Chapter 671
Su Mingli took a deep look at Su Mingqi, he finally knew what it meant to stop barking a biting dog.
This Su Mingqi has endured for such a long time, even when he was enforcing the family law in the Law Enforcement Hall, he didn't refute a word, just let it go, but now that he found an opportunity, he was forced into a corner by Su Mingli with just one word.
Having served as Patriarch for so long, Su Mingli has actually improved a lot now.
After all, those who can cultivate to the state of fusion of gods will not be fools. They may have different personalities, but they are very capable of learning.
At least the current Su Mingli is much better than when Su Xin first met him. If Su Mingli wants to deal with Su Xin again at this time, he will not use this inefficient and extremely risky method again.
Because of this, Su Mingli also understood that this matter was indeed Su Zhongyuan's fault, and at the same time he secretly scolded Su Zhongyuan for being an idiot in his heart.
It was Su Zhongyuan who forcibly incorporated the major sect families last time. As a result, the entire Beiyuan Road and the Dugu Clan joined forces, and was threatened and suppressed by Su Xin.
In the end, he didn't expect that Su Chongyuan would be such an idiot, and now he came up with an idea to collect offerings from various aristocratic families and sects.
What is the difference between this kind of thing and forcibly incorporating those aristocratic sects? It's just that one is in place at one time, while the other is boiling frogs in warm water, no matter which one is acceptable to those sect families.
So what Su Chongying and others did was not wrong. If they really went, it would be causing trouble for the Su family.
But now Su Mingqi is determined. If Su Mingli doesn't open his mouth, he really dares to take people down the mountain to threaten those aristocratic families and sects to hand over the offerings, but in this way, the Su family will have to face the entire Northern Plains again. The joint confrontation of all martial arts forces.
In desperation, Su Mingli had no choice but to give Su Chongyuan a hard look, then coughed twice and said: "It is true that Su Chongyuan did something wrong, Chongying and the others did the right thing, not only should they not be punished, but should also be rewarded.
In this way, after a while, each of you will go to the elixir hall to receive half a year's elixir as compensation, and you don't have to worry that Su Chongyuan will retaliate against you. teach him a lesson. "
Su Chongyuan wanted to say something, but was stared back by Su Mingli.
It's just that those direct bloodlines of the Su family feel very humiliated. When are they going to bow their heads to these collateral bloodlines? This is something that has never happened in tens of thousands of years!
Moreover, Su Mingqi and others are also very dissatisfied with the result of Su Mingli's handling.
The salaries of these collateral bloodlines are very low every month, even if it is a one-time compensation for half a year, how much is it?
And most importantly, Su Mingli's last sentence made them ridicule in their hearts.
After this incident, if Su Chongyuan wants revenge, will he find you? At that time, whether you will care or not is not certain.
Those direct bloodlines just now were going to take down Su Mingqi regardless of right or wrong. If Su Mingqi hadn't called all the collateral bloodlines, I'm afraid he would have entered the Law Enforcement Hall again.
The next time there is no such a good opportunity to find so many collateral bloodlines to join together, then it will be up to you to decide?
So Su Mingqi said directly: "We appreciate the kindness of the Patriarch, but this time we just want the ancestor to give us a fair treatment and give us justice."
Su Mingli's face was gloomy and he said, "Could it be that what I said doesn't work?"
Su Mingqi's face remained unchanged and he said: "The words of the Patriarch are naturally useful, but let the ancestors decide."
Who in the entire Su family doesn't know that the only one who really keeps his word is the ancestor of the Su family.
Even Su Mingli, the head of the family, is useless to speak.
But it made Su Mingli quite embarrassed to say this kind of thing in public.
The most important thing is that now these collateral bloodlines don't let go of rabbits and hawks, and they have to meet the ancestors of the Su family before they dare to let go.
"The ancestor is retreating to recuperate, why see you?"
Su Mingqi said indifferently: "We don't want to meet the ancestor directly, we just need to tell the ancestor about this matter, and there is a promise from the ancestor."
Su Mingli thought for a while, and said with a gloomy face: "Okay, okay, I'll take you to see the ancestor, and see what the ancestor will say when the time comes!"
Then Su Mingli snorted coldly, and led the people directly to the place where the ancestor of the Su family was recuperating.
Now Su Mingli is taking the position of Patriarch, but this kind of thing never happened when Su Mingyuan was Patriarch.
But now that such a big incident happened after he became the head of the family, would the Patriarch of the Su family think that he was incompetent and unsuitable to be the head of the family?
Su Mingli thought bitterly, but he could only take them to meet the ancestor of the Su family.
After all, today's incident is a bit too big. If he suppresses it forcefully, once these collateral bloodlines riot, it will be a catastrophe for their Su family.
The place where the ancestor of the Su family retreated was actually inside a cliff.
The entire peak of Wutong Mountain has been bulldozed by the former Wutong Village, leaving only a cliff, which is also the place with the strongest vitality in the entire Wutong Mountain. The ancestors of the Su family dug a cave here, and spent the whole day in the cave. Retreat and recuperate here.
When he came to the cliff, Su Mingli said loudly: "Old Ancestor, there is something in the clan that needs to be decided by you, Ancestor."
In fact, this is not the first time that Su Mingli has come to see the ancestor of the Su family when he was recuperating from his wounds.
After all, the ancestor of the Su family now has a unique position in the Su family, and any important matters in the Su family need to be reported to him first, so that Su Mingli is qualified to actually carry out this matter.
The patriarch of the Su family knew this himself, so he didn't immerse his mind completely in it even when he was retreating. Instead, he kept some of his mind outside, so that he could deal with it if something important happened.
"Tell me, what is it?"
The ancestor of the Su family spoke slowly, the voice came from the cliff, but through the echo, it seemed to go deep into the minds of everyone, even Su Mingqi and others couldn't help but kneel down on one knee and saluted the ancestor of the Su family .
Su Mingli stood up, and he slowly told the ancestors of the Su family about the situation at that time, and there are so many people here now, Su Mingli did not lie, but just told the original scene unchanged.
Anyway, with so many people watching what happened back then, it wouldn't be interesting for him to add more oil and vinegar.
The patriarch of the Su family sighed after hearing this, but the eyes of Su Mingqi and the others revealed a look of anticipation.
Now as soon as the ancestors of the Su family speak, the status of their collateral blood in the Su family will immediately change.
The majestic voice of the ancestor of the Su family came out, and he snorted softly: "Nonsense! You don't know what time it is, you know what nonsense!
Now that my Su family is in danger, we should work together to overcome this difficulty, and what else are you doing besides messing around here?
Su Chongyuan, last time it was because of you that the major families and sects of Beiyuan Road jointly threatened my Su family. Now you still dare to mess around here. Do you want to put my Su family to death? "
A trace of dissatisfaction appeared on Su Chongyuan's face. Can he be blamed for what happened last time? If it weren't for the other bloodlines of the Su family who saw that he had benefited and shot together, how could there be such a big commotion?
Besides, the patriarch of the Su family actually bet his life last time, which made Su Chongyuan's resentment almost impossible to increase.
However, he didn't dare to be presumptuous in the face of the Su family patriarch, so he could only lower his head and listen to the Su family patriarch's reprimand.
With a cold snort, the Patriarch of the Su family said lightly: "From now on, when I am retreating, the Patriarch will decide all the affairs of the Su family. Anyone who has anything to do must report to the Patriarch immediately. If anyone dares to make a decision without authorization, he will be severely punished." loan!
This is the second time Su Chongyuan has committed a crime, so this time he must be punished by sealing his internal energy and going to the Law Enforcement Hall to receive a hundred lashes. If he dares to commit the crime again, his martial arts will be revoked and he will be imprisoned for life! "
Su Chongyuan's complexion turned pale immediately, this punishment was not considered light for him.
He is not a martial artist who refines his body, and the Su family has several types of canings. In the case of sealing the internal force, several of them can directly cause serious injuries to him!
Although the ancestor of the Su family didn't say what kind of whip to use, the whips in the Su family law enforcement hall are all specially made, specially prepared for the disciples of the Su family who made mistakes.
Since the Patriarch of the Su family didn't mention the type of whip, he would use the default steel whip instead of using the fire pattern steel whip like Su Mingqi.
But even so, Su Chongyuan's whole body trembled, that was a hundred lashes, it is estimated that after the beating, he would need to recuperate for several months before he could recover.
He wanted to refute, but the power of the ancestor of the Su family in the Su family was unmatched, so Su Chongyuan could only respectfully say to the ancestor of the Su family: "Chongyuan knows that he was wrong, and he will never do it again in the future."
Su Chongyuan gritted his teeth with hatred psychologically, but Su Mingqi and Su Mingli were very happy.
The reason why Su Mingli is happy is that the patriarch of the Su family finally chose to delegate power.
You must know that according to the previous virtues of the ancestor of the Su family, he must still hold on to the power in his hands, and it must not be so easy to hand it over.
It's just that he may have discovered that he has to take charge of family affairs while cultivating, which delays both sides, and also affects the authority of the patriarch, so at this moment he really wants to delegate power.
In fact, the Patriarch of the Su family also had some regrets.
If he had delegated all the power to Su Mingyuan back then, so that Su Chongyuan and others did not dare to act presumptuously, then with the restraint of a patriarch like Su Mingyuan, they probably would not dare to act recklessly.
It's just that it's too late now, the incident has already happened, and their Su family's vitality has been greatly injured by it, so now the ancestors of the Su family are doing their best to make up for it.
