In the Wu family, in the head of the family's room. Wu Jiangyun is sitting at the head of the table. Next to him is an old man with white hair and beard. There are about ten people sitting in the two rows below. They are all elders of the Wu family. Can you sit in the Wu family?
The elders are at least masters in the innate realm.
Some of these people are from direct lineage and some are from collateral lineage. Before innate life, the difference in treatment between direct lineage and collateral lineage may be a bit big, but after becoming elders, they are all treated equally.
At the top, the old man with white beard and hair slowly asked, "Master, do you think An Xiao can succeed?"
Wu Jiangyun still respected the old man. He raised his hands and said respectfully, "Elder, the chance of success is very high. After all, the dark owl has accepted our money and will fight to the death of the third prince of the Ming Dynasty. Besides, even if the assassination fails,
, he may not know that our Wu family is involved."
The old man sighed, shook his head slightly and said, "I don't think the matter is that simple. We have sent people to assassinate him before, but the results were unsuccessful due to unintentional calculations. Now, the head of the family should make plans in advance. Once the assassination fails,
After that, the Third Prince will definitely make a crazy counterattack."
As one of the top aristocratic families in the Ming Dynasty, the Wu family has a deep foundation, and the children of the family are more arrogant than the last. Some people below couldn't help but say, "What are you afraid of? Our Wu family is the first aristocratic family in the Ming Dynasty, and we have disciples and former officials all over the world. His third prince
Even if you ascend the throne, if you want to move the Wu family, you still have to think carefully."
"Be careful!" The old man interrupted him with a wave of his hand, and then said uneasily, "When we assassinated the third prince in the past, our Wu family not only lost two elders, but also a large number of backbone children. Although our Wu family seems to be strong now.
, but the backbone children have some shortcomings. If the third prince takes the opportunity to suppress him, in a few decades, after us old guys pass away, who will be the leader of the Wu family!"
"This..." After saying this, everyone lost their temper. The Wu family had lost a large number of backbone disciples and would face the problem of having no successors at any time. It was true that they could no longer afford any losses.
There was an elder of the Wu family who was not too old at the bottom. He stood up and asked, "Head of the family, eldest elder, what should our Wu family do?"
"Yes, if the dark lord fails, the third prince will definitely step up his guard, and it will be difficult to assassinate him. Moreover, the dark lord has regulations and will not assassinate the leader of a country. Liu Yu is not the emperor of a country yet.
He can barely seduce An Xiao. But if Liu Yu ascends the throne as emperor in the future, An Xiao will definitely not assassinate him again."
"Yes, Patriarch, how should we make a decision when the time comes for the elders!"
"Quiet!" The chaotic scene made Wu Jiangyun feel depressed. He pressed his hand down hard and shouted, "Quiet!"
The hall became quiet, and Wu Jiangyun finally calmed down his nervous mood, and said slowly, "The Third Prince's side and our Wu family are already at loggerheads. Even though we are no longer resisting or even seeking refuge, the Third Prince has a grudge in his heart. In this life
Everything is fine now. If the third prince ascends the throne in the future, who can guarantee that he will not settle accounts with his wife."
As he said that, Wu Jiangyun stood up, "But if you support the fourth prince, if the third prince is squeezed out and the fourth prince succeeds to the throne in the future, our Wu family will be able to achieve unprecedented development. If we push it ten thousand steps, even if the third prince wins in the end
, we still have to rely on our Wu family to stabilize the political situation, so we dare not really suppress our Wu family completely. After all, repairing with the third prince is a thankless effort, it is better to fully support the fourth prince."
"What the head of the family said makes sense. So what if the fourth prince succeeds to the throne in the end? Does he dare to really mess with our Wu family?"
At this time, the first elder, who had been silent for a while, also said in time, "The head of the family is right. Only by fully supporting the fourth prince can our Wu family gain the greatest benefits!"
When the great elder opened his mouth, he was much more useful than the head of the family, Wu Jiangyun. This sentence was equivalent to setting the tone. The future operation of the Wu family would be considered settled.
Seeing that no one was talking, Wu Jiangyun stood up and said, "Okay, since everyone agrees, then...'
"It's not good, head of the family, it's not good!" Just as Wu Jiangyun was speaking, the head butler of the Wu family opened the door fiercely and yelled for first aid as soon as he came in.
This made Wu Jiangyun angry. The butler was one of his people, and he actually yelled in the Wu family's meeting hall. Not only was he losing face, he was sure to incur unanimous criticism from the elders.
Wu Jiangyun suddenly walked up to the housekeeper and kicked him to the ground. "How dare you, this is my Wu family's meeting room, and a slave like you rushed in and yelled. I think you are too tired to live."
Tired of it”
The housekeeper did not shout for mercy, but said in a panic, "Master, it's not good. A large number of imperial guards have surrounded the Wu family tightly, saying that our Wu family is conspiring to rebel, and they want to put everyone in the Wu family in prison."
!”
"What?" If his housekeeper hadn't said this, Wu Jiangyun would have regarded it as a big joke. How could the imperial guards have surrounded the Wu family? Could it be that the third prince wanted to attack the Wu family? How could this be possible?
Don't worry about not being able to control the situation.
"Let's go!" After hearing the news, these elders no longer glared at the housekeeper. The group of people hurriedly followed the housekeeper out. From a distance, they saw the Earth Guards gradually rushing inside, and the children of the Wu family were fighting desperately
Resistance, unfortunately, cannot stop others at all.
Seeing his children being strangled one after another, Wu Jiangyun summoned his inner strength and shouted, "Stop!"
After all, the Wu family was one of the three great families of the Ming Dynasty. Even though they were the emperor's personal soldiers, the Imperial Guards also had concerns. When Wu Jiangyun shouted out, both sides really gave up. Seeing their own heads and elders, Wu
The disciples of the family finally found an organization. They held weapons and carefully confronted the imperial guards and slowly retreated.
Wu Jiangyun walked forward quickly and said loudly, "My Wu family is considered a big family in the Ming Dynasty. Why did the imperial guards kill my Wu family!"
As the head of the Wu family, Wu Jiangyun is also one of the three princes. Needless to say, he has a strong aura and is also a high-ranking person in the eyes of the imperial guards. As soon as Wu Jiangyun came out, he immediately calmed down the situation. Among the imperial guards, there were also
No one dared to come out and look at him.
"Master Wu, you are so domineering~!" Zhou An slowly walked out from behind the imperial guards with two hundred soldiers trapped in the camp. Zhou An was not afraid at all of the existence he looked up to before.
Seeing clearly that the person who came was just a young man under thirty years old. He had never seen this person before. Wu Jiangyun asked doubtfully, "I have a dull eye. I wonder who you are?"
Zhou An slightly arched his hands and said loudly, "The prince's personal guard, Zhou An, the leader of the trapped camp"
"Prince's personal bodyguard?" Zhou An was measured up and down, and he didn't feel any threat at all. Wu Jiangyun was relieved and asked calmly, "It turns out to be Commander Zhou. I didn't know that Commander Zhou would lead the army here."
"The prince is here today. After careful examination, it was found that the Wu family was involved in this matter." After saying this, Zhou An's voice turned cold and he said loudly, "According to the prince's order, the Wu family colluded with assassins and conspired to rebel. All members of the Wu family were specially arrested."
In the Tianlao, if there is any resistance, we will kill you without mercy!"
"Insolent!~" The elder of the Wu family shouted loudly. The Wu family is a big family after all. Judging from Zhou An's tone, locking him up is almost like locking up a cat or a dog. The Wu family is so arrogant. They are not angry when Zhou An says this.
That's weird.
The attitude of the Wu family completely angered Zhou An. Not to be outdone, Zhou An shouted loudly, "You are so outrageous. If you dare to assassinate His Highness, you will be punished!"
Wu Jiangyun came out to talk to Xini again, unleashed his momentum towards Zhou An, and even used threatening words, "Commander Zhou, this matter must be a misunderstanding. I also ask Commander Zhou to go back and tell His Highness that our Wu family is the Ming Dynasty."
How could a noble family do something wrong?"
Zhou Anke didn't take this trick and said directly, "Don't use the Wu family to pressure me. I only give you two ways. Either put on the shackles and follow me to the prison. Or, die!"
"Commander Zhou, don't make a toast or eat as a penalty. This is the Wu family!"
"That's a lot of nonsense." Zhou An helplessly dug his ears, and shouted, "Jiang Guards, take action!"
"Let's see who dares!" Wu Jiangyun roared, and the elders of the Wu family also released their momentum. At this moment, feared by the Wu family's usual power, and the Wu family's momentum at this time, the imperial guards actually really
Don't dare to step forward and take action.
Looking helplessly at the Imperial Guards behind him, Zhou An sneered lightly, "The Imperial Guards, the emperor's own army? What a bunch of trash!"
Zhou An turned around, stared at Wu Jiangchao, and shouted loudly, "Fall into the camp, let the imperial guards and the Wu family cubs behind see the strength of the prince's personal army!"
