Rebirth of a hero

Chapter 56 Poisoning
As time passed, Pingyang County became less prosperous and prosperous due to the dominance of the Zhao family.

In particular, Dongcheng, where the Zhao family lived, has been upgraded to a new level. There are three more restaurants and brothels alone. There is an endless flow of people every day, just like the consumer treasury in Pingyang County, making money every day.

The boss behind it, the Zhao family, is even richer every day, but their daily expenses are also huge, of which Zhao Gao spent two-thirds of the money on practicing kung fu.

In the hall of the Zhao family, Zhao Sheng's face was already full of red light. In the past few days, due to the support of a large number of pills, under Zhao Gao's guidance, Zhao Sheng was pushed to the peak of the martial artist.

"Brother, are you sure you're leaving tomorrow?" Zhao Sheng had some reluctance in his eyes. Once his elder brother left, he didn't know when he would be able to meet again.

Zhao Gao smiled and said, "Yes, it's been almost a year. It's been almost a year since I reached the Houtian realm. Only by going outside constantly can I reach a higher realm."

After all, Pingyang County is nothing more than a partial place. At this time, it is no longer necessary for his martial arts progress. If he wants to advance to a more powerful warrior realm, he must leave this place.

"Well, since my elder brother insists on this, my younger brother can't stop me." Zhao Sheng said with a look of reluctance, "Then before my elder brother leaves, can I give my unborn child a name?"

In the past year, after pacifying the power of the major families in Pingyang County, Zhao Gao deliberately married Zhang Chuchu, the daughter of Zhang Chu, the captain of Pingyang County, and now Zhang Chuchu is pregnant. The child in the womb of the moon will be born.

"A name?" Zhao Gao pondered, "Why don't you call the male Zhao Tai, the Tai of the country and the people's peace, and the female Zhao Min, the quick-thinking Min."

"Okay, just listen to my brother. The boy's name is Zhao Tai and the girl's name is Zhao Min." Zhao Sheng was also very satisfied with the name Zhao Gao chose.

Zhao Gao nodded and said, "Well, I have something to call everyone over tonight, and I have to invite your father-in-law Zhang Chu over by the way."

Tonight, it's also time to order everything, and by the way, beat those who have restless thoughts in their hearts.

Zhao Gao's eyes drifted a little. He was about to leave this familiar and unfamiliar place soon, but he didn't feel any reluctance in his heart. He just felt a little bit emotional about what he would become in this year if he didn't have a systematic self.

Soon, the night gradually fell. At this time, Zhao's house was brightly lit, and the huge courtyard was filled with densely packed people.

"I heard that the young master has something important to give you tonight?"

"Yeah, Mr. Zhao rarely showed up this year, and every time he showed up, there would be a bloodbath. I remember the last time a small gang leader who surrendered suddenly rebelled, and it caused a huge commotion. Mr. Zhao Once out of the customs, the problem was solved with only a few knives, but I don’t know what important things to order this time.”

"Yes, I'm afraid it's a big deal for so many people to come here today. Let's try to drink as little alcohol as possible later, so as not to miss a big deal and be blamed by Mr. Zhao."

Everyone nodded one after another. To put it mildly, today is a grand banquet, but in fact it is just a meeting. I and others dare not eat and drink too presumptuously, so it would be more comfortable to hold a small party by myself.

After a long time, when everyone was waiting for the dishes to cool down, Zhao Gao and Zhao Sheng slowly went up to the stage with two bright red cloth bags.

"Everyone, I was a little late for something just now, and I'm here to announce the official start of the banquet." Zhao Gao showed a self-conscious smile to the people below.

"Yes, my lord!" Everyone who had waited for a long time was a little hungry, and finally started to move their chopsticks under Zhao Gao's order.

Seeing that everyone was moving their chopsticks, Zhao Gao had a triumphant smile in his eyes.

When he saw that everyone was full and full, Zhao Gao suddenly said: "While everyone is eating, I want to announce something."

"Tomorrow, I will leave Pingyang County. After that, I know that there are many powerful people who will not accept my brother. So, the reason why I came late today is because of this."

"Guru..."

Zhao Gao threw out the cloth bag in his hand, and several huge heads rolled out of it, including Liu Sandao, whom Zhao Gaowei took a heavy responsibility for, and Wang Hongfei, the high-ranking master of the Flying Eagle Hall, and other backbones of the Zhao family.

Looking at the tense people, Zhao Gao said with some heartache: "Everyone, don't be nervous. These people are in vain. I trust them so much, but they secretly played tricks on me. It's fine to deduct a small amount of money privately, but this year is enough. You have embezzled tens of thousands of taels of silver, do you think you should kill him?"

"Kill! You should kill!"

Everyone broke out in cold sweat, and when the water was clear, there would be no fish. They had also confiscated some family items in this year, but fortunately, the amount was not huge.

"I know that you usually have some small actions behind your back, but I don't care. Only in this way can you be more motivated to do better things, but if you feel disobedient to me, Zhao Gao, and the Zhao family, then today's Liu Sandao, etc. People are your fate in the future."

Zhao Gao suddenly had a cold look, and seeing someone with cold sweat on his face and a bit of pain, he grinned and said, "Is it starting to feel a little uncomfortable? How do these dishes taste?"

"What? Mr. Zhao, you actually poisoned me!"

"We are loyal to you, Mr. Zhao, why do you treat us like this?"

"My good son-in-law, you can give me the antidote for Chu Chu's face."

Among them, the lieutenant Zhang Chu begged, tugging at the sleeve of Zhao Sheng next to him.

Seeing the unsatisfactory looks of everyone, Zhao Gao laughed: "Don't worry, it's okay, I will give you the antidote."

Just as everyone was waiting for him to breathe a sigh of relief, Zhao Gao continued to laugh and said, "But this poison does not have an antidote to completely detoxify, and you need to take the antidote once every six months. If you feel disobedient during this period, the antidote It will not be released, and you will have to wait for the poison to die."

"Of course, as long as you are loyal to my younger brother Zhao Sheng, he will not refuse to give out the antidote."

Everyone endured the pain and nodded and said: "Don't dare, we will be loyal to the Zhao family forever, to Mr. Zhao, and to Mr. Zhao Sheng."

Zhao Gao asked his cronies next to him to hand out the antidote with a satisfied face.

"I have arranged everything for you, and you can take charge of the entire Pingyang County with peace of mind. In this way, even without my shock after I leave, they will be much more at ease." Zhao Gao patted Zhao Sheng on the shoulder. Go back to the room.

Looking at Zhao Gao's back, Zhao Sheng couldn't help having a sore nose, and solemnly thought in his heart that he must manage Zhao Gao well, even if he can't help his brother, he must not cause him any trouble.
