In addition, her husband also got a carriage, so she escaped unscathed.
But she would not consider these.
All she considered was that the Shentu family's huge fortune would have nothing to do with her man from now on!
How can this be tolerated?!
As the legitimate daughter of the second branch of the Sima family's patriarch, she married into the Shentu family with her sights set on the position of wife of the Shentu family's patriarch!
It is very likely that her man will take over the position of head of the Shentu family from the head of the Shentu family.
Of course, the head of the Shentu family has his own legitimate son, and it is impossible for him to pass the position of head of the family to the son of his brother from the second house.
But she wouldn't take this kind of thing to heart.
In her heart, her husband had the same inheritance rights as the legitimate son of the head of the Shentu family.
When the head of the Sima family heard that the Shentu family was "harmed" by the tenant slaves, his face changed and he couldn't help rubbing the two iron walnuts in his palms.
There hasn't been much reaction yet though.
But when he heard that the treasure left by the Shentu family's true god was likely to be in danger, he suddenly stood up and said in a stern voice: "This is impossible!"
"The treasures left by the True God cannot be approached by anyone other than the three great family masters!"
"If you get close, you'll die!"
"Did you see clearly whether the Shentu family's treasures fell into the hands of those tenants?!"
The Sima aunt hesitated, then looked up, only to be glared at by the Sima patriarch's bell-like eyes. She panicked and blurted out, "At that time, my niece only saw heavenly fire spewing from the Phoenix Saint's mouth, burning towards our Shentu patriarch's courtyard. They must be trying to burn down the secret room and get the treasure!"
Although no one knows where the secret rooms of these three families store their treasures, people from these three families basically know where they are, and they must be in the master's yard.
Now that the courtyard of the head of the Shentu family has been burned by "fire from heaven", it is understandable that they think this way.
Unexpectedly, the Sima family's patriarch burst out laughing when he heard this, waved his hand, and said, "I understand. You can go down."
"Now that you're back, take a few days off. I'll contact the Helian family's Patriarch and go to the royal city to meet the eldest son of the Shentu family who serves as a guard at the Black Tower. We'll discuss the future then."
The aunt of the Sima family felt a pang in her heart and couldn't help but look up at the head of her natal family.
The eldest son of the Shentu family who serves as the Black Iron Guard in the royal city is the eldest legitimate son of the head of the Shentu family!
This kind of person is born to inherit the family business!
But now that the head of the Shentu family is dead, why do we still need to find this person to inherit the position of the head of the Shentu family?
Can't she let her man do it?
The eldest son of the Shentu family married a wife who was not from the Sima family or the Helian family, but the daughter of an official in the royal city.
In terms of family background and wealth, how could she be compared with the daughters of the three great divinely favored families?!
Is the head of the family thinking something wrong?
The head of the Sima family also felt the gaze of his niece from the second branch of the family.
He knew what she was thinking, but now was the time to threaten the very existence of the three great families for a few petty gains?!
Her man just has some special abilities.
How could he compare to the eldest son who was sent to the royal city to serve as a guard of the Black Tower since he was a teenager?!
No matter how reluctant the young lady from the Sima family was, she didn't dare to talk back to the head of her natal family.
She went downstairs in a depressed mood.
In the main hall of the Sima family's main house, there were only him and the chief steward.
The chief steward said worriedly, "Master, are you really not going to visit the Shentu family?"
The Sima family patriarch stood up, frowning, and walked around the main hall several times with his hands behind his back before saying, "What's going on with that phoenix?"
"Can you really spit fire from the sky?"
The chief steward said, "I didn't see it myself, so it's hard to say."
"But those who escaped from the Shentu family all said so."
"Also, I've had them interrogated separately, and their descriptions are consistent. They don't seem to be lying."
"If you lie about something like this, you'll be exposed in a minute."
"I have already sent someone to the Shentu family to gather information, and they will be back soon."
"Then we'll know what's going on."
The head of the Sima family nodded.
The chief steward breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Master, aren't you worried that the Shentu family's treasure from the True God will be snatched away by those tenants?"
This is what he is most worried about.
However, the Sima family's patriarch waved his hand nonchalantly and said, "They can't take it away."
The chief steward blinked. "...Ah? Patriarch Shentu has such a good relationship with you, but he actually told you something like this?"
The Sima family's patriarch glanced at him and said coldly, "Don't ask about things that you shouldn't ask about."
The chief steward was startled and lowered his head quickly: "I know I was wrong. I was just scared..."
"You know, my family's fortune and life are all tied to the Sima family. I absolutely don't want what happened to the Shentu family to happen to the Sima family."
The Sima family patriarch sneered and said, "Actually, I'm not afraid of you knowing."
"The treasures our three families obtained from the True God are all in the secret room."
“And that secret room was built under the blessing of the true God.”
"The entire chamber is seamless; even the door is part of the chamber."
“You don’t need a key to enter, you need a unique password.”
"And this password is not fixed. It is different every time."
"Only the heads of our three families can master this dynamic password."
"So, even if the Shentu family is burned to the ground by that phoenix, the treasure will not be burned..."
"Except for the patriarchs of our three great families favored by the gods, no one else can possess the treasure! Hahahaha!"
The Sima family patriarch laughed sickly and said, "Wait a moment, I'll go in and get something."
Then go back to your bedroom.
In the main hall, the steward had a gloomy expression on his face, lowered his head, and waited silently in the main hall.
