Konoha Hypocrite Uchiha Tonan

Su family.

As the head of the four major families in Runzhou, the Su family is undoubtedly the head of the four major families in Jiangnan. There is a certain gap between the Bai, Shen and Song families and the Su family.

In the past decades or hundreds of years, the four families have fought openly and secretly for countless times. Even with the rapid rise of the Xiao family in recent years, they still have not replaced the Su family's position.

At this time, everything in the Su family, which firmly occupied the position of the first family in Jiangnan, seemed to be normal, but in a certain hall, the atmosphere was a bit solemn.

There were only two people in the spacious hall.

The head of the Su family, Su Zhe, sat on the main seat, rubbing his thumb and index finger gently, saying in disbelief: "The Xiao family is actually the remnant of the Xiao family of Liang Kingdom..."

Another man walked slowly in the hall and murmured: "The Liang Kingdom has been destroyed for a long time, but they still want to restore it, and they even told us this treasonous idea. Aren't they afraid that the Su family will tell the government ?”

"I'm afraid he is weak." Su Zhe stood up and said, "In my opinion, I dare not speak of the whole of Jiangnan, but Jiangnan East Road is afraid that it has fallen into their hands. If not, he will never dare to tell us clearly. all of these."

The man looked at him and asked: "Brother, what do you mean, we want to help the person named Xiao?"

"Why should we help him?" Su Zhe glanced at him and asked: "Today the Tang family is at its peak. Among the two princes, His Majesty is obviously more inclined to His Royal Highness Duan Wang. Whether it is power or wealth, the Su family only needs to wait. It only takes a few years, why take such an incredible risk?”

"Brother means..." The middle-aged man looked at him and asked, "Shall we expose them to the government?"

"No." Su Zhe waved his hand and said, "Xiao is so confident that Runzhou must be under his control. Once he is angered, I'm afraid the Su family will be destroyed in his hands."

The middle-aged man's face darkened. Although the Su family was the largest family in the south of the Yangtze River and could mobilize huge resources, it was still just a business family. There were only about a hundred servants and guards, so it was impossible to go head-to-head with the well-prepared rebels.

He said with a sullen face: "It doesn't matter if you help, or if you don't help, then what should the Su family do?"

"Just wait and see what happens." Su Zhe sat down again and said, "This move, whether advancing or retreating, carries huge risks. The best way is to not advance or retreat and just wait and see what happens."

He looked out the window and said: "If the Xiao family fails, it will not affect our Su family. If he really succeeds and the Su family is not an enemy of him, he will not do too much. At most, he will suffer some losses. The family can still be preserved..."

The middle-aged man looked at him and asked tentatively: "Brother, do you think they might succeed?"

"It's impossible for them alone." Su Zhe breathed a long sigh of relief and said: "But there are still Western Regions and Jiangnan. If Chen State is attacked from both sides, it may really be impossible to survive. This possibility is not small. The Su family must not put all their efforts into it. All hopes are pinned on the Tang family and Prince Duan..."

The middle-aged man thought for a while and said: "I understand. If we wait and see what happens, the Su family can advance or retreat. No matter what happens in the future, they will not be forced to a dead end..."

Su Zhe nodded and said: "Xiao's rebellion will definitely not let go of the capital official from the Ministry of Personnel. Even if he fails to rebel, if he can help us get rid of that person, we can save a lot of trouble for the capital..."

The middle-aged man thought for a while and said: "If they don't get rid of them, we can still set fire to the chaos. After all, the capital has given special care this time..."

Su Zhe nodded and said, "You can arrange this matter..."

Before he finished speaking, a loud noise suddenly came from outside the room. Su Zhe paused, looked outside, frowned and said, "What's going on?"

In the courtyard of the Su family, dozens of figures wearing armor poured in from outside the door. The leader stood in the courtyard and shouted: "Who is the person in charge of the Su family?"

A housekeeper ran over and asked, "I am the housekeeper of the Su Mansion. I wonder if I have anything important to do?"

Liu Tong glanced at him and said: "The assassin who sneaked into the inn to kill my family yesterday escaped. We suspect that he hid in your Su Mansion..."

He looked behind him, waved his hand and said, "Search for me!"

The steward took out a banknote from his sleeve and handed it to Liu Tong, and said hurriedly: "My lord, have you made a mistake? This is the Su Mansion. How could the Su Mansion harbor criminals?"

Liu Tong put the banknote in his arms, looked at him, and said angrily: "You dare to bribe me, brothers, there must be something wrong with the Su family. Search carefully and search hard!"

The face of Su's housekeeper changed drastically. Su Zhe walked out of the room, looked at Liu Tong, and asked, "Who are you? Do you have a search warrant from the government?"

Liu Tong threw him the search warrant issued by the governor's office and said: "Assassinating an imperial official is a capital crime. Harboring a criminal will be punished with the same crime. What, are you going to stop me?"

Su Zhe looked at him and asked, "What if we want to stop him?"

Clang!

Liu Tong took out the long sword from his waist, pointed at him from a distance, and said: "Kill without mercy!"

At the same time as he made this move, two old men walked out from behind Fang Zhe, staring at him intently.

Being looked at by the two old men, Liu Tong felt like he was being stared at by two venomous snakes. He couldn't help but shudder. When he looked at the two people again, he smiled instead of angry and said loudly: "Brothers, listen up. , the Su Mansion is very likely to be harboring criminals, and if anyone dares to obstruct official business, they will be killed without mercy!"

"Wait a minute." Su Zhe walked out, waved to the two old men behind him, and said, "If the Su family is harboring criminals, you will know after searching."

"You know the truth." Liu Tong glanced at him, looked behind him, and said loudly: "Search for me!"

……

"That was the second master's favorite vase, and they actually smashed it..."

"The third lady's rosewood cabinet was also demolished by them!"

"Who are these people? Has the Su family offended them?"

"I don't care what I do..."

Su House.

The servant girl's servants stood in the yard, watching those people turn the entire Su family into a mess. The rare treasures placed outside by the Su family were destroyed to an unknown extent, and they all looked horrified.

"They did it on purpose!" The middle-aged man looked angry and couldn't help but take a step, but Su Zhe reached out to stop him.

He turned his head and said angrily: "Brother, do you want to watch them destroy the Su family?"

Su Zhe looked calm, rubbed his fingers again and again, and said, "Let's see what they want to do first."

Su Mansion, a messy room somewhere.

Liu Tong looked at Chen Zhou and asked, "Old Chen, are there really criminals hiding here?"

Chen Zhou waved his hand and said, "No one is guilty. These are just excuses made by adults."

Liu Tong showed a puzzled expression on his face and said: "No one is guilty, why does the master torment the Su family so much? Has the Su family ever offended him?"

"It is not the Su family that has offended my lord, but the Tang family of the capital. But who allowed them to have anything to do with the Tang family?" Chen Zhou glanced at him and said, "It's not like you don't know about my lord's petty ways. You care about every detail and will retaliate. Your Majesty. The feud with the Tang family is as deep as the ocean, and the relationship between the Su family and the Tang family is so close, I'm afraid I won't give up until the Su family is in a state of unrest this time."

Liu Tong looked at him and asked, "What's going on?"

Chen Zhou glanced out the window and said: "This is not easy. I come to the Su family to search for it once a day. I will wear a dragon robe and two phoenix crowns on that day. Just say that they were found from the Su family. In this way, the Su family We can't take off the label of rebellion. We took the opportunity to capture all the Su family, escort them to the capital, confiscate their property, and hand it over to the treasury. Your Majesty asked Mr. Tang to come to Jiangnan this time just to make money. The Su family is so Fu, will your majesty let it go? Even if the Tang family comes to the court to explain things to the Su family, for the sake of money, your majesty will turn a blind eye..."

Liu Tong glanced sideways out of the window, clapped his hands, and said with a smile: "Wonderful..."

Outside the window, a servant of the Su family was listening to the conversation inside. His legs were shaking and sweat was pouring from his forehead. When he heard footsteps coming from inside, he ran away...

……

"What did you say!" The middle-aged man next to Su Zhe looked at a servant of the Su family, his expression changed wildly, he grabbed his collar and shouted loudly: "That's what they really said!"
