After accompanying Song Zining into the living room and introducing each other, Qianye was shocked to discover that the old man who had been left out for a long time and drank several pots of tea into plain water was actually an elder of the Song clan.
Compared with other powerful families, the elders of the Song Dynasty have much greater authority. Especially now that Mrs. An Guo cannot leave the seclusion and the power of the clan leader is insufficient, any member of the Elders Council actually has the influence to control the affairs of a clan.
This elder named Song Qisi was from the generation of Duke An Guo. In terms of seniority, he was still above the clan leader Song Zhongnian, and a full three generations higher than Song Zining. Therefore, when meeting him, Song Zining had to treat him respectfully.
He was called 'Great Uncle'. Even the two nephews and nephews brought by Song Qisi were two generations older than Song Zining, and they were both direct descendants of the same family.
But Qianye felt inexplicably weird when he saw the scene in front of him, and he even couldn't help but want to laugh.
Song Zining was perfectly polite and respectful in person, but in reality he left his great-uncle here and ran to the study to paint ink landscapes. If Qianye hadn't come back just in time to see the progress of the painting, the old man would not have known what to do.
When to wait, and during the entire waiting period, except for a few pots of tea, there was no other hospitality.
This etiquette is a bit interesting.
Qianye roughly guessed what Song Zining was thinking and didn't say anything. He just found a seat to sit down and quietly watched what would happen.
"Zi Ning! It's not that my uncle told you that you did something wrong! How can a young man forget his ancestors and be so ungrateful?" The old man opened his mouth and scolded him head-on.
Song Qisi was at least over eighty years old. Considering his generation and age, it didn't seem too much to reprimand Song Zining for relying on his old age. However, Qianye, who was watching, frowned slightly. He could see that Song Qisi's force power was not more than twelve.
A third-level person who has lived to such an old age and still only has this little strength is really mediocre considering the Song clan's background and resources.
After all, the Song clan is one of the four clans, and it is also a family that has been passed down for thousands of years. Even if the bloodline power is not as good as that of the Zhang and Zhao clans who are co-existing with the country, it is by no means worse than ordinary high-ranking families. For a talented disciple like Song Zining, it will be passed down from generation to generation.
Yes. But once you have the talent, whether it can grow is another matter.
After taking part in the ten-year exam of the Song Dynasty, Qianye had a clear understanding of the disciples of the Song Dynasty. Except for a few people such as Song Zining, most of the disciples of the Song Dynasty were pampered and lacked the desire to work hard and strive for success. With the help of secret knowledge,
With their combat skills and massive resources, their level is still at a reasonable level, but very few of them have actual combat power that exceeds their level, which is actually ineffective for the powerful sects.
With Song Qisi's strength, Qianye felt that he could easily take him down, but he really didn't understand where he had the confidence to reprimand Song Zining like this? Could it be that he was really relying on the Song Clan to gain prestige? Now, how could the Song Clan have any prestige at all?
Qianye's expression was strange, and Song Qisi and others noticed it immediately. It was easy to see, and Qianye didn't feel the need to hide it.
But the person standing next to Song Qisi suddenly became angry and said angrily: "The elders of the Song family are lecturing, but there is no place for you, a mere soldier, to wink at you! Palm!"
Before he finished speaking, the man actually slapped Qianye on the face!
Not only Qianye was stunned at this time, but Song Zining was also stunned. This person was a direct descendant of the family and an eleventh-level general. In terms of seniority, he was two full generations higher than Song Zining. According to the strict hierarchy within the family, he was scolded and scolded.
It is a common thing to beat the younger generation and make them vassal and subordinate.
However, this is not the Song Dynasty.
Hearing a snap, the person who flew out was of course the one who made the move, and more than a dozen teeth spurted out from his mouth. Qianye's slap was quite a slap! Then he stretched out his hand and pressed it softly, and the person flew halfway, suddenly
Like a fly, he was slapped on the floor by an invisible hand. A mouthful of blood spurted out and he fainted.
Qianye's hand was pressed in the air, and he was stunned, as if he couldn't believe his achievements. He turned to look at Song Zining, and asked doubtfully: "This person is so weak, is it really the battle of your Song clan?"
Will?"
Song Zining covered his face with a fan and couldn't bear to look directly at him, and sighed: "It's not that he is too weak, it's you! It's just a slap in the face, do you need to use that trick of yours?"
Qianye suddenly realized and said, "Ah! It's so easy to use."
He has always relied on fighting to support fighting, and most of his stable state after each promotion was spent in fighting. This time after receiving the inheritance of Taixuan Military Attack Jue, it is no exception. Now he has integrated into his fighting instinct, and can act immediately when he thinks.
When being attacked, before you even think about it, your instinct has already slapped you away.
However, Qianye frowned again immediately. He still felt that this man was too weak, to the point where he couldn't bear to look directly at him. Not only was he incomparable to the generals of the same level from the Nangong family, he was also a decent knight in the dark kingdom. In terms of combat power,
Maybe they are better than him.
Song Qisi and another nephew stayed there. They had never experienced such a scene before. They were shocked and angry, and they finally came to their senses. Song Qisi stood up and shouted: "Young man with a yellow mouth, how dare you come on top of me, the Song clan?"
Go wild! I flipped the palm of my hand."
Before Song Qisi could finish his sentence, a folding fan suddenly opened in front of him, blocking his view. So all he could see was a picture of ladies on a spring outing on the fan. Song Qisi's face suddenly turned red and he stared at the many ladies.
one of them.
This painting of a lady's spring outing is extremely exquisite. The young girls move in a lively manner, with their clothes flying, as if they have come to life. That's fine. One of the key points is that the girls wear very little, revealing a lot of spring. How can this be?
Outing in spring is like taking a bath. The second key point is that one of the girls has a hibiscus-like face and is so delicate that she looks exactly like a great-great-granddaughter of Song Qisi.
Song Qisi understood now that his most beloved great-great-granddaughter probably had some unclear relationship with Song Zining. He originally hoped to send her to the imperial palace to find a future, but he knew it when he saw this picture.
All the hard work was in vain.
"You, you" Song Qisi pointed at Song Zining, so angry that he could not speak.
Song Zining put away the folding fan, pointed to Qianye with a half-smile, and said: "Great uncle, I just introduced this Lord Qianye as the deputy commander of the Dark Fire Independent Division, but you don't know yet, he is the Black Current
The real owner of the city. My business here is just to help him."
Song Qisi was doubtful when he heard the words, and his eyes flickered a little.
The Song clan did not know Song Zining's outside industry situation before. He first knew that he had investments in the Heiliu City war zone because of Ye Mulan's case. And the fact that Song Zining owned the rights and interests in Heiliu City was the reason why he had an open conflict with the Nangong family.
can be determined.
Of course, Lord Song had also inquired before coming here that the current commander of the Blackstream City Expeditionary Force dispatch division was Lord Zhao Zhao Yuying. But in the empire, for the convenience of the boss, it was very common for an industry to have the name of a child of a certain family.
Generally speaking, neither Zhao Yuying nor Zhao Clan appeared from the beginning to the end of the Black Stream Battle, which shows that this is an insignificant detail.
Of course Song Qisi also had the same idea, and some clues could not help but appear on his face.
Song Zining glanced at him and then said with a smile: "Great uncle, Lord Qianye not long ago personally killed the leader of the Dark Army, the first-class Viscount Luther, a demon descendant. This act is a bit ignorant, so don't take it to heart."
Song Qisi's cheeks twitched, and he didn't know whether he was crying or laughing. He already understood what Song Zining meant. He had even beheaded the first-class viscount of a demon descendant. How could killing such an old man like him be just a matter of a few moves? If you think about it further, the empire has billions of people.
Most of the warriors whose combat prowess far exceeds their level are children of powerful families. What is the background of Qianye?
Song Qisi had already raised one of his hands halfway, ready to teach Qianye a lesson by turning his palm over, but he turned his hand over and taught him not to dare.
However, he was also an old man. His expression changed and he shouted to the other person who had brought him: "Why are you still standing there? Drag your cousin out quickly! We will punish him slowly when we get back!"
The man was startled and did not dare to disobey, so he quickly carried his unconscious cousin out.
When Song Qisi turned around again, his face was filled with a bright smile, and he said to Qianye: "As expected, the young hero and our Zi Ning are talented and good friends."
Qianye was amazed by how quickly he changed his face. The two sat down again and started talking again. This time Song Qisi was much more honest. He knew that Song Zining and Qianye had no respect for his identity, so he did not dare to rely on his old man to show off his skills and directly explained
Got the intention.
Song Qisi's trip was not a whim, but indeed represented the Song Clan Presbyterian Council. The resolution of the Presbyterian Council mainly had two meanings. One was to severely punish Song Zining for unauthorizedly recording the military achievements of the Black Stream Battle in the name of the Zhao Clan.
Reprimand and admonish, and impose corresponding punishments.
Qianye's expression was strange again. He heard correctly. The Song clan elders council had indeed taken punishment measures against Song Zining. The first step was to demote Song Zining's successor by three places, take back all family affairs, deduct one year from his annual salary, and freeze Song Zining.
All private property related to the Song Dynasty will be returned after the punishment period is over.
The deduction of annual salary can be ignored, and the heir ranking downgrade is not a big deal. Song Zining is not here anyway. But the frozen assets are not a small amount, including a mineral and two large factories in the territory of the Song clan.
Fortunately, Song Zining's Ningyuan Heavy Industry is not very dependent on the Song Clan. Not long ago, a large part of its production base was moved to Yongye Continent. Otherwise, looking at this, it would not only be assets related to the Song Clan, but it would also be on the bright side.
In all likelihood, your foundation will be withheld.
Qianye looked at his friend's face that had not changed, but he clearly felt the heavy haze after the calm. This former classmate of Huangquan had never been a good person who was easy to bully, but blood and kinship always bound him, even if he was as free and easy as Song Zining
, it was also such a difficult journey.
Song Zining seemed to feel Qianye's gaze, raised his head and smiled at him, then shook his head slightly.
Qianye understood what he meant. The Song family's move had already crossed Song Zining's bottom line. He was by no means a person who was waiting to be killed. He just let Song Qisi finish his words first and see where the Song family's bottom line was.
Song Qisi may have been sitting in a high position for a long time, so he didn't seem to notice the difference in the expressions of the two people, and he was still talking.
The second meaning of the Song Clan Presbyterian Council is to formally establish the Black Current War Zone where the Song Clan fought bloody battles, with Song Zining continuing to lead the secret fire operations. All military merits received in the Black Current War Zone must be recorded in the Song Clan's name and must not be handed over to outsiders privately.
.In addition, the three nearby battle teams of the Song clan will also be incorporated together. The sons of the Song clan who were originally in charge of the three battle teams will assist Song Zining and direct military affairs.
"Assistant?" After hearing this, Song Zining asked with a sneer.
