Chapter 314 Scholar
And Xie Zhan, who the Zhu brothers wanted to kill, had already woken up.
He is very satisfied with the current chaos in the Southland. It was not in vain that he was suppressed and dragged away from Lu Xihua, and it was not in vain that he let Zuo Anmin surround the Zhu family for three days. Catalyzed by these factors, the situation in the Southland developed in the direction he expected.
Before being taken to prison, the Zhu family father and son shouted loudly that Xie Zhan had set up a trap to harm the Zhu family. Xie Nan also relayed it and informed Xie Zhan.
"Master, what's your reputation?" Xie Nan admired and felt sorry for the head of his family.
"It doesn't matter." Xie Zhan could predict that those people would use words such as cruel, ungrateful, and cruel.
He was cruel and ruthless, and he had no regrets in dealing with the Chen family.
If the Chen family is not eliminated, will they continue to lie on his body and suck blood?
The only reason why the Chen family ended up like this is because they were too greedy.
When Chen Jiaye forced himself to serve the Chen family, he should have thought about this day.
"These people are so abominable!" Xie Nan really hated those people who spoke too much.
Xie Zhan doesn't care about this. What he cares about is that under his leadership, the whole of the South will be destroyed and re-established, and the Xie family will take this opportunity to occupy a position.
It is inevitable to use some low-level means when there is no strength yet and in the stage of primitive accumulation of capital. He is in the early stages of establishing his power and is using some conspiracy tactics that cannot be put on the table. This is very normal.
Xie Zhan doesn't feel ashamed, and his ability and character are not in conflict.
If he is the ultimate victor, he will have a fig leaf to embellish his methods.
If he is the ultimate loser, no matter how flawless his character is, others can still find fault with him.
Is the path to the rise of the six major families clean? Who now remembers their dirty history?
Taking the Dali Dynasty as an example, the original intention of establishing the Songli Kingdom was to seek benefits for all people, but how are the people living now?
Xie Nan asked again, "By the way, head of the family, if the Zhu family and his son expose you to the public like this, will it affect your subsequent plans?"
"No, the Southland is already in chaos. It won't stop easily without a strong enough external influence. In addition, there is no evidence for what the Zhu family and his son said. Everything is just their speculation."
Xie Zhan didn't realize at this time that the Zhu family knew clearly that he was the mastermind behind the scenes. He only felt that the Zhu family hated him as the executor. Now that Chen Jiaye and others were dead, they wanted to use him as a backing.
But it doesn't matter, he has a shield.
Xie Zhan ordered, "Let the public opinion out and put everything on Chen Jiaye."
In this way, he is not a decision-maker, but just a person responsible for doing things. Between the virtual and the real, he can still hide for a while. This is enough for a while.
At this time, the sound of pebbles falling to the ground was heard outside the window, and Xie Zhan and Xie Nan stopped talking.
Not long after, Chen Qiye and his men pushed the door open and came in.
As soon as he came in, he saw Xie Zhan's tribe waiting for him to take medicine.
"Are you awake?"
"Well, Master Qi is here?" Xie Zhan handed the bowl to Xie Nan.
Xie Nan lowered his head slightly and went out carrying a medicine bowl.
Chen Qiye is now the temporary person in charge of the Chen family, and it was he and Mrs. Chen who decided to retaliate against the Lu family.
Zhu Changnian's words forced him to take some time out of his busy schedule to visit Xie Zhan.
When he saw Xie Zhan at this time, he asked straight to the point what Zhu Changnian had accused him of.
"What Zhu Changnian said is correct. It was indeed a plan discussed between the family head and me." After saying this, Xie Zhan sighed deeply, "It's a pity that the family head couldn't see it."
Very few people knew about the implementation of this plan, no more than five people, and all five people died in the flash flood.
When Chen Qiye heard what he said, he didn't deny it, but no longer doubted him. He subconsciously felt that the clan leader had made the final decision on the plan, and Xie Zhan was just the one responsible for its execution.
At this time, the steward outside the Chen family came over. Chen Qiye told him to have a good rest and left.
Now that the Chen family and the Lu family are fighting fiercely, he is really busy.
After Xie Zhan asked people to let the rumors out, the public sentiment in the South was boiling.
"Don't think too much of Xie Zhan. To Chen Jiaye, Xie Zhan is, at best, a son-in-law. In fact, he is just a dog under Chen Jiaye."
"The person who designed the Zhu family was Chen Jiaye! However, Chen Jiaye and his 20 or 30 clan members died in the flash flood. It is also sad."
"Chen Jiaye used tricks to bring down the Zhu family, but he died violently. This means that evil people will have their own destiny!"
"What about Lu Xihua, who killed so many lives in the Chen family?"
"None of these are good things! It's true that evil people will be punished by evil people!"
Xie Zhan is also paying attention to the development of public opinion, and he is satisfied with the results.
"This public opinion method is really easy to use." No wonder the Lu family and his daughter like to use it. It has been tried and tested repeatedly.
A hidden villa somewhere in the Southland
"Why are you so afraid of death?" Ji Wuyin was speechless. Ever since the imperial envoy showed up at Zhu's Mansion yesterday, the old man had strongly demanded to leave the mansion and asked him to find a secret place for them to hide.
Xue Xu: "Be careful when sailing the ship that lasts ten thousand years."
"When you lived in Ji Mansion before, nothing happened?" Ji Wuyin felt that he was a little too cautious and was startled.
Xue Xu said, "It is worn for a while."
As soon as the Zhu family collapsed, Xie Zhan would check and accept the results at any time. He learned from the Sixth Madam that Xie Zhan was very smart and he had to be on guard.
Forget it, the move has already been made, Ji Wuyin is too lazy to dwell on this issue.
Thinking about the current situation, Ji Wuyin shook his head and said, "Zhu Changnian's thoughts are in vain."
Xue Xu and Ji Wuyin have been closely following the development of the entire situation.
Zhu Changnian's words should have alerted all smart people who heard them. Especially the heads of other noble families.
But in fact, it had little effect.
Xue Xu said, "Someone is manipulating the public opinion in your southern land." He was familiar with this set of tricks. The Sixth Madam and Lord Lu were too good at making public opinion. He also studied it, so he saw at a glance that someone was manipulating public opinion.
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Xie Zhan is a smart learner! Qin Sheng curled his lips, "No need to guess, this must be Xie Zhan's trick!" They all learned from Lili!
Xue Xu: This Xie Zhan, he really uses it. As long as he can use it, he will learn and use it, which is also very shameless.
