Chapter 269: The Future of the Qin Family
The night was deep and shrouded in the mountains and forests on the outskirts of the city.
Without the embellishment of thousands of lights, the night is pure and extremely dark.
Fortunately, overhead, there was still a round and a half moon, shining a faint light to illuminate this team of tired knights.
In a forest more than 40 miles in the eastern suburbs of Zhongjing City, the leader slowly reined in his horse and stopped with the entire team.
The horses were tied to the side to graze, and everyone gathered in a disciplined circle and silently ate dry food.
I've been on the run since I received the news, and now I can finally take a break.
The sparse moonlight sprinkled from the leaves, like a burst of residual snow, adding a bit of sadness to everyone.
"Mr. Yuan, is the lord really dead?"
A knight spoke softly, causing everyone else to look up at the man in the lead.
That man was the right-hand man who served Qin Sichao on weekdays, and when he heard the words, he silently took a bite of dry food, chewing while organizing words in his mind.
"Yes, the lord is dead. But the lord died, and his ambition to resist the tyranny of the faint monarch and create a new world did not die! That's our ambition too! ”
He looked at the people who were shocked by his words, and swept the familiar faces through the moonlight, "Have you ever thought that the lord can temporarily bow his head and admit his mistakes, why should he decide to die?" ”
The crowd looked at him in silence, waiting for his answer.
The reason is hidden in his words! He is not willing to bow to this rotten court, he is not willing to bow to that mediocre tyrant! His words uncovered the scars of the Great Xia Imperial Court! His words will also ignite the anger of the whole world! His words are also paving the way for what we will do next! ”
He roared: "Each of us is burdened with a sea of blood and hatred, fortunately saved and taken in by the lord to have today, now the lord is gone, but his will is still there, our hatred is still there!" Next, let us uphold the will of the Lord and smash this Great Xia River and Mountain in exchange for a peaceful and prosperous world that belongs to us! ”
"It's a man, just follow me! It's a coward, go now! You and I are destined for this life! ”
Immediately, someone spoke without hesitation: "May Mr. Suiyuan!" ”
The rest of the people agreed one after another, but in the end, none of them withdrew, and they all roared in a low voice, "May I follow Mr. Yuan!" ”
Mr. Yuan laughed, "Sure enough, they are all my good brothers!" Rest assured, the Lord has already planned a way out for us! Let's go! ”
"Mr. Yuan, where are we going?"
Mr. Yuan turned over on his horse, looked ahead, and said heroically: "Longshouzhou!" ”
After a few moments, the sound of hooves disappeared deep into the forest.
——
The Qin family is brightly lit.
The mourning hall had already been set up in the afternoon, welcoming an endless stream of people who came to the door to mourn.
In the room behind the mourning hall, the old head of the Qin family sat in the middle, and the elders of the clan gathered together.
The old family master of Qin lowered his eyes, and said weakly: "Now that the Xiangfu has fallen, the clan elders who have received the benefits of the Xiangfu before, stand up for yourself." ”
With this sentence, the atmosphere in the audience suddenly became tense.
But everyone, you look at me, I look at you, and no one makes any moves.
The old family master of Qin raised his head suddenly, and a fine light flashed in his cloudy old eyes, which swept over the faces of the clan elders, and many people subconsciously lowered their heads and did not dare to look at them.
"Now, it has been ascertained that the Prime Minister is the real murderer of Yuwen, and you are also his elders, don't you feel half guilty in your heart? His body is still resting in the mourning hall waiting to be buried! ”
"Don't have a dream that Qin Sichao is dead, no one will know about this, it's a matter of rebellion, even how long Qin Sichao can last in bed will be turned out, can you still hide this bit of?"
"I'm giving you a chance tonight, and when you say it, it's all in this room. You only need to hand over the property you are in charge of, and the old man will distribute it again, you are still the elders of the clan, and you still have countless glory and wealth. But if the Black Ice Platform finds out afterwards, it will be the punishment of being expelled from the family, removed from the family tree, and not being buried in the ancestral grave after death! When the time comes, don't say that the old man hasn't given you a chance! ”
After a long silence, an old man stood up, "The head of the family, the old man was indeed bewitched by the Prime Minister's Mansion and promised to help them achieve the goal of joining the clan, but he did not assist them in assassinating Yuwen, nor did he accept their money and property. ”
The old master of Qin sneered, was noncommittal, and waited quietly.
The second old man stood up again.
Then, the third, the fourth, the fifth
After a while, the nine clan elders of the Qin family, except for the eight remaining eight of the old family master, stood up a full six.
The remaining two clan elders glanced at each other, and they couldn't help but feel scared for a while.
The old man laughed angrily, "Okay, it's really good, with your help, why worry about his big deal!" If it weren't for Prince Xia, our Qin family might have been eaten and wiped clean by his prime minister's mansion! ”
Everyone bowed their heads silently, not knowing whether they were really ashamed or temporarily avoiding the edge.
But since the old master of the Qin family has made this start, he is naturally fully prepared.
directly took back all the properties managed by the six clan veterans, and then after some bargaining, with the power of the fall of the Prime Minister's Mansion, after the mourning hall, the recovery of power was finally completed.
The head of the Qin family personally pushed the wheelchair and sent his father back to his residence after tossing for most of the night.
Walking on the road, he whispered, "Father, are you in a hurry?" Now that the matter has passed, shouldn't our Qin family be concerned about stability? ”
"You know!"
Listening to his son's stupid words, the old man said speechlessly: "If you don't do this now, you won't have a chance to do it in the future, and you won't be able to do it!" ”
He hated iron and said: "I don't understand the truth that people have no long-term worries, if the Qin family is really your master, it will be long gone!" ”
A strong father's subordinates, most of them are a cowardly son, the head of the Qin family has long been accustomed to this kind of words, and he didn't get angry when he heard the words, but wondered: "What kind of foresight?" ”
The old master almost ran out of breath to turn his back, and after a while, he entered the house before he said slowly: "You haven't thought about it, your son is gone, who will inherit the Qin family next?" ”
The head of the Qin family suddenly realized, frowned and thought for a while, and suddenly his eyes lit up, "Then how many concubines will I take in and fight?" ”
The old master was so angry that he directly took off the jade wrench in his hand and smashed it, "You are so good, can't you see a daughter in front of you?" Do you still struggle to have a straw bale like you? ”
The head of the Qin family didn't care about his father's daily humiliation, and said in surprise: "Pass it on to Ah Li? ”
The old master snorted, "Otherwise, what do you think I am doing with power?" It's to keep these people from saying anything against it! ”
"But what about after that?"
"What's this? Just give birth to a son, surnamed Qin. ”
——
The exciting night passed slowly, and the light returned to Zhongjing.
And this day is also the day when Qin Yuwen, the eldest son of the Qin family, came out of the funeral nearly a month after the spirit was stopped.
Early in the morning, Xia Jingyun also got up early, and was about to go out to the Qin family to mourn with Chen Fugui, when he heard a noisy commotion as soon as he came to the door.
He crept over and stuck out his neck to take a look.
it! Boy!
Outside the gate of the Hou Mansion, where not many people come on weekdays, the carriages are lined up so that you can't see the end at a glance.
And those people saw Xia Jingyun's figure, and rushed towards the Hou Mansion with a scream as if they had taken medicine.
