Chapter 52: Gu Family's Thoughts
On the second day, the entire Yuncang Emperor was already full of rumors.
"Have you heard, there was an accident at the Yun Clan Auction House yesterday, and several Tianzun masters fought fiercely, directly razing the auction house to ruins!"
"Why don't you know! I heard that there are still the three princes of the Heavenly Star Kingdom!"
In restaurants, tea shops, and even gambling houses, there are people talking: "It seems to be for Nirvana!"
Someone immediately said: "You are behind the news, at first it was for Nirvana Dan, but then a mysterious man appeared, and he directly defeated the master of the Heavenly Star Kingdom with one move, but do you know who that person's target is?"
Immediately, someone asked curiously: "Isn't it for Nirvana Dan?"
"I'll tell you, it's for the second miss of the Gu family, Gu Lanyi!"
"What, that unmarried woman who is pregnant? Impossible, a super master, and a strong man who seems to have a big background, would actually take a fancy to the second miss of the Gu family?"
"Doesn't Miss Gu Er have a son, I guess it's that man's!"
"Oh my God, could it be that Miss Gu Er was taken by some family prince or a member of the royal family in the first place? This is terrible, the Gu family is only afraid that the tide is going to rise......
Similar rumors were like a gust of wind, blowing throughout the entire imperial capital of Yuncang Kingdom. From the royal family, such as Long Qianli, Emperor Yuncang, etc., including the eight great families to speculate, down to the peddlers and pawns, ordinary people are talking about it.
Anyway, it's none of my business, it's not a big deal to watch the play, countless people are discussing the follow-up of this matter after dinner, so that some of the limelight blew into the Gu family, and some people who listened to it were envious, jealous and hateful, and became more and more jealous of Gu Lanyi.
Isn't it the abandoned girl who was once kicked out of the house, and one day she is going to heaven, and all the strong and powerful people around her are they can't even think of!
Soon, everyone in the Gu family gathered together to discuss countermeasures on the seriousness of the matter.
Gu Taiming has always disliked hearing gossip, but he still has heard of what happened in the imperial capital, after all, yesterday, several super-powerful earth-shattering movements smashed the Yun family's auction house into ruins.
"Big brother, what do you say is the relationship between that mysterious man and Gu Lanyi? I heard that the man was going to snatch the child at that time, if it was really the father of the wild seed, then we ......"
Gu Hongkai frowned slightly after hearing this, he had his own calculations in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "This person's cultivation is profound, and his background is not small, if he can recruit into our family, then we are not far from the first position of the eight great families." ”
When everyone heard this, they all felt that it made sense.
The resources Gu Lanyi held in her hands, as well as her ability, really made everyone very greedy. These should have belonged to their Gu family, but Gu Lanyi, a stinky girl, only had money in her eyes and no family affection.
Every time I ask her for some elixir, it's like begging for an ancestor, and I'm going to die of grievance.
After pondering for a moment, Gu Hongkai was unwilling after all: "Don't worry, I will personally say it today, and I will definitely let her agree!"
Gu Hongkai thought that as the head of the family, Gu Lanyi would give him a little thin noodles, not to mention that he was also good for her.
Soon arrived at Zhilan Courtyard, Gu Hongkai saw Gu Lanyi's mother and son playing in the courtyard, Gu Lanyi pushing the swing, Gu Xiaotianle giggled, and there were two of her followers standing next to him.
"Second niece!" Standing at the door, Gu Hongkai coughed vigorously twice.
Gu Lanyi frowned, pulled the swing, and turned around slowly: "Uncle...... What are you doing here today?"
Gu Xiaotian got off the swing and immediately hugged Gu Lanyi's legs: "I won't find a stepfather for Xiaotian again!"
I heard that Xiaotian's father has returned, so Xiaotian naturally wants to live with his father in the future. ”
Gu Hongkai looked at Gu Xiaotian with a smile on his face, and suddenly felt that this little bastard was not so much of an eyesore. If that powerful man was Xiaotian's father, then Gu Xiaotian naturally couldn't be treated in the same way.
"Xiaotian, every child has to live with his father, what about you, do you want to be with your father?" Gu Hongkai was full of smiles, like a big bad wolf who wanted to coax the little white rabbit.
Gu Xiaotian tilted his head strangely: "Uncle, you are laughing so strangely, is your face cramping?"
"You kid......" Gu Hongkai almost slapped him when he heard it.
No one in the Gu family has ever dared to treat him, the head of the family, big or small, he is rare to be amiable once, and he is actually said to have a cramp in his face?
"Xiaotian, the eldest uncle is fine, I just want to ask you, do you want your biological father?"
On the side, Gu Lanyi suddenly felt that Gu Hongkai's attitude was wrong, so he pulled his son and hugged him, frowning and said, "Uncle, what do you want to say!"
Seeing Gu Lanyi's alert appearance, Gu Hongkai could only change the target of lobbying, and sneered: "Lanyi, because of Xiaotian, you have suffered many grievances over the years, and the uncle knows it." Now that Xiaotian's father has appeared, do you think you should let him join our Gu family? In this way, you don't have to be alone, Xiaotian can also have a father. ”
Gu Lanyi's eyes widened in surprise, with a hint of disbelief on her face, feeling that Gu Hongkai came to find her, and actually hit the idea on that man?
She couldn't avoid it, Gu Hongkai also treated that person as a fat sheep, don't die too quickly, right?
Gu Lanyi sneered and said unceremoniously: "Uncle, it's not dark yet, and you're starting to dream! First, I'm just temporarily living in Gu's house, and I may leave at any time, so I don't have to worry about me." Second, that person has nothing to do with me, and he still robs my son with me, do you think I might let Xiaotian get close to him?"
Gu Hongkai was stunned when he heard this, he was used to Gu Lanyi's attitude, and he didn't care.
As long as he can recruit people back, this is enough, he doesn't want to give up such a mysterious powerhouse, otherwise it will be the loss of the Gu family.
Gu Hongkai laughed dryly twice, and continued to persuade: "Lanyi, Xiaotian is the child of our Gu family, naturally it can't be snatched away so easily! But this person is Xiaotian's biological father after all, as a woman, it's not good for you to get pregnant before marriage......"
"I think that at the beginning, the whole family drove me away, regardless of the call of family affection, why didn't you feel bad?"
“......”
"I survived by luck, and if I have some ability, you want to use it unceremoniously?" Gu Lanyi looked at Gu Hongkai, who had an embarrassed face, and said coldly: "Uncle, being a man is not so shameless, right?"
"Second niece, I'm your uncle, you haven't even forgotten your humility? If it weren't for the Gu family, your mother would have died a long time ago, would you still be able to see her?"
"Hehe, if it weren't for my mother's sake, how do you think the elixir came from these days?"
In the face of Gu Lanyi's ruthlessness, Gu Hongkai's suppressed anger was almost uncontrollable.
Even if he saw Emperor Yuncang, he had never suffered such a great humiliation, and right now, a junior of the Gu family dared to shout at him like this, if it weren't for the mysterious powerhouse behind Gu Lanyi, he really wanted to teach her a good lesson.
"Second niece, don't be too selfish, you are a person after all, how can you not be as strong as the family, do you really want to share with the Gu family and remember the past grievances for the rest of your life?"
Looking at Gu Hongkai's blackened face, Gu Lanyi didn't care at all: "I still have to play with my son, if the uncle still wants to talk about it, I won't accompany him." ”
Seeing that Gu Lanyi was about to leave, Gu Hongkai hurriedly said, "Wait!"
Looking back, Gu Lanyi was already impatient: "What is the uncle?"
"Okay, I only ask you for one thing, second niece!"
With his fists clenched, Gu Hongkai clenched his teeth, and said word by word: "In the past, the Gu family is sorry for you and your mother, and I apologize to you here." But I have a request, as long as you help the Gu family through this Eight Great Families Qualifying Competition, if you can rank first, you can do whatever you want in the future, even if I give you the position of the head of the Gu family. ”
"Oh?" Gu Lanyi couldn't help but move his eyes.
Although she doesn't care about the position of the head of the Gu family, it seems that it is not bad if her mother can become the head of the family.
Seeing that Gu Lanyi was a little moved, Gu Hongkai said even more seriously: "I promise, as long as you ......"
At this moment, there was a rapid sound of footsteps behind him, only to hear someone shouting from afar: "The head of the house, the head of the house! ”
What? There's someone in the palace?
Gu Hongkai couldn't persuade anymore, and when he turned around, he saw that the housekeeper came with a person who looked like a eunuch.
When someone approached and saw the appearance of this eunuch clearly, Gu Hongkai suddenly smiled: "Oh, isn't this Gonggong Liu, thank you, how can you run in person." ”
Gonggong Liu smiled and said, "Master Gu, the miscellaneous family is here to invite Second Miss Gu on the orders of His Majesty." ”
Looking like he was not free, he hurriedly went to Gu Lanyi after answering a sentence, and the smile on his face was even more respectful.
"Second Miss Gu, Your Majesty is invited. ”
Facing people from the palace, Gu Lanyi was not interested, but she didn't want to entangle with Gu Hongkai, so she said, "Your Majesty has something to look for me?"
Gonggong Liu hurriedly said: "Didn't Second Miss Gu refine a pill for the second prince some time ago? After Your Majesty took it, she praised it greatly, this time I specially ordered the miscellaneous family to come and invite the second young lady into the palace, Your Majesty wants to reward you." ”
"Really?" Gu Lanyi remembered what happened before.
Gu Hongkai on the side was even more heart-pounding when he heard this, he wanted to make a move on Gu Lanyi just now, but he didn't expect her to fall into His Majesty's eyes, but I was afraid that in the future, he would be more careful with Gu Lanyi.
Since it is a commendation, I am afraid that it will be beneficial to take it, so Gu Lanyi is happy not to be in vain, so he immediately agreed.
"Mother, are you going to enter the palace again? Xiaotian hasn't played enough last time. Gu Xiaotian smiled happily as soon as he remembered what happened last time.
"Let's go, son, my mother will take you to play. ”
didn't mind Gu Lanyi taking his son and bringing two followers into the palace, Father-in-law Liu knew very well that the black and strong man beside Gu Lanyi was a super master at the Tianzun level, not something ordinary people could afford to provoke.
"Miss Gu Er, please. Father-in-law Liu smiled more attentively, and his face seemed to bloom.
