Hai Jingping was so furious that he almost wanted to tear his face apart, even to the people behind Bizhu's mother-in-law. Because he really suffered unintentionally this time, he didn't get any benefit at all. He just wanted to express his gratitude to Jiang Wangxincheng and asked him to say a word.
He knew very well that in the end, Master Chongguang had the final say on matters at the Sea Festival Ceremony.
But Granny Bizhu repeatedly made false accusations and committed crimes as a practical elder. She did not take him seriously at all and treated him as a piece of food!
He has reached the end of his endurance and does not want to endure it anymore.
But Master Chongguang stopped talking, and he could not say anything else. After all, for a person like him, the overall situation of Diaohailou outweighed his personal honor and disgrace.
As for Chongguang Zhenren.
Bizhu who complained at this time was from the fourth elder Gu Huaixin's faction, and the deceased Haizongming was from the second elder Qin Zhen's faction.
As for the defendant Hai Jingping, others may not know it, but they cannot hide it from him. He and the third elder Xu Xiangwan have a tacit understanding on many things. In short, these people have their own backgrounds, and none of them belongs to his family.
.
He doesn’t want to care about the power struggle behind these people, and he doesn’t have to.
No matter how big the Diaohai Building is, its resources are not infinite, and competition is inevitable. There are so many peak outer buildings. When the opportunity to advance to the Divine Land appears, who will go? Who will not go? These all need to be fought for.
Competition is indispensable in a normal and healthy system.
It just depends on the occasion and be measured.
On weekdays, you can just sit back and watch, but at this time in Tianyatai, it is difficult for the people of Yanggu and Jueming Island to see too many jokes.
This does not mean that there cannot be struggles within Diaohailou, but the intensity must be controlled, and at the level of the elders protecting the sect, the limit is reached.
When it comes to Elder Jinghai, it’s called going too far.
As the highest-ranking person in the Diaohai Building present, Mr. Chongguang must show his attitude.
He glanced at Hai Jingping and Granny Bizhu lightly. His eyes were not sharp, but he had already expressed enough warning: "Today is the day of worshiping the sea. No matter what you do or what you think, you must distinguish the priorities. Between you two,
Let’s discuss the issue later.”
Even if Hai Jingping was dissatisfied, he could only suppress it first.
For Granny Bizhu, her first goal of the faction is to knock down Hai Jingping and suppress the faction power of the third elder Xu Xiangwan. Her first personal goal is to take advantage of the opportunity to gain enough benefits for herself. As for
From whom this benefit comes is secondary.
Since Hai Jingping and Jiang Wang were cautious enough and asked her not to obtain evidence of bribery, it was impossible to defeat Hai Jingping on the spot, and she would even have to take responsibility for the false accusation. But after the sea festival, she
There are many ways to solve it.
At this time, Master Chong Guang stepped forward to stop her, and she just took advantage of the situation to stop.
"I will obey the order of the real person." Granny Bizhu expressed her position respectfully, but then she said: "We can put aside the matter of Elder Hai for now. This little thief who disrupted the sea festival ceremony must not be let go. I would like to express my condolences.
The state has its own laws and the sect has its rules. Lao Shen's disciple Zhu Biqiong committed an unforgivable crime and should be destroyed physically and mentally. Lao Shen... will not be merciful! Moreover, she herself has already confessed to this matter, and there is a mountain of ironclad evidence.
There is no defense, how can we delay the sea ceremony for a mere brat from Qi State?"
“If this one is crying out for injustice, and that one is crying out for injustice, and the forty-five prisoners are shouting down one by one, do we still have to continue the sea festival ceremony?”
Finally, she bowed to Master Chongguang: "Please allow me to take action and capture this little thief for Diaohailou. I will prove my loyalty and wash away all the dirt on my body!"
Seeing that Hai Jingping's gains in Tianya Terrace have been wasted, she did not want to let go of Jiang Wang's gains.
Although Jiang Wang successfully counterattacked and killed Haizongming, no one would think that he did it alone. After all, everyone can clearly see the gap between the first inner palace and the fourth outer mansion.
Of course, Qi State promoted Jiang Wang’s arrogance and leapfrogged his ranks to kill powerful enemies. However, Diaohailou generally believed that it was Qi State who sent strong men to escort Jiang Wang after learning about Haizongming’s whereabouts.
Including Granny Bizhu herself, she was absolutely confident in dealing with Jiang Wang. She regarded taking down Jiang Wang as a way to get something out of her pocket, so she repeatedly asked to take action in person, just because she was afraid that others would share some of Jiang Wang's benefits.
No matter how much you are praised as a genius, you don’t have enough time to grow up, and you can only be manipulated. You can only crouch on the ground and wait for the verdict!
Master Chongguang was noncommittal and just looked at Jiang Wang and said: "Jiang Wang, is it Jiang Wang? Today has been noisy enough to make me upset. Please step back now and I will not be held accountable for disturbing the sea festival."
Grandma Bizhu spoke impassionedly, but he ignored her. Perhaps it was to slap the person behind Granny Bizhu, but more likely, he still considered the ideas of Yang Feng and Qi Xiao.
They had just spoken out in support of Jiang Wang. If Diaohailou changes hands, they will kill Jiang Wang. It is quite suspected of being a slap in the face, but how do the two real people deal with it?
No matter how strong Diaohailou is, there is no need to humiliate the real people in this world.
And telling Jiang Wang to shut up directly would not only block the mouths of the two real people, but also quickly end the matter.
After the sea sacrifice ceremony is over, isn’t it the Diaohai Tower that has the final say on right and wrong in this offshore archipelago?
But Jiang Wang also understands this truth.
Otherwise, why did he not open his mouth to overturn the verdict of Zhu Biqiong until today, when all the forces in the offshore islands gathered together?
Because before this, he didn't even have a chance to speak! He wanted to find someone to talk to, but he didn't know which way to open the door, let alone try to reverse the case. Even if he found a mountain of ironclad evidence, it would be difficult to make waves.
After this, Zhu Biqiong is gone. Does it matter whether the verdict is overturned or not?
It’s not that he insists on choosing today, but today is indeed the only opportunity and the best time.
“Master, please give me a clear warning.” Jiang Wang was respectful and polite: “Jiang Wang’s actions today are not out of madness, nor are they disrupting the sea festival ceremony. On the contrary, they are to maintain the sacred meaning of the sea festival ceremony!”
Master Chongguang looked at him: "It seems that you are determined today."
How strong is a real person’s sense of oppression?
People may not all know it, but they can all guess it.
But people also saw at the same time that Jiang Wang still straightened his spine.
He looked at Master Chongguang uprightly and calmly: "It's not that the heart is as hard as iron, but that I have to go where my righteousness lies. Although Jiang Wang is not talented, he can't bear to bring shame to the heroic spirit!"
Grandma Bizhu said angrily from the side: "How noble the real person is, why waste your time and words on this thief? Why don't you let me do it..."
She went back and forth just to rely on her cultivation to deal with Jiang Wang.
“Master Chong!” Jiang Wuyou, who was sitting upright at the main seat, stood up and held on to the armrest: “You servants in Diaohai Tower don’t seem to be very sensible. Why are you listening to me? She wants to be your master?”
Although substantive elders are regarded as lower-level elders, they are by no means “lower men”. This is undoubtedly a humiliation.
“You!” Granny Bizhu was furious.
Master Chongguang raised his hand to stop her from speaking, and turned to look at Jiang Wuyou: "Palace Master Huaying has spoken to this person again and again, which shows that he attaches great importance to this person. But this sea festival ceremony is not for my Diaohailou family.
If one family can be detained, can it affect ten thousand families? If there is really any inside story, it won’t be too late to discuss it after the sea festival is over.”
“It’s time to start clearing things up, so Jueming Island doesn’t feel like it’s a delay.” Qi Xiao said coldly.
Master Chongguang looked at her. She sat still, expressionless.
The pressure of this kind of confrontation between real people makes people tighten their hearts and make them almost breathless.
The whole place fell into a suffocating silence.
This dead silence was broken by a seemingly reckless voice.
"I promise to do it! I don't feel that I have been delayed!" In the crowd on both sides, a man with an extremely high forehead suddenly stood up. I saw his high-pitched voice and unspeakable generosity: "Where justice lies, don't talk about it for a while. It is appropriate to fight for the rest of your life!"
Given the position he is sitting in and his level of cultivation, he should not be qualified to speak. I don’t know where these reckless people come from on Tianya Platform today.
Someone asked in a low voice: "Who is he?"
“Xu Xiangqian of Qingya Academy!” Before anyone could whisper the answer, Xu Xiangqian had already announced his family name: “This is what my master, Mo Ya, taught me!”
This favor is too big. Jiang Wang thought to himself.
Moving out his master and Qingya Academy on this occasion is not just talk. Because of his status as a direct disciple of the great Confucian scholar, Xu Gao'e, at least at this time, really represents Qingya Academy to a certain extent!
And he must not have obtained permission beforehand, and he will definitely be punished afterwards. Otherwise, there are so many disciples in the academy, and everyone would be able to use chicken feathers as an arrow, and the reputation of the academy would have been ruined long ago.
Almost as soon as Xu Xiangqian’s voice fell to the ground, another heroic man stood up.
But I saw that he had a jade belt wrapped around his forehead, his sword-shaped eyebrows were bright, and his voice was like gold and stone: "If there is any doubt about the unforgivable crime, of course it is best to make it clear. What's the point of delaying a little time? There must be no unjust blood on the way back to the heroic spirit!"
The beautiful woman next to him did not get up, nor did she appear to be very excited. She only added in a frosty voice: "This is the opinion of Ice Phoenix Island."
If you say that Xu Xiangqian is just pretending to pull the skin of a tiger.
Then Li Fengyao and Li Longchuan, siblings, can completely represent Ice Phoenix Island and the Shimen Li family. The weight of these voices is extremely heavy.
Beside Xu Xiangqian, Yan Fu, who was calm and restrained, stood up and held his hands in his hands, saying in a gentle and polite manner: "I, Yan Fu, only represent a person, and I will not begrudge this little time. Please also ask Master Chong to eliminate the evil spirits and return a bright moon to Tianya Terrace!!"
He cannot be the head of the Yan family, nor can he do things like Xu Xiangqian's decision to kill first and then deal with it later. But he can at least provide support on his own behalf.
Tian Chang simply stood up and said only one sentence: "Bajiao Island believes in justice."
Sit down simply again.
It is simple to say, but the weight is anything but simple.
Bajiao Island is the overseas base of the Osawada family, and together with Chongjia Island, it is one of the two islands controlled by the Tian family.
The influence of the Osawada family in the offshore islands is also stronger than that of the Shimen Li family.
“We at Longmen Academy...well!”
Just as Zishu was about to jump up, Zhao Wuyan next to him covered his mouth.
But the girl's voice was already halfway out, so Zhao Wuyan had no choice but to continue: "Longmen Academy disciples Zhao Wuyan and Zi Shu all believe that Diaohailou will handle this matter properly. On behalf of us personally, we look forward to a good result."
These words are somewhat impartial, but by saying them at this time, they have made their position clear.
Xu Xiangqian glanced at Zhao Wuyan with emotion. If there weren't so many people at this moment, he would have really wanted to hold hands with her and look at each other immediately. What a considerate woman! How much she loves him! Even though she usually doesn't use pretentious words, at the critical moment, she is still Support him without reservation! Support his friends!
In his daze, Xu Xiangqian almost forgot that Jiang Qingyang, who was also known as the two prides of Duma Mountain and him, was still on the court asking for a chance.
Zhong Xuanxin, who had already received the order, would certainly not fall behind at this time.
Although he was not very strong and did not show much momentum, he made the biggest move to get up. He almost jumped up and said at the top of his lungs: "Neverwinter Island is willing to seek justice, no matter how long it takes!"
He is so excited!
How many times in your life can you speak out on the Tianya Platform?
What a sect leader, a real person, everyone must listen to what he says! So domineering!
He has long recognized Jiang Wang's talent. After witnessing Wu Yi's easier capture, he was even more convinced that Jiang Wang would definitely grow into a strong man in the future. But he didn't expect that Jiang Wang not only had amazing talent, but also had such a wide network of contacts!
Good guy, Qingya Academy, one of the four major academies in the world, the top famous Shimen Li family, Osawada family, Beijun Yan family, and Longmen Academy, another one of the four major academies, plus our Chongxuan family, Is this going to take over the world?
Although the world is huge, where can’t we go?
Among these forces, one family or one surname may not be noticed by Diaohailou at sea. But the combined voice must not be ignored!
Even the first elder of Diaohailou, Chongguang Zhenren, cannot ignore it indifferently.
But he even laughed, and he still had time to glance at Yang Feng: "I wonder what Brother Yang thinks of this matter?"
Yanggu’s Xuanwei Banner general smiled: “I listen to everyone.”
At first, there was no disturbance and he made sarcastic remarks. Now that the crowd was turbulent, he refused to strive for the first place. He firmly grasped the sense of proportion and confronted Diaohailou head-on. After all, it was not the behavior of a wise general.
Zhenren Chongguang remained calm, as if the scene that was almost forcing him into the palace before him had no impact on him.
But he finally turned back and looked at Jiang Wang: "Okay, young man. You now have the opportunity to state your so-called 'grievances'. But I want to remind you, if you don't have enough evidence..."
He chuckled and said: "Although it is unbearable to see the genius wither, someone must be responsible for the delay of the sea sacrifice ceremony."
The implication is that you will die.
If he had just ignored it before and only regarded what was happening in front of him as an interesting drama, he could even appreciate this young genius.
So when he was forced to make a concession, even if the concession was so insignificant, he had already made murderous intentions.
This is a murderous intention from a real person in this world.
Jiang Wang remained silent.
But he did not miss a single bit of those heavy friendships.
Is it difficult to save Zhu Biqiong?
too difficult!
He just wanted a chance to speak, so he had to first please Granny Bi Zhu in every possible way, and then beg Hai Jingping. Even so, he had to receive a slap as soon as he came up and vomit blood before he could speak.
This is just an opening.
To finish the sentence completely, Mr. Sogo still needs to nod.
But he couldn't even find the door of Chongguang Zhenren's house anywhere, so he had no qualifications to ask for a visit.
There is absolutely no possibility of transaction between him and Mr. Sogo, because both parties are not equal at all.
Zhong Xuan Sheng went against the grain and came up with a way to use the pressure of public opinion to overwhelm Mr. Chongguang, which is extremely audacious.
According to Chong Xuan Sheng’s plan, Jiang Wuyou spoke in support of Jiang Wang, and then Osawa Tianshi supported him. (Jiang Wang had already negotiated with Tian Chang in advance, and Tian Chang got Tian Anping’s support for some unknown reason.
.)
These two weighty sounds are the prelude.
Chong Xuan Sheng had already bribed some elders of small sects and asked them to stand up and say a word or two when necessary. There was no need to oppose Diao Hailou, but to express the "public opinion" that longed for justice, and only wanted the truth.
Diaohailou claims to be the master of the offshore islands and cannot blatantly trample on public opinion.
In this way, Jiang Wang can be given the opportunity to tell his story completely.
But he didn't expect that Qingya Academy, the Shimen Li family, the Yan family of Bei County, and even the disciples of Longmen Academy whom he had just met for a short time would all be willing to speak for Jiang Wang. So much so that the elders of the small sects whom Zhong Xuansheng had bribed would not be able to speak for Jiang Wang at all.
There is no need to show up.
Because public opinion has been formed.
Of course, Diao Hailou could ignore these voices, or even organize more voices immediately to disrupt public opinion. As long as Diao Hailou gave a casual hint, many people would rush to speak. But the scene just now has been left here, no matter what
may be forgotten.
There is doubt about the sinners who were used as sea sacrifices. This will not be forgotten.
And who can really ignore the power represented by these people and these voices coming together?
Let’s see.
Even the first elder of Diaohailou, Chongguang Zhenren, one of the most powerful people in the entire sea, must lower his arrogant head now and listen to Jiang Wang's words, which he should have said long ago.
Even if the person’s attitude is not polite and threatening, it is already so difficult to get a real person to give in!
Jiang Wang did not become arrogant because of Master Chongguang's concession. His attitude remained upright, and could even be called humble.
"Where does this junior have the courage to talk nonsense without evidence?" He bowed deeply to Master Chongguang, then slowly straightened up and turned to look at Granny Bizhu: "Actually, you just said a few words,
That’s quite right.”
Granny Bizhu was secretly frightened. When the queens from the famous families stood up one by one, she already felt that things seemed to be out of control. Jiang Wangyuan was more energetic than she thought, and she recognized Jiang Wang and Zhongxuan Sheng to the maximum extent.
She had made friends with her, but she didn't expect so many people to speak out now... This means that her plan may not be enough.
The consequences of miscalculation are terrible, especially for her who has so many hidden things.
But no one could find the slightest trace of panic on her face.
Having lived for so many years, she knows one thing very well: many times, people are defeated not by their opponents, but by their own panic!
So not only did she not panic, but she snorted coldly and said aggressively: "What did I say that I said was wrong? The law of heaven is clear, you wolf..."
"Zhu Biqiong has a pure nature. She is here today because she was seduced by a traitor!" Jiang Wang suddenly raised his voice and interrupted her: "You are right!"
“But that traitor is not Elder Hai Jingping, let alone me who is far inland and cannot be contacted at all.”
For the first time, he stared at the white-haired old lady in front of him with such sharp eyes, and said firmly: "It's you, this old pious woman!"
