Chapter 170
When Chen Jingan chose to reveal his true intentions, the outcome of this matter was already doomed.
Only one day later.
Uncle Chen San took a carriage and arrived at a mountain villa outside the city of Qinghe County.
As for the position of the head of the third house, it was held by Uncle Chen San's eldest son, a cousin of Chen Jingan.
So far, Chen Jingan sent Chen Mingfeng's direct elders back.
On the surface, this matter had no impact on the Chen family.
But Uncle Chen San's resignation as the head of the third house and his move out of the fairy family compound could not be hidden from the eyes and ears of a group of senior officials.
They are not fools.
Especially the people of the first and second houses, they are close to each other, and they are also the most affected by the threat of the third house.
On the other hand, the fourth and fifth houses are directly protected by Chen Jingan.
Uncle Chen San has deliberately avoided them.
Unexpectedly, his plan was strangled in the cradle by Chen Jing'an before it could be put into practice.
The lesson of Uncle Chen San also confirmed one thing.
That is, relying on seniority will not work in front of Chen Jing'an.
His blow seemed to hit Uncle Chen San and the third room, but in fact it also had the effect of shaking the first and second rooms.
Today, the third room threatened the immortals, so Chen Jing'an directly came forward to suppress it.
In the future, if the first and second rooms also violated the rules inadvertently, I am afraid that the end would not be too good.
...
As soon as Uncle Chen Er got the news, he summoned his son "Chen Jinghuai" who was away.
Chen Jinghuai got a job managing the spirit mine because of his face.
This job was simple, just responsible for surveillance.
Moreover, sometimes you can also make a lot of money from it.
Uncle Chen has always known about this.
But Chen Jingan didn't mention it, and Chen Jinghuai kept a certain sense of propriety, so Uncle Chen simply fumbled around, and sometimes helped cover up.
He also wanted to let Chen Jinghuai save a sum of spiritual stones while he was still there.
So that when he was gone in the future.
Chen Jinghuai would also have a sum of spiritual stones as a way out.
However, after today's actions, Uncle Chen dared not be lucky anymore.
He knew that he had some feelings in front of Chen Jingan.
But Chen Jinghuai, this kid's temper is really unpleasant, and his hands and feet are really dirty.
If he doesn't admit his mistakes now and settle the accounts of greed in the past.
After a hundred years, Chen Jinghuai may become the next typical example of killing a chicken to scare the monkey.
Uncle Chen didn't dare to be sure before.
But now, he no longer dares to use friendship to gamble with Chen Jingan's ideas.
The first and second houses thought of the same thing.
Under Chen Jingyang's order, a thorough investigation from top to bottom was also started.
If there are any crimes, tell the truth.
Now they still have the hope of "no punishment for the masses" and "leniency for confession", and it is hard to say if they are caught again in the future.
...
Chen Jing'an had expected the movements of these two branches.
But he did not expect that his father would come to him because of this matter.
This should be asked together with the fifth branch, right?
Father Chen is not so confident when facing his son now.
He is the county governor, and Uncle Chen San is an official under him. It is definitely a lie to say that Father Chen did not know about the whole process.
If the third branch really fights with the other two branches, the fourth branch is suspected of "taking advantage of the situation".
Chen Jing'an does not deny this possibility.
Because with his father's shrewdness, it is really possible to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight.
After all, before his own family rises.
The fourth and fifth houses also took a wait-and-see attitude when facing the dispute between the first and third houses for the head of the family.
He is not always impartial.
There is a difference between his biological father and his third uncle.
Moreover, it is not wrong to sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight. Compared with "seizing power", it is of another nature.
At most, it can only be said that his father is self-protective and unwilling to take responsibility.
Chen Jing'an has no intention of making use of this matter, but today's incident has also made him alert. He asked his father to help supervise and notify in the future, and leave the offending things to himself.
As for the confession of the first and second houses.
Chen Jing'an received the stolen money, recorded half of it in the public account of the fairy clan, and distributed the remaining half to the fairy seedlings who did not participate in it.
Just think of it as the clan leader buying people's hearts.
As for those clan members who committed crimes.
Chen Jing'an asked him to record the crimes himself and put them away.
If he committed the crime again, his property would be confiscated, and he and his descendants would be expelled from the clan and never return.
Compared with the previous drastic measures against the third house, this was considered a gentle move.
At this point, the storm caused by the three spiritual roots was declaredEnd.
Chen Jingan placed Chen Mingfeng alone and taught him various herbal books on alchemy in advance, starting with the theory.
The specific teaching will be discussed after returning to the capital.
From beginning to end, Chen Mingfeng, the person involved, did not feel much about the changes in the third house.
At his age.
All he could see was that his great-grandfather went out for cultivation. He still needed to be tempered to understand the doorway.
…
On Songzhu Mountain.
After cleaning up his hands, Chen Jingan came to check the spiritual medicine field planted by Chen Qingzhi.
From his perspective as a second-level alchemist.
These spiritual medicines are growing well.
Chen Jingan asked, "How's your practice of the 'Wanhua Chunsheng' that I sent back to you last time?"
Chen Qingzhi answered truthfully, "I have mastered the secret method. The secret method can stimulate the birth of spirits and ripen spiritual medicines, but it requires spiritual power as consumption."
Hearing this, Chen Jingan immediately threw him a few bottles of recovery pills.
Then, he took a few spiritual medicines with weak vitality and asked him to stimulate the birth of spirits.
Chen Qingzhi did so.
When the "Wanhua Chunsheng" was running, a touch of spiritual light burst out from Chen Qingyi's fingertips, turning into misty starlight and falling on the surface of the spiritual medicine.
In an instant, the spiritual medicine that had originally wilted was full of vitality.
Unfortunately, it didn't last long because Chen Qingzhi's spiritual power was exhausted and he stopped casting the spell.
Chen Jing'an frowned slightly: "Can it only last this long?"
Chen Qingzhi nodded: "It's mainly due to my strength. I'm only at the third level of Qi training. If the realm is higher, the strength and time of this secret method can be extended."
Hearing this, Chen Jing'an's eyes moved: "Then if you want to ripen the second-level spiritual medicine, what realm do you need?"
"At least the late stage of Qi training."
Chen Qingzhi gave an answer that he thought was safe, but soon reacted: "This secret method can only be cultivated by the wood spirit body. Dad gave this thing to me, is it because he needs me to do something?"
Chen Jing'an knew that he was [wise and demonic], and did not hide it: "Your secret method may be of great use to Dad in the future. Now, for you, if you can use the spiritually damaged foundation-building spiritual medicine, then it will be easier for the clan to gather the materials for the foundation-building pill."
"When the time comes, you can break through to the foundation-building realm and help me."
