Take charge of Ascension

Chapter 191
The death of the Marquis of Zhuhai caused great turmoil in the royal city. The Hou's mansion tried its best to capture the murderer, but after several days, nothing came of it.

Zhu Haihou died, the funeral still had to be done, and there was no conflict with apprehending the murderer, and all the forces in Wangcheng got the invitation.

In order to recruit a son-in-law for the concubine, the Marquis Zhuhai invited many families to come to Wangcheng. Now, the happy event has turned into a funeral, but people can't be kicked away. Therefore, Luo Qiushui, Gu Wandao and the others also received invite.

A happy event turned into a funeral, and many people participated in it. The eldest son of the Hou Mansion did his best, and he clearly wanted to make the funeral a good one.

On the day when Zhu Haihou was laid out and buried, there was an endless stream of people coming and going in front of the Hou's mansion, carriages and horses stopped here.

When Zhao Ji came here together with Luo Qiushui and Luo Qingyun, the residence of the Marquis of Zhuhai he saw was different from the previous few days. Above the gate, white cloth hung high, the gate and the servants were covered with plain onyx, and their faces The expression on his face was miserable, as if he had suddenly changed from heaven on earth to hell.

Regarding Zhu Haihou's death, Zhao Ji didn't want to express any opinion, he just looked at the matter from the perspective of a bystander, and treated it coldly.

Zhao Ji and Luo Qiushui didn't come early, many people had already arrived, after Zhao Ji and the others arrived, they went to the altar one by one, bowed to the altar and offered an incense stick.

"Go well, your death was done by members of the Blood Demon Sect, planned by Dongfang Wu and Wei Wuwei, so please don't bother me."

When offering incense, Zhao Ji's face was not happy, but slightly sad, and he muttered secretly in his heart.

In the past, Zhao Ji was an absolute materialist and did not believe in the existence of ghosts in the world. However, he came to the heaven inexplicably.

After that, people continued to come to worship the spirit. During the process, there was a person standing in the hall to thank him. He was a young man in his thirties.

Hearing some people's comments, Zhao Ji knew that this person was the eldest son of the Marquis of Zhu Hai, and he was the Marquis of Zhu Hai who was about to succeed him. His first impression was not bad, he was more gentle and elegant, and his cultivation was not weak. If you read correctly, it should have reached the realm of the tenth floor of the day after tomorrow.

The whole day, the people who came did not stop, and on the second day, after Zhu Haihou was buried, the eldest son said to everyone: "Everyone, thank you for coming to see my father off these two days. I am very grateful. Thank you."

After finishing speaking, the Eldest Young Master gave a deep salute to everyone, expressing his attitude perfectly.

"It should be, Eldest Young Master, you don't have to be polite."

"Hou Ye has always been Wang Cheng's pinnacle of Dinghai. We are saddened when he suddenly leaves, so we naturally want to see him off."

"Master Hou has gone, and we are all sad, but please be sure to express your condolences, Eldest Young Master."

"Eldest son, he is too polite, how can we bear it."

……

The eldest son was very polite and gave a lot of face, but everyone couldn't lose their eyesight, no one dared to be arrogant, and they all returned the salute to the eldest son, and responded one after another.

Among these people, there may not have been people who had a bad relationship with the eldest son in the past, but that was in the past, and it was different from the past. In the past, the eldest son could be ignored, but now it is no longer possible.

When the Marquis of Zhuhai was here, he did not clearly indicate the candidate for the throne. Although the eldest son had the advantage of etiquette, the second son was even more favored by the Marquis of Zhuhai. There were other sons below, so there might not be no chance.

Not long ago, the Second Young Master was killed, and the Eldest Young Master's hopes were greatly increased. That's all, I don't want to, not long after, even the Marquis of Zhuhai died, and the position of Lord Marquis will clearly fall into the hands of the Eldest Young Master up.

Facing the eldest son, everyone can ignore it, but facing the Marquis, it is different. Obtaining the position of Marquis of the Sea means that he can be in charge of everything in the royal city. As far as his power is concerned, the entire God Turtle Island will be under his control. Under his control, no one would dare to offend easily.

Seeing everyone's respectful and friendly faces, the Eldest Young Master felt a little proud, his gaze swept across the crowd slowly, and he said loudly: "In three days, I will inherit the position of Marquis of the Sea. I hope you all come to watch the ceremony."

"Come, will come, will definitely come."

"The Eldest Young Master inherits the position of Lord Marquis. How can I miss such a big event."

"Yes, I will definitely come."

"Don't worry, Lord Hou, I will definitely support you."

"Hou Ye's succession to the throne is what everyone expects, and we will definitely come to watch the ceremony."

"After three days, I will come to watch the ceremony on time."

……

The Eldest Young Master's invitation was unanimously agreed by everyone, and everyone rushed to express their opinions first, as if they were afraid that others would not hear their voices, and what's more, they started flattering at this time.

In the hot atmosphere below, the eldest son couldn't help showing a smug smile. It seemed that he was very satisfied with his charisma.

In fact, he didn't even think about it, would he be so enthusiastic if he hadn't held great power and was about to become the representative of Zhuhaihou, Wangcheng or other families.

"Brother, are you very proud that things have come to this point?"

A pleasant voice, full of coldness, resounded in the hall.

Following this pleasant voice, a beautiful woman with a charming face and protruding back came in. Zhao Ji took a look and saw that it was the face of the princess.

The concubine walked in with a frosty face, her eyes were cold, and she looked a bit aggressive. Behind her, there were a few elderly or middle-aged people.

"Concubine Rong, why are you here, big brother has business here, don't mess around."

Seeing Wang Feirong's appearance, for some reason, the Eldest Prince felt a sense of uneasiness, he couldn't help but stare at Wang Feirong, and said in a somewhat stiff voice.

"Brother, I know you're doing something right, but what I'm going to do next is not to make trouble."

The princess said coldly.

After saying this, the eldest son was ignored, the princess turned around, faced everyone, and said loudly: "I came here today to let everyone be a witness. There is one thing that must be clarified and made clear."

"Concubine Rong, what's the matter with you, I told you, there is a serious matter here, you can't tolerate nonsense, and you still don't back down!"

Showing off his elder brother's identity and majesty, the eldest son glared at Wang Fei's appearance, and yelled at her in a very stern voice.

"Brother, you are really my good brother. Tell me, how did your father die? Did you do it? Tell me, tell me clearly in front of so many people today!"

The princess, who had always been as cold as an iceberg, broke out completely, raised her eyebrows, glared at the young master, and shouted hysterically.
