Chapter XVI: Concessions
As Shui Wuyueqi's voice fell, the cold aura that originally seemed menacing was like a person who had been punched in the chest, and his momentum instantly withered. At the critical moment when the www.biquge.info two armies were fighting, they were naturally defeated immediately.
And taking advantage of this opportunity, the runes that swarmed towards Shui Wuyueqi's chest also immediately took advantage of the victory to pursue, and soon, they imprisoned that cold qi in Shui Wuyueqi's heart, making the other party unable to move.
Naturally, the cold air was not willing to be trapped, and began to frantically impact the blockade against himself. Unfortunately, by this time, this counterattack has long been useless. Soon, numerous runes mixed and intertwined on the skin of the chest above Shui Wuyueqi's heart, eventually forming an unusually repeated and exquisite pattern.
When the two forces fought just now, Shui Wuyueqi was tossed indistinctly, and at this moment, his whole body was dripping with sweat, his skin was flushed, and the whole person looked extremely weak and weak.
Seeing that the treatment had been effective, five more medical ninjas immediately stepped forward and began to carefully examine Shui Wuyueqi's physical condition. After a while, they each raised their heads and reported to Qianxia, "Miss, the effect has reached expectations. This treatment can already be over. ”
After listening to the reports of her subordinates, Qianxia breathed a long sigh of relief, and her face, which had been tense, relaxed slightly, and said, "Okay, I understand, you guys should go down and rest first." ”
The public forbearance should "yes" retire.
Qianxia came to Shui Wuyueqi's side, gently covered him with a piece of clothing, and then leaned over and said in Shui Wuyueqi's ear: "Qijun, the treatment is going well, you will be fine." ”
Shui Wuyueqi opened his eyes with some difficulty, glanced at Qianxia, and then fell into a deep sleep again.
……
Half a day later, Shui Wuyueqi sat peacefully in the patriarch's office, accompanied by a group of family elders, listening to the report of the clan prison administrators on the "Jingjia assassination".
After the young ninja standing in front of everyone finished his report, Shui Wuyue Qi turned around slightly and asked the elders next to him, "What do you think of Ryohei-kun's report?"
Now, there are still eleven elders in the Shui Wuyue clan, eight men and three women, most of whom are already middle-aged or old. After listening to Shui Wuyueqi's words, these people looked at each other, and occasionally discussed a few words in a low voice.
In the end, Saori's father, Mizuki Tomoki, spoke: "Patriarch, Soichiro's wolf ambitions, no one thought of it at the beginning. As for Shui Wuyue Jingjia, he is also a heinous criminal. In my opinion, it's better to expose this matter like this. For the good and equal people, it is only necessary to punish them slightly. When the other elders heard Shui Wuyue Zhihui's words, they all echoed their words.
In fact, most of the people present knew the truth behind this matter. Jingjia and Soichiro died together, and the biggest benefit was undoubtedly Shui Wuyueqi. Therefore, if the investigation of this incident is really launched, it is also the most suspicious of the water without a moon.
But looking at the current situation, Shui Wuyueqi has already monopolized power, and if the elders insist on investigating this matter, it will not only be difficult to shake Shui Wuyueqi, but it will easily incur sudden revenge. In this case, since Shui Wuyue Zhihui opened his mouth to make a ladder for everyone, everyone naturally hurried down.
Since the elder group unanimously stated that it would not pursue the matter in a big way, this "assassination" incident that shocked the entire family ended here. No one wants justice for the dead, except for the dead themselves.
Shui Wuyueqi lowered his head, flipped out his documents, and continued to speak: "Then, next, let's discuss the matter of sending clansmen to the country of vortex. This matter has been hanging in the balance, and now it is time for a result. ”
Hearing Shui Wuyueqi's proposal, many elders looked at each other again. Eventually, a female elder cautiously spoke, "Patriarch, I think this matter will be resolved until the next meeting of the Council of Elders." ”
According to the practice of the Shui Wuyue clan, such major matters are generally discussed and resolved in the elders' meeting, and what is represented behind them is the authority of the elders. In the Cangdou era, although major affairs were actually controlled by Cangdou's close subordinates, they were all nominally elders of the elder group after all.
But Shui Wuyueqi now wants to change this convention as soon as he opens his mouth, which is tantamount to seizing power from the hands of the elders. Therefore, even if it was possible to anger Shui Wuyueqi, these elders would never give in easily.
Shui Wuyue Qi listened to the female elder's answer, the shallow smile on his face did not change at all, and first said to Shui Wuyue Liangping: "Okay, Liangping-kun, your task has been completed, let's go down first." ”
When Shui Wuyue Qi was talking to the elders, Shui Wuyue Ryohei had been standing quietly, without making the slightest sound, like a sculpture. It wasn't until Shui Wuyueqi spoke to him that he seemed to wake him up. I saw that he bowed unhurriedly to Shui Wuyueqi, and replied respectfully, "Yes." ”
After saying that, he went down to his own place.
After Shui Wuyue Liangping left, Shui Wuyue Qi said to the many elders: "Today's discussion, let's go here first." Please go back to your own homes. As for the elders' proposal, they neither agree nor disagree.
Seeing this, the elders knew that it was already a good harvest to let Shui Wuyue take a step back secretly, so they all got up and said goodbye with interest. Then, after getting permission from Shui Wuyueqi, they left one after another.
Shui Wuyueqi stood up, walked to the window, looked at the backs of the elders leaving, and couldn't help but sigh softly. He wanted to clear the elders of the interference with him, but now the strings in the heads of the clansmen had reached a certain limit. If he continues to exercise repressive rule, he may indeed provoke a rebellion among some of his people. If it really comes to that point, it will be more than worth the loss.
Therefore, he can only agree to some requests from the elders first. No matter what happens, it's always hard to do it overnight. He was still young, he was patient.
