Chapter 274: Purpose
In the past, Cui Mingyuan and the people of the Cui family believed that Cui Ze was able to climb the big tree of the Tang Gate, probably because of his relationship with Tang Qiyun, the eldest lady of the Tang family.
But when Cui Mingyuan and Tang Liming talked about Cui Ze just now, Tang Liming didn't dare to call Cui Ze's name directly, and he was faintly very respectful of him in his words, which was not at all like the attitude of the Tang Sect master or elders.
It was also at this time that Cui Mingyuan learned that Cui Ze's identity in the Tang Gate was not simple.
Although Cui Mingyuan didn't know why Cui Ze let Tang Liming treat him with such an attitude, he and the Cui family did underestimate Cui Ze too much before.
"Old man, don't I have nothing to do with your Cui family at all, and what are you coming to me for this time?"
Cui Ze didn't want to go around in circles with Cui Mingyuan, so he said straight to the point.
Cui Ze used to have the name of the illegitimate son of the Cui family, but after the last incident, Cui Ze and the Cui family were also clear.
Now Cui Ze and the Cui family can indeed be said to have no relationship.
"This ...... I'm looking for you this time, but I actually have something to ask you for. ”
Cui Mingyuan hesitated for a moment, but finally spoke.
After all, he used to be the head of the Cui family who was in power, and now he wants Cui Mingyuan to bow his head to a junior, which still makes him a little embarrassed.
"Something to ask me?"
Hearing Cui Mingyuan's words, Cui Ze couldn't help but sneer, and didn't want to pay attention to the Cui family's life or death at all.
However, Cui Ze noticed that Cui Mingyuan's whole person seemed to be much older than before, which made Cui Ze's heart soften.
After all, Cui Mingyuan is the only person in the Cui family who is not bad about his predecessor, and Cui Ze has inherited the memory of his predecessor, so he will naturally be affected to a certain extent.
"You can talk about something, but I don't promise to say yes. ”
Cui Ze thought about it, and still said to Cui Mingyuan.
For Cui Mingyuan's sake, if this matter does not affect his own interests, Cui Ze can still help the Cui family one last time.
I believe that if the Cui family has something to do in the future, there will be no face to trouble Cui Ze again.
"That's ......"
Hearing Cui Ze's words, Cui Mingyuan's face was overjoyed, and he hurriedly talked about what happened to the Cui family recently.
It turned out that the Cui family's recent experience had to start after the Chu family and the Tang Sect formed an alliance.
After the alliance between these two forces last time, the Tang Sect had been preparing to expand outward, but the Chu family was actively preparing to embezzle other families in the Demon Capital.
For generations, the people of the Chu family have had the idea of dominating the entire demon capital.
However, in the past, the Chu family was afraid of the influence of the Tang Sect, and it was not good to do anything to other families in the Demon Capital, so as not to push these families to the side of the Tang Sect.
But now, the Tang Sect and the Chu family have formed an alliance, and the Chu family will naturally have no scruples if they make any moves against other families in the Demon Capital.
Although Qi Yin is now the acting head of the Chu family, Qi Yin has no suitable reason to stop these active expansion forces within the family.
In fact, even if Qi Yin was the real head of the family, there was no suitable reason to stop them from doing so, otherwise she would be the enemy of the entire Chu family.
The Chu family's large-scale expansion did bring great losses to the other forces in the Demon Capital.
Except for the Tang Sect, the other forces in the Demon Capital could not be compared with the Chu family at all, and they were defeated and retreated under the offensive of the Chu family, and the losses were very heavy.
Recently, many factories and companies have closed down, and the market has been completely occupied by the companies under the Chu family.
As a result, the Cui family has become a victim of the Chu family's expansion, and the family industry has shrunk by at least forty percent recently.
In fact, Cui Ze also learned some of this information from Tang Liming, and knew that many demon capital forces had asked for Tang Men.
These forces were even willing to take refuge in the Tang Sect, wanting to ask for the protection of the Tang Sect.
However, now that the Tang Sect has formed an alliance with the Chu family, it is naturally impossible to interfere with the actions of the Chu family.
Therefore, for these forces that came to ask for help, Tang Men has always ignored them.
Cui Ze naturally didn't care about this.
"I came here with a thick old face this time, just to ask Cui Ze for the sake of being a member of the Cui family, and help our Cui family. ”
Cui Mingyuan smiled bitterly and said to Cui Ze: "I don't want our century-old Cui family to be ruined like this. ”
Before coming to Tangmen, Cui Mingyuan actually just wanted to intercede with Tang Liming through Cui Ze and let Tangmen take care of the Cui family.
However, now that he realizes Cui Ze's true status in the Tang Sect, Cui Mingyuan puts more hope on Cui Ze.
"I'm afraid I can't promise you this. ”
After listening to Cui Mingyuan's request, Cui Ze thought about it for a while and directly refused.
Now that the Tang Sect and the Chu family have formed an alliance, if the Tang Sect interferes with the actions of the Chu family, it will undoubtedly be an act of rebellion to break the alliance.
Seeing that after Cui Mingyuan heard his words, a look of loss appeared on his face, and the whole person seemed to look even older, Cui Ze hesitated, but still explained to him: "I'll tell you the truth, now that our Tang Sect has formed an alliance with the Chu family, so ......"
Although not too many people have returned to the demon capital in this matter, there is no need to deliberately hide it, and it is nothing to tell Cui Mingyuan.
"What, the Tang Sect has actually formed an alliance with the Chu family!
Hearing Cui Ze's sudden news, Cui Mingyuan couldn't help but show a shocked look on his face.
The Chu family is the first family in the name of the Demon Capital, but the Tang Sect is the strongest underground force in the Demon Capital, and now that the two are united, who is still their opponent in the entire Demon Capital?
It's just that the Tang Sect and the Chu family have always been mortal enemies before, and the two have been fighting openly and secretly for so many years, no one would have imagined that they would suddenly form an alliance!
"No wonder many forces came to the Tang Sect for help before, but the Tang Sect has always ignored it, it turns out that you and the Chu family are allies!"
Cui Mingyuan smiled bitterly, with a sudden look on his face.
It stands to reason that it is impossible for the Tang Sect to watch the Chu family become bigger, and it will definitely take action to stop the expansion of the Chu family.
But recently, Tangmen has been very calm, and he has no intention of making a move, and Cui Mingyuan was originally very puzzled by this.
Now after hearing Cui Ze's words, he finally understood.
And it is precisely because he understands that Cui Mingyuan will be even more desperate for the future of the Cui family.
The Chu family, which has already formed an alliance with the Tang Sect, is not at all something that these forces in the Demon Capital can compete with, and the Cui family is naturally no exception.
If nothing else, the Cui family may be in a catastrophe this time, and the family industry may all have the surname Chu in the end.
"Now you understand, right? It is impossible for our Tang Sect to help you, otherwise it will be a breach of the covenant and a reversal. ”
Seeing the look on Cui Mingyuan's face, Cui Ze knew that he knew what was going on in this, and immediately got up and prepared to send off the guests.
