(I spent 50 dollars to make this cover that I don't know how to evaluate. How could it be a eunuch? You guys are thinking too much. I'm just a little reckless. My old habits are just acting up.)）
"You're covered in blood. Hurry up and wash yourself. Don't barge in like this next time and scare our friends.”Zhao Mu patted Meng Wu's shoulder and swept his gaze across the Patriarchs of the major families in the hall.
At this moment, these family heads were like obedient rabbits, not daring to show the slightest bit of dissatisfaction. Everyone's hearts were filled with fear and anger, but they still had to show an ugly flattering smile on their faces.
"Men, clean up the hall.”Zhao Mu ordered indifferently.
"Yes." The Dragon and Tiger Cavalry rushed in and dragged the corpses out one by one. They then washed the blood off with water.
Zhao Mu did not change his location. He continued to stay in the room and chatted happily with the remaining Patriarchs of the various large families. They raised their glasses and drank together. His actions made the remaining people finally heave a sigh of relief.
This Demon King finally stopped killing people. Otherwise, his family might be finished.
As for taking revenge for Ba clan, Lao clan and the other seven clans, hehe, let's forget about it for the time being. Although the clans had been interacting with each other through marriage for so many years, there was a lot of them.
However, the remaining families were not as huge as the seven families. They were considered second-rate families, and their relationship with the seven families was not too close. Otherwise, Zhao Mu would not have let them go.
Secondly, after the fall of the seven families, the empty space was like a delicious cake to them. No one would be stupid enough to give up this cake and go against Zhao Mu, who was distributing the cake.
After finishing the meal with great difficulty, these family heads could not help but heave a sigh of relief when they walked out of the hall alive. This meal was really frightening. Thinking about it, they could not help but hurriedly get into the car and plan to leave.
"Family leaders, please wait a moment."
Meng Wu walked out with his back straight. He looked at the various families who were running for their lives and shouted mockingly.
His words seemed to freeze time. Many clan heads cursed in their hearts, but they had no choice but to turn around and cupped their fists at Meng Wu."General Meng, what are your orders? But does the Great General have something for us to do? We will definitely do our best."
"Haha, it's nothing much; you just need to contribute to Great Qin. The Great General won't make things difficult for you. "However, the Great General said that he will be leaving for the Jiang Prefecture tomorrow. In order to make the family leaders feel at ease, we will go to the Jiang Prefecture tomorrow to see the strength of Great Qin's army!”
The hearts of all the family heads trembled. Going from Chengdu to Jiang Prefecture should be safe, but the rebel army was trapped in Jiang Prefecture. This was a warning to the others.
Was it not enough for the seven great families to show Great Qin's army their unparalleled heroism to calm them down?
"We will obey your orders."
"I will definitely arrive on time tomorrow."
"Very good, take care. If there's anything, you can look for the Great General. The Great General has always been very concerned about the people who are loyal to Great Qin.”Meng Wu said with a smile. However, his smile only caused the clan heads to laugh awkwardly.
After the various Clan Heads left, Sima Ying and Meng Wu gathered in the study. Zhao Mu stood by the window with his hands behind his back. When he heard the footsteps behind him, he asked indifferently,"They all left?"
"Yes, Great General." Meng Wu replied.
"Yes." Zhao Mu nodded.
Sima Ying seemed to have something to say, but he was also a little hesitant. Although Zhao Mu did not turn around, he seemed to be able to see Sima Ying's hesitation and said,""General Sima, if you have something to say, say it.”
Sima Ying said," Great General, although killing the seven great clans can stabilize Shu Zhong, in the future, these clans will definitely develop to the scale of the seven great clans again. At that time, it will still be useless. Moreover, killing the seven great clans will definitely cause some turmoil and shake the development of Shu Zhong. This is a little…"
"The losses outweigh the gains, right?" Zhao Mu said those four words for him.
The seven families occupied a huge number of land and population, and they had the greatest say in the circulation of business. Although Zhao Mu had sent Meng Wu to kill all the main members of the seven families, you had to know that these intertwined families would always have some people in other places, some branch members.
There would always be loyal ones among them who might jump out.
Therefore, Sima Ying's worries were not wrong. The Sima Clan's plan was to defeat the rebel army and intimidate the seven great clans. After that, they would appease them and use the seven great clans to assist in the governance of Shu.
"If you want to permanently change the situation in Shu, a temporary pain is inevitable. Do you think that the seven great clans will one day be loyal to Great Qin?”Zhao Mu asked.
Sima Ying shook his head. The ancestor of the Ba Clan was Ba Manzi. Ba Manzi was the hero of the Ba people and had fought against the Qin and Chu countries. The ancestors of the Lao family were once the leaders of the Ba people, who were later exterminated by the Zhou Dynasty. The ancestor of the Du family was Emperor Wang…。。Wait, why would these people be loyal to Great Qin?
To put it bluntly, once Great Qin was unable to control Shu, they would immediately rise up. Who didn't want to restore the glory of their ancestors, just like Murong Bo and Murong Fu.
The only difference was that they were smarter and knew how to endure while Great Qin was strong.
"As such, since we can't get their loyalty back no matter what, what's the point of keeping them? Moreover, the people from the seven families are gone, so Great Qin can control most of the commercial space and leave some for the other families. The land could be given to the people in exchange for their support for Great Qin. Killing two birds with one stone, why wouldn't I kill him?"
Zhao Mu said indifferently.
Sima Ying smiled bitterly in his heart. Although it seemed simple, the pain in it was only you, the teacher of the Crown Prince, Marquis Wu Xin, who was trusted by the Emperor, would dare to do this. Otherwise, if someone else were to participate in this, Sima Ying would be finished.
"Great General is wise."
"You can leave now. Mobilize the troops and set off for Jiang Prefecture tomorrow to wipe out the rebel army in one fell swoop!”Zhao Mu said.
"Yes." Sima Ying and Meng Wu bowed.
