Chapter 11 I just want to say......
Can you do it?
This was the question that Xie Mingwen wanted to ask most at the moment, and he couldn't help but think of what Gu Dongping had said when he told him to do this and this yesterday.
What Gu Dongping asked him to do was too decisive, and he subconsciously wanted to deny it at that time, but Gu Dongping threw out a sentence like this, "The Xie family is not left to death, can you live?"
The problem of the Xie family is simple to say, it is a problem of top combat power, as one of the four major lords, the Xie family has no shortage of influence, even if the Xie family still has a very loud voice in the empire now, and the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, but the attention of the Xie family is the top handful of the empire.
The reason why the people who regard the Xie family as fat meat don't eat it is all because the Xie family is still the pillar of the empire, and the family gate valve is still the ruling class of the empire, and swallowing the Xie family will cause turmoil in the empire, which is something that the Qing Emperor does not allow to happen.
That's why the Xie family can live.
But as long as the Xie family does not get rid of the fat label for a day, they will eventually die, so they can only draw salary from the bottom of the kettle. And with Gu Dongping's assistance, the Xie family can at least guarantee that the fire can be preserved.
The face of the second elder sitting beside him changed, and he didn't smile, "Everyone knows that the extreme realm is difficult to climb, so the extreme realm is precious." The head of the family is so arrogant, my Xie family has passed on the torch, and the family's prominence comes from military exploits, as long as my Xie family is still one of the four major lords, I dare not do it even if I am strong in the extreme realm. I think the head of the family is scared and has a mental problem. ”
He no longer had the slightest respect in his words, and directly fought in close quarters, "The head of the family might as well abdicate today, it is better than the Xie family going to ruin in your hands." ”
As soon as these words came out, the whisperers stopped talking, and those who had been keeping their heads down also raised their heads, but these people were only a minority.
A large number of people looked unfazed.
Xie Mingwen glanced at it and knew that these people had colluded, and a chill rose in his heart, followed by anger, "No matter what decision I make, I am the head of the Xie family at the moment, and I have the right to make decisions in major matters, and the old ancestor supports me, second elder, you are always the second elder, you have to remember your identity." ”
"Identity?" the second elder snorted coldly, glanced left and right, and many people laughed with him. A ray of sunlight just shone on his face, and his smile was bright, and his teeth shone like jewels.
"The head of the family is your elder in terms of seniority, and I am not on par with you in terms of strength, as for the ancestors, they are old after all, and the old people will inevitably be confused, I think you bewitched them. You ask now, will you see if the ancestor will agree to you?"
The second elder leaned over and stared at Xie Mingwen, as if he wanted to swallow him.
"I'll ask you now, how many people do you say yes. The second elder coughed, and there was a neat applause. The applause disappeared, and the second elder looked at Xie Mingwen with pity, pouting and saying.
"See, I didn't collude, I didn't collude. I just said hello to them beforehand. The bet is that you go all the way to the dark, but I didn't expect you to really not hit the south wall and never look back. Okay, I want to ask you, okay?"
After saying that, he leaned back, "But I won't hurt you, you will have a comfortable place to live and do what you want, but the long house is going to change." ”
Xie Mingwen also smiled, and his smile made the second elder suddenly have a bad premonition in his heart.
"Be careful!" Suddenly, he heard someone around him remind him that the second elder's strength was not weak, and he reacted in an instant, and threw himself to the front, and there was one more person in the seat he was in.
The person who came was personable and well-dressed, and it was Chang Lin. Chang Lin looked at Xie Mingwen, who was smiling bitterly, and laughed, and was shocked to find a person suddenly appearing in the conference room, all of them were shocked, some people were thieves, thinking that it was a bureau set up by Xie Mingwen, and they couldn't control themselves for a while and were about to run outside.
But seeing Chang Lin sneering at Xie Mingwen, these elders didn't understand that the person who suddenly appeared must have been called by him.
The few people who were about to run out of the room didn't calm down anymore, and said angrily, "Xie Mingwen, the highest meeting of the family, you actually brought an outsider here, your heart can be punished, you are not worthy of being the head of the Xie family!"
Several other people were also yelling, and the second elder, who had reacted, turned around with a flushed face, and he didn't question Xie Mingwen, but pointed at the person who appeared.
It's just that as soon as he saw the face of the person who came, the handsome young face, he swallowed what he was about to say, but said in surprise, "Chang Lin?"
Chang Lin nodded indifferently, glanced at the people around him, and suddenly frowned and looked at Xie Mingwen, "I said that you did this inappropriately! I told you not to be reasonable, can these people be reasonable?"
Xie Mingwen nodded bitterly, "I didn't expect you to come anyway." ”
Chang Lin almost laughed out loud when he saw him say it so naturally. He's always there. Xie Mingwen also knows. But after all, it's a play.
Fortunately, in his consciousness, he has always focused on safeguarding Gu Dongping's interests, and he felt that the time was almost up, and he said, "I'm not coming, can you solve it?"
Xie Mingwen's face was even more bitter. Others see this, and there is a story in the dark passage.
Obviously, the two reached some secret agreement, which led to the current scene, and this agreement may also have something to do with Xie Mingwen's decision.
The second elder didn't speak anymore, Chang Lin had already established his authority when he appeared, if he wanted to kill someone just now, he was afraid that no one in the conference room would be able to escape.
His heart turned sharply, thinking about countermeasures, the words of forcing the palace just now had already been finished, so naturally he couldn't say it again.
He turned his mouth and said, "Your Highness, if the head of the family has any promise with you, the Xie family will double it in the future, but now it is a family matter of the Xie family, please let Your Highness move." ”
Chang Lin smiled even brighter, looked at Xie Mingwen, and did not hide that playfulness at all, meaning, "Take a look, this is the soldier you brought out, if the Xie family is like this, the master's plan is still a fart." ”
In the eyes of others, this is obviously a manifestation of the unusual relationship between the two. It was rumored that the two did not deal with each other before, why are they so close now? Some people wondered.
"If I refuse, you, as the second elder of the Xie family, one of the four major gates, are you going to use the merits accumulated by the Xie family to smash me to death?" Chang Lin said disdainfully.
"Your Highness, please give me a face. Xie Mingwen pleaded, he shouldn't go too far. Chang Lin snorted coldly when he heard this, and stopped talking.
In the eyes of others, Xie Mingwen is clearly able to make Chang Lin respect.
"Recently, His Highness Lin has been talking to me frequently, and you know. And last night, His Royal Highness Chang Lin's teaching made me wake up. That's why last night's decision was made. ”
"And His Highness is also a warm-hearted person. Seeing that the Xie family seems to be beautiful, it is actually a frog in warm water, and I am worried that the Xie family will be troubled because of the donation. Therefore, it was decided to become an offering to the Xie family, and symbolically received a reward of one imperial coin per year. Help the Xie family through the difficulties. ”
"This is for the sake of your courage, and second, I am a guilty body, and only these things can fill the guilt of the empire in my heart. Only in this way can Gu Dongping lose a powerful ally. Chang Lin's previous sentence was affectionate, and the latter sentence turned into gritting teeth when he mentioned Gu Dongping.
Others felt that it was reasonable, and it seemed that Chang Lin wanted to completely eliminate the relationship between the Xie family and Gu Dongping.
Xie Mingwen nodded, and then said, "His Highness's sudden appearance today is actually a wake-up call for us in disguise, if the Lord of the Artifact attacks from the shadows." ”
"With all due respect, I just want to say, can any of you here stop it?"
He looked at the Second Elder, his eyes burning.
