Sui and Tang Dynasties: Killing Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty to sacrifice to heaven at the beginni

Chapter 455 The decision of the powerful family! ! !
Ma Shumou's words were like a blow to Gu Zong's heart.At this moment, he hesitated a little.

Originally, Gu Zong came here today with the intention of beheading Uncle Ma on the spot, but after hearing Uncle Ma's words today, Gu Zong hesitated.

Gu Zong wondered if Li Mu was using Uncle Ma to fish.If Li Mu really intervened in it, then once he really killed Ma Shumou, Li Mu could use the excuse of killing the court officials without authorization to kill him, the Gu family.

Originally, in Gu's view, Li Mu should be a neutral faction, and even while being a neutral faction, he also slightly favored their Jiangzuo gentry.

However, it is now difficult for Gu Zong to distinguish Li Mu's position.

"Go, call our secret sentry!" Gu Zong ordered to his subordinates.

Not long after, the person who was in charge of tracking last night was brought in front of Gu Zong. Although he felt that there was no need for Ma Shumou to lie about this kind of thing, he still asked for proof that Li Mu had not been here last night.

"Did you see the general enter the camp last night?" Gu Zong asked his secret sentry.

"No?" Anshao shook his head.

Upon hearing this, Gu Zong was completely confused. Ma Shumou said that Li Mu had been there, but his secret whistle said no.

If the two are completely different, Gu Zong will naturally believe in his secret whistle.However, what Gu Zong couldn't understand was why Ma Shumou would lie to himself.

There is absolutely no need to lie about this kind of thing, because you can tell when you ask yourself.

However, before Gu Zong could speak, Ma Shumou immediately shouted: "Impossible, Li Mu came in yesterday, all three thousand soldiers in my camp can testify!"

"Patriarch, although I didn't see the general enter the camp. However, we sentries were all knocked out for a while last night."

"If the general really came, it must be his people who knocked us out!" Anshao replied.

After hearing this explanation, Ma Shumou breathed a sigh of relief.Although these secret whistles did not see Li Mu enter the Meishan camp with their own eyes, since they were knocked out, this can also prove that Li Mu actually came.

When Li Mu entered the Meishan Camp, the [-] soldiers in the Meishan Camp knew about it, and these people also knew that it was Li Mu who ordered the killing of more than [-] members of the Mei family.

It is impossible to completely cover up this kind of thing.Of course, Li Mu didn't even want to completely cover it up.

Through this incident, it is enough to intensify the relationship between the Jiangzuo gentry and the powerful family.

"It seems that Li Mu really came here, this matter is not easy!" Gu Zong thought with some embarrassment.

If Li Mu hadn't intervened, Gu Zong would have planned to murder Uncle Ma on the spot today.But now, Gu Zong didn't dare.

Ma Shumou and Gu Zong looked at each other in dismay. At this moment, they were actually brothers in difficulty, and neither of them had figured out Li Mu's routine.

Competing with others is at least traceable, but unlike Li Mu's contest, Li Mu's moves are unconstrained.

"Give me Mei's mouth!" Gu Zong said in a deep voice.

Gu Zong thought about it for three times, and felt that Ma Shumou could not be seriously killed.However, Gu's statement cannot be kept.

Gu Zong wanted to ask for Mei's confession, so let's not ask for Mei's confession at this time, as long as he doesn't want Uncle Ma's life, he can give him anything.

"Go quickly, give the mouth to Patriarch Gu and fetch it!" Ma Shumou hurriedly ordered.

At this time, for Ma Shumou, it was a dog's life and money.Save your life first, and talk about the rest later.

After a while, Ma Shumou's subordinates took the statement.

"Patriarch Gu, the confession is here!" Ma Shumou said, and handed the confession to Gu Zong.

"Let the county magistrate of Meixian come here!" Gu Zong ordered.

That day, when Ma Shumou went to arrest the Mei family, the county magistrate of Meixian had seen these confessions.

Gu Zong was very careful in doing things. In order to prevent Uncle Ma from keeping a secret, he called the magistrate of Mei County to verify it.

"Come on, see if there is something missing in these mouths, whether it is the ones you saw that day!" Gu Zong ordered.

The county magistrate of Meixian took the statement and examined it carefully.After some inspection, it was determined that there was nothing missing in it.

"My lord, everything is there, there is nothing missing!" Meixian magistrate replied.

"Crack!"

"boom!"

Gu Zong threw all the confession into the fire with his backhand, and in an instant, the raging flames burned the confession to ashes.

"These days, Master Ma will rest in the Meishan camp for a few days. If there is anything missing in the camp, tell my people, and he will prepare it for you!"

"It's better not to go out of the camp without authorization, otherwise it will be easy to accidentally injure!" Gu Zong said coldly.

Although this was said politely, Gu Zong actually put Uncle Ma under house arrest.

Things have developed to such an extent that many things are beyond Gu Zong's ability to decide.What happened here, he needs to discuss with the entire Jiangzuo gentry and people with five surnames and Qiwang, and only after discussing can he decide on the next step.

As for why Ma Shumou was placed under house arrest, it was actually to prevent Ma Shumou from delivering the latest news to the Guanlongmen Clan.

In this way, they have the latest information, but the Guanlongmen Clan does not. In this way, they can firmly gain the upper hand in the next round of competition.

It is unknown how the Jiangzuo Clan and the Five Surnames and Qiwang negotiated, but the fire that started in Mei County soon spread to Daxing City.

The Guanlongmen faction believed that the [-] or so members of the Mei family were still in the hands of Ma Shumou because they had received information before the killing of more than [-] members of the Mei family.Therefore, the Guanlongmen faction took the lead in firing at the Jiangzuo gentry.

The Jiangzuo gentry died and were beaten up by the Guanlongmen Clan. They were immediately enraged, so they took advantage of their intelligence and started to fight back against the Guanlongmen Clan.

The Jiangzuo gentry and the five surnames and Qiwang joined forces to deal with the Guanlongmen Clan, and the situation of the Guanlongmen Clan was a bit dangerous.However, just when the Guanlongmen faction thought they could rely on the Mei family's confession in the hands of Mei and Ma Shumou, they could give Gu a hat of resisting the law.

Uncle Ma tried his best to get the latest news. More than [-] members of the Mei family were killed by Li Mu, and Gu Zong burned the confessions.

As soon as this news came out, the Guanlong clan clan panicked.The main point of their criticism of the Jiangzuo gentry now is that they first supported the construction of the canal, and then the Mei clan obstructed the construction of the canal.This is teasing the imperial power and resisting the law.

But it never occurred to me that now the witnesses have been killed and the physical evidence is gone.

With all the witnesses and physical evidence gone, the momentum of the Guanlongmen Clan suddenly weakened.However, the Jiangzuo gentry and Qiwang of the five surnames would not give up so easily and started chasing and beating Guanlongmen.

For a while, in the official circles of Daxing City, the Beijing officials belonging to the three camps had already broken their heads.Many old stories of corruption and perverting the law in the opponent's camp have also been exposed. It can be expected that many people will lose their positions in the future!
