Chapter 317: Zhao Qizhi's Crisis!
Ning Zhe's words can be regarded as poking into Zhao Qizhi's heart, and the Zhao family has always been worried about the ranking of the four major families.
The Hu family, the Wu family, the Zhao family, and the Sun family, this ranking has not changed for hundreds of years. If he can really be promoted here, then he Zhao Qizhi will become a strong contender for the next head of the family, in other words, he Zhao Qizhi will also become a person with a face in the Xihai Holy City, so that not like today, a Wu De dares to speak out against him.
However, he was only excited for a moment, then shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Senior, don't be joking, this matter is not easy to talk about." Not to mention that the Zhao family doesn't have this strength now, even if they do, I'm afraid that the Hu family and the Wu family will join forces to suppress us. ”
Ning Zhe stood up with a smile and said proudly: "With my support, what are you afraid of, give me some time, now I need a lot of spirit grass, you bring me all the spirit grass in the Zhao family's treasury, I will be of great use." ”
Although Zhao Qizhi didn't know what Ning Zhe was going to do, out of trust in Ning Zhe, he still moved the spirit grass in the Zhao family's treasury according to Ning Zhe's request and moved all of them to Ning Zhe's room. Fortunately, since Zhao Qizhi returned from his last trip, his status in the Zhao family has improved very quickly, and no one dares to say anything.
When these spirit grasses arrived, Ning Zhe took some time to remove some of the ones he didn't need at all, and asked Zhao Qizhi to move back, which made him retreat, and then arranged a defensive shield in the courtyard.
"Whew...... With so much spirit grass, it should be enough!"
Ning Zhe looked at the mountain-like spirit grass and said secretly in his heart. Then, he sat cross-legged in the air and breathed, breathing from noon to midnight, and finally adjusted the spiritual power in Danhu to the best state.
Seeing the white light in his hand flash, the green flute appeared in front of him, and then he held his hands on the flute, and the spiritual power in his body gushed out and injected into the flute.
Rumble!
The originally ordinary flute suddenly brightened green, and countless green rays rushed out of it, directly rolling up the spiritual grass in the courtyard, and then wrapping it in the middle.
The Dan Lake in Ning Zhe's body suddenly surged, and the spiritual power in the Dan Lake also turned into countless golden droplets, continuously injecting into the middle of the flute along Ning Zhe's hands, and catalyzing the spiritual grass in it through the flute.
I don't know how long it took, the Danhu Lake in Ning Zhe's body was finally almost exhausted, and his face turned pale at this time. After a long sigh of relief, he let go of the flute with both hands, and then took out a bottle of elixir from his bosom and poured it into his mouth. The spiritual power like water dissolves in the abdomen, gradually nourishing the spiritual veins and Danhu Lake that have dried up.
When the spiritual power in Danhu Lake was full again, Ning Zhe sacrificed the flute again and catalyzed the spiritual grass in the courtyard.
At this time, Zhao Qizhi, who was outside, was facing a great crisis, although his status in the Zhao family was gradually improving, but he was not the head of the Zhao family after all. The monks of the family master's family also had a lot of complaints about his series of actions, but he didn't do anything out of the ordinary, so they couldn't catch the handle, so naturally they couldn't make waves.
However, this time it was different, Zhao Qizhi first offended the Wu family among the four major families for an outsider, and provoked a big enemy for the Zhao family. Then he brought that scourge into the Zhao family, and even emptied the spiritual grass in the treasury and handed it all over to Ning Zhe.
This pile of piles has been accumulated one by one, and finally the people of the family head family have a handle in their hands. On the second day after Ning Zhe moved into the Zhao family, Zhao Dehai, the head of the Zhao family, summoned all the monks of the Zhao family to the main hall to discuss matters.
When Zhao Qizhi came to the main hall, he saw that almost all the high-level officials of the Zhao family had already arrived. Several of his own men kept glancing at his emissary, which made him smell something unusual.
"Ahem...... Now that everyone has arrived, let's get started. Zhao Dehai, who was sitting in the middle, coughed lightly twice and said.
Zhao Qizhi's brows furrowed slightly, and he stood in the middle of the hall and arched his hand and said, "Family Master, what is going to be discussed today, why didn't you notify me in advance?"
Hearing his question, Zhao Dehai's face was embarrassed, and he looked at an old man beside him, the old man's name was Zhao He, and like Zhao Qizhi, he was the elder of the Zhao family, and he was also Zhao Qizhi's sworn enemy.
Seeing that the eyes of the head of the family were on him, Zhao He's heart secretly scolded him for not being able to support the wall with mud, and then he stood up, looked at Zhao Qizhi and said, "Zhao Qizhi, don't you pretend to be stupid, don't you know what it's for?"
Zhao Qizhi was also shocked when he saw Zhao He stand up, could it be that the other party was going to tear his face today?
However, his face did not show the slightest timidity, but said lightly: "Zhao He, I really don't know what is going on. ”
Zhao He was suddenly furious, pointed at Zhao Qizhi and shouted: "Bastard, you first offended the Wu family for an outsider, and now you actually brought that scourge into the Zhao family's house." That's it, you actually relied on the convenience of controlling the treasury to carry out the spiritual grass in the treasury. You say, you are not greedy for Mo's family property, what is it to enrich your own pockets?"
After listening to his words, Zhao Qizhi's eyes swelled, and he looked directly at an old man next to him, who was the guard of the treasury. Thinking about Zhao Qizhi's unauthorized use of spirit grass, he must have reported it to Zhao He.
When the old man saw Zhao Qizhi's gaze coming, he immediately shrank back to the crowd, not daring to look at him again. And Zhao Qizhi naturally understood that now was not the time to settle accounts with him, so he just snorted coldly and turned his head, looked at Zhao He and said coldly: "That's right, these are all facts, but what I did all this was for the good of the Zhao family and for the sake of the future of the Zhao family, is there anything wrong?"
"What, for the future of the Zhao family, I'm phew!"
Zhao He jumped up suddenly, his face turned red like a pig's liver, and pointed at Zhao Qizhi and scolded angrily: "You keep saying that it is for the family? For the sake of the family, you are going to offend the Wu family, which is several points more powerful than us? For the sake of the family, you brought in an outsider, and also emptied the treasury for him to squander? Don't pick up the nice things to say, now you must atone for your sins, first bring that outsider to the head of the family to dispose of, and then you yourself resign from all positions and leave the Zhao family." That's the only way you'll be able to undo the mistakes you've made, you know?"
Zhao Qizhi sneered and shook his head and said, "In the final analysis, you Zhao He still want to drive me out of the Zhao family." But the Zhao family doesn't just do what you say. As I said, Senior Ning wants those spirit grasses to be useful, and he will understand when he gets out of the customs. Master of the house, you can't wait to get rid of me, do you?"
After speaking, Zhao Qizhi's eyes fell on Zhao Dehai, who was sitting in the middle.
