In the main hall, a group of young men and maids all respectfully retired. In the huge main hall of Tinghai Court, only the direct descendants of the Fu family were left.

Outside the hall, Fu Yu and more than a dozen monks stood at the end of the corridor, not allowing anyone to approach the main hall. In nearby buildings, high walls, and pavilions where there might be people, there were monks standing with bows.

Their only purpose is to seal this place and prevent anyone from getting close.

Everyone in the hall didn't know why their grandfather had arranged it like this, so they could only sit quietly on the chairs and look at the rickety old man on the main seat with burning eyes.

With the sound of the teacup falling on the table, an awkward smile finally appeared on Fu Yuchen's stiff face.

Fu Shan smashed his mouth and spit out a small piece of tea in his mouth. He didn't have the demeanor of the Fu family elders of the five major Jiangnan aristocratic families at all. He looked at his descendants and asked, "Let's talk about it. What do you think about this matter?"

"Grandpa, this matter must be investigated strictly, and the boy named Xu cannot be allowed to talk about it randomly. Our Fu family must not be slandered without evidence."

"Yes, Grandpa, the Yin and Yang Clan is rebellious. We, the Fu family, must not let that straight-faced man frame us up out of thin air. We will definitely make the Xu family pay the price."

"Grandpa, Grandpa. I think we should treat this matter with caution. After all, the Xu family was almost wiped out by the Yin and Yang Sect. No normal person would believe what that boy Xu Fan said. Also, that

Why did the boy appear in our Fu family? This matter cannot be easily revealed."

Listening to the noisy discussion of the brothers and sisters in the hall, Fu Hongwen coughed slightly, looked at Fu Shan on the throne, and reminded. "Master, the most urgent task now is to communicate with the other major families. We cannot let the Governor's Mansion and the

Governor, the magistrate’s office will take over this matter and take the opportunity to attack our Fu family."

Everyone else present, whether it was the Fu family boys sitting next to Fu Hongwen, or even the eldest lady Fu Zimei, the second lady Fu Xiaolei, the third lady Fu Sixuan and the youngest fourth lady Fu Ningyi sitting opposite, all looked at her with surprised eyes.

This is the third master of the Fu family.

Is the matter really so serious that we need to invite the heads of the other major families to discuss it together?

An imperceptible look flashed across everyone's eyes, and Fu Sixuan, who was sitting among the sisters, had her eyes gleaming as she kept thinking about all the troubles this incident might cause in the future.

First, the Xu family members in Jinling City were secretly eliminated by the Yin and Yang Sect, and her cooperation with Xu Fan was immediately terminated.

However, Xu Fan now has the strength of a great monk, how can he be killed so easily? If he cannot be killed, no family can bear the revenge of a great monk.

The young children of the five major families in Jinling City cannot hide in their respective mansions all the time and dare not go out again in the future? Can they rely on the elders of the clan for personal protection?

Secondly, will Lord Qin, the governor of Jinling, take the opportunity to attack? After all, the other party is the governor sent by Shenjing to take charge of Jiangnan Road.

Qin Ruhai came to Jinling to form the Jiangnan Prefecture Army with a very clear purpose, which was to keep an eye on the major families in the south of the Yangtze River for Emperor Longxing, as well as the vassal soldiers of King Nan'an stationed in Lingnan Road.

Once he determines that the Fu family and the Yin-Yang Sect are really involved, and uses Xu Fan as a bait, even if it cannot be justified, he will at least make the Fu family transfer a lot of benefits.

Seeing the puzzled looks of his brothers and sisters, Fu Hongwen immediately explained. "This is also what the Li family in the governor's office meant. If our five major families don't communicate with each other at this time, we may be secretly used by the governor's office to do this."

thing."

"Of course, they can't find any real evidence. But based on the confession of Xu Fan, the son of the Xu family in Jiangnan, it will make things more difficult for our Fu family. The most urgent task is for me and Uncle Fu Yang to make a decision."

Neither Fu Shan nor Fu Yuchen spoke. The former narrowed his eyes slightly and gently rubbed the lid of the tea cup with his right hand, as if thinking about Fu Hongwen's suggestion. The latter's face was ashen, and he tightly grasped the armrests with both hands.

The veins on his body bulged high, and the nameless fire in his heart kept rising.

Sensing his son's anger, Fu Shan coughed slightly and spoke slowly, with a cold voice, "Xuan'er, what do you think about this matter?"

Everyone looked at each other in confusion, the third young lady of Xifu, Fu Sixuan? The elder of the Fu family actually wanted to ask a young girl about this serious matter. The strange expressions on the faces of the eldest grandson Fu Hongxin and the second eldest son Fu Hongbai became more and more obvious.

Even Fu Hongwen had a flash of surprise in his eyes when he heard Fu Shan's question, and a trace of confusion appeared on his face.

This was what my grandpa asked, and it was not easy for him to interrupt.

As for Fu Hongcai and Fu Hongxing, who had been hiding behind Fu Hongwen, the expression on the former's face did not change at all, as if Grandpa's question was normal.

The latter carefully looked at the wonderful changes in the expressions of this third sister's beautiful face with a look that was watching a show.

Fu Sixuan, who was working as an airman, trembled in her heart when she heard Fu Shan's question, and her face showed a hint of surprise and fear. She took a few deep breaths and then opened her mouth slightly. "Master, this is

One thing. I agree with Third Brother’s suggestion.”

Fu Sixuan's thoughts were racing rapidly, thinking about how to respond to Grandpa's question. Adhering to the principle of saying more, you would be more wrong, she agreed, with a look of relief on her face.

"Really? Why don't you explain why the three of them rushed out of your Lanxuan building?"

Fu Shan was obviously dissatisfied with Fu Sixuan's answer. The corner of his mouth twitched slightly, and his eyes fell on his little granddaughter again, carefully looking at the thin girl.

Fu Shan was also shocked when he saw the black mist from the Yin-Yang Gate covering the Lanxuan building. Could it be that the Yin-Yang Gate wanted to choose him, his granddaughter, to enter the gate to accept the inheritance?

As a grandfather, Fu Shan does not want his grandson to become someone else's puppet.

But when he saw the two people chasing him clearly in the black mist, Fu Shan had other thoughts in his mind. Could it be that his granddaughter was involved with the two people who escaped?

It was later learned that one of the two people was Xu Fan, the son of the Xu family, and the other, whose identity Fu Shan had guessed when he arrived at the front yard, was Lu Shiyu, the left guardian of the Yin and Yang Sect.

Guardian Zuo, sect leader, Xu family?

Various key information kept colliding in Fu Shan's mind. Although he no longer cared about family affairs and concentrated on studying and practicing, he also had a desire for control in his heart.

Otherwise, Fu Yuchen, a son who cannot practice cultivation, would not be allowed to become the head of Xiluyuan.

In addition to this legitimate son, Fu Shan also had several concubines.

"This, this." Fu Sixuan's voice was trembling as she spoke. She didn't know what information Grandpa had guessed. Finally, she gritted her teeth, mustered up the courage in her heart, and said, "Master, I don't know this either.

I am just a person who has just started practicing spiritual practice, how can I possibly sense the existence of a great monk."

Fu Shan looked at Fu Sixuan quietly with a questioning look in his eyes. From beginning to end, he never let go of his suspicion for a moment.

In the end, only two words were spoken. "Seriously?"

It was these two words that made Fu Sixuan know that she had escaped disaster for the time being. She nodded heavily, raised her head and looked into Fu Shan's cloudy eyes, her eyes as clear as water, "Seriously."

Fu Shan looked at his granddaughter's eyes, paying attention to every subtle change in expression on her face. His originally cloudy eyes became a bit cold and stern.

He leaned back slightly, leaning his back on the chair, slowly spreading his hands and placing them on the left and right armrests. His voice became warm again, making people feel like a spring breeze, and he returned to the kindness of a homely grandfather. "Xuan'er, you

Is it still the same as Hongwen’s proposal?”

Fu Sixuan's heart was pounding, but her face remained calm.

This is another test. She believes that her grandfather will not easily trust anyone, even if this person is his granddaughter.

Fu Sixuan looked at Fu Hongwen and showed a very decent smile, "The third brother has been taking care of the Fu family's West Mansion for my father. In the hearts of our brothers and sisters, he is the best third brother who considers the best for the family. His suggestions,

Naturally, it is in the best interest of our Fu family. Xuan'er thinks so too."

Fu Shan slowly rolled his eyes and looked at the other descendants in the hall, seemingly asking. Everyone who looked at him nodded in agreement, and no one had any objections.

Seeing his brothers and sisters supporting him so much, Fu Hongwen raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint and imperceptible smile.

"Yuchen, what about you? As the head of Xifu, what do you think of this matter?" Fu Shan's eyes became cloudy again, as if he had become an old man again.

Fu Yuchen slapped his hand on the armrest, obviously holding back his anger.

It was just a light pat, but it shocked everyone present and their hearts jumped. Everyone looked at their father, the nominal head of the West Mansion.

"What? Do you have any other suggestions?" Fu Shan asked softly with a friendly look on his face that he had not seen for a long time.

"I can't swallow this breath!" Fu Yuchen spat out angrily, and the dissatisfaction in his eyes was as real as it was about to burst out.

"Then what do you want to do?" Fu Shan slowly sat up straight, moved forward slightly, and looked at his legitimate son, who had not paid much attention to him these days. "You might as well tell me. If it is feasible, I will tell the ancestor."

Fu Yuchen's eyes flashed with fierceness, and he suddenly raised his head and looked at his father.

"Is it because I can't practice that you look down on me like this?"

Fu Yuchen's sudden question made Fu Shan stunned on the spot. The warm smile on his face froze, and the kind look in his eyes gradually faded. "Yuchen, what nonsense are you talking about? If I don't value you, how could I do that?"

Leave the West Mansion in your hands? Stop thinking about it!"

"Them! Them! It's all them!" Fu Yuchen's eyes were full of complaints, and he raised his hand to point to several places outside Tinghaiting. There were monks guarding those places.

"I don't believe it. A few thieves can make them so violent that the front yard keeps sending out fireworks signals? Are the people coming here too strong, or are the monks raised by our Fu family too weak?"

The more Fu Yuchen spoke, the angrier he became, his voice vibrated and his pitch rose a bit.

"Still, do they want me, the head of the Xifu family, to look bad? They do this on purpose? Just to let outsiders see. The Xu family was massacred by the Yin and Yang Sect. Will our Xifu be next?"

Listening to the sea outside the sea garden, the forest sea is like waves, making a rustling sound under the moonlight.

The Fu family monks standing everywhere lowered their heads. Everyone fell into fear when they heard Fu Yuchen's angry roar.

The head of the Xifu family is dissatisfied with them. This dissatisfaction is in front of the old head of the family and in front of all the young direct descendants of the Fu family.

"Plop~Plop~Plop~"

The young children of the Fu family knelt on the ground and apologized, "Father, this is all the child's fault. Don't be angry. It's not good for your health to be so angry."

In the hall, the young members of the Fu family knelt down to persuade him.

Outside the Haiting, the guards also knelt down to apologize. A large number of servants were seen further away. Although the servants and maids could not hear the voices in the hall, they saw everyone else kneeling down.

Everyone knelt down one by one, and the kneeling figures were like a wave, circle after circle, with Tinghaiting as the center, spreading towards the entire front yard of Xifu.

"nonsense!"

Fu Shan finally saw clearly that his son suspected that someone in the house was making him feel uncomfortable.

With a long sigh, he gently patted Fu Yuchen's shoulder with his palm, and said earnestly, "Fu Yuchen! You are the head of the Xifu family, the head of the family I have appointed. No one dares to let you lose face, your face is the face of our Fu family.

No one can offend your face, no one can."

Since his son is unable to practice, he can only hand over his secular family to him. If the opportunity comes, other people who can practice can also win a chance of immortality if they are chosen by people in the upper world.

And he, the legitimate son, can only live a hundred years in a hurry.

"Since Yu Chen thinks..." Fu Shan didn't know how to speak for a while. He also felt that Fu Hongwen's proposal was good, but he had to consider his son's face. He paused and continued.

"Since it is the Xu family who broke into our Fu family at night, let the Xu family give an explanation. I will send someone to the Xu family tomorrow. I want to see who else in the Xu family can help them at this time?"

Fu Shan turned to look at Fu Hongwen, who was kneeling on the ground, and said word by word, with a hint of acceptance in his tone that could not be refused, "Hongwen, you go visit the other family heads early tomorrow morning, and tell me that it is my wish.

It’s time for the Xu family to be removed from Jiangnan.”
