Chapter Fifty-Six: Interests, Family Affection, and Which Is Important?
Zhao valve manor, inside the villa.
"Bang!
With the sound of explosion, an antique tea cup worth hundreds of thousands of dollars suddenly fell to the ground, and the jade pieces that exploded flew in all directions.
After Zhao Guiting finished dropping the teacup, he looked at a little housekeeper at home with an angry face:
"What did you say, ma'am, what's wrong with her?!"
The housekeeper looked at the angry Zhao Guiting, lowered his head, and continued tremblingly: "Master, I also just received the news that this afternoon, Ji Haotian went to Fang's house and killed Fang Haoshen and Fang Haoming one after another.
And Mrs. She...... Not spared, not only that, the Fang family's descendants and clansmen have not escaped this catastrophe, at this moment, the Fang family's manor has fallen into a sea of fire, the fire has been burning for several hours, but there is still no sign of extinguishing. β
"Bang!"
Zhao Guiting slapped on the tea case again: "This Ji Haotian is simply too deceitful! Since he returned to Yunzhou, he has been doing nonsense all day long, and the old man has turned a blind eye, and today he actually dares to do something to my Zhao family for no reason! Could it be that he really deceived me and no one in Yunzhou!"
"Master, Ji Haotian's assassination of Mrs. today does not seem to be without purpose. β
The housekeeper paused for a moment and continued stubbornly: "For many years, the rivers and lakes in the city have been bullying Ji Haotian's mother and sister, and now that Ji Haotian has returned, he naturally wants to seek justice for them, and the fiancΓ©e of Xing Runze, the son of Xing Chengzhi, is the daughter of Fang Haoming, the second master of the Fang family, Fang Manqian.
That is, a few days ago, Ji Haotian went to Xing's house on Xing Runze's wedding day and got rid of Xing Runze's father and son, and Fang Qingrong, the third young master of the Fang family, who went to pick up his relatives, talked to Ji Haotian for a few words, and the two didn't know how to move, and Fang Qingrong's legs were abolished by Ji Haotian!"
"Getting to the point!"
Zhao Zhong, the chief butler of the Zhao Mansion, frowned and interrupted his subordinates' words, and asked sharply: "Even so, this matter is a grudge between the Ji family and the Fang family, what does it have to do with me Zhao Valve?"
"This matter really has nothing to do with the Zhao family, but Mrs. can't escape the involvement, after Fang Qingrong was injured, the Fang family sent a secret killer to attack and kill Ji Haotian, but unfortunately missed, it is estimated that Fang Haoshen should also be cornered, so he found Madame, and Mrs. She, and introduced the killer of the Life and Death Forest to Fang Haoshen, today, on the tenth year of the Ji family's sacrifice day, there are several enemies of the past who took the killer of the Life and Death Forest to the old house of the Ji family in Xuanxiu Mountain......"
"It's nonsense!"
When Zhao Guiting heard this, his face turned blue with anger: "Madam went to Zhuge Hongtu in private, why didn't this old man contact me!" Zhao Zhong, contact Zhuge Hongtu immediately, I will definitely ask him for an explanation on this matter!"
"Sir, it's getting late. β
The subordinate shook his head slightly: "This afternoon, before Ji Haotian went to the Fang family, he first went to the Forest of Life and Death, and at this moment, most of the killers under the Forest of Life and Death have already been killed and injured, and even Zhuge Hongtu was beheaded by Ji Haotian. β
"What did you say? Zhuge Hongtu killed him?"
When Zhao Guiting heard this, he really felt a chill.
As the head of the Zhao valve family with the most limelight among the six valves, he naturally comes into contact with people who are located on the spire of the Yunzhou Pyramid on weekdays, especially the arrogant Zhuge Hongtu, who has relied on many of his masters for many years.
Zhao Guiting knew Zhuge Hongtu's strength very well, but what he never expected was that in the Yunzhou realm, in addition to his own Zhao Valve, there were actually people who could deal with the Forest of Life and Death, and it only took half a day.
That's it.
Inexplicably cold.
"Hurry up the for me! Whoever continues to grind, master, I will cramp his tendons!"
Just as Zhao Guiting was pondering, Zhao Shangjun's shouting and scolding had already come from outside the door, and immediately after, Zhao Shangjun walked into the hall with a gloomy face and walked straight to Zhao Guiting:
"Dad, I need a family master's order!"
When Zhao Guiting heard this, his face turned cold: "For no reason, what do you want the head of the family to order?"
Dad, this afternoon, my mother has died at my uncle's house, I think you should have received the news before me, is this also called innocent?"
Zhao Shangjun looked at Zhao Guiting with an angry face: "I came to you just to ask the master of the monk to order me to mobilize my Zhao family shadow guard to avenge my mother, I have already found out, at this moment Ji Haotian is holding a banquet in Xintai Hotel, I want to personally take down this evil obstacle!"
Today, I will capture Ji Hao Tiansheng, and then kill this thief with my own hands in front of my mother's spirit, and then crush my bones and scatter ashes to comfort my mother's spirit in heaven!"
"Bang!"
Zhao Guiting slammed the table: "Nonsense! Zhao Family Shadow Guard, it is an organization that our family has carefully cultivated for hundreds of years before it took shape, and its role can only be invoked when the sect suffers a catastrophe, do you think they are a tool for you to vent your personal anger!"
"Dad, our Zhao family is now enough to leap to the top of the six valves, and its prestige in Yunzhou is in full swing, but today my mother was killed by a little-known Ji Haotian, won't this incident affect the reputation of my Zhao family? For a gate valve like us, the loss of prestige and reputation is not considered a catastrophe!"
Zhao Shangjun's face was full of murderous energy:
"Since Li Jinxiu died last time, I wanted to meet this Ji Haotian for a while, but you blocked it horizontally, but today he has killed my mother, do you still want me to sit on the well and watch?"
"This matter is a family affair of the Zhao family, not a child of yours should worry about, from now on, you are not allowed to mention your mother's affairs again, let alone take half a step out of the Zhao family!
Zhao Guiting saw that Zhao Shangjun was emotional, and ordered without hesitation.
Zhao Shangjun's eyes widened, and his expression was full of resistance: "Dad, the knowledge I learned since I was a child is loyalty, filial piety, benevolence, and faith, and now my mother has been poisoned, you let me endure it?!"
"With the strength of the Zhao family, it is easy to deal with a Ji Haotian, but the forces behind him are not something we can afford to provoke, besides, today's matter, I have already investigated it clearly, and I have my own decision-making method, you don't need to participate. β
Zhao Guiting didn't hesitate to wave his hand, in fact, all his words were for Zhao Shangjun, and he didn't have any ideas to deal with it, because in the previous Yunzhou, Zhao Guiting wanted to clean up someone, it was as simple as moving his fingers.
But since Ji Haotian returned, the sky in Yunzhou seems to have changed, although Zhao Guiting has not fought with Ji Haotian, but he faintly feels in his heart that if he provokes Ji Haotian, it will definitely bring an unexpected disaster to the Zhao family.
Zhao Guiting, who has mastered Zhao Valve for more than ten years, has always trusted his sixth sense.
Seeing this, Zhao Shangjun became even more angry: "Dad, what do you mean, is my mother's life so worthless in your eyes?
"Presumptuous! Look at your current appearance, where do you still look like a son's tone when you speak! Let me tell you, in addition to your identity is my son, you are also the heir of Zhao Valve, and what you have to learn today is to give up some things for the benefit of the family, even family affection!"
Zhao Guiting stopped talking, and waved his hand violently: "Come on, take the young master back to the room and take strict care of it!"
"Dad, our Zhao family is in Yunzhou, and we can already turn the rain and clouds, what are you afraid of!! I don't understand, why are you so cowering today......
Soon, Zhao Shangjun was dragged away by several guards.
"Alright, you all go down!"
Zhao Zhong waved his hand and sent the other subordinates away, and whispered to Zhao Guiting: "Master, no matter what, Fang Haoyue is also your original wife, she died tragically today, are you really not ready to speak out?"
"Before investigating all the details of Ji Haotian, no one is allowed to act rashly. β
Zhao Guiting took a deep breath: "Although the strength of the Fang Valve is the weakest among the six valves, even with our Zhao family, it is not a simple matter to want to destroy the Life and Death Forest and the Fang Family at the same time in such a short period of time.
Now that the Fang family has been destroyed, we must be more cautious, and we must not repeat this mistake! Madame's revenge, I must avenge it, but this matter must be considered in the long run, I must not treat my life and clan as playthings like the two straw bales of the Fang family!"
