Chapter 2859 Someone's Scheme Is About to Fail

"Madam, at this hour?" the servant asked in surprise.

It was not early.

Although there was a two-hour time difference on the independent continent, it was already close to nine in the evening.

Everyone was preparing to rest.

But she wanted them to call the elders.

However, Xie Yun did not care. "Just tell them that I have something urgent to discuss with them."

"Yes, Madam." The servant did not say anything else and immediately went to make the calls.

Meanwhile, Xie Yun returned to her bedroom on the second floor and washed her face with cold water. Then, she took out the cosmetics and applied light makeup. Finally, she picked up the lipstick and gently applied it to her lips…

When she was done, she looked at the woman in the mirror. She looked much more energetic. At least, she was not as haggard as before.

Satisfied, Xie Yun picked up her handbag, put the lipstick inside, and walked towards Righteousness Hall with her head held high…

…

At this moment, the elders arrived at the Righteousness Hall.

They were called over by Ji Hongyuan in the day, and Xie Yun called them over in the night.

The elders discussed animatedly. They all thought that Xie Yun would try to persuade them again.

At this moment, Xie Yun walked in surrounded by the people Ji Lingfeng had left behind. "Uncles, I'm sorry for calling you over so late at night."

Smiling, coupled with her makeup, she looked radiant and completely different this morning.

The elders looked at each other, unable to tell what she was up to.

The leading elder coughed and awkwardly said, "I heard that you have something urgent to discuss with us?"

They still felt that Xie Yun wanted to convince them.

His expression gradually became serious, and he solemnly said, "I know you don't want to accept reality, but aren't we the same? We don't want to accept the fact that something happened to Patriarch and Young Master Nan! It's just that it has already happened. All we can do is try our best to minimize the impact." After reprimanding her, he took a deep breath and persuaded, "We don't necessarily have to replace the patriarch with Ji Ziyin.

"I know what you're worried about. You just think that what she did previously is too disgraceful. We also have this worry, so we're still discussing this matter…"

Of course, Xie Yun knew what they were planning. The corners of her lips curled up slightly to hide her disdain.

From the previous generation to Ji Lingfeng's generation, the direct bloodline was in charge.

Ji Lingfeng and the previous patriarch were unyielding, so the older generation did not have much say in the family.

But if Ji Ziyin ascended the throne…

With her status as a collateral relative, old bones like them could also have a say in the family. They could even take over and control the family through Ji Ziyin!

Therefore, how could they not be tempted in the face of huge benefits? Their so-called consideration and discussion were to appease her.

If possible, they wanted to directly support Ji Ziyin's rise!

Xie Yun was also a rare talent when she was young. It was just that she did not show her ability as much as Xie Tingyun did, but she was not an ignorant woman who could be controlled by others.

Facing the other party's aggressiveness, she appeared very calm and elegant as she smiled and interrupted him. "You've misunderstood."
