. Around the gazebo were fluttering white drapes, and outside was a picturesque lotus pond where a high platform sat in the middle, upon which Dancing Girls with flying sleeves danced gracefully.
The others present were from other Prefectures of Shu, mostly from the south. Having come to Jingguan City with their Sect and Noble family for "refuge," away from their own territories, they naturally tried to make good relations with the local Noble Families.
These youngsters were prominent within their own forces, representing their families and Sects, and sought to bond with Murong Family by interacting with Eldest Young Master Murong Fu.
The gathering today was organized by the Murong Family’s eldest son Murong Fu to convey his family’s intentions.
"Gathering everyone today is due to my own troubles, I wish to drown my sorrows in wine, and ask you all to accompany me in this drink. Cheers!" Eldest Young Master Murong, donned in white robe, raised his cup and drained it in one gulp.
The others of course lifted their cups and drank heartily, after which someone naturally asked,
"What troubles Master Murong?"
"Everyone should be aware of what happened yesterday. The Ninth Mountain’s Colonel began a massacre and captured many of Heavenly Pass’s Powerful Men," replied Eldest Young Master Murong, frowning.
"A relative of mine has been caught by this official, causing panic within my clan; my father is actively dealing with it."
As he spoke, his tone carried dissatisfaction, "My Murong Family has some roots in Jingguan; that official really had no right to be so overbearing without cause. He owes my Murong Family an explanation."
Upon saying this, his initial anger and dissatisfaction turned serious; he rose, held up his cup with both hands towards the people seated, looked around with a scrutinizing gaze, and bowed,
"I ask all of you to help convey a message to the elders of your families. I, Murong Fu, do not believe that this official would dare to provoke the public’s wrath. After all, Jingguan City is not governed by one person alone."
With those words, he made his intentions clear.
The faces of the young disciples present changed.
What is he up to?
Was this something they dared to meddle in? Not only did they not dare, but their family elders and Sect seniors wouldn’t dare either.
The Ninth Mountain’s Colonel’s ferocious reputation had spread throughout Jingguan, even into Shu.
To intervene would be like a mouse seeking its own death.
Several people exchanged glances with hesitation in their eyes, choosing not to reach for the wine cups below.
"I naturally support Master Murong," said someone as they raised their wine cup, the one who had asked the question before.
This showed that this person had been "bought over," echoing with Murong Family’s eldest son and taking the opportunity to force these youngsters to pick sides.
"How’s that? Do you not give face to me, Murong Fu?" Murong Fu’s eldest son immediately changed his expression, his eyes turned sharp as he swept over each face, continuing scornfully,
"Be careful with your choice. That Nine Colonels may not recognize your names, but my Murong Family, in Southern City, still has some say. You all came here with your families, alone and without support; you all need to find a place to settle, right?"
His words were clearly a threat!
The faces of those young people changed as they looked at one another.
But just at that moment,
A loud "boom" resounded.
The large door opposite the pavilion across the pond suddenly flew forth and crashed into the pond, scattering lotus blossoms and splashing water, causing the Dancing Girls on the high platform to scream.
At that moment, a towering Red Armor General with a muscular frame stepped in, squinting his eyes,
"Murong Family’s Eldest Young Master,"
"Ha, been looking for you for a long time!"
"What are you? You still expect the Nine Colonels to explain themselves to your Murong Family."
Then the Red Armor General ground his large back teeth, his eyes gleaming coldly like a predator.
