Chapter 156 Should You Cooperate

Although the five elders usually ignore world affairs, they are clear about what happened in Yuanmen. Yuan Bohan put De Ling under house arrest in the yard and dealt with De Ling's people. They all knew about these things, and they didn't want to Speaking for Deling, the things she did were really too much, it's better to stay in her yard peacefully.

But now, Yuanmen wants to get in touch with Xiliao, the elders can't help but feel a little worried. Now that the court's troubles have not been resolved, does Xiliao also want to trouble Yuanmen?
Yuan Bohan knew that the matter of Helian Guanyu could not be hidden from the five elders, so he said to them: "The elders follow me to the study."

Going to the study to talk about things, I'm afraid things are really not simple.

When the five elders heard Yuan Bohan's words, they all had serious expressions on their faces, and they followed Yuan Bohan to his study.

After closing the study door, Yuan Bohan didn't talk nonsense, and said directly to the five elders: "Helian Guanyu knows about Yuanmen's power in Xiliao!"

"What? Did he use this to threaten Yuanmen?" Yuan Yi became agitated when he heard Yuan Bohan's words, and his whole body was full of evil spirits. Compared with Yuan Bohan, the evil spirit was only a lot more. As an elder of Yuanmen , so how is it simple?
"Elder Yi, listen to me." Yuan Bohan was not angry when Yuan Yi interrupted him, and said in a faint voice: "He doesn't have the guts to threaten me, he really wants to destroy our influence in Xiliao, Then he won't be able to get out of Yuanmen."

"That's right! This guy will just leave his life in Yuanmen! Just now he threatened Yuanmen, he is really courageous!" Yuan Qing shouted angrily.

Yuan Bohan looked helplessly at Yuan Qing who interrupted again, could he still talk properly?

Yuan Qing looked at Yuan Bohan's displeased gaze, laughed haha, and said, "Continue as the master."

"Recently, Helian Guanyu encountered trouble. The Emperor of Xiliao and the Queen Mother hunted him down. He wanted to use the power of Yuanmen to solve this trouble. Once successful, he promised to make Yuanmen develop more smoothly in Xiliao." Yuan Bohan smiled coldly, what Helian Guanyu said sounded extremely tempting in front of others, but in his opinion, it was not attractive at all.

As soon as Yuan Bohan said this, the five elders frowned. Of course they had the same thought as Yuan Bohan.

"I think in the late period of the former dynasty, the founding emperor of the North Wing also asked Yuanmen to help him. At that time, Yuanmen helped him, but what happened later? The old emperor ascended to the position of supreme, and he forgot the kindness of Yuanmen. Now, let’s start targeting the Yuanmen, if it wasn’t for the power of the Yuanmen that made him afraid, I’m afraid the Yuanmen wouldn’t even exist now.” Thinking of the past, Elder Yuanxuan showed a mocking expression on his face.

Those emperors are most afraid of people who are stronger than him. Once they have power, they will kill those who threaten his status.

"Yuanmen's influence in Xiliao has been developed for hundreds of years. It is not worth the loss to expose it for Helian Guanyu. I remember that Helian Guanyu's influence in Xiliao is also very strong. He is fully capable of solving it. The Emperor of Xiliao and the Empress Dowager, but let our Yuanmen do things, hmph! Don't you want to sit back and enjoy the benefits, quit, this deal is not worth it!"

Elder Yuan Xuan shook his head, the more he thought about it, the more he despised Helian Guanyu's behavior, this guy just had no good intentions.

Yuan Bohan nodded, and said to Elder Yuanxuan: "I also rejected him, but he mentioned one thing, elder, you still remember that your grandfather passed away just after his 40th birthday, this matter Do you remember anything?"

As soon as Yuan Bohan's words fell, the expressions of the five elders present changed. Of course they remembered this incident, and they still vividly remembered it. That day was simply a dark day for Yuanmen. First, the head of Yuanmen passed away, and then Yuanmen Mrs. Men died in love, and the winter that day was extremely cold.

"Dangjia, how does this matter have anything to do with what happened in Xiliao?" Elder Yuan Yi asked solemnly. At the beginning, they couldn't find the murderer at all. The old Dangjia lived like this without any poison or injury on his body.

"It has nothing to do with Xiliao, but it has something to do with the Xia Clan." Yuan Bohan said with a soft sigh.

"Xia Clan..." The five elders who were present heard Yuan Bohan's words and glanced at each other. How could it be related to this extinct tribe?
Yuan Bohan looked at the bewildered looks of the five elders, and explained everything one by one, including that his grandmother was of the blood of the Xia clan, the curse of the Xia clan, and the secretary of the Xia clan in the hands of Helian Guanyu. At that time, the faces of the five elders became a little ugly, and the air in the study became oppressive and suffocating.

After Yuan Bohan finished speaking, the five elders present remained silent for a long time. The Xia Clan's curse would fall on the descendants of the Yuan Clan. This was the last thing they wanted to see, and their hearts became heavy.

"Master, can the secretary in Helian Guanyu's hands really lift the curse of the Xia Clan?" Elder Yuan Yi broke the silence and said, at this moment, they really had to pay attention to this issue, even if it was for the future of the Yuan Clan, You have to do it against the tiger!

"I don't know. He won't talk about it after he finishes talking. Unless we agree to his conditions, he won't tell us."

Helian Guanyu is a fox, what Yuan Bohan didn't expect was that he has such a trump card in his hand!

"In this case..." Elder Yuan Yi looked at the four old fellows beside him, and saw them sighed softly, nodded, and exchanged the power of Xiliao for the curse of the descendants of Yuanmen. Although the price was a bit high, But it is something that cannot be avoided.

"Head, you decide! If that's the case, then agree to cooperate, and it's impossible for Yuanmen's wife and Yuanmen's son-in-law to die at the age of 40. This is not a good thing for Yuanmen!" Elder Yi said helplessly.

"En." Yuan Bohan nodded, and then said: "Five elders, don't worry, I won't let Yuanmen lose money."

"It's good that the master can think like this." Yuan Yi said with a heavy heart: "We'll go back first, and leave this matter to the master."

"Okay, elders go slowly." Yuan Bohan sent the five elders out of the study room. At this time, the hearts of the five elders were no longer as heavy as before they came.

Yuan Bohan stood at the door and looked up at the blue sky. After a long time, he turned and went to Huo Zhirou's room.

At this moment in Huo Zhirou's room, Chun Xiao looked at Huo Zhirou weepingly. When she changed Huo Zhirou's clothes just now, the wounds all over her body made Chun Xiao turn pale with fright. Big crime, looking at the bruises on the young lady's body, Chun Xiao blamed herself, why didn't she hit her?
Huo Zhirou looked at Chun Xiao who kept crying. Since the vowel left, this girl cried even more. Huo Zhirou really didn't know why this girl was crying so much, so she said helplessly: "Chun Xiao, don't cry, you If you cry any more, my head hurts."

Hearing Huo Zhirou's words, Chun Xiao choked up and said to Huo Zhirou: "Miss, this servant can't control it, and the more I think about it, the servant feels uncomfortable. The person who was arrested at that time should be the servant, not you."

"Okay, this matter is over, don't talk about it anymore, by the way, where is Ah Yun?" Huo Zhirou has never seen Yuan Yun since he came back. Could it be that Yuan Bohan punished her?
When Chunxiao heard Huo Zhirou's words, her complexion became even darker, and she said, "Miss, Ayun has been poisoned and is still unconscious. Sister Yuanyin said that the poison on Ayun's body is probably difficult to get rid of..."

When Huo Zhirou heard Chun Xiao's words, his face was startled and his heart trembled. He clenched his hands subconsciously into fists. Is Ah Yun poisoned?
Although Ayun didn't serve her for a long time, Huo Zhirou regarded her as one of his own. In this matter, it is reasonable to say that she has implicated these two maids.

When Huo Zhirou thought of this, tears welled up on her face. Chunxiao looked at Huo Zhirou's state, and said helplessly, "Miss, don't cry! You are crying, and this servant can't help it! Just now Sister Yuanyin said that Miss should rest in peace, but don't hurt your spirits, it's all the fault of the servant girl, and the servant girl should not bring up sad things to hurt your spirit, Miss."

"Miss, don't cry anymore. If you cry again, I will just go to the kitchen to find a piece of tofu and smash it to death!" Chun Xiao blamed herself and anxiously wiped the tears from Huo Zhirou's cheeks, carefully, for fear that the tears would make the wound more painful .

When Huo Zhirou heard Chun Xiao's words, he couldn't laugh or cry, but after she said this, Huo Zhirou stopped his tears, stood up and said, "I'm going to see Ayun."

"Miss, don't move!" Chun Xiao pressed Huo Zhirou to prevent her from getting up, and said to Huo Zhirou: "A Yun doesn't live in this yard, there is still a long way from here, when Miss is better , I told Mr. Yuan that the servant will take Miss to see Ayun, Miss, if Mr. Yuan knows that you have left the house without permission, he will not blame you, but the servant.”

When Huo Zhirou heard Chun Xiao's words, she gave up her thoughts, and said to Yuan Bohan when he came back.

"Chun Xiao, brother lives in Yuanmen now?" Huo Zhirou also remembered something, and asked Chun Xiao.

When Chunxiao heard Huo Zhirou's question, she patted her forehead and said to Huo Zhirou: "My servant almost forgot about this, miss, the eldest young master is very angry, and said that when he finds you, he must take you with him." Leaving Yuanmen, the servants can't persuade you, the young master still doesn't know about you being rescued by the Yuan family, if he sees you injured, the young master will be even more dissatisfied with the Yuan family, miss, what do you think should I do?"

When Huo Zhirou heard Chun Xiao's words, she also became distressed. She didn't know why her brother and Yuan Bohan were at odds. Every time Yuan Bohan was mentioned, she asked her to be careful. Now this happened , her brother would be even more dissatisfied with Yuan Bohan, and she didn't know what to do.

Thinking of this, Huo Zhirou sighed softly, and couldn't wait until her wound healed to see her brother again, which made him even more uneasy.

"Why are you sighing?" Yuan Bohan walked in and saw Huo Zhirou sighing in distress, did something happen?Seeing the red circles of Huo Zhirou's eyes, he squinted his eyes and looked at Chun Xiao displeasedly.

Seeing this from Yuan Bohan, Chunxiao lowered his head in fright, and said weakly, "Master Yuan."

Huo Zhirou watched Chun Xiao being frightened by Yuan Bohan, turned his head to look at Yuan Bohan with an unfriendly expression, and said, "Don't scare Chun Xiao, how can you walk without making a sound, it scares us all."

Hearing Huo Zhirou's reproach, Yuan Bohan sat helplessly on the head of the bed, touched her head and said, "It's not that I walk silently, it's that you didn't even know I entered the door when you spoke. , can't you hear me?"

"..." Huo Zhirou laughed a few times, but she really couldn't hear it.

"What's wrong? What happened?" Yuan Bohan asked worriedly, thinking of Huo Zhirou's sad face just now.

"It's not about my brother." Huo Zhirou glared at Yuan Bohan, she didn't blame this guy for forging her letter to anger her brother, now she doesn't know how to appease her brother.
