Chapter 19 There Is A Stone Hidden In The Persimmon, Please Take Action, Mr. Chen
The Wang family did not expect that the Lord of the City would actually come to the Shangguan Mansion.
According to the normal speed of information dissemination, he couldn't have arrived at the Shangguan Mansion so quickly, and he shouldn't have come to the Shangguan Mansion at all.
The Shangguan family is just a small family, a family supported by the Wang family, and it is impossible for them to receive the attention of the Lord of the City.
This is a private matter between families of different ranks.
But he not only came, but also clearly showed an attitude of helping the Shangguan family.
Xie Kui walked up to Wang Qingjun with a smile and patted his shoulder, saying, "The bounty in the black market was not bought by Shangguan Yu. It was just a quarrel between husband and wife. There's no need to make a big fuss about it."
"You say it's not, so it's not?"
Wang Qingjun pushed away his hand and his eyes turned fierce, saying, "Besides, we are dealing with family matters. What right does a city lord like you have to interfere? Could it be that the Shangguan family dares to act like this because the city lord instigated them?"
Even in the face of the Lord of the Jiang City, Wang Qingjun still showed a fierce and formidable momentum, turning the tables and suppressing the other party's arrogance.
If it were someone else, they would definitely show a surprised expression, but Xie Kui had a deep understanding of human nature and only smiled slightly, saying, "I just don't want General Wang to make a big mistake due to a misunderstanding. You are the general in charge of defending the city of Jiang, but you can't harm the civilians in the city for no reason."
"Xie Lord is really putting on a high hat. So you're here to protect the Shangguan family!"
Wang Qingjun's face showed a sudden realization, then turned fierce, saying, "The woman Shangguan Yu found was either arranged by you or related to you, right?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Kui smiled and said, "The relationship is not that important. What matters is that I don't want General Wang to make a big mistake. Otherwise, your position as a general will be unstable in the hearts of the people!"
The tone of the second half of the sentence became heavier, and the threat was obvious.
If you don't withdraw your troops and leave, you will be at odds with the Lord of the City's Mansion. Your position as a general will be revoked!
"Hahaha!" Wang Qingjun laughed loudly. "Xie old dog, don't say I didn't give you a chance. If you don't leave, I'll chop you down along with the Shangguan family!"
So what if he's the Lord of the City?
Anyone who dares to offend the Wang family must be prepared to bear the wrath of the Wang family.
Xie Kui narrowed his eyes, and his blood surged like a tidal wave, saying, "Since that's the case, there's nothing more to say. Capture him for me!"
"Attack!"
With his command, the guards of the city immediately shouted and attacked with their long spears.
The people of the Wang family were furious and all attacked at the same time.
In an instant, a fierce conflict erupted in the Shangguan Mansion, with the sound of clashing weapons spreading from inside to outside the mansion.
Both the Lord's Mansion and the Wang family sent reinforcements, clashing and fighting on the Great Dao of the city, causing the people to panic and flee.
For a long time, the city of Jiang has been guarded by several major families.
In order to unify the order, one of the clan leaders was elected as the Lord of the City, and it was required to rotate the clan leader every ten years.
The current Lord of the City is the head of the Xie family, but that doesn't mean he can do whatever he wants.
The Wang family will not indulge them.
Dare to provoke? Then they will directly start a massacre!
Such wars between major families rarely occur, otherwise the city of Jiang would not have developed into such prosperity. The last family conflict in the city of Jiang was two hundred years ago.
When Wang Jiayun learned that the Wang family and the Xie family were at war and that the fighting was intense, he hurriedly went to seek help from Chen Changsheng.
"Master Chen! I don't know if you can lend a hand. I'm worried that my uncle and the others will be in danger!" Wang Jiayun entered Chen Changsheng's room, looking anxious.
After several days of fierce fighting, the two major families were deadlocked.
No one knew when the next round of fighting would come, but neither family had any intention of backing down. The Shangguan family even directly joined the Xie family's camp, fully armed and ready to go.
As for the other major families in Wangjiang City, they are delighted to see this.
The Wang family and the Xie family are too dominant. Only when they both suffer losses will the other families have a chance to surpass them.
Chen Changsheng, inside the house, asked in confusion, "Madam, don't you have a senior cultivator brother? Why don't you call him back to help the Wang family?"
"Our brother's sect is in the Taihang region, thousands of miles away from here. We mortals have no way to contact him. We can only meet him when he returns, but his return is not fixed," Wang Jiayun sighed.
If everyone in the family is dead, all her brother can do is seek revenge.
When it comes to quenching thirst, only Chen Changsheng, who is also a cultivator, can help the Wang family.
"Madam, rest assured, since I have come to Wangjiang City with you, I will not stand by and watch the Wang family be destroyed," Chen Changsheng gently pulled Wang Jiayun to the tea table.
Upon hearing that he was willing to help, Wang Jiayun's worried expression eased slightly.
"But why would the City Lord's Mansion intervene in the affairs of the Shangguan family?" Chen Changsheng had been studying Alchemy Technique in the room and had no idea what had happened outside these days.
He thought that a small Shangguan family should be easily controlled by the Wang family, but he didn't expect there to be hidden stones in this persimmon.
"The Wang family has already investigated this matter," Wang Jiayun's face looked grim as she said, "The woman who was with Shangguan Yu that day is from the Wangjiang Tan family, and she is also the younger sister-in-law of Xie Kui, Tan Yun!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Changsheng was greatly surprised.
This man not only married the daughter of the Wang family, but also got involved with the daughter of the Tan family.
No wonder Shangguan Yu was so tough, daring to issue a black market bounty against Wang Jiayun regardless of the Wang family's background. It turns out that the background of the third party he got involved with is quite strong.
The Shangguan family, the Xie family, and the Tan family!
The three families joining forces do indeed have the ability to resist the Wang family.
Chen Changsheng poured a cup of tea for the worried Wang Jiayun and asked softly, "In that case, why doesn't the Wang family publicly announce that your brother is a cultivator?"
Even if the three families join forces, once they know that the Wang family has a cultivator, they will probably immediately beg for mercy, right?
Wang Jiayun furrowed her brows, "This method can indeed solve the Wang family's predicament, but it will also invite disaster."
Cultivators who go out to experience and explore will definitely offend other cultivators.
If the enemies know their roots, the entire family of cultivators will face the threat of annihilation.
Chen Changsheng nodded slightly, "I overlooked this point."
"As long as the young master is willing to help save the Wang family, I..." Wang Jiayun's fair cheeks blushed like jade, and she stuttered, "I am willing... willing to accompany the young master at any time!"
Chen Changsheng's heart stirred slightly. How could he not hear the implied meaning?
Glancing at the shy and angry-looking Wang Jiayun, he smiled and said, "Madam is looking forward to accompanying me, right? It seems that Madam is the one who benefits more."
"It's... it's the same!" Wang Jiayun's face was flushed, and she said with embarrassment and anger, "Please leave the mansion quickly and suppress those who bully the Wang family!"
"Alright, alright, I'll go now."
Chen Changsheng chuckled, just as he was about to leave, he heard a commotion and fighting sounds coming from inside the mansion.
"Oh no! The Xie family, the Tan family, and the Shangguan family have joined forces and stormed into the mansion!"
A servant shouted in panic.
