Chapter 172 Yazhou is about to rebel
The Fu family was still immersed in the joy of the marriage of Young Master Rong Xuan, and was completely unaware that an accident was quietly approaching. Little did they know that a letter of withdrawal from the woman's mansion was like a sudden cold wind in winter, trying to sweep away this warmth.
The people in the Fu family don't know anything yet. They only know that their son is happily engaged, but now the girl's family wants to come and cancel the engagement.
Facing this unexpected change, the elders of the Fu family were embarrassed. Although they were unwilling and reluctant, they could only force themselves to remain calm and treat the family with courtesy. "Rong Xuan is out at the moment. Without his approval, it is difficult for us to take charge of the family affairs. Such important matters as marriage still need his personal attention before we can decide. Could you please wait for a while until Rong Xuan returns before discussing it?"
Hu Lianxue knew clearly in her heart that no matter what, the outcome of this matter would not change.
This was the result Fu Rongxuan wanted. He would definitely agree to it, so he didn't force it.
Leng Shiyun planned to take her to another farm to recuperate for a while before coming back, and Hu Lianxue did not refuse.
……
At the same time, Wei Songhan had arrived in Yazhou.
On the surface, Li Kun's family decorated the house with lights and gave a warm welcome, but in reality, undercurrents were surging and everyone had their own ulterior motives.
Li Kun was very clear in his mind. His last plan not only failed to trip Wei Songhan, but instead allowed him to escape like a dragon entering the sea. This unwillingness and fear pierced his heart like a poisonous thorn.
Sure enough, as soon as he arrived, he announced that he would investigate the Yazhou corruption case. After finding out the truth, he would be able to deal with those corrupt officials directly without asking for permission.
Li Kun knew in his heart that this was obviously aimed at their family.
But at this point, Wei Songhan had no choice but to accept the situation.
He had already had this idea in mind. Since His Majesty could not tolerate them, they would establish themselves as kings in the local area and continue to prosper.
To achieve this goal, you must first convince your father and then get rid of Wei Songhan.
There are a large number of weapons in his warehouse, all of which are extremely lethal muskets. No matter how many troops Wei Songhan leads, they cannot defeat him. He is full of confidence.
Jing Zhuo is still very useful, but I haven't seen him for some time.
I don’t know what he is doing behind my back. If this brat is not useful to me, it’s better to get rid of him, otherwise he will fall into the hands of others and pose a great threat to me.
As he thought about it, he found that his brain was really getting smarter and smarter, and he couldn't help feeling proud of himself.
Jing Zhuo seemed to have sensed that things were about to change in Yazhou.
But at this point in time, she was about to give birth, but if she hid on Nanzhou Island, she would definitely be hunted down by Li Kun.
Now I can only use other weapons to attract his attention and prevent him from attacking me for the time being.
She would go there every full moon day and bring back all kinds of medical equipment, various modern weapons, and modern electrical appliances. Now she has countless things in her hands.
When she was pregnant, her belly was bigger than usual, so she checked herself with an ultrasound machine. Jing Zhuo was surprised to find that there were two babies in her belly.
When she thought about having two children around her in the future, she suddenly felt a headache.
But now the matter is done and the delivery date is almost here. There is nothing I can do about it and I can only think of a way to give birth to the baby safely.
Fortunately, all kinds of tools for production were also brought over, and even various baby products, diapers, milk powder...
Jing Zhuo heard that the court had sent an official to investigate the Li family, but he never thought that this person would be Wei Songhan.
Now she pretended not to know him, and could not meet him or let him find out anything.
Just at this time, Li Kun came to her house. She was in such a state that she could not face anyone, so she could only ask her mother Jing Xiangxue to help.
As soon as Li Kun came in, he sat down in a swaggering manner. "Madam, where is Jing Zhuo? I haven't seen him for many days. I wonder what he is busy with these days?"
Jing Xiangxue evaded the question by saying, "Zhuo'er is ill, and it is an infectious disease. He cannot see outsiders. If Lord Li has any urgent matters, please inform me and I will pass on the message for him."
"Huh, infectious disease?" Li Kun just thought it was a trick to fool him.
"By the way, Lord Li, although my son is not feeling well, he has developed some new weapons today. If you give him some time, he should be able to start mass production."
This aroused Li Kun's interest. Jing Zhuo was always unexpected.
"What weapon?"
Jing Xiangxue ordered his men to take out the submachine gun. As soon as Li Kun got it in his hand, he was surprised. This rifle was more refined and lighter than the previous ones.
"This gun can fire continuously and is easier to operate. What do you think, sir?"
"It seems to be a little lighter, but I don't know how to use it."
Jing Xiangxue said humbly: "It is still in the improvement stage. Please give me some time. Zhuoer will definitely complete the improvement."
Li Kun asked cautiously, "How many days will it take?"
"This...will probably take about half a month."
"I only give you five days. After five days, I will come again. If you fail to complete the task, your whole family will die!" Li Kun said this with a smile, and then left with his men.
"Five days... I don't know if it will be enough."
Jing Zhuo walked out slowly from behind the door, "There's still time. Quickly notify everyone at home, close the shop, and notify the Red Fire Army. Take your people to Nanzhou Island to hide first. Everything will be discussed after this storm is over."
She had a feeling that Li Kun was going to make some big moves, so she had to ensure the safety of everyone in the family first.
"Zhuo'er, come with us!"
"I can't go. If I go, Li Kun will definitely be suspicious. Maybe he has someone guarding outside to prevent him from discovering the secrets of Nanzhou Island. It's still safe there, but if I go there, it will become unsafe."
"Then I won't go either. You are about to give birth. If I leave, what will you do alone, Zhuo'er?"
"Mom, don't worry about me. I have my own way."
"That won't work. You are my child. I must protect you. I will not leave you."
"mother……"
Although Jing Zhuo also hoped that Jing Xiangxue could stay by her side, she couldn't be so selfish at this moment.
"Li Kun won't kill me. After all, I know how to make so many weapons."
Jing Xiangxue refused to go, and not only that, even Jing Qiudie was determined to stay.
"I will make arrangements for your sister-in-law and Brother Chen and the others. I will come back to be with you."
Last time, she failed to protect her elder sister, this time, she must protect them no matter what.
As luck would have it, Jing Zhuo's stomach began to ache severely on the fifth night, and she knew that the two children were about to be born.
Wei Songhan has been sending people to investigate Li Kun and discovered that Li Kun has several important subordinates who have been guarding the door of a house.
He vaguely felt that the house was somewhat familiar, as if he had seen it in a dream.
Thinking of the person who once saved me, could it be this family?
No matter what, since Li Kun was able to send people to guard here, this family must be extremely important to him.
He planned to send his men to investigate and see what was going on inside.
The men went to investigate and found that the entire house was unusually quiet, as if everyone had gathered in the yard at the back.
There were not even a few servants, and they were standing guard at the gate of a secluded courtyard with a worried look on their faces.
Just as he was about to sneak in, he was discovered by a woman.
The woman was not flustered. She just looked up at him in his night clothes and asked, "If I'm not mistaken, you should be a subordinate of Lord Wei, right?"
The subordinate didn't expect that the woman actually knew all this.
"Lord Wei is investigating Li Kun. This is well known. Please come with me. I have prepared some things. Please give them to Lord Wei."
The subordinate jumped down from the tree lightly, and was wondering if there was any conspiracy involved, but the person in front of him was just a woman and should not pose any threat.
Jing Qiudie handed a thick stack of evidence to him, "These are the evidence that Li Kun was corrupt, took bribes, and oppressed the people. Please hand them over to Lord Wei."
His men had not expected that there was such a secret hidden here. Even Li Kun himself was unaware of the existence of these evidences.
Then she took out a key and handed it to the subordinate, "This is the key to the storehouse in the west of the city. There are many things hidden in it. Lord Wei will understand after seeing it."
"I have something urgent to do, so I'm sorry I can't see you off. You'd better leave quickly to avoid being discovered."
The subordinate immediately took the things and left Jing Mansion, handing them to Wei Songhan.
Wei Songhan thought thoughtfully, "It is indeed Jing Zhuo, but why would he help me like this?"
He recalled that Jing Zhuo was the only one who spoke to him at the dinner table that day. Could it be that he stayed with Li Kun just to collect these evidences?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that way.
Jing Zhuo reached a critical moment. She felt a stomachache and had no strength left in her body. She told her mother, "I should be pregnant with twins this time. Don't be surprised. Deliver them one by one."
"Twins?"
"I have taught you many times before, you should be able to operate it."
In order to ensure a smooth birth at home, she had taught her mother a lot of books on childbirth. But when the time really came, Jing Xiangxue started to get nervous, after all, it was her first time doing such a thing.
Li Kun saw that the time was almost up and was about to go find Jing Zhuo.
Wei Songhan also took the opportunity to bring his men to the warehouse in the west of the city, and found that it was full of muskets and ammunition. He immediately understood what Jing Zhuo meant.
Another subordinate hurried over and said, "Sir, sir, I found that Li Kun is heading to Jing Mansion! He seems to have bad intentions."
"Take your weapons and go to Jing Mansion immediately!"
Li Kun is determined to get the new weapons this time. This time, Jing Zhuo's mother did not show up, only Jing Zhuo's aunt appeared, and she talked some nonsense to him, as if delaying time.
"I don't have time to waste! Hand over what I want and I'll spare your life. Otherwise, I'll burn this yard down and leave you dead without a burial place!"
Jing Qiudie was anxious because Jing Zhuo was at the critical moment of giving birth and no one should disturb her at this time.
But Li Kun obviously had lost her patience. She had already notified the soldiers of the Red Fire Army to come, hoping that they could arrive in time and delay some time.
At this moment, footsteps were suddenly heard outside.
Li Kun seemed to be suspicious, "Go out and see what happened?"
When his men opened the door and looked out, they were obviously shocked to see that the outside was surrounded by soldiers, holding the kind of muskets they had.
Jing Zhuo also knew the current situation. She endured the pain and asked the maid to release the flare.
"The situation here is about to change. Quickly notify the people in the water fort to come and help!"
After a moment of daze, Li Kun saw fireworks being launched from the inner room, and he became alert: "Oh no, Jing Zhuo is lying to us."
He actually dared to play tricks on him. He must kill this guy with his own hands!
Li Kun was ready to enter the inner room with a musket, find Jing Zhuo, and kill everyone there.
Wei Songhan led his men to surround the place. He had obtained all the evidence, but he did not intend to give up. He planned to rescue Jing Zhuo. After all, he was a hero and he could not let his sacrifice be in vain.
"Master Li, there are more and more people outside. Don't rush to kill them. They may need you again. Leaving them behind can be used as bargaining chips."
Li Kun rolled his eyes slyly, "You are right. Let's save their lives for now."
Outside the door, Wei Songhan shouted loudly: "Lord Li, a man who knows the current situation is a hero. I believe you don't want to lose your life directly. If you surrender obediently, I can still spare your life!"
Li Kun shouted through the door in dissatisfaction: "Why haven't you come in yet? Don't you want Jing Zhuo to die? I tell you, if I die, I will make him and his whole family be buried with me. There are twelve lives here, and I won't let any of them go!"
Li Kun laughed arrogantly, "My father is leading his men on the way here. Are you sure you want to start a fight here? There are many innocent people living here."
As he spoke, he pulled Jiang Jingqiudie over and put the muzzle of the gun against her back, "If you don't believe me, I'll kill a chicken to scare the monkeys!"
Several maids around had already started to tremble, looking weak and useless.
"And you, shout louder so that Wei Da Ren can hear how many innocent people are going to die because of him."
"Help... Help, I don't want to die yet." A maid began to cry and shout.
Li Kun was very satisfied and was about to pull the trigger, but suddenly he found that a maid suddenly took out a small object and fired several shots at him.
Not only him, but even his men who came in were all shot to the ground by the pistol.
These maids all looked very weak, but they could actually shoot and chose the right time.
Li Kun was shot several times, one of which hit his chest. He fell in a pool of blood, barely breathing, and said unwillingly, "You...you plotted against me."
