Chapter 37: The Controversy I
The lobby of Ziyuan Pavilion fell into a different kind of silence for a while.
The eyes of the high-ranking members of the Xie family who looked at Lin Han and the fat man in his hand were first stunned, then surprised, and finally became strange, and they all looked at the great elder sitting at the top, wanting to laugh but they all held back, and their expressions looked very twisted.
"Bang~"
I saw that the Great Elder, who had maintained a high-spirited demeanor, slammed the table, his snow-white hair and beard were angry, like an angry old lion, and a pair of cloudy old eyes emitted a sharp divine light staring at Lin Han.
"What, Great Elder, do you know this sneaky guy?" Lin Han glanced at the angry Great Elder with blank eyes in his eyes, patted his head, and said in a sudden realization: "By the way, this guy was very arrogant before he was captured by me, saying that he was the son of the Great Elder, and I would beat him if there was a kind." I, Lin Han, naturally have a kind, so I beat him. ”
Lin Han paused, as if he didn't see the Great Elder's increasingly ugly old face, and then said: "Besides, who is the Great Elder, that is the pillar of the Xie family, and the highest moral person of the Xie family, I admire the Great Elder very much!
Seeing the strange appearance of everyone around him who wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, Lin Han suddenly got up and kicked Xie Lixuan's stomach hard, slapped him, pulled off the stinky socks in Xie Lixuan's mouth, and said viciously: "Didn't you say that you are the son of the Great Elder, and now that the Great Elder is here, do you say that you are the son of the Great Elder?"
"Dad, help, this kid is going to kill me, woo woo woo~"
Xie Lixuan, who was taken off the stinky socks in his mouth, didn't care about the occasion at this time, he got on all fours, and crawled towards the great elder without looking back.
"Hahaha~"
Finally, an old man with a crane-haired face sitting on the left couldn't help it and laughed out loud, it was the second elder of the Xie family who didn't deal with the Great Elder in the past.
As soon as the second elder spoke, the other high-ranking members of the Xie family who were holding back their strength seemed to be infected, and they all burst into laughter, and in an instant, the entire Ziyuan Pavilion seemed to fall into a sea of joy and burst into laughter.
"Bastard!"
Looking at his son who crawled to his feet like a lost dog and hugged his thighs and wailed, the great elder hated in his heart, and he didn't think about a slap in the face, and then locked his cold gaze on Lin Han, and said word by word:
"Lin Han, you came just in time, a few days ago you fought Xie Huifeng in Hongmei Garden, causing him to be inhumane, are you guilty?"
"Ah, Great Elder, I don't know what my sin is?" Lin Han spread his hands exaggeratedly, but the depths of his eyes were cold.
"You don't know what crime you have committed?" The Great Elder trembled with anger to Lin Han, and said in a cold voice: "I Xie family rules stipulate that brothers and sisters should respect relatives and fraternity, and you beat your cousin, just this is enough to punish you with thirty lashes, are you guilty now?"
"Brothers and sisters should be respectful and friendly, and violators should be fined thirty lashes? Okay, very good, then ask the Great Elder to arrest that Xie Huifeng first, and then come and settle this account with me, although he is no longer humane, but he asked for it, and it has nothing to do with me, but these thirty lashes cannot be exempted from this." ”
Lin Han paused, and then said: "Besides, the son doesn't teach, the father's fault, Xie Huifeng's words are vulgar, like a villain in the market, insulting his sister, his parents are also responsible, please also ask the great elder to explain the punishment of Xie Huifeng's parents." ”
"Bastard, how can you blame the head of the family!"
"The prince is guilty of the same crime as the common people, the head of the family is the clansman of the Xie family first, and then the head of the Xie family, if he violates the clan rules of the Xie family, he will naturally be punished accordingly, uncle, do you say that what I said is right?"
Looking at Xie Yuxuan, the head of the Xie family, who had been sitting steadily since he entered the door, a different color flashed in Lin Han's eyes, and he directly burned the fire on him.
"Ahem......"
Xie Yuxuan, who was sitting on the mountain watching the tiger fight, waiting for the final end, didn't expect Lin Han to directly involve himself, and he hated it in his heart, but on the surface, he still maintained an expression like a spring breeze, and under the eyes of everyone, he had to nod against his will:
"Yes, I, Xie Yuxuan, am a member of the Xie family, and then the head of the Xie family, if I violate the rules of my Xie family, I will naturally be punished accordingly. ”
Lin Han applauded and said: "Okay, very good, the eldest uncle really deserves to be the head of the Xie family, leading by example and playing a leading and exemplary role." ”
Xie Yuxuan's cheeks twitched a few times, glanced at Lin Han, and continued: "But Lin Han, it is a fact that you beat Hui Feng, as the head of the Xie family, I can't be biased, I can't be favoritism, Hui Feng will be punished, and you will also be punished." ”
"I'm going to be punished too?" Lin Han sneered in his heart, but his face was full of confusion and said, "Why should I be punished?"
"Naturally, it's my Xie family's family rules. A high-level member of the Xie family on the side said.
"Can the Xie family's clan rules confirm that I, Lin Han, will be punished?"
As soon as Lin Han's words came out, for a moment, the entire lobby was quiet, and they looked at Lin Han with wide eyes, but they couldn't speak.
That's right, the rules of the Xie family can naturally only restrain the children of the Xie family, but Lin Han is not the children of the Xie family, although the Lin family sisters and brothers have been living in the Xie family for all these years, but in order to avoid unpredictable troubles in the future, they have not opened their mouths to let them join the Xie family, so in this way, the rules of the Xie family really cannot restrain Lin Han.
Xie Yuxuan's face turned red and showed embarrassment: "Ahem, Lin Han, your sister and brother have been blessed by my Xie family for many years, although they have not really joined my Xie family, but in fact, I have long regarded you as members of my Xie family, so I ......"
Lin Han interrupted Xie Yuxuan's words and said coldly: "Uncle, do you treat our sister and brother as members of the Xie family, that is, you live in a small courtyard, send a little maid to serve, and distribute less than five taels of silver every month.
"Lin Han, don't be rude to the head of the family, although you have been wronged a little because of the negligence of your subordinates over the years, but don't forget, when your Lin family suffered a catastrophe, our Xie family risked being implicated and sent someone to rescue your sister and brother. ”
