Chapter Ninety-Seven: Conspiracy

Just when I was puzzled, the master slowly spoke: "This patriarch does seem to be a hot potato, because once you become this patriarch, you and your companions will become the target of this trip, but if you can come back alive, everything in the Wang family will be completely changed because of you......"

Besides, I have never figured out why the current patriarch of the Wang family seems to be quite strong, so why is he suddenly going to choose a patriarch? And what does all this have to do with the king's power as the patriarch?...... Probably because of the amount of information, the king sitting next to me was also a little confused, and he didn't know where to start for a while.

Seeing that the two of us were stunned, my master didn't say anything for a long time, and kept sitting in a wheelchair panting. Probably because he said too many words today, Shigong's body was really a little unbearable, Wang Shijiu, who was standing behind Shigong, finally couldn't help but bend down and said, "Master, you can rest and rest, I'll tell them," After saying that, he straightened up, frowned and said to me and Wang Quan: "Our Wang family looks calm on the surface now, but in fact, the situation inside is very complicated," Wang Shijiu said this, his face gradually calmed: "Your Uncle Shao Hong is pushing the Wang family to the end. ”

"What?" Wang Quan and I heard Wang Nineteen's words, and directly exclaimed—Wang Quan glared at the bull's eye and asked directly, "What do you mean by this?"

Wang Nineteen's face was gloomy as if he was about to drip water, he looked at Wang Quan with burning eyes, and said in a deep voice: "They want the things in the ancestral hall, they have been thinking about it for too long and too long, but they have not succeeded in several times, so this time, in order to successfully take out the things in the ancestral hall, they have attracted some people who should not be here, if they don't stop them from messing around, once the things in the ancestral hall are obtained by them." Then the consequences will be unimaginable......"

After listening to Wang Nineteen's words, I couldn't help but be shocked in my heart: Who shouldn't be here? Could it be that we people outside the Wang clan are referring to it? But there were more than a dozen people sitting at a table eating at the same table that day, except for me...... Who the hell is the person who shouldn't be here?And what is hidden in that ancestral hall?Why is Wang Quan's grandfather and Wang XIX. Even the mysterious master in front of him was secretive about that thing?

Wang Quan obviously realized something, and hurriedly asked: "Uncle Nineteen, what is there hidden in that ancestral hall? Why do you and my grandfather seem to be very afraid when they mention this thing? and...... Who the hell isn't supposed to be here?"

After listening to the question of royal power, Wang Nineteen pondered slightly. He looked at the king with his sword-like gaze and said, "If you promise to be the patriarch, I will tell you something, but if you don't, I can't tell you anything." ”

After hearing this, I couldn't help but feel a little big: this is clearly to drive ducks to the shelves and force the king to be the king!

However, just when I was muttering to myself in my heart, the kid from Wang Quan didn't even think about it, and directly agreed: "Okay, Uncle Nineteen." I promise you, when the patriarch is elected tomorrow, I will do my best, after all, I am also a member of the Wang family, and I have the responsibility to protect our family from infringement. ”

While this kid was talking, I glared at him vigorously, signaling him not to agree so quickly, I always felt that there was something strange here, but the king of the monkey tip seemed to not see my eyes at the moment, and still finished those words categorically. The face was full of seriousness, and it looked like it was really moving.

After listening to Wang Quan's words, Wang Jiu breathed a long sigh of relief, and the eyebrows of the mysterious master who was sitting in a wheelchair were also full of relief. Wang Nineteen glanced at Shigong, and then continued to speak: "Okay, Shigong really didn't misunderstand you, it seems that you are a responsible person, then I will tell you the ins and outs of this matter of choosing a patriarch——"

"Wait a minute!" just as Wang Nineteen was about to continue. I interrupted him with a remark. My sudden opening directly caused the three of them to turn their heads to look at me, looking at the puzzled eyes of the three of them, I blushed and whispered, "This is ...... What this Nineteenth Uncle wants to say, after all, is the secret within your family, I, an outsider, is here, isn't it okay......? Shall I avoid it?"

Listening to me, Wang Shijiu pondered for a while, and just as he was about to say something, the master in a wheelchair slowly spoke: "No need...... Child, I believe in you. ”

When I heard my master's words, my heart shook violently: believe me, why do you believe me, do I look so reassuring? -- but although I was very confused in my heart, I still enjoyed the feeling of being believed.

Just when I was a little confused by Master's words, Wang Shijiu was obviously very surprised, he lowered his head to look at Master, and whispered hesitantly: "Master, this is ......"

Just when Wang Nineteen confirmed Shigong's meaning again, Wang Quan couldn't help but speak: "Uncle Nineteen, don't worry, this kid will definitely not say it, and I also believe her." ”

"Huh...... Don't worry, nineteen, our next patriarch has spoken, you can continue to say yours. Shi Gong looked at Wang Quan and said with a smile.

After listening to what the master said, Wang 19 no longer hesitated, nodded, and said: "Okay, I believe in Master's vision, then I will continue what I just said - about the election of the patriarch, I know that you are also full of questions, why did you choose to confirm the next patriarch at this time," Wang 19 said this, and there was a trace of anger in his eyes: "This is because this matter itself is a conspiracy - a conspiracy of the current patriarch of our Wang clan." ”

Wang Shijiu was really speechless, and this sentence directly shocked me: That Uncle Shao Hong, who looked very upright and majestic, actually masterminded a conspiracy? Thinking of this, I couldn't help but sigh in my heart: Now I understand, what does it mean to know people and faces, but not hearts...... But then again, what is this conspiracy for?

Just when I was puzzled, Wang Shijiu continued to say in a deep voice: "This matter has to start from three months ago...... It was a sunny afternoon, just in the early spring, and the weather was not too warm. As always, I took care of my master in the inner courtyard.

After lunch, I pushed my grandfather to the yard to bask in the sun, and after chatting with my grandfather for a while, when it was time for my grandfather to take a nap, I pushed my grandfather back into the house and waited for my grandfather to sleep.

Taking advantage of my master's nap, I began to clean the courtyard in front of the mourning hall. Just as I was sweeping the floor - suddenly, there was a knock on the door. I wondered: who will come at this time?

But I didn't pay much attention to it, after all, the people who could get in here must be my own family, so I thought so, and threw down my broom and went over to open the door. As soon as the door opened, I saw Wang Shaohong standing outside the door - at that time, I had not discovered his plot, and he was the current patriarch of the Wang family, so I also had great respect for him.

On the day Wang Shaohong became the patriarch, he told me that this kid was distracted, and asked me to help him. However, in the more than 20 years since he became the patriarch, he has not made any mistakes, and the Wang family has been managed by him in an orderly manner, I once thought that it was not the master who looked away, but the next thing completely subverted my opinion of him, but at that time I still had a good impression of him, so when I saw him coming, I quickly opened my mouth and smiled: 'Brother Shao Hong, why are you here?'

Wang Shaohong looked at me and said with a smile: "It's hard for you to take care of the old man, is the old man sleeping?" I nodded and told him that the master had fallen asleep. After listening to me, Wang Shaohong sighed, then thought for a while, as if he had made a great determination, and said to me: 'Nineteen, I want to resign as the patriarch. When I heard this, I was taken aback, and quickly asked him why he did it, but he just shook his head and said something about his old age and feeling that he could not take on this responsibility. I felt strange in my heart, and hurriedly opened my mouth to ask, and then he was willing to continue, he said that he felt ashamed in his heart, and he was sorry for his ancestors and ancestors.

Listening to him say these high-sounding words, I felt that something was wrong in my heart, so I quickly asked him what happened, and he muttered for a long time, and finally said: "I have been the patriarch for so many years, and I have never returned to the ancestral hall to worship once...... As soon as I heard his words, I instantly understood-it turned out that he was thinking about the things in the ancestral hall!--In fact, until now, I don't know what is in the ancestral hall, because no one who has been to the ancestral hall has come out alive - Except for your great-grandfather, Wang Shoude. ”

Wang Nineteen said this, paused, and looked up at Wang Quan sitting on the bench. (To be continued.) )
