Brothers are fighting each other and killing each other. No family can afford such a reputation.
Changsun Jing, however, had a lot of free time. He was sure that Changsun Yan would definitely die and there was no way he could escape from this danger. He smiled and said: "If you don't want others to know, you have to do it yourself. But I don't want to argue with my brother at this time. You still want to
Think about how you should get through this crisis."
Changsun Yan was so angry that his eyes turned red and his pupils were bloodshot. He shouted angrily: "If you hadn't instigated Lao Wu to do such stupid things, how could I have fallen into such a dangerous situation?"
"Ah!"
Changsun Jing sneered and said: "The matter in the Western Regions was planned by my brother. In the end, it failed, so the responsibility will naturally be borne by my brother. Why, when death is imminent, I still want to drag my little brother to be buried with you, can't I?"
When he said these words, he was already breaking up. The secretive brotherhood and brotherhood in the past were gone at this moment.
All the elders and brothers in the study were silent.
As if it has nothing to do with you...
Changsun Yan laughed angrily, nodded repeatedly, ignored Chairman Sun Jing, and asked several clan elders: "Everyone, the Changsun family has been passed down for hundreds of years, and the descendants are flourishing and glorious. It is precisely because of the close blood and unity in the clan.
Agreed. Now that the family is facing a crisis, but there are people who are cheating and plotting against each other, what do you think?"
All the clan elders were silent, but Changsun Yan kept staring at him intensely. After a while, one clan elder coughed and said: "What Silang said is true. The reason why the Changsun family is today's glory is all due to the unity of the children.
Everyone contributes. Now that the family is in crisis, the prince has already spoken out and vowed to give Fang Jun an explanation... At this time, I am afraid someone needs to stand up and take the blame on his own, so that the family will not be dragged down. "
Even if someone agreed: "This is a great thing to say. It is precisely because of the prosperity of the family that we have our glory. Personal interests must always be subordinated to the interests of the family. At this critical moment, someone should step forward. Everyone in the family will be aware of this."
Remember his kindness and take care of his descendants."
"Hahaha, hahaha!"
Changsun Yan could no longer suppress the grief and anger in his heart and laughed miserably.
These people have obviously planned secretly to push themselves out to take responsibility for their crimes and protect their prosperity and wealth.
But what can he do?
Personal interests must give way to the interests of the family. In the same way, how can the individual's will go against the will of the family?
When everyone wanted to sacrifice him to save everyone, and in the name of family interests, no matter how dissatisfied he was, he couldn't resist at all.
It's a pity that I made a plan, thinking that I could succeed as the head of the family naturally, but I didn't expect that people are not as good as God, and the plan that was supposed to be foolproof went wrong. Fang Jun was not dead, and the right guard was not destroyed, and the backlash
Powerful to destroy heaven and earth.
In the end, it will end in an extremely miserable end. All ambitions and grand projects will be reduced to smoke in the blink of an eye...
He staggered to his feet, took a deep look at Changsun Jing, and with hatred like a surging river, he gritted his teeth and said: "I am a descendant of the Changsun family. I should shoulder my own responsibilities, and I will die without regrets. It's just that you and I are brothers.
He is hiding such despicable and vicious thoughts in the field, and he is really worthy of death!"
How could Changsun Jing be afraid of threats from a dying man?
He said calmly: "This matter was done by the fifth brother, and the younger brother did not know about it. The fourth brother is willing to shoulder the responsibility, and one person is responsible for the work. I deeply admire it. Don't worry, after you leave, the sisters-in-law and the younger brother will take good care of you.
These nephews should also be treated as if they were their own children, so that’s peace of mind.”
Changsun Yan sneered.
care?
Of course he will take care of it. The eldest son's family has such a tradition. When the eldest son Dan died suddenly, the second brother Sun Huan has been taking good care of the sixth brother's wives and concubines. Haha, he took care of them meticulously and considerately...
But even if he is still angry, what can he do?
You can't feed all your wives and concubines a mouthful of poisonous wine before you die, and bury yourself in it, right?
He gritted his teeth, with hatred in his heart, and said word by word: "When I came back from my dream at midnight, I entrusted Qilang with my dream for my brother. Thank you for being so generous!"
Changsun Jing disagreed and said calmly: "No need to be polite, this is what I should do."
"snort!"
Changsun Yan was so angry that he just waved his sleeves and left.
Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps sounded from outside the door. Immediately, a servant said outside the door: "Silang, someone from the East Palace has come to summon Silang to see you!"
There was a sudden silence in the study room, and everyone looked at each other in shock.
East Palace call?
It stands to reason that the prince now wants to skin and dismantle Zhang Sunyan. He is so angry even when he hears the name. How can he be willing to see him with his own eyes? All he needs to do is to be ruthless and ignore the deterioration of the situation, and order the three judicial departments to open a case for investigation and collect personal and material evidence.
With both being present, Changsun Yan can be put to death easily.
Where is the need to call for an audience?
unless……
Changsun Jing was panic-stricken and looked ugly. Could it be that the prince changed his mind under pressure?
Changsun Yan had just reached this point. His already desperate heart was beating loudly, and his hands were trembling uncontrollably.
He looked around at everyone in the study, took a deep breath, and without speaking, strode to the door, opened it, and walked out.
It was so quiet in the study room that you could hear a needle drop.
For a long time, the clan elder couldn't help but worry: "Is there something unexpected about this matter?"
Others were speechless.
Next to him, an old man with white hair and beard stood up tremblingly, shook his head, and sighed: "We are forcing you so much today, and I am afraid that Shiro's heart will be full of hatred. If he dies, that's it. At worst, we will suffer a lot in the future.
I have taken care of my sons and brought them up to be mature and flourishing. But if Shiro does not die today... alas, we will never have peace in the future."
All the elders of the clan sighed.
Not only will there be no peace anymore? With Chang Sun Yan's ruthless heart, he is afraid that he will be killed by evil hands if he is not careful...
Everyone glanced at Changsun Jing.
Who could see Changsun Wen's stupid behavior and still not understand who was behind it? If Changsun Yan really escaped this disaster, others might be able to slow down and relax, but Changsun Jing will definitely bear the brunt.
, facing Zhang Sunyan’s crazy revenge.
Changsun Jing's face was terrifyingly gloomy, and his heart kept beating.
Mother!
Should we really let Changsun Yan escape this disaster?
It will be troublesome in the future...
*****
When Zhang Sunyan arrived at Xingqing Palace, the sky had already turned gloomy, and snowflakes were falling. The exquisite and beautiful Xingqing Palace was already lit with lanterns. A string of lanterns was hung at the entrance of the palace. The snowflakes were fluttering and swaying in the orange light, which was particularly soft and beautiful.
Changsun Yan's heart was already in his throat, and sweat was dripping from his palms. When the chamberlain in front of the door came in, he stood outside the palace gate in a dignified manner. In the cold wind and snow, he didn't show any sign of emotion.
I didn't notice the slightest bit of coldness.
After a long while, the chamberlain came over and bowed to invite eldest grandson Yan to enter.
Changsun Yan followed the chamberlain into the palace gate. He lowered his head and did not look sideways. He only stared at the square brick corridor under his feet that had been cleaned on one side. It took him a long time to reach a palace.
This palace is not gorgeous and spacious. It is hidden among bamboo rockeries at night. Under the halo of lanterns, the columns and eaves are beautiful and exquisite, just like a palace in the sky.
When the chamberlain entered, he turned around in a moment and said, "Your Highness, please invite the eldest grandson to come in and have an audience."
Changsun Yan nodded, straightened his clothes, and then climbed the stone steps outside the cloister to the palace entrance, took off his shoes and walked into the palace.
There was a burning earth dragon in the hall, which was very warm. There was no one in the faint smell of sandalwood.
Changsun Yan was just astonished when the chamberlain beside him had already turned left into a door and hurriedly followed him.
After passing the door, there is a study room.
Huge sandalwood bookshelves are placed on the walls on both sides, and the upper shelves are filled with all kinds of books. Other than that, there are not many gorgeous furnishings.
A large book desk is placed next to the window. The window has obviously been renovated. The original wooden windows on the wall have been replaced by huge floor-to-ceiling glass windows. The exquisite courtyard outside the window can be seen, and the falling snow falls under the orange light.
, very beautiful.
Li Chengqian was dressed in regular clothes, sitting behind the writing desk and writing furiously.
The chamberlain pushed out sideways, and Chang Sun Yan stepped forward and bowed his head to the ground: "The guilty minister, Chang Sun Yan, has an audience with His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Then, before Li Chengqian could speak, he knelt on the ground, bowed his head and confessed his crime.
At this point, he was at the end of his rope and had no other choice. His only hope was that Li Chengqian could change his mind and take back his life.
Therefore, he understood that at this moment, he must confess his guilt quickly, his attitude must be sincere, and he must show that he is willing to be a slave and obey orders.
However, no response was received.
Changsun Yan was kneeling on the ground, his heart was racing up and down, his palms were dripping with sweat, he was worried about gains and losses, and felt at a loss.
After a long while, a faint voice came to my ears: "Changsun Yan, what are you guilty of?"
