Chapter 1338: The Rites of the Hui Clan
In the Xia family, no one can be above the rules of the family, no one can be above the rules of the Xia family, Xia Wanqing can't, Xia Wushuang can't, even the real head of the family can't.
One of the most fundamental principles of the Xia family is that there are no rules, and there is no circle.
Everyone, you have to follow the rules!
Those who dare to trample on the rules have been cut into pieces and sent to feed the crocodiles.
Even Xia Wushuang, who thinks highly of himself, strictly abides by all the family rules of the Xia family, let alone Xia Wanqing.
Xia Wanqing stretched out her index finger and pointed at Xia Wanwan, and sneered, "You are pretending to be public and seeking personal interests, you think you can escape, not to mention the three sessions of the trial, or the Council of Elders, no matter how you try it, you are dead, you actually dare to make small moves in the contract and get your own name, now the evidence is conclusive, you wait for death, I am saving you." β
"Huh."
Xia Wanwan took a few breaths with difficulty, and after her full chest rose and fell for a while, she said weakly, "Fake public and private interests? Dare to ask, what benefits did I seek, did I get an extra penny? β
ββ¦β¦β
Xia Wanqing was stunned for a moment, and after thinking about it carefully, she found that Xia Wanwan did not share a penny, she did not seek any personal gain, and this crime really could not cure her.
"Do you want to say that I have harmed the interests of the Xia family, and what interests have I harmed the Xia family?"
ββ¦β¦β
These words made Xia Wanqing's eyes narrow.
She finally found out that Xia Wanwan did do something, but she was very smart and played the edge ball of the family rules, neither for personal gain nor against the interests of the Xia family.
Of course, that means that when she was alive, those contracts were normal contracts, and they didn't do any damage to the Xia family.
Well, there's a paradox here.
As long as Xia Wanwan is alive, she has not harmed the interests of the Xia family, you can't punish her, she strictly abides by the family rules, and she also does things for the Xia family.
Only after her death will the contract deteriorate, she will damage the interests of the Xia family, and you can only wait for her death before you can convict her.
But how can you be convicted when you are dead?
Why are you convicted of her when she is dead?
Therefore, Xia Wanwan is very clever here to make a little trick that Xia Wanqing can't do with her.
This made Xia Wan angry.
It made her feel like she had been bitten back by her own dog.
Xia Wanqing's face turned red, and she reprimanded angrily, "You think you're smart? Playing this trick with me, I won't be able to cure you? β
Xia Wanwan bit her lip and replied, "Isn't this all forced by you." β
If it weren't for Xia Wanqing to guard against her everywhere, she wouldn't do this.
The way a smart person does it is, even if I cheat you, I won't make you find any reason to blame me, let alone any excuse to punish me.
Xia Wanwan is undoubtedly a very smart woman.
While doing his best to Xia Wan's halal biography, he is also erudite and talented, good at learning, and integrates all kinds of knowledge.
Of course, her excellence is obvious to all, otherwise she would not have become the financial manager of the Xia family at a young age.
And the achievements she brought to Xia Wushuang are even more well-known,
Xia Wanqing thought about it carefully, and was stunned that she couldn't find any other place where she could make things difficult and openly judge Xia Wanwan, and Xia Wanwan did things without leakage.
For a while, the atmosphere in the room fell into a stalemate, and the needles on both sides were on the verge of breaking out at any time, and the fat left looked like it was none of my business, standing next to it, waiting to see a good show.
Then, at this moment, a maid came in from outside and reported to Xia Wanqing, "Young Master, please come over for a meeting. β
Xia Wanqing knew that this was to discuss the ceremony of Xia Xin's Hui clan, so she nodded, and then her eyes moved from Xia Wanwan to Xia Xin's body.
sneered, "You picked a time when you shouldn't have come and came to the Xia family, you are sending yourself to death, and you are too." β
Xia Wanqing glared at Xia Wanwan for the last time, left such an inexplicable word, and left quickly.
"When you shouldn't come?"
Xia Xin muttered quietly, not quite understanding what she meant.
Suddenly felt a weight in his arms, and found that Xia Wanwan had completely fallen down and fell into his arms.
Xia Wanwan leaned weakly on Xia Xin's arms, half-closed her eyes, and whispered an apology, "I'm sorry." β
"What stupid thing to say, it's me who should say I'm sorry."
Xia Xin didn't quite understand Xia Wanwan's physical condition, "What's wrong with your body, it's so hot?" How can I help you next? β
"It's useless."
Xia Wanwan shook her head gently.
The words she said were already inaudible, and she was already tired just by saying these few words.
Xia Wanwan put her face on Xia Xin's shoulder and whispered, "Listen to me, she...... The reason why she said that now is the most unsuitable time for you to come back is because ......"
The reason is very simple, Xia Ye killed the two elders of the Xia family before Xia Ye, which caused a lot of resentment on the Xia family's side, and naturally there were complaints about Xia Ye.
Moreover, there has been no summer night so far, and there is nowhere to vent my resentment.
Of course, everyone also understands that summer nights are artificial angels, which must be tricky.
At the same time, he will not have the slightest affection for Xia Xin, who used to be Xia Ye's brother.
It's not a secret, since the matter of artificial angels has made a big fuss and blew up the Xia family's private satellites, Xia Xin's summer night has naturally been found out, and it has already spread in the Xia family.
So, why doesn't anyone blame Xia Xin?
The reason is very simple, Xia Xin represents the lineage of the Xia family, no matter what he does, he is the descendant of the Xia family, and he also represents the entire Xia family.
You say that an artificial angel is Xia Xin's sister?
You are not defiling Xia Xin, you are defiling the entire Xia family's bloodline and insulting the entire Xia family.
Someone killed you on the spot, and that's as it should be.
How could the noble, pure, and proud blood of the Xia family have anything to do with dirty, bloody, and rancid artificial angels.
If you investigate deeply, this is equivalent to saying that the descendants of the Xia family, the descendants of the Xia family, and even the head of the previous generation are inextricably linked to artificial angels.
Therefore, even Xia Wushuang didn't dare to risk this big taboo and tie Xia Xin and Xia Ye together.
A smart person will know how to judge the situation.
There are some things that people know but don't say.
Then, just when Xia Ye killed the two elders of the Xia family, Xia Xin came to the Xia family.
Naturally, the Xia family didn't have a good impression of him.
Originally, the elders didn't support Xia Wushuang very much, they were afraid that he would be the only one, if Xia Xin came earlier, it would not be surprising that at least half of the elders would support him, how to say, he was also the invincible Night Emperor, the son of Xia Jianxing, there would be someone who supported him to fight against Xia Wushuang, and not let Xia Wushuang be alone.
In this way, the status of the elders themselves will be more important, and the same will be true for the backbone below.
In short, this involves some infighting over the distribution of power, as well as checks and balances between them.
And Xia Xin is coming now, it's not a good thing, even if it's early, late, but he has to come over in everyone's resentment, and come over when the things of the summer night are not dealt with well,
Therefore, Xia Wanqing said that he came at the wrong time.
When he comes now, he will have to bear the resentment and anger in the hearts of a large part of the people.
Hearing this, Xia Xin finally understood why those subordinates seemed to have opinions about themselves, and the elders seemed to have opinions about themselves.
Because of the summer night, he is very unflattering now.
It is equivalent to giving everyone an outlet for resentment, even if people have no enmity with him.
"There are five kinds of Hui rituals, big merit, small merit, Qi Si, beheading, and Tianlu."
Leaving the Xia family will not let you come back easily, big merit, small merit, are relatively simple rituals, and they can be regarded as a ceremony to welcome back, usually for the supreme heir of the Xia family, you can do it a little, at most, it is rooted in incense, two knives on your hand to drip blood, or shave your hair or something, endure it and pass, there is no danger.
Originally, Xia Xin was supposed to be these two ceremonies.
And then it will be difficult for Qi Si later, and his life is already in danger, because the Xia family is not very welcoming to those who leave, and those who leave want to come back must withstand the harsh test and prove your value to the Xia family.
Beheading is completely a ritual for sinners who have left the Xia family, this ritual is to kill the sinners, to kill this ritual that betrayed the Xia family and wanted to come back.
And the last Tianlu, that is completely your life, the ritual of nine deaths and a lifetime, only with the blessing of God, you can survive, so it is called Tianlu, which proves that you are the chosen son.
No one can survive under Tianlu.
In this regard, Xia Xin's thoughts were, "Why is it so troublesome to go home, and I am not allowed to visit my grandparents?" β
"It's usually fine, but there are exceptions."
Xia Wanwan said in a weak tone, "Beheading is a Hui ritual set up for a traitor to the Xia family, it shouldn't be used on you, and you haven't done anything like a traitor, let alone Tianlu, just opening this ritual is very troublesome, no one has ever been able to survive under Tianlu, so I think it should be a ritual of Qi Si for you, and it is also life-threatening." β
"Alas," Xia Xin couldn't help but sigh, "Why can't everyone be harmonious, do you have to fight to the death, ordinary people go home to visit their deceased grandparents, is it so troublesome?" β
"I'm sorry!"
Xia Wanwan apologized again in a low voice.
However, she was still too naΓ―ve.
Because, in the conference room at this time, Xia Wushuang stood up, looked at the elders with a smile and said, "Since everyone has no opinion, then let's start the voting ceremony for beheading?" β
