Start with detective Li Yuanfang

Chapter 290 I killed him a cat, and he killed more than a dozen people in my house?
bow mansion.

Hearing the sound of beating drums coming from outside, Gong Siming slowly opened his eyes.

A new day begins.

For Luoyang, this may just be an ordinary day.

Even if the crown prince and officials will visit Luoyang tomorrow, the common people are more concerned about the fluctuation of the market price of grain and rice. If they have relatives in Guanzhong, they are worried about their situation.

As for welcoming the prince, that is something that Luoyang officials should worry about.

Under normal circumstances, Gong Siming was also one of them and should have started working, but at this time, he didn't even have the strength to stand up.

In just one day, the high-spirited Gong's helmsman seemed to have aged several years, his face was gray, his eyes were scattered, and the white hair on his head was much clearer.

He didn't suffer much physically, but the mental blow was unparalleled.

So much so that when Gong Siye rushed into the house and walked up to him, he paused for a long time before sighing: "What are you doing here again?"

Gong Siye's brows were full of gloom: "Second brother, please come forward and convince the clansmen to take me as the leader!"

Gong Siming was stunned: "In just one day, you can't control the situation?"

These words were more ironic than any scolding, and Gong Siye immediately flew into a rage: "Isn't it Goro, that dude who actually gave orders at the pier, messed up the ship, and ruined my plan! Is he from my Gong family?"

Gong Siming was slightly stunned again, but his spirit obviously improved: "Fifth Brother stopped you from burning Beishi Wharf, this is the son of my Gong family!"

Gong Siye sneered: "Sure enough, I don't believe that the dandy who has achieved nothing can have such means. You have been guarding against me, right? The clansmen in the family also disobeyed my orders. Second brother, you are scheming It’s really deep, secretly deliberately hitting my prestige!”

"I was on guard against you? If I had been on guard against my younger brother early on, would I still be in this situation?"

Gong Siming smiled wryly: "Third son, third son, you still don't understand? It's not that I don't trust you and intentionally hit your prestige, but your prestige is not as high as you think!"

"My son of a big family, you must be shrewd, but you must not be too shrewd. You have no sincerity in treating your clan relatives. It's fine in the past, but now you still expect to respond to everything?"

"Fifth Brother has indeed never done anything serious, but he is much better than you at critical moments without losing his integrity!"

Gong Siye was extremely irritable when he heard this, and his face became grim: "The matter has come to this point, and you are still teaching me? Don't mention these useless big details, our Gong family has no turning back!"

Gong Siming shook his head: "No, if you burn the Beishi Wharf, then my Gong family will have no way to turn back. Now that the fifth younger brother is here, it will not be the worst situation. This time, he saved my whole clan. It's a pity that the Gong family's management in Luoyang is about to disappear..."

He was very fortunate at first, and then turned into uncontrollable pain: "My Gong family has gone from Bianzhou to Luoyang, and how much effort has been spent to have today's foundation. "

Gong Siye waved his hand and said: "What are you talking about, I haven't lost yet. The water transportation belongs to my Gong family, and no one can take it away! Let me tell you, even if the people in the clan don't listen to orders, I still have a lot of people. How about you Do you remember how many foreign houses I have?"

Gong Siming thought for a while, then frowned and said, "Those houses that Jiangnan Chamber of Commerce donated to you?"

Gong Siye proudly said: "That's right, I have kept [-] health slaves in those houses. After years of training and management, they have begun to take shape. Although they are not very elite, they are enough to be used as dead soldiers!"

Gong Siming's expression changed: "You want to set fire directly? Originally, the pier caught fire, but it could be dismissed as accidental ignition. Now you just send thieves to set fire, how will it end? Are you crazy?"

Gong Siye said: "Don't worry, it has nothing to do with my Gong family. The place is provided by people from the south of the Yangtze River, who are the subjugated slaves of Goguryeo and Turks."

"These subjugated slaves already hated the Great Tang. It's perfectly normal for them to plot evil and set fire to retaliate. I also gave some crossbows that only a hundred riders can have to confuse the public."

"When they succeed in arson, I will lead the crowd to rush out and kill them. Not only is it a great achievement, but after the event, rebuilding the pier and restoring water transportation will require my family to come forward!"

"This game is a success, the prince will arrive in Luoyang tomorrow, does he dare to attack my Gong family at this time? Not only will there be a shortage of food in the pass, but Luoyang will also be in chaos!"

"When all these things are over, why can't there be any room for recovery?"

Gong Siming felt chills in his heart when he heard this, and tried to persuade him: "Third brother, I beg you, don't go your own way anymore! You have planned so well, but how can everything go smoothly in the world? If you really burn the boat, then There is no way out, our big clan is acting, we must not put all our eggs in one basket!"

Gong Siye was angry: "After all, you still don't believe that I can succeed!"

"But now I'm going to do it. If you don't come forward and let the clansmen follow me, the wharf will burn out, and even the shops in Beishi will be affected!"

"I used kerosene. If the fifth brother was still there, he might be burned to death. Second brother, you have to think about it!"

Hearing the threatening words, Gong Siming's chest heaved violently, and he almost couldn't catch his breath: "You! You're just... crazy!"

Gong Siye pulled him up: "Make up your mind, will you show up or not?"

Gong Siming glared at the younger brother who was usually his right-hand man, and said in a trembling voice after a while: "I will step forward and let the clansmen follow you to put out the fire!"

"Good! You finally figured it out!"

Gong Siye breathed a sigh of relief, and said decisively: "Second brother, look at those high-ranking noble families, which of the noble families did not rise with bloodshed and bones? If I succeed, the Gong family may be a blessing in disguise this time. It’s for this family, but in a different way!”

Gong Siming's eyes were empty, and he murmured: "The disaster of the dead... the disaster of the dead..."

The two brothers came out of the back hall, and Gong Siye was about to summon the whole clan, when he saw his confidant clansman rushing over: "Sanlang, something is wrong! Dead! All dead!"

Gong Siye narrowed his eyes, and was about to change his color, but thought that his second brother was nearby, and wanted him to see his composure without changing his expression, so he asked coldly: "What's going on?" Speak slowly, why panic!"

The confidants looked at the embarrassed Gong Siming in awe, leaned over and said in a low voice: "Sanlang, those foreign slaves have all been killed. I just went to the house in Fuchengfang, and as soon as I entered, I found corpses all over the place. Just as I was about to leave, I heard voices from bad people outside, but I managed to hide in time, hiding in the cellar, and found that they carried away the kerosene first, and then cleaned up the corpses, obviously they got an order!"

Foreign slaves are the name for the dead. That group of people is indeed mainly composed of Goguryeo survivors, followed by Turkic people, plus a small number of Kunlun slaves. Even if they are discovered, they can use their preference for slavery as an excuse.

Hearing this, Gong Siming's expression changed irresistibly: "Fuchengfang has been exposed?"

There was fear in the voice of the confidants: "It's not just the mansion in Fuchengfang. I saw that the situation was not good, so I went to the mansions in Renfengfang and Chunfengfang, and found that there were government servants there, and there were corpses inside. lift!"

Gong Siye's body swayed, his face was pale, but he said with gritted teeth: "Impossible, it's fine if a house is discovered, how could they all be exposed overnight? You go to investigate again! You must find out what happened. What happened, who did it!"

The confidant clansmen flinched and cowered until they were roared by him, then they turned and left unwillingly.

Gong Siming, who was listening, his eyes regained hope, and he lowered his head and pondered.

The confidants came back quickly, and after more than half an hour, he returned to the mansion: "Sanlang, I finally found some living people. I dare not bring them back, but I also asked about the situation."

Gong Siming tremblingly said: "Did Zheng Rentong lead the elite soldiers of Zhechong Mansion to attack?"

The confidant said: "No, there is only one person. It sounds like Li Yuanfang, the inner guard. He slaughtered the house. Those people dare not approach. They only heard about burning the boat, and it seems that they want to avenge the cat."

Gong Siye was stunned first: "What cat?"

Then I came to my senses, I slaughtered my fifth brother’s precious piece of grass yesterday, and screamed in disbelief: “I killed his cat, and he killed more than a dozen people in my house? No, that’s not him s cat!"

After hearing this, Gong Siming relaxed completely, and suddenly said: "You trash!"

Gong Siye suddenly turned around: "What did you say!"

Gong Siming straightened his back, and said sharply: "You can't even control the clan. You turned a group of subjugated slaves into dead men, and were easily slaughtered. You still want to succeed? What can you accomplish? You are a waste!"

Gong Siye's facial features were distorted, and he kicked his brother to the ground: "Shut up! Shut up!!"

Gong Siming did not resist, and coldly scolded: "You trash who can only live in the nest, if you don't recognize yourself again, and fall into the hands of Li Yuanfang and Zheng Rentong, your end will be worse than death. The only chance now is to escape. , escape as far as possible, don't come back!"

The more Gong Siye listened, the more frightened and frightened he became, he didn't even know when the confidant clansman quietly retreated, and suddenly roared: "Come out! Come out!"

Gong Siming's face darkened slightly, thinking of the man in black who killed people like a chicken yesterday.

And following Gong Siye's hoarse call, the man in black walked into the house, holding a knife in his hand, and the knife was also covered with blood.

Gong Siye was overjoyed when he saw this majestic power, "You killed Li Yuanfang?"

The man in black was startled, nodded his head and said: "I really want to meet Li Yuanfang for a while, my brother has suffered from this person, I want to get this place back!"

Gong Siye said anxiously: "Go now, Li Yuanfang killed my foreign slave, you go and kill him!"

The man in black said coldly: "Are you giving orders to me?"

Gong Siye was forced by the terrifying murderous aura, his face turned pale, but he raised his neck and threatened: "Don't forget, if I die, you will not feel better!"

The man in black was silent for a while, and just when Gong Siye thought he gave in, he suddenly chuckled: "Are you curious whose blood is on my knife?"

Gong Siye realized something, and his pupils shrank suddenly.

"When you asked me to kill Gong Taoguang, you said you would spread our secret to the streets and alleys of Luoyang. I did this last night..."

After the voice fell, the man in black stretched out his hand and threw out more than a dozen blood-soaked letters: "Look! These are all prepared by you!"

Gong Siye's face turned pale, and he knelt down slowly on the ground. He didn't even have the strength to open the letter, and an extremely humiliating voice came from his ear:
"Your brother is right, you are worthy of ordering me just because you are a piece of trash?"
