Chapter 635: Infighting in the Duanmu Family
In the depths of the ancient jungle.
Hundreds of miles to the north of Qingmu City, there is a majestic peak of a thousand feet.
The mansion of the Duanmu family is located on the top of the peak, hidden by the vast clouds.
On the top of the mountain with a radius of tens of miles, there are more than a dozen simple and majestic palaces, and rows of exquisite and elegant houses.
The Qingmu Palace facing the square on the top of the mountain is the main palace and the meeting hall of the Duanmu family.
Whenever Duanmuhuang discusses important matters with the elders and deacons, they will hold a meeting in the main hall of the Cyanwood Palace.
At this time, it was early in the morning, and there were more than a dozen experts from the Duanmu family in the Qingmu Great Hall, discussing a major matter.
Sitting on the first throne in the main hall was a thin middle-aged man with a goatee, who was the Patriarch Duanmu Huang.
Duanmuhuang remained silent, but his face was a little gloomy, and there was a hint of anger between his brows.
There are twelve strong men standing on both sides of the main hall, they are the elders and persons in charge of the Duanmu family.
In addition, there is a handsome young man with red lips and white teeth, kneeling in the middle of the hall.
This young master is Duanmu Feiyu.
The atmosphere in the main hall was somewhat depressing, just like the hazy sky outside the hall.
Several elders and those in charge were silent on the surface, but secretly they were discussing something in a low voice with their spiritual sense.
At this time, Duanmu Huang picked up a notice with thousands of characters written on it from the table in front of him, waved his hand and flicked it at Duanmu Feiyu.
"Shua!"
The light yellow rice paper fell in front of Duanmu Feiyu, laying it squarely on the ground, the scarlet writing on the paper was clear.
Duanmuhuang frowned, slapped the table angrily, and shouted in a deep voice: "You bastard, look at the stupid things you did!
Overnight, tens of thousands of notices appeared out of thin air in the city of Zhongzhou, plastered all over the streets and alleys.
Now all the people in the city are talking about you, and all forces are gloating about your misfortune. I don't know how many people laugh at our Duanmu family.
You rebel! Are you going to piss me off? ! "
Duanmu Feiyu was scolded bloody, but he was full of grievances, and tried his best to explain: "Father! How can you believe this kind of method of making rumors and slandering people out of thin air?
Our Duanmu family tree is very popular, and I don't know how many opponents and enemies have coveted it.
Unexpectedly, the opponent this time is so despicable, and even resorted to such a despicable method that ordinary people would use..."
Before he could finish speaking, Duanmuhuang shouted again in a deep voice: "Shut up! You bastard, don't you know what's wrong even now?
Your elder brother was killed by Ji Tianxing, and his body is still alive! The big revenge has not been reported, but you are spending time and drinking outside, what's the matter? "
Duanmu Feiyu quickly argued: "Father! My eldest brother was killed, and I also hate that little bastard Ji Tianxing very much, and wished I could cut him into pieces.
But didn't you entrust this matter to several elders? My strength is low, and I can't help, so I can only concentrate on running the business, so I don't have to drink and talk business with people..."
Duanmuhuang frowned, not going into this matter with him, and asked: "Then how do you explain the fact that you enriched yourself and embezzled the family property?"
Of course Duanmu Feiyu refused to admit it, and evaded it completely.
"Father, as the second young master of the Duanmu family, how could I do something like guarding myself and embezzling my own property?
These are all fabricated by those despicable people, they just want to deliberately slander me and slander the reputation of the Duanmu family, how can you believe that..."
Before Duanmu Feiyu could finish speaking, a clear and majestic voice suddenly came from the entrance of the main hall.
"shut up!"
Hearing this voice suddenly, Duanmuhuang and his son, the elders and those in charge all turned their heads to look at the entrance of the main hall.
I saw two slim figures stepping through the gate and stepping into the hall.
The first person to enter the hall was a woman in a brocade dress and a jade hairpin and gold crown.
Her face seemed to be only in her thirties, with a good face, a graceful and luxurious temperament, and a majesty of being in a high position for a long time.
She is Duanmu Yulong's biological mother, Duanmuhuang's eldest wife.
Following behind the eldest lady was a tall, fit, green-robed woman with a strong aura.
She possesses the strength of the Tianyuan realm, and is the lady's close female official and confidant attendant.
The eldest lady walked into the hall gracefully, her delicately made-up face was full of sorrow and pain.
She walked to the main hall and stood still, bowed to Duanmu Huang who was at the top, and said in a sad tone: "Patriarch, Fei Yu has gone too far this time, it is too chilling!
Yulong's bones were not yet cold, he didn't want to avenge his eldest brother, but clapped his hands and applauded, more rejoicing than our enemies.
As a child of the Duanmu family, he didn't serve the family loyally, but even wantonly embezzled the family property. This is simply lawless!
In the past, you were kind and tolerant to him.
But this time, you can't pamper him no matter what! "
The eldest lady's face was frosty, her voice was cold and majestic, quite like the matriarch of an aristocratic family.
Several elders and those in charge had different thoughts.
After listening to Da Furen's words, someone immediately nodded in agreement, asking Duanmu Huang to punish Duanmu Feiyu severely, so as to serve as a warning to everyone else.
Duanmuhuang suddenly had a headache, frowned, and said in a deep voice: "Madam, I am discussing this matter with all the elders, it is inconvenient for you to participate here, please step back immediately!"
Duanmu Feiyu was also full of anger, the veins on his forehead throbbed violently, wishing he could strangle the lady to death.
However, in front of Duanmuhuang and the other elders, he never dared to show any anger or hatred.
He could only pray silently in his heart, hoping that his father would drive the eldest lady away so that she would not add fuel to the trouble here.
However, why is the eldest lady willing to leave?
She looked at Duanmu Huang with disappointment, and said in a sad tone: "Patriarch, do you really want to protect Duanmu Feiyu?
Sure enough, as rumored, after Yulong passed away, you will have to find another heir, and my mistress will become dispensable...
That being the case, why don't you simply order me to be reduced to a concubine and the second wife to be promoted to be the master mother! "
The Da Furen's tone was really heartbroken and disappointed, as if she had nothing to love in her life.
Duanmuhuang immediately frowned, and shouted angrily, "Nonsense! This matter has not been investigated yet. I am discussing with the elders. What are you doing here?"
He looked majestically at the eldest lady's female officer, and ordered: "Qingzhu, immediately take the eldest lady back to her room to rest!"
However, Qingzhu was unmoved.
The eldest lady took out a stack of ledgers and files from the sleeve of her robe, and said with a sneer: "Patriarch, I have already guessed that you will be kept in the dark by Duanmu Feiyu, and I believe he is innocent.
Therefore, I have sent people to find out the evidence that Duanmu Feiyu embezzled the family business!
There are six accounts and files here, and every property and every property that Duanmu Feiyu has embezzled in the past few years are clearly remembered on them!
The facts are all there, and the ironclad evidence is as strong as a mountain! I'd like to see if you can deal with it fairly, Patriarch, and give everyone an explanation! "
