Chapter 41
PS: Thanks to book friend Ma Sanshan for the reward of 15,000 starting coins.
His own dog was killed, which made Shen Mo very angry, and more troublesome.
Shen Jiaxiong dominates Tongzhou Mansion, so there is not much to do, and with Shen Rong's ability, he can take care of it in an orderly manner.
Shen Rong was loyal enough, and he used it quite smoothly, but now he was killed like this, where would he go to find such a person?
At this time, the servant said cautiously: "Patriarch, the people from the Chu family are waiting outside, they said that this incident was just an accident, and they absolutely did not mean to conflict with my Shen family.
As long as the Shen family is willing to expose this matter, then everything is easy to talk about. "
Shen Mo raised his brows: "Everything is easy to talk about? This Chu family is quite sensible, so call me the people from the Chu family."
In the living room, Steward Chen bowed to Shen Mo with a humble attitude: "Patriarch Shen, my Chu family..."
"Okay, I know what you want to say, so don't talk nonsense."
Chen Butler was interrupted by Shen Mo before he finished speaking.
Shen Mo directly waved his hand and said: "The second child of your Chu family killed the housekeeper of my Shen family, this matter was not so easy to settle.
But for the sake of your Chu family's sincerity this time, I will tolerate it once and don't go into it further. "
Just as Housekeeper Chen breathed a sigh of relief, Shen Mo said lightly: "I can't bear the heart of your patriarch, a white-haired man to give away a black-haired man. What about Chu Xiu? You can just teach him a lesson by crippling his martial arts."
Chen Butler was shocked when he heard this, and abolishing his martial arts was no different from killing Chu Xiu!
Just as he was about to say something, Shen Mo's face darkened and he said: "Don't refuse! Your Chu family has no right to refuse now, I'm already magnanimous enough.
It will be Qingming in a few days, my elder brother is going back to Shen's house to pay respects to his father, when the incident got into my elder brother's ears, he won't have anything to talk about like me!
Take these words back to Chu Zongguang, the choice is in his hands, whether he wants a son or the Chu family, let him choose! "
After the words fell, Shen Mo turned around and left, leaving Butler Chen with a helpless expression on his face.
The backer behind the Shen family is too big, it is so big that as long as the backer is moved out, it can completely crush their Chu family.
When Steward Chen told Chu Zongguang what the Shen family meant, Chu Zongguang also had a look of anger on his face, obviously he was also dissatisfied with the Shen family's overbearing.
Steward Chen at the side said in a low voice: "Patriarch, otherwise, I will go and seek refuge with the Beiyan court, as the Second Young Master said.
No matter how strong and domineering he Canglan Sword Sect is, can he still surpass Beiyan court? "
Chu Zongguang shook his head and said, "Absolutely not! Old Chen, you know about my affairs. Now that I'm researching that thing at a critical moment, how can I have time to be distracted and deal with these matters?
I've told Chu Xiu this traitor a long time ago, and told him to be more honest, but he just didn't listen, and now something has happened, and it will even implicate my entire Chu family! "
Chu Zongguang showed a cold look on his face and said: "Chen Steward, go and tell Shen Mo that I agree to his condition, and invite him to Chu's house for a drink tonight. I will abolish Chu Xiu in public and give him an explanation." .”
Chen Butler hesitated: "But the second son's talent is still good, in the future..."
Chu Zongguang directly waved his hand and said: "The future is the future, let him bear the troubles caused by Nizi himself!
I will remember what happened to the Shen family this time, and when I succeed in researching that thing in the future and my strength improves, I will personally ask the Shen family to recover the debt!
And I, Chu Zongguang, don’t just have one son. Chu Xiu’s rebellious character is too radical, and he is not suitable for managing the family. This time, I will abolish his martial arts, save his life, and let him be a rich son. Don’t think about it How useless. "
Steward Chen shook his head. Since Chu Zongguang had done this, he had no choice but to do so.
At this time, the Chu family also began to prepare a banquet to welcome Shen Mo.
Chu Zongguang's decision was not intended to be hidden from others. Gao Bei was shocked when he got the news from others. He hurriedly took a pile of food, pretended to deliver food to Chu Xiu, and entered the ancestral hall.
The guardian of the ancestral hall was a retainer of the blood congealing state of the Chu family, and several servants of the Chu family. Gao Bei wanted to see Chu Xiu, but they did not stop him. To be honest, they did not agree with Chu Zongguang's actions.
Killing a housekeeper of the Shen family means abolishing his own son's martial arts to make up for the crime, which is a bit too embarrassing.
Inside the ancestral hall, Chu Xiu looked calm. Seeing Gao Bei walk in, Chu Xiu frowned and asked, "Have things changed outside?"
Gao Bei put down the food box, and said to Chu Xiu in a low voice: "My lord, it's not good! The Patriarch of the Shen family, Shen Mo, actually asked you to abolish your martial arts to pay for your crime, but the master agreed! Shen Mo will come tonight, and the master is ready Abolish your martial arts in public, give Shen Mo an explanation!"
Chu Xiu's face suddenly showed a gleam of coldness, his father is really good at it!
For warriors, abolishing a person's martial arts is simply like death, and it is no different from killing him.
What really made Chu Xiu unbelievable was that Chu Zongguang could agree to such outrageous conditions. Is the Shen family too strong or Chu Zongguang too cowardly?
"Young Master, what should we do now? How about I inform Ma Kuo and ask them to help?"
Chu Xiu shook his head and said: "It's useless, Ma Kuo has not yet reached the blood coagulation level, even the Chu family can't rush in, and I can't get out either."
The Blood Congealing Realm warrior Chu Xiu who is currently guarding the ancestral hall can completely kill him, but the problem is that he does not have the Yanling Saber by his side, only a short knife, and it will take some time to kill him. There was enough time for Chu Zongguang to arrive.
Although the gap between blood coagulation and innate is only a realm, it is also a small bottleneck.
As long as it is a bottleneck, there will be a surge in strength after crossing it. With Chu Xiu's current strength, he has no confidence in facing Chu Zongguang at all.
And the time is a little too tight now, it is already noon, and Shen Mo will come over in the evening. If there are a few more days, Chu Xiu can still ask Ma Kuo to go to Shangmang Mountain to find Han Bao, and ask Han Bao to help Save him, but it's too late now.
Chu Xiu thought about it, and a frightening coldness appeared in his eyes.
There are pens and paper in the ancestral hall, which are usually used to record the date of worship and other things.
Chu Xiu wrote something on the paper, folded it and handed it to Gao Bei, and said in a deep voice, "Go and give this paper to Ma Kuo, and let him put it with the three weirdos. After that, let Ma Kuo leave immediately and return to Shangmang Mountain.
And you yourself too, after you hand over the paper to Ma Kuo, you immediately leave Tongzhou Prefecture with the caravan, go to Qingyuan Town, remember, after you leave, don’t come back! "
There was a look of shock in Gao Bei's eyes, and he sent himself and Ma Kuo away. Although he didn't know the details, Gao Bei could vaguely guess what Chu Xiu was going to do.
Just as he was about to say something, Chu Xiu directly shouted: "Time is running out, there is no time to talk nonsense, just do as I say!"
Gao Bei gritted his teeth, placed the paper next to his body, and left the ancestral hall.
Chu Xiu opened the food box with no expression on his face. It contained his favorite rice wine, a golden pheasant and side dishes.
With a calm face, he poured a glass of wine and tore off a chicken leg, but at this moment, Chu Xiu's eyes revealed a faint murderous intent.
He couldn't take the position of heir to the Chu family, and the plan couldn't keep up with the rapid changes.
Chu Xiu didn't want things to come to this point, but he didn't want to lose his martial arts, so everyone else had to die!
At night, the Chu family's mansion was brightly lit, and Shen Mo also arrived as scheduled. Shen Mo was very satisfied with the knowledge of the Chu family.
Shen Mo just brought a few confidantes to the Chu family, while Chu Zongguang directly brought Chu Kai, Chu Sheng who had just been released, and some elders of the Chu family to greet them in person.
"Patriarch Shen's presence this time really makes my Chu family flourish. The banquet is ready, please come in."
There was a hypocritical smile on Chu Zongguang's face. Although he secretly hated Shen Mo's dominance, he still had to bow his head when he was under the eaves. Since he was not going to be an enemy of the Shen family, the face It must be enough.
Shen Mo cupped his hands casually and said, "Patriarch Chu is being polite."
After everyone was seated in the living room, Chu Zongguang raised his glass to Shen Mo and said, "Patriarch Shen, it was really a misunderstanding that my naughty son killed Shen Rong, and that naughty son has always been restless. How much trouble has I caused, today I will abolish him in front of you, Patriarch Shen, and apologize to you, Patriarch Shen!"
Shen Mo nodded and said: "In a martial arts family like me, the most important thing for a disciple is to abide by the rules. Without rules, you can't get anywhere. Then Chu Xiu should teach me a lesson."
Chu Zongguang waved his hand and said in a deep voice, "Go and bring Chu Xiu to me!"
After a while, the warrior of the blood coagulation level of the Chu family brought Chu Xiu over.
This is the first time for Shen Mo to see Chu Xiu, but this first meeting made him feel a little strange.
Chu Xiu should know his situation at this time. He was deprived of all his powers and his martial arts. Why didn't he have the slightest panic on his face, but he was still very calm?
Chu Zongguang snorted coldly, and was about to say something when he heard a loud bang, the door of the Chu family was blasted open, and screams came from the front yard.
