Taiyuan Prefecture, Wang Family.
The current Wang Clan had already become a laughingstock, a laughingstock of the world. A noble family was humiliated by a brat like Du Qi. Especially Wang Zongzhou, who had been cuckolded his whole life and died in Chang 'an.
It was a great humiliation to the Wang Family.
Wang Zongxi, Wang Zongzhou's brother, was in charge of the Wang Family of Taiyuan.
Wang Zongxi took charge of the family when the news of Wang Zongzhou's death spread. After Wang Zongxi took charge of the Wang family, he directly buried Wang Zongzhou's woman at the bottom of the lake and dealt with all the people related to Wang Zongzhou.
In the hall.
Wang Zongxi sat on the main seat.
The current Wang Zongxi was nearing 50 years old. Because of his excellent maintenance, he looked like a man nearing 40 years old. He didn't look like an old man at all.
The heads of the Wang Family's branches sat on both sides of the hall.
All the branches of the Wang Family were gathered there.
One by one, they gathered and discussed in low voices about what had happened recently.
Wang Zongxi lightly coughed twice, and everyone quieted down, no longer speaking. All eyes were on Wang Zongxi. Wang Zongxi said, "Originally, Wang Zongzhou was killed, and the Du family was in Chang 'an. We were too far away to deal with them. It was not easy to deal with the Du family or Du Qi."
"The other aristocratic families have all chosen to sit on the sidelines and watch the liveliness of our Wang family. They won't get involved in this matter. However, things are different now. News has come out of Chang 'an that the Emperor is transferring Du Ruhui to the position of Dai Zhou's General Manager. Du Ruhui's family is accompanying him, and Du Qi is also present.
"So, our chance to deal with the Du Family is here.
"This is a chance for the Wang Family to avenge our humiliation. The Du Family has gone north and entered Puzhou. They'll keep going north. How should we deal with them this time? What's your plan? "
Wang Zongxi asked.
Everyone in the hall had fierce looks in their eyes.
The whole family hated Du Qi to the core because Du Qi had humiliated the Wang Family and made them the laughingstock of the noble families. One had to know that the Wang Family used to be the leader of the noble families and had a deep foundation.
This time around, even though the Wang Family was still the Wang Family, they were still greatly affected.
"Patriarch, in my opinion, this is very simple. We'll arrange for people to kill the Du Clan's people on the way to Daizhou, north of the Du Clan. "
Someone in the crowd spoke again.
The person who spoke was called Wang Yu. He was in his early thirties and was a generation younger than Wang Zongzhou and Wang Zongxi. However, within the Wang Clan, he was also the head of a branch and was in charge of a branch.
Wang Yu's words immediately gained the support of many people. Many members of the Wang Family began to chime in.
They all agreed with Wang Yu's suggestion.
"Patriarch, Wang Yu's suggestion is feasible, but it's not enough. Even if we arrange for people to assassinate Du Qi and the Du family, the problem is that no one can guarantee that the assassination will succeed. "
Among the crowd, someone on the left spoke.
His name was Wang Qiao.
He was of the same generation as Wang Zongxi, but he was only in his early thirties.
Wang Qiao's expression was gentle as she continued unhurriedly, "There is nothing that can guarantee success. In this world, there are always some coincidences that will mess up the plan. "
"Therefore, we must take precautions against the unexpected."
"Once the assassination of the Du Clan's people fails, it will be very difficult to assassinate them again. Therefore, I believe that we need to arrange for the Wang Clan's officials in Daizhou and mobilize those related to the Wang Clan to act against Du Ruhui. "
"As long as Du Ruhui is unable to move a single step in Daizhou, it will be difficult to carry out any of our plans. In the end, they will be thwarted. Moreover, if Du Ruhui is unable to resolve the chaos in Daizhou, the imperial court will punish him. "
Wang Qiao said, "This is my suggestion."
Wang Zongxi nodded. "Wang Qiao's words make sense. We must always be prepared for both sides. Once the assassination fails, we must consider the next step of the plan. I suggest that the person in charge of dealing with Du Qi be Wang Qiao. He will be in charge of all arrangements within Daizhou. "
Wang Qiao said, "Thank you, Patriarch!"
It was a good thing that he had something to do. Without Wang Zongxi's approval, he would never have succeeded.
After all, Wang Zongxi was the patriarch.
He had great authority.
With Wang Zongxi's help, he could take care of Wang Zongxi's matter. If Wang Zongxi helped him in the clan, then it would be much easier for him to do things in the future with King Wei in the clan.
Wang Zongxi said again, "The current situation is to assassinate the Du Clan people on the way. If we fail, then we will consider dealing with the Du Clan in Daizhou. This is the general direction of the plan. Do you have any objections? "
"No!"
Everyone answered in unison.
All of them agreed with the current arrangement.
Wang Zongxi said, "Fine, since it's like this, then let's start with the assassination plan. Previously, Wang Zongzhou mobilized twenty Crimson Wolves to deal with Du Qi. These people all died in Chang 'an. None of them returned. Now, to assassinate Du Qi, although there are still some Crimson Wolf elites in the clan, their numbers are too few. How do you think we should assassinate Du Qi? "
To assassinate, the specific strategy must be well planned.
If there were no specific details, even if the general direction was set, the plan could easily fail.
Wang Qiao said again, "Patriarch, I remember that there is a mountain called Bull Hengshan near the northern border of Puzhou. There is a group of bandits on this mountain. There are not many of them, but there are still more than a hundred of them. They are all extremely swift and fierce people. "
"The government has also tried to encircle them several times."
"But Bull Hengshan's terrain is dangerous, and the government has failed to encircle them several times. Why don't we arrange for people to go south to Puzhou and contact the bandit leader of Bull Hengshan and ask him to take action? "
Wang Qiao said, "We only need to spend some money and we can borrow a knife to kill the Du Clan people. This is a good deal."
"Good idea!"
Wang Zongxi said with a smile, "The matter of the assassination is settled. But who is willing to go to the bandit leader of Bull Hengshan? "
Wang Yu said, "Patriarch, I am willing to go."
He hoped to get Wang Zongxi's attention, because getting the clan's attention meant that he would have resources.
Wang Zongxi said, "Since that is the case, Wang Yu will go. This time, as long as the bandit leader of Bull Hengshan is successful, I will make the decision to give Wang Yu another hundred mu of land for his expenses. "
Wang Yu said excitedly, "Thank you, Patriarch."
For someone like Wang Zongxi, a hundred mu of land was actually very little. But to Wang Yu, those whom his uncle did not dote on and his grandmother did not love were very important resources.
So even if there were some difficulties in going south, Wang Yu was willing to go.
Wang Zongxi waved his hand and said, "Alright, everyone go and get ready to move."
"Yes!"
Everyone responded in unison.
Wang Qiao, Wang Yu, and the rest also left one after another.
In the hall, only Wang Zongxi was left. He was carefully thinking about the current situation and making preparations to deal with the Du Clan.
