Chapter 419: Money Can Make Ghosts Grind (Chapter 2)

The inner courtyard of the Li family in the capital.

The atmosphere in the council hall was solemn, everyone's faces were as black as ink buckets, and their eyes exuded a kind of anger, as if anyone who added fuel to the fire and provoked him would explode on the spot.

The person sitting in the center is none other than Li Hongzhou, the current head of the Li family.

I saw that he sighed, glanced up at the surroundings, and asked, "Although the Li family lost face in this marriage robbery incident, is it too much of a fuss to sacrifice a chase and kill order to Lin Fei just because of this?"

Although Li Hongzhou is the head of the family, he does not have the absolute right to speak in the Li family, because in addition to him, there are six members of the council sitting in the Li family's council.

According to the Li family rules, whenever the family encounters a major event, the council must convene a general meeting, and any decision made must be approved by more than half of the members of the council before it can be passed, otherwise it will be invalid.

After Lin Fei's marriage robbery incident last night, it immediately caused a sensation in the entire capital, in addition to Lin Fei and Luo Yun becoming news figures, the Li family, who was robbed of marriage, also became the object of ridicule, and the image that has been painstakingly managed for many years has come to the point of collapse in one day.

Therefore, the council convened an emergency meeting, and at the suggestion of Li Hongyong, the second leader, Li Hongzhou's younger brother, the resolution of the order to hunt and kill Lin Fei was passed with four votes in favor and three votes against.

Li Hongzhou was one of the three people who voted against it, and it can be said that this was not his intention, but he was powerless to stop it.

"Big brother, what is being discussed at this meeting now is not the issue of the Jianghu Chase and Kill Order, how can you, as the head of the family, be so unaware of the overall situation? What's more, I think the Jianghu Chase and Kill Order is reasonable, and there is no problem at all!" Li Hongyong was full of words, and his face was sad and indignant, as if he was the head of the Li family.

In fact, Li Hongzhou has always known that his younger brother has always coveted the position of head of the family for a long time, but he does not dare to make a move because Li Hongzhou's forces are still there, but whenever the family encounters a major event, Li Hongyong's performance is the most active and active.

The reason why he is so active is nothing more than to prove to other council members that he, Li Hongyong, is the person who cares most about the development of the Li family, and he is the most suitable person for the head of the Li family.

However, Li Hongzhou took a blind eye to all this, after all, thinking of flesh and blood affection, he didn't want the Li family to fight endlessly and affect unity.

However, Li Hongzhou's painstaking efforts are often only something that he can understand, and it is precisely because of his alternative connivance that Li Hongyong is now becoming more and more bold, and he is less and less concerned about him as the head of the family when he speaks and acts.

"That's right, family master, I support the second master this time, if we allow others to trample on the dignity of our Li family, then will the Li family still need to gain a foothold in the capital in the future?" Li Guodong, one of the members of the council, said in a heartfelt manner, he is Li Hongzhou's cousin, although his status is low, but he is fierce and scheming.

"Family master, I'm sorry, I really can't support you this time, because what the second master said is what we are talking about. Li Guochun, one of the members of the council, another cousin of Li Hongzhou, was resourceful and one of the few "military advisors" in the council.

In addition, other members of the council who had previously voted in favor of the Jianghu chase order also spoke one after another to echo Li Hongyong.

The members who voted against it frowned and did not interrupt their speeches, but all set their hopes on Li Hongzhou, hoping that he would be able to turn the tide and change the situation that was getting out of control.

It's a pity that it is destined to disappoint them.

Li Hongzhou sighed and said: "The minority obeys the majority, since you all agree, I have nothing to say, but I still adhere to my previous opinion, Lin Fei is by no means an idle person, and the order to hunt him down will only force him to resist with all his might, which is absolutely useless for our Li family......"

"Enough, big brother, when is it now, you still continue to grow up with other people's morale to destroy your own prestige, should we talk about how to arrange this meeting so that Lin Fei can be captured?" Li Hongyong rudely interrupted Li Hongzhou's words and said loudly.

"Presumptuous, Hong Yong, how can you talk to the head of the family like this? Don't you forget, he is the head of our Li family, the representative of our Li family, and he is in his position to seek his own government, do you know?" One of the members of the council, Li Hongzhou's only surviving uncle Li Quan, was one of the three people who voted against it.

"Second uncle, you ......"

Li Hong's face was so brave that his face was bruised, and his fists were clenched like mountains, but he did not dare to scold him, otherwise he would be charged with the following crimes and disrespecting the elderly.

Seeing this, Li Hongzhou was about to make a statement, but suddenly the bell in the hall rang, and everyone's faces changed.

According to the regulations of the council hall, no disturbance is allowed during the meeting, and unless there is an emergency, it will be punished according to the rules of the Li family.

Now it seems that the bell is ringing non-stop, it doesn't look like a prank, it should really be an accident, Li Hongzhou's face sank, and after first saying to everyone that the meeting was suspended, he walked quickly towards the door.

The others looked at each other, and soon did not linger in the council chamber for a long time, and walked out of the chamber one after another, they also wanted to see what was going on outside.

As soon as Li Hongzhou walked to the living room of the inner courtyard, he saw a familiar shadow, which was Luo Yun.

A gray-haired old housekeeper in the family approached anxiously and said, "The head of the family, it's all my fault, I didn't hold her, so I let her move the bell switch......

"It's okay, Lao Feng, you can step back first!" Li Hongzhou interrupted the butler Lao Feng's words, and then after Lao Feng stepped back, he looked at Luo Yun and asked in a deep voice, "What are you still doing here?"

"How can this be reasonable, you cheap woman, not only ran away from marriage and went with others, but also made our Li family a laughing stock in the capital, and trapped our Li family in a dangerous situation, and now you still have the face to come?

Li Hongyong was the first to follow, and as soon as he saw Luo Yun, he immediately became angry, and waved his hand to go over to beat Luo Yun.

Luo Yun's face flashed with panic, but he quickly returned to normal, and showed an extremely firm look, met Li Hongyong's fierce gaze, and said: "A thousand mistakes, they are all my fault, if you kill me to make you angry, then please, I will never resist!"

"Resistance? It depends on whether you have the ability to do it!"

Li Hongyong laughed fiercely, the person had already walked up to Luo Yun, and the hand he picked up immediately turned into a hand knife, and he was about to slash down in the direction of Luo Yun's neck.

"Hong Yong, stop......"

Li Hongzhou was shocked when he saw this, his younger brother had a tyrannical personality, treated men and women equally, and the consensus of all men in the world not to beat women had no effect on him, so he shouted loudly at the first time.

But, it's still too late.

"Hey, bitch, die!"

Li Hongyong smiled playfully, his eyes full of cruelty......

Seeing that Luo Yun was about to be hit by Li Hongyong's hand knife, suddenly a grim voice sounded out of thin air.

"Men who beat women should be damned!"
