Although the fighting beast won, Wu Di was not too happy.

He has been completely swept up in this big family.

"She's so good?" It is hard for Wu Di to imagine that such a girl can rank second in the inheritance ranking, and it is even very likely that she can control a family, which is really unseemly.

"Humph!" Josephine snorted coldly, and seemed to have a good opinion of Avril: "She's not powerful, she's insidious and cunning, don't look at her innocent, there are many intrigues and tricks in her heart!" ”

"Oh? What's going on? Although Wu Di did not grow up among the wealthy nobles, the court dramas in the TV series should be similar to those in the Habsburg family, competing for fame and fortune, intrigue, and deceit.

But I'm still curious that Avril can stay in this position.

"Howard is very powerful, he is now ranked first, but he still suffered a big loss in the hands of Avril in the first two years, which not only made him suffer a lot of vitality, but also directly made Avril rise from a nobody, directly rising nearly twenty places."

Louis shrugged his shoulders and continued, "Everyone was deceived by her illusion at the beginning, what a remorse! ”

It seemed that they didn't want to talk about the ugly things in the clan, so Wu Di didn't ask any more, but the three of them had now walked out of the castle and walked directly to a small lake.

The sparkling surface of the lake is slightly undulating, and the water is so clear that you can even see small fish swimming in it.

"Wu Di, how is the body of the patriarch's grandfather?" When Josephine saw the eyes cast by her brother, she naturally understood that he was giving herself a hint, so she asked directly.

"The patriarch's physical condition is very bad, and I don't have a sure way to say it now, and I may need further examinations!" Wu Di sat on the bench, not perfunctory, in fact, the key to his own determination is only his own speculation so far.

"Huh? Is there a way you can cure it? Josephine's face was not very good after hearing this, and she turned her head to look at her brother first, and could only continue to ask.

Don't look at Josephine is not yet eighteen years old, but growing up in this kind of prestigious family, he naturally understands the importance of it, and he also knows that if Wu Di cures the strange disease of the patriarch, it will make his brother directly advance by leaps and bounds in the inheritance ranking.

This is a fact that both glory and loss are lost.

Don't look at the ancestral teachings of the Habsburgs, each patriarch is equivalent to breaking away from the original clan and becoming one, and even the original name has been canceled.

But if his relatives become the patriarch, no matter what, he will also take care of it, such as the current Patriarch Hill, his brother is Frank, that is, the old man on crutches, the reason why Frank can replace Hill in charge of the overall situation now comes from this.

So when he heard Wu Di's words, he was suddenly stunned, after all, whether it was his father or his brother, they had invited Wu Di with hope before.

The futility of Wu's enemies means that their bubble of hope has burst.

"To be honest, I'm really not sure right now!"

Louis originally pulled his sister over to ask about it, but when he heard Wu Di say this, he suddenly felt excited, bent down and picked up a small stone, and threw it into the lake.

"Forget it, there are times in life that you have to have, and there are times in life when you don't force it!" Louis expressed his feelings, and he was helpless about this situation.

And in fact, before, his ranking could only be regarded as above average, and it was very stable, this kind of performance was only qualified for the entire family, but because of this, he didn't have too much care about the position of patriarch before.

However, his father Antonio has always regretted that he failed to become the patriarch in the first place, and it was added to Luis, otherwise it would have been a comfortable thing to be a rich kid and take charge of a part of the business.

Why fight for the position of patriarch!

Compared with the relaxed chatting of the three people by the lake, the atmosphere in the conference room of the underground castle was very solemn, and everyone was silent.

Hill didn't know how long it had been since he had seen the sun, so the meeting of the elders was all moved underground, but fortunately, when the castle was originally designed, his ancestors may have thought about this problem a long time ago, so there are still meeting rooms set up underground.

Hill sat on the patriarch's seat, looked at the dozens of family elders in front of him, and finally his eyes fell on his brother, that is, old Frank.

"Ahem, except for Raven and Robbie Lane who are abroad, all the elders in the family have arrived!" Frank nodded at Ciel.

Hill's face was pale, although he had just slept and recovered a lot of strength, but now his face was withered, his eyes were dull, and he was about to speak, when he suddenly coughed violently.

All the elders were looking at him nervously, their faces were different, and their thoughts were also different.

Doctor Vesta, the only one who was not an elder but was here, saw this, hurried over and wanted to ask, but as soon as he was halfway there, he saw Hill wave his hand to him, and he could only return to his place.

"I'm afraid my physical condition won't last long!" Hill's first sentence was uttered, and everyone was even more concentrated, and it seemed that this was the rhythm of explaining the aftermath.

"The doctor invited by Louis today is very unusual, I decided to let go of the treatment, life and death depend on this time!" Hill's speed of speech is very slow, even squeezing out word by word, but every word he says adds a little more pressure to everyone.

"If I don't survive this time, Frank will be in charge of the affairs of the clan for the time being, and wait until the end of the year, when the House of Elders will evaluate the juniors and then determine the candidate for the next patriarch!"

"On the other hand, if I really die because of this treatment, no one in the family can hold Dr. Wu Di responsible, and I will write this in my will!"

Hill knew what Wu Di was afraid of now, so he had to reassure him that he had no worries, and only in this way might Wu Di agree to treat him.

After all, the so-called treatment is too risky, and the consequences are too serious.

"What do you guys think?" Hill intermittently explained all the things that needed to be explained, seemed a little tired, and let out a long breath before asking.

There was silence in the conference room, everyone was muttering, but no one spoke, the time passed minute by minute, like a blink of an eye, more than ten minutes had passed, and still no one spoke.

"In that case, then it's decided!"

Seeing that Hill was helped into a wheelchair by Dr. Vista and then left the conference room, all the elders who looked at each other suddenly began to talk in a whisper.

Frank sighed in his heart, the last thing he wanted to happen to Hill was naturally his brother, but this was not a problem that he could solve, the world was impermanent, he looked at these elders who were talking to each other, and walked out.

Victor now feels refreshed, sitting in his seat, there are constantly elders coming to greet him, his son Howard is now in the first place in the successor ranking, maybe he will become a real patriarch at the beginning of next year, and his own father, the market will naturally rise sharply.

As for Hill being cured by the doctor named Wu Di, hehe, money can make ghosts grind, as long as the reward he pays is enough, even if Wu Di really has Tongtian medical skills, he will definitely cure Hill to death.

So now it's the key to buy off Wu Di!
