No matter how smart Changsun Wuji was, no matter how much the elder of the clan learned and became rich, he would never understand the intention of Fang Jun's mischievous words...
Who would have thought that Orange could be associated with his father?
The two of them thought very hard and murmured for a long time, but they still couldn't understand the meaning of Fang Jun's words, so they had no choice but to give up.
Changsun Wuji never thought about whether Fang Jun was just talking nonsense, because judging from Fang Jun's superb literary talent, the rumors that he had learned from others was pure nonsense. If he didn't have the ability to read tens of thousands of volumes,
How could it be possible to write such stunningly talented poems and articles?
And these people who are very knowledgeable will inevitably quote scriptures to show their knowledge. The reason why Fang Jun said such an incomprehensible sentence was that there was no hint of a test in it, just waiting to see that he could not understand this.
The embarrassment of a sentence...
But even if it gave him a headache, Changsun Wuji still couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
Seeing the youngest legitimate son, Changsun Run, kneeling in front of the soul, stretching out his little hand to add sesame oil to the Changming lamp with a solemn look, Changsun Wuji, who was originally in a gloomy mood, raised his hand to gently caress the head of Changsun Run.
The thick curtain at the door was opened, a gust of cold wind poured in, and the flame of the ever-burning lamp flickered and flickered, flickering on and off.
Changsun Run exclaimed, jumped up from the ground quickly, crossed his small body to block the wind, stretched out his small hand to hold the light in his palm...
Changsun Wuji frowned slightly, his expression turned cold, and he looked back calmly at the concubine Changsun Huan, who strode in with an imposing figure.
Changsun Huan was stared at by his father's cold eyes, and his heart suddenly shivered, wondering where he had made a mistake?
Feeling anxious in his heart, when he arrived in front of Changsun Wuji, he bowed down and saluted politely: "My child has seen his father."
Changsun Wuji said "hmm" and ignored him, but said warmly to Changsun Run: "It's late at night and the wind is cold. You are young and your body has not yet grown up. Go back and rest as soon as possible."
Changsun Run quickly said: "The child is not sleepy, nor does he feel cold. Father, look, he is wearing many clothes. The child has to stay here to keep vigil for the sixth brother. The sixth brother always treats me best. If he comes back, he won't see me."
, I’m afraid I’ll be sad…”
The tender voice of a child is the most sincere expression.
Changsun Wuji felt warm in his heart and looked at his younger son fondly, his tone unquestionable: "Be obedient and go to bed quickly. Since you remember that the sixth brother loves you the most, you must grow up into a man who is upright and upright. In this way,
Even if Brother Six is gone, I will still be happy."
"Here."
Changsun Run reluctantly agreed, bowed to Changsun Huan again, left the mourning hall under the care of the maid, and returned to his own yard to sleep.
Changsun Wuji watched his youngest son's frail figure disappear at the door. He waved his hand and sent all his uncles and brothers out of the mourning hall, leaving only Changsun Huan...
There was a brazier burning in the mourning hall, which was quite warm, but Changsun Huan felt a chill rising from the bottom of his heart for no reason, and his legs trembled subconsciously.
Facing this father who was always majestic and powerful, Changsun Huan swallowed his saliva, suppressed his guilty conscience, and asked respectfully: "I don't know if the father has called the child here, but do you have something to ask?"
The hall was brightly lit with candles and filled with smoke.
Changsun Wuji's face looked increasingly gloomy and strange under the flickering candlelight. He turned a deaf ear to Changsun Huan's words and stared straight at the huge and heavy coffin in the mourning hall with deep eyes...
After a long time, when Changsun Huan was feeling unreasonable, Changsun Wuji finally asked: "I'm here to ask you, where were you on the night Liu Lang was killed?"
Changsun Huan's heart skipped a beat and he quickly said: "The boy was going to Hedong on his father's order to celebrate the birthday of Grand Duke Liu."
Changsun Wuji knelt on the ground and slowly raised his head, staring at Changsun Huan with gloomy eyes. Not letting go of any expression on his face, he asked: "Did you meet with your eldest brother that night?"
"Eldest brother?" Changsun Huan looked a little surprised and denied: "I reported back to my father, but I never did. That night, the child stayed at Liu's house and met with Liu and Xue according to his father's instructions to discuss confidential matters, but he never returned to the capital."
Changsun Wuji said in a cold tone: "How did you know that your eldest brother was in the capital that night?"
Changsun Huan asked curiously: "Isn't it? The child only got the news on the third day after the sixth brother's accident. However, at the same time, the father sent someone to tell the child that the matter was urgent and the child was not allowed to return to the capital. Later, it was revealed that the eldest brother had kidnapped Princess Changle, and the child just got the news
I know that the eldest brother has always been in the capital, and... to say something disrespectful, I am afraid that the death of the sixth brother will have something to do with the eldest brother."
His speech was clear and logical, and there was nothing questionable about it.
But Changsun Wuji had already made up his mind, how could he be fooled so easily?
But I only have suspicions. Without any real evidence, how can I easily blame the most powerful son now? And Changsun Chong, who is probably the only one who knows the truth, is now in exile in Shu, and he does not know whether he is alive or dead...
What sin did you commit by falling to the ground and raising a group of such cold-blooded and ruthless beasts?
Changsun Wuji lowered his eyelids slightly, with a lonely and sad look on his face. He sighed and said earnestly: "My father is old, and now your eldest brother is in exile. You have to take more responsibility for the family affairs, share your father's worries, and set an example for your brothers. Stay tuned.
After becoming a father for a hundred years, you will also need to bear this family inheritance."
This is a clear statement that the position of head of the Changsun family will be handed over to Changsun Huanlai in the future.
The sudden ecstasy took over Changsun Huan's mind in an instant!
It's actually... so easy?
The position of head of the family that I had coveted for a long time, held back for many years, and thought I had no hope of getting it in this life, could I get it so easily?
Changsun Huan was in a daze. When he saw Changsun Wuji's cold and complicated eyes, his heart suddenly shivered. He quickly gathered his mind and said in panic: "My father is in his prime, and the children and brothers are still immature. They still need father's words and deeds to teach them. Now,
When it comes to the matter of the head of the family, it is really too early to talk about it, and the child is frightened..."
"Haha, haven't you always coveted the position of the head of the family? How come you have it in your hands, but you are so frightened that you are walking on thin ice?"
Changsun Wuji sneered, his tone unmistakable.
"Plop"
Changsun Huan changed his face in shock, knelt on the ground and shouted: "Father, calm down, I know I was wrong!"
Is it possible that everything he did has been known to his father?
Changsun Wuji snorted: "What's wrong?"
Changsun Huan's heart was spinning, and he looked remorseful, and cried sadly: "My child is wrong! Ever since the eldest brother's accident, my child has been coveting the position of the head of the family. It's not that he is dissatisfied with his father, but he feels that no matter what his ability or means, he can't do anything.
Except for the eldest brother, they are all the best ones. If the father does not establish the eldest son, the child will feel dissatisfied... But the child has forgotten that the father has been tirelessly teaching us that brothers and sisters should be respectful and respectful to each other.
Love, only when brothers work together is the foundation for a family to stand firm... If you realize your mistake, please ask your father to punish you."
Although he was shocked that his father actually suspected that he had colluded with Chang Sun Chong in the death of Chang Sun Dan, but since he sent others to inquire privately, it was either limited to the suspicion stage, or he saw that the Chang Sun family was in turmoil, even if his eldest Sun Huan was responsible for it.
Any character who cannot bear it can only endure it silently...
Otherwise, based on Changsun Wuji's situation, not to mention that he was involved in Changsun Dan's death, but that he had an affair with Changsun Dan's concubine, he would definitely be hurt. If the death of Changsun Dan was related to his relationship with him
The concubine’s affair is related...
It wouldn't be surprising if he beat himself to death directly.
Changsun Wuji raised his eyelids again and looked at the bastard in front of him who seemed to have been neglected or suddenly grown up, with mixed feelings in his heart.
His eldest grandson, Wuji, was an outstanding person all his life, but when he grew old, he had many heirs but failed to accomplish much. Could it be that he could only rely on this bastard with evil intentions and deep wealth to inherit the family business and entrust the future of the eldest grandson's family to his hands?
superior?
And there is an extremely important link in this. Changsun Huan has always been on good terms with Fang Jun, and even named him as the person in charge of the Changsun family's shares in "Dong Datang Company". So, is there any Fang Jun behind the whole thing?
Jun’s shadow?
What's more, was Changsun Huan's actions under Fang Jun's instructions or hints?
Changsun Wuji firmly believes that even if there is friendship between Fang Jun and Changsun Huan, it is absolutely impossible for the Changsun family to still stand at the top of the family...
After pondering for a moment, waves of fatigue came over him. Changsun Wuji rubbed his brows and said dejectedly, "Please step aside. As a father, I still have things to think about."
Let’s put it aside and take a look at the situation before talking about it.
He can tolerate Changsun Huan's evil intentions, but he feels that he cannot tolerate Changsun Huan being dominated and commanded by Fang Jun...
"Here."
Changsun Huan responded, stood up and exited the mourning hall.
A gust of cold wind blew, and Changsun Huan felt chills all over his body. He was still frightened and then realized that his underwear was completely soaked with cold sweat...
