Shangguan Boshan quickly rushed back to the secret meeting room at home.
As soon as he entered, Shangguan Jinming looked at him and asked, "What did Cui Tianzhi say?"
"Ancestor, Cui Tianzhi came to apologize sincerely."
Shangguan Boshan said with a smile on his face.
"Seriously?" Several clan elders couldn't believe it and asked.
"Really, I can see it clearly. Cui Tianzhi now looks terrified, as if he has done something wrong. It seems that this matter is definitely not the Holy One's instruction."
Shangguan Boshan explained hurriedly.
When the clan elders heard this, they immediately felt relieved.
"Hahaha, that's good, that's good."
"Yes, as long as it is not authorized by the Holy Spirit, then the initiative is on our side."
"What a false alarm. I don't know what kind of madness Cui Tianzhi committed. He even dared to kill members of our Shangguan family."
"..."
The situation changed, and all the clan elders smiled.
Now there is no need to rush to transfer the young members of the clan, and there is no need to worry about anything happening to the family.
On the first seat, Shangguan Jinming was also completely relieved.
As long as the emperor is not behind this matter, everything will be easy to handle.
What's more, maybe you can take advantage of the opportunity to gain some more benefits.
Shangguan Jinming glanced at the elders of the clan, and then said: "We should seize the time to discuss how to go to the Holy Lord to complain."
As soon as he finished speaking, the elders of the clan immediately started talking about it.
"Although the final analysis of this matter is that our Shangguan family was at fault first, Cui Tiantian and Xia Houjun killed both of us. This matter cannot be washed away no matter what."
"Yes, we will use this point to make a fuss and insist that the government kills meritorious officials indiscriminately."
"Yes, Bo Ming and Bo Shi have both made military exploits. Even if the government wants to deal with them, it will not be dealt with like this. There is no reason for the Holy Emperor to be partial this time."
"We have to ask the Holy Father to use some money from the treasury to compensate us."
"Then Cui Tianzhi must also receive the punishment he deserves, otherwise other big families will think that our Shangguan family is incompetent."
"Cui Tianzhi may not be killed, but Xia Houjun must die."
"..."
The clan elders spoke to each other and soon came to a preliminary conclusion.
Later, Shangguan Jinming made some guiding remarks, and the elders of the clans continued to discuss.
Finally, after repeated discussions, we finally came up with a relatively appropriate plan.
Shangguan Jinming announced: "Boshan and I will go into the palace to meet with the Holy Majesty. You guys will wait at home."
After saying that, Shangguan Jinming took Shangguan Boshan out of the secret meeting room and flew into the sky towards the palace of Dajin City.
This matter required his ancestor, who had made great military exploits for the Kingdom of Jin, to come forward. This made it even more obvious that the Shangguan family had suffered a big loss this time.
Because from an outsider's perspective, the government oppressed the hero's family and killed the hero's children in the street, forcing the old hero to go to the emperor in person to seek justice.
Regardless of whether others believe it or not, at least it has occupied a high point in public opinion, and many things will become easier to operate by then.
When Shangguan Jinming took Shangguan Boshan all the way to the palace, things about Shangguan's family and the government had already spread throughout Dajin City.
This big news immediately caused a stir.
At this moment, the entire Dajin City, from the dignitaries to the common people, are discussing this matter.
Everyone wants to know how this matter will develop next.
Also, when Cui Tianzhi killed Shangguan’s family members in the street, was it his own intention or the emperor’s authorization?
For a time, many people came out of their homes, either to the streets or into teahouses and restaurants, and gathered together to talk about the matter.
Inside a teahouse.
"The latest news, the latest news, the ancestor of the Shangguan family has taken the current head of the family to file a petition."
"Really or not? Isn't this what the emperor meant?"
"It doesn't seem to be the case now, because Mr. Fu Yin just went to Shangguan's house to apologize."
"What? Mr. Fu Yin came to plead guilty in person? Since Mr. Fu Yin went to plead guilty, why did he kill Shangguan Boming in the street before?"
"Who knows this? Only Mr. Fu Yin knows it. How can ordinary people like us understand it?"
"There is definitely something wrong with this matter. It is impossible for Mr. Fu Yin to kill the Shangguan family in the street without anyone's support. I bet that Mr. Fu Yin definitely has someone to rely on."
"I still rely on it. I was at the scene at the time and could see clearly that Mr. Fu Yin definitely lost his mind at that time, and so did Mr. Xiahou. Anyway, they were not normal at that time."
"You are just kidding me. How can someone as big as Mr. Fuyin do things without seriousness? Tell me, what are the benefits of offending the Shangguan family?"
"Didn't I say that Mr. Fu Yin had a problem at that time?"
"..."
Everyone in the teahouse expressed their opinions. Everyone had their own unique opinions, and no one could convince anyone.
There is no way, after all, this thing is weird from beginning to end.
"Tell me, after the ancestor of the Shangguan family filed a complaint against the emperor, how will the Holy Emperor handle this matter?"
"I must deal with Lord Fu Yin and Lord Xiahou. Do you need to say that? No matter who is at fault first, you can't kill people in the street no matter what, especially since the two people who died had military exploits."
"This is your opinion. I don't think so. Let me say that from beginning to end, this matter was the Holy One's way of dealing with the Shangguan family. After all, the Shangguan family has great merit and is not good for the unification of the country."
"You are talking nonsense. If the Holy One really wants to deal with the Shangguan family, wouldn't the ancestor of the Shangguan family know about it? Is the ancestor of the Shangguan family not as smart as you?"
"That is, the ancestor of the Shangguan family knew that the Holy Emperor was going to take action against their family, yet he foolishly went to file a complaint. He really didn't want to die quickly enough."
"That's true. Maybe the ancestor of the Shangguan family committed a crime in Hutu? Or he had to go even though he knew he was going to die."
"Yes, you have to go even if you don't go at this time. If you don't go, you may die faster. If you go, you may still have room for change."
"Stop talking so much, let's just watch the show honestly. This is a great show that is rare to see in a hundred years."
"Yes, who would have thought that an official as big as Mr. Fu Yin would actually beat people to death in the street."
"Master Fu Yin really wants to kill someone. There are countless ways. There is no need to choose the stupidest way."
"Anyway, the next show is very exciting. I want to see if what happens next can surprise everyone again."
"..."
Everyone kept talking, but they couldn't remember anything in their hearts.
I can't wait for someone to come and convey the latest progress of the matter right away.
It's a pity that the communication in this world is not developed and the transmission of information is very slow, so everyone can only wait patiently.
…
Inside the palace.
When Shangguan Boshan and Shangguan Jinming rushed to the palace, Cui Tianzhi was also waiting here.
He was just waiting for Shangguan Jinming and wanted to talk to Shangguan Jinming in person and ask for Shangguan Jinming's forgiveness.
After all, Shangguan Jinming is the real head of the Shangguan family.
As long as he nods, things will be easy to handle.
"Ancestor Shangguan, Ancestor Shangguan!"
Cui Tianzhi hurriedly came to Shangguan Jinming and Shangguan Boshan and stopped them.
Shangguan Jinming originally wanted to ignore him and planned to go directly to the emperor.
But then I thought about it, it was necessary to have a few words with Cui Tianzhi and confirm his attitude again.
Thinking of this, Shangguan Jin Mingdan said calmly: "What does Cui Fuyin want from me?"
"Ancestor Shangguan, Xia Houjun, I, and others were suddenly possessed by evil spirits at that time, so we did some unwise things, but those were not our original intentions."
