Xiao family mansion

Fenglin Pavilion was originally the place where the Empress Dowager Xiao met with the Xiao family when she returned to her natal family for a family visit. Since the death of Empress Dowager Xiao, this place has become a place for the core members of the Xiao family to discuss matters.

Since Yerunan's guards escorted the killers sent by the Xiao family into the city and read out their charges, the core members of the Xiao family have gathered from all sides of Linhuang Mansion to the Fenglin Pavilion of the mansion. They did not think that the matter would be exposed.

It happened so quickly that it caught them completely off guard.

From the moment they entered Fenglin Pavilion, these people denounced the Yelu family's venomous behavior. They scolded them for nearly half an hour before they remembered to deal with their own mess. As a result, they scolded people quite happily, and by the time they discussed it seriously,

Something happened, but they remained silent. Everyone lowered their heads, as if they didn't exist at all. Even if they came up with a few ideas, they couldn't satisfy everyone.

They knew very well that although the guards did not name the person behind the killer, the length of stay at several important residences of the Xiao family and the deliberately raised voices were enough to prove that the Yelu family had mastered the situation.

With conclusive evidence, it can be concluded that the main envoys are the Xiao family. However, due to the fact that Linhuang Mansion currently has many foreign envoys gathered, the so-called family scandal should not be publicized. In the final analysis, it is still an internal dispute in the Liao Kingdom, and outsiders cannot laugh at it.

That's why I didn't expose it mercilessly and just saved a little face.

As the Xiao family's highest hope, Xiao Fengqi was naturally one of the important figures summoned by the family head. However, after entering Fenglin Pavilion, he found an inconspicuous corner and sat down, without saying a word from beginning to end.

It was as if he did not exist. Although he did not participate in any discussion, he saw all the performances of his great-grandfather, grandfather, father, uncles and cousins.

"Xiao Qi!" Xiao Fengjia, Xiao Fengqi's fourth brother, sat next to him, reaching out to poke his younger brother who always had a sneer on his lips, "Don't put on such an expression, we are all a family after all. By the way, they made this decision.

Didn't I discuss this with you before?"

"Did you tell Fourth Brother?" Xiao Fengqi asked back. Seeing Xiao Fengjia shaking his head, he snorted coldly, "They deliberately wanted to hide it from us, and they also wanted us to help clean up the mess. Where can anything in this world be so cheap? Let

Let them toss, I want to see what flowers they can come up with."

"You are just watching the fun and don't think it's a big deal. If they want to die, can you just let them do it?" Xiao Fengjia didn't like these people very much, but they were all close relatives, so he couldn't really ignore it. He took a look at his own

Brother, "What are you angry about? There is no need!"

"Fourth brother, I'm not angry, I just feel it's not worth it. We helped once, and there will be a second time. How many messes have we helped clean up over the years? We didn't cause the trouble, but we took the blame.

, just because they are close relatives? We treat them as close relatives, what do they think of us?" Xiao Fengqi's sneer became more and more obvious, "If it weren't for their hands being stretched too long, how could you and I end up where we are today?"

"That's true." Xiao Fengjia sighed, "The two hospitals are guarding us as much as they are guarding against thieves. The people at home thought we were so easy to get around!"

"It doesn't matter whether you want to be a gangster or not. Fourth brother, watch your people. It doesn't matter how many people we fall in. It doesn't matter even if I fall in, but your people are definitely not good." Xiao Fengqi raised his chin, "You

The people under you are the foundation of our family, and they are the most feared by the Yelu family. If something goes wrong with the people under you, it will be completely over."

"Understood." Xiao Fengjia nodded, "I'm not that careless. Do you know why my grandfather and uncle ignored me for half a month?"

"Did they ask you for someone?" Seeing Xiao Fengjia gently nodding, Xiao Fengqi's face instantly turned ugly, "A bunch of idiots!" He snorted coldly, "I thought Ye Luling was the stupidest person I have ever seen in my life.

Unexpectedly, the most stupid people are in our family."

"When they borrowed people from me, they didn't say what they were going to do, but I felt that the people under me were the lifeblood of our family, and we couldn't just hand them over easily. If they went and never came back, I had no place to cry. So.

, they refused without even thinking. They were so angry. They saw me in the past half month, as if they didn’t see me as a person." Xiao Fengjia pushed her hand stove into Xiao Fengqi's hand, "Fortunately, I didn't agree.

Who are they, General Zhenguo, and who is their military advisor? To assassinate them... aren't they seeking death themselves?"

"If they could have thought of this, they wouldn't have been able to do such a stupid thing." Xiao Fengqi rolled his eyes, "My great-grandfather and grandfather followed them to fool around. I didn't expect them. I thought they would stop them!"

"Stop? On the surface it was to assassinate the mission, but in fact it was not to attack the Yelu family? My great-grandfather was good at everything, but he always thought about the glory of the Queen Mother when she was there, and was always thinking about what happened when the Queen Mother was there."

Xiao Fengjia couldn't help but rolled her eyes, "To put it bluntly, how long has it been since the Queen Mother passed away? Her eyes don't look forward, but always look behind... If our family is left in their hands, how can it be better?

That’s weird!”

"Fourth brother!" Xiao Fengqi patted Xiao Fengjia's arm, "These words are not nonsense. If they find out, they will think of ways to torment you again!"

"If they have the ability, just come here." Xiao Fengjia didn't care at all, "But you have to be careful. They don't know how they know about your relationship with Yeluling, and they want to pour this dirty water on you!"

"Don't worry, fourth brother, we won't let them succeed."

After saying that, Xiao Fengqi stood up and was about to walk towards the door, but was pulled by Xiao Fengjia.

"What are you going to do?"

"It's so suffocating in the house. I'm going to go out and take a breath."

Originally, the position where Xiao Fengqi was sitting did not attract much attention. People in the room were distracted and worried, and no one thought of him. As soon as he stood up, everyone's eyes were focused on him.

"Xiao Qi, why did you come here? Everyone has been discussing it for a long time!"

"Grandpa, my grandson has been here a long time ago, but you just didn't see him." Xiao Fengqi turned around and saluted his grandfather.

The current head of the Xiao family is Xiao Fengqi's grandfather, Xiao Shengning. He was also a general who led troops and fought in battles in the early years. However, he has been away from the battlefield for many years. In addition, in the past two or three years, he has been fighting fiercely with the Yelu family.

He knew very little about the situation. Therefore, he suffered such a big setback this time and lost all his dignity and face, which made him feel particularly uncomfortable. He originally thought that the grandson he valued would respond positively and help him.

It was a good idea to get through this difficult situation. Unexpectedly, not only did he not say a word, he was also ready to ignore it. So, he deliberately asked why he was late.

"The elders are discussing important matters here. If you, a junior, don't listen carefully, what are you going to do?" Xiao Shengning's displeasure was clearly shown. He glared at his grandson, "After listening for so long, what are you going to do?

Don’t have anything to say?”

"Me?" Xiao Fengqi's attitude was very cold, "No."

"When such a big thing happens, you have nothing to say? How should our family get through this difficulty?"

"Grandfather, what does it have to do with our family that they caught the assassin?" Xiao Fengqi's face showed no expression, and he also pulled Xiao Fengjia over. "Is it possible that these killers were sent by grandfather?"

"Damn it!" Xiao Pingyuan, Xiao Fengqi's uncle slammed the table, "Why are you talking to your grandfather?"

Xiao Fengqi didn't even look at Xiao Pingyuan, but took Xiao Fengjia's arm and walked out.

"Stop!" Xiao Shengning saw that he looked like he didn't care about anyone, and his anger rushed to the top of his head, and he slapped the table hard, "Evil! If it weren't for you, why would our family be where we are today!"

"Grandpa is right, it's because of him!" Xiao Fengshi, the second cousin who has always been at odds with Xiao Fengqi, jumped out first, pointed at Xiao Fengqi and said, "If it weren't for the fact that he made friends with that Yeluling, he would send someone to assassinate the Qi family member

Boy, we wouldn't think of assassinating the Xia Mission. The source of all this lies with him. If the Yelu family won't let you go, we will hand you over. Don't think that grandfather and uncles value you. You

You think you are so important, there are so many promising children in the Xiao family, one more you is not too much, one less you is not a lot!"

"Promising children? Second cousin, are you talking about yourself?" Xiao Fengqi and Xiao Fengjia stopped and looked at the people in this room. Their eyes swept over their great-grandfather, grandfather, uncles, and brothers one by one, and the sarcasm on their faces grew more and more.

The deeper he got, the more he didn't want to hide it at all. Xiao Fengjia stopped Xiao Fengqi, narrowed his red and phoenix eyes, and said with a half-smile, "My second cousin thinks highly of me. I wonder where my second cousin is?" He turned his head.

Tell Xiao Fengqi, "Without the majesty of Fenglin Pavilion, any cat or dog can come in!"

"That's what the fourth brother said." Xiao Fengqi didn't wait for Xiao Fengshi to argue, and followed Xiao Fengjia's words, "Just now, the second cousin said that it was because I sent people to assassinate A Feng, so you got inspiration from here and thought of assassinating him.

From the mission. I have a question to ask my second cousin. Do you have any evidence to prove that I was the one who assassinated Afeng?"

"me……"

Xiao Fengshi was speechless when asked. He heard what his father and his elder brother said, so he concluded that Qi Zhifeng's assassination was closely related to Xiao Fengqi. He looked at Xiao Pingyuan, hoping that his father could give him an explanation.

In short, as a result, his father looked away and didn't look at him at all.

"Long time no see. Second cousin has impressed us. Even the king and the two chambers have confirmed that the leader is Major General Yelu. However, second cousin wants to frame this crime on me. Could it be that my cousin wants to

By overturning this judgment, are you preparing to overturn the verdict of Major General Yelu? It turns out that the second cousin and the Major General's affection has reached this point, which is really...enviable!"

"You are so slanderous!" Xiao Fengshi was speechless and his face turned red. "Don't listen to this kid's nonsense. There is no such thing. I...I..."

"Xiao Qi, don't argue with your second cousin. He always speaks unscrupulously, so don't take it to heart." Xiao Zhi, the eldest elder of the Xiao family and Xiao Fengqi's great-grandfather, glared at Xiao Fengshi and turned his head.

He put on a very kind look and said, "If you want to blame me, blame me. I didn't let them tell you and Xiaosi, so I did it on my own initiative. This is also because I didn't think about it well and didn't think about this mission.

He is so powerful, so the Yelu family has a handle on it. Xiao Qi, you are always smart, what should you do about this?"

"I didn't expect the people in the mission to be so powerful?" Xiao Fengqi's eyes swept over the faces of the people in the room, and several of them lowered their heads unconsciously, "Grandpa, you and your grandfather don't know the origin of this mission, so why not?"

It's understandable, but my uncle, third uncle, ninth uncle, eldest cousin, third cousin, and eighth cousin should know the origins of this general who governs the country. When you led the army, you didn't miss her.

We have dealt with each other and suffered many losses at her hands. Don’t you know what kind of person she is? Or do you think that not enough people in our family have died at her hands?

Is it appropriate to throw it in?”

"Wait a minute!" Xiao Pingyuan stood up and asked with a horrified look on his face, "Is this General Zhenguo you are talking about...is...she?"

"Uncle, why can't you lead the army anymore?" Xiao Fengqi's eyes stayed on Xiao Pingyuan's right arm, "Who was seriously injured on your right hand? Don't you even remember it, uncle?"

"How...how...how could it be her?" Xiao Pingyuan began to tremble unconsciously. He looked at Xiao Fengshi, who was the first to come up with this idea, "You...you didn't say...I...I want to know

She will never agree!"

"Dad, who is it?" Xiao Fengshi looked at his father and then his elder brother with a confused look on his face, "Why do you all have such expressions? He is just a little-known general, how could you..."

"Little general?" Xiao Pingyuan raised his hand and slapped Xiao Fengshi hard. Then he felt annoyed and followed up and kicked him twice, "The general of the Shen family's army became a little general in your mouth? You

You are really promising! You are a bastard who has failed in success and failed in disaster. You want to kill your father and your brother!" Taking a deep breath, he looked at Xiao Fengqi who looked at Xiao Fengqi who had nothing to do with him and said indifferently, "She is

Special envoy of Great Xia?”

"Yes!" Xiao Fengqi nodded, "When they entered the city this morning, I took a look. The special envoy was General Shen Cha, and her deputy was Military Advisor Jin Jing." When he saw the people named, his expressions changed.

He turned pale and sneered, "Okay, you don't have to look like this. Although they know that the killer came from the Xiao family, they won't punish him now. You guys should be honest from now on and don't mess around.

Just don't give the handle to others yourself." After saying that, without looking back, he took Xiao Fengjia and left Fenglin Pavilion.

The two brothers walked in the yard for a while and sighed at the same time.

"With such a group of idiots around..."
