The Qin family had failed to provoke the SI family and was instead suppressed by them. No matter how uncomfortable Duke Qin felt, he knew that he had to give face to the Wei family. Moreover, all three parties were important figures of the seven surnames and ten families. If they really started a fight, everyone would be embarrassed and there was no reason for them to continue being a joke.

As a result, the dispute between the SI Corporation and the Qin Corporation was settled by the Wei Corporation. Although the result was barely satisfactory, the matter was suppressed.

The SI clan got the thousand-year-old wild ginseng and the Qin clan got that string of Supreme-grade water-based incense Buddha beads. Both parties got something and it could be considered a happy ending.

However, because of this, the auction, which was not very popular at first, became more and more dull.

As the auctioneer, the Wei clan had carefully arranged the auction. In the end, not only did they not gain any benefits, but they had also suffered a huge loss in vain. Whether it was the rare thousand-year-old wild ginseng or the precious water agarwood Buddha beads, they were all precious treasures that were hard to find in the world. Not only were they given to others for nothing, they even had a child with the Qin and Si clans. How could the losses from this be explained clearly by a double loss?

Wei San felt bitter in his heart.

Wen Xinya had no idea how third Wei was feeling at this moment. With a smile, she said, " "However, although a thousand year old wild ginseng is hard to come by, it's not like you can't get it for me. Don't fight with the Qin family for such a small matter and let the people of the seven surnames and ten families see you as a joke."

She really wanted that thousand-year-old wild ginseng. During the previous bidding, she was determined to get it. However, after Duke Qin's interference, she weighed the pros and cons in her heart and decided that it was not necessary.

Although she was a little angry at Duke Qin's provocation, he was still an elder after all. He had not gone too far, so she could not be calculative with him.

Hence, although she was touched and touched that si yiyan had stood up for her, she did not approve of it. However, it was not easy for her to persuade him otherwise.

Si yiyan's eyebrows were long and black."This is the first time you've attended a gathering of the seven surnames and ten families. Who doesn't know how many people here have their eyes on you? There's always a need to weigh and calculate."

&Quot; Duke Qin and the SI family have always been at odds with each other. Even without the thousand-year-old wild ginseng, he would still find an opportunity to provoke you. If we tolerate Duke Qin, more people will come up to us. It's better to use Duke Qin to nip all the seeds of trouble in the bud. &Quot;

&Quot; moreover, thousand-year-old wild ginseng is very rare. This wild ginseng is very good in terms of age, weight, and preservation of medicinal effects. Even if I could get a thousand-year-old wild ginseng, it wouldn't be better than this one. In recent years, grandfather's health has been worse than before, and he needs this wild ginseng. &Quot;

His actions today were intended to establish Wen Xinya's authority among the various families.

The Qin family, which was second only to the SI family, was the best target to establish their authority. Since old Mr. Qin had used Xinya to provoke the SI family, wasn't he also using old Mr. Qin to establish his authority for Xinya?

He believed that today's matter would make the people of the seven surnames and ten families weigh the pros and cons in their hearts.

After his father married his mother, he had always hidden his mother well, afraid that others would know that this was his weakness. He did not know that this would expose his own weakness and help others to be more scheming.

Yet, he was not willing to do so.

In the past two years, there had been unrest within the various families. He was worried that they would set their sights on Wen Xinya. Hence, he brought Wen Xinya to the family gathering and openly showed her to everyone, telling them that Wen Xinya was his weakness.

A Dragon had a reverse scale that would hurt anyone who touched it!

Weakness and reverse scale were two different concepts.

When a person had a weakness, it proved that they had fear in their heart. As long as they had fear, they would be easily attacked.

However, once a person had a reverse scale, he was fearless and was an existence that others did not dare to easily clash with.

He was speaking from her perspective and thinking for her. Tears welled up in Wen Xinya's eyes. &Quot; the Qin family has been the leader of the seven families and ten families for a hundred years. Although they have been suppressed by the SI family, their strength is not to be underestimated. I know you don't take the Qin family seriously, but it is easy to Dodge a spear in the open, but hard to defend against an arrow in the dark. From what I see, that Duke Qin is quite overbearing. I'm afraid he already holds a grudge for today's matter. &Quot;

She was not afraid of Qin Shi.

However, the seven families and ten families had deep waters, and there was nothing wrong with being cautious.

&Quot; the SI clan and the Qin clan have always held grudges. They are harmonious on the surface but not on the inside. Even without this matter, the grudges would still be difficult to resolve. &Quot;

Si yiyan watched as she lowered her brows and her fair cheeks glowed under the bright light. She looked even more radiant and smooth, with a touch of concubine's Red, giving off a faint beauty. Her beautiful face had a rare gentleness and gentleness.

The woman in front of him was not only the person he loved, but also a rare Good Wife.

Wen Xinya looked up and said, " &Quot; from what I see, although that Duke Qin is not a narrow-minded person, he is also not a magnanimous person. Could it be that the grudges between the Qin and Si clans are because the SI clan suppressed the Qin clan and held the power of the seven surnames and ten clans? "

Previously, si yiyan had briefly told her about the seven families and the ten families, and he had also mentioned the Qin Corporation. Hence, she had some speculations about it. However, after hearing si yiyan's words, she felt that there was more to it.

Si yiyan nodded and told Wen Xinya about the conflict between the SI and Qin Corporation.

&Quot; that's true. After father's death, the SI clan was like a group of Dragons without a leader. The Qin clan colluded with a few of the seven surnames and ten families who had grudges with the SI clan to divide up the SI clan. This is against the rules. According to the rules set by our ancestors, no matter how much internal strife and disputes there are between the seven surnames and ten families, they must never have the idea of annexing each other. &Quot;

This rule was set by the highly respected ancestors of the seven families and ten families. It had been going on for hundreds of years, and no one had ever dared to violate it.

The Qin clan could be considered to have set a precedent.

Wen Xinya understood the deeper meaning behind this rule. &Quot; &Quot; I am afraid that the Qin clan's disobey of the ancestors 'will has caused dissatisfaction among many of the seven surnames and ten families! &Quot;

Si yiyan had said before that the seven families and ten families represented huge interests on the surface, but behind their birth and inheritance, it was to protect the land and the people. It would be against the main purpose if they swallowed each other.

However, she knew very well that the seven surnames and ten families represented a circle. In this circle, there were many other surnames that had been passed down for a long time. They could replace the surnames of the seven surnames and ten families.

It could be replaced.

They could not merge with each other.

Families with ancient heritage attached great importance to the will of their ancestors. Only those who were blinded by greed would go against the will of their ancestors.
