Looking at the Zhou family's meeting hall, I usually come here once a month to attend the Zhou family meeting, but today I came twice in one day. It's true that my strength has changed.
, the identities are naturally different.
"You're here."
Zhou Jun was shocked. Hearing Zhou Tailai's tone, he seemed to be waiting for him.
"The treacherous son! He actually openly killed his own brother!"
The teacup in Zhou Tailai's hand had been crushed into pieces and was fluttering in the wind. Zhou Tailai's face also showed the first anger Zhou Jun had ever seen.
"Father is wrong. It was Zhou Heng who wanted to kill me. If I hadn't still had some strength, I might have been the one who died right now."
After listening to Zhou Jun's words, Zhou Tailai fell silent. At this time, Zhou Jun's whole body's skills had been gathered in his hands, ready to welcome Zhou Tailai's attack at any time.
"Alas!" Zhou Tailai sighed: "Put away your power! I know you have reached the second level of martial arts, but you are still far from my opponent."
Zhou Jun was shocked when he heard this, hesitated for a moment, and then withdrew his spiritual power.
"I really can't figure out what kind of life has shaped your indifferent character. Was I really wrong in the past? How many people in my Zhou family have the same character as you now?"
This is the first time Zhou Jun has seen Zhou Tailai openly express his feelings. Zhou Tailai usually has a cold and serious look.
"At the very least, Zhou Heng is one!" Zhou Jun said slowly.
Sighing again, Zhou Tailai said: "I know what Heng'er did. I'm not an old fool. I know that the wounds on Heng'er's body that day were caused by a dagger."
Zhou Jun's eyes lit up, it turned out that Zhou Tailai knew all this, so why...
"You must want to ask me why I didn't punish him?" Zhou Tailai saw the expression on Zhou Jun's face and naturally knew what Zhou Jun was thinking, so he asked immediately.
"First, I thought you were dead at the time. Second, no one has any evidence that Heng'er killed you. Third, brothers killing each other is the most serious matter in the Zhou family's family law. If I execute
If the family law is violated, then Heng'er will undoubtedly die!"
"You don't understand a father's heart. If it were you who came back alive, I would make the same choice."
Zhou Jun was startled and looked at Zhou Tailai in disbelief.
"I have already lost a son, and I don't want to lose another one! So, I won't kill you this time!"
"I said, he wanted to kill me, and I had no choice but to fight back," Zhou Jun said.
"That's it!" Zhou Tailai sighed more times today than usual in the past year.
"This morning, I saw that you had returned safely and that your cultivation had reached the realm of martial arts. I wanted to make it up to you. However, you let me see your decisive killing side. At that time, I was shocked. My Zhou family lacked
That’s the kind of person you are. However, I never expected that you would be so cruel to your own people!”
Zhou Jun listened quietly without saying a word.
"From today on, I will make you one of the candidates for the head of the family. I know that they will definitely not be able to defeat you, but I hope you will be more cautious in the future and don't do anything too harsh. After all, they are your brothers."
Zhou Jun nodded. Although he didn't think so in his heart, it was a father's request and he agreed.
"You go out first!" Zhou Tailai waved, "I want to be alone for a while!"
Zhou Jun heard this and walked out...
"Yu San!" Zhou Tailai shouted.
"I'm here, old slave." The butler responded.
Zhou Tailai said slowly, with a kind of majesty in his voice: "You should understand what I mean. Go and deal with it and clean up all the traces! In addition, inform all the gentlemen and ladies to come to the conference hall tonight. I
There is something important to announce.”….
"Yes!" Yu San agreed without any expression on his face.
Zhou Jun rushed all the way to his residence and happened to bump into the butler Yu San who was walking leisurely.
"Butler Yu." Zhou Jun bowed respectfully to Yu San. The impression this butler gave to Zhou Jun was absolutely unfathomable. You know, the most hidden things are often the most terrifying.
Yu San looked at Zhou Jun, and there seemed to be a hint of deep meaning in his eyes, but it passed by briefly.
"Master Jun, I have asked me to inform all the young masters that I am going to the council hall for a banquet tonight and that I have something important to announce."
Zhou Jun was walking on the way to the Zhou family meeting hall. If nothing unexpected happened this time, he would definitely be on the list of heirs to the head of the Zhou family.
"Brother Jun! You..." Zhou Jun was more absorbed in thinking for a while, but he didn't notice that Zhou Feng had walked in front of him at some point.
Zhou Feng said with a face of surprise: "Brother Jun! It's great that you are back safely. That guy Zhou Heng also said..."
"Haha!" Zhou Jun laughed, "No matter what Zhou Heng says, he will never say it again in the future."
"I won't say it again? What do you mean?" Zhou Feng asked doubtfully.
"It's no fun, let's go in!"
Zhou Jun walked in and found two people sitting next to him. At this time, there were only Zhou Jun and Zhou Feng in the hall.
"It seems that we are here early." Zhou Jun said with a smile.
"Brother Jun, do you know what father means by calling everyone here this time?"
It should be the announcement of Zhou Heng's death and the announcement of the heir to the family head! Although he already knew the answer in his heart, Zhou Jun said with a puzzled look on his face: "Does Seventh Brother know about this?"
Zhou Feng showed an expression as if this was indeed the case, and then continued: "Actually, I don't know either. My father never said any reason when he summoned everyone. He just knew that he asked us to come, so we came. But this time, according to my guess,
Maybe for the heir of the family head."
"What's the meaning?"
"You don't know this? Now everyone has used the body tempering pill, and I have only reached the late stage of the warrior. The others are similar. Only Zhou Ding, Zhou Kang, and Zhou Lian successfully condensed the spiritual strings and entered by luck.
The realm of the first level of martial arts. And that guy Zhou Heng got some shitty luck and actually entered the realm of martial arts."
"So, who are the heirs to the family head?"
"Of course they are people who have entered the first level of martial arts. Zhou Ding and Zhou Kang, as legitimate sons, are now in the first level of martial arts, so they are naturally the heirs of the family head. And Zhou Lian, although he is a concubine, he is more talented.
, his future achievements will definitely be higher than those of the first two, so it should be the same. As for Zhou Heng, that character, even if the spirit string is condensed, it is probably the end, and the family head will definitely not have him as the heir."
Zhou Feng said angrily. Zhou Jun estimated that Zhou Heng must be among the original heirs of the family head, but Zhou Feng was unwilling to admit it.
In the Zhou family, the heir of the family head is a prerequisite for recognizing the head of the family. Only after becoming the heir of the family head can it be possible to achieve the position of the head of the family. Those sons who are not designated as the heirs of the family head and are over eighteen years old are directly sent
Go down and manage the business.
Zhou Feng said: "How's it going, Brother Jun! Have you decided who to attach yourself to?"
"Attachment?" Zhou Jun asked in surprise. This time he really didn't know.
"I just heard what my mother said today. Once the heir to the head of the family is determined, there will be a very fierce fight between the heirs. So whoever can win more supporters at this time will have a better chance of becoming the head of the family.
The bigger it gets. Therefore, the heirs of several family heads will definitely win over us. Have you decided who to join?"
"Haha! Let me see what you mean, Brother Qi. Whoever you support, I will support. After all, I am a commoner. I have no rights and no strength, so it doesn't matter to me."….
"This..." Zhou Feng hesitated for a moment and said: "Okay! Then we two brothers will bet together. If the bet is successful, we will win. If the bet fails, then we will wait to be assigned to idle positions in the future! Let's all be in peace.
.”
As Zhou and Jun talked, the number of people in his hall gradually increased, and all the children of the Zhou family showed up, but Zhou Li was the only one who didn't arrive.
As everyone arrived, Zhou Tailai also appeared. At this moment, Zhou Tailai no longer had the helplessness he felt when talking to Zhou Jun, and was replaced by a dignity accumulated from his old high position.
Zhou Tailai glanced around, frowned and said, "Why hasn't Zhou Li arrived yet?"
"Sir, the eldest young master went to Lincheng this morning. There were some minor problems with the business there." Yu San replied, his tone extremely calm.
"That's it!" Zhou Tailai relaxed his brows and said, "Then let's start!"
Zhou Tailai nodded to Zhou Luo. Zhou Luo understood and stood up, and then said: "Zhou Heng, the fourth son of the Zhou family, attacked the eleventh son of the Zhou family this morning. As a last resort, Zhou Jun fought back. However, the fourth wife Zhou Li
He led his servants to attack Zhou Jun, but Zhou Jun counterattacked and killed them all."
Zhou Luo said lightly, with no hint of joy or sadness in his tone.
"Ah!" But all the children below shouted in surprise.
Moreover, Zhou Luozhi announced it at Zhou Tailai's signal, which means that Zhou Tailai acquiesced to this matter.
"Although Zhou Heng was the first to provoke this time, Zhou Jun killed his brother regardless of brotherhood, which is really an extremely bad thing. In view of Zhou Jun's special situation, Zhou Jun's crime will be detained first. If he commits it again in the future, he will be detained.
There will definitely be no mercy!”
Zhou Luo said, and there was another discussion below.
What does "detain first" mean? How can such a thing be detained first? If he still commits the crime again, do you still think Zhou Jun will kill a few legitimate sons in the future?
Everyone looked at Zhou Jun with complicated expressions, but the instigator stood up with a smile and bowed: "Yes! Jun'er knows his mistake!"
