"What does he have to look down on me, didn't he send troops either."

Xu Mujiang said in an indifferent tone:

"Or are you just going to punish me, the head of the family, today, and let the third brother go for the time being?"

"Alas, when the whole family needs to share the ups and downs, and he does not come, then he should be punished." Xu Muhe sighed lightly and said seriously: "But the elder brother is different from the third brother, you are the head of the family, and if you don't come to support, you can be said to be afraid, what is the matter with betraying your own nephew and taking refuge in the Tartars?" ”

Xu Mujiang raised his head sharply and looked at Xu Muhe.

He asked tremblingly, "Old ...... Xu, has it fallen into your hands?" ”

"The Tartar gave him to the third brother and provoked him to come and beat you." Xu Muhe replied: "It seems that the Tartar prefers to accept Shiyang, but the third brother knows the overall situation better than the elder brother." ”

"See the big picture?" Xu Mujiang repeated this sentence softly.

"Know the big picture!? Xu Muhe, you dare to talk about the overall situation! The head of the Xu family jumped up from the chair suddenly, pointed at Xu Muhe's nose and shouted: "I want to surrender Tartar because I don't know the overall situation?" So what are you? Ten years ago, you didn't want to ...... too"

"Uncle!" Xu Shiyang burst out and interrupted Xu Mujiang's shouting: "Old man Xu is outside the door, he is certain to die, do you want to go with him?" ”

Xu Mujiang was stunned, he looked at Xu Shiyang in a daze, and couldn't say a word.

"Uncle has been in charge of the Xu family for so many years, and he is tired."

Xu Shiyang stood up, walked to the middle of the Tang Dynasty, ignored everyone's strange eyes, and announced loudly:

"Please go to the Dinglin Temple of Fulai Mountain to recuperate. The Xu family will ask the second master to preside over the overall situation in the future. ”

"Nowadays, our family is no longer threatened by bandits, the cultivated land area can be expanded, and the distance between the forts is not so far, so when the third uncle comes, the nearest one, two and three tuns will be merged into a new one, and they will be unified under the control of the new family master."

"Situn, Wutun, and Liutun were merged into the new second tun, and they were unified under the control of my eldest brother Xu Shisong."

"Seven Tun and Eight Tun were merged into the third Tun, and the lord of the fort, Luan Tingyu; Nine tun, ten tun for the fourth tun, the castle lord Sun Li; The eleventh to fifteenth tun is the fifth tun, which belongs to me. The three original bandit cottages on Fulai Mountain were merged into the sixth tun and were under the control of the third uncle. ”

Xu Shiyang talked eloquently, and the more Xu Mujiang and Xu Shiliu listened to it, the more ugly their faces became.

The young man in front of him, like the real head of the family, ignored the opinion of the eldest master in the absence of the third master of the Xu family, and redivided the sphere of influence of the entire Xu family in a few words!

According to what he said, the second room of the Xu family not only got the position of the head of the family, but also took away 12 of the original 15 dock forts!

Not to mention that the third master was isolated on the Fulai Mountain where the soil was weak, the eldest master and Xu Shibai, who originally controlled the 11 tuns, simply had nothing! And they were also designated to live in Jorinji Temple!

It's like house arrest!

"Hehe, let outsiders see this scene, and think that the Xu family is already Xu Shiyang as the head of the family." Xu Mujiang sneered and said, "Second brother, the head of the family, what do you mean by being the head of the family?" ”

"Big brother, we're getting old." Xu Muhe replied in a flat tone: "It's not okay to be unconvinced, if Shiyang can support this family, it will be nothing to put the Xu family in charge of him in the future, anyway, sooner or later it will have to be given to the children." ”

Xu Mujiang was choked by Xu Muhe's indifferent attitude.

Well, of course it doesn't matter if the second room is located, anyway, Xu Shiyang is also his biological son, and Xu Shiliu is going to Jiangnan to study, and the two are not in competition.

"Big brother!"

Xu Mujiang had nothing to say, but Xu Shibai still wanted to struggle, he shouted at Xu Shisong: "You just watched the second room divide up our family's property?" ”

"It's all from the Xu family." Xu Shisong replied lightly: "What's more, ......, this is also self-inflicted." ”

"You! You traitor! Xu Shibai's eyes were red, and he wanted to rush up angrily and grab Xu Shisong's collar.

Xu Shiyang took two steps forward, pressed his shoulders with both hands, and pressed him back to his seat with a little force.

Xu Shiyang is tall and strong, he has always paid great attention to exercise, not to mention, and often rushes to the front line, his strength is not comparable to Xu Shibai, the latter scolded and struggled for a long time, but still couldn't leave the chair an inch.

"What are you going to do!? Let him go! Xu Mujiang got up and wanted to help his son, but was stopped by Xu Shisong and Xu Shiliu.

"Second brother, who is the traitor, you don't know in your own heart?" Xu Shiyang didn't pay attention to his uncle, but said coldly to Xu Shiliu, who was still struggling: "You are still young, do you want to go on forever?" ”

Xu Shiliu stopped.

Listen to this, he still has a chance?

"Wait a minute, I'll bring Lao Xu in." Xu Shiyang said: "Second brother, you killed him with your own hands, which proves that you did not betray." ”

"Then let's go to the eldest brother's castle and help him do something."

"When the Xu family's sphere of influence expands a little more, second brother, you still have a chance to take charge of one side again."

"Expand a little more?" Xu Shiliu subconsciously asked: "When will it expand again?" ”

"Second brother!" Xu Mujiang shouted angrily: "Don't be ashamed!" ”

In the eyes of the former head of the family, his second son's sentence is simply an official fan, in order to order the leftovers of the second room, he wags his tail and begs for mercy to Xu Shiyang's younger brother, which is extremely embarrassing!

"Soon." Xu Shiyang said with a smile: "It was not only ...... who surrendered to the Tartars, but also the Fan family in Juzhou City. ”

"As one of the six alliances, it's okay if they don't come to support, but they want to betray their friends for glory and break the covenant, this matter cannot be spared!"

"After all, our Xu family is not prosperous, if the second brother behaves well, it will not be impossible to take charge of the county seat at that time."

After the Fulai Mountain bandits were wiped out, and the Fan family joined the alliance of the six families, the Fan family, who originally only occupied half of the county seat of Juzhou, had expanded the scope of strength to the entire old county town during this time, and in terms of area, it was higher than the sum of the two dock forts of the original Xu family, and slightly lower than the appearance of the three dock forts.

If Xu Shiliu can really take charge of the Fan family, even if he hands over 11 tuns, his strength will increase, and it will increase a lot.

Xu Shiliu turned his head slightly and looked at his father.

Xu Mujiang's expression was complicated, he knew what his son was thinking, Xu Shiliu was still young, he was just in his twenties, of course he couldn't bear to spend his life in the ancient temple, he needed a chance.

"Hey......."

Xu Mujiang sighed helplessly.

Old man Xu has been a scholar for him since he was a child, and when he grew up, he followed him as a housekeeper, and he was loyal all his life, so he was given the surname Xu.

But now that it's like this, I can't say that I can't use him for the last time.

After all, even if Xu Mujiang doesn't think about himself, he has to think about his son.

What's more, he has a younger son, Xu Shizhen, who is ranked fourth in the world, and he is almost an adult, so he should have planned to arrange a dock fort for him this year.

If you don't kill Steward Xu, the fourth brother will never have a chance in the future.

Xu Mujiang sat back in his chair, lowered his head, and never said a word again.
