Chapter 134: The Replaced Ancient Family
Chapter 134 The replaced ancient family
That treasure was in Qiao Yunshan's hands, Lin Chen knew it well.
My wife wanted to bring down Qiao Yunshan and get back the baby, because she was an agent working for China, and Lin Chen also understood this very well.
It is not uncommon for foreign underground forces, even foreign authorities, to covet Chinese national treasures.
But the old man of the Xia family also wants to get this treasure? It seems that his reason is just that he doesn't want the Qiao family to grow stronger?
There is bound to be competition among the aristocratic families.
This treasure actually made these top aristocratic families refuse to let it go. Presumably the secret hidden behind it is very amazing?
Xia Hen saw Lin Chen's doubts, and in order to persuade this stubborn boy, he explained patiently:
"I asked you to represent the Xia family for two important reasons!
First, you have passed the water gate three battles. For hundreds of years, only members of the Xia family were able to try this formation! Not only did you try it, but you also learned the Xia family's unique knowledge. Shouldn't you do something for the Xia family to show it?
Second, there is a big secret hidden behind that treasure. Legend has it that as long as you get this secret, you can dominate all things!
Although this statement is exaggerated and unrealistic, since it is a legend, it has certain reference value.
Our eight great families in the capital, plus the hundreds of millennium families below us, have always obeyed the instructions of the three ancient families. We've never been this confused in hundreds of years!
The reason is very simple, the dragons have no leader!
Among the three great aristocratic families in ancient times, the Su family has disappeared in recent decades, and its descendants have hardly appeared in people's sight; the Ye family has developed in the past few decades, but apart from controlling China's supervision Department, there is no outstanding performance. In a sense, the Ye family and the Su family are almost so low-key that people will almost forget it!
As for the other family among the three great aristocratic families in ancient times, it had completely disappeared decades ago!
An old man like me may only know how brilliant and overbearing they used to be. But in this peaceful age, their people and their affairs have become history in the long river of time.
It is precisely because these three families have kept a low profile in recent decades that the eight major families in the capital, as well as other powerful millennium families across the country, have seen the hope of becoming the leader of the millennium family!
The Qiao family was lucky...it was really good. Since there had been no movement from that hidden ancient family for decades, the Ye family and the Su family finally agreed to let them be promoted to the ancient family. But in fact, their strength is at the level of the Eight Great Aristocratic Families.
Although our Xia family doesn't want to fight among themselves and fall into this vortex, but for the stability of China, and to resist those foreign forces who have always harbored evil intentions, I have no choice but to participate in the competition for this treasure!
As long as you get this treasure...boy, do you know what I do? "
Lin Chen pondered for a while and guessed, "You want to organize these thousand-year-old families to explore the secret behind the treasure together?"
Xia Hen smiled, then withdrew his smile suddenly, and said seriously:
"No! The more expensive the treasure, the more dangerous it is! I don't want too many Chinese elites to fall into internal strife because of that legend, and even die for this treasure!
Regardless of the attitudes of those aristocratic families, the existence of a thousand-year-old aristocratic family is the greatest heritage of Huaxia Kingdom. If our strength is absolutely weakened, then a nation like the Wa Kingdom, which has always been eyeing China with covetous eyes, will stretch out their sharp minions and make China face the baptism of war again!
My plan is very simple... After I get the treasure, I will directly destroy it! "
Hearing this, Lin Chen's eyes widened suddenly, and he couldn't help admiring the old Mrs. Xia!
The Huaxia Kingdom is not afraid of the strength of the enemy, but is afraid of chaos before a war.
Old Mrs. Xia understands this truth deeply, that's why he made such a righteous move.
The baby is gone, so what is everyone fighting for?
Lin Chen nodded slightly, and said solemnly: "Grandpa, let me tell the truth. I originally planned to fight for that treasure! Of course, my original intention is different from yours, I am for one person! But now I have listened to your words , I also feel that there is a conspiracy in the world that is about to start! So, this time, I am willing to fight for this treasure for you!"
Lin Chen's attitude made Xia Hen overjoyed.
He looked at Lin Chen excitedly, laughed and said, "Ha, boy, I knew you would not let me down! Of course, don't worry, as long as you complete this matter, you will be the only grandson-in-law of my Xia family ! And I won't let you fight alone, the entire Xia family is your backstage!"
"Oh, old man, I am willing to do this for you because I admire your vision and character. But I hope that I can complete this dangerous task alone!
If the Xia family supports me to fight for the treasure with all their strength, then the balance in the family will be broken! By that time, if the baby hasn't been found yet, maybe the family has already fought hard.
And just as you said, we want to preserve the power of the family, so we can't compete for this treasure with great fanfare. "
Xia Tian's hale and hale eyes fell on Lin Chen.
"You kid, not only is your luck extremely strong, but you also have a good brain. After the Qiao family got the treasure, they immediately handed it over to Qiao Yunshan to keep the treasure away from the capital. If anyone in the aristocratic family took the initiative If you do it, you will definitely become the number one enemy of the Qiao family.
It is not easy for you to see through this. Well, I will leave this matter to you. If you need anything, you can directly mention it to me! "
After the conversation between the old and the young, Xia Qiuxue quietly stayed beside Lin Chen, with guilt and worry on her face.
The appearance of this mixed-race beauty who wants to cry but has no tears is really heartbreaking.
Lin Chen smiled wryly and said, "Miss Xia, I have completed the agreement between you and me. I hope you can help me get the approval document as soon as possible. In addition, Mr. Ye, please take care of your brother. In two or three days, after I recover, I can go back to work with Mr. Ye."
However.
In Xia Qiuxue's eyes, of course she didn't know that her grandfather had reached another important agreement with Lin Chen, and she didn't know that Lin Chen had gained a lot from the Three Battles of Water Gate. All she knew was that Lin Chen almost paid the price with his life for his somewhat absurd and unreasonable farce!
There was something indescribable in her beautiful green eyes. The way she looked at Lin Chen was also obviously different from a few days ago.
Suddenly, she bit her lip lightly, summoned up her courage and asked:
"Lin Chen, tell me honestly, do you like Ye Ninghan? You don't have to argue, I'm a woman, and my sixth sense is very accurate!"
Lin Chen coughed awkwardly: "I like her. And..."
Lin Chen originally wanted to tell Xia Qiuxue his true relationship with Ye Ninghan, but the mixed-race beauty directly covered his mouth and said firmly:
"I know! You don't need to say any more! No matter what you think, anyway... Anyway, I found that I like you!"
