Jinyiwei's psychic case: the opening is Lingbo Weibu

Chapter 1232

Xu Shan's tough stance and his planned backup plan caused widespread anxiety among the guests and officials who were there to support the Cui family.

Especially the heads of the powerful families who had just formed an alliance with Old Master Cui in the inner hall. Their hearts were filled with unease!

Judging from Xu Shan's attitude, he really has no intention of letting the Cui family of Qinghe off the hook today.

The Northern Liang army and the Central Plains elite troops besieged the city, while the Imperial Guards moved in to clear the area. They blew up the secret passages, cutting off any possibility of the Cui family's escape…

These scenes, upon closer examination, are reminiscent of the methods the Cui family used against the Imperial Guards of Wucheng.

It is widely rumored that Duke Xu is fiercely protective of his own people and is extremely loyal to them!

However, it is also widely rumored that Xu Rentu, who is ruthless and decisive, is also vengeful!

Your Cui family has stationed troops in three cities to besiege the city, and secretly ordered the Iron Blood Hall to go to Wucheng to mobilize the emperor's personal troops.

Then I, Xu Shan, will use two regular armies to block all escape routes for the Cui family of Qinghe, and I will personally come here to repay your debt with a tooth and a blood!

When the Cui family of Qinghe made their move, I, Xu Shan, blocked it.

Today I'm going to strike hard, and I don't know if you'll survive!

"Lord Xu, please!"

Just as the scene fell silent, the sounds of the Imperial Guards rang out outside the ancestral home of the Cui family in Qinghe.

The people standing in the courtyard subconsciously tiptoed to look out.

To everyone's surprise, Xu Shan, who had simply moved a chair over, was sitting outside the main gate, accompanied by several Imperial Guards, leaning on his sword!

Even a fool could see Xu Shan's attitude—he had no intention of letting things slide and was just going through the motions.

I'm going to make those boasts come true today!

In that instant, the guests inside the ancestral home felt even more flustered.

At this moment, after their superiors took their positions, a Jinyiwei guard with an extremely aggressive attitude cautiously inquired, "Sir, the entire Qinghe is now under our control, so we shouldn't be so polite to them."

"Let's just wipe them out."

"Damn it, you dare to bare your teeth at me? Aren't you going to welcome us here?"

"Did we give them face?"

Faced with the grumbling of the Imperial Guard, Xu Shan smiled calmly and replied, "Your Majesty, what is the purpose of sending us to the north?"

"Ah? Drive out the Tartars and barbarians, and stabilize the north."

"Is that so! Do you know that the guests and heads of the Cui family who came to congratulate the Cui family today control most of the economic lifeline of the North?"

"If we kill them all, who will pay the taxes for the imperial court?"

Who will provide logistical support to Beiliang?

"After the collapse of the Cui family of Qinghe, who will clean up this mess for us?"

After Xu Shan finished speaking with a smile, the Imperial Guard standing beside him suddenly realized and said, "Sir, are you trying to use this opportunity to make an example of someone and intimidate others?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Shan smiled and nodded, saying, "Killing people is easy."

"But the key is how to stabilize the situation and unite the people of the North after the killings are over!"

After Xu Shan finished speaking, the Imperial Guard next to him cautiously asked, "What if these people are stubborn and determined to stand on the same side as the Cui family of Qinghe?"

"Haha."

After he finished speaking, Xu Shan suddenly burst into laughter: "If a man doesn't look out for himself, he'll be punished by heaven and earth!"

Do you believe it?

"Most of the guests and heads of families here are more eager for the downfall of the Cui family of Qinghe than we are."

"what?"

The two Imperial Guards, bewildered but impressed, looked at their master in surprise.

Meeting their inquisitive gazes, Xu Shan added meaningfully, "When a whale falls, all things come to life!"

"The Cui family of Qinghe has monopolized certain industries in the north for too long."

“Previously, they dared not speak out against their anger and could only submit to their grievances.”

"Now there is such an opportunity, and it is right in front of them..."

"Whether it's for survival or for the future of the family."

"They all dared not get involved."

"wait!"

"This stage has been set up, and today it is destined to have a protagonist, and that is our Embroidered Uniform Guard."

As Xu Shan succinctly analyzed the pros and cons, the Cui family members' deliberately loud voices echoed from inside the ancestral home.

"Our Cui family has been rooted in Qinghe for generations."

"It had a profound impact in the north and even in the Ming Dynasty."

"Today we'll see if the Embroidered Uniform Guard dares to defy the world and touch a single hair on the head of the Cui family."

After he finished speaking, Yuan Qingshan also took the initiative to say, "Grandpa, the time has come. We can begin!"

"it is good!"

Knowing that it was crucial to stabilize the situation at this critical moment, Old Master Cui nodded emphatically.

As long as these family heads and guests remain on the same side as the Cui family.

Even for the sake of stability in the north, the imperial court would not allow the Embroidered Uniform Guard to act recklessly.

"Everyone, get to your positions."

"If we unite as one, will the imperial court still allow the Embroidered Uniform Guard to run rampant in the north?"

After saying that, Old Master Cui led his men inside.

But this time...

None of the family heads who had been following behind the Cui family members moved an inch.

Even the guests who had come for the banquet stood up and instinctively moved towards the door.

"Ok?"

Upon seeing their actions, Old Master Cui, who had stopped, immediately turned around and asked, "Gentlemen, what are you all doing standing there?"

After all, the people of the North had accumulated prestige for generations.

When the imposing Old Master Cui finished speaking, the guests who were about to leave instinctively stopped in their tracks.

The family heads and officials standing there exchanged glances and remained silent.

But no one stepped forward from behind.

"Master Ma!"

"Today is a joyous day for the Cui and Ma families to tie the knot."

Are you just going to stand at the door?

When he said this, Grandpa Cui had already raised his voice.

Even his face showed an expression of anger.

Upon hearing his words, everyone's attention turned to Ma Ruteng.

"Grandpa Cui!"

"How about we find another auspicious time for the wedding?"

"after all……"

'boom. ’

Before Ma Ruteng could finish speaking, Yuan Qingshan, who was standing next to Old Master Cui, slammed his hand on the table in front of him and smashed it to pieces.

In an instant, the entire octagonal table was shattered.

The crowd was so frightened that they retreated in panic!

"Master Ma, are you going to betray the alliance that was just reached?"

"Can your Shanggu Ma family bear the consequences?"

Without lowering his voice, Old Master Cui immediately growled.

After he finished speaking, Yuan Qingshan and the Iron Blood Hall experts who were maintaining security at the scene all unleashed their inner strength.

A powerful aura surged forth, overwhelming Ma Ruteng and the dozen or so restless family heads and officials.

"what?"

Ma Ruteng and the others, who vaguely sensed these things, turned pale.

As they retreated, they repeatedly turned their heads to look towards the door.

One family head even shouted, "Duke Xu..."

"Our Zhang family of Nancheng is loyal to the imperial court and His Majesty!"

'boom! ’
