"You are so bold that you dare to accuse the elders. The head of the house couldn't hold his face, and scolded unceremoniously at the moment.

Gongsun Jingji raised his eyebrows and glanced at him, although his attitude was humble, but his tone was extremely sharp, "Uncle, I'm just telling the truth, why are you so excited, I don't know, I think you have a weak heart." ”

"Besides, are they only allowed to frame me, and not to refute me?

"You—" The head of the house was so blocked that he couldn't speak, and his face was extremely green.

Gongsun Jinghao saw that he didn't admit it, his eyes widened in anger, and he yelled angrily, "You lie! You obviously took someone to the ancestral hall, if you hadn't been bumped into by my people, you would have helped outsiders steal the sword, and you are still arguing here, Gongsun Jingji, I really underestimated you, I didn't expect you to be so insidious!"

"Third brother, I know that you have a good relationship with your eldest brother, but you don't like me a lot, but you can't blame me for everything in order to exonerate your eldest brother! After all, we are brothers, not enemies, and I have never coveted the position of the head of the family, is it necessary for you to kill me completely!" Gongsun Jingji's words seemed to tell his grievances, but he pointed to the point the motives of Gongsun Jinghao and Gongsun Yaori for dragging him into the water, and there was a suspicion of deliberately planting and shirking.

"Gongsun Jingji, you are spurting blood, grandpa, don't believe him, my people really saw him take people to the ancestral hall tunnel, and I also saw with my own eyes that the man lit up the sword, I want to say a word nonsense, the sky thunders. Gongsun Jinghao knelt and kowtowed, his attitude was very sincere.

When the old man Gongsun heard that the sword was lit, his pupils dilated suddenly, and he was excited, "Is this true?"

"It's true, I don't dare to lie, grandpa. ”

When Gongsun Jingji heard this, he sneered, "Third brother, your ability to make up stories is getting stronger and stronger, since you said that your people saw it with their own eyes, then you should tell me, who did I bring?"

Gongsun Jinghao followed him for many days, Cheng Zhu was in his chest, and suddenly blurted out, "I don't know who it is, but I know that that person was sent by the Pu family, some time ago you had a close relationship with the Pu family, I know it well, as long as grandpa goes to check, he will definitely be able to find out the clues." ”

Before, they didn't dare to make a noise, so they only followed secretly, so many details were not dug up, but if grandpa and father were willing to investigate openly, he wouldn't believe that Gongsun Jingji's shady deeds would not be found.

When the head of the Gongsun family heard what he said, he immediately believed a little, glared at Gongsun Jingji, raised his eyebrows and shouted angrily, "Gongsun Jingji, you are really scheming, pretending to be sensible and well-behaved in front of the old man, but I didn't expect it to be a belly of bad water!"

After that, he looked at the old man Gongsun and said indignantly, "Father, Gongsun Jingji has caused such a catastrophe, you can't be partial anymore, if you want to punish Yao Ri, then treat him equally, and punish him severely." ”

"The head of the family, the eldest brother has been arrested, and the human and material evidence is there, and he can't rely on it. As for my crimes, they are just one side of the story, and it is too hasty to convict me. If you really suspect that I am colluding with the Pu family, you can send someone to investigate, I am not afraid of shadows, and I am not afraid of you to investigate. Of course, you'd better find out and return my innocence, otherwise I have to ask my ancestors to comment on me. Gongsun Jingji straightened his spine and had a strong attitude, which was not false at all.

Seeing that he was so calm and so straightforward, several elders suddenly lost much confidence, and they couldn't tell who was true and who was fake for a while.

Seeing that the two sides were arguing with each other, the old man Gongsun was so angry that he slapped his palm on the table again, and shouted angrily, "Bastard, what time is it now, you are still thinking about right and wrong, shirking responsibility, isn't it messy enough! Now that the sword is exposed, we only have three days to think about it, if we don't come up with a countermeasure, our Gongsun family's treasure will really fall into the hands of thieves." ”

Gongsun Jingji saw that he was frowning, and felt guilty, so he immediately clenched his fists and proposed, "Grandpa, since they suspect me of colluding with the Pu family, and there is no time to investigate at the moment, in order to show my innocence and prove that I have no selfish intentions, I propose to make the sword public to the world, and let the heroes of the world come to test the sword." This sword has been silent for so many years, and after dozens of generations of my grandson's family, no one has pulled it out, and if I wait any longer, I am afraid that a good sword will really be wasted. ”

"What's more, the Gongsun family is now not as good as the next generation, and every year is not as good as the year, if it really declines completely, this sword will sooner or later fall into the hands of outsiders, it is better to let the sword choose its own master, and also forget the ancestors' wishes. ”

Gongsun Jingji is a far-sighted person, he has ambitions, but he is not limited to being the head of the Gongsun family, leading the Gongsun family to dominate in Yanqing City.

What he really wants is to return the Gongsun family to the glory of the Xuanshen Empire.

Although the elders in the family never mentioned the things of that era, he had been yearning for it since he was a child, and he also had great respect for the Xuanshen Monarch, so he collected a lot of news about that era from adults, and the more he knew, the more he longed for it.

Therefore, when he heard that the owner of the Qingliang Medicine Shop was the inheritor of the Xuanshen Monarch, he seemed to see the hope of reviving the Xuanshen Empire.

He wanted to do a great job, instead of staying in this smoky green city as a frog at the bottom of a well with a slap of the eye, watching the treasure of the Xuanshen Monarch be buried.

This is also the reason why he is willing to cooperate with the cool medicine shop to act in such a play.

However, his words frightened the uncle and several brothers and sisters present, and everyone stared at him with white faces.

"Are you crazy, a Situ family is enough to make people collapse, you still have to make it public, I think you wish my Gongsun family would decline soon, right? The fifth uncle couldn't bear it anymore, and was the first to reprimand angrily.

"Hmph, you bastard, in order to prove your innocence, you actually want to catch up with the entire Gongsun family, why did the second brother give birth to you a selfish white-eyed wolf. The fourth uncle was also so angry that he stomped his feet.

Gongsun Jingji raised his eyes to meet their angry gaze, "Then what should you say? Hand over the sword to the Situ family? Isn't that still betraying the family and betraying the ancestors' wishes!"

"You-"

"If the uncles are really good for the Gongsun family, if they really remember the ancestors' wishes, it is better to consider my proposal and let the sword choose by themselves, it is better than being robbed by force. Gongsun Jingji sincerely suggested.

When the old man Gongsun heard this, he slapped the board without waiting for others to refute it, "Okay, I agree with this proposal." Let people snatch it, it is better to take the initiative to send it out. Even if the sword is no longer the property of my grandson's family in the future, we have finally fulfilled the last wish of our ancestors and found an inheritor for the sword. I believe that the person who can inherit this sword must be a gentleman with outstanding talent and excellent character, and he will definitely thank my grandson for his great kindness. So no matter what, my grandson's family only makes friends with gentlemen, and never bows to villains!"
