Chapter 331 Undercurrent

In the next few days, the entire King Capital of Daqi was plunged into turmoil.

After Qin Batian's strong return, he immediately abolished Qin Yuanxiong's position as deputy head of the family, and then handed over the position of deputy head to Qin Yuanzhi.

As for Qin Yuanxiong, he was punished to be in charge of some small affairs of the family, which meant that he lost his power completely.

And some of the elders of the Qin family have also changed their positions. Some elders of the same generation as Qin Yuanxiong were directly deprived of their elderships and no longer involved in any family affairs. They only need to plant grass and raise flowers every day.

In this regard, many Qin family elders are trembling and dare not speak.

If it was Qin Batian in the past, these elders might have fought hard for it.

But now that Qin Yuanxiong is a half-step Wuzong, who would dare to say nonsense?

Moreover, recalling the horror of Qin Yuechi, and thinking that it was him who agreed to expel Qin Yuechi, these elders were even more frightened, for fear of the other party's retaliation.

The only one who doesn't agree is Zhao Feng.

When she heard the news, she rushed up like a shrew, but was knocked to the ground by Qin Batian angrily, so angry with Zhao Feng that she threatened to go back to her mother's house.

Qin Batian said directly: "if you go back, don't come back."

While making Zhao Feng dumbfounded, he cried miserably, saying that the Qin family only recognized Qin Chen, and did not treat his son Qin Feng as the Qin family.

The people watching were sighed.

But his words made Qin Batian even more angry. If it wasn't for this Zhao Feng, who was messing around, how could his grandson Qin Feng end up like this?

Immediately, he was furious and ordered someone to drag her out, not allowing her to go out.

Knowing this, Zhao Zhen hurriedly came to intercede, but Qin Batian rejected it lukewarm, and even said coldly: "Old family, you should worry about yourself, this time you came to the capital like this. If you make trouble, and deal with my grandson, Zhao Gao may not know how to deal with you, and if you have time to take care of my affairs here, forgive me for not staying."

Then everyone in the Zhao family was driven out of the Qin residence by the disciples of the Qin family.

The Zhao family in Lingnan, after all, is also the top wealthy family in the royal capital, with a high status and extraordinary, but being swept out of the house by the Qin family, they are naturally embarrassed and angry.

However, in the past, they did not dare to deal with the Qin family, but now that they know that Qin Batian is a half-step Wuzong powerhouse, how dare they go wild? He had to hold his breath and leave.

"Your Majesty, what should we do now?"

And the same undercurrent is surging, as well as the Great Qi Palace.

Compared with the Qin family's drastic measures, Zhao Gao was sitting on the throne at this time, his face was depressed, and his regretful bowels were green.

Qin Chen has such talent, Qin Yuechi's cultivation is so high, and Qin Batian has actually broken through to the half-step Wuzong.

Whenever he thinks of this, Zhao Gao is so depressed that he is about to vomit blood.

If I had known that things would turn out like this, killing him would not have given up Qin Chen.

Now the Qin family is dissatisfied with him, and even Zhao Gao felt a little panic in his heart.

Yep, panic.

For so many years, the reason why Zhao Gao suppressed the Qin family was because Qin Batian's exploits were too prominent.

And now, Qin Yuechi's cultivation base is so high, Qin Batian has also broken through the half-step Wuzong, and has a heavy army.

Under the combination of the two, it is not impossible to overthrow his regime in Daqi.

"What to do? What else can I do now?"

Zhao Gao was a little flustered and his face was gloomy.

"Your Majesty, in fact, I persuaded you long ago."

Xiao Zhan sighed aside.

To be honest, when Zhao Gao was about to give up Qin Chen, he was extremely disappointed.

"Are you blaming me?"

Turning his head, Zhao Gao looked fierce, and said angrily.

"His Majesty?"

Xiao Zhan was stunned for a moment, but he did not expect Zhao Gao to speak to him like this.

Zhao Gao also realized his attitude and couldn't help sighing: "Xiao Zhan, don't blame me, I'm really upset right now, if it were the Qin family... ah."

After half a day, Zhao Gao still hadn't said the word 'rebellion'.

"Actually, Your Majesty, there is absolutely no need to worry so much." Xiao Zhan shook his head.

Zhao Gao frowned: "What do you mean?"

"Your Majesty, if the Qin family wants to rebel, do they have to wait until today?" Xiao Zhan sighed and directly challenged the topic.

Looking at Zhao Gao's puzzled expression, Xiao Zhan said: "Dingwu King Qin Batian, controlling the three armies, has not been a matter of a day or two, it has been more than ten years, but you look at his actions over the years, not only guarding The frontier, never return to the capital, so as not to arouse your suspicion, Your Majesty, and at the same time, ordering the children of the Qin family to return to the capital, dismiss important positions in the army, serve as civil ministers, and even disarm and return to the fields, this has already shown his intentions."

"Who knows if he pretended to show me on purpose." Zhao Gao was worried.

"Your Majesty thinks it is necessary for Qin Batian to do this? If the Qin family wanted to rebel, they would have done it a few years ago, how could they wait until now."

Seeing Zhao Gao like this, Xiao Zhan was speechless and couldn't help saying: "Your Majesty, Qin Yuechi's cultivation is not something that can be achieved overnight. If the Qin family really wants to do something, they will definitely do it at that time."

"Your Majesty, think about it, ten years ago, your Majesty, not long after you ascended the throne, your control over the DPRK was definitely not stable, and at that time, several princes were still young and could not control the overall situation. In the past, the Great Wei Kingdom has repeatedly violated our border, resulting in repeated wars on the border."

"If the Qin family wants to rebel, the Qin family only needs to let Qin Yuechi sneak into the palace, kill your majesty, and then put the blame on the Wei Kingdom. At that time, your majesty will die, and several princes will not be able to control the overall situation, and the important task of saving the country will definitely be It still falls into the hands of Qin Batian, who controls the three armies. When the time comes, the Qin family will be regent first and then pro-governor, and no one can stop it."

"But the Qin family didn't do that. Instead, after you ascended the throne, Your Majesty, you repeatedly relinquished power. In the entire Qin family, apart from Qin Batian, who also controls the three armies, other clan members, including Qin Yuanxiong, found positions in the court. Others All of you have become commoners, all of this happened after your enthronement, Your Majesty, and Qin Batian will show you his intentions."

"After so many years, I am a big country of Qi, the weather is good, and the people's hearts desire. Your Majesty has a great reputation in the army and in the hearts of the people. What's more, several princes have also made great achievements. How can the Qin family rebel? Your Majesty, you What do you think?"

Xiao Zhan looked at Zhao Gao and sighed inwardly.

He is a fan of the authorities, so he can't see the situation clearly. Otherwise, with Zhao Gao's ingenuity, it is impossible not to see it.

Hearing this, Zhao Gao fell into deep thought, and gradually, his eyes became clear.

Being able to serve as the head of a country, Zhao Gao is naturally not a foolish person. After thinking about it carefully, he naturally understands what Xiao Zhan said, which is indeed very reasonable.

If the Qin family really wants to rebel, there is no need to cut off their hands and feet like this all these years, and do it for themselves.

On the contrary, he has always been afraid of Qin Batian's military power, and has fallen into the tip of the bull's horn, the more he drills, the tighter he gets.
