Marriage Beloved in Troubled Times: Madam Wants to Run Away from Marriage

Chapter 37
"Meng Shuheng, I never said I like you."

Gu Wan said coldly: "And I've said it more than once. The people I've been waiting for have always been Jiangcheng Fourth Young Master and Huo Family Xizhou. The so-called rumors about waiting for Meng Shuheng are just rumors. It doesn't matter if you don't want to be famous. I Gu Wan I still want it later, not for myself, but for the Huo family's face, if any of you don't want to stay in the sixteen southern provinces, you can try to discredit the Huo family's face!"

"Young commander!" Another adjutant ran over and whispered a few words in Huo Xizhou's ear.

The corner of Huo Xizhou's mouth suddenly turned into a cold and charming arc: "Okay! Adjutant Zhou, you did this matter in a timely manner. Go, get the things here."

"Yes!" Adjutant Zhou went.

He came back in less than 2 minutes, holding something in his hand - something wrapped in a black cotton coat, which looked round in shape.

Gu Wan's sense of smell has always been keen, and she immediately smelled the smell of blood. Her eyes fell on the thing in Adjutant Zhou's hand, and she had a guess in her heart—it couldn't be a human head, right?
Huo Xizhou said: "Master Meng, this young master has just returned to China. It doesn't matter if you think you are young and you don't know your temper. It's just that you want to use Meng Shuheng to disgust Ben Shao and Wan Wan over and over again. Don't "reciprocate" you, do you?"

"Adjutant Zhou, give the gift to Master Meng."

"Yes, young commander." Adjutant Zhou stepped forward and threw the things in his hand in front of Meng Dechun.

With a sound of "bang!", the thing hit the ground, the black cotton coat fell apart, and a human head that had just been chopped off rolled to Meng Dechun's feet, face up, and a pair of big eyes staring at Meng Dechun with hatred .

"Ah!" Zhao Xiaoe fainted from fright.

Meng Shuheng took several steps back again and again: "Ma... Ma Biao!"

Ma Biao is the deputy gang leader of the Hong'an gang and one of the leaders of Jiangcheng. The Meng family has been selling goods in a safe and stable way these years, obviously relying on the peace laid down by the Governor's Mansion, and secretly relying on Ma Biao's escort.

This level of relationship was obtained in exchange for the Meng family giving a cousin raised by the family to Ma Biao as the fourth concubine. This is why Meng Dechun always felt that he was more powerful than the Gu family. She fell in love with Gu Wan, but still wanted Gu Wan to marry Meng Shuheng again and again.

Meng Dechun felt that no matter how powerful the military governor's mansion is, he should be more or less afraid of going up the road. After all, these two roads have always been in a relatively balanced position. Therefore, as long as he has Ma Biao's relationship, he can After convincing Gu Wan to marry Meng Shuheng, the Huo family may not really trouble him, isn't he a daughter-in-law?

But he relied on Ma Biao's relationship, but Huo Xizhou had people behead Ma Biao and throw him at his feet?
Fear really seeped from Meng Dechun's eyes to his bones.

He underestimated Horsey State too much!

Huo Xizhou is clearly warning him by Chi Guoguo that if he doesn't restrain himself, Meng Dechun will be the next person to be beheaded.

"I heard that Master Meng has been in contact with Ma Biao recently, and he wants to buy some guns and ammunition from the black market. That is quite discerning. In such a troubled world, only someone who has a gun can be safe, but Master Meng does not want to do this. Do you believe the army can protect you?

Speaking of it, the relationship between the army and the merchants should be closer. After all, the army protects the merchants to do business, and the merchants contribute to make the army have enough ammunition and food. However, if Master Meng has a need, he can go to the Governor's Mansion to make a request. If necessary, the Governor's Mansion will consider strengthening patrols in the direction of Meng's house. If you go to Ma Biao in such a private manner, your behavior is somewhat suspicious. Could it be that you are dissatisfied with the Governor's Mansion and want to cause trouble?My father would rather kill the thieves who destroy the peace and stability of the sixteen provinces in the south than let them go! "

"No! No, no, no!" Meng Dechun's legs went limp in fright: "I didn't mean that, absolutely not. The Meng family has always been a businessman in their own right. I went to Ma Biao because of him...he and The Meng family are relatives, and the Meng family and Ma Biao have no close friendship, and the matter of buying guns and ammunition is also a non-existent thing!"

"It's fine if it's nothing," Huo Xizhou said, "However, the Governor's Mansion has found out that this Ma Biao is actually a spy sent by Zhao Youliang. Since the Meng family doesn't have a deep relationship with Ma Biao, it can be regarded as his own. Help the Meng family to solve a hidden danger, after all, if this kind of spies who are active on both sides really pull the Meng family into the water, the fate of the Meng family will only be worse than him!"

"Yes, yes, I... The Meng family thanked the young marshal for his great kindness."

"Well," Huo Xizhou nodded, and asked, "Did my family ever have a marriage contract with Meng Shuheng?"

"No!" Meng Dechun immediately replied: "Never, it's just a joke between my wife and Mrs. Gu, it's all rumors, rumors. Miss Gu Wan and the young commander are a beautiful couple, a match made in heaven. I wish Gu in advance Miss Wan and Young Marshal are happily married and have a precious son..."

Meng Dechun has always been a person who can be coaxed as soon as he can. He puts his wealth and life more important than anything else. Now he realizes that everything Huo Xizhou said is true—this young man really has The ability to kill him and ruin the entire Meng family, how dare he think about Gu Wan again.

"Father, you..." Meng Shuheng wanted to say something, he took a step forward, his eyes fell on the dead man's head, he took two steps back, buried his head, and didn't say another word.

I'm really not reconciled!Huo Xizhou killed Ma Biao so easily, and made his father give up trying to win Gu Wan to be his wife so easily.

Sure enough, in such a troubled world, only someone with a gun and power can have everything.

——In Meng Shuheng's heart, jealousy and desire for power arose, and soon like branches and vines entangled him tightly...

The family doctor of the Gu family came over and pinched Zhao Xiao'e. She soon regained consciousness and shouted in horror: "It's dead, it's dead..."

"Don't shout!" Meng Dechun could only reprimand her.

"By the way," Huo Xizhou said again, "I think it would be more suitable for Gu Yuting to be Meng Shuheng's seventh wife."

Aunt Seven, Gu Yuting is so mad!
"Then it's settled. The Gu family, prepare. Tomorrow I will have Shuheng come to pick you up. I still have something to do, so I'll take my leave first." Meng Dechun said this in a hurry, and pulled Zhao Xiao'e away.

It looked like he was afraid that if he took a step too late, he would turn into a dead head.

No matter how unwilling Meng Shuheng was to give up on Gu Wan, he could only grit his teeth and give up, and left with Meng Dechun and Zhao Xiao'e.

"Take it away! Take that damned head away!" Jiang Shumei yelled like crazy, and when she turned around, she saw Gu Wan still standing there noble and generous, as if she was the biggest winner, and immediately became angry Come on, point to Gu Wan and be satisfied: "Damn girl, your sister can only be a concubine now, are you satisfied?"
