In the Zhao family's main hall.
Zhao Guangda sat on the main seat. He was in his early fifties, but his spirit was hale and hearty. He did not look old at all. His clothes were meticulously taken care of. One look and you could tell that he was a very particular person.
Below him sat a middle-aged man in his early thirties.
The middle-aged man was called Qin Li.
He was someone arranged by Li Shentong.
Qin Li's purpose of coming was to make Zhao Guangda determined to cause trouble. He came a few days ago and persuaded Zhao Guangda to arrange for people to cause trouble. Especially since Zhao Guangda had received benefits from Qin Li, he wanted to carry out Li Shentong's arrangements.
It was also because of this that when Xia Lie came and said that Du Qi invited Zhao Guangda, Zhao Guangda directly refused. When Zhao Guangda and Qin Li were chatting, they suddenly heard a sound coming from outside.
The sound of the door being knocked down was extremely shocking. Zhao Guangda also heard it. He stood up and asked, "What's going on outside?"
At this moment, the gatekeeper rushed in and reported, "Family Head, Xia Lie is here again. He brought people to break down our house's door and has already barged in. "
"Bastard!"
Zhao Guangda's eyes sharpened.
His face was full of anger.
In any case, he was also the village chief of the village. He had some strength. But now, Zhao Guangda actually brought people to break down the door. It was simply lawless.
Zhao Guangda said, "Mister Qin, you stay in the main hall. I will go and take care of it."
"No, I will go with you."
Qin Li shook his head and said.
Zhao Guangda did not refuse. He brought Qin Li together and went straight to the courtyard's door. At this time, Du Qi's people and the Zhao family's guards were confronting each other.
In fact, in Du Qi's eyes, the Zhao family's people were all clay chickens and pottery dogs. Destroying the Zhao family was just a matter of turning over his palm. It was just that Du Qi had not given the order for now.
Zhao Guangda walked out and gritted his teeth, "Xia Lie, you have big guts. A mere merchant is only in charge of repairing the road. You actually dared to bring people to break down my Zhao family's door and barge into the house. You really have guts! "
Du Qi said directly, "It's not Xia Lie who has guts. It's me who has guts. It was this Young Master's order to destroy the Zhao Family's residence. This is this Young Master's arrangement. "
After a pause, Du Qi continued, "By the way, I'm Du Qi. I'm the one who asked Xia Lie to invite you. Yet you avoided meeting him and even rejected him in public. "
Zhao Guangda's expression gradually became serious.
There was a grave look in his eyes.
Du Qi actually came in person.
Zhao Guangda took a deep breath and suppressed the perturbed emotions in his heart. He opened his mouth and said, "I wonder what Young Master Du came to my Zhao Family for?"
Du Qi said, "Zhao Guangda, there's no point in beating around the bush. You want to stop me from building the road, and you also want to destroy the Feng Shui. How hateful. I'll give you another chance to make a choice. Do you really not agree with the road construction and want to obstruct us from doing so? "
Now that Zhao Guangda was serving Li Shentong, it was impossible for him to change his decision.
Hearing Du Qi's words, he gritted his teeth and said, "Young Master Du, I don't want to obstruct the road construction. What I said about the road construction suppressing the ley line in my village and affecting the Feng Shui of the village is very reasonable. If not, I wouldn't have made trouble. Young Master, please believe me. I don't need to deceive Young Master Du. "
Du Qi said lightly, "But you're still deceiving this Young Master."
Zhao Guangda said, "I swear to Heaven and Earth that if I deceive Young Master Du, I'll be struck by lightning."
Du Qi said, "You should be struck by lightning. Because of your own selfishness, you actually obstructed the road construction. Because of your own selfishness, you even disregarded the villagers in the village. If you want to die, I'll fulfill your wish. "
Zhao Guangda said with a dark face, "Could it be that Young Master Du wants to kill people by force? Under the clear sky, I'm afraid Young Master Du's way of doing things is difficult to convince the public and also difficult to explain to the Imperial Court. "
Du Qi said, "This Young Master is authorized by His Majesty to act first and report later. I don't need to explain to anyone. What's more, since Zhao Guangda became the Village Chief, you used your power for personal gain. You took many of the village's fertile fields for yourself and even plundered the people's wealth. "
"People like you deserve to die!"
"Especially when you have a lot of other evidence of your crimes. Old and new debts will be settled together. Today, I'll kill you first. I want to see how you, Zhao Guangda, will resist. "
"Kill!"
Du Qi directly gave the order.
Just a Village Chief.
Du Qi gave Zhao Guangda a chance, but Zhao Guangda didn't grasp it. You can't blame Du Qi.
"Wait!"
At this time, someone spoke.
It was Qin Li who spoke.
Zhao Guangda saw Qin Li speak and a smile appeared on his face. There was even a hint of expectation. Qin Li was Du Qi's strategist. He could certainly turn the tide. After all, Du Qi was just a second generation official.
Li Shentong was different. He was a real imperial family member. He was the Duke of Huai An in the imperial court. He was much more powerful than Du Qi.
Du Qi said, "You are?"
Qin Li went straight to the point, "I'm Qin Li, the strategist of Duke of Huai An, Li Shentong. Du Qi, this Zhao Guangda is the Duke's man. You want to touch Zhao Guangda? Why don't you try? "
"Hahaha …"
After Du Qi heard it, he laughed loudly.
Qin Li said, "What are you laughing at?"
Du Qi put his hands behind his back and said in a deep voice, "This Young Master is laughing at how stupid you are as Li Shentong's strategist. Now, let alone you, Qin Li, even if Li Shentong comes personally, he can't stop me from killing Zhao Guangda. "
"Since you're here, you must be conspiring with Zhao Guangda to stop the road construction. Zhao Guangda's actions today were instigated by you. "
Du Qi said, "You, Qin Li, and Zhao Guangda, none of you can escape."
Qin Li's eyes were sharp as he said, "Du Qi, you're spouting venomous slander. I'm just following the Duke's order to discuss something with Zhao Guangda. I didn't stop the road construction. It's because your road construction hindered the geomancy of the villagers, so the villagers collectively opposed it. "
Du Qi said, "Whether I'm spouting venomous slander or not, it's not up to you, Qin Li. It's up to me, Du Qi. Men, take him down. Kill anyone who resists without mercy. "
Under his order, Mordor, Xiao Yuanqi, and the others rushed out.
More than a hundred people moved at the same time. Especially since they were all old soldiers, the battle on the battlefield was extremely fierce. A group of people rushed out like ferocious tigers coming down the mountain. Although the Zhao Family had guards, they simply couldn't stop them.
The two sides exchanged blows. In just a short time, the Zhao Family's guards were forced to retreat.
Especially since Du Qi had just given the order to kill anyone who stood in his way, so Xiao Yuanqi and the others went all out. Their swords fell and fell on the guards' bodies. Every time the swords fell, blood would be seen.
In a flash, more than ten people died.
More than twenty people were injured.
Seeing this, the Zhao Family's guards were all frightened. Their faces changed greatly and they all quickly retreated. They didn't dare to continue resisting, because resistance meant death.
Qin Li and Zhao Guangda were immediately exposed and surrounded by Du Qi's people.
Du Qi walked in front of Zhao Guangda and Qin Li, looked at the two of them and said, "Tell me, is your secret plan to stop the road construction and increase the trouble for the construction team?"
"No, no!"
Qin Li shook his head and answered.
Zhao Guangda also insisted, "Mr. Qin came here to say that it was Duke Huai 'an's arrangement. He never said that he wanted to stop the road construction. The reason why I stopped the road construction is because this road blocked the village's feng shui. "
Du Qi sneered.
These two really didn't shed tears until they saw the coffin.
Du Qi said, "Mordor, break one of Qin Li's legs."
"Yes!"
Mordor stepped forward and grabbed Qin Li.
Qin Li was just a scholar. He was thin and didn't have much strength. In front of Mordor, he was like a little chick. He was caught in an instant. Qin Li was dragged until his body screamed in pain. He struggled even more, trying to break free from Mordor's hand.
But it was all in vain with Mordor.
Mordor threw Qin Li to the ground. Qin Li screamed and fell to the ground. The next moment, Mordor stepped on him. With a crack, Qin Li's leg bones were broken.
