Standing on the roof of Yueyang Tower, the second master of the Su family suddenly realized the words in a long and short sentence that had been introduced to Yunmengzhou in the past few days:
[It’s cold at high places].
He only felt the wind blowing from all directions, and it became many times colder in an instant, making him feel chilled all over.
When he looked at the tall figure below, he suddenly understood that what made him chill was not the cold winter wind that had always been there, but the former lackey who suddenly changed his face.
He regretted very much. He regretted that he had been bewitched by this white-eyed wolf for so many years. He actually handed over so many things to him, allowing him to unknowingly grow the fruits of the fourth house through the land of his second house.
"Su Yuanjie, I have put so much trust in you in vain. You have deliberately planned to betray me! How can a person like you, who seeks glory behind the Lord's back, stand in front of a hall full of distinguished guests?"
Although the accusation made by the second master of the Su family was sincere, it was completely pale.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Su Laosi laughed loudly, as if he wanted to release all the humiliation of these years!
After a long smile, he suddenly turned solemn and said, "Su Yuanren! You don't need to confuse right and wrong here!"
"If you are still the same as before, I am willing to continue to be an idle cloud and a crane, even if you suffer some humiliation in the eyes of outsiders. But you have already ignored the bottom line of human ethics by killing your killer in public!"
"If I still walk with you, I will be a helper of the tiger, and I will become a person worse than a beast like you!"
"Look, the third brother is still looking at you with his eyes open! He can't understand that the brother who has held his hand since childhood, the brother who usually recited poems and composed poems, was gentle and polite, would actually be tempted by power. Come down and raise the butcher knife towards him!"
"Think about it, what father taught us back then, and how you pretended to be in front of father, that brothers and sisters respect each other, respect the elders and the young. Do these words only hold true when you are the weaker party?"
"Su Yuanren! If I were you, how could I speak so boldly? How could I face this room full of distinguished guests? How could I face tens of thousands of people in the Su family? How could I stand between heaven and earth!"
The powerful words were clearly transmitted to the ears of everyone present. When they looked at the second master of the Su family, they were filled with a layer of contempt and contempt.
With those glares on his back, the second master of the Su family suddenly felt that he had become the biggest clown in this scene, enduring everyone's teasing and contempt.
But obviously, today is his protagonist, his grand event, and the highest peak of his life!
How did it all come to be like this!
How did all this come to be like this!
He clenched his fist tightly, his face turned red, and suddenly his body froze, and he leaned back straight, hitting the ground, and fainted from anger!
Su Laosi leaned down and looked at Su Laosan's deadpan face, "Third brother, look at it, people's hearts have their backs after all. I think you can rest in peace."
He reached out his hand, gently stroked Su Laosan's eyes, and closed his eyes.
Then, he bent down and picked him up, "Third brother, he won't let you go upstairs, I will take you up."
Although he was about the same height as Su Laosan, his body shape was quite different. A dead person was much heavier than a living person. It was very difficult for him to pick him up, and his steps were even more wobbly and shaky. Trembling, he was as clumsy and reluctant as a child lifting a sledgehammer, but no one laughed, and some of the many eyes were filled with awe.
"Fourth Master! Let me help you!"
"Fourth Master, let me help you!"
I don’t know who shouted first, and it immediately won the support of the rest of the people. Many Su family members stepped forward and stretched out their hands to help support Su Laosan’s body. In this way, a group of people climbed onto the Yueyang Tower in an awkward but enthusiastic way. Top floor.
Looking at this shocking scene, the guests in the hall looked solemn and solemn.
Although such scandals have occurred in the Su family today, it is still a matter worthy of praise that it can end like this.
At this time, a Su family member suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Fourth Master! Now the head of the family is seriously ill, the second master made a big mistake, and the third master died on the spot. As the only legitimate son of the old husband, you deserve to inherit the position of the head of the family! Please take your place, Fourth Master!"
As soon as these words came out, the originally lively rooftop felt as if a basin of ice water had been poured down on it, and it instantly became silent.
Making such a big deal? Or is it for the position of the head of the family?
At this moment, Su Laosi smiled and waved his hand, "I said, I am used to a laid-back temperament. I was willing to follow my second brother in the first place because I was too lazy to make calculations. The position of the head of the family is not a throne for me. , but a prison. Let niece Yan Yan be the head of the house!"
He said: "However, the Su family is currently in turmoil. As the only director in our generation and the elder, I will naturally try my best to help niece Yanyan secure this position! If the eldest brother wakes up from now on, I will naturally not mention anything. But if there are any ambitious people who still want to seize the throne and usurp power, then don’t blame me for being rude!"
After hearing this, a great scholar couldn't help but stand up and praise: "Fourth Master is noble and upright! This is the style of my father!"
"The four sons of the Su family all had good reputations in the past, but now it seems that the fourth master is the truly outstanding person and the real backbone of the Su family!"
"As the saying goes, a hero appears in times of crisis. The fourth master is like the sword in the box. He doesn't show his strength or reveal anything on weekdays. Only when the crisis comes, will he know the benefits!"
Everyone praised him one after another. It has to be said that this kind of behavior of being able to take without taking away and not using power to bully others is very able to win moral praise from everyone.
"You guys are overly complimentary."
Su Laosi waved his hand and let out a long sigh, "I don't know what happened to the Su family? I just did something that was part of my status, how could I deserve such praise? ”
Everyone was stunned when they heard this, yes! He just did a few things that his status should do, but he seemed to be so outstanding. It's true that people are afraid of comparison!
The temptation of power is indeed difficult for ordinary people to resist!
Su Laosi turned around, looked at everyone, and said in a deep voice: "What I want is for the Su family to be united, for internal and external peace, and for the family to continue to develop and prosper. Are the Su family gentlemen present here willing to join me?"
Several powerful figures in the Su family said in unison: "I am willing to work with Fourth Master to protect the peace of the Su family and help the family prosper!!"
Two or three clan elders also stood up, "Fourth, we are also willing to work with you to protect the peace of the Su family and help the family prosper!"
Su Laosi looked at Su Yanyan, who had been silent since Su Laosan died, "Niece Yanyan, what do you think?"
Su Yanyan looked at Su Laosi calmly, just looking at him without saying a word.
The passionate atmosphere that had just arisen became strange again under such gaze.
No one would think that this glance was about love.
In this case, this glance must contain some unusual and thoughtful information.
"Fourth uncle."
Su Yanyan finally spoke, as if he had broken open a secret room that was about to run out of air, and everyone felt as if they could breathe freely.
"Can you promise in front of everyone that you will never take your position as head of the family?"
Su Laosi's face froze and he hesitated.
Su Yanyan's smile was very meaningful, "Look, Fourth Uncle said it so grandly, why are you hesitating now?"
Su Laosi coughed lightly, "I just feel chilled."
He sighed, "I think I have a temperament like Xianyun Yehe. Because I couldn't stand the behavior of the second brother and the third brother, I stood up angrily to help you take charge of the overall situation. I never thought that you would be so suspicious of me. Is it possible that I would be so jealous in your eyes?" Everyone in the world should work hard and think hard for the position of the head of the family, right?"
Many people couldn't help but nod. It's true. Look at the noble and upright Fourth Master, but in the end, Miss Su said this. Who else would sleep with him?
Snapped!
Snapped!
Snapped!
There was a burst of applause, and a man walked out of the crowd with a smile and clapped his hands. He looked at Su Laosi and said with a smile: "Who said that the fourth master of the Su family just made up the numbers? I think this is the thought, and the other three Together they can’t compare to you!”
Su Laosi frowned, "Who are you?"
"It doesn't matter who I am." Xia Jingyun said with a smile: "What matters is, where do you stand? Where is your mind?"
Su Laosi frowned, "I don't understand what you are talking about."
"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. We'll just use the evidence to speak."
Xia Jingyun looked at Su Laosi with a smile, "Fourth Master, have you ever thought about a question, why is Mr. Xun, who has always been the right-hand man of the first house, not here on an occasion like today?"
Su Laosi's expression suddenly changed.
