Many people in the Cui family realized at this moment that this competition seemed to be a farce caused by Zhao Changhe, a gangster who was impulsive and irritable and did not care about the occasion, and Cui Wenjing spoiled his daughter and caused this farce...
But in fact, from the moment Zhao Changhe spoke, his hidden intention was to use his sword skills to intimidate people and scare Cui Yuanteng, a young man from a noble family with a weak will, into confessing.
The key evidence was missing, and now it’s here!
This is not a brainless gangster at all. This rough and reckless image is too deceptive. Especially the scar. If you say that this guy was painted on purpose, people will believe it.
People looked at Cui Wenjing and Zhao Changhe's faces and smiles, and they all thought: Damn, you two foxes, one old and one young, you two should stop being father-in-law and son-in-law, and just stay together. Look at Cui Yuanyang next to you, grinning like a fool, totally unaware of what's going on, just like an outsider.
But why Cui Wenjue
To compete for the title of master
For this, there is no need to start with Cui Yuanyang. Even if Cui Yuanyang is killed and Cui Yuanyong and Cui Yuancheng are blamed, it will not shake Cui Wenjing! Besides, the Cui family has the Qinghe Sword, so it is easier to solve this kind of case than other families. What are you thinking
Cui Wenjing also asked leisurely: "Second brother, what are you thinking about? After careful consideration, it is simply the act of an idiot."
"Ha." Since the relationship had already been torn apart, Cui Wenjue simply said directly: "You have lost the Qinghe Sword. How can you still have the dignity to sit on the position of the head of the family?"
Zhao Changhe thought to himself that this guy had really been after the Qinghe Sword from the beginning... He deliberately set up a mystery of brother killing sister with no clues. It would be easy for the Cui family to have the first reaction to ask for the Qinghe Sword, so that he could use this to find out the truth about the Qinghe Sword.
He should be able to confirm that there is something wrong with the Qinghe Sword... Once the problem with the Qinghe Sword is revealed in public, Cui Wenjing will definitely step down. No matter how high his rank in the world is, it will be useless as the family inheritance has its own rules.
For this purpose, they have made many preparations. First, they set the tone and pinned the suspicion on the brothers Cui Yuanyong and Cui Yuancheng. If Cui Wenjing defends the brothers and drags the matter out, it may not shake him, but when it comes to competing for the next head of the family, it will be a problem...
If Cui Wenjing sees through the conspiracy and extends the suspicion to everyone, then there will be no way to avoid the Qinghe Sword. The ability of the Qinghe Sword must be used to investigate the suspicion of everyone, and the problem of the Qinghe Sword will be exposed.
As a result, Cui Wenjing's response was just like a textbook. He didn't protect his son from the beginning, and went straight to jail. He watched the process coldly. He already knew who was leading the rhythm and who was the most excited. What is the allusion of touching the sword... Cui Wenjue was almost certain that even if his son really touched the sword, Cui Wenjing would have a way to make his hand clean of black ash! The ninth place on the Heavenly Ranking wants to trick you, a little kid. Isn't it easy
Even without Zhao Changhe, Cui Wenjing would be able to calm the matter down. It's probably just that he lacks key evidence, which might lead to endless quarrels between the two parties within the party.
But now, there is nothing left to tear.
Cui Wenjing laughed: "The Qinghe Sword is lost? What nonsense are you talking about?"
He said with a wave of his hand.
The Qinghe Sword flew out of his hand and flew back to the Bronze Hall, as if an invisible hand was holding it up from below, and it landed steadily and accurately on the sword stand in the hall. What was particularly magical was that during the flight back to the temple, the sky seemed to be pulled by a celestial phenomenon, and the clouds seemed to be pulled apart by the flying sword, so the clouds broke and the moon appeared, the Jiang River was shallow, and the bright moon was beautiful.
Many elders were so moved that their voices trembled: "If this is not the magic sword, what else can it be? Wen Jue, you are blinded by greed and slandered your brother and made up stories about the magic sword. You deserve to die!"
Cui Wenjue laughed and stopped arguing.
Cui Wenjing was just performing a trick, that was his own ninth-best strength, not the glory of the magic sword. However, now that the "evidence was irrefutable", he was no longer qualified to ask Cui Wenjing to show everyone the magic sword's special ability. Cui Wenjing could have refused in a tone, saying that the magic sword was not for you to play with, do you deserve it
The big thing is gone.
He just said to Cui Wenjing calmly: "Brother, there are some things that you know."
Cui Wenjing said calmly: "What I know is that no matter what you think happened to the sword, if you are doing this for the sake of your family, you would not use this method, so why bother to say more?"
Cui Wenjue nodded: "Brother is right."
Cui Wenjing said slowly: "Cui Wenjue and Cui Yuanteng have been killing each other, framing their sons and nephews, and trying to kill the head of the family. According to the family rules, they will be stripped of all their positions and imprisoned in the prison until the family decides on the punishment. All members of Cui Wenjue's branch will be expelled from today and exiled to the northern frontier. I will select another capable person for the post of Qinghe County Governor and recommend him to Your Majesty."
Cui Wenjue sighed with a gloomy face and said nothing.
Zhao Changhe: “…”
The governor of a county, a frontier official, you can dismiss him at will, replace him at will, and even execute him first and report to the emperor later without the emperor's consent
Is Qinghe your home
—Actually, our family is not too afraid of that Jun.
For the first time, Zhao Changhe truly realized the horror of the top families. It was hard to say in prosperous times, but in troubled times, such a family would be the ultimate hegemon, ready to compete for supremacy at any time. Why would they need to look at the emperor's face
If that's the case, then what's the point of putting the Great Xia Dragon Bird here... Cui Wenjing glanced at him and said with a smile, "You're making fun of us, Yangyang."
Cui Yuanyang had been in a daze, and at this moment he let out an "Ah" as if he had just woken up from a dream.
"Take the guest to my study. I'll take care of some things here. I'll be back soon. I have something to tell the guest."
Cui Yuanyang's heart was pounding.
This is not the attitude to treat a "son-in-law" who you don't know if he can succeed. Can anyone enter Cui Wenjing's study
Who was the last visitor to come in
Wang Daoning, the head of the Wang family of Langya!
She really wanted to run back and pull those long-mouthed maids to have a look, you thought this bandit couldn't enter my boudoir, but now look where he has entered!
… …
Cui Wenjing's study is actually not much different from that of an ordinary scholar. After all, Zhao Changhe can't tell how valuable the various utensils are, as long as they look elegant and generous.
The biggest difference is that in a place like this, Cui Yuanyang seems to have acquired some temperament. Her original cute and silly look is gone. She is actually sitting there quietly making tea, with her sleeves lightly rolled up, looking like a gentle and graceful lady. Zhao Changhe finds it quite interesting.
"What are you looking at?" Cui Yuanyang didn't dare to speak loudly, and whispered: "This is the etiquette of entertaining guests. Do you really think that Yangyang has no manners? This has been practiced before!"
"Yes, yes, Yangyang has practiced it before." Zhao Changhe almost laughed out loud: "What is the secret of this tea?"
"Biluochun."
"..." Every time Zhao Changhe heard these things that were similar to those in the real world, he felt distracted.
And this is actually Gongfu tea. Modern people's way of making money by roasting tea and making Gongfu tea is no longer there.
But Zhao Changhe knew that the revelation would not be far away. Wasn't this what they were going to talk about in the study this time
"I can't believe it would be my second uncle." Cui Yuanyang was sighing, "My second uncle is very important to the family. His position alone cannot be replaced by just anyone. Moreover, he has great influence. Daddy should be in a lot of trouble this time."
Zhao Changhe said, "You should be mentally prepared. Those who are not of this level cannot compete for the top position. You should have known that it would not be an ordinary concubine or illegitimate son. Otherwise, why do you think others are so easily led by the rhythm, and only think about your brother? Because others are not of the same level, it is useless to make trouble."
Cui Yuanyang whispered: "But I still don't understand what they are trying to do..."
Zhao Changhe said: "If I'm not mistaken, your father is actually the real royal party, His Majesty's group. Your second uncle may have been bewitched by some traitors, and his ultimate goal is not the Cui family, but Daxia."
There was a loud laugh from outside the door. "I am a little hesitant now. I feel that you are a natural born warrior, and you should ride a horse and roam the world; but I also feel that you have some political potential, and you can go to the court for a while."
Zhao Changhe said without even turning his head: "Forget it. If I really involve myself in the imperial court with my small weight, I will be devoured by you old foxes sooner or later without leaving any bones or residue."
Cui Wenjing sat down opposite him, happily drank a cup of tea handed to him by his daughter, and said leisurely: "So you are determined to stay in the martial arts world and ignore all the suspicions about your identity? But you should face it now."
Zhao Changhe asked curiously, "What are we facing?"
Cui Wenjing sipped his tea leisurely: "Daxia Dragon Bird, do you want one?"
Zhao Changhe's eyes suddenly lit up.
Can you really take it away
