The Yang clan agreed on the thirteenth day of the first month, but this is far less meaningful for the people of Xizhou than the fifteenth day of the first month - the fifteenth day of the first month is the Lantern Festival, you can not only put the river lantern to make a wish, but also to enjoy the lantern riddles, in addition to the young descendants to the elders to draw a festive atmosphere, but also look forward to those who stay at home on weekdays, raised in the deep boudoir compound in the famous lady staged such a scene called the encounter, just so one night of hibiscus tent warm, spring night gold, the future life may be "steady steps, Fame and fortune are added".

Some people want to be auspicious, some people want to have an affair, some people tarnish their reputation and future, and some people can't help but be butchers.

According to Yang Wu's meaning, the clan discussion starts on the thirteenth day of the first month, and the affairs within the clan must be arranged before the fifteenth day of the first month at the latest. Even if the New Year is over, some people should go on the road, and some people should stay.

"Uncle, city lord......" Although Yang Xian is usually a high-flying and domineering person in the army, but at this moment, he is honest and careful like a kitten in front of his uncle Yang Jun, as soon as he opened his mouth, he saw Yang Jun's slightly closed eyes emitting a terrifying cold glow, and hurriedly changed his words: "Yang Wu summoned you and all the uncles here so urgently, could it be that he has already noticed our actions?" ”

"What? Does he already know? The person who said this was originally sitting on top with Yang Jun on the left and right, but when he heard Yang Wu's guess that he already knew the plan, he was so shocked that he immediately got up from his chair and said angrily: "How did he know? Who's the snitch? ”

"Old Five, be quiet!" Yang Jun frowned slightly and said in a low voice.

Hum! Tu Baozi, if I didn't need the vote in your hand, why would I have allowed you so many benefits and pulled you to be a comrade-in-arms! Yang Jun thought dissatisfiedly.

"Yes, father, now it's just a guess, it's not really like that...... You're so loud, I'm afraid that if you leak the news first, you will also ...... It also comes from you. Yang Rui also reminded on the side.

"Haha! Yes, am I too anxious, or is the second brother looking at things clearly......" Yang Min smiled embarrassedly and scratched his bald head as he sat down again.

"Don't worry about it." Seeing that the other party was quite knowledgeable, Yang Jun took off the black snow fox fur felt hat he was wearing, his slender fingers turned into a comb and combed his hair, and put the hat back on, before he said: "Although he didn't say anything about the content of this clan discussion, everyone also knew that it was for the patriarch election in half a year, since it was such a major event related to the fate of the clan as the election of the patriarch, let's discuss one or two in advance, it is also a normal thing, even if he Yang Wu knows, we are still afraid that he will not succeed- Now is not the time for the old man to be around! ”

Thinking of the old man, Yang Jun's heart trembled - his only son was killed by that old man. Yang Jun remembered this, took off his hat again, and gently wiped the dust off the hat in his hand.

Snow fox is a species that only exists in the north of Beidi, not to mention the scarcity, and the action is extremely agile, even if the so-called masters of the Jianghu people go to catch it in person, they often take advantage of the excitement and return in defeat. This makes the snow fox's value have a higher starting point, coupled with its pure white coat, the leather made of it has an unexpected warmth effect, once it is on the market, it has been sought after by dignitaries, and has become a decorative object for young ladies to show off their status and satisfy their vanity.

Yang Jun has been in the snow fox business for more than 20 years, and ten years ago, this business was in charge of his only son Yang Yuanlie - and it is precisely because of this that when Yang Yuanlie saw a black snow fox appear in front of him, he was determined to get this snow fox in his hands and give it to his father as a gift for his 60th birthday.

Then, the black snow fox was in his hands, and when Yang Jun received the felt hat from his only son on the day of his birthday, he was lying on the corpse of Yang Yuanlie placed in the center of the Shoutang and crying with grief.

After that, Yang Jun heard that it was Yang Yuanlie who killed the other party when he was competing with the local hunters for the black fox, and happened to be seen by Huang Fu Er who was in a hurry, and when Huang Fu Er finished his work and was about to return, he happened to meet Yang Yuanlie again, so he killed him on the spot.

Huang Fu felt that it was just a small matter of sesame seeds, so Yang Wu did not know about this matter - but not knowing about it did not mean that he could stay out of it.

The father's debt is repaid, and the trouble caused by your own husband should naturally be repaid as a student!

Thinking of this, Yang Jun's eyes were cold again.

"You said Wu Hui was rescued?" As if suddenly remembering such a thing, Yang Jun asked Yang Xian, who had been standing aside with his head down.

"Yes, if I'm not mistaken, I was rescued the day before the clan council was convened." Yang Xian didn't understand why he talked about Wu Hui again, but although he had doubts in his heart, he didn't dare to ask.

"Yang Wu and you are the same generation, if you say that you are older, it is only a few years older, how can he stand in front of me when he can stand up to me, you stand in front of me clearly have doubts but still don't dare to squeak?" Seeing Yang Xian's reluctant appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Yang Jun asked sarcastically.

"Please forgive the second uncle (uncle)!" When Yang Rui and Yang Xian heard this, they were all shocked, and they knelt down on their knees.

"And in the end? Did you catch it back? Ignoring the kneeling two, Yang Jun continued to ask.

"No, Yang Wu went out alone and came back alone." Yang Rui responded.

"Maybe he killed Wu Hui directly outside......" Yang Xian thought about it and gave his guess.

"Slash? Hmph......" chuckled, Yang Jun asked rhetorically, "With the Yang Wu you know, will he kill his master's favorite disciple?" Taking a step back, even if he dared to do this, how could he disregard the friendship of his fellow disciples and abandon the corpses of his own junior disciples in the wilderness? ”

"This ...... Maybe he didn't catch up. Yang Xian's face turned red and put forward another set of speculations.

"I heard that Yang Wu's swordsmanship realm is high and Wu Hui has more than one realm, how can he not catch up? Besides, I really haven't heard of anyone in this world who is stronger than Yang Wu. Seeing that Yang Xian was speechless, Yang Jun snorted coldly and said to the two: "Stand up!" ”

"So, with the second brother's guess, why did Yang Wu go alone and go back alone?" Seeing that Yang Jun's anger subsided slightly, Yang Min slightly narrowed his eyes and motioned for the two to stop talking, and asked first.

"It's unbelievable though...... I think Yang Wu is injured. After hesitating in his heart, Yang Jun finally decided that it was better to tell the guess first.

"How so?" When he first heard this, Yang Min thought that he had heard it wrong, but at this time, if either Yang Rui or Yang Xian said this, he would definitely not hesitate to slap him twice and scold a few words of "his brain is broken" before listening to the reason.

At this time, Yang Rui and Yang Xian were also full of incredulity when they heard this.

"Uncle, you just said that there are people who are stronger than Yang Wu in this world......" Yang Xian didn't understand in his heart, why he said it was full of nonsense, and it was a big truth to say it through Yang Jun's mouth?

"I said I haven't heard of it, it doesn't mean I haven't ......" Sighing lowly, Yang Jun didn't blame anything, but stood up with a smile and paced two steps.

"Isn't it good that Yang Wu is injured? None of us would dare to challenge him head-on......" Yang Min asked excitedly.

"I hope so!" Although he was also excited in his heart, Yang Jun was not the kind of person who got carried away, and if he couldn't see the final result, his nerves would collapse until the end.

"The Great Elder's ......" solved Yang Wu's problem, and Yang Min mentioned Yang Duan, who was full of love in the City Lord's Mansion at the moment.

"It's okay!" Yang Jun waved his hand and said, "The Great Elder is highly respected, but in recent years, he knows the least about the younger generation below, and his prestige among the younger generation is not as good as ours old guys...... As long as we insist on electing a younger and stronger person this time, no matter how much he supports Yang Wu, it will be in vain. Besides, if it was the Great Elder before, I still had some scruples—now, but it is not a problem that we need to think about too much. ”

Speaking of this, Yang Jun turned to look at Yang Xian and said, "Originally, you were not the most suitable person, but for your obedient sake, you will take Yang Wu's position for the time being!" ”

"Uncle Xie!" When Yang Xian heard this, he first kowtowed to Yang Jun twice, then turned to Yang Min, and said after kowtowing: "Thank you, Uncle Five!" ”

"Haha! You're welcome, your generation will be headed by you in the future, and Yang Rui also needs you to take care of it often! Yang Min accepted this kneeling with peace of mind, and did not forget to pull his son over to recommend it.

"Congratulations brother!" Yang Rui stepped forward and said: "Brother will be the spokesperson of our clan in the future, if you can use the younger brother, the younger brother is absolutely duty-bound!" ”

"I am in the army with Brother Yang Rui, and I have a very good relationship, don't worry!" Yang Xian assured.

Hearing his promise, the three people present were all dissatisfied, but they didn't pay attention to the wisp of resentment that flashed in Yang Xian's eyes when he glanced at Yang Jun.

"Right now, you, me, plus Jiangcheng, Acropolis, and Ancheng, already have five votes in hand, and the remaining five votes are held in the hands of Yang Duan's Pingcheng, Yang Wu's Xizhou City, and Xinshui City, Xiangshui City, and Sifang City, Pingcheng and Xizhou City don't need to be considered at all, and Sifang City has always been close to Yang Duan, so there is basically no need to think about it - therefore, we must take down Xinshui and Xiangshui before tomorrow's clan meeting, so as to ensure that nothing goes wrong!"

The rule for electing a patriarch in the clan is that there must be no less than seven votes in favor, and after a brief analysis of the current situation, Yang Jun immediately instructed Yang Rui to invite the elders of Xinshui and Xiangshui to come over and discuss the matter.

After just a moment, Yang Rui returned empty-handed.

"What's wrong? They don't want to? Yang Min lost his temper and immediately said angrily: "You useless thing!" ”

"It's not that I don't agree...... Yang Rui was not angry, but looked at Yang Jun with a little worry, and only after he nodded in agreement did he continue: "Early this morning, the elders of the two cities went to the city by the great elders, and they have not returned yet. ”

"What?" When Yang Min heard this, he hurriedly asked Yang Jun, "What should I do?" Now, if they say it's moved, we won't have enough tickets in our hands! ”

"Not necessarily." Different from Yang Min's anxiety, Yang Jun still remained calm at this time, "Xiangshui and Xinshui are originally one family, and they both have an entangled relationship with the extermination of the Yang Wu clan back then, so they won't be so easily persuaded - according to me, it's good if the two families don't fall out with Yang Wu, how can they support Yang Wu in such a matter as choosing a patriarch!" ”
