The Return of the Supreme: The Prosperous Demon Queen
Chapter 125 Diverting Attention
Chapter 125 Diverting Attention
From this sentence, it can be seen how much Su Zhen doesn't want to see the second elder. Three people stood up, the first elder and the fifth elder all mentioned it, but he missed one of the second elders.
The Great Elder is fair and knows to respect the head of the family, so he sat down as soon as Su Zhen spoke, just waiting for the next development of the situation.And the Fifth Elder has a good relationship with Su Zhen, and they are more casual on weekdays. Seeing Su Zhen say this, he still feels upset.He wanted to say something more, but after seeing Su Zhen's eyes, he had no choice but to sit down resentfully.
Seeing this, Su Zhen didn't care about the second elder, but changed his voice and said, "Fourth brother, what do you think about this matter?"
The four elders who were named looked indifferent, as if they had a paralyzed face.But those who know him well know that facial paralysis is just a superficial phenomenon.If the Great Elder is neutral from the bottom of his heart, then the Fourth Elder is nothing but grass, and he will fall wherever the wind blows.
Seeing that the Second Elder was caught in the braid, he did not immediately throw trouble, but said with a straight face: "It is difficult to convict the Second Elder with only one account book. I don't know if the Patriarch has other evidence. ?”
It sounds like this is for the Second Elder, but in fact, as long as Su Zhen presents other evidence, he will immediately use this to trample the Second Elder under his feet, and he will never show mercy.
Apparently the second elder also heard the meaning, and couldn't help but glared at the fourth elder.
Hearing this, Su Zhen didn't answer right away, but instead asked the third elder: "Third brother, what about you?"
The third elder is the one with the deepest thoughts among the five elders, and also the most mysterious.After dealing with the affairs arranged by the family every day, he would not return to the Su family immediately, but his whereabouts were strange and he didn't know where to go or what to do.
The Fourth Elder once sent people to follow the Third Elder, but the Third Elder's ability to dump people is too strong, no matter whether the strength is higher or lower than him, they will be thrown away after a short time.
So no one in the Su family knew the whereabouts of the third elder, of course, except for the third elder who told others.
When Su Zhen called the third elder, he was still looking at the account book very carefully.Suddenly being called, the third elder's expression was bewildered, but there was a trace of clarity in the depths of his eyes.
"Tsk tsk, the 3000 million gold coins are the two-month capital flow of the Treasure Pavilion!" He kept shaking his head as he said, as if regretting the disappearance of the 3000 million gold coins.
Although this sentence did not directly answer Su Zhen's question, everyone could hear the meaning behind it.Obviously, the third elder is also targeting the second elder at this moment. The three words "two months" fully explain what the amount of 3000 million means to the Su family.
Although there are various industries under the name of the Su family, the profits they get are huge.But 3000 million gold coins is not a small amount. It is enough for ordinary people to eat for a lifetime, and the Su family has always focused on not being extravagant or wasting.
Therefore, if it is confirmed that the second elder has corrupted the 3000 million, then he must bear the guilt.
There was a smile on the corner of his mouth, but what Su Zhen said was beyond everyone's expectations: "I know that the Second Elder must have a lot of dissatisfaction at the moment, so I won't say much, the name Wu Dayu is familiar to you Right? I won’t punish you, hand over the 3000 million gold coins and the management rights of the Treasure Pavilion, and that’s the end of the matter. Otherwise..."
As soon as these words came out, the biggest reaction was not the second elder, but the fifth elder who just sat down.Almost as soon as Su Zhen finished speaking, the Fifth Elder stood up again with a "teng" sound: "Patriarch, although 3000 million is not a large amount, it is definitely not a small amount! Besides, the Second Elder knew the law and broke the law. Can you let him go easily?"
"Sit down, I will take care of this matter myself!"
Hearing this, the fifth elder's face was flushed, and he glanced at the second elder with displeasure, and finally obeyed Su Zhen's order.
While Su Zhen obviously released the water, the second elder didn't appreciate it at all.Once the management right of Treasure Pavilion is taken back, his power will be greatly reduced.That's not to mention, once this matter gets out, his reputation as the second elder of the Su family will be considered ugly!
Therefore, the second elder cares more about his reputation than the loss of power: "Oh, just based on the fifth elder's one-sided statement and a name I have never heard of, and there is no conclusive evidence, so you want to convict me ?"
"Are you sure you haven't heard of Wu Dayu?"
"no!"
Hearing the resolute words of the second elder, a meaningful smile appeared on Su Zhen's mouth.For some reason, seeing this smile, the Second Elder felt something bad in his heart.
"Bring Wu Dayu up and let the Second Elder take a good look to see if he really doesn't know this person."
As soon as the words fell, the second elder, who had been stubborn just now, could no longer calm down, his face was full of panic.In contrast, the Fifth Elder's face was full of joy.As for the other three elders, they all made serious expressions waiting for the follow-up development.
The door of the meeting hall slowly opened, and besides the servants of the Su family and a man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks, there was another person who appeared in front of everyone.
Seeing this person, the expressions of the five elders, including Su Zhen, all changed.However, some people are happy and some are worried.
Because of this person's appearance, Wu Dayu was directly ignored by Su Zhen, and the joy in his eyes could not be concealed: "Xi'er, you are back!"
That's right, it was Su Xi who came.
After she got the Tianlong heart, she went back to Su's house directly. She wanted to find Su Zhen but was told that Su Zhen was discussing with several elders.She had no choice but to come here.
When I first arrived, people from outside were not allowed to enter, and Su Xi didn't want to force her way in, so she waited for a while.But this wait lasted more than half an hour. Su Xi really didn't have the habit of waiting for others, and it was not easy to be able to endure for so long.
At this time, Su Zhen just sent Wu Dayu to go in, and Su Xi followed in regardless of the obstruction.Because of her status as the prostitute of the Su family, and because the doorkeeper was very sincere to Su Zhen, she turned a blind eye and let Su Xi in.
Seeing the joy on Su Zhen's face at this time, Su Xi regretted waiting for a long time.
Directly ignoring the elders, Su Xi smiled slightly at Su Zhen: "Father, I'm back."
The extremely simple sentence made Su Zhen burst into tears. The patriarch of the Su family, like a child, couldn't control his emotions at this moment.
"Bold Su Xi, do you know what this place is? This is a place for discussion, and you, a woman, come in in a grand manner. Do you still have the rules you should have!"
The person who spoke was the Second Elder, Su Xi's arrival made him breathe a sigh of relief, taking advantage of the fact that everyone's attention was not on Wu Dayu, he naturally wanted to focus everyone's attention on Su Xi.
But what he didn't expect was that Su Zhen's heart was originally on Su Xi's body, but it was because of his words that Su Zhen's thoughts were pulled back, and he stared at the second elder. I feel very dissatisfied with what I said just now: "You are the bold one, right? Xi'er, come and sit down, let's watch a good show together!"
