Chapter 1949 Chapter 2049
"Master of the Flower Rain Temple, Mu Hanyan." Zhao Xinghu felt that the elder brother's question was a bit unnecessary, but he still said through gritted teeth.
"It's really her!" Zhao Xinghong frowned heavily.
"What's wrong, brother? Could it be that Mu Hanyan has some special background?" Zhao Xinghu noticed the frown of his elder brother and asked suspiciously.
He knew that, as the right priest of the Temple of Life, Zhao Xinghong didn't care much about the chief priests of the subordinate Twelve Temples. The Second Temple, but looking at Zhao Xinghong's appearance, it seems that this Mu Hanyan is not that simple.
"There is no special background, but I was reading the dossier sent by Long Aoli just now. This time, the Tianyang Temple sacrifice ceremony, the final winner is Mu Hanyan. This person's strength should not be underestimated." Zhao Xinghong said .
In fact, what Zhao Xinghong really cared about was not Mu Hanyan's strength, but her age. At a young age, he can become the master of a hall, defeat Long Aoli and his son, intimidate the priests of other halls, and win the laurels in the ceremony of worshiping the gods. Mu Hanyan's talent and potential cannot be ignored.
Any family with an ancient heritage has experienced ups and downs, and even experienced the crisis of life and death more than once. Therefore, as the head of the family, he is often more cautious and never wants to easily make enemies, especially those with great potential. .
And Mu Hanyan was obviously like this.
Zhao Xinghu curled his lips, isn't this nonsense, if Mu Hanyan is strong, how can he be tortured obediently with his status as Zhao Xinghu.
"Brother, why are our Zhao family children being so humiliated? You have to make decisions for me." Zhao Xinghu said with a sad face.
Speaking of which, he was quite old, but when he asked for his eldest brother at this time, his pitiful appearance was like a child crying to an adult after being wronged.
"Tell me first, why did Mu Hanyan torture you?" Zhao Xinghong looked at his pitiful appearance, and couldn't harden his heart.
In fact, Zhao Xinghu's talent is not weak. If he had worked hard at the beginning, he would still have the opportunity to compete with him for the position of Patriarch. It's just that he himself gave up early, which made Zhao Xinghong the Patriarch.
And Zhao Xinghu's lustful, greedy and reckless behavior in recent years has a lot to do with his connivance. Otherwise, his position in this family has always been uneasy.
Therefore, for this younger brother, he still feels somewhat guilty.
"It's not because of the sleeping..." Zhao Xinghu didn't hide anything, and quickly told what happened in Huayu City.
Arranging for maids to sleep in was originally a matter agreed upon by various temples, so he certainly wouldn't feel ashamed.
"This Mu Hanyan is making a big fuss. Even if her Huayu Temple does not tolerate this kind of thing, it is different from the rules of other temples. You are not guilty of ignorance. How can she be so powerful and relentless!" After listening , Zhao Xinghong said a little angrily.
"It's thanks to my sympathy and compassion. Seeing that lowly maidservant disobedient, it's useless to force her. Otherwise, it wouldn't be as simple as whipping me a hundred times. According to Mu Hanyan's previous order, I was supposed to whip me a hundred times, and then Fa-rectification on the spot." Zhao Xinghu said resentfully.
"What, you mean you didn't do anything to that lowly maid at all?" Zhao Xinghong asked in surprise. Zhao Xinghu spoke too quickly earlier, and some places were unclear.
"Yeah, if she is innocent, you think I can come back alive." Zhao Xinghu said with a straight face.
"Too much deception, really too much deception!" Zhao Xinghong was finally furious.
If Zhao Xinghu was lustful and corrupted the innocence of other maids by coercive means, it would be fine for Mu Hanyan to punish him severely in anger, but since Zhao Xinghu didn't succeed, she would be deceiving too much by doing so!
Zhao Xinghong didn't doubt Zhao Xinghu's words. He knew the character of this baby brother best. Although his character was not good, he never lied in front of him.
"Isn't it? I, Zhao Xinghu, have never suffered from this kind of suffering since I was a child, let alone being humiliated like this." Zhao Xinghu said adding fuel to the fire.
"Does she know your identity?" Zhao Xinghong asked.
"Of course I know. She knew it on the first day I arrived. If you don't believe me, you can ask Zhuge Qiu." Zhao Xinghu replied.
"Okay, okay, knowing that it's my Zhao Xinghong's younger brother, but for such a trivial matter, she still did such a heavy hand. She didn't take my Zhao family and me Zhao Xinghong seriously." Zhao Xinghong was very angry, Instead, he calmed down and said with a sneer.
But he didn't know that the trivial things in his eyes were not trivial in Mu Hanyan's eyes. He also only saw the suffering of his younger brother, but he didn't think about the humiliation suffered by that maid. Of course, how could a priest like him, who regarded the common people as pariahs, take the dignity of a mere commoner woman into consideration?
Seeing the sneer on Zhao Jianghong's face, Zhao Xinghu was overjoyed. Based on his understanding of his elder brother, he knew that he was really angry.
This is no longer his personal honor or disgrace, but is related to the face of the Zhao family, and even more related to the majesty of Zhao Xinghong, the right priest of the Temple of Life.
"How's the investigation of Xiang Qiuzhan's matter?" Zhao Xinghong asked.
"I haven't checked carefully, but in my opinion, Xiang Qiuzhan's supernatural power is amazing. Even our five high-ranking temples can't deal with him. Even if Mu Hanyan has some strength, it is impossible to kill him on the spot. Even if others beat him But, can’t you still escape? Most of this is just a rumor, or someone is impersonating him, using Xiang Qiuzhan’s name to gain his prestige.” Of course, Zhao Xinghu couldn’t help Mu Hanyan rectify his name, so he said nonsense.
"Forget it, this matter is very important and there are many doubts. It's normal if you can't find out. When you report it, don't say too much, just be ambiguous." Zhao Xinghong warned. People in his position are naturally cautious in everything. Will leave a way out for myself.
"Brother, I understand." Zhao Xinghu nodded, and asked anxiously, "Brother, how are you going to deal with that bitch?"
"Don't ask about this matter for the time being, and don't spread it around. I have my own way to seek justice for you." Zhao Xinghong said with a gloomy face.
After all, Mu Hanyan is the chief priest of the First Hall, and he can't move if he wants to, at least he can't act on the truth, he must be justified, and either he doesn't make a move, or if he makes a move, he must be put to death. Otherwise, with Mu Hanyan's potential, it will become a serious problem in the future.
Before Zhao Xinghong returned to the short table, he picked up the file sent by the Tianyang Temple, and then flipped through the other files sent by his eyeliner, tapping the table with his fingers.
For a moment, a cold and ruthless smile crossed the corner of his mouth.
