C89 upper echelons of the family congregated
"Young miss, Wu Hao's shrewdness has exceeded our expectations, it's too deep, too scheming. Before this, he had been hiding it well, and this subordinate had only heard some news from the outside only two days ago!"
"It looks like, if this is the case, then we can only use Wu Haoran to ruin his future." He had already planned for the worst. Regardless of whether Wu Hao could return from the outside, she had already prepared a path of self-destruction for him.
However.
However, what she didn't know was that she was designing Wu Hao, and why Wu Hao wasn't designing her step by step as she walked towards that trap that she would never be able to turn around.
City Lord's Mansion
In the huge City Lord's Mansion.
With a solemn expression, Wu Haoran stood on the balcony of a building with his hands behind his back, looking at the Royal City Lake in the distance.
Behind him, a guard reported everything that Wu Hao had returned to his residence, then slowly retreated.
His expression did not change.
After a long time.
He slowly withdrew his gaze.
With a flick of his sleeve, a secret letter appeared within his hand. As he looked at the secret letter in his hand, a trace of disdain flashed within his eyes.
It had been more than two months since he had left for the capital of the Cloud Empire, although he was not in the midst of Royal City or even Wu manor.
However, he was well aware of every movement in the Wu Clan.
A secret letter was written on which was the current situation of the Wu Clan.
Only he himself knew who wrote it, and no one else knew.
"Hao Er, I never thought that your father would not be home for just two months and you have already turned the entire Wu family upside down. You sure are capable, to not have any mercy towards your own brothers?" He read the contents of the secret letter and muttered to himself.
"How do you want me to choose? All these years, I have always wanted you to lead an ordinary life, to lead a life without any accomplishments, and not to be separated from the world. Why don't you understand my intentions? " He sighed and the secret letter in his hand turned into a ball of flame, turning into ashes in the blink of an eye.
The next morning.
Wu manor, in the main hall of a family in a courtyard.
Early in the morning, there were plenty of people.
The entire Wu family, as well as the older juniors of the family s, gathered in the main hall.
Just last night, when the sky was still dark, Wu Hao's old servant received Wu Haoran's summons. This morning, in the main hall of the Wu manor, he passed down the judgement that had violated the clan rules.
At this moment, over a hundred of the Wu family's elders were gathered in the huge main hall.
Of course, there were also middle-aged men of the same generation as Wu Haoran. As for the disciples of the younger generation, none of them had the qualifications to be present.
These people were normally not within the Wu manor in front of him, but were within the true Wu manor s of the eastern city.
Because Wu Haoran had become the city lord's mansion, he chose to build a mansion in the city lord's mansion for convenience.
It could be considered a branch of the Wu Clan.
Normally, the upper echelons of the Wu Clan wouldn't interfere in minor matters. However, today was the day that the direct line of descent of the Wu Clan violated the clan rules. Since they were invited, they had no choice but to attend.
Although they were all there, but a large majority of them did not give Jiao Ruhua any face.
The entire city knew the other party's character, let alone them?
If it weren't for the fact that the other party was currently a Lady Wu with a powerful identity, they would have already been unaccustomed to it and come out to denounce him.
But now, one of the main branches of the clan had been abolished and become a fool, while the other had violated the clan rules, cutting off the Wu Clan's inheritance.
In front of the hall, there was a large chair made of yellow rosewood. Wu Haoran sat on it and looked at the clan higher ups below with a solemn expression.
Below, First Lady s sat down on both sides. The former had an unfriendly face, while the latter had a calm expression.
According to the predetermined time, it was about to happen. Only Wu Hao, the true owner, was missing, so he had yet to come.
However, it was at this time that footsteps came from outside the door. Wu Hao, who had an extraordinary temperament and was dressed in white, walked in with his hands behind his back as if he was a child from a rich family.
The upper echelons of the Wu family raised their eyebrows. When they saw his appearance, a hint of surprise flashed across their eyes.
His sudden rise to prominence, as one of the higher echelons of the clan, had only been hearsay before, and had never been seen before. Now that they had met him, all of their previous imaginations had been completely overturned.
In their minds, Wu Hao should be dressed in plain clothes, looking bashful and weak.
However, looking at this temperament now, it was completely the appearance of a rich family's child, without any signs of poverty or desolation.
Even when Wu Haoran saw Wu Hao, he instantly straightened his body and a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.
Obviously, he was also rather surprised.
"Junior Wu Hao greets all the grandfather and grandmother, uncles and aunties, uncles and aunties!" Entering the hall, facing everyone's gaze, Wu Hao cupped his fists and politely greeted the Wu family higher ups one by one.
The talent displayed was something that only the Wealthy children had.
In this way, many people secretly nodded their heads. Wu Hao's actions had left a good impression on them.
When he arrived at the bottom of Wu Haoran's body, he was only ten meters away from him.
Once again, he cupped his fists, and Wu Hao bowed to him.
"Unfilial son Wu Hao greets father, aunt and third mother." He then respectfully paid his respects.
Wu Haoran squinted his eyes as he scrutinized his every move.
After a long time.
A solemn look flashed in his eyes.
"Evil son Wu Hao, do you know why I summoned the upper echelons of the clan today, and why you have come here?" he asked suddenly.
Hearing that, Wu Hao cupped his fists again, and replied calmly: "I know, it's all about me breaking the family rules, and the matter that I need to be punished!"
Such a display.
His calm demeanor and the words he replied made quite a few of the upper echelons of the Wu Clan cast sidelong glances at him.
Below.
A few old men with white hair sat together. When Wu Hao replied, one of them opened his mouth and sighed to the few people beside him: "This guy isn't simple! "Just by the fact that he is able to do this, the old me feels that by expelling him, he might be able to break the foundation of our Wu clan!"
Hearing this, the few of them did not reply, but they secretly nodded to him.
Clearly, they had the same thought.
The Wu family had spent countless of generations of effort in order to cultivate such an outstanding disciple like Wu Haoran. Now, other than him, the rest of the young generation of the Wu family were all unpresentable, including Wu Yu, who had become a useless fool.
However, just now, they had seen Wu Haoran's shadow of that year on his body.
They had lived for a long time, had observed countless people, and were very confident in their judgement.
"Good …" "Since you know, then your father will ask you personally in front of all the higher-ups of the Wu family today why you broke the clan's rules?" Wu Haoran's expression turned solemn as he asked.
However.
Wu Hao's following reply caused everyone to raise their eyebrows once again.
Replying to father, your son said that he knew that the reason you summoned the upper echelons of your clan was to violate the clan rules, but he did not admit that your son had truly violated the clan rules.
