Chapter 60: Killing night, unexpected gain!(1/2)

 Wu Mansion.

Wu Wanggeng was sitting in the hall, accompanied by several other people.

The door was closed, the candlelight was dim, and everyone looked very ugly.

Wu Wanggeng picked up the tea cup, as if he wanted to drink tea, but his hands were shaking so badly that the tea in the cup was about to spill out.

In the end, he did not drink, but put the tea cup down.

When the cup hit the table, the tea finally overflowed and fell to the ground along the table.

"Brother, you don't have to worry too much."

The person at the bottom said: "Although the assassination of Zhu Yunxuan failed, we didn't leave anything behind."

"All of these desperadoes who assassinated His Royal Highness have been killed."

"What they did has nothing to do with our Wu family."

Wu Wanggeng felt a little calmer.

Ever since he saw Zhu Yunxu escaping in a carriage, he felt intensely uneasy.

"The little girl who finally rescued Zhu Yunxuan today was Xu Miaojin, the daughter of the King of Zhongshan?"

He said in surprise: "I always feel that the little girl glanced at me at the end, maybe she saw me."

"Brother, you are too concerned." The next person smiled and said: "Don't say it was so far away at the time, even if you saw it, you couldn't see clearly."

"Besides, even if she sees clearly, she doesn't recognize you, so why worry about it?"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a sudden "bang" sound outside, and the door to the outer courtyard of Wu Mansion was forcibly opened.

"It's not good, it's not good, sir, there are many guards in uniform breaking in outside."

……

"What crime did Wu commit, and why did you break into a house at night?"

Wu Wanggeng suppressed the fear in his heart and asked sharply.

Jin Yiwei found out so quickly?

Impossible!

I'm afraid it will take several days just to verify the identity of the assassin in black.

Moreover, even if the man in black is found, his Wu Mansion will not be involved.

What's more, the King of Qin, Zhu Xi, will definitely try to cover it up secretly.

How is it possible that Jin Yiwei is coming to your door tonight?

Zhu Yunzhen looked at Wu Wanggeng and said, "Are you Wu Wanggeng, the head of the Wu family?"

Wu Wanggeng said: "The grassroots people are just right."

"Okay!" Zhu Yunxu nodded and said, "My name is Zhu Yunxu."

"My grandfather is the emperor of the Ming Dynasty today."

His tone is very calm, neither sad nor happy. Except for the fact that his voice is still very young and crisp, there is no emotion at all.

But for some reason, Wu Wanggeng heard murderous intent in his voice.

The murderous intention of a seven-year-old child is as sharp as a knife and makes people shudder.

"When I was hunting from Yangshan to respond to the sky, I was assassinated."

"I have found out that the person who assassinated me was instigated by your Wu Mansion."

Wu Wanggeng was horrified and said hurriedly: "This is impossible. Our Wu family has always been law-abiding and we would never dare to do such a rebellious thing."

"Your Majesty, does your Majesty have any evidence?"

Zhu Yunzhen looked up at him, his eyes unblinking, and suddenly said: "I saw you, you were watching secretly not far away."

Boom!

Like thunder striking suddenly.

Wu Wanggeng stumbled and fell to the ground.

Next to him, another member of the Wu family shouted loudly: "Fight them, kill them!"

The people of the Wu family suddenly seemed like crazy, roaring and rushing toward Zhu Yunxu.

They don't want to sit back and wait for death, but want to fight to the death.

"Choke! Choke!"

There were sounds of drawing swords, and Jin Yiwei took action simply and neatly.

Poof!

Several feet of blood spattered.

Zhu Yunxuan had no expression on his face and said softly: "Actually, I didn't see you, so I lied to you."

It's a pity that the dead cannot hear these words.

Jin Yiwei's sword is very fast.

After a while, everyone in the Wu family fell into a pool of blood.

Jiang Wei did not take any action, and kept guarding Zhu Yunxuan to prevent him from being attacked by others, and also observed his expression from time to time.

Compared with the first time, Zhu Yunxuan has grown a lot.

There was no longer any fear in his eyes.

He opened his eyes and watched all this calmly and numbly.

Jiang Wei opened his mouth several times to say something, but in the end he swallowed it all.

After all the people in the Wu family were killed, Zhu Yunzhen did not leave, but stepped into Wu Wanggeng's study.

The people of Jinyiwei rushed in.

"Search every corner, every book, every piece of paper, search carefully."

He wasn't sure whether the Wu family would leave any clues to contact the person behind it, but he just didn't want to let go of any chance.

Jin Yiwei immediately rummaged through the box and started looking for it.

"Look, there's a secret door here."

A soldier in royal robes screamed in shock.

Zhu Yunxuan was slightly surprised.

He didn't expect to gain anything, but he didn't expect it?

After walking in, I discovered that there was actually a mourning hall inside.

Zhu Yunxuan's eyes were suddenly attracted by the words written on the spirit tablet.

Jiang Wei was so shocked that he blurted out.

"Wu Wanggeng is a descendant of the Pu family in Quanzhou? His surname is not Wu, but Pu?"

The densely packed tablets are all the ancestors of the Pu family, and the one in the middle is Quanzhou Pu Shougeng.

Strictly speaking, the Pu family is not Han Chinese, but comes from overseas.

Since the Song Dynasty, he moved to Quanzhou and has been engaged in maritime trade for generations.

Through monopolizing the overseas spice trade and some illegal means, he has amassed huge wealth.

At its peak, the number of slaves in his family reached several thousand.

Later, Yuan soldiers went south, and a large number of royal family members and scholar-bureaucrats gathered in Quanzhou.

Pu Shougeng surrendered to the Yuan Dynasty and massacred more than 3,000 Southern Song Dynasty royal family members and scholar-bureaucrats.

Pu Shougeng was therefore named the general of the country.

During the Yuan Dynasty and the Ming Dynasty, people of the Pu family were engaged in business and officials at the same time. They had both wealth and honor, and were famous for a while.

After Zhu Yuanzhang overthrew the Yuan Dynasty and unified the world, he hated the Pu family for what he had done. He decreed that no one from the Pu family could enter the court as an official. Men would be slaves for generations, and women would be prostitutes for generations.

Since then, the Pu family has been running around and hiding their names.

"Wu Wanggeng? Wu Wanggeng?"

Zhu Yunxuan murmured to himself.

It turns out that the meaning of his name is not to forget the ancestor Pu Shougeng?

Do you still want to do what Pu Shougeng did in the past and restore the power of the Pu family?

What a wealthy businessman from Suzhou is just a disguise.

His true identity is a fugitive from the Pu family.
