613 The Fall of the Horse(1/2)
The elders of the Qiao family came to visit in person, and naturally the elders of the Ling family also came out.
The great elder held the Buddhist beads and said calmly, "Yes, I can testify that Chonglou and I have always been together."
Although he didn't like Jiang Huaping, he was dissatisfied with Ling Zhonglou because of it.
But it is impossible to face outsiders.
As for slapping Patriarch Qiao, the elder just turned a blind eye and passed it by.
After all, Jiang Ran was injured like that. As a father, Ling Zhonglou couldn't help but get angry.
"If you didn't do it, wouldn't anyone else do it?" Elder Qiao San sneered, "Your family, Ling Mianxi and Jiang Ran have the best relationship, she must have done it!"
"Elder Qiao San, what you said is wrong again." Ling Zhonglou said calmly, "Although Xiaomian is a genius, she has also practiced ancient martial arts for more than sixty years."
"Tell me, why did she knock down both Qiao Dong and Qiao Ting by herself?"
Elder Qiao San retorted: "Why not? Ling Mianxi has so many clever ideas, who knows what she did?"
He was very tough: "I don't care about anything else, I just want an explanation today!"
On the side, Ling Dongqing smiled and tutted: "Fourth brother, I think what Elder Qiao San said is right. If you don't take action, you will have many guards under your command, right?"
"You still have two personal bodyguards who are at the level of ancient martial arts masters. Why can't you take action?"
After saying that, Ling Dongqing turned around and said: "Elder, our Ling family has never taken sides. Many big families are eyeing him. Ling Zhonglou is still deliberately causing war at this moment. Do you think he is still worthy of sitting on the position of the head of the family?
"
His voice was stern: "Back then, when he married an ordinary person, many families criticized our Ling family. Now that something like this has happened again, he must be removed from his position as the head of the family!"
The great elder frowned and was about to speak when his arm was suddenly hugged.
Ling Mianxi blinked and began to complain: "Grandpa, he slandered me. I was at the Ling family yesterday."
The Great Elder's eyes suddenly became sharp: "You said it was Xiaomian who did it, do you have evidence?"
"This..." Elder Qiao San was at a loss for words and was very angry, "Do you think our Qiao family is just like your Ling family, pressing cameras everywhere?"
Ying Zijin was drinking tea quietly at the side, with a calm expression and no reaction.
Elder Qiao San didn't think about other people at all and was furious.
Ling Zhonglou spoke again: "What a coincidence, none of my guards left the Ling family yesterday. Two personal guards were protecting Xiao Ran, and there are people who can testify.
Hearing this, Ling Dongqing's eyes turned sinister.
He could conclude that the person who sneaked into Qiao's house must be from Ling Zhonglou.
Otherwise, how could Ling Zhonglou prepare in advance?
"Okay, you just wait!" Elder Qiao San left angrily, "I will pass the matter to the Fan family right now. Wait, if you provoke the Qiao family, your Ling family will not have an easy time either."
Ling Dongqing rolled her eyes and was about to speak, but Ling Mianxi beat her to it.
"Grandpa Zu, what should I do? Am I causing trouble?"
"Don't be afraid." The elder in turn comforted Ling Mianxi, "They don't have evidence, so they can't attack us rashly. If we invite the Judicial Hall, the Judiciary Hall will only stand on our side."
Ling Mianxi nodded obediently: "That's good, that's good. Grandpa Zu, my cultivation has improved again. Come and try it."
The great elder's attention was all taken away, and he was very surprised: "Another breakthrough? OK, OK, let's go to the school grounds."
A crisis was thus resolved.
Ling Dongqing crushed a glass and sneered: "Ling Zhonglou, just keep leaning on Ling Mianxi, just wait."
Ling Mianxi's father died young, when she was two years old, leaving only an orphan and a widowed mother.
Many people want to drive them out.
It was Ling Zhonglou who picked up Ling Mianxi and his daughter and took care of them together with Jiang Huaping.
When she was six years old, Ling Mianxi showed unparalleled talent in ancient martial arts.
This attracted the entire group of elders to pay attention to her, and the ancestor of the Ling family personally went out to teach her.
Ling Dongqing regretted a little. If he had known that Ling Mianxi was such a genius, would Ling Zhonglou have been able to snatch this good opportunity away?
Otherwise, how could the current head of the family belong to Ling Zhonglou?
Ling Zhonglou smiled faintly: "I'll wait."
Ling Dongqing was also angry.
Ling Zhonglou slowly exhaled.
He stood up with a solemn expression: "Zijin, I made you laugh. This time, thanks to your help, I thank you on Xiaoran's behalf."
"Uncle Ling is polite." Ying Zijin nodded, "He also took care of me in school."
"That boy." Ling Zhonglou shook his head, "You saved two of his lives. It's hard to repay the kindness. Otherwise, I'll give him to you as my son. You can do whatever you want with him."
"Then it's better not to do it." Ying Zijin thought for a while, "He said that if he had a son, he would not be able to help but bully him. Jiang Ran's body might not be able to withstand it."
Ling Zhonglou: "..."
**
The next day.
Jiang Ran's injury has completely healed.
Ling Zhonglou still wanted to take charge of the Ling family, so Ling Mianxi and Ying Zijin accompanied him.
Ying Zijin pressed his mask and said, "I'm going to take a look around. Call me when the game starts."
"Hey -" Before Jiang Ran could stop him, the girl had already left.
He was a little annoyed: "Sister, don't stop me. This is the Justice Hall. What if something happens?"
"What could be the matter?" Ling Mianxi bit her lollipop, "You underestimate Ah Ying too much. Maybe there is someone she knows in the Justice Hall."
If Jiang Ran wanted to say anything else, a sarcastic voice came.
"Who can you meet in the Hall of Justice? Stop talking nonsense there! Jiang Ran, you are lucky to be able to wake up."
Qiao Ting couldn't believe it either.
Jiang Ran was beaten like that by Qiao Dong two days ago, and now he can go to the ground.
Now the unconscious person has become Qiao Dong.
The Qiao family also invited ancient doctors to treat him, but they couldn't cure him.
In the end, between the high-priced medicinal materials and Qiao Dong, I chose to give up Qiao Dong.
Qiao Ting felt itchy with hatred.
Without Qiao Dong, he would have a difficult time in the Hall of Justice.
Jiang Ran turned around and sneered: "I have a father, what do you have?"
Qiao Ting didn't understand what he said, but his expression remained sarcastic: "The matter of my uncle's coma has been spread throughout the judicial hall. It was not your fault, and it has something to do with you."
"Just wait, you won't get better, the higher ups will punish you!"
As if to confirm this sentence, a steward hurriedly came from the east.
"Jiang Ran." He stopped, looked at Jiang Ran first, and then said, "The studio wants you to come over."
Jiang Ran was stunned: "What did you say?"
"Master Ying," the steward urged, "Why don't you hurry up and get there?"
When Qiao Ting heard this, he was overjoyed: "Hahahaha, Jiang Ran, you're done! You actually alarmed the audience, and you still want to compete with me. Whether you can come out alive in a while is a question!"
"You deserve it, you really deserve it! Even if you can come out and the movie theater has warned you, would you still dare to attack me? Hahahaha!"
The other guards also looked over.
Some people were surprised, some were gloating.
Jiang Ran is too young, and his ancient martial arts skills are so high, he has become a thorn in the eyes of many people.
Jiang Ran clasped his fingers and whispered: "Sister, just wait for me. I'll be back as soon as I go."
Ling Mianxi frowned: "I'll go with you and wait for you outside. If anything happens, just call me."
She definitely couldn't defeat Ying, but it was impossible not to protect her brother.
The two followed the steward to a building.
The steward stopped Ling Mianxi and asked Jiang Ran to go in by himself.
Jiang Ran was a little nervous.
Not to mention that he is just a fifth-level guard of the Hall of Justice. Even a first-level guard is not qualified to meet the senior officials of the Hall of Justice.
The division of labor in the Hall of Justice is clear.
The two guardians on the left and right lead the escort team to maintain the security of the ancient martial arts world.
The Board of Elders is highly respected and responsible for decision-making on all matters.
