Chapter 173: You're Just a Guest

Hearing Shangguan Hong's words, the people in the hall suddenly burst into laughter, and while laughing, they also laughed at him-

"Who do you think the head of the Shangguan family is? Could it be Shangguan Hong who was kicked out of the house? ”

"Which horn is this, I don't even know if the head of the Shangguan family has changed."

"Shangguan Hong abandoned his wife for the love of his heart, and abandoned the Shangguan family for the sake of a woman, so he was abandoned by the Shangguan family and completely driven out of the family. It's all a few years ago, are you really ignorant of the way, or are you pretending to be stupid? ”

"Ha Luha, this is the funniest joke I've heard this year, you can just talk about it in our Liren Mansion, but don't talk nonsense in Jinming Mansion, otherwise, if the current Shangguan family master hears it, you will definitely not be able to eat and walk around."

The jokes of everyone, the ridicule of ridicule, and the contempt of contempt, although there was not a lot of malice, still made Shangguan Hong completely blush, almost embarrassed.

But, what made him even more angry was that it was not these people who mocked him, but the meaning of their words.

What are they talking about?

Obviously, he is the head of the Shangguan family, why is there another Shangguan family master?

Also, when was he kicked out of Shangguan's house? It's absolutely impossible.

His father and elders valued him, his mother loved him, and his younger brother Shangguan Yuan adored him, so how could he be driven out of the family?

This must be something wrong.

Shangguan Hong thought of all kinds of reasons to comfort himself, but he still couldn't suppress the panic in his heart.

He has become like this, if the Shangguan family abandons him again, he is afraid that he will never have the day to turn over.

How can this be?!

He absolutely did not allow it.

Shangguan Hong suppressed the panic in his heart, his ugly face eased slightly, and he barely showed a smile and said, "Has the head of the Shangguan family been replaced?" I just came back from Central Jizhou, and I don't know a lot about things in Shenzhou. ”

Hearing his explanation, everyone suddenly realized, and they didn't laugh at him much, and told him about what had happened in Shenzhou in the past few months.

"I see, no wonder you're so unheard. The head of the Shangguan family has indeed been replaced, and the current head of the Shangguan family is Shangguan Hong's younger brother Shangguan Yun. Someone explained.

"That's right, this Shangguan Yuan is much stronger than his big brother who loves the saint, at least he didn't ignore the family for the sake of women, on the contrary, since Shangguan Yuan took over, the whole Shangguan family has undergone a lot of changes, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is thriving. I believe that in a few years, the overall strength of the Shangguan family will definitely improve a lot. Someone else said, his mouth was full of admiration for Shangguan Yuan.

How so?

Hearing the exact answer, Shangguan Hong was stunned, no matter what, he had no way to accept this fact.

In his heart, although his younger brother is not bad, he is definitely not as good as himself in terms of cultivation and bearing, and his parents do not attach half of his attention to him. Therefore, he must not be worried, he will take his place, and even feel at ease, leaving the family affairs to him to handle.

Unexpectedly, Shangguan Yuan actually took advantage of the danger of others, and took advantage of his absence, to seize his position as the head of the family, and even drove him out of the family.

It's just disgusting!

No, he must go back immediately and snatch back his position as head of the family.

Although, he had thought before that as long as he could be with Mu Li, even if he abandoned the position of head of the family, there would be no pity. But now, when he really lost his position as the head of the family, he realized how humiliated and unwilling he was.

What's more, his mind has already changed now.

He now has a great desire for power and cultivation.

As long as he returns to the Shangguan family and cures his illness, the position of the head of the family will definitely fall to him.

Because, he is an innate martial artist, and with just one point, he can be invincible.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Hong finally regained his confidence, and his panicked heart calmed down.

Let Shangguan Yuan be proud for a few more days, and the position of the head of the Shangguan family will be his.

"Brother Lu, what's wrong with you?" Lin Zongyao saw that Shangguan Hong's face was cloudy and became very strange, so he asked.

"It's fine, it's just that my body is suddenly a little comfortable, and now it's better." Shangguan Hong smiled slightly, and returned to his previous state of being a beautiful son, although he is now injured by the meridians and dantian, and he can't easily do anything with others, but in the eyes of outsiders, he is still a powerful innate martial artist, except for losing a little weight, no one can see that he is seriously injured now.

Shenzhou is not like Jizhou, and you can see the figure of innate martial artists everywhere. In Shenzhou, the first innate martial artists, relatively speaking, are still relatively rare, and their status is naturally noble, and generally no one will provoke the innate martial artists.

Therefore, although those people laughed at Shangguan Hong just now, they did it in moderation, and it was because of this reason. If he was an acquired martial artist, he would have been ridiculed to death a long time ago, how could those unruly warriors explain the reason to him in a good voice?

Lin Zongyao saw that he had nothing to do, so he didn't ask much.

Although Lin Zongyao knew that Liu Muxi was the fiancΓ©e of the sect leader of Xuantian Sect, he knew nothing about Liu Muxi's past, and he only knew that Lu Dao had married someone, but he didn't know that Lu Dao, her ex-husband was Shangguan Hong.

Otherwise, even if Shangguan Hong died in front of him, he wouldn't take a second look.

Lin Zongyao is very responsible for Liu Muxi's feelings, gratitude, worship, and feelings similar to relatives, Liu Muxi's status in his heart is definitely not lower than that of his family, and it can even be said that he is still excessive, otherwise, he would not have followed Liu Muxi to run away from home and come to Shenzhou thousands of miles away, just to become a disciple of Pujiguan.

If there was no Liu Muxi, even if he was interested in medicine, he would definitely not have to be a general scholar.

In fact, not only Lin Zongyao, but the vast majority of people in the Kyushu continent except for the Southeast Shenzhou, the vast majority of people in other states are not clear about Liu Muxi's ex-husband. The focus of their concern was only that the fiancΓ©e of the sect master of the Xuantian Sect had been married, and they were not interested in knowing who she was marrying.

However, Shenzhou is different.

After so many things, everyone has a clear understanding of Liu Muxi's past. After Liu Muxi became the fiancΓ©e of the sect leader of Xuantian Sect, everyone's attitude towards the Shangguan family became very gloating.

If you knew today, why bother in the first place? Do you regret it now?

Anyone can do the beating of water dogs.

Before Shangguan Yuan took over the Shangguan family, the Shangguan family was seriously squeezed out, and no one dared to say a word for them. The Shangguan family had no choice but to completely drive Shangguan Hong, the culprit of all this, out of the family, and the situation of the Shangguan family could be regarded as improving, and the Shangguan family began to slowly recover under the leadership of Shangguan Yuan.

Compared with the future of the family, what is Shangguan Hong?

Shangguan Hong is still unclear about these, otherwise, he would definitely not be so confident.

Shangguan Hong even asked with interest: "Then Shangguan ...... The head of the family, which family do you want to marry? Could it be the Bai family of Jinming Mansion? ”

Shangguan Hong remembered that before he was in Jizhou, his parents planned to marry Shangguan Yuan, and their target had always been Bai Ruolin of the Bai family.

The Bai family has a good relationship with the Shangguan family, it is considered a world friend, and Bai Ruolin and Shangguan have known each other since childhood. The Bai family can only be regarded as a second-rate small family in Jinming Mansion, and it is not even as good as the Liu family, of course, because of Liu Muli's relationship, now the Liu family has fallen, and the status and strength of the Bai family have surpassed the Liu family.

Bai Ruolin is actually Shangguan Yuan's wife in her last life, and she married Shangguan Yuan early and has a lovely son. At the beginning, Shangguan and his wife, in order for their biological son to become the next head of the family logically, ignored the seriously ill Doudou, after all, Doudou is also the next heir of the Shangguan family.

However, in this life, I don't know why Lu Dao, Shangguan Yuan has not married a wife for a long time.

Now, both of them are in their early twenties, and it's time to get married.

However, the result of the matter was a big surprise to Shangguan Hong.

"What Bai family? What is the Bai family? How can he be worthy of the head of the Shangguan family? The well-informed Ge Tong said disdainfully.

If Shangguan Yuan is not the head of the family, it is nothing if he marries Bai Ruolin, but since Shangguan Yuan has become the head of the Shangguan family, the Bai family is a little inappropriate.

At the beginning, if it weren't for the fact that the Shangguan family didn't gain a firm foothold and needed the support of the Liu family, they wouldn't have married the Liu family. What they need today is a strong alliance.

"It's not the Bai family, who could it be?" Shangguan Hong was also a little surprised, and a trace of bad things rose in his heart.

"That's the point I'm going to make." A slightly smug smile appeared on Ge Tong's face.

When everyone saw this, they urged him to speak quickly.

Ge Tong had sold enough guanzi, and when he saw everyone's gossip and expectant eyes, he said with satisfaction: "The object of the marriage of the Shangguan family is none other than one of the three major families of the Jinming Mansion, the daughter of the Zheng family in Yuncheng. ”

"What? It turned out to be the Zheng family! Someone exclaimed.

Everyone looked at each other, they really didn't expect that the Shangguan family and the Zheng family would marry, I haven't heard of any great friendship between the two families! The three major families of Jinming Mansion have always been at odds with each other, competing for resources in private, fighting for your life and death, how could they suddenly get married?

"What's so strange about that?" Ge Tong secretly rolled his eyes and said, "Now, among the three major families of Jinming Mansion, the Su family is the dominant family, if the Shangguan family and the Zheng family are not united, how can they fight against the Su family?" Don't forget, this young master of the Su family, Su Muyan, is the true disciple of Puji Temple. It was nothing before, but now, with the promotion of Pujiguan to a first-class sect, Su Shaozhu has become an innate martial artist, and the Su family has also risen with the tide, seeing that it is the unique existence of Jinming Mansion, can the Shangguan family and the Zheng family not panic? ”

"Sounds reasonable." Everyone nodded one after another, no longer wondering about the relationship between the two families.

"By the way, Ge Tong, have you ever heard that when they got married?" Someone asked.

Ge Tong said: "The two families have already decided to marry in private, but they are just choosing an appropriate time to say it, the situation is urgent, and it shouldn't take too long." ”

When Shangguan Hong heard this, he held the hand of the cup, clenched it tightly, and the green tendons on his hand burst out, obviously angry to the extreme.

If it is, Shangguan Yuan and the Bai family marry, he can still lie to himself and say that it is just an expedient measure of the family to promote Shangguan Yuan to the position of the head of the family, and when he comes back, he will return the position of the head of the family to himself.

However, now, the marriage between Shangguan Yuan and the daughter of the Zheng family in Yuncheng, in addition to really joining forces to deal with the Su family, is also to consolidate the position of the head of the Shangguan Yuan family.

If in the future, Shangguan Yuan will return the position of head of the family to him, even if the Shangguan family agrees, the Zheng family will not agree.

The daughter of the Zheng family must only be the wife of the head of the Shangguan family.

Therefore, it is even more difficult for him to take the throne of his family.

No way! He couldn't let them marry, and he had to stop them in time before the matter was a foregone conclusion.

Thinking of this, Shangguan Hong couldn't sit still for a moment, he stood up with a swipe on the ground, his face was cold, and he no longer had the smile he had before.

Lin Zongyao was listening to it with relish, but he was startled by Shangguan Hong's sudden movements, and said, "Brother Lu, what are you going to do?" ”

Shangguan Hong stared at him tightly and said, "Brother Lin, I have something urgent, we won't rest, let's leave immediately, okay?" ”

There was a hint of supplication in his eyes.

Lin Zongyao looked at the dishes that had just come up, and he was very reluctant, and most importantly, his stomach was rumbling now.

He said with some embarrassment: "Brother Lu, are you so anxious?" Don't even have the time to eat a meal? ”

Shangguan Hong didn't have the heart to eat, his position as the head of the family was about to fly away, and he said eagerly: "I'm sorry, Brother Lin, it's really too late." Little two, check out! ”

After speaking, he pulled Lin Zongyao and was about to leave.

Lin Zongyao was a little unhappy in his heart, he shook off Shangguan Hong and pulled his arm, and said to Xiao Er, who rushed over: "Pack all the wine and food, let's take it away, and prepare a few big steamed buns, and some water." ”

As he spoke, he handed Xiao Er a silver ingot and a big kettle.

The little second-hand feet were neat, and it was done quickly, and I found the money again.

Lin Zongyao and Shangguan Hong left the restaurant and got into the carriage.

The groom was leaning on the car and napping, but he didn't expect the employer to come back so soon, so he quickly cheered up and didn't ask more, and after the two sat down, they drove away.

Shangguan Hong thought that the speed was too slow, and kept urging the coachman to hurry up.

Lin Zongyao just watched coldly, and had no intention of obstructing him.

He doesn't have much friendship with Shangguan Hong, and saving him is just a casual thing, even taking care of him is for the sake of saving people to the end, in fact, he is not compatible with Shangguan Hong's personality, just familiar, but not friends.

The main thing is that Shangguan Hong has some bad problems with the children of those families, and he really can't get used to it.

For example, even if you don't have a penny in your pocket, you should eat and live in the best way, for example, complaining about bad food, uncomfortable clothes, etc.

When he first saved him, he didn't do this, no matter what he did, he was very grateful to him, but after they arrived in Shenzhou, his attitude began to slowly change, and he became more and more like a true disciple of the family.

Because he was more frugal, Shangguan Hong thought that he didn't have much money, and planned to use money to win him over, but he didn't know that he was not rare at all.

100,000 taels a year, I want him to work hard for him, dream!

You must know that the treasures left by Liu Muxi to her are far more than this, in addition to the storage ring is a priceless treasure, he also has five million taels of silver!

Even the price of the pseudo-spirit horse exceeds this number.

He is also a person who has seen the world, and his eyelids are not so shallow.

Lin Zongyao has never exposed his storage ring, this storage ring is too valuable, it is difficult to guarantee that no one will have bad intentions, and he has no backing, so he can only hide it carefully. However, when he joined the Puji Temple, there would be no need to be so troublesome.

The most important thing is that Lin Zongyao also doesn't like the attitude of Shangguan Hong when he recruits himself, as if he recruits himself is to repay him for saving his life.

But I don't know that he is not rare at all.

He had already decided, when he sent Shangguan Hong home, he would leave immediately and go to Bituo Mountain to apprentice, he would not waste time with him.

Shangguan Hong was preoccupied and didn't notice that Lin Zongyao's attitude towards him was very cold. Even, he was thinking about how to better use Lin Zongyao's identity as an innate martial artist to regain the position of the head of the family that originally belonged to him.

If he could win over an innate martial artist, even those elders would look at him differently.

After all, innate martial artists are very rarely able to win over, and most of them don't look down on ordinary families, so they are basically acquired martial artists.

He didn't think that Lin Zongyao would refuse him, Lin Zongyao is soft-hearted and kind, as long as he moves with affection and reason, and the two share hardships and hardships, and get along for so long, he will definitely stay to help him.

If Lin Zongyao heard his thoughts, he would definitely scoff.

Shared suffering? Who is he talking about? Obviously he just saved him, he just wanted to enjoy his own care for him, how could he have done anything to himself? Where is it to say that we are suffering together?

Shangguan Hong's heart was like an arrow, and he didn't care about food and clothing, it was originally a ten-day journey, but he arrived at Huicheng in Jinming Mansion in five days.

The pseudo-spirit horse was foaming at the mouth and rolling his eyes when he was tired, and even Lin Zongyao felt that his bones were about to fall apart.

Fortunately, it is a pseudo-spirit horse that pulls the cart, if it is an ordinary horse, even if it is half a month, it may not be able to arrive.

After entering Huicheng, Shangguan Hong didn't panic, in order not to look so down, he also found an inn and stayed first, after all, it was already dark. After resting, on the second day, freshen up and tidy up, and appear in front of the family with the best appearance, instead of a depressed appearance.

For this reason, he also asked Lin Zongyao to pay for him to buy him a set of relatively high-end clothes, which cost about two thousand taels. Of course, all this money has to be repaid.

Shangguan Hong's concerns were correct, and when he returned to Shangguan Mansion the next day, everyone was shocked.

The guards guarding the door have been replaced by Shangguan Yun's henchmen, but when Shangguan Hong revealed his identity, the guards did not dare to be disrespectful to him, and even hurriedly went to inform the masters.

Because Shangguan Hong is a congenital martial artist, and he obviously returned to his hometown in fine clothes, without a trace of despair.

Although there are no neatly dressed and large number of guards, Shangguan Hong's guard is a congenital martial artist, a congenital martial artist, which is much more effective than a hundred acquired martial artists.

Since coming to Huicheng in Jinming Mansion, Lin Zongyao has already known Shangguan Hong's true identity, and he also understands why he rushed back in a hurry.

However, it has nothing to do with him, he must leave anyway.

Shangguan Hong really had no way to let him stay, so he had to retreat and let him do him the last favor, which was to let him be his own guard for the time being to save face.

Lin Zongyao hesitated for a moment, then agreed.

So, there was a guard of Shangguan's house, and he saw a scene.

When Shangguan Hong saw the guard guard, he hurriedly went to report the good news, sneered, calmed down, and there was still a tough battle to be fought later.

Not long after, Shangguan Hong heard the voice of his mother Lu Hongdie-

"Hong'er, is that you? Are you really back? Before the words fell, the person had already appeared in front of Shangguan Hong, and because she was so excited, she even called out Shangguan Hong's nickname.

I haven't seen my relatives for a long time, and I have suffered so many grievances outside, Shangguan Hong's eyes are also a little sour, he immediately knelt down and said movingly: "Mother, please forgive the child for being unfilial, I only came back now, the child can't stand you......"

Lu Hongdie burst into tears, although she blamed her eldest son, but what she valued most was him, although she drove him out of the family, but how could she not feel uncomfortable?

"It's cold on the ground, get up!" Lu Hongdie hurriedly said.

At this time, Shangguan Yuan had already come out, with a faint smile on his face, and stepped forward and said, "Big brother, let's hurry up!" Otherwise, the mother will be sad again. ”

Shangguan Hong stood up and looked at Shangguan Hong.

Compared with before, Shangguan Yuan has changed a lot and become more profound, although he has a smile on his face, he has a little more majesty.

Shangguan Hong didn't care too much, and when he became the head of the family, he was naturally different from before.

However, the next moment, Shangguan Hong's eyes widened in disbelief and said, "Second brother, you...... You actually broke through to the innate? This...... When did this happen? ”

Shangguan Yu smiled silently.

When Lu Hongdie heard this, she wiped her tears, showed a hint of pride on her face, and said with relief: "In the past few months since you left, after you left, fortunately, your second brother took over and broke through the innate in time, otherwise, our Shangguan family still doesn't know what has become of Lu Dao?" ”

Shangguan Yun said modestly: "Mother is too awarded, it is all the teaching of my father and the elders, otherwise, I would not have been able to break through so quickly, let alone support this family." It's good that the eldest brother is back, and after taking over the family, I will be idle, and I don't have to be so tired every day. ”

When Lu Hongdie heard this, her face stiffened slightly, and her joy when she saw her eldest son finally weakened, and she said, "Let's stop clubbing at the door, so as not to be seen gossiping." Let's go in and talk. ”

Shangguan Hong's heart was a little heavy, and after entering the gate, when he saw the familiar scenery, there was a smile on his face, this was the home he had missed for a long time. God knows how much he misses this place during the days of suffering outside.

However, when he went further inside, he found that the scenery and even the layout had changed, and he became no longer familiar, and only the shadow of the past could be faintly seen. The home in his memory became unrecognizable, and a strong anger suddenly surged in his heart, and he asked, "Second brother, what's going on?" Why has the scenery changed here? ”

Shangguan Yun smiled and said: "Big brother, forgive me, this place has been destroyed, there is no way, I have to rest again, fortunately, I can't see any dilapidation now." ”

"Vandalized?" Shangguan Hong thought that he was perfunctory, and said coldly: "Who is so bold and dares to go to our Shangguan family to spread wild?" Second brother, are you kidding? ”

Shangguan said: "Since the eldest brother doesn't believe it, then forget it." Anyway, it's all in the past, what do you care about it? ”

Lu Hongdie remembered the humiliation suffered by the Shangguan family at the beginning, and the joy that originally arose because of seeing her eldest son suddenly cooled down, on the contrary, she also had a trace of resentment in her heart, if it wasn't for the things Shangguan Hong did, why would the Shangguan family be so insulted? Therefore, his face was slightly cold and said, "Don't ask more, your second brother is doing a good job." ”

Shangguan Hong's heart suddenly sank, and he felt more and more that the situation was unfavorable to him.

"Alright, big brother, please come in!" Shangguan Xuan interrupted Shangguan Hong's contemplation.

Shangguan Hong came back to his senses, looked around, his face turned white, he was so angry that his whole body began to tremble, and he looked at Shangguan Yun angrily.

"Why does my eldest brother look at me like this? Did the little brother do something wrong? Shangguan asked innocently.

"You...... Are you pretending to be confused, or are you really confused, this is the living room? Shangguan Hong said angrily.

This is the place to receive foreign guests, and their families meet and are definitely not here.

Isn't he treating himself as a guest by doing so?

How can this be true?

The expression on Shangguan Yuan's face became even more innocent, and he looked at him and said, "I know that this is the living room, is there anything wrong with this?" ”

Shangguan Hong didn't want to see him so shameless at all, this Shangguan Mansion was his home, why should he receive him in the living room?

So, he suppressed his anger, looked at Lu Hongdie and said, "Mother, look at the second brother, I really don't know the rules, I am his eldest brother, he actually received me in such a place, isn't Shangguan Mansion my home?" ”

Lu Hongdie's face showed a trace of embarrassment, she didn't know how to tell her eldest son that he had been kicked out of the family and was no longer from the Shangguan family.

Shangguan Yu didn't have this kind of concern, and when he saw that his mother didn't speak, he couldn't help but smile slightly: "Big brother, you are no longer the master of Shangguan Mansion, you are just a guest, of course I will receive you in the living room." ”

"What do you mean?" Shangguan Hong wondered if his ears were broken, and he had heard such an incredible thing.

Even if he was actually out there, you heard about it, but never took it seriously. He is the head of the Shangguan family, how could he be kicked out of the family?

Shangguan Yun pinched his brows, as if he was a little helpless, and said, "Big brother, you have been outside for so long, haven't you heard that you have been kicked out of the Shangguan family?" Now there is no name on the family tree. ”

"What?" Shangguan Hong was completely stunned.

It turned out that the news turned out to be true.

He knew that his situation was serious, but he didn't expect that it would be so serious.

They are so ruthless, the genealogy is deleted.

At this point, why did he regain his position as the head of the family?

No, this must be Shangguan Yuan's conspiracy, and he must not let him admit defeat.

"Mother, do you really not want my son? What the hell have I done wrong to do this to me? Shangguan Hong's eyes were red and he questioned Lu Hongdie.

Lu Hongdie was also very uncomfortable in her heart, and shook her head with a wry smile and said, "Hong'er, the matter is a foregone conclusion, and there is no way to change it." Don't worry, you are still my son, and the Shangguan Mansion will not dare you go. ”

"Yes, eldest brother, although you have been expelled from the clan, but after all, you are also the son of your mother, my eldest brother, we will not ignore you. However, your previous courtyard is no longer inhabitable, and I can only arrange a guest house for you. By the way, how about the yard you built for Liu Muli before? I remember you used to like it so much, why don't you just live there? Shangguan Xuan said in a very relatable manner.

Hearing Liu Muli's three words, Lin Zongyao, who had been ignored, flashed a trace of fluctuation in his eyes.

She also knows the name Lu Dao, because for a while, her popularity was on par with Liu Muxi, and it is said that they are still sisters.

This Shangguan Hong has a lot to do with Liu Muli, could it be that he also knew Senior Sister Liu before?

Lin Zongyao finally got a little interested.

When Shangguan Hong heard this, he laughed miserably, looked at Shangguan Yun coldly and said, "Second brother, you are really good, I really underestimated you before." ”
