And in such a windy environment, the first day passed quickly, and the Zhao family still did not get what they wanted, which was that the central government gave up pursuing the Zhao Tiezhu matter.
At this time, in the lobby of the Zhao family, Mr. Zhao and the leaders of several other branches were looking serious, and the atmosphere in the entire lobby had a strong smell of gunpowder.
"Brother, you are going too far!" Zhao Meiqin said angrily, "Xiaotian is a new political star that our Zhao family has cultivated with great difficulty. He has a good chance of entering the Political Bureau of the Central Committee, but he was sacrificed by you like this.
In exchange for the central government not pursuing Zhao Tiezhu, who is now half-dead, have you considered the interests of our Zhao family in this matter?"
"Hmph, what do you know?" Mr. Zhao said coldly, "If our Zhao family can't even protect the woman we love, then how can our Zhao family have the face to stand on China? What happened to Tiezhu this time
, what we have done well and what we have done is right, we must give those people who play tricks on us all day long a hard slap in the face. Now the reputation of the upper class people in the capital about us is completely different from before!
Do you know what people said about our Zhao family in the past? All we could do was shout about how powerful we were all day long, but if something really happened, we couldn’t do anything. What now? Who dares to say this about our Zhao family? Tiezhu, this is
We have really lost face! How about killing people? Those people are all the Li family. We and the Li family are enemies. Many of our people died in their hands. This time Tiezhu was just one.
It’s just to avenge those who were before us. And if we have to give up Tie Zhu because Tie Zhu made a face for our Zhao family, don’t you think this will hurt the hearts of many Zhao family members?”
"Brother, you are using strong words!!" Zhao Meiqin said angrily, "Zhao Tiezhu was obviously just for a woman, because such a woman killed dozens of people. He was simply a murderer. If it was just these dozens of people,
, that’s nothing, but he actually defeated Qing Emperor and Li Xu. Do you know that behind these two people, there are giants standing? Not to mention Li Xu of the Li family, because he and us
They are enemies to begin with, but what about Qing Emperor? Qing Emperor’s brother is Qing Long, everyone in the world knows this, and Qing Long is the bodyguard of the No. 1 leader. Qing Emperor is deposed, what do you think Qing Long will do? We are offended.
Qinglong, that is equivalent to indirectly offending the No. 1 leader. This is all because of Zhao Tiezhu! If we give up Zhao Tiezhu now and hand it over to the central government, I think this is comparable to sacrificing a rising political star.
There are many better ones, but at worst, if Zhao Tiezhu pays for their lives, then it will be even, and there is nothing to say. And if that is really the case, Zhao Tiezhu can also be regarded as the hero of our Zhao family. With one life
In exchange, the eldest son of the enemy Li family was crippled, and dozens of others died and hundreds of others were injured. This is a real profit!"
"Bastard!" Zhao Lao slammed the chair, stared at Zhao Meiqin, and said, "How can people from my Zhao family give up so easily? If anything happens in the future, we will do it first
It's not resistance but sacrifice of one's own people for compromise. Then our family will be broken up in a few years! Although Xiaotian took the blame and resigned this time, it's not like you don't know the domestic political scene. If you go down today, it will be over.
Time can rise again, and if I hand over Tiezhu, do you think it is possible for Tiezhu to survive? Meiqin, our Zhao family will not put any family member in danger, especially if he treats our Zhao family
There’s still time to contribute!”
"Contribution? Is it just that you are half-dead now with a few women?" Zhao Meiqin asked directly, "Brother, if nothing else, if the central government continues to have this ambiguous attitude, are you going to continue to sacrifice our people?
? Or should we hand over all our power, it is better to hand over the entire Zhao family to the central government, and then save the life of Zhao Tiezhu? You are ignoring the tens of thousands of members of our Zhao family. This is
A very selfish idea, brother!"
"Huh, this matter is settled anyway. If anyone dares to say that Tiezhu should be handed over, I don't mind handing her over first." Mr. Zhao looked at the people around him with a cold face, snorted coldly, and said
, "If, if you people can all unite as one, then who do we need to be afraid of? Think about it carefully!"
After saying that, Mr. Zhao stood up and left the lobby tremblingly.
Zhao Meifeng looked at Zhao Meiqin and said, "Oh, how can you just say something about sacrificing your clan members!"
"Hmph, what do you know?" Zhao Meiqin was not polite at all when facing Zhao Meifeng, "My younger brother has already broken the rules of our Zhao family because of Zhao Tiezhu's matter. How can it be possible to sacrifice this person to protect another person?"
? How much manpower, material, and energy have we spent to bring Xiaotian to his current position? It’s better now, just say it. Our Zhao family’s foundation in the political arena is not strong to begin with, and now we have lost a future mainstay.
, you said, isn’t this disregarding the interests of the Zhao family?”
"Oh, that's right." Zhao Meifeng said, "However, Tiezhu is a member of the main line after all, so it's understandable that my younger brother prefers him!"
"Hmph, I just can't get used to this. What happened to the people in the main line? Is it possible that he can be unscrupulous just because he is a member of the main line? Several people were sacrificed today, do they have to sacrifice more tomorrow? No, I will never allow this.
Something happened, everyone, please tell me, what should we do? How about the four of us exercise that power?" Zhao Meiqin tried to ask.
"No, no, you can't do that unless you have to"! Zhao Meifeng was the first to shake her head.
"If not, how can we prevent my brother from continuing to make mistakes?" Zhao Meiqin said, "As long as the four major branches of us jointly propose, the power of the family head can be temporarily suspended. This is what our ancestors did to prevent the family head from going his own way.
We set special rules for wrong things, and in this short period of time, we can handle everything as quickly as possible. In this way, we can be considered worthy of our ancestors and worthy of the thousands of children of the Zhao family!"
"I don't agree!" Zhao Meifeng shook her head, stood up directly, and said, "The original clan rules have actually been abolished, but for some reasons, the abolition process has not been completed. I feel that my brother did it
, maybe there may be an affair involved, but he shouldn't be the kind of person who would disregard the interests of the Zhao family, I'm going back!"
After saying that, Zhao Meifeng turned around and left.
