Poor Family: I reached the top by marrying a wife

Chapter 319 Assassination



Chapter 319 Assassination

Night, Lichunyuan.

Zheng Changjiang was drunk in the private room, hugging two beauties.

Sun Ruotong is dead.

He could no longer hold back his long-suppressed desires.

Today, he will let go.

But just when he was drinking happily, the door of the room was suddenly kicked open.

"Ah~!"

The two young ladies in the room couldn't help but scream out in surprise when they saw this anger!

Zheng Changjiang's face changed drastically!

"who!?"

He looked towards the door in panic.

But when he looked again, he saw a man dressed in black and holding a dagger!

"assassin!?"

This was the first thought in Zheng Changjiang’s mind!

"Haha, Zheng Changjiang, you dare to be rude to our young master, go to hell!"

The man in black smiled coldly at Zheng Changjiang and rushed over with a dagger in his hand!

"Someone is coming!"

"Help!"

Zheng Changjiang saw that the situation was not good and shouted hurriedly!

The guard next door heard Zheng Changjiang's shout and rushed out!

When the guard saw the man in black, his face suddenly changed!

"No! There's an assassin!"

"Quick! Kill him!"

The guards took out their weapons and rushed towards the men in black!

When the man in black saw the guards appear, he didn't want to fight anymore and turned around and jumped out of the window to escape!

"Don't chase!"

The guards wanted to chase after him, but Zheng Changjiang stopped them!

"Sir, are you okay?"

The guards returned to Zheng Changjiang and asked with concern.

If something happens to Zheng Changjiang, then they... will all die!

"I...I'm fine, let's go to the inn!"

Zheng Changjiang was trembling all over at this time.

He no longer wanted to drink wine and hurried to the inn where he was staying!

After Sun Ruotong died, Zheng Changjiang no longer lived in the Sun family.

After all, seeing the things reminded him of the past, and Zheng Changjiang felt uncomfortable!

……

"Sir, who is that assassin?"

"Sir, did the assassin leave any clues?"

After returning to the inn, the two guard commanders hurriedly asked Zheng Changjiang.

When Zheng Changjiang heard what the two guards said, he took a deep breath and said angrily, "That assassin must be Jiang Chen's man!"

"What!?"

The guards were shocked when they heard this!

Is Jiang Chen so bold as to assassinate their young master?

"Sir, how did you know?"

The two guard commanders looked at each other, and one of the guards asked Zheng Changjiang in confusion.

"Haha, how do I know?"

Zheng Changjiang laughed coldly.

"When the assassin rushed in, he told me that I had offended their young master, so he wanted to kill me!"

"Who have I offended in Luzhou County?"

"Only Jiang Chen!"

"So, this must have been done by that Jiang Chen!"

"He was afraid that I would find out that Sun Ruotong's affairs were related to him, so...so he wanted to strike first and kill me!"

"this……!?"

The two guards were shocked when they heard what Zheng Changjiang said!

Would this assassin be stupid enough to reveal his identity?

There is obviously something wrong with this matter!

But looking at Zheng Changjiang's expression, they didn't dare to say anything.

"Sir, what are you going to do?"

"Sir, this Luzhou County is a place of trouble. The reason you came here is for this honeycomb charcoal."

"But given your current relationship with Jiang Chen, it's impossible for you to get honeycomb charcoal. Let's...go back to the capital!"

"Yes, sir, let's go back to the capital!"

The two guards began to persuade Zheng Changjiang.

But they didn't dare to stay.

If something really happens to Zheng Changjiang, it will be difficult to deal with!

……

"Haha, going back to the capital?"

When Zheng Changjiang heard what the two said, he couldn't help sneering!

"If I go back to the capital now, wouldn't that mean I'm afraid of Jiang Chen!?"

"No, I can't go back!"

"This Jiang Chen actually dared to assassinate me, so he must pay the price!"

The two guard commanders looked helpless when they heard Zheng Changjiang's words.

They could only retreat respectfully.

But after retreating, the two of them hurriedly wrote a letter and sent someone to deliver it to the capital!

The current situation in Luzhou County is no longer under their control. They must pass the message back and let their patriarch make the decision.

At the same time, in Lichunyuan.

Miss Xuanxuan was sitting in the room drinking tea leisurely.

A maid walked into the room and said respectfully, "Saint, we have investigated the matter. It is said that a man in black came to assassinate Zheng Changjiang~, and the two girls said that the man in black claimed to be coming for their master, saying that Zheng Changjiang had offended their master~"

"You came here for their son?"

"Haha, that's interesting."

When Miss Xuanxuan heard the maid's words, a smile appeared on her lips.

She knew Zheng Changjiang's identity.

Now in Luzhou County, the only one who has a grudge against Zheng Changjiang is probably... Jiang Chen!

But would Jiang Chen be so direct?

"Haha, it seems... someone wants Jiang Chen and Zheng Changjiang to fight each other~"

Miss Xuanxuan smiled seductively.

"Saint Maiden, do you mean that someone is framing Young Master Jiang Chen?" The maid looked confused.

"Haha~ That must be the case, but I just don't know who this person is~"

"However, this time... we can see Jiang Chen's strength~"

As the saint spoke, a gleam of light flashed in her eyes!

If Jiang Chen is powerful, then she... must pull Jiang Chen to their side!

……

The next morning, at the Sun family.

Sun Qiu looked at the housekeeper kneeling on the ground, his face full of shock!

"You...what did you say?"

"The young lady took away all the banknotes, silver notes, and gold and silver jewelry in the house!?"

"Now, there is less than one thousand taels of silver in the family's account!?"

"Master, didn't you tell me before that the young lady should make the decision?"

"So...so..." the butler said tremblingly.

"I...I let her make the decision, but I didn't ask her to empty the whole house!?"

"Now that the young lady has been burned to death, then... those banknotes..."

When Sun Qiu thought of this, his face was filled with horror!

Those banknotes, weren't all burned?!

"Zheng Changjiang!"

"No! We must go find Zheng Changjiang!"

Thinking of this, Sun Qiu rushed out in a hurry!

Now that we have no money left, if things aren’t done well, the Sun family will be doomed!

But when Sun Qiu arrived at the inn where Zheng Changjiang lived, he received bad news!

"Master Sun, Ruotong has never explained clearly to me what your family is going to do!"

"She just asked me to answer you like that, so... I answered." Zheng Changjiang said calmly.

Now that Sun Ruotong is dead, he will not be polite to Sun Qiu.

"Ruotong...Ruotong asked you to answer like this?"

After hearing what Zheng Changjiang said, Sun Qiu turned around and left trembling.

Only now did he realize that he... had been plotted against!

And the one who schemed against him was none other than...his own daughter!
