Chapter 3307 Survival from desperate situation
No family can afford the reputation of brothers fighting each other and killing each other.
Changsun Jing, however, had a lot of time. He was sure that Changsun Yan would definitely die and there was no way he could escape from this danger. He smiled and said: "If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing. But I don't want to argue with my brother at this time. You still want to Think about how you should survive this crisis.”
Changsun Yan was so angry that his eyes were red and his pupils were bloodshot, and he shouted angrily: "If you hadn't instigated Lao Wu to do such stupid things, how could I have fallen into such a dangerous situation?"
"Ha!"
Changsun Jing sneered and said: "The matter in the Western Region was planned by my brother. In the end, it failed, so the responsibility will naturally be borne by my brother. Why, when death is imminent, I still want to drag my little brother to be buried with you, can't I?"
When these words came out, they were already torn apart. The secretive feelings of brotherhood and brotherhood in the past were gone at this moment.
All the elders and brothers in the study were silent.
As if the matter has nothing to do with me...
Changsun Yan laughed angrily, nodded repeatedly, ignored Chairman Sun Jing, and asked several clan elders: "Everyone, the Changsun family has been passed down for hundreds of years, and the descendants are flourishing and glorious. It is precisely because of the close blood and unity in the clan. Agreed. Now that the family is facing a crisis, some people are cheating and plotting against each other. What do you think?”
All the clan elders were silent, but Changsun Yan kept staring at him intensely. After a while, one clan elder coughed dryly and said, "What Silang said is true. The reason why the Changsun family is today's glory depends on the unity of the children. Everyone contributes. Now that the family is in crisis, the prince has already spoken out and vowed to give Fang Jun an explanation... At this time, I am afraid that someone needs to stand up and take the blame on his own to prevent the family from being dragged down. "
Even if someone agreed: "This is a great thing to say. It is precisely because of the prosperity of the family that we have our glory. Personal interests must always be subordinated to the interests of the family. At this critical moment, someone should step forward. Everyone in the family will be aware of this." Remember his kindness and take care of his descendants."
"Hoho, hahaha!"
Changsun Yan could no longer suppress his inner grief and anger, and laughed miserably.
These people have obviously planned secretly to push themselves out to take responsibility for their crimes and protect their prosperity and wealth.
But what can he do?
Personal interests must give way to the interests of the family. In the same way, how can personal will violate the will of the family?
When everyone wanted to sacrifice him to save everyone, and in the name of family interests, no matter how dissatisfied he was, he couldn't resist at all.
It's a pity that I made a plan, thinking that I could succeed as the head of the family naturally, but I didn't expect that people are not as good as God, and the plan that was supposed to be foolproof went wrong. Fang Jun was not dead, and the Youtun Guards were not destroyed. Powerful to destroy heaven and earth.
In the end, it will end up in an extremely miserable situation. All ambitions and great achievements will be reduced to smoke in the blink of an eye...
He staggered to his feet, took a deep look at Changsun Jing, and with hatred like a surging river, he gritted his teeth and said: "I am a descendant of the Changsun family. I should shoulder my responsibilities and die without regrets. It's just that you and I are brothers. He is so despicable and vicious that he deserves death!”
How could Changsun Jing be afraid of threats from a dying man?
He said calmly: "This matter was done by the fifth brother, and the younger brother did not know about it. The fourth brother is willing to shoulder the responsibility, and everyone is responsible for the work. I deeply admire it. Don't worry, after you leave, the sisters-in-law and younger brothers will take good care of you. The nephews should also be treated as if they were their own children, and that’s all.”
Changsun Yan sneered.
Care?
Of course, they will take care of them. The eldest son's family has such a tradition. When the eldest son Sun Dan died unexpectedly, the second brother Sun Huan has been taking good care of the sixth brother's wives and concubines. Haha, he took care of them meticulously and very considerately...
But even if he is still angry, what can he do?
You can't feed all your wives and concubines a mouthful of poisonous wine before you die, and bury yourself in it, right?
He gritted his teeth, with overwhelming hatred in his heart, and said word by word: "When I came back from my dream at midnight, I entrusted Qilang with my dream for my brother. Thank you for being so generous!"
Changsun Jing disagreed and said calmly: "No need to be polite, I should do what I should do."
"Hmph!"
Changsun Yan was so angry that he just waved his sleeves and left.
Suddenly, a burst of rapid footsteps sounded from outside the door. Immediately, a servant said outside the door: "Silang, someone from the East Palace is here, saying that they have summoned Shiro to see you!"
There was a sudden silence in the study, and everyone looked at each other in shock.
East Palace call?
It stands to reason that the prince now wants to skin and dismantle Zhang Sunyan. He is so angry even when he hears the name. How can he be willing to see him with his own eyes? As long as he is ruthless and ignores the deterioration of the situation, and orders the three judicial departments to open a case for investigation, with all the witnesses and material evidence available, Changsun Yan can be put to death easily.
Where is the need to call for an audience?
Unless...
Changsun Jing was panic-stricken and looked ugly. Could it be that the prince changed his mind under pressure?
Changsun Yan had just reached this point. His already desperate heart was beating loudly, and his hands were trembling uncontrollably.
He looked around at everyone in the study, took a deep breath, and without speaking, strode to the door, opened it, and walked out.
It was so quiet in the study room that you could hear a needle drop.
For a long time, the clan elder couldn't help but worry: "Is there something unexpected about this matter?"
Others were speechless.
Next to him, an old man with white beard and hair stood up tremblingly, shook his head, and sighed: "We are forcing you so much today, and I am afraid that Shiro will be full of hatred in his heart. If he dies, that's it. At worst, we will have more troubles in the future. The sons of Zhao Fu have brought him up and flourished. But if Shiro does not die today... we will never have peace in the future."
All the elders of the clan sighed.
Not only is there no peace anymore? With Zhang Sunyan's ruthless heart, he was afraid that he would be killed by someone else if he wasn't careful...
Everyone glanced at Changsun Jing.
Who could see Changsun Wen's stupid behavior and still not understand who was behind it? If Changsun Yan really escaped this disaster, others might be able to slow down and relax, but Changsun Jing would definitely bear the brunt and face Changsun Yan's crazy revenge.
Changsun Jing's face was horribly gloomy, and his heart was pounding.
Mother!
Should we really let Changsun Yan escape this disaster?
It will be troublesome in the future...
*****
When Changsun Yan arrived at Xingqing Palace, the sky had already turned gloomy, and snowflakes were falling. The exquisite and beautiful Xingqing Palace was already lit with lanterns. A string of lanterns was hung at the entrance of the palace. The snowflakes were fluttering and swaying in the orange light, which was particularly soft and beautiful.
Changsun Yan's heart was already in his throat, and his palms were sweating. When the chamberlain in front of the door came in, he stood outside the palace gate in a dignified manner. In the cold wind and snow, there was no trace of emotion. Not even a little bit cold.
After a long while, the chamberlain came over and bowed to invite eldest grandson Yan to come in.
Changsun Yan followed the chamberlain into the palace gate. He lowered his head and did not look sideways. He only stared at the square brick corridor under his feet that had been cleaned on one side. It took him a long time to reach a palace.
This palace is not gorgeous and spacious. It is hidden among bamboo rockeries at night. Under the halo of lanterns, the columns and eaves are beautiful and exquisite, just like a palace in the sky.
When the chamberlain entered, he turned around in a moment and said, "Your Highness, please invite Mr. Changsun to come in and have an audience."
Changsun Yan nodded, straightened his clothes, and then climbed up the stone steps outside the cloister. When he arrived at the entrance of the palace, he took off his shoes and walked into the palace.
There was a burning earth dragon in the hall, which was very warm. There was no one in the faint smell of sandalwood.
Changsun Yan was just astonished. The chamberlain beside him had already turned left into a doorway and hurriedly followed him.
After passing the door, there is a study room.
Huge sandalwood bookshelves were placed on the walls on both sides, and the shelves above were filled with all kinds of books. Other than that, there were not many gorgeous furnishings.
A large book desk is placed near the window. The window has obviously been renovated. The original wooden windows on the wall have been replaced by huge floor-to-ceiling glass windows. The exquisite courtyard outside the window can be seen, and the falling snow falls under the orange light. , very beautiful.
Li Chengqian was dressed in regular clothes, sitting behind the writing desk, writing furiously.
The chamberlain pushed him out sideways, and Changsun Yan stepped forward and bowed his head to the ground: "The guilty minister, Changsun Yan, has an audience with His Highness the Crown Prince!"
Then, before Li Chengqian could speak, he knelt on the ground, bowed his head and confessed.
At this point, he was at the end of his rope and had no other choice. His only hope was that Li Chengqian could change his mind and take back his life.
Therefore, he understood that he must confess his guilt quickly and sincerely at this moment, and show that he was willing to be a slave and obey orders.
However, there was no response.
Changsun Yan was kneeling on the ground, his heart was racing, his palms were dripping with sweat, he was worried about gains and losses, and felt at a loss.
After a long while, a faint voice came from my ears: "Changsun Yan, what are you guilty of?" (End of Chapter)
