Three days later, Zhou Jun got up early in the morning.
Last night, he had discussed with Zhou Li and Zhou Luo that today Zhou Jun would directly inherit the position of head of the family.
Under Xiaolan's deliberate dressing up, Zhou Jun looked particularly energetic today. His appearance was not outstanding at first, but now he gained a certain amount of power.
After breakfast, Zhou Jun took his mother and Xiaolan to the meeting hall. Xiaolan was originally a maid and was not allowed to enter the meeting hall, but now Zhou Jun naturally has the right to take her in.
When Zhou Jun arrived, everyone in the Zhou family had already arrived. Of course, this was done on purpose. If Zhou Jun was sitting there waiting for everyone at the beginning, he would have no power at all.
Slowly entering the meeting hall, Zhou Jun's pace was just like that of Zhou Tailai in the past. Looking around, Zhou Jun slowly sat down, exactly where Zhou Tailai used to be.
Zhou Luo saw Zhou Jun arriving, then stood up from his seat, looked at Zhou Jun and said: "Three days ago, the eldest brother made it very clear. But the eldest brother has already retreated, so I will preside over it today."
After a pause, Zhou Luo continued: "The eldest brother is currently in retreat due to serious injuries, but the Zhou family cannot be left without a master. Therefore, from today on, Zhou Jun will be the new generation of Zhou family head."
After saying that, Zhou Luo took the lead in bowing to Zhou Jun and said: "Zhou Luo pays homage to the master of the family."
"I paid homage to the head of the family." Zhou Li, who was next to him, also stood up and said.
Immediately, everyone hurriedly echoed: "I pay homage to the master of the family!"
Zhou Tailai had explained it before, and among his peers, Zhou Junxiu was now the highest, so no one had any objections.
However, there are always exceptions to everything.
"I object!" An uncoordinated voice sounded, and everyone followed the voice and saw Zhou Kang saying with an arrogant expression.
"Objection? What are you objecting to!" Zhou Luo's expression changed, and he changed from his usual elegant look. Now at this time, Zhou Kang actually had internal strife, and his face turned red with anger.
Zhou Kang raised his head and said, "I object to Zhou Jun becoming the head of the Zhou family."
"Why?" Zhou Luo asked.
"Hmph!" Zhou Kang said disdainfully: "What qualifications does this Zhou Jun have to be the head of the family? He is just a bastard, and since his father has not spoken, he is not the head of the family!"
"Don't be ridiculous. Big brother said it himself in front of everyone three days ago." Zhou Luo was angry.
When Zhou Kang saw Zhou Jun, he didn't refute, but just looked at him with a smile, thinking that Zhou Jun was scared, and shouted even more frantically: "Did father say that three days ago? Why didn't I hear it?"
"You!" Seeing Zhou Kang being so reckless, Zhou Luo was so angry that he was speechless.
"In short, I haven't seen my father come out to announce that he is the head of the family, so I will definitely not recognize him as the head of the Zhou family." Zhou Kang said, the arrogance in his expression was unacceptable.
Zhou Luo immediately took out something and said coldly to Zhou Kang: "This is the jade plaque of eldest brother, and it is also a symbol of the status of the family head. Seeing this jade plaque is like meeting the family master. What else can you say, Zhou Kang?"
Seeing the jade tablet, Zhou Kang, who already looked arrogant, became even more arrogant: "What does this jade tablet represent? The jade tablet in the hands of my father is naturally a symbol of the head of the family, but now that it is in your hands, I have to wonder if it is you.
He forced his father to give up his position as head of the family."
"You!" Even though Zhou Luo was such a good-tempered person, he was so angry that he could not speak. He just pointed at Zhou Kang with an angry look on his face.
"Alas!" Zhou Jun sighed, then stood up and walked slowly towards Zhou Kang.
This Zhou Kang is really mentally retarded. Could it be that he cannot see the current situation clearly? Or is there something to rely on?
"Third brother, do you think I can't be the head of the family?" Zhou Jun asked as he walked up to Zhou Kang.
"That's right!" Zhou Kang didn't even look at him, but pretended to be disdainful and said: "It's not your turn to be the head of the family."…
"The third brother is right, and Brother Jun thinks so too." Zhou Jun paused, then continued with a smile: "Then who do you think should do it?"
Zhou Kang was stunned. He never expected that Zhou Jun would answer like this. He thought Zhou Jun might be angry, but he would not let himself speak.
"This... the position of head of the family is naturally occupied by a capable person." Zhou Kang said reluctantly.
Zhou Jun suddenly said: "Okay! Since the third brother said that the capable will live in the place, then I ask you, who is the most capable in this Zhou family?"
"This..." Zhou Kang was speechless. Although he wanted to say it was him, he couldn't say it in front of everyone.
"snort!"
With a cold snort, Zhou Jun turned his head to face everyone in the Zhou family.
"Is there anyone who thinks the same as Zhou Kang now who can come forward?"
Faced with Zhou Jun's threatening words, everyone chose to remain silent and even lowered their heads, not daring to look at Zhou Jun.
"Brother Jun is the head of the family, and that is what everyone expects. Whoever is not convinced should go through me, Zhou Feng, first." At this time, Zhou Feng stood up at the right time and said to everyone.
Everyone was still silent.
Zhou Jun nodded to Zhou Feng, and then said: "In other words, no one except Zhou Kang objects to me being the head of the family now?"
Zhou Kang looked at the silent crowd and finally no longer had the courage to stand up and object as before.
"Come here!" Zhou Jun shouted, and immediately three guards came in from outside. Zhou Jun pointed at Zhou Kang and ordered: "Get it for me."
The guard suddenly agreed, and when he was about to arrest Zhou Kang, he shouted loudly: "Why do you arrest me? Even though you are the head of the Zhou family, I, Zhou Kang, have not made any mistakes."
"Get it!" Zhou Jun continued. The three guards no longer hesitated and stepped forward to capture Zhou Kang.
"Hmph! It's not that easy if you want to capture me!" Zhou Kang's body flashed with red light, knocking the three guards away.
"Zhou Kang, are you going to rebel?" Faced with Zhou Kang's desperate counterattack, Zhou Jun did not get angry, but said calmly.
"Hmph! It's not that I, Zhou Kang, want to rebel, but that you bullied others too much!" After Zhou Kang finished speaking, he took out his weapon, which was one of the double swords that Zhou Tailai bought at the auction that day.
Holding a heavy weapon in his hand, Zhou Kang suddenly gained confidence. He swung his sword towards Zhou Jun and said, "I want to see what you, Zhou Jun, are capable of doing against me!"
"For the sake of us being brothers, don't force me to do it myself." At this time, Zhou Jun, who was at the third level of martial arts, naturally didn't care about Zhou Kang, who was at the first level of martial arts. But Zhou Kang thought that he was afraid, and immediately swung his sword to kill Zhou.
hansome.
"There are rumors within the clan that you, Zhou Jun, have reached the second level of martial arts. I want to see if it is true."
Facing Zhou Kang, who was holding a weapon and wanted to charge at him, Zhou Jun curled his lips and smiled, but he didn't make any move. A clown like Zhou Kang could kill someone with just a wave of his hand, but Zhou Jun couldn't do it unless he had to.
Jun didn't want to kill him by himself.
Just when Zhou Kang's sword was about to stab Zhou Jun, a green ribbon suddenly appeared from behind and struck Zhou Kang quickly. In the blink of an eye, before Zhou Kang could react, he was tied up tightly.
.
Looking at the sword edge only three inches away from his chest, Zhou Jun smiled. But Zhou Kang had a look of reluctance, but he could not move at all. His eyes when he looked at Zhou Jun were full of anger.
"Zhou Kang's plan to assassinate the current head of the family is truly treasonous!" A voice full of anger rang out, Zhou Yuxin held the ribbon in his hand and said with an upright expression.
Suddenly everyone looked at her in surprise. You must know that Zhou Kang is a master of the first level of martial arts! Although it was a sneak attack, Zhou Yuxin took it down with one blow. When did she have such cultivation?
Seeing Zhou Yuxin behaving like this, Zhou Jun looked at Zhou Li, who nodded and smiled at him.
"Come here! I want to enforce the Zhou family's laws!"….
Yu San walked out slowly from nowhere and stood behind Zhou Jun, standing silently.
"Third uncle, according to the laws of the Zhou family, what should I do if I intend to assassinate the head of the family?" Zhou Jun ignored Zhou Kang who was still struggling, slowly walked back to his seat, sat down, and asked Zhou Luo.
"This..." Zhou Luo was tired of Zhou Kang, but he didn't want to use family law to deal with Zhou Kang. You know, once family law comes out, there is usually death or life.
"What do you think!" Seeing Zhou Luo's hesitation, Zhou Jun couldn't help but increase his tone.
"Alas!" Zhou Luo sighed and said slowly: "The Zhou family's family law is that anyone who intends to assassinate the head of the family should have his hands and feet destroyed and let him know."
"Wait a minute!" Zhou Ding suddenly stood up, clasped his fists and said, "Although Zhou Kang has committed a heinous crime, please consider that this is his first offender, please spare his life."
At this time, Zhou Ding had to stand up. It can be said that Zhou Kang's incident had an element of his instruction.
But they were brothers from the same father and mother. Seeing that his brother was about to be executed, how could he not stand up?
Seeing Zhou Ding come out to plead for mercy, Zhou Jun frowned: "I haven't held you accountable for lax discipline yet, you have to stand up first!"
"It's Zhou Ding's lax discipline, but please spare Zhou Kang's life, head of the family." Zhou Ding immediately knelt down and begged Zhou Jun.
"No! I won't hold you accountable for your lax discipline. But this time Zhou Kang intends to assassinate the head of the family. If he is not severely punished, then our Zhou family will have no laws to speak of in the future. The Zhou family's laws are no different from yours, and there will be no deterrent effect at all!"
Zhou Jun's expression changed and he said coldly.
"Master, this is Zhou Kang's first offence, please spare his life!"
Just when Zhou Ding was about to continue to plead for mercy, Zhou Li said calmly. Zhou Jun looked at him with confusion on his face, why did the elder brother plead for Zhou Kang? You shouldn't!
"Li'er is right, please ask the head of the family to bypass him this time!" Zhou Luo quickly agreed. He himself didn't want Zhou Kang to die. After all, he was his own family. No matter what mistakes he made, Zhou Luo didn't want him to die.
Zhou Jun hesitated for a moment and then said: "Since the eldest brother and the third uncle have interceded for you, then I will bypass you for the time being and punish you to face the wall for half a year. If it happens again, you will definitely be severely punished."
After hearing that Zhou Jun finally relented, Zhou Ding was overjoyed and said gratefully: "Thank you so much, Master! Thank you so much, Master!"
"go!"
Looking at Zhou Kang who was tied up like a rice dumpling, Zhou Ding looked at Zhou Yuxin with pleading eyes. Zhou Yuxin smiled disdainfully and then took the ribbon back.
At this time, Zhou Kang no longer dared to have any dissatisfaction, and immediately followed Zhou Ding out silently, going to face the wall and think about his mistakes.
After the two of them walked out, everyone in the Zhou family did not dare to breathe. They just looked at Zhou Jun blankly to see if he had any other requests or orders.
Seeing everyone's behavior, Zhou Jun knew that his intimidation was very successful this time. If Zhou Jun did not use thunderous means to intimidate everyone today, then he, Zhou Jun, would not have any intimidation power in the Zhou family in the future.
"Now that my father is seriously injured and in retreat, my Zhou family is in a critical situation. No one can relax. If anyone dares to do anything to harm the Zhou family in the future, then don't blame me, Zhou Jun, for being ruthless!"
After Zhou Jun finished speaking, the aura of the third level of martial arts was suddenly released. People in the hall felt an unstoppable force coming towards them, making it difficult to breathe.
In an instant, there were only three people in the hall who could still keep their expressions on their faces, namely Zhou Li, Zhou Luo and Yu San. The others were all red-faced and sweating profusely.
"Okay, everyone get out!"
Zhou Jun calmed down his momentum, waved his hand and said calmly. Everyone immediately walked out the door as if they had been granted amnesty.
