Chapter 271: Re-election of the head of the family
"The Zheng family doesn't have the person you want."
Zheng Xilai took a sip of this fine Pu'er. The tea soup was orange-yellow, rich in flavor, and durable for brewing for a long time.
Well, not bad, not bad. I need to buy some extra this time - it’s not too shameful to give it as a gift... I can’t refuse this good tea...
Zheng Xilai denied it so directly that Zou Shicheng was so angry that he wanted to slam the table and curse... But maybe it was because he was under someone else's roof that the hot-tempered general did not have an attack after all.
When Zheng Xi came to see him, his face was livid but he didn't get angry. He thought that this guy had actually made some progress - for a rough martial artist, this guy finally looked like a family master.
Zou Shicheng said in a deep voice: "I followed you all the way, and the Zheng family that just arrived... Patriarch Zheng, I am not just like a headless fly."
After a pause, he looked at Zheng Xilai's image of sitting as steady as Mount Tai, and raised his eyebrows: "Otherwise, I, Zou Shicheng, would not be able to bear the responsibility for leading two thousand Daxia cavalry troops without permission."
Zheng Xilai put down the tea, but this action made all the elders and children in the Zheng family hall tremble in their hearts.
Because everyone familiar with it knows that the teacup in Zheng Xilai's hand is an antique, and it was originally from the official kiln of the former imperial court... He has always been gentle.
But this time, the teacup made a crisp and clear clinking sound.
"It turns out that the head of the Zou family knows what's going on."
Zheng Xilai's voice suddenly sounded cold, as if it was cold winter.
Zou Shicheng didn't know why, or maybe he knew why, but he was a head shorter than Zheng Xilai... After leaving the three-acre land in Nanling, he seemed to have lost a bit of confidence.
However, thinking about the fact that he was riding two thousand horses away, Zou Shicheng also knew that this trip was definitely not for the purpose of shaking hands and making peace - on the contrary, Zou Shicheng had already had four words in his stomach.
Nothing can be broken or established.
"boom!"
Zou Shicheng still slapped the table. This action meant that the situation escalated directly.
Zheng Xilai muttered - it didn't take long for his true colors to be revealed after he praised him? But he remained calm and was good at striking later. After all, he had the upper hand last time. I didn't expect that kid to survive even though he was dead, right?
It's very puzzling to say why Zheng Xilai, who had basically never suffered any mistakes, fell into the hands of You Chuiyun once. It's quite puzzling... He even asked the ancestor of the Zheng family many times for advice.
What kind of fake death in the world can deceive someone as powerful as him?
have.
Mahayana can deceive the gods.
Is Youchuiyun Mahayana?
The two of them came to the same conclusion - no, it's impossible. But when I accidentally thought about it, Mahayana can deceive the gods. For some reason, Zheng Xilai felt a chill coming straight to his head. But speaking of it, he firmly believed that no, no, it was absolutely. You Chuiyun could never be Mahayana realm.
Later, Zheng Xilai came to the conclusion that what he was afraid of was not You Chuiyun, but the real helmsman of the behemoth Nantianmen and the "black hand" behind the Huanghuangtang incident, Zhang Yangguan, Zhang Zhenren, who was always smiling.
The Zheng family is known as one of the five great families in the south, so what? He was not just like a dog wagging its tail begging for food in front of Zhang Yangguan.
In the Golden Hall of Nantianmen, so many people were trying to get their own people in. The Zheng family has been in business for hundreds of years and finally took the majority... I didn’t expect it to be given away for nothing like this——
As the head of the clan, Zheng Xilai deeply believed that the main reason for this fiasco must be that the Zheng family stretched their hands too far, which shook others and aroused the fear of the helmsman, so he was beaten

.
Fortunately, Master Zhang was "kindhearted" and didn't do anything right, which completely paralyzed the power of the Zheng Family's Golden Hall.
This fiasco also brought bitterness to Zheng Xilai and even the Zheng family, which had been going smoothly for hundreds of years. It was a good thing to say that it was enough to give the arrogant people a head-on blow and make them realize the shortcomings of their aggressive advances.
But that doesn't mean Zheng Xilai will let You Chuiyun go.
Therefore, even if Zou Shicheng bangs the table, Zheng Xilai will not know how to do it, and it is impossible to consider returning You Chuiyun to him.
Why did Zheng Qing take the blame back? The blame was already placed on him. In full view of everyone, even if he threw the blame, everyone would think it was you who threw it away with a guilty conscience.
So Zheng Xilai had no choice but to do nothing. Moreover, he heard that... You Chuiyun had entered Fenglei Pavilion and passed the first level... Huh, there are fun things waiting for him later. After training in Fenglei Pavilion, , anyone takes him away by force.
die.
No, no room left.
It can be said that Zheng Xilai does not care about Zou Shicheng at all, but cares about that person, the person who was secretly frightened after his investigation... Although he was frightened by more than one person, at least the person who surfaced on the surface made him Great concern.
The man's name was Yun Qingxia, who claimed to be You Chuiyun's uncle - Zheng Xilai's investigation revealed that this Yun Qingxia and You Chuiyun's mother were not biological siblings, but they had a close relationship and were even more so.
The last time I was a monk, I was disturbed by Yun Qingxia, which indirectly caused Zheng Xilai not to directly attack You Chuiyun, or to make some arrangements for discerning people.
A first-rank heavenly official in the imperial court, a big boss in the ministry... This status is unbelievable... If the Zheng family was located at the feet of the emperor, this guy might have dealt with it long ago.
The reason why things are still peaceful on the surface, Zheng Xilai believes that this guy must be hatching some conspiracy, and a conspiracy against the Zheng family is definitely in the making.
He even thought that this time, it was most likely Yun Qingxia's plan... But he never could figure it out - why did You Chuiyun get sent to his door?
If he had gone through all the trouble to eat a lamb, he, Zheng Xilai, would not have any doubts, but he was so hesitant about the little kid that was brought to his door that he could not sleep or eat.
What on earth did this kid You Chuiyun do? Why does Zou Shicheng have a close relationship with him? Even if he didn't hesitate to offend himself, he would plant two thousand horses at the door of Zheng's house.
Check it, check it immediately. The Zheng family's intelligence network was operating like crazy.
But why there is no clue yet... Zheng Xilai is very doubtful about this.
The fact that such a huge intelligence network of the Zheng family cannot be found out only means that someone is suppressing the news, at least not letting all the news come out immediately. It takes time to inquire.
Zheng Xilai looked at Zou Shicheng, and Zou Shicheng also looked at Zheng Xilai, one was calm and the other was angry.
"Of course I know it well... I clearly remember every one of the infliction your Zheng family did to my Zou family."
Zou Shicheng pressed his hand on the steel knife, as if a tiger was about to come out of the cage at any time.
A little general, he is only in the extraordinary realm and has not yet become a saint. So arrogant - Zheng Xilai has seen many people like this in his life, so naturally he will not be afraid of this local snake in Nanling.
"The Zheng family is fair in everything they do - always treat the situation right but not the person..." The Pu'er tea in Zheng Xilai's hand suddenly boiled and turned into bubbles, swaying in the air...
The tea leaves and water were completely separated, the bubbles staggered into Zheng Xilai's mouth, and the tea leaves turned into a ball of fire and burned into flying smoke.
"The head of the Zou family thinks that the Zou family has been bullied by our Zheng family... In the eyes of the Zheng family, it is obviously the Zou family.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The family members bullied the Zheng family first - Head of the Zou family, you always have to look at what is right and wrong when doing things. When you came up to question me, you didn't even think about what the problem was in your own family. "
Zheng Xilai seemed to have said something, but seemed to have said nothing.
"What's the problem?"
Zou Shicheng said in a deep voice.
"I have said it before, Head of the Zou family... you should think about it, because this is your own problem - but since the Zou family has done nothing but hard work for our Zheng family in recent decades, I will make an exception and mention it to you. It’s your youngest daughter, Zou Chan, who was the accomplice of the culprit who murdered my elders and children, the Zheng family.”
"Impossible! Chan'er is weak on her own. There is no match for your Zheng family in Nantianmen."
"Irrespective of the possibility, our Zheng family has already confirmed this matter."
"Absurd, ridiculous, do you Zheng family mean what you say?" Zou Shicheng laughed angrily, "My surname is Zou, I used to respect you very much... You can just give us any excuse and kick us away like dogs. ?”
Zou Shicheng finally asked what he wanted to say most, pointing at Zheng Xilai's nose.
I saw Zheng Xilai twisting the fly ash made from burning tea leaves into his fingers, and grinding the black ash with his thumb and index finger.
"Is not it?"
"What?"
Zheng Xilai smiled and said, "Answer your question."
"Um?"
Zheng Xilai said: "You ask me - does our Zheng family mean what we say... I answered you, my answer is - doesn't it?"
Zou Shicheng's hand tightened suddenly, holding the steel knife, and said loudly: "You are going too far!"
Just with this action, all the elders in the Zheng family meeting hall stood up at the same time. Everyone, including the second elder, a disabled person, glared angrily.
Zheng Xilai was not afraid at all when facing Zou Shicheng's anger.
"Ah, General Zou, I forgot to tell you."
Zheng Xilai drew a few lines in mid-air with his black fingers, and when he looked carefully, they turned out to be the Chinese character "sitting".
sit.
The black and gray lines were arranged like a line, and the word came out in an uproar. Zou Shicheng was unable to dodge, and was pinned to the seat by the word.
"I forgot to tell you, no one dares to draw a knife in the Zheng family meeting hall... no one."
Zou Shicheng looked pale, as if all his strength had been drained from his body, and he slumped down on the chair.
"You are really brave."
Zheng Xilai obviously stood up from the main seat, but in the blink of an eye he leaned over and stood in front of Zou Shicheng.
Getting very close, Zou Shicheng could see all the details in those eyes as vast as nebulae... as dizzying as a whirlpool.
"Since General Zou is here as a guest, you can't come empty-handed..."
"Hmph, there is no reason for a host to ask a guest for a gift."
"Hand over Zou Chan, and I will let you go. Today's incident will be forgotten."
Zou Shicheng forced a sneer, carrying the sea-like pressure of Qi on Zheng Xilai: "Chan'er is my brother's daughter, my niece. It's impossible for me, it's impossible for the Zou family to hand her into the hands of you people. .”
Zheng Xilai smiled and said: "Our Zheng family will take care of her for the rest of her life and take good care of her."
"Pooh!"
Zheng Xilai stretched out a hand and put it on Zou Shicheng's shoulder. The latter suddenly shook like chaff, as if the hand had strangled his neck, making him unable to breathe.
"Have you really thought about it clearly?" Zheng Xilai asked, "You only have one chance, otherwise the Zou family will really have to choose a new head."
