Chapter Twenty-Nine, Internal Troubles (II)
Zhu Xiao knew very well that this was not a lofty ambition among the family, but as the family continued to grow, he naturally wanted to get more. However, with the experience of Nanliemen, Zhu Xiaokeshu didn't want his family to end up like that. Moreover, as Chun Xun has always said, the current Atayal Empire is not worth Zhu Xiao to fight for.
Stunned for a moment, Zhu Xiao said lightly: "Indeed, now the family is becoming stronger and stronger, and many forces around the family have also become stronger. At this time, everyone wants to get more, and they all want to have their own territory. Of course, there is nothing wrong with that. However, the current Zhu clan does not have such a strong strength to allow them to come to Hu, several elders, from now on, if there is still a certain force that is obsessed, then cut off all ties between the Zhu clan and it. ”
Hearing Zhu Xiao say this, everyone's faces couldn't help but change, and no one continued to speak for a while.
There are indeed many families surrounding the Zhu family now, and the reason why the Zhu family has such a strong strength is that these families are also indispensable. However, the few elders of the Zhu clan did not dare to disobey all the requests of these families too much, and many times, the few elders of the Zhu clan could only come from these families.
Zhu Xiao naturally understood the worries in the hearts of several elders, smiled slightly, and Zhu Xiao said very calmly: "Uncle Zhu Qing, you see, with the strength of my Zhu clan, I don't want the strength of other surnames at all, just this strength, in the entire Atayal Empire, what kind of height can we reach? If we don't have these families, can our strength still reach the Atayal Empire and become the most powerful family in the empire?"
Zhu Qing's favorite thing is cultivation, and for the others, Zhu Qing didn't care at all, but at that time, Zhu Xiao had no choice but to make Zhu Qing an elder of the family. However, Zhu Qing's status in the family is transcendent, and his strength is even stronger, and the Zhu family can have such a strong strength, and his contribution is even more remarkable.
Zhu thought about it for a long time, and then said: "With the current strength of my Zhu clan, aside from other families, the strength of my Zhu clan is not the most powerful in the empire. The Atayal clan has a rich heritage in the Atayal Empire, and it is not comparable to our Zhu clan. Of course, Patriarch, this does not include you, if ......"
Zhu Xiao didn't let Zhu Qing continue, but interrupted him and said directly: "Uncle Zhu Qing, there is no need to continue. It seems that the Zhu clan is not strong enough to be like that, strong enough to deter the Atayal clan. If we make a rash move at this time, not only will we not succeed, but we will lose ugly. ”
Zhu nodded lightly, and then said calmly: "Patriarch, I know!"
Zhu Qing's temperament, of course Zhu Xiao knew it clearly, he definitely didn't want to be involved, but Zhu Qing was just one of the elders, if the other elders wanted to do that, Zhu Qing would have no way at all.
Chun Xun had a thoughtful look on his face at this time, and after a while, he said lightly: "Zhu Xiao, if it is according to my thoughts, it is better to move some of your Zhu clan to other places, so as not to have any thoughts in everyone's hearts." It's better to follow what I said, and I will find a place for your Zhu clan in the family. Only in this way will your Zhu clan not be completely ruined. ”
Chunxun's words surprised everyone, but all the elders knew Chunxun's strong strength, so they didn't dare to take Chunxun now. Zhu Xiao shook his head and said, "This is impossible, the Zhu clan is still not strong enough now, if it is divided into two, then the entire family will decline." The decline of the family is something I don't want to see anyway. ”
Chun Xun stood up and said lightly: "The decline of the family is better than the destruction! Forget it, I won't delay you here, I'd better go to your family's martial arts arena to have a look!" With that, Chun Xun stood up and walked outside, and when he was about to walk out of the door of the council hall, Chun Xun said to Tang Zheng: "I don't know your family's path either, you can take me over." ”
Tang Zheng knew that it was no longer appropriate for him to stay, and it was precisely because of this that Chunxun stood up, Tang Zheng smiled, and then got up and left with Chunxun.
After Tang Zheng and the others left, Zhu Xiao's face also became a little ugly, and the atmosphere in the entire conference hall suddenly became very dull, and no one dared to speak easily, and after a while, Zhu Xiao said lightly: "What the hell is going on? Why have I only been away for so long, and the family has such internal worries." I thought that this external trouble could not be solved by the family, but now it seems that this internal worry is the most annoying thing that the family is facing now. ”
There was Chunxun before, and the elders of the family were not easy to say, at this time Chunxun had already left, and Zhu Lie said: "Patriarch, after you left before, with those exercises and martial arts you left behind, the strength of the family has improved relatively quickly. It is precisely because of the rapid improvement in strength that some families are now a little ready to move. I, the Zhu clan, are the leaders of these families...... There are many things that we can't do about it. ”
Zhu Xiao nodded, and then said lightly: "Now what level has the strength of the Zhu clan improved, and now there is not a single strong martial emperor in the family, so dare to say anything about improvement." "Zhu Xiao is indeed a little angry, now the Zhu clan is still very weak, but such a weak Zhu clan has begun to plot against the entire empire, from this point of view, the Zhu clan is not as good as the original Nanliemen.
"Now even if there are one or two powerhouses in the Martial Emperor realm in the family, the family will definitely not be able to defeat the Atayal family. The heritage of the Atayal family is not comparable to our Zhu family. Zhu Qing was very clear about the strength of the two clans, so he spoke bluntly at this time.
"Hahaha!" Zhu Xiao couldn't help laughing, and then asked lightly, "If the family has such a strong strength, do we still have to deal with the Atayal family?"
"This!"
Several elders couldn't help but be slightly startled, and they were dumbfounded for a while, and no one dared to speak again.
Seeing them like this, Zhu Xiao immediately got up from the chair, and then said lightly: "Even if our family is already several times stronger than the Atayal family, this kind of thought can't be had." The Atayal family is the royal family of the empire, which I, Zhu Xiao, have already admitted, and will always defend this royal family. ”
Several elders nodded at this time, Zhu Xiao's face was also relieved, and he said earnestly: "If I really want to fight for this Atayal Empire, I will not return to Yatai City after destroying the Nanlie Gate, at that time, all the major families listened to my orders, if we did it at that time, now our Zhu clan has become the royal family of the Atayal Empire." But what happens after becoming a royal family? Another Zhu clan will appear, and it will destroy my Zhu clan, the royal family. In this way, it is better to become a transcendent family, so that the family can grow rapidly and not die halfway. ”
As soon as Zhu Xiao said this, the elders of the family immediately knew what Zhu Xiao was thinking, and Zhu Lie also said a little tired at this time: "It's okay for the patriarch to decide like this, lest those families always think that my Zhu clan has a plan and come to persuade us to deal with the Atayal clan all day long." ”
Zhu Xiao doesn't want to know which family has such an idea now, but there must be many families with such an idea, and Zhu Xiao doesn't want those families to be stripped away because of this matter, so that the strength of the Zhu family will also be damaged.
After thinking about it for a while, Zhu Xiao sat back in his chair and said, "What do the elders think about this matter?
Today, Zhu Yong spoke relatively little, Zhu Yong thought for a while, and then spoke: "Patriarch, I think this time it's better to kill chickens and monkeys! These families just want our Zhu clan to take action instead of them, but with their current strength, where can they deal with the Atayal clan." If you don't have enough strength and want to get something that doesn't belong to you, you can only borrow other external forces. ”
Zhu Xiao nodded, whether it was Zhu Yong or Zhu Lie, the strength of both of them had been greatly improved, and more importantly, they were now fully qualified as the elders of the family. If it weren't for such internal worries in the family, Zhu Xiao would have wanted to hand over the position of patriarch of the family to one of the two of them when he returned to Yatai City this time. But now Zhu Xiao can't do that, now the two of them don't have that kind of deterrent power in the family after all, no matter who becomes the patriarch of the family, they have to do something against their will after that. For the sake of the family's longevity, Zhu Xiao can't do that yet.
"The family can't be an external force for them to use, if it is a last resort, it is better to destroy one or two of them. Zhu Yong is very clear about Zhu Xiao's personality, of course, this is also a method that Zhu Yong has been thinking about for a long time.
Zhu Lie had some scruples in his heart, and as soon as Zhu Yong's words fell, he continued: "It's better to destroy a family than to affect our family, this is a way." It's just that in this way, the other families are afraid that they will hate the Atayal family even more. In that case, I'm afraid things will get worse. Patriarch, I don't know what you think?"
"It's not impossible to destroy a family, but no matter which family you destroy, it's always bad. I think there are internal and external troubles this time, but it is better to let the internal worries solve the external troubles. In this way, it can not only deter those families who are ready to move, but also solve external problems. ”
