Chapter 1054

Patriarch Zhao had no choice but to arrange for someone to take Wang Lanxiang.

That's good, by tracking down the source of the rumor, they can keep the three of them in the meeting hall instead.

After a while, he will arrange it and let those who handle the affairs delay it on purpose.

It is best to delay until the evening, and the result cannot be traced.

In this way, they can justifiably keep them.

But Yue Lingzhi was ready to leave.

She stood up again: "Grandma, let's go back and rest first."

She had already seen it, and Patriarch Zhao's expression told her that he would only procrastinate on this matter, and would not really find out where the source was.

Because the source of the rumors is very likely Patriarch Zhao himself.

Not surprisingly, they will definitely do this:

Wang Lanxiang would admit that she had heard it from a few people, but when she spelled it out and told it to others, there were some discrepancies with the original one.

Then Wang Lanxiang's boss will also explain in this way.

When the source is finally traced, it will become a very normal sentence: Patriarch Yang and Ouyang Shan knew each other when they were young.

Forget it, now that grandma has explained it clearly to them, no one will believe the rumors outside.

Moreover, now is not the time to teach Patriarch Zhao a lesson.

Let’s wait for Gu Zheng and the others to come back.

But Patriarch Zhao stopped them again.

"Finding the source requires you to watch it. Why don't you just stay here. If Madam wants to rest, there is a room here."

Upon hearing this, Yue Lingzhi thought of a certain possibility.

Does Patriarch Zhao want to keep the three of them here as hostages?
She glanced coldly at the other Patriarchs, and found that they had different expressions, and some of them obviously supported Patriarch Zhao.

Yue Lingzhi was almost laughed out of anger.

"Do you doubt that the King of Nanyue and Patriarch Yang will definitely fail?"

"Are you worried that if the King of Nanyue and Patriarch Yang fail, you will be surrounded and suppressed by the Chu family?"

"So, you want to keep the three of us here as hostages?"

"At that time, can we trade the three of us with the Chu family?"

Their purpose was thwarted by Yue Lingzhi, and Patriarch Zhao was a little bit stuck.

He wanted to admit it or not, but he was also worried that Yue Lingzhi and the others would leave the Peach Blossom Forest, and it would be difficult to catch them.

They were full of confidence before, thinking that no one could break the formation in the peach blossom forest, but Nanyue Wang walked out of the peach blossom forest easily and slapped them in the face instantly.

Although they didn't know whether it was the King of Nanyue or the Queen of Nanyue who broke the formation of the Peach Blossom Forest, they also had to be careful, the Queen of Nanyue could walk out of the Peach Blossom Forest without hindrance.

The best way is to keep them in the chamber.

If you admit it, you will anger the Nanyue princess on the spot.

The princess of Nanyue might attack him.

Patriarch Zhao didn't want to take care of this offending matter by himself, so he directly named all the patriarchs.

It was not his idea to leave the three of them as hostages.

"Princess Nanyue, forgive me, but to keep you here is actually the intention of all the Patriarchs."

"But it's not like you said, leaving you as hostages, but that you will be safer here."

"Another point is that if you are here, the King of Nanyue will not care about our life or death."

When Patriarch Zhao said this, he subconsciously backed away a few steps, keeping a safe distance from Yue Lingzhi.

At the same time, he signaled the other Patriarchs to make a statement with his eyes.
