Chapter IX: Supersedence
You replaced me as the Lord of Dan?
"Why?" Mrs. Xie said coldly.
"Because you have behaved in a manner that is immoral." Xie Rouhui said with a smile, "Although grandmother also had an affair when she was young, but in the end, when she was young, she was also with outsiders, but the people involved in my mother this time are people in our Xie family, and they are also in a disorderly relationship. ”
Mrs. Xie sneered.
"Presbyterian? Xie Rouhui, you asked the Council of Elders to decide whether Lord Dan would stay or go? "Do you know what that means?" ”
Xie Rouhui looked at her.
"It means that you can use them for your benefit today, and you can be used by others for your benefit in the future." Mrs. Xie said, "You dare to let the Elders Council decide whether Lord Dan will stay or not, you have hung a knife on your head!" ”
"It's much better to hang a knife than to have it cut at my neck." Xie Rouhui shouted, stretched out her finger and pointed at herself, and stood up straight to look at Mrs. Xie, "You forced this!" ”
Mrs. Xie looked at her.
"What good do you promise them?" She suddenly asked, "What family's reputation is not enough for them to do such a thing." ”
Xie Rouhui smiled.
"It's nothing, it's just giving them the benefit you want to take away from them." She said, shaking her head again when she said this, "Mother, you actually gave the entire Xie family to others just to ask me to have a child?" Are you stupid? ”
Mrs. Xie sneered.
"Am I stupid? The entire Xie family exists because of Dannu, and there is no Dannu. What else is there to thank the family, and what are the benefits! She said.
"No Dannu?" Xie Rouhui stepped forward, "Then what am I?" Am I dead? ”
Without waiting for Mrs. Xie to reply, she straightened up again.
"Yes, in your eyes, I am indeed dead." She said, looking around, "You've treated me like a dead man from the time you locked me up in this tunnel. ”
Tunnel?
This is the secret passage?
Mrs. Xie only then looked around and recognized it.
She locked herself up here?
"The first time I was locked up in it for two days and one night, do you know what it was like? Then I was imprisoned again, and you all forgot about me. I didn't eat or drink here, and no one paid attention to it. At that time, your daughter Xie Rouhui had already died here. ”
She looked at Mrs. Xie and shouted with hatred in her red eyes.
"You hurt me, you have killed me."
Mrs. Xie sat up hard.
"Did I hurt you?" She said, "Xie Rouhui." Locked in the tunnels. How did I harm you? If you can dance well. If you can complete the sacrifice that Dannu should do, how can you be locked up in the tunnel? ”
"You're the one who did it!" Xie Rouhui screamed, "Why didn't you kill her in the first place!" Why do you have to keep her! Kill her when you're born! Where would there be such a thing now! ”
Mrs. Xie couldn't hold back and fell back into bed. looked at Xie Rouhui.
"Therefore, you are where you are today, and it is all your own harm." She said, turning around and leaving.
"Xie Rouhui!" Mrs. Xie shouted.
Xie Rouhui stopped but didn't look back.
"Xie Rouhui, by negotiating terms and benefits with them, you will never be able to stand firm, only if you stand firm and irreplaceable, you can get everything you want." Mrs. Xie gritted her teeth and said.
Xie Rouhui raised her feet and walked up the steps step by step, hearing the creaking of the stone door, and there was silence inside and outside.
Was it really wrong at the beginning?
Mrs. Xie collapsed on the bed in a daze.
"Big lady, this is my sister..."
The little swaddling baby was held in front of him, and the newborn baby had been washed, and his wrinkled little face was trying to open his eyes.
Her hand held the brocade handkerchief and stretched it out, and her little face could be covered with one hand, covered...
The baby's nose was shaking and seemed to be playing with her.
Mrs. Xie closed her eyes and her hands drooped down.
How can you give it up, let's stay.
Is it really because of this child?
………………………………………………………
The elders of the Xie family were all there in the mansion, all with complicated expressions, and the room was full of people but silent.
Seeing Xie Rouhui walk in, Xie Wenxing was the first to stand up.
"You, you, you locked me up." He shouted, "I'm going to accompany your mother to recuperate!" ”
Xie Rouhui smiled.
"In that case, let's do what my father wants." She said, calling for someone.
The guards outside the door came in.
Xie Wenxing looked at the people in the room coldly and walked away.
"Why bother? He is different from the old lady, the old lady has never managed family affairs, and Wenxing has been in charge of the family industry for more than ten years. ”
"Yes, this incident has nothing to do with him, what should he do, why bother."
The old men in the room said one after another.
Xie Rouhui sneered.
Nothing to do with him? What to do?
Will he let him go?
He made a fuss to lock up with Mrs. Xie, but he was lucky enough to live a few more days, so he was not stupid.
Xie Rouhui walked over and saw Zhou Chengzhen.
Zhou Chengzhen sat on the chair, her posture seemed to have never changed, with a little impatience.
Seeing her come over, Zhou Chengzhen raised her eyebrows.
"What? Am I going to be closed too? He said.
The room was quiet again.
"You go back." Xie Rouhui said, "Don't talk nonsense. ”
"Say it earlier, it's a waste of my effort." Zhou Chengzhen said, standing up.
No one wants to stop him, he himself has to watch the excitement from the sidelines.
The crowd watched him swagger away.
"Huihui, although he said that he has lost the name of the prince, but his identity is here, and when the time comes, I am afraid that no one will be able to control him." Xie Cunli said in a low voice.
"What then? Uncle Tai, do you want to die with him? Xie Rouhui said.
Xie Cunli choked.
"How dare I." He sneered.
"Even if you dare to do it, I can't bear it. Isn't it just a son-in-law, it's not worth it. Xie Rouhui said with a smile.
Xie Cunli smiled and nodded.
"Megumi, it's good if you can think and see clearly." He complimented.
Xie Rouhui sat down in the main seat.
"It's been a ridiculous thing at home for a long time." "It's time to get the peace in order from now on." ”
Everyone sat down and nodded.
"I have no choice but to take over the responsibility from my mother just after I got married, and I hope that the elders will take more care of me." Xie Rouhui said.
"Miss, you are really humble."
"Miss, you're already very powerful."
Everyone laughed.
"I'm not modest." Xie Rouhui looked at them and said with a smile, "I'm so young, I still have to give birth to children." Therefore, it originally belonged to the three major sand mines and sixteen sand shops under the control of Gongzhong Dan. I'll take care of it for you for the time being. ”
She said this and placed a seal on the table.
I don't know if it's gold or jade, and the red seal looks more and more lush under the light because of age.
The old men in the room immediately stood up and looked at the seal with a burning expression.
Although there are many industries, each house has its own exclusive industry. But in the final analysis, they are all the sixteen lines of the three major mines in this gongzhong. They toiled and went. In addition to the benefits they have earned, more than half of them are owned by the public.
This seal is where the Xie family's huge wealth lies, where the lifeblood and power are. It is also natural that it is controlled by the Dan Lord, so the Dan Lord can also have the right of life and death over the personnel and finances of the Xie family.
But so what? She is the Lord of Dan, she is a great witch who is believed and admired by the people, who dares to rob her, unless she is willing to take it out.
The day has finally arrived! The Dan lord has changed, and the son-in-law is unreliable, so the only people the new Dan lord can rely on are their elders.
Xie Rouhui smiled as she looked at the joy of everyone in the room.
She had already said that she didn't care about any good dogs, as long as she knew the meat and bones, she could use them, wasn't it just some meat and bones, she didn't care about these.
As long as she can sit firmly in the position of this Dan girl, the position of the Dan master, what she throws out can be taken back.
The hustle and bustle in the hall spread out in the place where the Xie family gathered with the sights of countless prying eyes in the dark night.
Xie Wenchang, the second lord who was originally of high status, was expelled two or three times for disobeying Mrs. Xie and was deprived of the qualification to participate in family affairs, but he still knew what happened as soon as possible.
"Dad, what now? We can't tell the difference. The sons said with a look of anxiety and anxiety.
Xie Wenchang laughed.
"It's not that we can't tell the difference." "It's our chance!" he said. ”
Opportunity?
The sons looked at each other.
"Originally, the eldest lady didn't allow us, as long as she was ruthless and expelled our family, although others would feel cold, they would be more willing to divide our industry, but now it's different." Xie Wenchang said, "Xie Rouhui actually divided the financial power of the Dan Lord, and those mines have great benefits. ”
"What does that have to do with us, those mines can't give it to us." A son said.
Xie Wenchang looked at him and smiled.
"However, we can give greater benefits to those mines." He said, "We have your sister, a Xie Rouqing who can sacrifice to be able to point sand and solve mining difficulties." ”
The sons looked at each other suddenly.
"When those mines belonged to Mrs. Xie, she wouldn't care about these interests, so it wouldn't be a big deal to kill your sister in a hurry, and for others, those interests have nothing to do with them, and if they lose, they will lose, so even if the eldest lady persecuts our family, they don't care, but now it's different." Xie Wenchang said, in good spirits, "Those interests are theirs, Lord Dan doesn't care, they care, who can bring them great benefits, they care about whom." ”
"That person, apart from Lord Dan, only has a sister." The sons shouted.
But one jumped up and hesitated.
"If it's my sister, what if I can't compare to Xie Rouhui?" He whispered.
Xie Wenchang's expression changed, and he clenched his hands.
"So the life of our whole family is on your sister, if you can't compare, you will die, you can compare..." He gritted his teeth and said, his eyes shining, "Feng Shui takes turns, and it will be my turn Xie Wenchang in the Xie family's big house." ”
Big room!
If their sister replaces Dan Nu and replaces Lord Dan, then of course they will be able to replace Da Fang, and from then on, the Xie family will be the sky.
For a moment, there was silence in the room, only rapid panting.
"Who is watching your sister?"
"Quick, quick, send someone again!"
"Protect her no matter what!"

When the sun was shining on the top of the mountain, Xie Rouqing, who had been sitting on the mountain for a long time, took the crutches and sighed softly.
"Miss, why are you upset again?" Shui Ying on the rocks on the side asked.
"The trumpet is half as loud over there." Xie Rouqing said.
"Oh, Brother An said, a few mines stopped when the sand didn't come out." Shui Ying said, "So there are fewer people." ”
"The rest won't be long." Xie Rouqing said.
"That can't be helped." Shui Ying said.
Xie Rouqing glanced at the side of the mine and turned around.
"Let's go." She said, sat on the scalper on crutches, and walked slowly down the mountain with Shui Ying.
When he was about to reach the bottom of the mountain, Shui Ying suddenly sighed.
"Look, miss." She shouted, stretching out her hand to the mountain road, "Look, it's Miss Roujia here." ”
Xie Rouqing looked over and saw a red horse galloping on the mountain road, and the girl on it seemed to notice the sight here, raised her head, and gave a loud whistle.
The shrill whistle pierced the mountains, and An Geyu, who was carefully staring at the wall of a mine cave, also suddenly turned his head, and smiled on his originally worried face. (To be continued......)
