Chapter 117 The tea is poisonous

As for Jiang He on the side, he couldn't control his joy at this time. If the envoy from the master's family was not still present, I am afraid he would have jumped up and gloated over the misfortune.

Only Jiang Shan stood beside him calmly, with no expression on his face, as if Xu Yin's misfortune had nothing to do with him.

Su Chen watched Jiang Shan's performance with cold eyes, and had a hunch that the arrival of the master's envoy today might not be as simple as asking for guilt or condemning him.

After the envoy finished recording it in the record book, he said, "Okay, let's get to the point. Today, the envoy came here not mainly for the separation of your family, but for another important matter."

After hearing this, everyone present cheered up, knowing that the highlight of the day was coming.

"This envoy heard that the seal of the head of the Jiang family in Qinghe City has been lost?"

The messenger asked.

"Replying to the messenger, this is indeed the case."

Jiang Shan lowered his head slightly and replied respectfully, "Since the death of the previous head of the family ten years ago, no one knows the whereabouts of the big seal of the head of the family. We have searched all possible places and still can't find it. So the Jiang family in Qinghe City The position of the head of the family has always been vacant, and even now that the family has been divided, Beijiang Mansion still has no head of the family. "

"Well, this is exactly what this envoy is here for. The family leader's seal has been lost. This is a big deal. We can't just muddle along like this."

"What's more, the seals of the family masters of each branch are specially made by the master's family. If they are left outside like this and are obtained by someone with ulterior motives, my master's family's prestige will be reduced."

The envoy said, "So, the reason why this envoy is here is to urge you. If there are any clues about the family master's seal, you must find the family master's seal as soon as possible."

"Report to the envoy!"

Jiang He immediately said, "I have something to say about the clues about the patriarch's seal!"

"Oh? Do you have any clues about the master's seal?"

the messenger asked.

"not me."

Jiang He shook his head and pointed at Su Chen, "It's him, Su Chen!"

"What I want to say is that he obviously has clues to the family master's seal, but he just hasn't told us the clues!"

"Moreover, this son is not the son of our Jiang family at all, but an outsider. I can even reasonably suspect that this son has evil intentions towards our position as the head of the Beijiang Mansion. Otherwise, why would he not tell us the clues about the head of the family? "Jiang He accused angrily.

"Really?"

The messenger's eyes fell on Su Chen, "Your name is Su Chen? Why are you at the Jiang family?"

Xu Yin quickly said: "Report to the messenger, Xiaochen is my nephew, not an outsider. Moreover, what Jiang He said is untrue. Xiaochen doesn't even know where the master's seal is."

Jiang He sneered: "Second sister-in-law, you are really good at telling lies with your eyes open. You saw it last time. As a junior who has never been to the Jiang family before, he could actually draw the head of the family who disappeared ten years ago. The details of the big seal’s appearance, isn’t this the ironclad evidence that he has seen the family master’s big seal before?”

"Whether you've seen it or not doesn't mean anything."

Xu Yin tried hard to protect Su Chen, "Our Nanjiang Mansion has now been separated and exists independently of Beijiang Mansion. The position of the head of the Beijiang Mansion has nothing to do with us. What does Xiao Chen have if he wants the seal of the head of the family? use?"

"It is precisely because of this that I said that your Nanjiang Mansion has evil intentions towards our position as the head of the Beijiang Mansion. Do you want to find an opportunity to kick me and my eldest brother out with the family head's seal? Then you can legitimately occupy Beijiang Mansion and unify the Northern and Southern Jiang families!"

Jiang He stared.

"That's nonsense!"

Xu Yin was also angry. If she or Su Chen really had this kind of intention, why bother to split up the family in the first place? Wouldn't it be better to just usurp the position of the head of the family before the family was divided.

"If you want to prove your innocence, then please tell me the location of the family master's seal."

Jiang He snorted coldly.

"I told you I don't know where the family master's seal is. If I knew, I would have told you already. Why wait until today!"

Xu Yin frowned.

"You don't know, doesn't the kid behind you know either?"

Jiang He glanced at Su Chen and sneered, "The envoy from the master's family is here today. I advise you that it is best not to play any tricks and tell the clues about the master's seal honestly. Otherwise, if the envoy Long Yan is angry, don't I’m sorry I didn’t warn you.”

Xu Yin was about to say something when she heard the envoy speak slowly: "Since there is such a thing, I would like to express my position here. Anyone who deliberately conceals the clues about the master's seal belongs to the Jiang family." enemy."

"If anyone has any clues about the Patriarch's seal, it's best to tell them immediately to avoid harming others or yourself."

The messenger's voice was not high, but there was a chilling and oppressive feeling in his words. If you are a weak-minded person, you may be unable to help but succumb to this pressure.

Xu Yin glanced at Su Chen and saw Su Chen shaking his head at her. She looked directly into the messenger's eyes without any fear and said, "We don't know where the family master's seal is."

"Are you sure you don't know?" the messenger asked calmly.

Xu Yin shook her head firmly and said, "I don't know."

At the same time, Xu Yin also felt a little strange in her heart. Why was the envoy of the master so concerned about finding the seal of the master? Although he said that the reason was that the family leader's seal was specially made for the family, he was afraid that if it fell into the hands of someone with ulterior motives, the family's prestige would be ruined.

However, just such a reason does not seem to be enough for the envoy to be so enthusiastic.

The envoy stared at Xu Yin without saying a word. For a moment, the atmosphere seemed extremely serious. The envoy's expression gave everyone in the hall a chill that was coming from a storm. The atmosphere in the entire hall seemed to have solidified at this moment.

However, after a while, the messenger did not have an attack on the spot as everyone expected, but just said lightly: "Drink tea."

With that said, the messenger took the lead in picking up the tea cup on the table and took a sip.

Everyone present secretly breathed a sigh of relief. This messenger was really moody. Looking at his expression just now, they thought a storm was coming soon.

In the end, it was just a false alarm. With everyone relaxed, they picked up the tea at hand and drank it.

Jiang Shan also took a sip of his own tea. From the corner of his eye, he saw Xu Yin not moving and said casually, "Second brother and sister, why didn't you drink?"

Xu Yin was stunned and didn't think much. Seeing that everyone else was drinking, she took the teacup and put it to her mouth.

Snapped--

At this moment, a burst of true energy surged out, shattering the tea cup in Xu Yin's hand. The tea splashed all over the floor, and Xu Yin's skirt was also wet.

Suddenly, an elder from the Beijiang Mansion stood up and angrily shouted: "Su Chen, what are you doing? How can you be so rude in front of the master's envoy?"

——The person who broke the tea cup was Su Chen.

"Xiao Chen!" Xu Yin was also stunned, not understanding why Su Chen suddenly did this.

"The tea is poisonous!" Su Chen said directly.
