Chapter 210: Smallpox in Lanwa Town (Part 4)
Yu Zhongdou knew something about pretending to be sick, but he didn't expect that the mountain god would use a "king bomb" at the first move. Now, the whole Lanwa Town has gone crazy.
The Chen family, the Lan family, and the enemy family were all unable to sit still. Several large families gathered in the Chen family's meeting room. The atmosphere was tense and seemed like it would explode at any moment.
Lan Xian, the head of the Lan family, was furious. He slammed the table so hard that the teacups on the table shook a few times. "How can you be so willing to sacrifice the eldest son? You can sacrifice him if you want to. I can't. Yuyan has been raised in my hands since she was a child and has never suffered such an injustice."
Young Master Chen, who was called, shrank his neck and stayed obediently in the corner.
Oh, oh, oh... He doesn't want to do that either!
How did he know that Quan Qinghan would get smallpox?
Chen Hongsheng, the head of the Chen family, glared at his son and said, "My dear relative, you misunderstood. I have more than one son, but this son is my eldest son. How could I use him as bait? Who knows who wants to harm my family and deliberately let the girl get smallpox. Otherwise, she would have died sooner or later, but she got it as soon as my son fell in love with her."
As he spoke, he glanced at someone meaningfully.
Qiu Wende, the owner of Qiongjiu Winery, snorted coldly: "Master Chen, don't say anything careless. Our winery has always acted uprightly, how could we do such a despicable thing? I think, maybe your Chen family is too domineering in daily life and offended someone, so they deliberately used this incident to punish you."
These words were like salt sprinkled on Chen Hongsheng's wounds, making his face even uglier.
Lin Hui, the head of the Lin family, had been silent the whole time, but suddenly spoke up at this moment, "In my opinion, let's not rush to blame each other. Quan Qinghan is just a little girl, how capable can she be? There must be a bigger force behind her. Our big families have been in Lanwa Town for many years and have made many enemies. We must act carefully and not fall into other people's traps."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone fell into deep thought.
But after a while, Lan Xian couldn't sit still anymore. He pointed at Qiu Wende's nose and scolded, "Stop pretending to be a good guy here! I heard that your winery has been in close contact with Niba Eighteen Village recently. Are you colluding with the people of Niba Eighteen Village to deliberately mess with my Chen family?"
When Qiu Wende heard this, he was immediately furious: "Chen boy, you are slandering me! When did my winery have close dealings with Niba Eighteen Village? Our winery is a businessman, isn't it normal for us to go to Niba Eighteen Village to collect things? Don't just smear and frame the murderer when you can't find him. If you keep talking nonsense, don't blame me, the Lan family, for being rude!"
For a moment, the two sides were on the verge of fighting.
Lin Hui stood up quickly and stopped them with both hands, "Don't be impulsive! Now is not the time for internal strife. Let's first find out who is behind this. Otherwise, our families will suffer."
Everyone finally calmed down, but each other's eyes were still full of suspicion and hostility.
The meeting was open for a long time, but there was no effect at all.
Lan Xian left angrily, and Chen Hongsheng couldn't stop her. Lin Hui was trying to be a good person nearby, but he was still scolded.
Someone advised Lin Hui to stop worrying about it, saying that Lan Xian was an impulsive guy and he couldn't stop him.
Besides, this matter was originally caused by the Chen family, so it is normal for Lan Xian to feel angry and want to vent it.
By the way, he also asked Lin Hui: "Who do you think is behind this?"
Lin Hui: "How would I know that? If I had this ability, I would be the number one family in Lanwa Town."
"That's true."
…
In fact, when Lin Hui went to the Lan family to meet Lan Xian before dark, Lan Xian had already fallen into Qiu Wende's trap.
Qiu Wende secretly bribed a servant of the Lan family, put drugs in Lan Xian's tea, imprisoned him in the secret room of the winery while he was unconscious, and carefully disguised himself as Lan Xian.
That night, a fire broke out in Chen's house.
The flames lit up half the sky red. Chen Hongsheng looked at the burning Chen family mansion with his eyes almost spitting fire.
"Second brother, you must take the Chen family's elite troops to guard the important roads. We must not let these thieves succeed!"
He roared and swung the sword in his hand, and then rushed towards the masked man in the lead like a tiger.
He wants to stop this most powerful man and buy time for his family.
He believed that as long as he blocked the masked man's attack, his second brother and the others would be able to protect the Chen family.
Seeing Chen Hongsheng coming at him aggressively, the masked man remained calm and held the long sword in his hand horizontally, steadily blocking Chen Hongsheng's fierce attack.
The two men fought back and forth, but after just a few moves, Chen Hongsheng identified the flaws in his opponent's moves.
"Lan Xian! It's you!"
His eyes widened, his face full of disbelief, and his voice was filled with anger and shock.
"Lan Xian" did not say anything, but just snorted coldly, turned his steps, and chopped towards Chen Hongsheng again with the long sword in his hand, with a move even more brutal than before.
"Why are you doing this? We are relatives!" Chen Hongsheng asked loudly while struggling to resist.
Could it be that he has to treat his son like this just because of the mistakes he made? !
Chen Hongsheng repeatedly explained that his son had been "plotted" by someone and he didn't want to make the wrong target of revenge.
However, "Lan Xian" seemed not to hear anything and just kept attacking, with every move being fatal.
Just when the two were fighting hard, Chen Hongsheng suddenly felt a chill coming from behind.
He thought to himself that something was wrong and wanted to dodge, but it was too late.
With a "puff", a long sword pierced through his chest from his back, and blood instantly dyed his clothes red.
Chen Hongsheng slowly turned his head and saw his second brother Chen Jingtian.
"Why?"
His voice was weak, but full of confusion and anger.
Chen Jingtian showed a twisted smile on his face: "Brother, for so many years, I have been doing all the dirty work, but you are the head of the family, and you can get whatever you want. Why? I, Chen Jingtian, also want to be the head of the family!"
Chen Hongsheng then realized that all this was a conspiracy between his second brother and "Lan Xian".
But……
But how could he not know how capable his second brother was?
If his second brother really had this ability, he would definitely entrust him with an important task. But because his second brother was arrogant and lacked the ability to do things, he had to entrust some unimportant things to him.
In the end, no matter how well his second brother performs, he will clean up the mess for him and give a portion of the results to him. What else does he want?
Chen Hongsheng opened his mouth and wanted to explain something, but he was unable to do so and his body slowly fell down.
Chen Jingtian watched Chen Hongsheng fall down, and an indescribable joy surged in his heart.
He wiped the blood of Chen Hongsheng that had splattered on his face, turned around and walked towards "Lan Xian", with a flattering smile on his face: "Brother Lan, this is great, our plan has succeeded, from now on this Lanwa Town will be ours!"
