Sui and Tang Dynasties: Awakening the Supreme Skills at the Beginning

"Silence! Silence!"

Old Lady Li knocked the ground heavily with her walking stick, and the noisy ancestral hall immediately became silent.

"In that case, I will make the final judgment."

Old Lady Li paused and glanced at the people below.

Everyone's eyes were immediately focused on Old Lady Li, and you could hear a pin drop in the ancestral hall.

"Li Zhen's serious injury to Zhang Chuang was actually caused by Zhang Chuang's intention to rape Jianing, but fortunately no serious consequences were caused, and Zhang Chuang was seriously injured, so Zhang Chuang's guilt will no longer be pursued, and Li Zhen's responsibility for wounding others will no longer be pursued..."

Before Old Lady Li finished her words, Li Zhen immediately shouted loudly.

"Old lady, this is not fair!"

"Buzz!"

The ancestral hall was suddenly filled with discussions.

Old Lady Li snorted in dissatisfaction. Ever since she became the clan leader, no one had dared to refute her in person. The little boy Li Zhen was too presumptuous.

Zhang Mingyuan next to him understood and shouted loudly.

"Is there still any law? Silence!"

The voices of people's discussions immediately disappeared, and the ancestral hall returned to silence.

"Li Zhen's grandson, what do you think?"

Old Lady Li took a deep breath and spoke slowly.

Li Zhen took a step forward and bowed to Old Lady Li.

"Old Madam, even if Zhang Chuang attempted adultery, it is a serious crime that should be punished by exile. How can you pardon his crime so easily? Therefore, your grandson will not accept it!"

We can’t let the old lady decide Chuang’er’s guilt, otherwise the Zhang family will be finished!

Thinking of this, Li Yue'e burst into a loud "Awooo".

"Li Zhen, don't be so ungrateful. Since both parties are responsible for today's incident, let's just call it a draw. I'll let you go today!"

After hearing this, Li Zhen was stunned. Is there such a shameless person?

Let me go, how dare you say that!

Someone nearby commented, "I finally see what a thick-skinned person looks like!"

"Li Zhen is also your nephew, but you are so partial to him, it's really..." Li Youcai shook his head and sighed.

Even those people who had originally supported the Zhang family lowered their heads, too embarrassed to look at him.

Now that the evidence is irrefutable, they still say that each party is responsible and it's a draw...

As the largest family in Shenxing Town, is it really okay for you to confuse right and wrong like this?

"What do you think, idiot Li Zhen? With the status of my Zhang family, how can we be bullied by you, the common people?"

She had already made up her mind. She couldn't admit defeat and couldn't care less about anything else for the time being.

I am just shameless, what can you do to me?

Li Zhen's face turned cold little by little. Shameless, so shameless!

And he even said arrogantly that he would let him go?

Li Zhen really wanted to step forward and ask, who gave you the courage to disregard your integrity?

When dealing with such a shameless person, I should make him feel pain and let him know what the price is for provoking me!

At this time, Old Lady Li gave Li Yue'e a soothing look.

Li Yue'e understood and stopped talking.

Mrs. Li then said seriously

"The Zhang family has only one son for three generations, and now you have made Zhang Chuang incapable of any duties. Isn't this the end of the Zhang family's lifeline? Although Zhang Chuang has made mistakes, Li Zhen, you shouldn't be so unforgiving. We are all relatives, so you should forgive him when you can!"

"Relatives, are these considered relatives?"

Li Zhen sneered and glanced at everyone in the Zhang family.

"Why didn't you tell me we were relatives when you were harassing my sister so frequently?"

"Why didn't you tell me we were related when you pushed me off the cliff?"

"Why didn't you say we were relatives when you and your clansmen were dividing up my family property all those years ago?"

Li Zhen took a step forward and stared at Old Lady Li.

"This...this..."

Old Lady Li was so embarrassed that she was speechless.

Then she sighed and said, "Well, I'll give you a little benefit."

"Well, in that case, I will agree to one of your requests."

"mother!"

Li Yue'e said in a low voice.

"It doesn't matter. Just give him a little money. Jianing has worked hard for a year and only earned three or five strings of silver. How much can he, a small family, ask for?"

Old Lady Li said in a low voice.

"Poor bastard! You've been going through so much trouble just to get money. We thought you had changed your ways, but today, it's really funny!"

"That's right, that's right. How could Mancang have such despicable children? Maybe Li Jianing seduced Master Zhang Chuang in advance and played hard to get?"

"Uh-huh!"

Everyone in the ancestral hall immediately started talking.

"really?"

Li Zhen looked up at the old lady, his eyes full of distrust.

"Within this family, a word from me can still make a difference!"

Old Madam Li snorted in dissatisfaction. Li Zhen was questioning her authority again.

"Then you must return my family's property that you have divided up!"

Li Zhen's words were like pouring a spoonful of soy sauce into a boiling oil pan.

"Boom!"

The ancestral hall was in an uproar.

"That kid has a big appetite, but why would he throw up what he eats?"

"When the Mancang family property was divided up, all the families participated. Isn't this Li Zhen's son standing against the family?"

"Now, no one will say good things about his family!"

"You are still too young and too impatient!"

Second uncle Li Mantun sighed.

"Haha! What a joke! What family property? It's totally fictitious!"

Li Yue'e immediately stood up and retorted.

When the family property was divided up that year, his family gained the most. Not only did they get more than a thousand acres of land, they also took over many shops in Daxing City. Naturally, they had to stand up and refute at this time.

My dear son Li Zhen, your aunt pities you and your brother, and wanted to give you 30 or 50 strings of silver so that you can live a better life. But you are greedy and even set your sights on the family property. You can't blame me for that. Today, you won't get a penny! I guess you are out of food now, so let God starve you to death!

Li Yue'e made up her mind, took a step forward and bowed to Old Lady Li.

"Mom, since Li Zhen doesn't know what's good for him, then my Zhang family won't pay a cent!"

"Yes, Third Sister, you did a great job. Starve them to death!"

Li Youcai next to him said with gritted teeth.

"Yes, yes!"

The rest of the people followed suit.

Li Zhen turned his head and looked at Li Youcai. In the original owner's memory, apart from Li Yue'e, Li Youcai plundered the most property.

"Zhen'er, what can I say about you?"

There was pity in Old Lady Li's eyes.

"Originally, I wanted to get you 30 or 50 strings of cash in compensation so that you could live a better life. But I never thought that you would be so ungrateful. Look, now you have angered everyone. Let's see how you will end up."

"Humph!"

Li Zhen snorted coldly, his attitude remained unchanged.

"How about this, grandson gives up the property and Yue'e is more generous. Zhen'er is your nephew after all. We are blood relatives. How about giving a hundred strings of cash?"

"no!"

"No way?"

Li Zhen and Li Yue'e said in unison.

"One hundred strings of cash? Why doesn't he go to heaven? He doesn't have a penny. Our family's wealth didn't come from the wind!"

Li Yue'e said angrily.

Compared with a family fortune of tens of thousands of strings of coins, what is a hundred strings of coins?

"You want to get rid of me with just one hundred strings of cash? Do you really think I'm a fool?"

Li Zhen was firm in his attitude and refused to give in at all.

"Since both of you are refusing to give in, today's meeting ends here and we will discuss it another day!"

Seeing that both families had a tough attitude, Old Lady Li couldn't help but sigh.

On the way home, Li Mantun grabbed Li Zhen.

"Zhen'er, Jianing, let's go to Second Uncle's house and have a chat."

"it is good!"

Li Zhen and his sister looked at each other and followed Li Mantun.

When they arrived at Li Mantun's house, Li Mantun first put the children to bed, and then walked out of the inner room holding a small wooden box and came to Li Zhen.

"Second Uncle, what is this?"

Li Zhen asked in confusion.

Li Mantun took a key and opened the small box with a "click". Then he took out a thin piece of white paper from it and handed it to Li Zhen.

"This is the deed to a hundred acres of land."

"To be honest, I was given this hundred acres of land from your family. Now it is returned to its original owner."

Li Mantun lowered his head in shame and spoke in a low voice.

"Uncle, can you tell me in detail what happened back then?"

Li Zhen did not take the deed, but looked up at Li Mantun.

"Wait a moment, nephew."

Li Mantun put down the land deed, turned back and went into the inner room.

There was only a rustling sound, and then Li Mantun walked up to Li Zhen and handed him a roll of account book.

"This is the account book that my second uncle kept back then. It records in detail my eldest brother's property and how it was divided up..."

"Second uncle is thoughtful!"

Li Zhen bowed to Li Mantun, took the account book and looked through it in detail.

You don’t know until you see it. It’s shocking. Li Zhen didn’t expect that his father’s assets were so abundant.

There are more than 20,000 strings of silver in the account book, as well as more than 1,700 acres of prime land, plus seven shops in Daxing City. The total assets should be more than 50,000 strings of silver.

"Zhen'er thanks Second Uncle."

Li Zhen bowed to Li Mantun again.

"Uncle, please keep this deed. From now on, this hundred acres of land will be your property."

"Okay! Then you and your brother should move to your uncle's place so that the whole family can have someone to take care of them!"

"Zhen'er thanks Second Uncle very much, we are a family from now on!"

"Yes, a family!"

My second uncle and second aunt cried with joy.

Li Mantun's family has no sons, only two daughters. So after a hundred years, they will not be able to escape the fate of having their property divided up by their clansmen. Now that the two families have become one with Li Zhen, there is naturally no such worry.

It was late at night at the Zhang family’s residence.

Everyone in the Zhang family sat around Zhang Chuang.

"Mom, Chuang'er wants that idiot to die!"

Zhang Chuang lay on the bed and said with gritted teeth.

"Don't worry, grandson. I will go to Mr. Cui's house tomorrow. This time I will make sure that idiot suffer a fate worse than death!"

"Haha! Since ancient times, the people cannot fight against the officials. Lord Cui is the governor of Daxing Prefecture, a third-rank official. Now that idiot is in for a good show. Even if the idiot has some brute force, he is no match for the government!"

Zhang Mingyuan said proudly.
