Silence Valkyrie

Chapter 502
The servants and maids walking around in the Qinchun Garden were all extremely cautious, waking up 12 points of energy to do things, lest they make the slightest mistake.

Today, Zhang Clan's regular elder meeting is held here. During this period of time, Zhang Clan's two short-lived ancestors have been retreating, hoping to make a breakthrough at the last moment, as long as they can advance to the next level A small realm can increase a lot of lifespan.

In addition to these two, there is also an ancestor with a little more longevity who suddenly realized something and entered the retreat.

Therefore, Zhang Clan's recent high-end combat power is nonexistent.

At a time when the bloody battle on the Holy Demon Battlefield was heating up and the situation in the court was changing, the emptiness of the Zhang Clan was obvious, so the elders of the Zhang Clan restrained their own children and tried not to cause trouble.

However, there are also many powerful enemies who are eager to see, and are constantly testing Zhang's bottom line, waiting for an opportunity to launch a thunderous blow to him.

It can be said that the recent situation of opening up the valve is quite bad.

Today, except for the three ancestors who retreated, all the important figures of the entire Zhang Clan are concentrated in this Qinchun Garden.

In the Humble Administrator's Hall at the north end of the garden, dozens of Zhang Clan elders have been discussing matters for most of the day, and more than a dozen major events in the clan have come to fruition.

Zhang Bangnian sat on the chair with a gloomy face, and it could be seen that he was extremely displeased.

But the former great elder Zhang Bangcheng was sitting opposite him, with a smile on his face, and he didn't have any dissatisfaction with being dismissed from the position of great elder.

"Next, let's discuss the expenses related to the sixth house..." Zhang Bangcheng said.

Before the conversation was over, Zhang Bangnian couldn't bear it and said: "The most important thing for us now is to discuss how to support Jiuyuan City! Jiuyuan City has not received follow-up support for half a month, and it may fall at any time! "

"Jiuyuan City is located in a dangerous place. I didn't expect the demons to use it as a breakthrough. Now it is heavily surrounded. We only have three or five teams around there. It is really weak."

Zhang Bangcheng coughed, and said in a calm manner: "Of course, the old man has ordered them to break through the line of defense regardless of losses, and fully support Nan Ruoli! It's just that they have suffered heavy losses in repeated attacks, and the progress has not been smooth. However, the boss Don't worry too much, even if you can't defend the ability that Nan Ruoli has shown in the past six months, you should have no problem breaking through."

After he finished speaking, he winked, and another elder immediately said: "Everyone, although Jiuyuan City is a defense area assigned by our Clan Zhang, it is only mercenaries inside, and there is no direct line team of Clan Zhang. Therefore, there is no need to expend too much energy to rescue it."

After the elder finished speaking, all the elders agreed.

Zhang Bangnian's face was ashen, and he was full of resentment, but he was helpless.

Nan Ruoli and her subordinates belong to Zhang Bangnian's family, while the other teams of the Zhang Clan around Jiuyuan City belong to Zhang Bangcheng's lineage, so the so-called support is just for show, and it is not appropriate at all. thing.

And although Zhang Bangnian is the lord, he has nothing to do with them under the current circumstances.

Zhang Bangnian suppressed his anger, snorted coldly and said: "Then, let's talk about the fact that the ghosts in the clan colluded with outsiders and betrayed the information of the clan, which caused heavy damage to my caravan. This matter has been verified, and the crime should be punished! I don't know what you guys think?"

Zhang Bangcheng shook his head and said: "In my opinion, this matter involves a lot, and there are too many doubts, and the evidence is a little insufficient. Therefore, this matter needs to be investigated further, and we can discuss it after we have sufficient evidence. Fang Tuo."

Zhang Bangnian slapped the table and shouted angrily: "Zhang Bangcheng, you have turned black and white, and you must whitewash the traitors in the clan. What is your intention? I really don't know?"

Zhang Bangcheng was unmoved, and the smile on his face remained unchanged: "The lord's words are cruel, the old man is just out of caution and fairness, and it's not to stop the investigation. Why do you need to blame him like this?"

Zhang Bangnian smiled coldly, and said sharply: "This matter must be settled at today's meeting, and it cannot be delayed any longer. I hope all the elders will not make mistakes."

Having said that, Zhang Bangnian stood up vigorously and stared at the crowd with a stern expression.

Zhang Bangcheng's complexion also changed, and he stood up against the case, sneering: "Although you are the lord, this is the elders' meeting here, not yours. How to deal with the matter must be decided by the elders."

Seeing that the two were on the verge of breaking out, a group of elders stood up one after another, and each spoke to persuade them. However, among the people's words, the majority were those who agreed with each other or supported Qiangbangcheng, while the elders who were willing to stand on the side of the boss advocated Bangnian is a minority.

Looking at these hypocritical elders, Zhang Bangnian held his breath in his heart, feeling as if he wanted to vomit blood.

Although he is the leader of the family, the real leader in the Zhang family is actually the ancestor who retreated not long ago, and he needs to nod for all important affairs in the family.

Therefore, although Zhang Bangnian is the lord, he is actually just pretending to be a name, and his power is really limited.

And Zhang Bangcheng hooked up with a group of elders in the clan, and received a lot of support. In terms of real power, not only was he not inferior to the clan advocate Bangnian, but in some respects he was even worse.

After the old ancestors who had always been directors retreated, important matters in the family would be discussed by the family elders' meeting, and Zhang Bangcheng had a large number of friends in the elders' meeting, so Zhang Bangnian's situation was even worse.

Now the two are tearing their faces apart at the regular elders meeting. All the elders have their own concerns, and they are also communicating with each other through voice transmission and whispering.

As for the robbery of the Zhang Clan caravan, except for Zhang Bangchang, who was in charge, escaped by chance, the other three caravans were all annihilated. During the investigation, it was found that there was collusion between inside and outside, and the matter was related to some direct descendants of the clan. And these direct descendants are related to a marriage contract.

Therefore, this matter has made the inside of Zhang Valve jumpy and complicated.

The marriage contract in that village is related to Duke Wei's beloved daughter.

Not long ago, Duke Wei announced that he would choose a son-in-law for his beloved daughter. As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a sensation among the young talents in the sanctuary.

At this moment, the Duke of Wei is deeply trusted by the emperor, and his power is also at the height of the sky, and his daughter is born with a beautiful face, and is loved by the Duke of Wei as a jewel in the palm of his hand.

If you can marry her, it is tantamount to reaching the sky in one step, and you will save countless years of struggle. Therefore, even the direct descendants of the four great families will basically not be indifferent.

Zhang Bangcheng also proposed marriage to Wei Guogong for his son Zhang Ji'an. If this can be done, then Zhang Ji'an is very likely to become the first heir of the Zhang Clan, and will become the next Clan Lord in the future.

And in Zhang Bangnian's investigation of Zhang's last caravan accident, Zhang Ji'an was involved, and there were some clues that Zhang Ji'an leaked the whereabouts of the caravan to outsiders.

If convicted of this crime, Zhang Ji'an would not only be unable to propose marriage to Duke Wei, but would also face heavy punishment from his family, which of course Zhang Bangcheng could not accept.

As for Zhang Bangnian, Zhang Ji'an not only leaked family secrets, but also because the matter of choosing a son-in-law might threaten his position as the lord, so he had to be crucified as an inner ghost and beaten to death with a single stick.

This time, Zhang Clan's elders' meeting had been arguing with each other for a whole day, but in the end they broke up unhappy.
