Chapter 719 719 Balance, long-term unity must be divided
Will the Xiao family believe what the Qi family says?
Feng Qi didn't know how to answer this question, because if it were him, he would never believe it.
The Qi family had the motive to kill Xiao Shaorong.
After the death of the Qi family's heir, their strength will definitely plummet in the past few years. The other three major families will definitely not miss this opportunity to swallow up the Qi family.
If there are no accidents, the Qi family will definitely be ranked at the bottom of the four major aristocratic families, or even fall out of the ranking of the four major aristocratic families and be eaten by the other three major aristocratic families.
Even if the three great families, Feng, Xiao and Wang, do not take action, some second-rate families will not let this opportunity pass.
The Qi family, without an heir, was in a very dangerous situation.
However, if something happens to the Xiao family, Wang family or Feng family again at this time, then everyone's strength will be even.
The four major families have all suffered heavy losses, and they have no energy to share the food of the Qi family. The Qi family can also breathe for a while.
As for the second-rate family taking advantage of the situation?
If all the four major families have been hurt, they will naturally unite at this time to resist outsiders and prevent others from dividing their power.
The four major aristocratic families seem to be united, but in fact each family is very selfish. They will only unite when facing a common enemy.
For example, when facing the emperor.
They knew that the emperor wanted to suppress the aristocratic families. If they did not unite and let the emperor defeat them one by one, all four of their major aristocratic families would be doomed.
However, if the emperor does not take action against aristocratic families, those second-rate aristocratic families will only target one, and the other three will not take action easily.
Anyway, if there is no Qi family, another big family will appear. At that time, they will also have four big families, and they will join forces to resist the emperor.
These are the rules of life for the four major families, and the reality is terrifying.
Feng Qi knew that the Xiao family could not believe the Qi family's statement, and could not even convince Xiao Jiuan, but...
Feng Qi can be sure that the head of the Qi family did not lie.
"My lord, the head of the Qi family doesn't have the brains or the courage." Feng Qi couldn't answer Xiao Jiu'an's words directly and could only answer sideways.
The head of the Qi family does not have the courage to confront the Feng, Xiao, and Wang families at the same time. If this is not done well, it will lead to crazy revenge from the other three families.
By then, the Qi family will not just fall out of the four major aristocratic families.
"I know, but so what?" The Qi family did not have the courage, but they became the guns in the hands of the people behind the scenes. "The person who ambushed Xiao Shaorong was trained by the Qi family."
This alone is enough to make the Qi family eat a pot.
"The head of the Qi family also knows that this matter is the fault of the Qi family. That's why the head of the Qi family asked me to come forward and speak out. He wants to personally explain to Young Master Xiao and discuss an apology to the Xiao family." The apology Feng Qi said was naturally not just verbal.
an apology, but a cession of interests.
Speaking of which, the Qi family is not just unlucky. After their heir died and they couldn't find anyone to do it, they still had to come out and apologize. It was really sad.
However, the head of the Qi family is incompetent and has caused today's situation. No matter how unwilling he is, he will hold his nose and admit it, unless he wants to see the Qi family fall out of the four major aristocratic families.
The Qi family is mainly grateful that he has such a good nephew as Feng Qi, otherwise the Xiao family would not pay attention to him at all given the current situation of the Qi family.
"What do you want to do?" Xiao Jiu'an deserves to be called Xiao Jiu'an, and he understood Feng Qi's arrangement at just one glance.
If you are just apologizing, there is no need to go to Young Master Xiao. The most sincere and real apology would be if the Qi family head went directly to the Xiao family.
"Introducing you into the urn. A young master Xiao, an heir of the Feng family, plus the head of the Qi family, King Yanbei, is this enough?" Feng Qi looked at Xiao Jiu'an with a smile, a gentle and elegant smile, faintly...
A hint of evil that is hard to detect.
It's not annoying, but it adds another three points of charm to Feng Qi.
Seeing Feng Qi like this, Xiao Jiuan was deeply grateful that he didn't act quickly enough.
Feng Qi has everything that fascinates women. As long as Feng Qi is willing, he believes that Feng Qi can attract the love of any woman.
"You are so sure that I, the king, will agree." Xiao Jiuan moved slightly, covering up his thoughts with a calm expression.
"Because you... Xiao Jiu'an has always been a person who dares to take risks. There is nothing in this world that you can't dare to take." If you dare to run to Yanbei alone and then come back alone, what else can Xiao Jiu'an dare not do?
Does Xiao Jiuan know how many people were frightened when he appeared in the palace on New Year's Eve?
Ninety-nine percent of the people in the capital, including the emperor, believe that Xiao Jiuan will not return to the capital after leaving Ji Yunkai behind, and will stay in Yanbei from now on. The sky is high and the earth is far away. No matter what the emperor does, he will never return to the capital.
Won't come back again.
Unexpectedly, Xiao Jiuan not only came back, but also came back so quickly, which shocked everyone's eyes.
At that time, many people in Beijing were saying that King Yanbei doted on his princess to the heavens, letting everyone know that King Yanbei would do whatever it takes to be his princess. This was done for the emperor and the world, just so that one day, he would be the princess.
If his princess is thrown into the capital as a hostage, the emperor and the people of the world will not be suspicious.
At that time, many noble ladies and rich ladies in the capital were making fun of Yun Kai behind their backs, but...
Xiao Jiuan came back, so forcefully and so quickly, he slapped everyone hard, including the emperor.
A proud man like Xiao Jiu'an dared to come back on his own initiative after getting out of the trouble in Beijing. What else could such a man not dare to do?
"It's useless even if you praise me to the heavens. This matter has nothing to do with me. I don't need to play with you." This is the highest praise Xiao Jiu'an has ever heard from Feng Qi, but...
Xiao Jiuan couldn't be happy.
He was obviously going to be tricked by Feng Qi. At this time, let alone if Feng Qi only praised him a few words or three words, he wouldn't be happy, okay?
"I'm just telling the truth... Your Majesty thinks I'm complimenting you, so that's fine." There was no trace of embarrassment on Feng Qi's face, his face was calm and calm, and he couldn't be more sincere.
Facing such a person, to be honest... that is, Xiao Jiuan can reject him, but most people really can't.
Feng Qi has a charm that makes people believe in him.
Feng Qi looked calm and without any impatience, and continued: "Your Majesty, you should understand that after the four great families have collapsed, you will be the next one. Does this matter really have nothing to do with Your Majesty?"
The power in the court is all about balance. If the four major families fall, the balance will be broken, and Xiao Jiu'an, the King of Yanbei, will not be able to get any favors.
"I have always thought that my purpose is to balance the four generals." When something happened to the Chu family, he joined forces with the four generals. Unfortunately...
Except for General Chu, the others are cautious people who dare not take the lead at all and just want to maintain their current glory.
But as everyone knows, there are thousands of miles of mountains and rivers in this world, but there is no power that lasts ten thousand years.
The power of the world will be divided for a long time, and it will be divided for a long time. Speaking of the four generals, even the royal family cannot be permanent for ten thousand years.
The four generals have enjoyed so much glory for so many years, and it’s time to come to an end... (To be continued)
