However, Zhang Jingtong's branch had long coveted the position of head of the family. Some time ago, because his son was determined to be a waste by a group of astrologers, the other branches of the Zhang family were ready to make a move, and Zhang Jingtong's branch was particularly active, so Zhang Chihua didn't bother to care about his life or death.
As long as you don't care about Zhang Jingtong's life or death, you don't have to worry about the document anymore.
There are so many aristocratic families in the capital, and every family has a few unfilial descendants. If they could seize someone's family property with just a piece of paper, these aristocratic families would have been destroyed countless times.
"Hehe, Young Master Zhang, it's so easy for you to say that. Why don't you take a good look at whose seal is on this document?" He Qingwei said with a sneer.
If he hadn't said it, Zhang Chihua wouldn't have noticed it. But after he said it, Zhang Chihua noticed that the document was clearly stamped with the seal of the head of the family.
Zhang Chihua was secretly surprised and looked at Zhang Moyang in confusion.
"The various branches have been in turmoil recently, and I have no intention of taking care of clan affairs. Zhang Chengdong wanted to use the seal, so I gave it to him. I didn't expect that his precious grandson would use it here." Zhang Moyang said with a wry smile.
After hearing his father's words, Zhang Chihua felt somewhat helpless. He had witnessed all the ups and downs of the Zhang family in recent days. It wasn't that his father didn't care about family affairs, but that the various branches of the family were busy fighting for power and profit, and Zhang Mo was powerless to do anything.
"This useless guy." Zhang Chihua cursed inwardly. If Zhang Jingtong was here, he would have wanted to slap him to death, but unfortunately, the guy saw that the situation was not good and ran away without a trace, leaving a mess for them to clean up.
"Old Master Zhang, Young Master Zhang, this document is signed and sealed by Zhang Jingtong, and it has the seal of the master of the family as proof. It's better for you to give me the land deed as soon as possible, otherwise if things get out of hand, it will be embarrassing for everyone." He Qingwei chuckled.
Zhang Moyang and his son remained silent. Although they knew that Zhang Jingtong had been plotted against, the document had the seal of the head of the family, so He Qingwei was in the right anyway, and they could not deny it even if they wanted to.
But the Zhang family is not like the eight great families, and there are not many profitable industries in the family. If they lose this mine, they will definitely be struggling in the future. They are really unwilling to just give it to He Qingwei.
"He Qingwei, everyone knows what tricks you are playing. Not only do you cheat others out of millions of silver, but you even want to get your hands on other people's family property. This is simply too much." Zhang Moyang and his son remained silent, but Mu Zexian and others could not stand it anymore and said indignantly.
"As a descendant of one of the eight great families, he actually resorted to such shameful tricks. He's not afraid of losing the reputation of his ancestors if the news gets out." Mu Zeran also said.
As the head of the family, Zhang Moyang treated them with courtesy, which made these little playboys flattered and increased their favor for the Zhang family. In addition, as fellow playboys in the capital, they and He Qingwei and others had disliked each other since childhood. When they saw that He Qingwei actually used the broken document to frame the Zhang family, they all felt a sense of common hatred for the enemy.
"I was wondering who it was. It turned out to be Mu Zexian, the eldest son of the Mu family. How come he has nothing to do today and comes to meddle in other people's business at the Zhang family?" He Qingwei looked at Mu Zexian and others with disdain and said sarcastically.
If it were in the past, he might have had some concerns about Mu Zexian and others, but now he had the document signed and sealed by the Zhang family members, and Zhang Moyang's seal as evidence. He was completely right, so he didn't take Mu Zexian and his gang seriously.
Not to mention that they are just a few playboys from the Mu family, even if this matter is brought to the presence of the emperor, they will not be in the wrong at all.
"He Qingwei, what did you say?" Mu Zexian's face turned dark and he stared at He Qingwei angrily.
"What's wrong? Did I say something wrong? Does this have anything to do with you? I'm collecting my debt, it's none of your business. If you want to meddle in other people's business, go somewhere else. Why do you meddle in our affairs? Others are afraid of your Mu family, but we are not." He Qingwei rolled his eyes and said disapprovingly.
Although Mu Zexian was furious, he was left speechless by He Qingwei's words.
Although they acted arrogantly on weekdays, that was only when they were facing ordinary family members. They had no reason to be arrogant when facing people like He Qingwei.
They are all descendants of the eight great families, are equally dissolute, equally uneducated, and equally unpopular in the main family. To put it bluntly, they are just a group of useless children from aristocratic families, and none of them is much better than the other.
It would be fine if He Qingwei and others were not in the right in this matter, but it turns out that others are in the right, so even if they want to meddle in other people's business, they have no reason to do so.
"Mr. Mu, I appreciate your kindness. This is my Zhang family's family affair, so let us handle it ourselves." Zhang Moyang also knew the dilemma of Mu Zexian and others, and said with a wry smile.
In fact, he was in the same dilemma. The document was written in black and white right in front of him, and the seal of the head of the family on it was genuine. Even though he knew that Zhang Jingtong was cheated by He Qingwei and his gang, their Zhang family had nowhere to seek justice. Apart from handing over the land deed to them, they had no other choice.
Alas, it's really one thing after another. It's so hard to make each family settle down, how come something like this happens again! Zhang Moyang and Zhang Chihua, father and son, sighed secretly.
"This matter has nothing to do with them, but it happens to have something to do with me. I don't know if I have the qualifications to meddle in this matter." Just when Zhang Moyang and his son were ready to accept their fate, and Mu Zexian and others were full of righteous indignation but could do nothing, Mu Hanyan's voice sounded in their ears.
"Mu...Mu Hanyan! Why is it you again?" Looking at Mu Hanyan who walked out from behind Zhang Moyang, He Qingwei swallowed hard and said with a gloomy face.
Because Zhang Moyang was tall, he didn't notice Mu Hanyan standing behind him at first. Now that he saw her, he felt a headache.
"So Young Master Mu is here too, what a coincidence." When Song Zhe saw Mu Hanyan, he gave a dry laugh and his scalp felt numb.
Chang Sun Feihong and the others looked at each other, their heads as heavy as a bucket.
When they first saw Mu Hanyan, they almost subconsciously wanted to put their hands behind their backs and turn around to run away, but when they thought of the fine iron mine, they were really unwilling to leave like this, so they had to bite the bullet and stay.
"Yes, what a coincidence! I didn't expect to see you all again so soon. It's really fate." Mu Hanyan still had a harmless smile on her face and looked very friendly.
"Mr. Mu, you just said that this matter has something to do with you. I would like to ask, what exactly is the relationship?" He Qingwei asked bravely.
"The mine you mentioned just now is actually mine. What's the connection?" Mu Hanyan glanced at He Qingwei and said lightly.
