Of course, Zhao Xin knew that Zhao Hu was Cui Cen's person, but in fact, he didn't understand it very much.

If it's someone else, forget it, as a member of the Zhao family, a royal sect, actually went to collude with a foreign minister and a power traitor, what do you want?

In-law?

What is that?

Even if the Cui family really succeeds in usurping power, as a former dynasty clan, can it still hold real power?

So Zhao Xin said that he had a brain disease, and he really didn't say it casually.

I called this person here today because I wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of him.

Before cleaning up the Cui family, he had to clean up the clan.

He never wanted to have the clan hindering him when he made a move against the Cui family, it would be too embarrassing.

In addition, he also wanted to see if this person would be iron-clad to the end.

If it was possible, he didn't want to do anything to the clan casually, and in this era, it was by no means a good reputation to do it to the clan, even as an emperor.

In the original book, the faint monarch was defeated so easily, and the reason was that the clan was completely destroyed.

Outcome......

And sure enough, it was still the case.

That being the case, there is not much to say.

Zhao Xin sneered, and didn't bother to say more.

With a wave of his hand, Cao Xiong immediately understood, turned around and waved his hand towards the small yellow door, who immediately hurriedly turned into the apse.

But Zhao Hu didn't seem to hear the key to his words, and actually straightened his body suddenly, made a loyal minister who was desperately straightforward, and said angrily: "Your Majesty, although he is the emperor, but the minister is the head of the clan and the courtier of the Great Qin, but he still has to say what he should say."

Can't Your Majesty even listen to your direct words?"

Zhao Xin sneered, "Straightforward, what straightforward?"

Zhao Hu, now I am not talking to you as the emperor, but as the patriarch of the Zhao clan.

Don't you even know what that means?"

Hearing this, not only Zhao Hu in the Xuan room, but everyone couldn't help but change their faces.

If you want to clean up other courtiers, you need the law, you need the court to discuss it, and you need to be tried by the three divisions.

But as the patriarch of the Zhao clan, he doesn't need these at all.

And for the people of this era, the law of the clan is more terrible than the law of the state.

For the law of the land can destroy you physically, at best, the law of the clan can destroy you by your surname, from your soul.

Once you are expelled from the clan, you will not be able to die at peace, you will not be able to enter the ancestral hall, you will not be allowed to enter the genealogy, and you will not be able to receive incense.

In a sense, you really don't exist at all.

This is far more terrible than death for people in this era.

This is also the time ...... The reason why the power of the family and the clan will be so strong.

In this era, there are traitors, but there are very few people who judge the clan.

Zhao Hu's face also changed in shock.

But he was still unconvinced: "So what, the old man is also a big sect." ”

"You're not!"

As soon as Zhao Hu's words fell, an old voice sounded from behind the screen.

Hearing this voice, Zhao Hu's face changed suddenly.

Immediately afterward, a sound of crutches touching the ground was heard, and a group of old men with white beards rushed out of the apse.

There were more than a dozen of them, all of them were old and shaped like rotten wood, and the youngest was probably no less than seventy or eighty years old.

The old man in the lead is already as thin as a handful of dry firewood, and although his face is undiminished, the age spots are almost stacked together.

The hand holding the tip of the cane is like a chicken claw.

But as soon as this person came out, everyone in the Xuan room, including Zhao Xin, hurriedly stood up together.

When Zhao Hu saw this person, his face changed dramatically.

"Uncle Tai, clan elder...... You guys?!"

"Humph!"

The leading old man glanced at him, snorted coldly, but ignored him, and trembled and planned to salute the emperor.

Seeing this, Zhao Xin hurriedly greeted the old man and hugged him, "Uncle Huang must not be like this." ”

As he spoke, he helped the old man to his place with his own hands, and asked the old man to sit down.

But the old man insisted that he would not accept it.

"Your Majesty can't be like this, Your Majesty is not only the Emperor of Great Qin, but also the patriarch of my Zhao clan. ”

Then he waved his hand to stop Zhao Xin's move to let people arrange seats, shook his head and said: "Lao Yu and the others are already people who will be buried in the earth, and they should no longer participate in these mundane things."

It's just that I heard that my Zhao clan is actually a scum who eats inside and outside!"

The old man said, and then his angry eyes turned to Zhao Hu.

When the latter heard the old man's words, his expression changed drastically.

"No, I didn't, Cui Xiang is a pillar of Great Qin, and I befriended him as Zongzheng for the Zhao family, and my marriage with the Cui family is also arranged by the Empress Dowager......"

"Hmph, what Empress Dowager?!"

Before Zhao Hu finished speaking, one of the old people snorted angrily, "What is the Empress Dowager? No matter how you say it, she is also only a daughter-in-law of my Zhao family, with a foreign surname! She dares to stretch out her hand indiscriminately, and the old man and others will desperately want to get rid of her from my Zhao family tree, does she dare?"

The other old men also snorted coldly.

Everyone present changed color slightly.

Zhao Hu was even more mournful, muttering incoherently in his mouth, "No, this, this is impossible, uncle, you ......"

But no one paid any attention to him anymore.

The old men glanced at him, and then said to Zhao Xin again: "Patriarch, can you hand over this scum to the old man and the others to take back to deal with?"

Such a scum, in my Zhao family, since the ancient God Emperor followed the God Emperor to make meritorious achievements, to the Middle Ages to be feuded and established, to Emperor Taizu's unification of Great Qin, it has never been seen in eternity!

This time we must severely punish with the patriarchal law, so as to warn those who come after us that the patriarchal law must not be lightly violated!"

Zhao Xin paused slightly when he heard this, he invited these old men out of the mountain, but he didn't think that they would deal with Zhao Hu.

Although there are advantages to this, such as the old man's words, from now on, no one will use him to trap the queen mother and say that he is unfilial.

And if the clan disposes of Zhao Hu, no one will say that he has killed the clan.

But in this way, it also invisibly strengthened the power of the clan.

I'm afraid this is also the reason why several old people are so cooperative?

The old man saw that he was a little hesitant, but there was a hint of wisdom in his cloudy eyes, and then he said righteously again: "In addition, there are also the boys of the King of Chu and the King of Qi, who are also bastards.

After the emperor and you clean up the national thieves, if those bastards dare not accept the troops and ask for guilt, the old man and the others will also expel them from the family tree!"

When Zhao Xin heard him say this, his expression couldn't help but move.

Apparently this sentence touched him.

Not only him, but even Nan Cang and the others had their eyes lit up.

Although the king of Chu and others had already raised troops, they would never give up just because they were expelled from the genealogy.

If you are ready to fly, how can you tie your hands and die?

But if these old people come forward together and make this announcement, it will definitely be a huge psychological blow to the rebels.

Thinking of this, Zhao Xin couldn't help but look at this group of smiling old men, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart.

Sure enough, people are old and fine!

This chip, this measure......

It's so good that he can't refuse at all.

That's it!

Zhao Xin weighed it and nodded: "In this way, there will be Uncle Lao Huang and the elders of the ranking clan." ”
