Zhong Xingyin came to Lao Zhi's house without prior notice. He also brought Shiji She with him, and he was so eager that he ignored etiquette. What else could he have come to do? He must have come to repay a favor.
!
A large group of warriors from the Zhonghang clan and the Fan clan followed them into the mansion, but Zhishen, who had a weak personality, did not stop them.
Because Zhishen was present, some of the Zhi family's retainers did not dare to shout past Zhishen, but watched helplessly as so many outsiders came in aggressively.
If anyone else saw it, they would probably think that the old Zhi family was about to be bloodbathed, right?
"Hold on!" Zhiyao's voice was loud, but because of her young age, her voice sounded childish.
He quickly came to the front of Shi Jishe and Zhong Xingyin, stretched out his arms and stood in a "big" posture, stopped the aggressive group of people, and said: "You are waiting here to attack my Zhi family?"
Zhongxing Yin was about to pull Zhiyao away, but when he heard the question, he showed a stunned expression, and his outstretched hand froze.
Yes, that's right, Zhisong is so low-key that he has almost no dignity, Zhishen is really weak, but the Zhi family is one of the best in the Jin Dynasty, especially Zhisong is the current "Yuanrong", how could someone dare to enter the house so aggressively!
Zhiyao was young and not very tall, and her fierce-looking appearance stunned a group of people.
At this moment, Zhishen felt very ashamed. Even though his little heart jumped rapidly because of fear, he still held the hilt of the sword and came to Zhi Yao's side.
The guards of Lao Zhi's family felt that they had been humiliated before. Seeing that their master finally stood up to stop them, they immediately assumed the posture of protecting their master, and some of them loudly called for more companions to come over.
"This..." Shi Jishe looked at the Zhishi warrior who looked like he was about to fight, and then at Zhishen whose expression was about to become distorted. Finally, his eyes stayed on Zhiyao, and said: "Zhishi has you, I don't know how lucky it is."
It’s a disaster.”
They are "Qing"! They are also the heads of two major families in the Jin Kingdom. Even if they break into other people's homes, they are still not just anyone who dares to block the way.
No, Zhishen wouldn’t dare.
How old is Zhiyao? He is so brave, and the Zhi family's retainers and warriors seem to love him very much.
In addition, the connotation of "Shi Ji She" is just because the Zhao family is now the dominant one. After Zhishuo, Zhao Yang will be the "Yuan Rong". Think about what those Zhao family members who serve as "Yuan Rong" have done, how brave they are.
The great Zhiyao may not have a good end.
Zhong Xingyin came back to his senses, looked at Zhiyao with some confusion, and said to his guards: "You guys, please step back."
Looking back, the Nakako clan at least had the same sect as the Zhi clan, so there was some reason to bring a large number of warriors into the Zhi clan's mansion.
The Fan family and the Zhi family had a marriage, but it was just that if they didn't recognize the marriage, there was less affection between them a generation apart.
Shijishe also asked all the warriors to retreat.
"Yao is rude, uncles, please forgive me." Zhi Yao reached her goal and moved to the left side of Zhishen.
Zhishen reached out and touched the back of Zhiyao's head, without looking at Zhong Xingyin and Shi Jishe, and led the way.
The Zhi clan warriors who had just been at war with each other naturally stayed with those who had the duty of guarding them, while the rest of the summoned warriors retreated.
Zhishen, who was in the reception hall, already knew what happened from his retainers. He should have at least gone out to greet him, but he kept sitting and waiting for Zhishen to welcome Zhong Xingyin and Shijishe, but he still sat in his original position and did not move.
"Yao, come and sit next to Zu." Zhisong greeted Zhiyao with a smile.
There was no greeting, no return of courtesy to sit down, and no eye contact after the meeting, which made Zhong Xingyin and Shi Jishe feel embarrassed.
"Uncle, nephew is rude. The situation is urgent, uncle, please don't blame me." Zhong Xingyin still asked people, but then his momentum was exhausted, so he could only apologize first and then talk about the matter.
In today's era, no matter how rich and powerful you are, there are many rules and regulations. In addition, the productivity has not yet reached the age of pursuing pleasure. Although Zhi's living room does not have many decorations, it does not look like it.
It is magnificent, with at most some bronze lamps in the shape of animals.
There are no tables, chairs, screens, etc., just futons and tables.
The floor is made of round logs arranged side by side, and then a layer of soil is spread to ensure smoothness. Then there is a blanket made of burlap, and finally a layer of straw mat is covered. Big families also have these things to pay attention to.
, in the homes of small families and ordinary common people, they simply have dirt floors.
Why not cut into wooden boards? The main reason is that cutting wooden boards is very laborious now, and using wooden boards as the floor will look extremely luxurious.
In the Spring and Autumn Period, the main seat and the guest seat were distinguished in any occasion. Naturally, Zhizhuo sat in a specially elevated main seat, with an aisle directly in front of her, and futons and tables placed on the left and right sides.
Currently, there is no saying that the left or right side is respected. Seniority ranking is based on the order of seats.
Jishen sat on the left seat.
Zhong Xingyin and Shi Jishe sat on the right.
They all turned slightly sideways to face Zhi Yao, but all three of them had their eyes on Zhi Yao.
In just one scene, where Zhizong asked Zhiyao to sit in the main seat with him, the meaning expressed was too obvious.
"Is Zhiyao the future leader of the Zhi clan?" Zhong Xingyin and Shi Jishe thought so.
I don't blame them for thinking that way, and they didn't look to see who was coming, but Zhizong still did it.
Of course, who between Zhixiao and Zhiyao will be the future leader of the Zhi family depends on how Zhishen chooses. The only thing Zhishen can decide is to choose Zhishen to take over her class.
Even if Zhizhuo chooses Zhiyao, when his legs are kicked out and he loses the breath, it is Zhishen's turn to choose Zhixiao. The Spring and Autumn Period does not pay attention to the ancestral precepts. How can Zhizhuo lift the coffin board and jump out?
When the guests came, they naturally needed to be entertained. The servants brought the utensils for making soup and the tableware was indispensable. However, the awkward atmosphere in the living room remained for about a quarter of an hour.
During this period, both Zhong Xingyin and Shi Jishe spoke, but Zhi Shuang ignored them.
"That's it!" Zhongxing Yin stood up in a hurry. He didn't know whether he was indignant or angry, and said: "The kindness of my ancestor (Zhongxing Wu) has long been forgotten by 'Yuan Rong'? So, Yin Lai is wrong today!"
Zhizong still looked at Zhong Xingyin without making a sound.
Zhong Xingyin said again: "The Zhao family bullies Handan Zhao, but you remain silent; the Zhao family attacks me, and the Fan family, and you do nothing; the next day, the Zhao family attacks Zhi, who will help you?"
Zhizhuo could speak and said: "Without me, do you know what your Majesty wants to do? Your Majesty orders me to go out. If I don't send troops, I will be disobedient, and it will be the limit of my family."
"Absurd! You are truly an ungrateful person, and even more so a courageous person!" Zhong Xingyin didn't raise his finger and pointed at Zhizhu's nose, but he scolded her directly.
"That's all, that's all. The Zhi family is really..." Shi Jishe stood up, greeted Zhong Xingyin and left.
Zhong Xingyin snorted angrily at Zhisong, walked a few steps, stopped to look at Zhisong again, turned around again and left.
The scene was very unpleasant.
Especially when someone scolded me in my own home.
However, Zhizhuo just sighed lowly, with a look of defeat and loss on his face.
