Text Volume 1_Chapter 615 A bet between brothers
The family meeting lasted for more than two hours, and at the end of the session, Tai Shu Qiong glanced at his younger brother sitting in the main seat, after all, he was still too young, and there was no Tai Shuyan in the main city, and it was a huge challenge to compete with the uncles.
Uncle Tai Heng made certain concessions, and the final result was that Peng Xuan was temporarily detained, and the contradiction between him and Qin Chong should be resolved within a month.
It's not practical to say that it is estimated that it will be exchanged for others, at most it will be handed back to his father, but with such a play, it will be difficult for him to take over the power again.
At the very least, you have to make a significant contribution to the family, which is a high threshold and difficult to do.
The most important thing is that his father is old and old, and if he gives up halfway this time, he will be in danger of being forced into the palace.
Steward Shao had already gone out of the city, and went to meet the old master alone to ask about the next arrangements, judging from this action, this is not a trivial matter.
The detention of Peng Xuan is also a big blow to the newly ascended Taishu Heng, his subordinates help him with things, he is conscientious, and he is an old minister with a high prestige, he can't even protect his own people, which is inevitably criticized.
Uncle Tai Heng returned to his residence, first asked someone to bring his own handwritten letter to the territory of King Yan, solving Qin Chong is the first task, the first task issued since the throne was to kill the family elite and a Sacred Domain Martial Sect, the start was too unfavorable, and then imprisoned Peng Xuan, there are not many cards available in his hand.
I have to say that the uncles are desperately trying their best to create trouble and obstacles for him, and Uncle Tai can't wait to take advantage of this opportunity to play a ruthless game, send people to surround this place, and kill them one by one, so that there will only be one voice in Uncle Tai's family, which can be regarded as helping his father clean up potential threats.
It's not that this bold idea has never been moved, and I don't dare to do it, first, I can't guess what my father is thinking, and second, I am afraid that if it fails, the uncle's family will be in chaos.
He sat in the middle of the meeting for a while, thought a lot, took a deep breath and stepped out. As soon as he came out, he didn't expect Tai Shuyu to stand under a big tree in full bloom, looking like a little old man with his hands behind his back, looking at a few gorgeous burning clouds in the sky.
"Brother Yu, this is waiting for me, I don't know what to do?" Uncle Tai seemed to smile,
"You have also seen it, my uncles spared no effort to suppress me, if it weren't for their surname being Uncle Tai, I would have thought it was a helper invited by Qin Chong from the Heavenly Alliance. ”
"Brother Heng is really good at laughing, from my point of view, the uncles' advice to you is considered from your position, you are the leader, if you don't do things well, you will lose the hearts of the people, who doesn't look forward to the prosperity of the family, getting bigger and stronger. ”
"Let's get down to business, I'm very irritable now, and it's not interesting to say hypocritical words, so I won't sing and act with you. Uncle Tai said bluntly.
Tai Shuyu slapped his face,
"Okay, good, Brother Heng's personality is refreshing and decisive, it was Brother Qiong who asked me to stay and let me bring a word, saying that I want to make a bet with you, I don't know if you dare?"
"Bet on what? Your brother has been unconvinced since he was a teenager, but unfortunately, I almost always beat him. Forget about a small fight, I have it, he may not have it, I don't know if he can afford to gamble. ”
"Brother Heng has a strong father, this is your luck, and our brother can't compare to you. Uncle Tai spread his hands, and then said with a serious expression,
"Brother Qiong said, it's better than him or you who catches Qin Chong first, there are a lot of bets, anyway, sweeping away Qin Chong is also a task you must complete, Brother Qiong just exerts some more motivation on you, pick some lottery, if he loses, he will no longer have the idea of competing with you in the future, we will all work hard for the family with you like the deceased brother." If you lose, you have to take the initiative to step down and swear that you will not be allowed to take power again for three years, do you dare?" Uncle Tai was silent, and he could not be in power again for three years, which would basically be the wrong time for his father to do his best to help him to the throne.
This bet is not too much, all the advantages are in his hands, he has the strong soldiers and strong generals left by his father, Qin Chong went deep into the Northern Regions alone with his henchmen, there is no internal response at all, and he is constantly being damaged, and the two sides are already overwhelming on his side.
If you don't feel confident in this way, and you're afraid that you won't be able to catch him, or even be bitten back, is that too incompetent?
With this courage and ability, it seems that he is indeed not suitable to be the helmsman of the family.
"I answered!" Uncle Tai said word by word,
"There is a sentence to go back and tell him, he lost to me when he was a teenager, and it will be the same when he grows up, and I am destined to ride on his head for the rest of my life!"
"Feng Shui takes turns, don't talk too much, then the game begins, Brother Heng, good luck!" After speaking, the young man jumped up directly from the ground and jumped away from the roof.
Uncle Heng met Peng Xuan in the prison. He sat quietly in a solitary cell with his hands in special handcuffs, and when his uncle came to visit, he just sighed and looked at it, and then looked back at it.
"Everyone else, stand down, I'm going to talk to him alone. Uncle Taiheng said to the jailer next to him,
"Also, take off the handcuffs, he is a hero of my uncle's family, my father's person, not a prisoner!"
"But your uncle said......" said the jailer.
"Forget it, don't be embarrassed, don't say anything guilty, those brothers haven't been embarrassed, and I'm relieved. Peng Xuan sighed,
"You're busy right now, so don't waste your time here. ”
"Brother Xuan, this time it's my brother who can't stand you. Uncle Tai used the title of his youth, and he could feel a sense of exhaustion and loss in Peng Xuan's heart.
"What's right or wrong, do it well, don't let your father down. Uncle Tai Heng didn't know what to say, so he left the cell after a little calming, and the bet between him and Uncle Tai Qiong began, this time he went into battle in person, and he could only win and not lose!
