Chapter 40: Miscalculation

Chu Zongguang's anger was not extinguished because of what Chu Xiu took out.

He stared at Chu Xiu and shouted angrily: "You killed people when you were angry, do you know what Shen Rong's status is in the Shen family? If he dies, how will the Shen family deal with my Chu family?"

By doing this, you are simply putting my Chu family in injustice!"

Chu Xiu frowned secretly, his cheap father was too shruggy, even if the Shen family was strong, he wouldn't be afraid of being like this, right?

But fortunately, for this matter, Chu Xiu had already thought of the words and solutions.

Chu Xiu arched his hand and said: "Father, don't panic, although the person is dead, my Chu family is not without other strategies."

The Shen family is stronger than my Chu family when it comes to foundation, but it is not strong enough to crush it.

The real reason for the Shen family to dominate the Tongzhou Mansion was actually the Shen Bai of the Shen family, who had already entered the Canglan Sword Sect.

The name of the Canglan Sword Sect is big, but my Chu family may not be able to find a backer. ”

Chu Zongguang glared at Chu Xiu and said, "The Canglan Sword Sect is the number one faction in Wei County, ranking among the seven sects and eight factions, where can my Chu family find a backer?"

Chu Xiu's eyes narrowed and said, "What about the Seven Sects and Eight Sects, it's not the Northern and Southern Buddhist Sects, and even the Northern and Southern Buddhist Sects are not strong enough to dominate the entire rivers and lakes."

Our Chu family can't find the Jianghu sect as a backer, but we can find the imperial court as a backer!

Although Wei County is called the land of Northern Yan, it is actually a matter of listening to the tune and not listening to the announcement, and the Northern Yan court is helpless.

At this time, if my Chu family falls to the Beiyan Imperial Court, although my Chu family's strength is not looked down upon by the Northern Yan Imperial Court, at least it can be regarded as a martial arts force that actively surrenders to Beiyan, and can play an exemplary role, I believe that the Beiyan Imperial Court will not treat us badly.

If we have the Northern Yan Imperial Court as a backer, the Canglan Sword Sect will not dare to touch us. ”

The elders of the Chu family glanced at each other, although the plan that Chu Xiu said sounded a bit exaggerated, but after thinking about it carefully, it really made some sense.

The Northern Yan Imperial Court has wanted this place of Wei County for a long time, but the Wei County Martial Arts is tough, and the Northern Yan Court does not want to turn against the Wei County Martial Arts, so it did not use tough measures.

But the Chu family came from Dongqi before, and they didn't have any sense of belonging to Wei County, if they could really go to the Beiyan court through this matter, this would definitely be a good thing for the Chu family.

Chu Xiu was silent on the side, the idea he gave to the Chu family could not be said to be a bad idea, but it could only be said to be half the best.

Defecting to the Northern Yan Imperial Court, it is indeed very likely that as he said before, as the first Wei County force to defect to the Yan State, the Chu family will receive preferential treatment.

But it is also possible that the Chu family will anger the entire Wei County Martial Arts, and thus be targeted, or even torn apart by the angry Wei County Martial Arts.

Of course, that's all for later, at that time, it is not certain that Chu Xiu is not in the Chu family, will the Chu family be retaliated against by Weijun Wulin, what does it matter to him?

Chu Zongguang's face showed a gloomy color, he didn't see the flaws in Chu Xiu's plan, he just didn't want to cause trouble.

After a while, Chu Zongguang snorted coldly and said, "Chu Xiu, I said last time, if you cause trouble again, I will take all your business and let you go to the ancestral hall to reflect, but you take my words as a deaf ear!"

This time you caused such a big incident, how to deal with it depends on the opinion of the Shen family, now you give me to the ancestral hall to reflect! If it is because of you that my Chu family is targeted by the Shen family, I can't spare you!"

As soon as he heard this, Chu Xiu's eyes suddenly showed a hint of coldness, Chu Zongguang's performance was a little unexpected for him, he didn't expect Chu Zongguang to be like this.

According to the excuse that Chu Xiu came up with, it was the Chu family who was blackmailed by the Shen family first, and he was angry and killed, Dingtian was a little impulsive, and he said the countermeasures in public, but Chu Zongguang was still afraid of conflict with the Shen family and wanted to punish him.

"Come on, take Chu Xiu to the ancestral hall, send someone to guard it, and give me a good reflection!"

Chu Zongguang waved his hand, and the two subordinates came over in embarrassment, looking at Chu Xiu, hoping that Chu Xiu could cooperate, after all, they were just subordinates, and they didn't dare to be rude to Chu Xiu.

Chu Xiu didn't have a seizure on the spot, but obediently followed the two subordinates and left.

To be honest, he miscalculated this time.

Chu Xiu has always been very calm, even when he was temporarily trying to kill Shen Rong, he thought of the excuses and ways to break the game properly.

It's just that the only thing he miscalculated was Chu Zongguang, he really couldn't imagine what his cheap father was thinking in his heart, as the head of the family, he was so timid and afraid, God knows how the Chu family gained a foothold in Tongzhou Mansion in the first place.

After Chu Xiu was pressed down, Chu Kai, the boss in the hall who had not spoken before, showed ecstasy in his eyes, and he was a little incredulous.

None of his three younger brothers have been honest, especially recently, even if Chu Kai is arrogant, he can feel that his position as the heir of the Chu family is no longer stable.

As a result, it was only a few months, first the fourth Chu was injured, and then Chu Sheng made a big mistake and was locked up.

And Chu Xiu, who posed the greatest threat to him, is now killing himself and killing Shen Rong, the chief housekeeper of the Shen family, who was deprived of all his power and imprisoned in the ancestral hall for reflection, doesn't this mean that the position of the heir has not been robbed of by him?

As soon as he thought of this, Chu Kai was a little complacent, his three idiot brothers had exhausted their calculations, calculated and calculated, and as a result, they all calculated themselves, and in the end, the position of the heir of the lord of the family was still his!

Chu Zongguang waved his hand gloomily, let everyone disperse, and said to Steward Chen: "You go to the Shen family, lower your posture, and ask them how they can expose this matter, my Chu family has absolutely no intention of conflicting with the Shen family." ”

Steward Chen wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything, so he could only sigh and leave.

In the Shen family, because Shen Rong came to see Chu Xiu and only brought his henchman Wang Er, no one else knew that Shen Rong was dead, until Steward Chen came to the Shen family, everyone in the Shen family knew that Shen Rong was dead, which immediately caused an uproar in the Shen family, and someone immediately notified Shen Mo, who was in retreat.

Shen Mo is not very old, only in his early thirties, and his appearance is handsome, not like the head of a family, but like a suave son of a family.

is very similar to the Li family, the Shen family also died unexpectedly because of the old family master, and Shen Mo hurriedly took over the position of the head of the family.

It's just that Shen Mo at that time was almost overshadowed by those elders of the Shen family because he had no prestige, and as a result, Shen Mo was angry and beheaded several elders of the Shen family, and threatened on the spot that as long as the Shen family had his brother in the Canglan Sword Sect, it would not collapse, and everyone else would be the same if they were missing.

After a turmoil, Shen Mo used the heads of several elders to establish his position as the head of the family, and also let the people in Tongzhou Mansion know that although the new head of the Shen family is young, his ruthlessness and decisiveness are far superior to his father.

At this time, Shen Mo was in retreat, and since he took control of the Shen family, Shen Mo actually didn't care much about the Shen family.

A few years ago, he had followed his brother Shen Bai to the Canglan Sword Sect once, and that experience refreshed Shen Mo's three views, letting him know what a real martial arts sect is, as far as the Shen family's family business is concerned, in the eyes of the Canglan Sword Sect, it is not worth mentioning at all.

Since then, Shen Mo has been crazy in retreat and penance, wanting to join the Canglan Sword Sect, but unfortunately although he and Shen Bai are siblings, their own talents are too different.

Shen Bai is at the top in terms of talent and understanding, while he, Shen Mo, can only be said to be above average.

This kind of talent is enough to join the Canglan Sword Sect, especially since Shen Bai is still a closed disciple of the head of the Canglan Sword Sect, it is no problem to include him in the Canglan Sword Sect.

But the problem is that with his strength and talent, he can only be an outer disciple after joining the Canglan Sword Sect.

The elder brother is the descendant disciple of the head of the sect, but his younger brother is just an ordinary outer disciple, and Shen Mo can't afford to lose this face.

Therefore, he is now also using all his time to penance, in order to become an inner disciple after joining the Canglan Sword Sect in the future.

After being woken up from the retreat, Shen Mo's expression was a little unkind, but after the next person told Shen Mo the news of Shen Rong's death, his face suddenly became gloomy.

To be honest, Shen Rong is not so important in Shen Mo's heart, although he called Shen Rong Uncle Rong when he was a child, he even dared to kill his own uncles, those elders of the Shen family and other uncles, what is a subordinate?

He gave Shen Rong such a high status, just because he couldn't trust the descendants and collateral clansmen of the Shen family.

Although Shen Rong's ability and strength are very average, and even very greedy, at least he is loyal enough to know who gave him the power in his body, in other words, he Shen Rong is just a dog of Shen Mo, not a dog of the Shen family, but a dog belonging to him Shen Mo.

But it also depends on the owner to beat the dog, not to mention that someone dares to kill his dog now!
