Chapter 469: Wife, I'm not sleepy
Several elders who had a good relationship with Tang Jihuai realized that they were still wearing the mourning chrysanthemums he had prepared on their chests. They were shocked and hurriedly took the flowers off, hiding them carefully.
Too terrifying!
If Tang Bingyan discovered this, it would probably be them holding a funeral tomorrow.
"Tang Bingyan, you can't treat me like this?" Tang Jihuai, who had been waiting for Tang Zhipeng to plead for him, saw his hope dashed and stared at Tang Bingyan in disbelief.
He didn't believe that Tang Bingyan would actually force him into a dead end.
He was an elder of the Tang family, Tang Bingyan's Sixth Grand-Uncle. Even if he made a mistake, he shouldn't be subjected to the punishment of being removed from the genealogy.
"Without me, there would be no Tang family today? Don't think that just because you are in power now, you can do whatever you want!"
"When your father died accidentally, if I hadn't taken on the heavy responsibility to help Second Brother stabilize the situation in all parties of the Tang family, the Tang family today would have long since fallen apart. You are crossing the river and tearing down the bridge as soon as you take over the Tang family; you will suffer retribution!"
About to be removed from the genealogy, Tang Jihuai couldn't care less. He tore off his mask with Tang Bingyan, revealing the greedy and arrogant side of his true nature.
Tang Laoyezi frowned, a flash of disgust crossing his eyes.
He knew his Sixth Brother's personality best.
Over the years, Tang Jihuai had been making small moves behind the scenes, winning over family elders and group executives; he had seen it all.
It was just out of consideration for old feelings that he chose to turn a blind eye.
But Tang Jihuai was like a wild wolf that couldn't be tamed. His appetite grew larger and larger. He wasn't satisfied with the position of elder and even wanted to control the entire Tang family.
Now that Tang Jihuai had completely exposed his true nature, he would no longer be soft-hearted or worry about that bit of brotherhood that had long since ceased to exist.
"Tang Bingyan, a little girl like you shouldn't have inherited the family business. Your duty was to relinquish power early and go home to serve your husband and raise your children. If a woman like you keeps holding onto the power of the Tang family, the Tang family will truly be ruined by you!"
"Second Brother, have you also become senile? Who helped you build this empire in the first place? Are you letting this girl Tang Bingyan act recklessly now because you want to chill the hearts of all the high-level members of the Tang family?"
Tang Jihuai was like a madman, not only attacking Tang Bingyan but also trying to sow discord and drag the other Tang family elders into the water.
Tang Laoyezi was completely disappointed in him and directly ordered the bodyguards beside him.
"Someone, take him away. Don't let him ramble anymore."
Hearing this, the two bodyguards immediately stepped forward and, without question, dragged Tang Jihuai by his arms toward the outside.
Tang Jihuai was unwilling. While struggling desperately, he continued to curse.
"Tang Bingyan, you don't distinguish right from wrong and mistreat your meritorious officials. Both you and your pretty boy will suffer retribution!"
"Your good days are coming to an end. Without me, let's see how long the Tang family can linger on! Hahahahaha..."
Tang Jihuai seemed to have gone completely mad. He was still cursing as he was dragged away, yet no one took the words of a stray dog to heart.
Tang Bingyan said she would remove Tang Jihuai, so she immediately had A Wei strip him of all his authority in the Tang Group and go to the Tang family ancestral hall to remove his name from the genealogy.
Such thunderous momentum made the remaining Tang Jihuai factions in the group not dare to act rashly.
But Xu Tian was vaguely worried. It wasn't that he sympathized with Tang Jihuai, but because his memories from his previous life told him that Tang Jihuai was not the mastermind behind the plot against the Tang family; the real mastermind was someone else.
Now that Tang Jihuai had been driven out of the Tang family, it meant that the clue on him was broken. Trying to find out the mastermind behind the scenes would be difficult.
"Bingyan, let's leave first. The environment here is damp and heavy with yin energy. You just woke up; don't catch a cold." Tang Laoyezi felt sorry for his granddaughter and, seeing that Tang Jihuai had been dealt with, spoke up immediately.
"Mm, Grandpa, we'll go back now." Tang Bingyan took Xu Tian's hand in front of everyone, and the two walked outside together.
Seeing Tang Bingyan leave first, the other high-level Tang family members let out a long sigh of relief and left one after another.
Gu Beicheng, dressed in black and mixed in the crowd, watched Tang Bingyan, who was holding hands with Xu Tian and leaving, from afar. His eyes darkened, and then he also disappeared into the crowd.
Gu family.
"Beicheng, what exactly happened to the Tang family? Why was Tang Jihuai removed from the genealogy?" Gu Qiankun asked in a serious tone.
"Dad, Yanyan has woken up, and her body has recovered quite well. There is no life-threatening danger anymore." Gu Beicheng replied calmly.
"That girl has such a tough life!" Gu Qiankun said regretfully: "And Tang Jihuai, that piece of trash, got carried away before confirming that Tang Bingyan was definitely going to die. Now that he's been driven out of the Tang family, he deserves it!"
"Tang Jihuai is indeed useless." Gu Beicheng stood in front of Gu Qiankun with his head lowered, not knowing what he was thinking.
Gu Qiankun raised his eyes, looked at Gu Beicheng meaningfully, and then said.
"Since Tang Bingyan has a tough life, then we will continue to act according to the previous arrangements. After all, only this woman in the Tang family is useful to us now. You hurry up and take her down; don't affect our plan."
"Yes." Gu Beicheng replied: "I know what to do."
Tang family villa.
After returning, Tang Bingyan arranged for a doctor to give Xu Tian a full-body checkup and also ordered the kitchen to brew some cold-dispelling soup for him.
They hadn't seen each other for two days, and Tang Bingyan had just recovered from a serious illness. Xu Tian originally wanted to have a world for two with her, but he was directly pressed onto the bed by Tang Bingyan, forced to drink the whole bowl of soup.
"Wife, I..."
"Don't speak." Tang Bingyan's index finger pressed against his lips: "Sleep."
"I'm not sleepy..." Xu Tian was helpless.
"Sleep." Tang Bingyan's face was slightly cold. She forcefully tucked Xu Tian in and, before leaving, added: "You are not allowed to get up."
The Tang family's interrogation room was dark and damp. As soon as Tang Bingyan thought about Xu Tian actually staying in such a place for a day and a night, she wished she could directly cripple Tang Jihuai.
She returned to the study and immediately called A Wei.
Not long after, A Wei brought Chai Jianxin from the Tang family interrogation room to the study.
This Chai Jianxin was the interrogator who had been interrogating prisoners in the interrogation room earlier. He stood at the door, feeling constrained. Beads of sweat rolled down his forehead. Even though Tang Bingyan hadn't said anything or done anything, he felt a pressure that was enough to make people suffocate.
After Tang Jihuai was taken away, the two bodyguards who had locked Xu Tian in were also dealt with. As a witness, Chai Jianxin felt incomparably desperate inside.
Therefore, before Tang Bingyan could speak, he took the initiative to clarify for himself.
"Eldest Miss, it was all Tang Jihuai's own decision to invite Mr. Xu over. I know Mr. Xu's identity; even if I were given several guts, I wouldn't dare to make things difficult for him. I hope you can forgive me this once."
As soon as Chai Jianxin thought of the miserable wailing of those two bodyguards, his body couldn't help but tremble. ===== CHAPTER 470 =====
