Chapter 71 More than two hundred years ago, the Heavenly King Hongwu

"did a good job."

Cui Heng nodded lightly to Hui Shi, then looked at Sun Panshi, He Chengmao, and Monk Jingcong, and chuckled, "What do you three want to say?"

At this time, the three of them had all been forced to kneel in front of Cui Heng. They

no longer had the arrogance they had before.

At this point, they were completely desperate. They

couldn't even think of running away.

After all, with a terrifying strong man like Hui Shi who could sweep away thousands of troops, it was impossible to escape.

Now, the most important thing is how to survive.

Only by surviving can you have everything.

Otherwise, everything will be in vain.

Sun Panshi's mind was turning, what should he do?

Threats are definitely not an option.

If the other party is really jealous of his identity, he won't do it at all.

Then you must show your own value.

But where is your own value?

Wang Jinsheng!

Sun Panshi's eyes suddenly lit up, and he hurriedly lay on the ground and said to Cui Heng: "My lord, my lord! I have an emergency to report, and it is a situation that only I know!"

As soon as he said this, He Chengmao and Monk Jingcong beside him suddenly changed their faces and started to curse.

"Bullshit! You want to tell me about Wang Jinsheng's news! I know it too, what do you mean only you know it?"

"I know it too, I know it too! My lord, that Wang Jinsheng is from Yanzhou, and is from the Langya Wang family, one of the seven famous surnames!"

The former was He Chengmao, and he just retorted and cursed Sun Panshi, while the latter was Monk Jingcong, who directly told the news he knew.

Yanzhou Langya Wang family!

Except for Cui Heng and Hui Shi, everyone present had a slightly changed expression, revealing a look of suspicion.

"What do you know?!" Sun Panshi also became furious after hearing what the two said, pointing at them and scolding, "I have known Wang Jinsheng for a long time, and I know much more than you do. I can definitely help you, sir!"

Then, he said to Cui Heng with a flattering look on his face, "Sir, don't listen to their nonsense. These two have only had a few meals with Wang Jinsheng, and the information they know is just superficial. Only I have a deep understanding of Wang Jinsheng." "Sir

, do you want to listen to him first?" Xu Feng'an used his true Qi to perform secret sound transmission and said to Cui Heng, "After all, the Wang family of Langya is one of the seven most prestigious families in the world, and its background is extraordinary."

"There's no rush for that." Cui Heng shook his head lightly, and said to Hui Shi, "Take the three of them away first, and continue to search their homes tomorrow. After all those merchants are cleared out, we will hold a public trial together."

"Yes! Sir!" Hui Shi bowed, then grabbed the three people with both hands and lifted them up.

"Sir! No, don't!" Sun Panshi panicked when he saw this and shouted, "Sir, the information I know is really crucial, very crucial!"

"Yes, I know." Cui Heng nodded and reminded Hui Shi, "Pay attention during the public trial, don't let the people beat them to death, just keep them alive."

Sun Panshi and the other two were the culprits who oppressed and exploited the people of Lu County. Putting them together with those merchants for public trial would be more conducive to the spread of the truth.

At the same time, it would also be more conducive to mobilizing the emotions of the people.

This was an opportunity for Cui Heng to make great progress in his cultivation.

Naturally, he couldn't let it go.

Moreover, interrogating them after the public trial would also be more able to confirm the comprehensiveness and authenticity of the information.

After Sun Panshi and the other two were taken away by Huishi, the county governor's mansion finally returned to peace.

Only the lingering smell of blood in the air and the body parts on the street ahead indicated that this place had just experienced an extremely brutal one-sided massacre.

"Captain Chen, take people to clean up the streets to avoid disturbing the people tomorrow." Cui Heng said to Chen Tong, "If there are any soldiers who survived, arrest them and wait for their punishment." "

Yes, sir!" Chen Tong saluted respectfully, then hurriedly left and ordered people to clean up the streets overnight.

After seeing Huishi break through three realms in a row and kill people everywhere, he became obedient to all Cui Heng's decisions and had no other thoughts.

"You two, come with me." Cui Heng said to Xu Fengan and Liu Litao, and turned back to the inner hall.

...

In the inner hall of the county governor's office.

Cui Heng took a sip of hot tea and asked Xu Fengan and Liu Litao: "I have heard of the Qi Wang surname before, but I don't know much about it. Can you tell me more?"

In the past period of time, he asked Xu Fengan and Liu Litao to learn about the overall situation of this world.

The world nominally respects the Dajin royal family as the head, but in fact, there are many mountains everywhere. Even the governors who essentially rely on the Dajin regime have begun to govern themselves.

The entire Dajin is almost falling apart.

Therefore, the ten governors except Zhongzhou are the most powerful people in the world in name.

But this is only on the surface.

In this world, the clans and the noble families are the eternal protagonists.

Although the imperial court and the governors of the states control a large amount of military power, the clans and the noble families have penetrated into all walks of life with their deep foundations.

They are present in all industries, including people's livelihood, military industry, water transport, ore, gold and iron, and so on.

If there are any problems in these industries, let alone a county or a state, the people of the whole world can be instigated to rebel, and the imperial court can be immediately collapsed.

Moreover, the clans and the noble families have the highest individual military force in the world.

Even if a person's high-end military force cannot compete with the army head-on, they can still behead and assassinate.

As long as the imperial court dares to take action against the clan's noble families, they dare to let the current officials and even the royal family members die violently, and many dynasties have been overthrown because of this.

Therefore, there has never been a thousand-year-old dynasty in this world, but there are many thousand-year-old sects and aristocratic families.

The three holy places of Taoism, the six holy places of Buddhism, the thirteen sects of evil spirits, the nine swords of the world, the twelve gangs of the world, and the sixteen aristocratic families of the world are all the best among them.

The Qi Wang family is among the sixteen aristocratic families of the world.

However, in fact, the seven prominent families are all top families with a history of more than three thousand years. They are on the same level as Daoyi Palace, the leader of Taoism, and Baolin Zen Temple, the leader of Buddhism.

The other nine families are not at the same level as the seven prominent families.

"The seven prominent families are said to be the main supporters of the establishment of the Great Jin Dynasty." Liu Litao understood more about the court. "More than two hundred years ago, at the end of the Yuan Dynasty, the world was in chaos and many heroes emerged.

"At that time, the founding emperor of the Great Jin Dynasty was actually just an insignificant force. By chance, he married a noblewoman from the Wang family of Langya, and then he gained support and rose rapidly. Then he gained the support of the other six prominent families, and finally he was able to sweep the world and establish the Great Jin Dynasty."

"Well, I've heard of this too. "Xu Fengan nodded, and suddenly he seemed to think of something, and smiled: "Speaking of which, there is a rumor about this matter that I don't know whether it is true or not."

"Oh?" Cui Heng asked with interest, "What rumor?"

"Let the adults know." Xu Fengan replied respectfully, "It is said that these seven surnames suffered heavy losses in supporting the rise of Taizu, the founding emperor of the Jin Dynasty, especially the Wang family of Langya, which was almost wiped out.

"And it also triggered the martial arts catastrophe more than two hundred years ago-the Hongwu Heavenly King killed all the gods in the world."

"Who?" Cui Heng raised his eyebrows.
