Chapter 417 You Want Me To Die?
Shangguan Long Xiao's eyes flickered. Although he did not remember these people, he was not stupid and would not expose his amnesia at this time.
"What, you want me to die?"
There was a smile on his face, with a very dark color.
That mysterious look made Shangguan Qingshan's heart skip a beat, and his face turned pale as well, as if there was a ghost in his heart.
Shangguan Longxiao thought about it secretly and felt that the person in front of him must know some truth about his amnesia, and he secretly had an idea in his heart.
"How is that possible? I'm your eldest brother. It's... it's great that you are alive."
This sound was too nice and not sincere at all.
Shangguan Hongtian walked to the door with his wife and Shangguan Jie, his old eyes were a little red: "When I heard the bad news about you, I thought... it would be good just to come back."
He reached out and patted Shangguan Long Xiao on the shoulder.
Shangguan Long Xiao did not hide away. After all, when she came, Yun Chang also secretly helped her inquire about the situation inside Shangguan's family. He still knew who the people present were.
His face swept away and his expression became a little cold.
"Why, you are bullying my daughter by taking advantage of your strength in numbers?"
He stood in front of Wen Yao, and his tall figure gave people a very reassuring feeling. The corners of Wen Yao's mouth slowly raised, giving him a rare smile.
"It's absolutely impossible. I'm just competing and comparing with each other. I don't mean to hurt her."
The great elder came down and explained with a cheerful face that he was the happiest person about Shangguan Long Xiao's sudden return.
"Today is the day when the head of the family is here. Yao'er is going through the final test. If she can beat Qingshan, the position of the head of the family will be hers."
Shangguan Long Xiao was a little skeptical, but he still turned to look at Wen Yao: "Is what they said true? But it's obviously a competition, why do I feel that he wants to hurt you?"
Wen Yao grabbed Shangguan Long Xiao's wrist.
"It's really a discussion."
Hearing this, the first elder breathed a sigh of relief and gave Wen Yao an approving look. Everyone had seen Shangguan Long Xiao's martial arts just now. If Wen Yao could be the head of the family, it might be of great benefit to their Shangguan family.
After all, the Shangguan family has become more and more lonely in recent years. The royal family has gradually become more powerful, and the living space of the oppressed family has gradually become smaller, making it difficult for the entire family.
The Shangguan family, which sounded brilliant in the past, has now become depressed. Coupled with the spread of the epidemic some time ago, they have also been greatly affected.
It’s impossible to survive, so no one can come here to practice martial arts.
Wen Yao walked back to the high platform and waved to Shangguan Qingshan.
"Then, go ahead."
Shangguan Qingshan was stunned: "I've been injured, how can I continue to compete today? It's not fair to me."
Wen Yao laughed: "I don't have much time. If you had been hit by that blow just now, I'm afraid it wouldn't have been as simple as serious injury."
After saying this, Shangguan Qingshan's face turned green and white.
However, he knew that Wen Yao's words were absolutely serious. He might have injured Wen Yao, but he would have died just now.
After all, he still wanted to thank Shangguan Long Xiao for his sudden arrival and saving his life.
But even though he said this, the result was not the same. The position of the head of the family was very important, and he would never give up lightly and hand it over to a yellow-haired girl.
"Elders, we must not break the rules in this matter. It would be unfair if someone ruined the competition in the middle of the competition. Please give me a few days to recover from my injuries before making a decision."
This duel made Shangguan Qingshan feel a strong sense of crisis. It was not an option to continue fighting like this. While delaying time, he had to think of ways as much as possible to prevent Wen Yao from having a chance to play again.
The decision in his eyes had been made up, and a haze flashed across his eyes.
The second elder nodded: "According to what the head of the family said, this matter of the head of the house is not a trivial matter. In a few days, the head of the house will recover from his injury, so you can compete again."
Wen Yao glanced at him coldly: "If he has to rest for five or ten years from his injury, is it possible that I have to wait for him? The capable head of this family is here to let a man who is seriously injured and can no longer fight sit there.
, isn’t it a bit wasteful?”
Shangguan Qingshan was so angry that he almost vomited blood.
"Three days, here in three days, you and I will compete again!"
Three days, this is still within her acceptable range.
Squinting his eyes gently, Wen Yao said calmly: "Okay."
Even though the matter was settled, the onlookers saw that there was no excitement to be seen, so they said goodbye to the Shangguan family one by one and left one after another.
The huge courtyard suddenly became empty, and the family members also dispersed. The second master and fifth master of the Shangguan family quickly came to Shangguan Long Xiao's side, with a touch of excitement in their eyes.
The great elder touched his beard and said with a smile: "If you are the head of the family, none of the old men will object."
What he said was Shangguan Longxiao. However, Shangguan Longxiao said: "I am old, now I can just leave this family to young people, and my daughter is the head of the Western Three Kingdoms. Is it possible that even a small aristocratic family can't be connected?"
Can’t you care?"
"What?"
Shangguan Hongtian's eyes widened.
Even Shangguan Chongfeng was stunned.
What he said was really shocking. He had never known that a little girl could actually become an empress.
Wen Yao felt very calm about this, and did not feel any complacency at all because of the other party's surprise.
This thing seems quite majestic to say, but only she herself knows how much she has paid to get to this point.
Even Mo Dongliu's life was included.
A dark color flashed across his eyes, and Wen Yao opened his lips: "I am here this time without hiding anything from you two. Firstly, it is because our army of the Three Kingdoms cannot send troops to Tianheng without permission, and secondly, it needs to be penetrated silently.
Inside Tianheng Palace."
Shangguan Hongtian barely recovered from the shock: "You girl, are you planning to lead the Shangguan family in rebellion? Don't forget, the Shangguan family is also in Tianheng territory now. If anyone knows about this, I'm afraid...
To..." bear the calamity of genocide.
Wen Yao said: "I know that the second uncle is worried, but don't worry, as long as I am here, no one will dare to touch the Shangguan family."
Her words were so brazen that Shangguan Hongtian's expression changed again and again.
There are not many capable aristocratic families left back then. The Shangguan family is also struggling to survive, and now it can be regarded as an existence dependent on Tianheng.
"Yao'er, my second uncle doesn't understand what you mean. This kind of big matter cannot be decided by just talking. At least we have to call a few old guys to talk about it, so that we can explain it and appease the hearts of the juniors below.
."
Shangguan Jie felt the tension in his father's tone and smiled: "Dad, you heard Yao'er right, I still believe in her vision."
Shangguan Hongtian patted him aside.
He smiled helplessly and looked at the back of his father's head with a speechless expression.
"This matter must be discussed, otherwise it will be useless even if you become the head of the family. The clan is not as simple as you think, and it is not the words of the head of the family."
Wen Yao nodded: "Okay then, my second uncle, please help me call someone who can make the decision tonight, and I will personally come forward to persuade you."
This step would have to be done sooner or later, not to mention that she didn't take Shangguan Qingshan seriously at all.
Therefore, Wen Yao also plans to use these three days to do business and has no intention of taking a rest.
The group of people was taken to Shangguan Hongtian's home. Shangguan Jie was the only son in the family. There were no chaotic people in the house, and it looked very warm.
The second wife personally made some snacks for them, while the second master went directly to invite people.
That night, all the people who could take charge of Shangguan's family were invited to one place, except Shangguan Qingshan, who was still recovering from his injuries.
Because after two days, this matter will have nothing to do with him, and it won’t matter whether he disagrees or agrees.
The three elders sat at the front, and the others sat on the left and right sides.
The middle position was reserved for Wen Yao.
Shangguan Long Xiao also sat among them, sitting side by side with Shangguan Hongtian, and opposite them were the third elder, the fourth master Shangguan Qingshi, and the second elder with a cold face.
Before everyone could do anything, the second elder's expression dropped: "Why, she called our group over, but she's so arrogant and she hasn't arrived yet?"
Shangguan Hongtian smiled: "Second Elder, don't worry, the time has not come yet, she said she needs to prepare some things."
"Humph, these are all excuses. If it weren't for your sake, how could I come here and listen to those nonsense things."
The group of people had different thoughts.
Soon, the door opened, and Wen Yao pushed open the door of the room and stepped in from the outside.
Her face was calm, and even though she was receiving the attention of many people, she did not panic at all. She was as calm and composed as if she was strolling in her own garden.
Seeing her like this, the second elder's expression turned unpleasant. He slammed the table and said, "You're just pretending to be a ghost. You just tell me what you want. And you specially brought everyone here to waste time with you!"
Wen Yao raised his eyebrows: "If you don't like to hear it, no one will keep you."
The second elder stood up angrily and was about to leave. Shangguan Hongtian had a big head: "Yao'er, the second elder is an important person in the family. You must not offend him."
Wen Yao gave his second uncle face and went straight to the topic without saying anything else: "I have invited you all here today because I want to ask you whether you want to stay here and live a low-key life, or whether you want to restore the Shangguan family's former glory.
"
Hearing Wen Yao's question, even the great elder was surprised: "Girl Yao, what do you mean by this?"
Wen Yao clicked on the table: "There are two ways now. If you continue to stay and be Tian Heng's accomplice, in the future you will be yelled at and beaten by everyone like the Beiming family today, or you should stand by my side and deal with Tian Heng together."
"
The great elder frowned slightly and thought deeply.
The choice given by Wen Yao really makes people a little hesitant, after all, this decision determines the lives of many juniors in the Shangguan family.
The second elder stood up without thinking, pointed at Wen Yao's nose and cursed: "Sure enough, you girl came to my Shangguan house just because you were uneasy and kind-hearted. What did I think? It turns out that you want to take everything we have."
