Meanwhile, inside the Zhao Family Ancestral Hall!
"Boss, you should at least give us your opinion!"
"Now that bitch Hu Jing has openly killed Zhao Xun, if we let her continue down this path, will we even have a chance to survive?!"
After Zhao He, the second son of the Zhao family, finished speaking, Zhao Jie, the third son, continued.
"How do you want to do it!"
"Are you leading your men to fight Hu Jing and Gao Ren?"
"Can you beat them?"
"Who are the people under their command? And who are the people under your command?"
When Zhao He saw his younger brother undermining him like this, his expression immediately became a little embarrassed.
"Third brother, what do you mean!"
"We're in dire straits and you're still going against me!"
The third brother's face immediately showed displeasure when he saw him throw such a huge accusation at him right away.
"Depend on!"
"Am I going against you?!"
"I'm just telling the truth,"
"Gao Ren's men are all soldiers from the north. Compared to them, your men are nothing but a rabble!"
"you......"
Zhao He was interrupted by the sound of the door opening before he could finish speaking.
Displeased, Zhao He glared at the younger member of the Zhao family, and before he could even vent his anger, he unleashed it on him.
"What is it? Speak!"
Faced with pressure from Zhao He, the younger generation of the Zhao family swallowed hard and said...
"Reporting to Second Uncle,"
"News has just arrived: a coup has occurred within the Su family!"
"Su Tian killed his own father, Su Ming, and seized power, becoming the head of the Su family!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao He's face showed a hint of displeasure.
"Is this news enough to make you barge in without knocking?!"
Seeing that Zhao He's anger hadn't subsided, he spoke again.
"The first thing Su Tian did after taking the position of family head was to purge all the elders of the Su family!"
"Su Tian is currently leading his men to ransack homes, house by house..."
Upon hearing this, the anger on Zhao He's face was replaced by a hint of shock...
He couldn't understand where Su Tian, this rich second-generation, got the confidence to do things so ruthlessly!
Just as Zhao He was puzzled, Zhao Yi, the eldest son of the Zhao family, who was sitting in the main seat, waved for the younger generation to leave.
As the door closed, Zhao Yi finally spoke.
"Did you notice anything?"
Zhao He and Zhao Jie have lived for so many years, they're not doing this for nothing, do you think they can't see through this little trick!
"This is Gao Ren making an example of someone!"
After Zhao He finished speaking, Zhao Yi nodded and said,
"If Gao Ren and Hu Jing hadn't interfered with this coup in the Su family, even if they had ten times the courage, they wouldn't have put that idiot Su Tian in power!"
Zhao Yi rarely swears! After all, as the de facto head of the Zhao family,
He commands an army of twenty to thirty thousand men, and he wouldn't get angry over trivial matters!
But the thing Su Tian did...
It was truly something that made him unable to resist; anyone with a brain would know that.
The first thing to do after taking power is to win over various factions in order to consolidate one's position!
But Su Tian, that idiot, did the first thing after taking power: he killed the person who put him in power and then openly ransacked their home!
Grass!
Aren't you giving Su Muyan, who's outside, a reason to purge the court of corrupt officials?
If Su Muyan uses this excuse to get rid of you now, will anyone in the Su family still stop her?
Will some people worry that if Su Muyan takes the position of head of the Su family, the Su family will change its surname to Cheng Gao?
Taking a deep breath and calming himself, Zhao Yi continued,
"Second brother, third brother!"
"We only have two choices now!"
"First, we must stand against Gao Ren and Hu Jing to ensure that the Zhao family will always bear the Zhao surname!"
Second, preserve the Zhao family bloodline!
"I'd like to hear your choices!"
Upon hearing Zhao Yi hand over the choice to them, Zhao He and Zhao Jie showed no sign of happiness whatsoever.
Instead, his face was filled with worry!
After all, if they didn't make the right choice, they would become sinners against the Zhao family!
If the Zhao family were to disappear, how would they ever face their ancestors again?
Just as the two were hesitating... suddenly, the door was pushed open again.
The same young member of the Zhao family walked in, and he looked even more anxious than before.
"Clan leader, second uncle, third uncle,"
"Su Tian is dead!"
"Su Muyan has become the new head of the Su family!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao He swallowed back the words of his curse.
Explain in more detail!
"When Su Tianzheng was walking back with the money he had obtained from the confiscation of his property,"
"Suddenly, we were ambushed by Su Muyan on the way!"
"After Su Tian's death, Su Muyan was elected as the head of the family by the remaining members of the Su family!"
After he finished speaking, Zhao Yi waved for him to leave again.
"Gao Ren really does things meticulously..."
Hearing their elder brother's感慨 (sentiments/reflections), Zhao He and Zhao Jie couldn't help but ask,
"Big brother, what have you thought of!"
Seeing the confusion on their faces, Zhao Yi said calmly,
"The two coups by the Su family lasted no more than three hours in total, precisely to prevent outsiders from interfering!"
"And one more thing, do you know why it was the Su family that had the coup, and not my Zhao family!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao He and Zhao Jie remained silent for a moment before speaking in unison,
