The elder of the South Courtyard was a little confused.
But then he felt that this woman didn't know when to retreat and didn't deserve her position.
With a gloomy face, he said to Long Tianhao, "It's better for a woman not to meddle in men's affairs. Temple Master, you should take some time to discipline your family members! "
But the man said indifferently, "Even I dare not disobey my wife's words."
The implication was that who dared to discipline his wife?
The elder of the South Courtyard choked and said angrily, "Are you going to be enemies with the Inner Hall just to please a woman?"
But Long Tianhao said calmly, "The Chief Elder can't tell us what to do in the affairs of the Holy Hall. The elder of the South Courtyard hasn't become the Chief Elder yet. I'm afraid it's not good to overstep one's authority. "
Usually, Long Tianhao did not care much about the quarrels between the two of them.
But the other party had to make things difficult for his wife today, which was asking for trouble.
The people from the other three parties also understood.
Their Temple Master was henpecked.
Well, he wanted to win over the other party and cooperate with them, but he slandered the other party's wife.
Oh, it seemed that the elder of the South Courtyard was really greedy.
There could only be one word to describe him — stupid.
Although the other three elders didn't sympathize with the elder of the South Courtyard, they were a community and it was not good to be a joke to outsiders.
As a last resort, the elders of the West Courtyard and the East Courtyard came out to make peace.
"Alas, Temple Master, Madam, the elder of the South Courtyard is old and muddled. In fact, he doesn't mean any harm. Please don't argue with him. "
The elder of the West Courtyard seemed to speak for the elder of the South Courtyard, but in fact, he seized the opportunity to insult him.
Lin Mengya also accepted the elder of the West Courtyard's kindness for the sake of Song Yingkui.
She smiled slightly and said, "Of course I won't argue with an old and muddled man."
"You —" The elder of the South Courtyard almost spat out a mouthful of blood and stared at Lin Mengya angrily.
But the latter was not afraid of him at all. Instead, she said in a tone that was enough to piss him off, "I think it's because the previous days were too leisurely? In this way, in addition to the due quota, everything that the Inner Hall wants will be calculated according to the market price. Money in one hand, goods in the other. What do you think? "
The elders of the other three academies were unhappy when they heard that.
However, they were not complaining about Lin Mengya, but the Elder of the South Courtyard.
Who asked him to spout nonsense!
This time, they would have to spend a lot more money.
At the same time, the Elder of the South Courtyard did not learn his lesson. Instead, he used his status to point at her and scold her.
"Little bitch! What right do you have to cut our stuff? From now on, you are no longer the Lady of the Temple! Scram now. If you dare to take another step into the Holy Temple, I'll get someone to drag you into the torture chamber! "
As soon as he said that, except for the North Courtyard Elder, the faces of the East Courtyard and the West Courtyard all changed.
That damned old man! It's fine if you're courting death, but don't drag them down with you!
At this moment, Long Tianhao's voice was exceptionally cold.
"You want my wife to scram? Ha, who gave you the right? "
Right at this moment, a figure suddenly appeared.
In the blink of an eye, he had grabbed the neck of the Elder of the South Courtyard.
The man's silver mask covered most of his face, leaving only his thin lips. At this moment, a cruel sneer hung on his lips.
"How dare you do this to my family!"
Madam deserves to die for being disrespectful! "
The Elder of the South Courtyard felt as if his chest was about to explode in the next moment.
That hand carried a hellish aura of death. With just a single touch, he was so scared that his entire body trembled, and he completely lost his resistance.
"Stop!"
Just when the Elder of the South Courtyard was about to be strangled to death, the Elder of the North Courtyard suddenly moved.
In the blink of an eye, he had exchanged hundreds of blows with the masked man.
In the end, the man retreated behind Lin Mengya, and the hands of the Elder of the North Courtyard hidden in his sleeves were trembling violently.
The Elder of the North Courtyard narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a cold voice, "May I ask who you are? Why did you sneak into my Inner Hall? "
"I'm the personal bodyguard of my wife. How can a mere Inner Hall stop me?"
As Qinghu spoke, his cold eyes were fixed on the Elder of the South Courtyard.
That person had already collapsed to the ground, his hands tightly covering his neck. Apart from resentment, there was also a deep sense of fear in his eyes as he looked at the three of them.
Just now, he could feel that the other party really wanted to kill him!
Qinghu's attack made the situation a little awkward.
However, this was also the trouble caused by the Elder of the South Courtyard, and the other three courtyards did not want to be implicated with him.
But it was really embarrassing to try to clear their names at this time. The East Courtyard and the West Courtyard had no choice but to speak for the South Courtyard.
"What's done is done. I think the South Courtyard has learned its lesson. Madam, why don't we end this matter here? "
Elder Song of the West Courtyard was also in a dilemma at this time.
In fact, he was the sworn enemy of the South Courtyard. The hook-nosed man was a spy arranged by the South Courtyard.
But after all, they were the four inner courtyards. If something really happened to the South Courtyard, they would definitely be affected.
But he felt that the South Courtyard should also be taught a lesson.
So that the South Courtyard could not suppress the East Courtyard by relying on the marriage relationship between the South Courtyard and the North Courtyard.
Lin Mengya snorted disdainfully and said, "I'll say it for the last time. The quota is the quota, and I will give you what you deserve. As for the others, don't even think about it in the future. "
She had noticed that there was a huge amount of money in the Holy Hall that went missing.
Even Deputy Temple Master Qin, the old man, said that this amount of money was tacitly agreed by the previous Temple Masters.
Later, in a letter, the former Temple Master told them that this huge amount of money was used to provide for the Inner Courtyard.
Moreover, in order to do the Inner Courtyard a favor, she took the initiative to add some money.
But unexpectedly, this made some people greedy, and it became a matter of course for them.
Since she, the "rich man", had spoken, the people of the four courtyards did not dare to disobey.
But they thought that their status was superior, and they always felt that it was their duty to receive the support of the Holy Hall. Because of this, they forgot their own duties.
It had to be said that some people really needed a beating.
With Qinghu, a top master, holding the fort, even the Elders of the North Courtyard looked more serious.
They always thought that the Inner Courtyard was more powerful than the Holy Hall.
They did not expect that the mechanism that they were so proud of was nothing in Qinghu's eyes.
After the Elders of the West Courtyard and the East Courtyard had a good talk, Lin Mengya and Long Tianhao returned to the negotiating table.
Although there were only a few of them, no one would treat them coldly.
Seeing that the atmosphere gradually eased, the Elders of the West Courtyard and the East Courtyard looked at each other, and then the latter said, "In fact, this time I invited you and Madam here for …
To talk about the matter of the Chief Elder. "
After the disappearance of the Chief Elder, the four courtyards coveted the position.
In fact, not all the Elders of the four courtyards were qualified. There were Grand Elders above them.
According to seniority, those Grand Elders were indeed qualified to inherit the position of the Chief Elder.
At the same time, it also meant that the courtyard that succeeded in becoming the Chief Elder would benefit from it.
Originally, this generation's First Elder belonged to the South Campus.
Since the South Courtyard and the North Courtyard were on the same side, the successor of the Chief Elder should be either from the West Courtyard or the East Courtyard.
However, the South Courtyard used the excuse that the Chief Elder disappeared when he was in office, and it was not a legitimate abdication, as an excuse, so they had to elect another Grand Elder to succeed him.
Naturally, the East Courtyard and the West Courtyard would not agree.
In this way, wouldn't the benefits of the South Courtyard be in vain?
Therefore, the four courtyards began to wrangle, and the conflict between the two sides became more and more intense.
However, the four courtyards could not reach a consensus no matter what they said.
Seeing the situation in the Inner Hall becoming more and more chaotic day by day, they had no choice but to pin their hopes on the Divine Hall.
But at this time, Lin Mengya was a little confused.
Didn't Song Yingkui say that they had to find a "descendant of God"?
Long Tianhao had the same thought. After thinking for a moment, he said, "What are the criteria for electing the Chief Elder?"
The Elder of the East Courtyard explained in detail, "To become the Chief Elder, first of all, he must be recommended by one of the four courtyards. Secondly, he must find evidence. Thirdly, and most importantly, he must get the consent of all four courtyards at the same time."
Lin Mengya thought for a moment and asked, "Why don't you find evidence again?"
At this time, the Elder of the South Courtyard finally learned to be afraid. He was very unwilling, but he did not dare to argue anymore.
"If the evidence is so easy to find, we won't have to change the Chief Elder every 30 years!"
Then, he looked at the East Courtyard and the West Courtyard angrily, and said discontentedly, "We said 30 years, but this time the Chief Elder has only been in office for 15 years!"
But the East Courtyard and the West Courtyard did not think so.
"So what if he has been in office for 15 years? One evidence can only be used once, and you want to use it twice? What a joke! "The Elder of the West Courtyard immediately retorted.
Seeing that the three parties were about to quarrel again, the Elder of the North Courtyard frowned and shouted coldly, "Shut up!"
He rubbed his eyebrows, and when he looked at the three people, the disdain in his eyes lessened.
"This time, I invited you here mainly in the hope that you can help us make a decision."
The six parties of the Six Direction Palace were the Temple Master, the Chief Elder, and the four courtyards.
Under normal circumstances, these six parties could keep each other in check, and at the same time, they could maintain a balance, so that no one party would be completely defeated.
It could be said that in the past years, these six parties had been very reliable.
But now, the Chief Elder was missing, and the four courtyards were in a stalemate again.
The position of the Divine Hall was particularly important.
"Oh, so you want us to be the judges!"
Lin Mengya suddenly understood, and when she looked at the Elder of the South Courtyard again, she roughly understood why he was so resistant.
Song Yingkui was in contact with them for the first time.
Moreover, he was a smart person, and it was very likely that he had taken this opportunity to win them over.
That was why the Elder of the South Courtyard was so hostile to them.
Thinking of this, she could not help but sigh, "These old guys are all not easy to deal with."
