Chapter 423: Outside the City Gate of the Murderous Riot (16th Update)
The caravan left Snowflake Mountain and headed northwest, along the river.
In less than five days, you will be able to reach Yuanjiacheng.
"Zhang Youli, this Bai Ziyi is my cousin after all, can you look at my face and let her get into the carriage? ”
In the past few days, Yuan Qingmei saw Zhang Rang treating Bai Ziyi.
At first, she just didn't see it, although everyone was a relative.
But what the Bai family did to themselves at the beginning was indeed too much.
But after a few days, Yuan Qingmei's heart softened, and she came to Zhang Rang to intercede.
Zhang Rang pouted, "Miss Yuan, you treat the people of the Bai family as relatives, but they don't treat you as relatives! You think she is your cousin, so you want to help." But have you ever thought that the Bai family would exchange your cousin's innocence for goods?"
Yuan Qingmei lowered her head, she naturally knew that Zhang Rang did this for herself.
"Mr. Zhang, I thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid we wouldn't have made it this far. But after all, the Bai family and my Yuan family were good friends in the era. I ...... about this."
"What era is friendship? It's just that you want to cling to this big tree of your Yuan family and take the opportunity to suck a few mouthfuls of blood. Miss Yuan, in the past few days, I have been chatting with Mr. Li Benzheng and Mr. Li. You have grown up watching him since childhood, and he also told me about you. ”
Speaking of this, Zhang Rang sighed with a helpless look.
"Your father is old, and the four brothers and one sister above are all vying for the position of the future heir of the Yuan Family City City Lord. You're the only one you don't want to fight for. Even this time, everyone is already on edge, and you have already stated that you don't want to be a part of it. That's why I took the caravan all the way south, trying to dodge. Sometimes, even if you don't take sides, everyone will regard you as an opponent or an enemy. ”
Yuan Qingmei lowered her head, "I know." Can...... But I'm a brother and sister, do I want a family to fight each other?"
Zhang Rang shook his head, "Miss Yuan, you are kind, I can understand you." But you're so naïve, I can't understand it. Do you think Zhao Zihan has taken a fancy to you? No, his Zhao family just fell in love with the big tree of your Yuan Jiacheng, married you, and became Yuan Jiacheng's uncle, and the Zhao family could get a share of Yuan Jiacheng's interests! And if you marry out immediately, instead of recruiting a son-in-law, then naturally you will not become the heir of Yuan Jiacheng. So, do you think it's just Zhao Zihan who has taken a fancy to you? There must be other people behind it. ”
Zhang Rang continued, "The Jin family and the Bai family are the mother's family of your two elder brothers, and they will definitely do their best to help your two elder brothers overcome all difficulties. Why does Bai Qinghua want to destroy your innocence, it's not to make you disqualified from competition. With one less opponent, the grandson of their Bai family is one step closer to the position of the city lord of the Yuan family. So, you're still too naïve! Everything, how can it really be so simple. ”
Hearing Zhang Rang say this, Yuan Qingmei somewhat understood what was going on.
Originally, Yuan Qingmei just didn't want to express her position, because she really felt that the four brothers were very unhappy.
As for his sister, I secretly don't know how many men there have been, and I heard that they didn't even let go of the guards in their yard.
How could such a person be in charge of Yuan Jiacheng well.
"Mr. Zhang, what should I do?"
Zhang Rang shook his head, "I asked Mr. Li, and he will fully support you." But he is old and his strength is limited. I can help you, but you'll have to think about it yourself. What do you want to be the future city lord of Yuanjia City? Don't think I'm right for the moment, just say yes. After a few days, it seemed that there was some truth in hearing other people's words, and I flinched again. I'm a guy who does something, or he doesn't do it, or he wants to do it, and he will move forward!"
Yuan Qingmei nodded, "What Mr. Zhang said is very true, I should think about this matter first." In addition, Bai Ziyi ......"
"Leave her alone. Now that you are a mud bodhisattva, you can't protect yourself, and you still have the heart to think about others? Think about yourself first. ”
Yuan Qingmei also knew that what Zhang Rang said was not wrong.
Yuan Jiacheng has four sons and two daughters.
The eldest brother Yuan Qingjin and the mother Jin are the objects of the Jin family's support, but this person has good strength, but he is brave and strategic, and he is embarrassed.
The second brother Yuan Qingwan is low-key, but very ruthless. The mother is a servant girl, so her status is low, so she is attached to the third Yuan Qingchi.
The third brother Yuan Qingchi, whose mother is Bai, is the object of the Bai family's support, and has secretly accumulated a very strong force in the Yuan family's city.
The fourth brother Yuan Qingji, whose mother was from a mediocre background, but because she looked the most similar to her father and was deeply favored by her father, she developed an arrogant and domineering character.
As for the fifth sister Yuan Qingyi, she is debauched by nature, and the passers-by on her body are like carp crossing the river.
At this moment, Yuan Qingmei suddenly realized.
Yuan Jiacheng has a father, and it is still Yuan Jiacheng.
But one day, my father is gone.
Who can be in charge of Yuan Jiacheng?
If the eldest brother is the case, he will inevitably give the entire Yuan family city to the Jin family.
If the second brother and the third brother are concerned, they must give Yuan Jiacheng to the Bai family.
As for the four Yuan Qingji, I am afraid that when the Yuan family city does not need the Jin family and the Bai family to make a move, the nearby Lingyun Sword Sect will be able to swallow them.
At this moment, Yuan Qingmei finally realized something.
And at this moment, the caravan finally came to the south gate of Yuanjiacheng not far away.
There was a long line ahead, apparently checking something.
Of course, others need to queue up for inspection, but the Yuan family's own caravan definitely doesn't need it.
Yuanjiacheng is not only a force in the rivers and lakes, but also the city lord of Yuanjiacheng is also the local administrator, although this identity is not officially appointed by the imperial court, but in the north, the Yuan family covers the sky with one hand, they say that here is the city lord of Yuanjiacheng has the final say, then it is the city lord of Yuanjiacheng who has the final say.
This is also the reason why Yuanjiacheng is weakening day by day, but it has not yet been swallowed up!
Because although Yuan Qingmei's branch is not very powerful, and even very weak compared to the entire Yuan family, it is surnamed Yuan after all!
But just as the convoy was moving forward, suddenly, more than 20 people jumped out from both sides of the road.
Among these two dozen people, eight killers went straight to Zhang Rang to kill.
The remaining dozen or so people actually rushed towards Bai Ziyi.
Zhang Rang just glanced at it, and he could determine that these people were all members of the Bai family, and they just wanted to entangle themselves and then save Bai Ziyi.
As for the 1.3 million, Zhang Rang believed that the Bai family would not admit such a humiliating thing.
However, since he left Bai Ziyi by his side, he would not let the other party take it away so easily.
Moreover, it is still in Hedong County.
With the departure of Baijian Villa, after a shock occurred in the rivers and lakes of Hedong County, Hedong County can be said to be completely in the hands of Yuan Shaochu, the king of Jizhou.
So when he got here, Zhang Rang still didn't worry about revealing his true identity.
Since this is the case, then, the strongest of these twenty or so people is just a martial artist who has only gathered three flowers, in front of him, is there any other choice than death?
