Chapter Seventy-Four: The Divine Decree
The content of the last two chapters may be a little tiring to watch.,But it's all necessary foreshadowing.,Brothers watch patiently~.
While Ren Xiaoyao was pondering, everyone in the Ren family continued to ask Han De.
For this dog minion, he was so arrogant and arrogant before, which had already made everyone in the Ren family angry. So everyone was unceremonious to him, and under the insults and pressures, they let him tell everything.
As Han De said, he was ordered by Han Yan, the second young master of the Han family, to come over to deliver the holy decree. As for the words he had previously slandered the Ren family for colluding with Xiliang and plotting to rebel, they were all taught by Han Yan. The purpose of Han Yan's move is to make the people of the Ren family unhappy and give the Ren family a disadvantage.
After listening to Han De's words, everyone in the Ren family gritted their teeth one after another - the Han family was so unreasonable!
The task of this edict should have been completed by Han Yan, the second young master of the Han family, and as the son of the prime minister of the imperial court, he was naturally qualified to serve as the minister of the imperial court. But Han Yan put up a stinky shelf, and only sent a house slave and four guards to announce the decree, which was already an insult to the Ren family!
Moreover, he sent his slave Han De to announce the decree, and deliberately made Han De act arrogant, and slandered the Ren family for rebellion. Doing so is beyond the scope of insult and belongs to framing.
In fact, the Han family and the Ren family have long had a grudge, otherwise Han Yan would not have insulted and slandered the Ren family like this as soon as he came up.
As early as when Ren Fengshuang was alive, the Ren family and the Han family at that time were the two major families of the Great Xia Imperial Court. Ren Fengshuang I was the first generalissimo of the imperial court, in charge of the world's soldiers and horses, the scenery was infinite, of course, the Ren family at that time was also very prosperous, and no family could compare.
The Han family was already the prime minister's house at that time, and the head of the family, Han Linfu, as the prime minister, was in power and was second to none among many civil servants.
However, whether it is the power in the government and the opposition or the prestige of the people, Han Linfu is not as good as Ren Fengshuang, and the strength of the Han family is also inferior to the original Ren family.
At that time, Ren Fengshuang was loyal to the imperial court, she thought that Han Linfu was too insidious and cunning, and he was addicted to power and scheming, and the city government was too deep, so he might have a disobedience to the imperial court, so she repeatedly made suggestions to the emperor, hoping to weaken the Han family. It's a pity that the power of the Han family is deep-rooted, and Ren Fengshuang didn't be ruthless to them, so he hasn't brought them down, so that the Han family can sit firmly in the position of the second largest family in the imperial court.
Until Ren Fengshuang died, the Ren family lost its pillar all of a sudden, and there was no successor, so it was instantly depressed. At this time, the Han family also secretly made some mistakes, and finally caused the Ren family's status to plummet, and they could only come to Xingcheng County, a small city here, to be safe.
With this far-reaching grudge, the Han family and the Ren family both have hatred for each other in their hearts. In addition, Han Yan, the second young master of the Han family, is an extremely narrow-minded and arrogant guy, and the emperor came to preach the holy decree this time, so he naturally wanted to take this opportunity to give the Ren family some color to take a look.
It's a pity that the Han De he sent was too uncompetitive, not only did he fail to make the Ren family ugly, but he made a big mistake......
......
"Hmph, this Han Yan'er is really too deceitful!" Ren Cangtian stroked his beard angrily and shouted angrily.
"That's right, isn't it just that you are from the Han family? I think what their Han family was when the old lady was here!" the four elders also sighed angrily.
Several other elders and all the clansmen also stepped forward and said to Ren Canglong: "Family master, this matter can't be left like this, we must report to the Holy Lord and treat them for the crime of framing loyalty!"
"That's right, repay the saint!"
A group of Ren family disciples were arguing, indignant at Han Yan and Han De's actions.
"Don't worry, everyone, I have my own measure in this matter, and now, it is still the most important matter of the Holy Decree. Ren Canglong raised his hand, making all the clansmen calm down, and then said to Han De, who was paralyzed on the ground: "Bring the holy decree!"
Han De dared to disobey and hurriedly presented the holy decree.
Ren Canglong took the holy decree and read it carefully, but his expression became more and more solemn when he looked at the holy decree.
Seeing his expression, the others were also a little uneasy, and Ren Cangtian couldn't help but ask: "Family Master, what is the will of the Holy Lord, is it really to condemn our Ren family?"
"Not really. But it's not much better. Ren Canglong said and handed the holy decree to Ren Cangtian.
After reading it, his expression also became solemn, and he handed the holy decree to the four elders again. Next, the holy decree was circulated among all the tribes, and the expressions of those who read the holy decree became extremely solemn.
After a long time, Ren Canglong sighed faintly: "Alas...... I can't imagine that Your Majesty has made such a will, it seems that we have to obey it, otherwise not only will we not only resist the decree, but we will also be seized by the Han family, and we will really be said to be colluding with Xiliang. ”
"Yes, that's right, how could Your Majesty suddenly pass such a holy decree?"
"Alas, the king's heart is unpredictable, and we, as courtiers, can only act according to orders. ”
......
Several elders glanced at me and sighed at the content of the holy decree. Some of the children of the family who have not yet seen the holy decree can't help but be more curious about the content of the holy decree.
At this time, Ren Xiaoyao also saw the solemn expressions of everyone, and he was extremely curious about the content of the holy decree. It just so happened that the decree had reached him, and he took it and quickly skimmed through it. After reading the holy decree, his expression also became solemn.
The will of the holy decree is very simple: order the king of Xingluo County, lead all the soldiers under him, and wave his army to attack the Xiliang Kingdom.
Attack the Western Liang Kingdom!
Such an order, for others, only means to go to war, although they are unwilling, but there are not many other emotions. But for Ren Xiaoyao, this holy decree surprised him too much - in his previous life, there was no such thing as attacking Xiliang Kingdom!
Looking at the holy decree, Ren Xiaoyao's mind was racing, and he had to be sure of one thing: some of the things that he would encounter in his previous life and this life had indeed changed.
For example, when the Bai family rebelled before, there was Bai Xing, a master of the Imperial Star Realm, who made a move, which had not happened in his previous life. Another example is that Han Yan came to Starfall County to deliver the holy decree, which was also about two years earlier than the time when the Han family appeared in the previous life. In addition to the current incident, the emperor ordered the Ren family to attack the Xiliang Kingdom, which had never happened in the previous life......
This made Ren Xiaoyao feel a little uneasy: if things in this life become completely different from those in the previous life, then he will not have the ability to "predict" everything. Then when he encounters various emergencies in the future, won't he be able to prepare in advance?
But after thinking for a moment, Ren Xiaoyao quickly calmed himself down again. So far, things that are different from the previous life have only happened to these three things, and the other things are not much different. Come to think of it, even if there is a difference in the experience of the past and present lives, it should only be a small part.
He didn't bother to continue to think about it, because there was a tricky matter ahead of him.
Han Yan, the second young master of the Han family, was the key figure in triggering the conflict between Ren and Han in his previous life. Now that he has appeared, this is a dangerous signal: if he is not careful, maybe he will be able to hold a grudge against the Ren family again, so that the Han family will attack the Ren family in advance!
Now, although the Ren family is under the management of Ren Canglong, it is developing extremely fast, but after all, it is only in a small city like Starfall County, and it cannot be compared with a super family like the Han family. Especially in the number of masters, the Ren family only has Ren Canglong, a master of the Imperial Star Realm, while the Han family, in the previous life, only chased and killed Ren Xiaoyao's father and son, there were more than a dozen masters, and most of them reached above the Imperial Star Realm! It can be seen that the gap between the two families is not a star and a half.
Therefore, the current Ren family must not openly confront the Han family, otherwise it will be tantamount to shaking the tree and looking for death by itself!
Ren Xiaoyao knew this very well, and with Ren Canglong's wisdom, he had already taken this into account. That's why he appeased the people of the clan before, so that they could be less peaceful and impatient, and don't be in a hurry to say anything "report to the saint and sue the Han family for the crime of framing Zhongliang". He knew very well that it was impossible for the Ren family to sue the Han family, but would blame the Han family for this and cause a big disaster.
At this moment, the matter of having the Holy Decree temporarily distracted everyone, and no one paid attention to Han De for a while, and everyone was discussing the matter of the Holy Decree.
But Han De is still in the mansion, and once he is asked to go back to report to Han Yan, he may not know what he will say. In case he instigates Han Yan and causes Han Yan to have a conflict with the Ren family, I am afraid that the effect will be the same as in his previous life - the Ren family will be attacked by the Han family like a storm, and even wiped out......
If Ren Xiaoyao was just alone, he wouldn't be afraid of any bullshit Han family.
With his current strength, although he can't deal with the Han family's Imperial Star Realm masters, it is not difficult to kill those children of the second and third generations. He can completely adopt a guerrilla fighting strategy and keep attacking and killing the Han family, until his strength surpasses that of all the Han family members, and then he can destroy them in one fell swoop!
But now, Ren Xiaoyao is still burdened with his family behind him. He has to think about the whole Ren family, so everything has to be cautious.
He thought for a while, came to his father, and said, "Dad, what are you going to do with this Han De? If it is not handled properly, this is a big trouble." ”
Ren Canglong nodded, what Ren Xiaoyao thought of, he had already thought of. He said helplessly: "Endure the calm for a while, although this Han De is despicable, and Han Yan is even more hateful, but with our current strength, we can't afford to offend the Han family." So...... I plan to appease Han De and send him back decently. ”
"Decent?" Ren Xiaoyao couldn't help but hold back a fire in his heart when he heard this. He had thought of his father's proposal before, but this approach was really to increase the enemy's morale and destroy his own prestige. He thought for a while and said, "Dad, if we really send him back decently, do you think that with Han De's heart, he will really appreciate it and won't bite us back?"
Ren Canglong was silent for a while, and said, "Then what do you think it should be?"
"If you want me to say it, killing him is the easiest, but in that case, it will be difficult for us to explain to Han Yan, after all, Han De was sent by him to the Ren family. But even if you don't kill him, you must not be too polite to him, because this Han De is just a guy who eats soft and does not eat hard! If you want him to shut up, you have to make him suffer a little!"
Listening to Ren Xiaoyao's words, Ren Canglong looked at Han De, who was sitting on the ground with a flattering expression, was silent for a while, and finally nodded: "You're right, a timid minion like Han De really has to scare him to work, just do as you say." ”
