Chapter 292 The eldest brother is like a father
Outside Gongfu, elite soldiers surrounded every corner.

In the Gong mansion, Gong Siye's self-confidence had just been ravaged and ruthlessly trampled by his elder brother and the man in black in turn.

"It's not good! It's not good! Inspector Zheng personally led the crowd to seal the perimeter of the mansion!"

And soon, the servant's terrified report made all three of them change color.

Not to mention the Gong brothers, even the man in black pressed down on the brim of his hat, revealing a trace of nervousness.

Gong Siye felt unbelievable: "In broad daylight, why does that old man surround my mansion? He is the governor of Luozhou, and he is not left behind in Luoyang. Who gave him the power?"

"When you poisoned Zheng Rentong's only son, you should have thought of such a counterattack!"

Gong Siming closed his eyes, but he was the least surprised.

He thought about it, then turned to look at the man in black: "Your Excellency, please take my third brother away, there is a secret passage in my backyard!"

The man in black swung his blade horizontally: "I want to leave, why do I need a secret way?"

Gong Siming said in a deep voice: "Your Excellency's martial arts are high and strong, but two fists are no match for four hands. Facing elite soldiers and strong bows and crossbows, it is inevitable that you will lose. This secret road leads to the Luohe River. Leave directly by boat to ensure safety."

The man in black was silent for a while, and said with a sneer: "Aren't you afraid that I will use the secret passage in your house to leave, and then kill this waste of ambition and talent?"

Gong Siming sighed: "Of course I'm afraid, but if he leaves with you, at least there is still a glimmer of life left, if he stays, he will definitely die..."

He bowed down slowly: "I hope that Your Excellency will take advantage of the righteousness this time to save my brother's life, escape from Luoyang, leave far away, and never come back again!"

The man in black stared at him with fluctuations in his eyes, nodded and said, "Okay! I will save his life!"

But at this moment, Gong Siye who was beside him struggled to get up, and hissed: "I don't want you to pity me, winner or loser, it's just a death, what's the big deal!"

"Bang!!"

As soon as the voice fell, there was a loud noise from the backyard, followed by battles and screams, and the familiar roar came faintly: "Put down the bow and arrow, don't resist! Don't resist!"

Gong Siming heard the voice of his fifth younger brother Gong Siguang, he was not surprised but delighted.

If it was Zheng Rentong who charged in, then the Gong Mansion would be in for a catastrophe.

Swords and arrows have no eyes, and bloodbath with hatred, anyone may be killed.

But now that Gong Siguang is here, at least to a certain extent, his family can be kept safe.

Of course, this would also cause the government soldiers to drive straight in without encountering much decent resistance. He immediately ran up: "Follow me quickly!"

The man in black followed behind him without saying a word, Gong Siye was startled, seeing that the two of them were about to disappear, he subconsciously chased after him.

Arriving in front of the rockery behind the middle hall, after Gong Siming operated, the rockery slowly opened a secret passage entrance: "Go!"

Looking at the only way out, Gong Siye didn't say it was just death, and said in a low voice: "Second brother, the outside is surrounded now, you let me go, what do you do?"

Gong Siming's eyes darkened for a moment, but his face was still calm: "My family will clear it up and down. The Guanzhong family has received so many benefits over the years, and they will also say a few words for me. I should be able to save my life and sentence me to exile." crime……"

Gong Siye's eyes turned red: "Second brother...I...I shouldn't have treated you like that!"

Gong Siming said in a deep voice: "The eldest brother is like a father, third brother, you should listen to my advice at the end."

"In the past, you only had little wisdom but no great wisdom, and you wanted something big, which is why you ended up in this situation. I hope that after this incident, you can calm down your temper, leave more room for retreat in everything, and stop going your own way..."

"Go, as long as people are alive, there is hope!"

The man in black had already bent down and got in. Gong Siye hesitated for a moment, then heaved a long sigh and followed in.

Gong Siming watched the rockery close up again, and quickly walked back to the hall.

The noisy sound continued to approach, he searched for a moment, took out a bag of powder, and poured it into the jug.

Looking at the glass of wine, Gong Siming's hands trembled, showing fear, and then he spread out the paper and began to write the list.

Until the sound of footsteps approaching outside, he finally drank the wine with his head raised.

Soon, Gong Siguang rushed in, seeing him sitting upright, he was immediately overjoyed: "Second brother, it's great that you're fine!"

Gong Siming nodded and said happily, "Fifth brother, thanks to you this time."

Gong Siguang chuckled and patted his head: "I thought the second brother would scold me for helping outsiders..."

Gong Siming immediately shook his head: "To keep the water transportation, is it to help outsiders? Only by maintaining the overall situation can the family survive. You have no small cleverness, but you have great wisdom."

Gong Siguang muttered: "Then...then..."

Gong Siming said directly: "You want to ask about the whereabouts of your third brother?"

Gong Siguang fell silent, and sighed after a while: "This time it was too much trouble. I just found out that he allowed the Pangzhi people to occupy the fields of Beiya Baiqi. The evidence is conclusive. Now Li Jiyi and Zheng Shishi We must catch him...the only thing we can do is to deal with it afterwards and try our best to save his life!"

"No wonder Zheng Rentong dared to lead troops to surround my mansion directly. I thought he would rather not be the governor in order to avenge his only son, but I didn't expect that there was even evidence!"

After Gong Siming was stunned, he was overjoyed: "Fortunately, the third brother didn't do the stupid thing of burning the pier. I know that his ideas are only for the best, and they are not realistic at all..."

Gong Siguang hurriedly said: "Second brother, stop commenting on the third brother's affairs, find him first!"

"I can't find it, I let him go..."

Gong Siming stopped his younger brother who wanted to get up after his face changed suddenly: "Don't chase! Listen to me first, I don't have much time, I just took the poison..."

Gong Siguang was stunned suddenly, then rushed over and slapped him down.

Gong Siming was knocked down to the ground by him, and he almost didn't shut up directly: "Ahem, cough, cough! What are you doing?"

"Induce vomiting! That's how Li Jiyi saved Zheng Wenming... Come here! Come here!"

Gong Siguang shouted to the outside, and then said sadly: "Second brother! Why did you take poison? Why did my Gong clan become like this in just a few days?"

Gong Siming continued intermittently: "Your third brother is greedy for profit, and the side branch invaded the military field, which is a capital crime... But I think the thief behind him has bigger intentions, if he asks for some bigger crimes... These things can't be hidden , uncovering it now, is better than my Gong family copying and beheading all the families in the future..."

Gong Siguang wept and said: "Then these are the things that the third brother did, why did the second brother take poison again?"

Gong Siming finally recovered his breath, touched his face, and said with a light smile: "Brother died early, I am the elder brother, and the elder brother is like a father. If I don't take care of you, who can?"

When Gong Siguang thought of his dandyish mischief, this man tolerated him many times, and tears poured out even more wildly.

And Gong Siming's eyes turned to the members of the Gong clan who rushed in one after another, sat up again, and said seriously: "I'm not blindly protecting Saburo, I'm also thinking about you."

"The benefits of water transportation are huge, and countless people are staring at them. If it weren't for my Gong family's firm support for the saints in the early years and the construction of the Eastern Capital, there would be no such foundation."

"Now that the saint's dragon body is sick, even if the saint is healthy, such things will never be tolerated. The old grace of our family has disappeared."

"Such a big incident happened in the family, and I sacrificed my life to make amends, and the family can still save a little bit. If I live brazenly, it will be difficult for the Gong family to return to Bianzhou. If they want to snare me for crimes, I will not be able to save my life in the end... It is better to give up now. Let's fight for a way for the family!"

All members of the Gong clan who rushed into the hall showed grief, but they saw Gong Siming pointing to the list that had just been written, and ordered the steward: "Now the one who hates my Gong clan the most is Governor Zheng. You hand over this list to me. he."

"The people above are all people with bad intentions. When I am here, I can still suppress one or two things. If I am not here, it will be a disaster!"

"Give it to Inspector Zheng, let him relieve... um... relieve his hatred..."

Speaking of this, Gong Siming's stomach was filled with severe pain, and he couldn't help shivering due to the pain.

But his tone was maintained abruptly, but the speed of speech began to speed up: "Wulang, when you hand over the water transport, you must remember one thing. On the premise of ensuring that the water transport is not chaotic, delay it appropriately and wait for our family as much as possible." The industry withdrew to Bianzhou."

"Our family's foundation is not stable, and we have accumulated a lot of wealth over the years. It will definitely be difficult to keep all of it, but we must not let others snatch it!"

"Otherwise, the back of my Gong family will be broken. At that time, anyone can jump up and bite us. Even if we return to Bianzhou, it will be difficult to survive."

Having said this, blood gushed from the corner of Gong Siming's mouth, and his eyes turned black: "Li Yuanfang is willing to let you come, which means that he is not someone who crosses rivers and demolishes bridges..."

"You protect the Water Transport Wharf, and he lets you protect the Gong family. It's really rare to be able to do this..."

"If you can follow him, follow him. If the situation is not right, return to Bianzhou in time..."

"Don't believe other people's promises, especially the high-ranking nobles are unreliable. Once they fall into their trap, my Gong family will be swallowed to the bone..."

"I won't say any more, just follow your temperament, don't imitate me everywhere, if you can't learn it, there is no need..."

Gong Siguang burst into tears, and nodded desperately: "Second brother, I've already remembered it, don't say any more, Dr. Chen will be here soon, just persevere!!"

Gong Siming smiled at him, and at the moment before he lost his vision, he stretched out his hand tremblingly, patted his clothes, and carefully wiped off the footprints kicked on him two days ago: "The house... the house will be handed over to... here you go..."

Finally, he closed his tired eyes, fell into Gong Siguang's arms, and stopped breathing.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!"

Hearing the mournful cry from inside, Zheng Rentong who was outside also saluted silently.

Then after turning around, there was a stern look: "Find out the thief leader Gong Siye, no matter whether he lives or dies!!"

……

at the same time.

The man in black and Gong Siye, who were passing through the secret passage, had already boarded the boat.

Luoyang's waterways extend in all directions, which makes it convenient for these small boats to come and go, but there is one disadvantage, that is, it is impossible to dig a long tunnel.

Therefore, the two only stayed away from Gong Mansion, but failed to leave Guangdaofang immediately.

While Gong Siye was in a trance, still in a daze, the man in black suddenly raised his head: "Eagle?"

After finishing the words, the man in black touched from behind and took out an exquisite bow, with arrows on the bowstring.

Will fill the bow, shoot the Sirius, and fly through the sky with one arrow.

At the critical moment, the eagle's flight changed direction inconceivably, narrowly dodging the arrow.

It also passed by the air wave that slanted upwards and left a clear trajectory.

The eagle soared into the sky, its cry revealed panic, but it was still hovering in the sky.

If it weren't for the intensive training these few days, it would really have hated this arrow.

The man in black was very angry: "Damn it, how can a mere eagle avoid my arrows?"

Gong Siye woke up like a dream, thinking of the situation he had deliberately learned in the past few days, he exclaimed: "That's Li Yuanfang's eagle! No, he's going to chase it!"

The man in black turned his head and said coldly, "It's not that I want to chase after him, but I've already caught up!"

Gong Siye followed his gaze, and saw a handsome man on the shore, riding a mighty horse with a fluffy mane, staring at him coldly.
