Chapter 112: It's not just the bones that are buried, but also the ambitions
Xiang Nan has been fighting for the Yuan family all his life, and he is the king of the south who guards the south of the Yuan family!
It is the elite selected by the Yuan family from tens of thousands of people, and this honor can be imagined.
Let him decide on his own, which means a kind of shame that is not recognized by Yuan Hengsheng, and for Xiang Nan, who lives and dies for the Yuan family, this is something even more unbearable than death.
Xiang Nan knelt on the ground and slowly took out a very quaint short knife from his arms.
He remembered this short knife very clearly, it was rewarded to him by Yuan Hengsheng when he made great achievements for the Yuan family.
He wore it all these years.
"The head of the family, everything to the south is given by you, there is nothing to return to the south, I hope that in the next life, I can still fight for the head of the family!" Xiang Nan slowly pulled out the short knife.
His lips were trembling, and there was not a trace of blood on his face.
Yuan Hengsheng didn't speak, turned his back to the south.
No one saw it, and there was a touch of helplessness and sadness in his eyes.
People are not plants and trees, who can be ruthless?
Xiang Nan has been with him for so many years, he has long regarded Xiang Nan as his own brother, but today, he has to do what the head of the family should do.
It is also to lay the foundation for Yuan Tao's future future.
Xiang Nan glanced at Yuan Hengsheng deeply, closed his eyes, and stabbed the short knife in his hand towards his neck.
Just as the short knife was about to cut the major artery in his neck, a sharp pain suddenly came from his wrist, and the short knife flew out.
Xiang Nan turned his head in shock and saw Yuan Tao standing beside him panting.
"Young master!?"
"Uncle Xiang, you get up first!" Yuan Tao let out a long exhale, convincing Xiang Nan from the ground.
Almost, if he had come a little late, Xiang Nan's life would have been gone.
Yuan Tao turned around and looked at Yuan Hengsheng with a determined gaze.
"Dad, let's forget this matter, Uncle Xiang has done a good job, he has been fighting for the Yuan family for so many years, and there is no merit and hard work, you just let him go this time!" Yuan Tao pleaded in his voice.
"But it's a fact that he doesn't protect well, as the person in charge of Wangbei City, he can't even protect his master, what's the use of him?" Yuan Hengsheng frowned into a Sichuan character, his voice also raised several decibels, and his eyes looked at Yuan Tao directly.
A powerful momentum rushed towards the face, like a tide.
Feeling this overwhelming pressure, beads of sweat began to seep out of Yuan Tao's head, but he still straightened his waist and looked at Yuan Hengsheng.
"Uncle Xiang is not my personal bodyguard, and I am not a child, I have my own thoughts and opinions. It's not anyone's puppet, is it possible that I still have to follow Uncle Xiang twenty-four hours a day, or go to the adults to cry and ask for help when I encounter danger? If that's the case, then I am not worthy of being the future heir of the Yuan family, let alone your son!" Yuan Tao said in a deep voice.
"You also know that you are the future heir of the Yuan family? If it weren't for your luck, you might have died! Don't say that one Xiangnan, ten Xiangnan will die at that time!" Yuan Hengsheng shouted.
"I'm sorry!" Yuan Tao lowered his head and felt a little guilty.
"Bang!" Yuan Hengsheng suddenly slapped on the desk.
Yuan Hengsheng suddenly became angry, startling the servants around him and Steward Li, who had been standing silently behind Yuan Hengsheng.
For many years, Yuan Hengsheng has never lost his temper.
Yuan Tao was also a little confused.
As the future heir of the Yuan family, dare to act, even if you die, you have to stand up your chest, I'm sorry I didn't say it, you have to remember that as the master of the Yuan family, the apology is left to the enemy!"
Yuan Hengsheng shouted.
His face flushed, he glared at Yuan Tao angrily, his eyes flashed with an unquenchable anger, his eyebrows rose one by one, and his face burst into blue.
Yuan Tao's mouth moved, he really wanted to say that he couldn't apologize if he did something wrong?
But looking at Yuan Hengsheng's angry face like a lion, he didn't dare to say this.
"I know!" Yuan Tao straightened his waist and said solemnly.
"Forget it! Since Xiao Tao is interceding for you, this matter is over, but the death penalty can be avoided, and the living crime cannot be escaped, you can go to the torture hall to receive the punishment yourself!" Yuan Hengsheng sighed and sat down on the chair again.
"Thank you for your kindness!" Xiang Nan was shocked, knelt on the ground with a puff, and made a big salute to Yuan Hengsheng.
He knelt down on one knee to Yuan Tao, put his fist on his chest, and said with a serious face: "Thank you to the south, the young master, and in the future, Xiangnan will do his best to assist the young master, and he will never give up!"
Seeing that Yuan Tao actually talked back to Yuan Hengsheng in order to help him intercede, Xiang Nan's eyes were also a little moist.
Although he was very respectful to Yuan Tao, he didn't have that heartfelt sense of following.
But at this moment, he actually had a feeling of wanting to follow in Yuan Tao's footsteps, just like following Yuan Hengsheng back then.
Yuan Tao nodded and helped Xiang Nan up.
However, Xiang Nan didn't dare to let Yuan Tao help him, and knelt and moved two steps back, and then stood up tremblingly.
He had been kneeling here for a day and a night, and his feet were still a little numb.
When Yuan Tao and Xiang Nan and the others left, Yuan Hengsheng's stiff face suddenly showed a smile of relief, which flashed.
"Family master, you did it on purpose just now, right? Steward Li stepped forward, reopened a pot of tea for Yuan Hengsheng, and said with a smile.
"He's still too young, he still has a long way to go if he wants to keep this country!" Yuan Hengsheng shook his head and sighed slightly.
"Actually, the young master's growth has been very fast, but his heart is still too kind, but I believe that after this time, he will definitely be able to grow!" Steward Li said softly.
"No!"
Yuan Hengsheng shook his head and said coldly: "If you want to become the head of the Yuan family, the word benevolence must be erased from the dictionary, and when he can bear to watch Xiang Nan cut himself off in front of him without changing his face, he can be regarded as barely qualified!"
Although Yuan Hengsheng's voice was very weak when he said this, it gave Steward Li a cold and piercing sense of fear.
It seems that Xiang Nan still has to be sacrificed, I hope he dies well.
Being able to sit in this position is no less than that of the ancient emperors.
Fathers and sons turn against each other, and there are too many fratricidal brothers.
Steward Li watched Yuan Hengsheng step by step, stepping on the bones of countless people to sit in the position of the head of the Yuan family.
It's not ruthless, it's unstable!
Under the throne of the head of the Yuan family, there are already many bones buried.
Buried under the loess are not only bones, but also ambitions.
"Then that kid from the Chen family, do you want to ......" A fierce light flashed in Steward Li's eyes, daring to hurt Yuan Tao, Steward Li now has an urge to destroy the Chen family.
"Leave it to that kid to deal with it himself, he can't even handle this little thing, and he doesn't deserve to be the heir of the Yuan family!" But ......" Yuan Hengsheng said lightly, and then he changed his words, "Properly teach the Chen family a lesson, and do it secretively." ”
"Don't worry, I know what to do!" Steward Li bowed slightly, his mouth trembling twice, and he seemed to have something to say.
"If you have something to say, you watch me grow up, watch me sit in the position of the head of the Yuan family, to me you are my relative, it doesn't hurt to say it directly!" Yuan Hengsheng said with a smile.
"Don't dare, don't dare!" Steward Li shook his head again and again, and took a deep breath before he mustered up the courage to say: "Can't you die to South Africa? After all, he is an old man who has been with the head of the family for more than 20 years!"
"Huh?" Yuan Hengsheng frowned.
Frightened, Steward Li's face turned pale, and he fell to the ground in an instant, "The head of the family forgives the sin, the master of the family forgives the sin, it's me who is too talkative!"
"If you want to succeed, someone must sacrifice!" Yuan Hengsheng said in a deep voice.
"But in this case, is it too hard to push the young master? I'm afraid it will backfire!" Steward Li knelt on the ground, a little worried.
At the same time, he also knew that once Yuan Tao stepped into the gate of the Yuan family again next time, it would be the death of Xiang Nan!
This is the mission to the south!
"Extraordinary things, with extraordinary means. Yuan Hengsheng's words flashed with a hint of depression.
"Could it be ......" Steward Li didn't know what he thought of, and his face was shocked.
"Yes, she's back!" Yuan Hengsheng sighed heavily, looking at the steaming tea, he lost his mind for a moment.
……
After staying in the family sanatorium for another two days, Yuan Tao left with Mu Hui.
The school has issued a death order, saying that if Yuan Tao is innocently absent from class, then he will not want to graduate.
Although for Yuan Tao, it doesn't make much sense to get a college diploma or not.
But the future Yuan family's home mainly doesn't even have a graduation certificate, which is also a bit too embarrassing.
After returning, Zhang Peng interrogated Yuan Tao overnight and asked him what happened that night.
Where did he go during this time?
Yuan Tao didn't explain much, but said that when he went that night, the ghost hand was killed, and he directly rescued Mu Hui, and then took Mu Hui home to see his parents.
In fact, Yuan Tao was also very puzzled by now, he asked Xiang Nan, did he see the person who saved him.
Xiang Nan also said that he didn't know, but said that he received news from Zhang Peng, so he rushed to the abandoned hospital, and saw Yuan Tao covered in blood.
Until now, Yuan Tao couldn't figure out who saved him.
The strength of the ghost hand is undoubted, otherwise he would not have come to Wangbei City alone to kill him.
Just look at the three beggars who died, all of them were killed with a single sword.
However, the ghost hand was killed in an instant, and one cut his throat, exactly the same way that the beggar he killed died.
It is conceivable that the strength of that person is countless times stronger than that of the ghost hand.
For the master of using a knife, Yuan Tao only knows one person, that is, the woman who looks exactly like Zhao Qingqing, and her weapon is also a dagger.
But Yuan Tao thought about it and felt that it was impossible, why did that 'Zhao Qingqing' save himself?
And they haven't seen each other for a long time, right?
Could it be the old beggar who saved his life last time?
But why didn't he show up?
Just when Yuan Tao wanted to have a headache, he heard Zhang Peng screaming in shock on the side.
"it! Taozi, look, Zhao Qingqing is actually engaged!"
