Chapter five hundred and thirteen: the mystery of the case

Chapter 513: Case mystery 2

The original owner of Zhanjia Island was surnamed Han. The Han family was wrong and the Han family lost power in Zhantang. After the Zhan family seized power, they suppressed the Han family mercilessly. Although the Han family still had some strength in Zhantang, due to the decline of talents and lack of resources, they had long become an ordinary family force.

The original Hanjia Island and the old house of Han family were also taken away by the Zhan family, and the larger Zhan family home was built on the original basis!

The area of ​​the Zhan family’s old house, even if Xiao Han remembers, is slightly worse than the area of ​​the Forbidden City. It is too large, so large that you can’t imagine that there are thousands of courtyards in a Zhan family, ranging in size. The best ones are more than a dozen rooms, the largest ones are hundreds of houses, the Zhan family’s people have servants, guards and maids, and the number exceeds 50,000.

In other words, an old house in Zhan family accommodates about one-sixth of the population on Zhan family island.

The Zhan family is like the royal family among the humans on Dragon Island. The most important part of the Zhan family’s old house belongs to several palace-style buildings on the central axis. However, compared to the architectural art of the Forbidden City, it is a bit stingy. Even the miniature Forbidden City he built in Fengcheng is not as good as the one he created. However, in the waters of Dragon Island, among the buildings that Xiao Han saw, in addition to the Dragon Palace, this Zhan family’s old house is considered a palace.

The Zhan Family Ancestral Hall is built on the hillside of the back mountain of the Zhan Family’s old house, and it can be regarded as the tallest building complex on Zhan Family Island!

In order to build the ancestral hall, almost half of the back mountain was eliminated, which led to the magnificent ancestral hall of the Zhan family.

The ancestral temple is built on the hillside, and almost half of the mountain is included. Looking down from the sky, it is an extremely huge fortress embedded in the mountain.

The Zhan family is indeed different. Such a large foundation is probably not something that one or two generations can work hard.

Xiao Han was a guest invited by the Zhan family, so he naturally wanted to welcome the old house of Zhan family. Although the Zhan family was in the Long Island waters thousands of miles away, the human etiquette and rules were very particular. Although Qi San's identity was not low, he was not qualified to let the Zhan family open the middle door and welcome it with a big gift. He just opened the second side door on the left side of the gate. Zhan Jiang was very funny and easy-going, without the arrogance of the children of aristocratic families. Along the way, he explained the customs and customs of Zhan family island to Xiao Han, and there were some taboo things to pay attention to. Not all the Zhan family members wanted Zhan Jiang to be so easy to talk to.

The Zhan family’s old house prepared a very quiet yard for Xiao Han and Sanniang. The Zhan family seemed to have learned about Qi San’s preferences in advance and did not like the excitement. Apart from them, there were only four girls.

"Brother Qi, just give me instructions if you have anything to do. If they can't make the decision, they can just ask someone to come to me." Zhan Jiang said with his fists after settling Xiao Han and Sanniang.

"Brother Zhan, you are welcome. I am grateful that Qi is lucky enough to visit Zhan's house." Xiao Han replied with his fists.

"Then Brother Qi and his wife will rest first. In the future, the head of the family will hold a banquet to entertain Brother Qi and the other seven distinguished guests." Zhan Jiang said.

"Thank you for your kindness!" Xiao Han quickly thanked.

"Brother Qi, please give me a promise, it's time for me to report." Zhan Jiang said goodbye and left the courtyard.

The four maids were greeted by Sanniang. He didn't need to do such trivial matters. Everything in the courtyard was new except for furniture. It seemed that the Zhan family really treated eight of them as VIPs!

"Grandpa Third, I have already taken back the person and arranged it in the 33rd courtyard on the east side." Zhan Jiang lowered his head slightly and stood in front of Zhan Xiaoci.

Although Zhan Xiaoci didn't dare to breathe loudly in front of Zhan Qingcheng, once Zhan Qingcheng was not around, his majesty as the head of the Zhan family was that the Zhan family didn't dare to have any presumptuousness in front of him.

"What do you think of these Qi and the other two?" Zhan Xiaoci asked.

"I'm a little arrogant, but it's not difficult to get along with, but he doesn't seem to be keen on power, fame and fortune, but he looks like a hermit." Zhan Jiang replied truthfully.

"Herde?" Zhan Xiaoci was stunned and laughed quickly, "Xiao Jiang, you have asked me a problem!"

"Grandpa San, I don't understand what you mean?" Zhan Jiang said in surprise.

"All those who are capable are arrogant because of their talent. Qi Sancai is already a master of the middle god level after a thousand years of age. It is not impossible to reach the upper god level in the future. Such a person must be the mainstay in the future of Zhantang, but he is alone and has almost no support from anyone. Therefore, although he is capable and powerful, he is just a mere Xuanmen guardian. He lives a tight life with the offering of a mere million gold coins in Xuanmen every year. Do you think he is willing in his heart?" Zhan Xiaoci smiled.

"Grandpa San means that this Qi San can be used by my Zhan family?" If Zhan Jiang didn't understand at this time, he would not deserve to be called the elite child of the Zhan family.

"It's hard to say now. Qi San can tolerate loneliness that ordinary people cannot, and his mind is much stronger than some people who seem smart on the surface." Zhan Xiaoci said.

"Maybe he is really a person with a weak mind?" Zhan Jiang suddenly said.

"Xiao Jiang, you secretly convey a message to these eight people, saying that Jun Chengwu will leave the position of the Master of Xuanmen and set another area, and Xuanmen needs to choose another master and a deputy master. These two positions will be produced among the eight of them!" Zhan Xiaoci smiled strangely.

"Grandpa San, don't you want them to have internal strife?" Zhan Jiang said in surprise.

"What I want is this effect. If Qi San is unwilling to be a guardian forever, this time it will be an opportunity for him. If he does not fight, it means he is really indifferent to fame and fortune. Such a person is neither good nor bad for me, the Zhan family. If he fights, it means he is unwilling to accept it. Joining him is really talented. If you use it for me, why not push him? " Zhan Xiaoci smiled.

"Grandpa San, you are so clever!" Zhan Jiang flattered.

"Okay, you go and do it. Remember, tell them that everyone has a chance. Even if it is from the servant camp, the sect leader cannot do it, and the deputy sect leader still has a chance!" Zhan Xiaoci said with a smile.

"Three Grandpa, tall, too high!" Zhan Jiang stretched out his thumb and said sincerely.

Zhan Jiang's movements were very fast, less than two hours. The news that Zhan Tang planned to choose one sect leader and deputy sect leader among the eight invited people had reached the ears of the eight people.

Soon, some of the eight people began to flee, and three or two gathered together to conspire to discuss something.

Zhan Jiang came to inform Xiao Han in person to see Xiao Han’s reaction with his own eyes. Who knew that Xiao Han was extremely calm and ordered Sanniang to brew a pot of good tea. He chatted with him all the time, just not mentioning the sect leader and the deputy sect leader!

Zhan Jiang was so depressed that he had never seen such an indifferent person to power. He was hundreds of years older than Qi San, so how could he be so calm?

Could it be that he really doesn't dare to be interested in power at all?

Xiao Han was not indifferent, but was amused. He was actually involved in the power struggle within the Zhantang Xuanmen. It seemed that he was quite valued and had the possibility of progress!

He didn't know what choice he would make if it was Qi San, but he had to consider it carefully. Is this considered a reward for merit?

Although he secretly helped Jun Chengwu with his hands and feet in the killing of fire Qianxun, he was confident that outsiders could not understand it except for the fact that his own women on the Piaotianwenwenzi would understand it later.

Therefore, this is obviously not a reward for merit. So this is the Zhan family deliberately testing the eight of them. Obviously, in the Xuanmen, the eight of them are the eight with the strongest cultivation level in Jun Chengwu. The Zhan family wants to know which of them are loyal to the Zhan family, who are loyal to the dragon clan, and which of them are neutral.

However, although this reason can be explained, it is much thinner. The Zhan family controls Xuanmen, how can they not know who are loyal to them?

Why bother trying your best to come up with this?

Xiao Han never thought that the Zhan family came for him after doing this, which was quite a bit fascinating to the authorities.

Xiao Han asked himself that he had not revealed any flaws and made people suspicious, so he didn't think about it from the beginning. However, since the Zhan family made a move, he just wanted to deal with it carefully. Anyway, he didn't come for the leader of the Xuanmen Sect. If he hadn't wanted to conceal Huo Miao's death, he would have been eager to leave Zhan family island now!

"Grandpa Third, I..." Zhan Jiang stood in front of Zhan Xiaoci in frustration.

"Xiao Jiang, what's wrong? The matter is screwed up?" Zhan Xiaoci said in surprise.

"Is this the reason? I secretly revealed my meaning to Qi San. Who knew that he had no reaction at all. Instead, he invited me to taste tea and then rambled. It made me drink a lot of tea." Zhan Jiang said with a wry smile.

"You, you seem frigid when doing things. Who told you to run over in person? At most, you can give one or two people a hint, and then hide in secret to see their reactions." Zhan Xiaoci said in a tone of regret, "It's really not enough to succeed, but it's more than enough to fail!"

"Grandpa Third, I was wrong!" Zhan Jiang heard Zhan Xiaoci's tone was not good, so he was so scared that he quickly admitted his mistake.

"Forget it, it's good, so just say it clearly. Let's choose between them, and the competition determines the winner and loser!" Zhan Xiaoci stomped back and forth in the study several times, gritted his teeth, and made a clear mind.

"Grandpa San, this..."

"Looking at it, there is nothing you have to do here. Let's go down. I'll go to the ancestral hall and listen to the instructions of his father!" Although Zhan Xiaoci made a decision, he had not issued an order after all. Such a big thing, especially at this juncture, it's still a subtle opinion of the old man.

Through this test, Xiao Han despised the head of the Zhan family from the bottom of his heart, invited everyone to the house, and was also playing with such a small mind, so he was too slim!

There was a rare time when there was a little calmness. Xiao Han was lazy and lay on the free chair. Sanniang served him, peeled the crystal grapes, picked out the gourds, and then delivered them to his mouth one by one. This day was just for a god, and it would not be replaced!

This is Zhanjia Island, the old master of the Zhanjia house, and the ancestor of the Zhanjia family, the master of Zhantang, even the dragon clan dare not provoke him easily!

"Don't always peel it for me, Sanniang, you're eating it too. It's not that I have a mouth alone!" Xiao Han said as Sanniang kept peeling it for me to eat, but he didn't eat a single one.

"Thank you, Brother San." Sanniang smiled sweetly.

"What are you thanking? You can eat the rest. If you can't eat it, let's chill it up and eat it tomorrow!" Xiao Han smiled slightly.

The women of the Tianhu clan are not that scary. In fact, as long as they conquer her, the women of the Tianhu clan will obey their men and will never be jealous!

Zhan Family Ancestral Hall, Zhan Qingcheng silently listened to Zhan Xiaoci's report, and then said: "You did this matter too hasty, which will make outsiders think that my Zhan Family deliberately provoked an internal fight in the Xuanmen."

"Father, the news has spread now. If it is taken back now, it will have a huge impact on my prestige of the Zhan family." Zhan Xiaoci said.

"The method you mentioned is too direct. Once the example of Xuanmen is opened, will this method be used to choose the master of the four sects in the future?" Zhan Qingcheng asked back.

"It was the child who was too anxious and his thoughts were not comprehensive." Zhan Xiaoci hurriedly admitted his mistake.

"Xiao Wu is still the sect leader now. Are you listening to her opinions when choosing the sect leader in Xuanmen?" Zhan Qingcheng said.

"I'm negligent, so I'll go find Xiao Wu now." Zhan Xiaoci suddenly realized that power can easily make people lose themselves. Zhan Xiaoci is not the leader of the hall, but has already shown a hint of arbitrary behavior. This is not good, especially for an organization that has been established for tens of thousands of years. This kind of arbitrary behavior can easily cause disgust among the people below.

Although Jun Chengwu, the leader of the Xuanmen Sect, did not have the right to decide, but bypassed her and directly decided on the candidate, would she still take her, the former Xuanmen Sect leader, seriously? Especially even if Jun Chengwu is lazy, there are at least a few close friends in the Xuanmen, otherwise how could she control the huge Xuanmen?

With three helpers, Jun Chengwu can ignore the future of other people in Xuanmen, but her subordinates will take care of her. Otherwise, who would be willing to do things under her in the future? Even the future of her subordinates will not be able to protect her future. Is such a person worth following?

After taking revenge, Jun Chengwu's mood was very relaxed, and his mental cultivation was growing rapidly. In just two days, when he saw Jun Chengwu again, Zhan Xiaoci had already felt that there had been a huge change in her body.

"Xiao Wu, you have changed." Zhan Xiaoci said in surprise.

"My third uncle has always been to the Three Treasures Palace for no reason and comes to find Xiao Wu. Do you need Xiao Wu to help if you have something to do?" Jun Chengwu said calmly.

In the Zhan family, except Zhan Qingcheng, Jun Chengwu did not take anyone to heart, including the third uncle in front of him, the head of the Zhan family.

"Xiao Wu, my third uncle apologizes to you." Zhan Xiaoci knew the weight in Jun Chengwu's heart, and dared not take it as an elder.

"My third uncle didn't do anything to be sorry to Xiao Wu, how could he apologize?" Jun Chengwu said in a daze.

"My third uncle decided on the candidate for the leader of the Xuanmen without authorization, and did not discuss it with Xiao Wu, so he came to apologize to you." Zhan Xiaoci said.

Jun Chengwu frowned: "I don't care about the owner of Xuanmen Sect, this matter is not my responsibility, my third uncle just makes his own decision."

"Xiao Wu, after all, you are still the leader of the Xuan Sect now. The third uncle should listen to your opinions." Zhan Xiaoci said.

"I don't care much about Xuanmen's affairs. My third uncle asked me, I can't give you any advice," said Jun Chengwu.

"No matter what, my third uncle is too hasty in this matter." Zhan Xiaoci said.

"Okay, third uncle, who will do it? It has nothing to do with me. As for how the third uncles arrange it, it is your business, I don't care." Jun Chengwu interrupted Zhan Xiaoci and said.

"Xiao Wu, you are the next deputy hall master. How can you ignore this matter?" Zhan Xiaoci said anxiously.

"Stern uncle, I said that I don't want to be the deputy hall master. Let my cousin be the deputy hall master. She is more suitable than me." Jun Chengwu was unintentional and powerful. In her opinion, the intrigue was really not her. If she really wanted her to be the deputy hall master, she would be suffocated to death!

"Xiao Wu, this deputy hall master of Zhan Hall, do you think anyone else can be the one who wants to be?" Zhan Qingcheng's figure appeared in front of Jun Chengwu, with a solemn expression on his face, "Xiao Yu's energy is too small. Being a Tianmen Sect Master is already barely enough. If he is allowed to be the deputy hall master, then he would not destroy the Zhan family's politeness to others completely?"

"Xiao Wu, you, the leader of the Xuanmen, are also very good. The sect has been in order for so many years, and the income has been rising year by year. You should be able to be the leader of the Xuanmen, and you should be a deputy leader." Zhan Xiaoci saw that the old man had come forward, and immediately added firewood to raise his salary.

"But I have been practicing most of the years. Most of the matters in Xuanmen are the deputy sect leader Qi Fengnian. I rarely go to the Xuanmen headquarters every year. I can't even recognize the guardians of Xuanmen." Jun Chengwu's face turned slightly red. The leader of Xuanmen was purely a hand-off manager, which was even more outrageous than Xiao Han, the big hand-off manager.

"Ah!" Zhan Xiaoci opened his mouth wide in surprise.

"Xiao Wu, all these grandfathers know that Qi Fengnian is indeed a talent, but he is from the servant camp. The masters of Xuanmen in all dynasties have been controlled by Zhan Tang. Even if they are not from my Zhan family, they will not be given to the people of the servant camp. This is a rule for thousands of years. So even if Qi Fengnian is outstanding, he can only be promoted to the elder of Zhan Tang, and the master will not be able to do it." Zhan Qingcheng said.

"Grandpa, actually, I didn't mean to recommend Qi Fengnian as the sect leader. I mean I don't have the ability to be the deputy sect leader. If you hadn't forced me to be the sect leader of the Xuanmen, I really wouldn't be the sect leader." Jun Chengwu said.

"Father, why not let Xiao Wu be the leader of the Xuanmen Sect? Find some capable people to stop and help her. It doesn't matter if Xiao Wu is the deputy leader!" Zhan Xiaoci suggested.

"No, Xiao Wu can do this as the deputy hall master. With our support, it's not a big problem. But after three thousand years, if you retreat, Xiao Wu will definitely take over the battle hall. Will she still do this at that time?" Zhan Qingcheng said.

"Aren't we looking for a husband for Xiao Wu, if..."
