Reborn to abuse the scumbag, the demon queen destroyed her ex-husband's entire family
Chapter 139: A show of force
So I smiled and nodded to him politely.
The smile on Xiao Ruge's lips grew even bigger, and she nodded in return to Liu Kuishan.
At this time, another carriage came over. It was the other person who came to borrow grain last time. His surname was Liu, and everyone called him Mr. Liu.
Mr. Liu and Liu Kuishan were classmates in their early years. Because of similar interests, they cooperated with each other when they took over the family business. They supported each other along the way and became good friends.
He was not at home before, and heard that Lord Chang had someone to invite him in the evening. When he went to ask Liu Kuishan, the man had already arrived.
So he didn't dare to delay and changed his clothes and came.
As soon as Mr. Liu looked up after getting off the carriage, he saw his friend looking at him and then looking at Mu Gu. He knew that this person was not an ordinary person.
In addition, Lord Chang was standing behind this person, which showed that this person must be of noble status.
I heard from the servants at home that the seventh prince of the court had come to the city. I think this must be him!
"I pay my respects to His Royal Highness the Prince. May His Royal Highness live a thousand years!"
After saying this, he kowtowed three times to Mu Gu.
This scene made Xiao Ruge couldn't help laughing, and Mu Gu also laughed.
He first glanced at Liu Kuishan beside him, then looked at Mr. Liu and asked, "What's your name?"
"My surname is Liu, and my given name is just one character."
Liu Wen answered honestly, and Mu Gu laughed even more happily.
"You are a real man, get up!"
After Liu Wen expressed his gratitude, he stood up. When Chang Yunfei saw him, he immediately smiled and called him to his side, standing with Liu Kuishan.
Looking at the people standing there, Liu Wen asked Liu Kuishan with his eyes: Brother Liu, what is going on?
Liu Kuishan shook his head at him, indicating that he didn't know either.
Since neither of you knows, just stand there together!
So on that cold night, Mu Gu and Chang Yunfei stood at the door, waiting for the wealthy people to come.
Liu Kuishan and Liu Wen, who arrived first, were better off. They wore warm clothes and stood close to the brazier, so even if they were cold, they were not that cold.
But those who arrived neither early nor late suffered, as there was no seat left near the brazier, so they could only stand a little further away, shivering in the cold wind.
Because the invitation did not say that it was the Seventh Prince's invitation, when it came time, there was still one person who did not come.
Seeing that the others were almost unable to bear the cold wind, Chang Yunfei sighed, with a flash of anger in his eyes.
"Seventh Prince, let's go in. It looks like Ge Dashen is not planning to come."
Mu Gu sneered and sighed, "I never thought that Ge Dashen would be so arrogant. He even dared not come when I invited him. Fine, fine!"
He said "OK" three times in a row with a cold tone, which made the others shudder in their hearts. Just when they were thinking that Ge Dashen was going to be in trouble, they heard Mu Gu's cold voice.
"Mo Yi, take a team to raid Ge Dashen's house. This prince is here on behalf of my father. If he dares not take me seriously, he is disrespecting my father and the royal family! According to Dalong law, those who disrespect the royal family will be executed along with their entire clan!"
"Yes!"
Mo Yi on the side immediately responded loudly and waved his hand towards the door. A team of soldiers with solemn expressions ran out and followed him, heading towards Ge Dashen's house in an orderly manner.
This scene made everyone shudder with fear. Liu Kuishan and Liu Yuanwai were relatively better off. After all, they had established good relations with the government before and were very respectful to Mu Gu.
But others are different.
After hearing that Ge Dashen was about to be implicated along with his entire clan, his face turned pale.
They recalled the last time Chang Yunfei asked them to borrow grain, but they, under the leadership of Ge Dashen, refused to lend any grain to anyone, and their legs trembled suddenly.
After Mo Yi and his men left, Mu Gu turned around and walked towards the county magistrate's mansion.
Xiao Ruge stood there looking at several wealthy gentry with pale faces, and smiled as if making a gesture of invitation.
"Everyone, please come in. Our Highness has prepared food in the hall. Let's all go and have a taste!"
When they heard that there was still food, everyone thought it was the Hongmen Banquet or the meal before execution. Some of the timid ones even felt their legs go weak and they knelt on the ground.
Liu Kuishan and Liu Yuanwai looked at each other, and they took the lead and walked inside calmly.
The remaining few people were hesitant to speak, wondering if they could not go?
But when they saw Xiao Ruge blocking the door and the door slowly closing in front of them, they immediately realized that they had to eat today's meal whether they wanted to or not!
So one by one, they supported each other and slowly moved into the lobby.
After Xiao Ruge came in, the door behind her was immediately closed.
There was a slight "bang" sound, but it frightened several people behind and made them kneel down immediately.
"Seventh Prince, please spare my life! Please spare my life! I will never dare to do it again. As long as you can spare me, I will do anything!"
"Yes, yes, yes, I feel the same way. I only ask the Seventh Prince to show mercy and let me go!"
There were two timid ones who immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Mu Gu.
Mu Gu looked at the two of them and chuckled. His deep peach blossom eyes swept over the few people who were still standing but were also staggering.
"What are you two doing? Today, I just want to invite you to dinner so that you can get to know each other. Why do you suddenly want me to spare your lives?"
"Could it be that you have done something that defied the law and angered the heavens and the people?"
Xiao Ruge brought him a cup of hot tea, and Mu Gu took it. His fingers seemed to be careless, but in fact they were deliberately stroking the back of Xiao Ruge's hand.
Looking at Mu Gu with a serious face, Xiao Ruge couldn't help rolling her eyes in her heart.
Color embryo!
He cursed in his heart and obediently retreated behind Mu Gu.
The people who were asked by Mu Gu were speechless for a moment.
You can't say that you didn't give face to Lord Chang and refused to lend you grain, right?
Besides, who among you hasn't done something dirty for the sake of your family's business? You can't bring that up!
If they tell it out loud, it would not only be a capital crime, but they are also afraid that their entire clan would be implicated.
So the two people kneeling on the ground looked at each other, and for a moment they didn't know how to answer this question.
After scaring enough people, Mu Gu took a sip of tea slowly and said with a smile: "Everyone, please take a seat! This prince is the most reasonable. As long as it does not violate the laws of Dalong, this prince will naturally not embarrass you."
Mu Gu scared a few people today, which really helped Chang Yunfei vent his anger.
When he borrowed grain from them before, except for Liu Kuishan and Liu Yuanwai who were a little nice, the others wished they had their nostrils on top of their heads.
Some cunning ones even play Tai Chi with me, pushing it back and forth and refusing to respond to what I say.
Now seeing how cowardly they are, I dare not make excuses anymore.
Although he had some thoughts about it, today's goal still had to be achieved, so Chang Yunfei smiled and asked everyone to take a seat.
Those people looked at each other and wondered whether to sit down or not.
