Mingchuan and others were having a great time.

the other side.

When the family of the Lord of Haicheng received the body, they cried and wailed, and they almost vomited their lungs.

The city lord's body lay flat on the ground, covered with a layer of white cloth.

As for the people who delivered the body, they had already left.

The sky was filled with wailing from the crowd, and the city lord's wife's heart was in her throat.

"Why...why? Mingchuan is a general after all, why can he just attack others so casually?!"

"He's a city lord after all. Does that mean he can just do whatever he wants just because he has the king's backing?"

The city lord's wife's eyes were red and she was shaking with anger.

The servant beside her stepped forward to support her, but she pushed him away fiercely, her face full of anger.

"Get out! Get out! Why are you all pretending to be so hypocritical? The city lord is dead, and you guys will leave sooner or later. Don't disgust me here! Get out of here!"

She roared at the top of her lungs, as if she wanted to release all the grievances in her heart.

The other relatives nearby couldn't stand it anymore.

They spoke out to persuade each other.

"Madam, that's enough. That's General Mingchuan, beloved by thousands of people. He has reached his current position entirely through his own strength."

"It's not about having the support of the king..."

"He dared to attack the city lord. It must be that the city lord did something shameful behind his back, which led to his tragic end."

"General Ming has already shown us respect by not attacking the rest of our family. Do you really want to make such a fuss that General Ming has to execute our entire family as well?"

Everyone was talking at once, and the lady felt as if there were ten thousand bees buzzing in her ears.

Her eyes grew redder and redder, and she was shaking with anger.

He suddenly raised his head and looked at the group of people around him. His eyes were so fierce that they made people feel scared.

You know, she was a woman who had walked side by side with the city lord for a period of time.

The city lord back then had many dirty things that he couldn't do, so she did them all herself.

She and the city lord have a parallel line of interests.

Now these relatives are talking without any hesitation, saying that the city lord did disgusting things behind her back. Aren’t they just pointing fingers at her?

She smiled coldly and looked at the group of people with disdain.

"You idiots, all of you are saying nice things just to curry favor with Mingchuan. When you were sharing the benefits together, why didn't you say it was us who did something disgusting?"

"Why are you jumping out now and being a fence-sitter?"

"If you don't want to die so badly, then go and make a scene in front of Mingchuan instead of gossiping in front of me!"

Everyone found it unreasonable to see the lady in such a devastated state.

Their faces were filled with mockery as they sarcastically said, "Madam, you'd better think it through. If we go find General Ming, we'll betray you. Are you sure you want to dig your own grave and end your own life?"

The city lord's wife's face turned pale after hearing this.

She suddenly calmed down, and was so angry that her whole body couldn't help shaking.

Those resentful eyes made it seem as if they wanted to tear all these guys in front of them into pieces and eat them!

The others were not afraid at all and looked at her with cold eyes.

"We are too lazy to continue talking to you, bitch. Think whatever you want."

After saying this, everyone turned around and left.

The lobby, which was originally quite bustling, suddenly became quiet.

Everyone left one after another, even the servants who usually kowtowed to the city lord's wife, now all turned away with disgust on their faces.

Watching this group of people walk away without mercy, he was the only one left in the lobby with the cold body lying on the ground.

The city lord's wife was so angry that her limbs turned cold and her face changed color.

"Damn it... you all deserve to die... you are all a bunch of damn guys, all deserve to die!!!"

"You don't remember the kindness I've shown you, and you're just eager to distance yourself from me... You guys won't have a good ending, absolutely not... absolutely not!"

"You will go to hell with me!!!"

The city lord's wife roared at the top of her lungs, but no one stopped.

They just walked faster.

The hum of cars outside the house gradually faded away, and the city lord's wife felt even colder in her heart.

Her face looked grim, and she looked like a frost-bitten eggplant, unable to muster up the will to fight. She could only lazily collapse on the ground, crawling in front of the corpse.

The coldness of the ground could not reach the depths of her heart.

She felt her body trembling, unable to tell if it was due to the cold or something else...

Time passed by minute by minute, and everything around was as quiet as a ghost.

Just as the city lord's wife got up from the ground and was about to rest, she was suddenly startled by the person in front of her.

"what!"

She screamed and stepped back quickly in fear.

When I looked closely, I realized that the person standing in front of me was Guo Hang!

It was the city lord’s secretary who had always been with the city lord!

When the city lord's wife saw this, a smile immediately appeared on her face.

She quickly got up from the ground and hurriedly approached Guo Hang.

"Guo Hang, Guo Hang, are you here to help you guys defend your rights? Are you here to help him???"

"Hurry... hurry... we still have room to maneuver. Now that the city lord is dead, there's nothing we can do. Let's quickly contact the king and tell him everything about the situation here..."

"Tell him how crazy and outrageous Mingchuan is!"

"We must make the king severely punish Mingchuan. This kind of scum must not be allowed to stay!"

As the city lord's wife spoke, she was about to grab Guo Hang.

Guo Hang took a step back, his face cold.

Seeing the frost on his face, the city lord's wife's heart suddenly sank to the bottom of the valley.

She looked at Guo Hang in disbelief, then looked at her free hand.

"You...what do you mean?"

Guo Hang's face was full of disdain as he looked up and down at the city lord's wife.

"Madam, don't you see the current situation clearly? The city lord is dead, and your backers are gone. Isn't it time for you to plead guilty and face punishment?"

After Guo Hang said this, the lady could see clearly that there were several people in black uniforms following him!

The expressions of these men in black uniforms were extremely ugly, and it was like a pair of big hands tightly grasping the lady's heart.

The lady's pupils froze, her eyes widened, but a bitter and impossibly resigned smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"Guo Hang... you, what nonsense are you talking about? What do you mean by pleading guilty? I... I don't understand what you're saying."
