Chapter 52
"The head of the family is right, but who will take the lead?" Someone asked, after all, this is not a small matter, and there are huge risks and ties involved.

"From the point of view of the younger generation, the two cousins ​​in the upper capital should take the lead in contacting. If I remember correctly, the two elder brothers are now officials in the court."

"One of them is Guozijian Jijiu, and the other is Minister of the Household Department. They are both extremely prominent and noble people. If they use their names to negotiate with various families, it will be much easier to think about."

Someone asked aloud, people like myself are all working hard in the local area, either as local officials, or as lowly merchants, only his direct lineage, and the whole family will do their best to pave the way for them to enter the court as officials , Only in this way can they be promoted step by step, they can't let them take advantage of all the advantages, and wait for others to do the things that are not on the table.

"I don't know, what does uncle want?"

The man continued to ask,

There was inevitably a bit of resentment in his tone.

"You mean Bo'er and Xue'er?"

Xie Hengan frowned when he heard the sound, and couldn't help but feel a little cold when he said it. You must know that when Xie Wenyuan colluded with the big officials in the frontier.

Then someone proposed to let the second son Xie Wenxue, who was working in the household department, join in, but he didn't agree, and deliberately kept them away, so they don't want to join in. Unexpectedly, someone has made their idea now.

"To shut up!"

"Do you have your share of words here?"

Before Xie Heng'an could speak, the extremely senior clan elder with gray temples began to reprimand the man loudly with a cane.

"The junior is also for..."

"Boom..."

The man hadn't finished speaking,
With a cane he fell,
"Your Majesty!"

"You are talking half a sentence, old man, I must tear your mouth!" The white-haired old man said with stern eyes. Still bit the bullet and knelt down on the ground, not daring to question it.

"Why can my Xie family still stand firm in the court and place after several dynasties of honor and disgrace, and the foundation has not been broken no matter what the crisis?"

"That is to follow the rules set by the ancestors all the time. No matter what kind of crisis it is, you can only place your bets separately. Now, how can you put all the chips on it?"

"You have to know that you can't put eggs in the same basket. Bo'er in the Imperial College and Xueer in the Ministry of Household Affairs are the eggs that my Xie family put in another basket. They must not be involved in this matter. Come in."

"Wait, don't feel disadvantaged,"

"What is a clan?"

"It's all about glory and glory, and one loss is all loss!"

"Put away your small thoughts now, everything must be based on the interests of the family. If someone does not listen to persuasion, the old man, I will hold a clan meeting and remove you from the family tree!"

Although the old man said that he seldom participates in family affairs, but his seniority is so high, and now he speaks with more reason and evidence, but no one dares to refute.

"Heng'an, you just have to let go and make arrangements. As long as it is for the overall situation of my Xie family, the old man will support you. I want to see if that person has the guts to refuse?"

"So, thank you uncle!"

Xie Heng'an was relieved when he heard this, and with the support of this old fellow, he started to do things much more calmly, so he even talked with everyone about the charter for leading the alliance.

"So, let's follow this charter."

"Do you have any objections?"

It was not until the third watch that all the articles of association were discussed.

Xie Hengan looked at the crowd below and asked.

"The head of the family decides!"

"Just when does it start?"

"Well, it's getting late today, so let's do it tomorrow."

"Tomorrow at noon, each branch of yours will send a suitable person to contact each family, and implement the things discussed tonight as soon as possible. Don't let that thief run rampant for too long!"

"Let's go rest and get enough energy." After saying that, Xie Hengan went straight to Xie Wenyuan's mourning hall without stopping.

"Go and take your grandson to sleep."

"The old man is guarding here."

Xie Hengan looked away from his grandson, who was kneeling in front of the mourning hall, to his daughter-in-law and said in a deep voice.

"Eunuch, I..."

"That thief is ruthless..."

"I'm an orphan and widow..."

The woman saw that the Patriarch had restrained his previous tough attitude, but instead pretended to be pitiful, and tears fell from the corners of her eyes as she spoke, looking heartbroken.

"Just stay at my Xie's house with peace of mind. That thief is really ruthless. On this three-acre land in Qinghe County, he can't do anything to you. At the boundary of Qinghe County, someone will come to report on the back foot..."

"Your safety is naturally worry-free!"

"As for Yuan'er's matter, you don't need to worry about it. The old man will decide for him. Now that the regulations have been set, the thief will not be rampant for a few days. At that time, the old man will cut off his head personally and use it as a memorial to my family Yuan. Son!"

Looking at the empty coffin, Xie Hengan's face was gloomy and his chest heaved uncontrollably. After all, Xie Wenyuan was also his most proud son, who lived above the temple and held real power.

Not surprisingly, after he stepped down from the position of Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry, he will also be the next head of the Xie family, but now that there is not even a corpse left, how can he be calm.

"That's a lot of work."

"My daughter-in-law is a girl, so I won't ask any more questions."

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, the woman felt relieved a lot, looked at her son who had been kneeling for a long time, his lips were already turning white, and beckoned the servants to bring him a bowl of rice porridge for him to drink.

At this time, the rain intensified and the temperature dropped sharply. The woman hesitated for a moment, but took him down to rest.

"You all go down too,"

"This old man talks to Yuan'er alone..."

Xie Hengan waved his hand,
Withdrew all the servants who were waiting outside the mourning hall,
"Yuan'er..."

Then he walked to the coffin with a lonely expression,
fourth watch,
It was the time when the night was the thickest, and with the rain as a companion, it was the time when ordinary people slept the deepest.

"Is this the Xie family in Qinghe County?"

Wearing a bamboo hat, wearing black clothes, and carrying a wooden box, Qinglong has appeared on the hill not far away, looking at the huge mansion in a daze.

During the lonely years of Jin Yiwei, not to mention the children of the clan, the former officials of the disciples, and the powerful families all over the world, even ordinary officials are not to be provoked, it can be said to be extremely despicable.

Now he was indeed ordered to come here and slaughtered the entire clan. You must know that even when the Dali Dynasty was founded, it only suppressed it with all its strength and cut off the power of the clan, but it never said that it would be easily destroyed.

Today's move can be regarded as the first time.

"Master Qinglong."

"Is this really possible?"

Die on the side asked in a low voice, even though a few people rushed straight into the old lair, Xie's mansion was unexpected and unprepared, but it is not as good as in the capital, there are many dead men and guests living in the mansion on weekdays, it is definitely not easy to get along with.

If there is a slight delay, give Xie's family time to react, gather people and fight to the death, even if they pack up the two or three thousand guards in the prefectures and counties outside Shangjing and throw them here, they may not escape death.

"Where is there any talk of success or failure?"

"mission accomplished,"

"It is the only mission and dignity of my Jin Yiwei."

Qinglong said indifferently.

"Without dignity, what is the difference between death and death?"

"But Lord Qinglong, now I, Jin Yiwei, have..."

Thinking of what the new commander did, the saucer subconsciously straightened his back.

Qinglong didn't answer, but looked in the direction of Shangjing City, clapped Daming Shishishi in his hand and said, "Wait, wait outside, if the mission is completed, if some thieves escape in the chaos, they will be killed on the spot.

"If the task cannot be completed,"

"This official will serve heaven and benevolence!"

After Qinglong said,

And walked away into the rain alone,

At the end, there is still a word left unsaid,
That is,
Dignity is not given by others, it is earned by oneself!
Everyone looked at his back in silence for a long time, it was a kind of indifference that went deep into the bone marrow, colder than the raindrops falling in this late autumn.

Perhaps he had killed too many people, and the murderous aura on his body had already overflowed. Even the torrential rain stopped him while walking. Perhaps killing people was not his choice, but it was a way to complete the task and achieve his goal.

get closer

The huge mansion is like a giant beast hiding in the dark night and choosing to eat people, trying to devour that thin figure in the rainy night, but his steps didn't stop for a moment.

because,

Jinyiwei is a road with no retreat,

at this point,
He understands better than anyone else.
