At the same time that the group of Wenjia Workshop began to interrogate the captured Hong family spies one by one, there was still a chaotic scene in the Hong family's mansion in Jiangnan.

On the main hall of the old family house, there are a large group of prestigious elders of the Hong family, several local teachers in Jiangnan Town, and many treasurers of the Hong family's property; Sitting in the main position, it was the young master of the long room, Hong Senyan.

The silence in the hall was terrifying, and everyone seemed to dare not breathe freely, and even the sound of breathing was suppressed. Every big man who was originally in the Hong family, and even in the entire Jiangnan Town, was either pale or expressionless, and the scene was easily misunderstood by unreasonable people as a group of ascetics meditating.

Finally, one of the elders sitting on the fifth hand side of Hong Senyan's left hand was the first to lose his breath. He was the first to attack:

"Strict, what is the situation of the head of the family? If he's safe and sound now, why doesn't he come out and preside over the big picture? Now our Hong family is in trouble, and the dragons are leaderless—to make matters worse! ”

"What the fifth brother said is reasonable, why doesn't the eldest brother come out to take charge?!" A rough middle-aged man on the right side of the young master of the long room chimed in, "Even if the eldest brother really doesn't plan to come out to hold this clan meeting, then we old brothers must be allowed to go in and have a visit to see the situation, right?!" ”

"Strict, what's the matter with you being so secretive?!"

The implication is very clear: Which green onion are you Hong Senyan?! When will it be your turn to be a talker?! We're talking to someone who can really make a decision!

Hong Senyan tried his best to suppress his anger. The elders of these clans rely on their seniority and seniority to be older than themselves, and when it comes to critical moments, they all jump out and are aggressive, they can't solve problems, and they are all good at fighting for power and profit!

"Elders, the juniors have already mentioned it before, my father is now in a sudden emergency and is unconscious, and the Lang Zhong are consulting inside, and they will naturally come out to give an explanation to the rank after a while!"

"Before my father wakes up, I, as the eldest son of the head of the family, temporarily act as the agent of all affairs inside and outside the Hong family on behalf of the long house! This is a rule passed down from our ancestors, what objections do you have? ”

As soon as the words fell, a scathing yin and yang weird voice sounded:

"It is true that our Hong family has such a rule handed down from our ancestors, but this rule also clearly says: the heir of the head of the family can only come out to temporarily exercise all the powers of the head of the family after the head of the family has made it clear that he cannot or does not want to serve as a director. But now it's different! From the chaos in the town to the accident of the head of the family, we as elders have been kept in the dark all the time, what happened, how serious the illness was, and whether the head of the family left instructions, none of these are known! In this way, how can we old guys rest assured that the power of the charge will be in your hands?! ”

This speaker was originally just the head of a partial house, but because he won the trust of Mrs. Hong back then, and his subordinates also happened to be in charge of the Hong family's land rent and loans, so the waist pole has always been very hard. This time, he also jumped out to follow the crowd and follow the other elders to sing against Hong Senyan.

"Ladies and gentlemen! It's not that the kid doesn't want you to go in to check and visit, it's really my father's illness that doesn't allow it! The Lang Zhong are still inside......"

"Put away your! Enough of the sprinkle family! The rough man just now suddenly went crazy, "It's been three hours since noon, it's dark, and you're still here pushing around!" What the hell do you mean?! To give me a happy word, do you want us to take a look at the head of the house?! ”

"Yes, we want to see the head of the house!" Uncle Biao's roar was like a starting gun, provoking a response from everyone in the chamber. At this moment, not to mention a high-ranking elder, even the middle and low-level deacons and housekeepers under the elders began to make noise:

"We want to see the head of the house!"

"What the hell is wrong with the head of the house?!"

"What are you trying to do with Hong Senyan stopping us like this? Yes?! Are you trying to usurp the throne?! ”

"Definitely! This yellow-mouthed child wants to take advantage of the fact that the head of the family can't be a director to take the position directly! ”

"Why?! It's true that the position of the head of the family is his, but he is not the head of the family now, why should he order us?! ”

"That's right! Why should we listen to him?! ”

"Open the door! We want to see the head of the house! ”

.......

The voices in the hall became more and more noisy, and the shouts became louder and louder, and there was a tendency to turn into a group fight in the Legislative Yuan of a certain island. Hong Senyan slammed the table with the hammer given by his father to no avail, and all kinds of doubts did not decrease but increased, like a rising tide to swallow him!

But he couldn't announce the dissolution of the meeting, let alone directly call the family to clear the scene—although he was the heir to the head of the family, his foundation in the Hong family was too shallow! When he was young, he always thought that as long as his father was there, he would definitely have what he wanted as the eldest young master and didn't have to worry about anything. But as soon as something happened this time, Hong Senyan realized how naïve and naïve he was before!

Since he does not have his own hardcore basic plate in the family, Hong Senyan has no way to control the situation on his own - as long as most of the family's force and financial resources are not in his hands, he is a weed without roots! It is not impossible to become the head of the house, but only if you have the support of most of the elders and senior deacons! In other words, he, Young Master Hong, must transition from commanding qi to looking up to people!

If that's the case, then it's better to kill him cleanly!

What's more, the more serious question is: if Hun Senyan can't come up with bargaining chips that can be exchanged and benefits that can be used to share fertilizer, who will support him? Who can support him?!

The reality is that without Hong Lianze, Hong Senyan is nothing!

.......

Just when the bitter Young Master Hong was struggling to try to save the situation, the town finally came.

An old man in a plain robe walked into the hall. Everyone was silent when they saw him coming, and the originally noisy hall immediately fell silent.

Nonsense, the armed forces of the main hall of the Hong family, the first worship of the Hong family, and the prestige of Zuo Lin, the first master of Jiangnan Province, who doesn't know, who doesn't know? !

I saw the old man Zuo Lin walking to the center of the hall without saying a word under the silent gaze of everyone:

"Keep arguing, why don't you make noise? Wasn't it quite lively just now? ”

No one had the guts to take his words.

"It's time for you, the pillars of the Hong family, the first thing you did was to quarrel! What an eye-opener for the old man! ”

"I shouldn't have put my beak in housework, but the situation is stronger than people! If you don't intervene again, the dignified Hong family and the largest family in the south of the Huanghuang Jiangnan are afraid that they will break up! ”

The old man with all white hair turned around: "The top priority now is nothing more than three things: first, save the head of the family; second, to fill the shortfall; Third, the Lan family! ”

Clean and crisp, without dragging mud and water, one sentence, three points, one final word!

The courage and deterrence of martial arts masters are terrifying!

"The medical officer continues to do his best to treat the head of the family, and the young master of the long house will temporarily take over the power of the head of the family from tonight until the head of the family wakes up, is there anything wrong with this?!"

"Could it be that Hong Senyan can't hold this power, and you big cats and kittens can handle it in two?!"

No one squeaked in the hall.

You're the most powerful, and you have a point in everything, right?

"As for the run on the bank, it is nothing more than a problem: there is not enough money! If you don't have enough money, give it to me! ”

Old man Zuo Lin's eyes became grim.

"Those who don't have clean hands and feet on weekdays, the head of the family turns a blind eye, as long as they are not too qualified. Not anymore! If you want to survive and keep the entire Hong family safe, all parties are ready to take money out! Take out how much is left in the family account, don't wait until the people of the entire Jiangnan Town are chasing your ass to ask for debts, and you will repent! ”

Everyone nodded yes.

"Speaking of the initiator of this chaotic situation, Jiangbei Lan's family......" A hint of murderous intent flashed in the eyes of the Hong family, "It's time to uproot them!" ”

"The scholars in each room are ready to use your old relationships with your relatives and friends to do only one thing: dress up the Lan family as a rebel in the court of the Southern Capital! Bring the imperial army to encircle and suppress! ”

"As for whether you can make up the story of the Lan family's rebellion more truly and credible, it depends on your ability!"
