The system is the king of the counterattack master

"What's the situation?!" Seeing Li Xiande appearing in this way, Han Xiaodong immediately became nervous. Could it be that Li Xiande discovered something and made a move in advance?
Just as surprised as he was, there was a room full of Patriarch Li and guests. It seemed that no one had expected this change.Everyone, you look at me and I look at you. There is doubt, fear, and anger in the eyes.But none of them was as calm as water. It can be seen that Li Xiande did not notify anyone in advance of his actions today.

"Check Li Haoran's whereabouts immediately." Han Xiaodong watched Li Xiande ignore everyone's questions and walked towards the Patriarch's seat, and immediately issued an order to K.

Li Xiande walked very calmly on the way to the seat in the middle of the room, like the emperor who was enthroned for the first day, completely ignoring anyone's reaction, until he walked in front of the chair, he turned around and hugged everyone punch:
"Everyone, I'm sorry, my third brother suddenly fell ill and was really unable to attend, so I was entrusted to preside over today's meeting. Don't be suspicious, everyone. The head of the Li family is still my third brother. Please sit down."

After finishing speaking, he pressed the two sides with his hands, motioning for everyone to sit down.

What he said was very meaningful, especially the understatement now, which made everyone's faces change slightly.

What does it mean to be his third brother now?Who is that tomorrow?Who is the day after tomorrow?Everyone who came to the meeting was obviously invited to discuss Li Zhizhong's affairs, but they didn't expect that now that the style of painting has changed, they actually have the intention of trying to usurp the throne.

"Second brother, even if the patriarch is unwell and asks you to do it for me, you shouldn't sit in that chair, right?"

As soon as Li Xiande finished speaking, the third person on his right spoke.

This old man looked younger than Li Xiande, with short silver hair and a coat, he looked very energetic. He looked like a very old-fashioned person.

He suddenly raised this question, in fact, he was secretly competing with Li Xiande. In most organizations, sometimes an object represents an identity.

For example, the emperor's jade seal and the general's military talisman are all things that can represent identity. Once you lose these things, no matter who you used to be, you are nothing at this moment.But as long as these things are in hand, even a coup d'etat that everyone despises may easily succeed. This is where the traditional organizational form is most prone to problems.

When Li Xiande heard someone questioning him, he didn't look directly at him, but glanced at the person out of the corner of his eye, and said with a chuckle: "Oh? Then fifth, where do you think I should sit? I'm entrusted by the third. On behalf of the Li family to greet the guests of other families, do you want me to move a Maza at the door? Or do you want to sit in this seat?"

These words are very vicious, but they are impeccable. Today's situation is quite special. There are people from the other three families of the four major families present. For a chair, replace the owner's chair with the chair the surrogate usually sits on.

But when everyone turned their attention to the seat where Li Xiande used to sit, they found that there was only one table in that seat, and the chair had been removed at some point, so everyone knew in their hearts that this was obviously a situation that had already been arranged .

"You...you don't have a seat yourself?! What do you mean by taking your own chair away at this juncture?" The white-haired old man knew that Li Xiande did it on purpose, and his head was about to burst into flames. .

But Li Xiande didn't care at all, just chuckled and said: "My chair happened to be broken, I took it for repairs and haven't got it back yet. Because of this, I didn't want to come today, but the third brother suddenly felt unwell, and asked I held today's meeting on my behalf, and I have no choice but what do you think I can do?"

This is obviously nonsense, when it is not broken, but at this moment, the chair is broken. If you say that there is nothing wrong with it, no ghost will believe it.

Even if everyone knew this kind of thing from the beginning, no one dared to speak easily.And it's not easy for people outside the Li family to meddle in the housework within the Li family; and the people of the Li family have always known the character and methods of the second master, and they dare not speak nonsense without the exact order of the patriarch. , can only wait and see the development of the situation.

Facing the changing situation in front of him, Han Xiaodong couldn't help being upset.This is clearly testing the bottom line of everyone, from pretending to be a horse to killing the master and usurping the throne is only one step away.That's how Zhao Gao seized power from Qin Ershi back then. This kind of thing is definitely not uncommon in history, but this Li Xiande's method is more blatant.

The short-haired old man was trembling with anger, but he couldn't speak a word. Seeing that the other patriarchs in the meeting room didn't respond, he snorted angrily, turned around and was about to leave the meeting room, but he didn't want to be stopped by the two bodyguards at the door way to go.

"What are you going to do?! Do you want to commit murder in broad daylight!" The old man glared at the two bodyguards, his lips trembling in anger, but the two bodyguards didn't say a word, and they didn't intend to move away.

"Ah, ah, Uncle Wu, what are you doing? You are still playing childish temper when you are old. If you have something to say, please say it." Just when everyone didn't know which direction the situation was going to develop, they kept silent. Eighth Master stood up from the chair.

The bodyguards on both sides of him hurriedly smoothed the creases on his clothes.Just watching his bodyguards busy for a while, until they were done, Ba Ye slowly walked in front of the old man.

Pulling his arm with his hand, he said with a smile: "Didn't the second master also say that the patriarch asked him to act as an agent, and he is not willing to sit in that seat? You are making such a fuss, not to embarrass the second master and the patriarch How about this? After this meeting is over, how about I make a bargain and go to see the patriarch with you? But when the time comes, don’t talk about your performance today, and get angry with Patriarch Li later, then your sin will be big."

Fat Ba Ye was smiling when he spoke, but Han Xiaodong could hear clearly, he had a knife inside and out of what he said.

He called the old man Fifth Uncle, but he called Li Xiande Second Master, so the closeness and distance can be seen right now.At the same time, he also promised the old man that after the meeting, we will go to see the patriarch together, and when the time comes, we will know immediately whether the second master is falsely preaching the imperial decree or is really acting as an agent.

At the same time, he came here to represent the Duanmu family, and he dared to say that the second master didn't want to sit in this position in front of everyone, the relationship here is very delicate.Obviously, while appeasing the old man and resolving the embarrassment, he also gave Li Xiande a very cryptic warning:

Don't make trouble, my Duanmu family has not agreed to you to sit in this seat!
