The bright candles shine high, illuminating Chen Ying's front hall brightly and darkly, and the light and shadow float. Under the illumination of the candlelight, the old age spots on Hou Mo Chen Qianhui's face became more and more obvious. Hou Mo Chen Qian Hui

The faces of Hou Mo, Chen Qianhui and Chen Ying in the hall were not very good. The two of them were thinking about their own thoughts.

Hou Mo Chen Qianhui's heart is actually very heavy, as a long house, his uncle Hou Mo Chen Rui's five sons have died one after another, and there are no children and grandchildren. Only Chen Ying is left, if Chen Ying is unwilling to recognize his ancestors and return to his ancestors, then Hou Mo Chen's family will almost be cut off. Originally, Hou Mo Chen Qianhui had two sons, but one of his sons died in the battle of Sashui in Goguryeo, and the other died in Lingnan, and it was the biggest tragedy in the world for the white-haired people to send the black-haired people, but even if Hou Mo Chen Qianhui was in good health, he would not be able to give birth to a son now.

If there is no Chen Ying, the Hou Mo Chen family will be cut off.

Chen Ying's concerns are actually very simple, he knows that the rules of the gate valve are big, and he is afraid that there are a few elders on his head, if he points fingers at him, he doesn't have to do anything, and he will stage the Three Kingdoms Killing in the family every day.

In fact, like the state, the gate valve has also gone through a bloody struggle in the selection of heirs, and it cannot be solved by a single sentence. If Chen Ying also recognizes the sect and returns to the sect, it is equivalent to accepting the Hou Mo Chen Qian Association and digging a big pit for him.

The family gate lords all have privileges, not only tax exemption, but also exemption from forced labor, relying on the privilege of tax exemption and exemption from military service, you can quickly accumulate wealth.

At the beginning of the founding of the country, there were fewer gate valves, less land ownership, and a large number of yeoman farmers paid taxes. There will be no financial crisis in the imperial court, but after the peaceful days have passed for a long time, the clan lords will use their power to accumulate more and more land in their names, and every time there is a natural disaster or a man-made disaster, they rely on the money and grain in their hands to make usury, or forcibly take it, or seize it, and turn more and more homesteaders into homeless people or tenants and shady households.

Taxes and labor that should have been paid by them were transferred to the powerless people. When those people could not pay taxes and went bankrupt and had to sell their land, these people who originally belonged to the imperial court and should provide taxes for the imperial court became the powerful subordinates of the family, which was equivalent to cutting the meat on the thighs to subsidize the arms. The rapid increase in the wealth of the family and the bankruptcy of the people were basically synchronized. People are sick when they do this. The world is like this, isn't it also sick?

In fact, the relationship between the imperial court and the branches of the gate valve is interdependent. Whenever the imperial court wanted to weaken the gate valve and the clan, the gate valve and the clan would also rebel, which was the real reason for the fall of the Sui Dynasty.

Even if the Hou Mo Chen clan has declined, but the emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, the resources possessed by the Hou Mo Chen clan can still exceed Chen Ying's imagination.

At this moment, Hou Mo Chen Qian suddenly said: "Gorou, do you know who is the person I admire the most in this world?" โ€

"I don't know!" Chen Ying is not a roundworm in Hou Mo Chen Qian's stomach, how can he guess what he thinks in his heart.

Hou Mo Chen Qian said: "The person I admire the most is Emperor Wei Wu!" โ€

"Cao Cao?"

Hou Mo Chen Qian said: "No! โ€

"It's not Cao Cao, who is still Emperor Wei Wu?" Chen Ying naturally knew that there were many dynasties with Wei as the name of the country in history, but they were all small courts in a corner of peace. Except for Cao Cao, Chen Ying really couldn't think of anyone who was still called Emperor Wu of Wei.

Looking at Chen Ying's puzzled gaze, Hou Mo Chen Qian said: "During the period of the parallel establishment of the north and the south, the emperor of the Wei State, Ran Min. Although Ran Wei Liguo is short, Ran Min is the person I admire the most, followed by Ran Min's father, Wei Gaozu Ran Zhan. When Emperor Ran Long of Wei died, Ran Zhan was only twelve years old, and Ran Zhan led the Ran beggar army to join Shile, and was promoted to the general of Zuo Jichu and the Marquis of Xihua. Later, Ran Zhan died in battle, and his son Ran Min was only eight years old at the time......"

Chen Ying was quite speechless. He naturally knew what Hou Mo Chen Qian was thinking, but he really didn't want to agree.

Seeing that Chen Ying still didn't say anything, Hou Mo Chen Qian said: "I know this news, Wulang, you will find it difficult to accept it for a while, but you have to remember that you have the blood of Hou Mo Chen ...... on your body."

After speaking, Hou Mo Chen Qian will take a step and leave. However, at this moment, a commotion sounded in the doorway. When Chen Ying heard Li Daozhen's voice, his face changed slightly.

Although Li Daozhen is good, she is only a woman, Hou Mo Chen Qian will stay at the door, but she is not a weak chicken, once she fights, it is not good to hurt anyone.

Chen Ying hurriedly ran to the door, and Yu Qing followed closely behind Chen Ying after getting permission from Hou Mo Chen Qianhui.

When Chen Ying came to the door, in fact, the battle had already begun.

The Mo knife in Li Daozhen's hand is far heavier than an ordinary knife, of course, because of its weight, the lethality is even more terrifying. Li Daozhen held the Mo knife in both hands, the knife flashed, and slashed towards a servant.

However, at this moment, sixteen people with knives on the right moved neatly, four of them came out to block with knives, and four of them detoured behind Li Daozhen, ready to attack, and there were also four people who took out their knives like the wind, directly attacking Li Daozhen's vital point in front of him.

Li Daozhen is also a master of the arts, ignoring the attacks in front of him and behind him, the Mo knife in his hand suddenly turned into a dazzling white light, and those few servants saw the state, and they didn't even have time to dodge, only to hear a chaotic sound of clanging.

The horizontal knives in the hands of the four servants were cut off in response, but the castration of the Mo knife in Li Daozhen's hands was still unabated, and those servants had to subconsciously dodge, and the offensive they had originally prepared was also relieved.

Zhong Hu was shocked into a cold sweat from his heart, and Li Daozhen missed with one blow, but he was furious. The Mo knife in her hand was raised again, and she rotated three hundred and sixty times in a circle, only to see the Mo knife cut into a white light, and with the piercing golden sound, it crackled, and the broken knife fell to the ground.

"Stop!"

Li Daozhen didn't hurt anyone with two blows, so she was really in a hurry. Stride forward, one plan and slash sideways.

At this time, Hu Cong no longer had a blade, and they were swept away by the Mo knife, I am afraid that they would only be broken as recorded in the history books.

At this moment, Yu Qing, who was standing behind Chen Ying, suddenly jumped like a big bird, and grabbed the white light in Li Daozhen's hand with his bony big hand.

Chen Ying was taken aback when he saw Yu Qing's fate, after all, Yu Qing was an old man who was nearly sixty years old, and he was killed by Li Daozhen, and he didn't even have a local complaint. Chen Yingda yelled hurriedly: "I have something to say, stop, stop fighting!" โ€

A surprising scene occurred, and the white light disappeared. Yu Qing and Li Daozhen froze there, motionless, Yu Qing reached out and grabbed the back of the Mo knife, Li Daozhen pulled back hard, but unfortunately the Mo knife did not move at all.

At the same time as Yu Qing made a move, Hu on the left side pulled out two short spears from behind, but these two short spears were made of stainless steel throughout, and I don't know what mechanism was used on them, but the two were combined together to form a spear about one zhang and two feet long, sixteen spears pointed at Li Daozhen, Li Daozhen looked at the spears around him, and then looked at Chen Ying.

Anxious and angry, Li Daozhen threw down the Mo knife and rushed towards Chen Ying, with a crying tone in her tone: "You all bully me!" โ€

"The conscience of heaven and earth!" Chen Ying couldn't cry or laugh: "Who dares to bully you"

"It's you!"

Chen Ying knew a truth when he was in the future. Don't quarrel with women, there's no point in arguing or losing.

Relatively speaking, Chen Ying would rather face Li Daozhen than Hou Mo Chen Qianhui.

However, Hou Mo Chen Qianhui played a scoundrel and said to the servants beside him: "You guys, stay by Wulang's side!" โ€œ
