793 Light Wind (Part 2)
Chen Zeqi, the patriarch of the Xiao Chen family, is a very cunning person. As a patriarch, he has all the qualities that he should have. He is calm, cautious, and knows how to use the strategies he has learned to seek benefits for the family. But at this moment, his face was a little ugly. He stared at Chen Zeyi in front of him, and he said slowly: "Sixth brother, I don't understand what you mean. What he is even more curious is that I heard the whistle of alert just now, and two old Chen family guards stood behind you. I wonder if you have colluded with outsiders to harm our Xiao Chen family."
"The person behind me is indeed the guard of the Old Chen family." Chen Zeyi's eyes swept through the window in front and saw a familiar figure in it. He smiled and said, "But the charge of colluding with outsiders is not considered to be my head. I am now from the Old Chen family, and I did it a month ago, so brother, don't charge me randomly."
Chen Zeqi's face looked even more ugly: "What you shed is the blood of the Chen family on you. This is not considered collusion with outsiders, what is considered collusion with outsiders?"
"You also know that the blood of the Xiao Chen family was flowing on me?" Chen Zeyi sneered: "But why twenty years ago, you ignored your brotherly feelings and insisted on harming me. Even the clan elders helped you after they knew the truth. Why didn't you remember that I was your younger brother at that time? Why didn't you want to stop? If I hadn't been smart, pretended not to know anything, and insisted on admitting the crime, fear would have been killed by you long ago."
Chen Zeqi looked around, then shook his sleeves and shouted, "It's nonsense, I don't know what you are talking about. Since you no longer treat yourself as the Chen family, you have brought people to harm our Xiao Chen family, hum, then don't blame me for being ruthless, come here. Take down this rebellion for me, regardless of life or death."
He fell behind. The two little Chen family's guards jumped out of the shadow, but there were no one else. Chen Zeqi was stunned for a moment, and then listened to the shouts of killing and screams at the end. He looked at Chen Zeyi angrily: "How many people have you brought here? No matter how many people you have brought here, this place is where you give birth to you and raise you. How can you be so cold-blooded and ruthless?"
"I thought so too since I can remember it. Until that happened." Chen Zeyi said: "Brother, this is the last time I called you that. The most painful thing in life is to betray and hurt by the person I trust the most. Over the past twenty years, I have always wanted to take revenge. This decadent family should disappear, and it is not qualified to exist in this world again."
"You have the final say whether you have the qualifications or not." Chen Zeqi turned around and pulled out a shiny long sword from the maid behind and rushed towards Chen Zeyi.
At some point, most of the dark clouds in the sky dissipated. Under the moonlight, the sword in Chen Zeqi stabbed Chen Zeyi like a silver snake. The latter quickly retreated a few steps. He set a distance from Chen Zeqi, then lifted his cloak and pulled out a short sword from his back. Then he went up to meet him. He smiled angrily: "Chen Zeqi. We will end the twenty years of grudges tonight."
The two old Chen family's guards wanted to go up to help. Chen Zeyi shouted: "You go and deal with other people, don't let anyone escape. This is a matter between us, don't interfere."
After hearing the words, the two guards bypassed the two and rushed into the room. During the process of entering the room, the two guards easily killed the two guards of the Chen family that had just jumped out. The same guards were also very obvious, sometimes the gap was obvious.
Chen Zeqi was shocked and wanted to block them, but Chen Zeyi was wrapped around at this time, and his sword was pressed against Chen Zeqi's cheek, which scared the latter to no longer be distracted and focused on attacking. The two of them used the family sword techniques of the Xiao Chen family. Now, any big family with some basic medicine has their own set of physical training methods, which are different from the level, but they will definitely not be much worse.
Chen Zeqi and Chen Zeyi are both elites in the Chen family. In addition to the necessary etiquette and knowledge, they have also put some effort into physical practice. Although they are not as strong as top warriors, they are almost the same as ordinary middle-level warriors.
The two of them attacked face to face, almost all of which were desperate to fight, but Chen Zeqi was the patriarch after all. His desperate to fight was pretending, while Chen Zeyi was really desperate to fight. He tried his best to let the other party pierce his left arm, and then took the opportunity to jamm Chen Zeqi's long sword, and finally bullied him in front of him, stabbing Chen Zeqi in the abdomen with a sword.
Chen Zeyi won by exchanging injuries. Chen Zeqi vomited a few mouthfuls of blood. He was staring at Chen Zeyi with unwilling eyes, but his lips moved for a long time, but he didn't say anything after all. When he died, his eyes were not closed.
Chen Zeyi pulled off the sword on his arm, and did not clean up the wound, allowing the blood to flow. He looked at Chen Zeqi lying on the ground and murmured to himself. Others could not hear clearly what he was saying, but in fact he himself didn't know what he was saying. After a while, the two old Chen family's guards came out of the room. One of them said: "We have checked inside. Except for the woman in the portrait, there are only a few other maids."
"Oh, you guys are here to guard me, I'll go in and take a look."
Chen Zeyi entered the room, and he walked through the hall familiarly, and then walked around the inner room. The red candles illuminated the whole room. On the edge of a large bed of a dragon and phoenix, there was a young woman in a long red dress. She was very beautiful and had a cold temperament on her body.
"You're here?"
Chen Zeyi showed a sweet smile on his face: "Yes, I'm here, I'm finally here."
"Red candles, red clothes. I don't have time to wear wedding dresses, and I can't find a veil, so I can only make it this way. As soon as I heard the sound outside, I knew you were here. I looked forward to this day for twenty years." The young woman stood up and looked at Chen Zeyi. Her cold temperament gradually faded away on her body. Her dry eyes gradually became soft and charming, but she looked very flustered, and then she rushed to Chen Zeyi: "You...you are injured, how about it, is it serious?"
Chen Zeyi looked at the woman who was struggling with his wounds while his palms and feet, and then sniffed the fragrance on her body. As twenty years ago, there was no change at all. He smiled with satisfaction. Twenty years of patience, twenty years of lovesickness, and twenty years of pain were for the moment in front of him.
The screams of Xiao Chen's family quickly attracted the attention of all the big families in Heluo City. Everyone in each family spontaneously began to take a twelve-point mental alert. They all guessed that there will be a shocking event in Heluo City tonight.
Sure enough, not long after, the Chen family members appeared in groups on various streets in Heluo City. They repeated the words: "Tonight's curfew, irrelevant people cannot appear on the streets. If there are any disobediences, behead!"
Such voices were repeated over and over in Heluo City. Looking at the fully armed old Chen family's guards, even the most vicious red-armed men did not dare to feel dissatisfied. Generally speaking, the curfew was carried out by the yamen runners of Heluo City, but at this moment, the old Chen family was over the responsibilities. Not only did the Heluo City Mansion have no movement, but there was no sound in the palace.
The Liang Palace was also quiet, as if there was no one else.
In the Donglin Society, Chang Zhiqiu was on the third floor, looking through the window at a group of soldiers from the Chen family outside holding torches. Although these people were still guarding the hospital, Chang Zhiqiu seemed to have the temperament of an army.
"The Chen family has regarded itself as the real master of Heluo City." Lin Youde, who was standing beside him, laughed twice: "The change of dynasty actually happened to our generation. Have I ever thought it would happen."
Chang Zhiqiu sighed: "It's a pity that this matter is not dominated by us. The changes in previous dynasties are all the shadow of our Donglin Society, but when we are in our post, haha, the Chen family simply regards us as nothing. If we cannot participate in it, it will be difficult to gain greater voice in the court in the future."
Lin Youde said lightly: "But no matter what, in our Zhendan Kingdom, if we want to govern the country, it is impossible to bypass our scholars and our Donglin Society. Although we are temporarily at a disadvantage, we can slowly come back in the future."
Chang Zhiqiu said: "But we can't see it. We have some grudges with the Chen family. It will take at least several decades to resolve this small grudge."
"Do you regret it?" Lin Youde asked.
Chang Zhiqiu shook his head: "What do you regret? It is our responsibility as president to fight for greater rights and interests for our scholars."
Lin Youde bowed slightly: "The president is indeed very wise. I'll go down to see the situation."
Chang Zhiqiu nodded.
Lin Youde walked down the stairs, and his face became slightly mocking in a place where Chang Zhiqiu could not see. But soon he looked as usual. Donglin Society no longer had much combat power, because most of the top combat power of the mercenary union was killed by the Qin family. It would take at least ten years to restore vitality and wait for the next generation to grow up.
However, the ability of Donglin Society does not lie in its open combat power, but in its almost omnipresent influence. Most of the officials in the Zhendan Kingdom were scholars who went out of Donglin Society, or they had a close relationship with Donglin Society. In the past, such influence was invincible. In addition, with the combat power of the mercenary union, it can almost be said to be an invincible organization.
But when we met the Old Chen family, it was a little uncomfortable. First of all, no one in the Old Chen family worked in the court, so it was a bit difficult to put pressure on the officialdom. However, the recent riots in the north and south had to be suppressed by a large army, which was completely impossible. Moreover, the Old Chen family now has two sun god servants and one dragon clan. Two of the three major forces are ambiguous.
Why can't scholars be emperors? Isn't it that the Sun Temple is under the pressure and the Dragon Clan is watching? In other words, the Chen family, supported by the Sun God servant, does not care about the influence of Donglin Society at all.
Lin Youde came downstairs and entered his room. He wrote a simple letter on the desktop, tied it to the feet of a letter, and then came to the window and let it fly. (To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
