Volume 1 Chapter 112 The Secret Covenant of the Five Great Families
"Head of the family......" Tong Qiang's eyes were red when he came in, he was anxious and angry, he didn't expect to go out in the middle of the night, and the family had an accident in the Jade Emperor Academy.
And the moment he saw Ren Jie, Tong Qiang's whole person had a feeling of wanting to jump up and jump like thunder, and the state of the head of the family at the moment was much more serious than what he had heard from the gopher on the way in just now.
"Gopher!" Tong Qiang turned his head violently, he was already on the verge of killing, the gopher should have been punished for not protecting his family, and what made Tong Qiang angry and angry was that the gopher actually lied in front of him.
The head of the family's injuries are as simple as he said, and it looks like it's almost ... No, if he wants to say that in order to relieve himself of responsibility......
"Captain, if you don't protect the head of the family, you should kill me, but I really didn't lie to excuse myself. "The gopher is also stupid, what's going on, how is the head of the house more serious than just now, how is it still serious after half a night.
"Tong Qiang, don't get excited, this has nothing to do with gophers, I want to take the opportunity to cultivate and break through, and I also blocked the gophers from rushing in before, and this matter ends here." In this way, prepare immediately, let's leave Yujing City now. ”
"Family master, your current body should go back to the family first. Tong Qiang was scared when he looked at it, Ren Jie's situation at the moment was not ordinary scary, Tong Qiang, who had experienced countless life and death battles, seemed to be afraid, you can imagine how terrifying it was.
"No, let's go now. Ren Jie affirmed again, and said decisively.
Although Tong Qiang was worried, he still personally raised his hand to use the mana to lift Ren Jie and the seat together and take him to the spirit beast car, and then ordered the team to prepare, although Ren Jie pleaded, Tong Qiang also looked at the gopher angrily, and punished him after the matter was stable.
The gopher followed guiltily, and although the head of the house did not blame, he willingly accepted any punishment from the captain.
In addition to them, there has always been a person who is also wearing the gorgeous armor of the guards by Tong Qiang's side, he has no words, no reaction, but his heart is no longer calm, even if he is a left-handed evil sword, even if he has experienced so many things, even if he has long stopped taking life and death as a thing. But at this moment, it was really difficult for him to calm down, Ren Jie asked Tong Qiang to take people and take the spirit beast to help him transfer the teacher's family, but he was almost killed here, in fact, the first time he saw Ren Jie after coming in, Xie Jian felt that Ren Jie would not live long.
His hands are useless, but his eyes are not wasted, his heart is not wasted, he can see and feel.
But from beginning to end, Ren Jie didn't say anything, didn't mention anything, and didn't let everyone talk about anything else, but Xie Jian saw it in his eyes and remembered it in his heart.
.........................................................
Above the main hall of the Ren's family council, at this moment, the three elders have just summoned a lot of people below, and arranged many things, mainly for the upcoming meeting of all the elders of the family, and after a little rest, the three of them all took a breath and drank tea for the time being.
"Hmph, our head of the family has become the strongest first-year person in the academy, but it has become a new joke in Yujing City, using aphrodisiacs to poison classmates to force classmates to take off their clothes and find Qinglou, almost destroying Fang Qi's residence, and now he has forcibly taken such a first-year strongest person with Tong Qiang's strength, and the Ren family's face is completely lost to him. The more Ren Wenxu spoke, the more angry he became: "Quick, we must convene a meeting of all the family elders as soon as possible, and if he continues to toss like this, the Ren family's reputation and prestige will be ruined." ”
"I don't know the depth, I don't know what to say about him. It's just that there is a battle at this time, otherwise the general meeting of the elders of the whole family has been held now, and he, the head of the family, should also be at the end. I think we should supervise this matter, in addition to preparing here, we should also inform other people, no matter what, we must take time, after all, this is a major matter related to the fate of the family, and the family can no longer let such a person be the head of the family. "Ren Hanlin can't wait to remove Ren Jie's head of the family now, if he has this power.
"He can't be around for a few days, and he really thinks he's the head of the family with a group of guards all day long, and without our tireless management every day, the family can continue to prosper and thrive. Ren Junyang slowly took a sip of water, and said in a deep voice: "Now it is imperative to take down Ren Jie, the head of the family, what we have to think of is how to reach an agreement and balance with those two, the Ren family can't be chaotic, especially not from the inside." ”
Agreement, balance, Ren Hanlin and Ren Wenxu heard it and their hearts accelerated at the same time, what is agreement and balance, that is the time to redivide interests again. Because only when everyone talks about their interests, Ren Tianqi and Ren Tianheng, the two people who hold great power and lead the army, will support them and elect an obedient new family leader.
And in this process, they will also get the benefits they want, they have made so many preparations before, they have been busy for so long, and it is finally their turn to redivide the interests, although the two of them have thought about it for a long time, but at this moment, Ren Junyang brought it up, and their hearts still couldn't help but beat faster.
"Once there is a change in the head of the family, we also have to consider the changes in some other responsible persons in advance, so as not to be caught off guard at that time. After Ren Junyang finished speaking, his eyelids raised slightly and looked at Ren Hanlin and Ren Wenxu, if he wanted to win over these two people, he would give them benefits, only if they united first could they form enough strength to talk to Ren Tianheng and Ren Tianqi, in order to ......
"......Boom" At this moment, a black shadow suddenly flew in and smashed heavily to the ground, but the black shadow's body was wrapped in a layer of force, so when it fell to the ground, it was like a meteorite falling from the sky, and the main hall of the council was shaken.
"Who is it?" Ren Wenxu, Ren Hanlin, and Ren Junyang suddenly got up, and instantly their strength spread all over their bodies, and their hearts were all shocked, how could anyone break in when they were discussing such an important matter.
The people on the ground didn't move, and then Ren Junyang and the three of them also found that it was a dead corpse, what is?
"Look, the three elders have seen it clearly. At this moment, Wan Hong's voice sounded outside the main hall, and then Wan Hong had already walked in between steps, Wan Hong, who usually attended the elders' meeting on behalf of the sixth master Ren Tianzong but never spoke, actually spoke at this time, but his voice was extremely cold.
"Wan Hong, what do you mean by this?" Ren Hanlin frowned slightly, looking at Wan Hong unhappily, what did he want to do when he got a corpse here?
"I let the three elders see clearly, that is, this person is going to assassinate the head of the family, the head of the family is now seriously injured and life and death are unknown, and now the sixth master has sent someone to take the head of the family to King Mingyu Dan to ask for a life-saving pill, and the sixth master asked me to hand over the body of this killer to the three elders. ”
"What, assassinated?"
"Badly wounded, life and death unknown?"
"Killer?"
.........
This news really scared Ren Junyang and them, because it was too shocking and unexpected, but in their hearts, the three of them were happy at the same time.
"Hmph, I have long known that he will have an accident sooner or later if he tosses like this, and now it really is. "I already knew Ren Hanlin, but I just didn't say it.
"It's no wonder that you cause trouble everywhere, cause trouble, and don't be hated. Ren Wenxu didn't look surprised, in fact, these were just suppressing the happiness in their hearts, because Ren Jie had been tossing too much recently, making them all a little worried that he would become the next Ren Tianxing, now it's okay.
"The head of the family is in danger of being seriously injured by the assassination, and at this time, it is even more necessary for our elders to support the family situation. What ......... the head of the family" At this time, Ren Junyang's voice was also sounding, and his words were very low and even more calm.
It's just that at this moment, Wan Hong is standing at the door of the main hall, but he has a feeling that he is completely in the same world as them, and he can't believe all this in front of him at this moment. The news that he was telling them now was that the head of the family had been assassinated, and these people were almost excited to celebrate, and everyone asked about the head of the family's injuries and why he was assassinated.
Ren Hanlin and Ren Wenxu's schadenfreude, almost couldn't help laughing, and Ren Junyang seems to be a major situation, but in fact it is even more hateful, the first thing that comes to mind at this time is how to use this opportunity to take power.
Wan Hong felt that he was about to explode, if the head of the family was still the same waste material as before, it would be fine, but he had seen the head of the house talking to the sixth master, and he had also seen the head of the house exert his power, and he said in his heart that even if the head of the house pretended, he was really a god if he could endure it for so long, and he would definitely not be able to bear it if he wanted to change it. In the past, Wan Hong was completely on the outside, but now that she has a position and angle, she feels so ridiculous and angry when she looks at them again, that people almost can't help but be angry.
As for Ren Junyang's words, he didn't listen to how to plan and how to get power.
"Enough. Suddenly, Wan Hong's voice couldn't help it, and he couldn't help but raise it slightly, and drank Ren Junyang, who was talking, and glanced at the three of them coldly: "Three elders, I came to pass the word instead of the sixth master, and the sixth master said." If a family doesn't even react to the assassination of the head of the family, then the head of the family is almost finished. Moreover, the five major families once had a private secret agreement, and the agreement of thousands of years could not be broken, and it was inconvenient for the sixth master to come forward, so he hoped that the three elders would immediately bring the corpse into the palace and let His Majesty personally convene a meeting of the heads of the five major families. ”
"The sixth master has also passed this news to all the people who belong to the family, the head of the family is the representative and symbol of the family, anyone who dares to move the head of the family is not only moving the interests of the entire family, but also all the people of the family and all the forces must be reunited, once they find out who it is, they will not hesitate to strike at all the thunderbolts, activate the secret agreement of the five major families thousands of years ago, and start all the forces to prepare for war......"
"It's... I'm afraid it's not suitable at this time, after all, the matter is not clear, and I don't know what the reason is, we can investigate secretly first, and then ...... "Mobilize all the forces to exert pressure, just for such a gentlemanly family master, where is he worthy, so Ren Junyang interrupted without waiting for Wan Hong to finish speaking, and found an excuse to postpone this matter.
"......Boom" At this moment, suddenly the entire hall was surrounded by a special aura, and a powerful force filled the hall, and at the same time, it also oppressed Ren Junyang and the three elders.
"Hmm...... Well...... Hmmm......" snorted three times in a row, Ren Junyang, Ren Hanlin, and Ren Wenxu were almost overwhelmed by this momentum, their faces were extremely ugly, and blood slowly flowed out from the corners of Ren Hanlin and Ren Wenxu's mouths and nostrils.
"I have already contacted the second brother and the fifth brother in this matter, the head of the Ren family is the head of the Ren family, he will represent the Ren family for one day in power, and he will not allow anyone or any force to hurt him, and now he will take immediate action to take out the secret agreement of the five major families thousands of years ago, and let the other four major families give an explanation, and all the members of the family will be ready for battle. If you still have any opinions, think that you should not come out at this time, then directly ask the Great Elder to come out, but at that time, you must let the Great Elder judge a right and wrong, the wrong person will be punished, completely get out of the Elders' Council, and drive out of the Ren family, because he is no longer worthy to be a person of the Ren family. Under the oppression of the powerful and terrifying force, Ren Tianzong's voice was then heard, strong and domineering, although it was not as direct as it was to Fang Tianen that day, but in fact there was no difference.
After saying that, the powerful oppressive force did not disappear, still oppressing Ren Junyang and the three of them, and at this moment, even the strongest Ren Junyang felt tightness in his chest.
The secret agreement of the five families, in order to avoid the infighting of the high-level of the five families, at the beginning of the establishment of the Mingyu Dynasty, the five families secretly agreed that once the head of the other family was fatally injured or attacked, this secret agreement could be used for any reason. Once it is used, if the four major families cannot investigate the murderer within three days, this family can mobilize its own strength, and even a certain army will investigate and search, and the other four major families will have to cooperate.
The use of the army to investigate, arrest, and interrogate does not seem to be a big deal, but more than 700 years ago, the head of the Gao family was killed, and he used this secret agreement to use it. Three days later, the murderer was not investigated, and the Gao family mobilized a lot with the help of secret power, although in the end they still did not investigate who the murderer was, but they knocked out dozens of people who held real power in other major families, controlled a large amount of information, and occupied a lot of resources.
To put it bluntly, this secret agreement is to prevent the escalation of the five major family fights, and once something happens to the head of a certain family, the secret contract will be used to throw the pressure and problems to the other four families, but in this way, the matter will be big, so the five major families will not easily have the idea of killing the other family's head, at least they will not do assassination, it is not that there has been no family head who has died for various reasons for thousands of years, but there must be a reason for it, not this way of assassination.
And such a trouble, the emperor is the least like, because in a short period of time, with the help of the terms of the secret agreement, the Ren family can do many things that only the emperor has the right to do, such as public arrest, interrogation, search, investigation......
In Ren Junyang's philosophy, they have always tried to maintain a relationship with the emperor to avoid the emperor's suspicion and worry, and the emperor also expressed satisfaction with everything they have done in charge of the Ren family for more than a year, and now that they are making such a fuss, everything they have done before is in vain, hateful......
Ren Tianqi and Ren Tianheng even agreed, damn it, if you find the Great Elder now, you will suffer a big loss......
"Good ......" Although he didn't want to be the leader of Ren Junyang when he killed him, he didn't want to offend the emperor because of this, let alone use the strength of the entire family to put pressure on the other four major families, but the situation forced him to think a lot in his heart in an instant, Ren Tianzong seemed to be angry when he came out strongly, and this Shura still didn't make a fuss, especially when he actually obtained the consent of Ren Tianqi and Ren Tianheng, and finally could only nod helplessly and agree.
