Chapter 130: Secret Calculation

Qianshan City is a city of about the same level as Heavenly Spirit City, so there is also a branch of the Beast Hall in the city, which can be reached directly by flying demon beasts.

The group arrived at Qianshan City, returned the flying demon beast to the Beast Hall Branch, and then went through various procedures such as entering the city,,,

When all kinds of trivial matters were dealt with and the sky had basically dimmed completely, the four of them first found an inn in the city to rest for one night, and then went to do the formal handover procedures with the Chen family the next day.

In the southern urban area of Qianshan City, a huge courtyard of mansions, with two gilded characters of 'Chen Mansion' written on the plaque at the main entrance, this is where the Chen family, which can be ranked among the top ten in Qianshan City, is located.

The current head of the Chen family, that is, Chen Lifan's uncle, is a gray-bearded but shrewd and capable old man.

"Father, the people of the Zhu family have arrived. A sleek middle-aged man walked from outside the house and said to the old head of the Chen family.

His name is Chen Fengrun, the eldest son of the current head of the family, and Chen Lifan's cousin.

The old head of the Chen family said, "What have they done since they came to Thousand Mountains City, and how did they look?"

"In addition to going through the corresponding procedures for entering the city, I didn't do anything else, and directly found an inn to live in. Chen Fengrun replied, "As for the expression, except for some tiredness from hurrying, everything else is normal. ”

The old head of the Chen family narrowed his old eyes slightly, and smiled faintly, "The future is terrifying, the Zhu family really has an amazing daughter." I thought that after they got the information, they would come to Chen Jiaxing in a hurry as soon as they arrived in Qianshan City to ask for the guilt. ”

"Unfortunately, they didn't. He shook his head slightly.

He originally thought that with the Zhu family's momentum now and the majesty of hugging the thighs of a Five Realms Grandmaster, how could he be willing to suffer this big loss. In addition, they are all young people, young and vigorous, and if someone dares to stumble on them in secret, they will definitely kill them as soon as possible and make a big fuss.

Then the Chen family will add fuel to the fire behind the scenes, and make a big publicity, and when the time comes, the entire Thousand Mountain City will see the strong and domineering power of the Zhu family, who has crossed the river, and acts unscrupulously. Without the Chen family's move, there will be many forces that are not used to seeing the Zhu family's actions to make a move, see how the Zhu family can still gain a foothold in Qianshan City at that time?

This can be described as a soft nail with extremely bad damage, but it is a pity that it did not succeed, Zhu Qingyan and his party did not directly kill the Chen family after coming to Qianshan City as the scheming old head of the Chen family expected.

"Wouldn't there be something wrong with us doing that, if we offend that Great Grandmaster of the Five Realms, the consequences are not something the Chen family can bear?" Chen Fengrun said with a worried face.

The old head of the Chen family waved his hand nonchalantly, looking indifferent, "We are doing things within the legal rules, even if the big man knows, he can't find any fault." And the more noble the status, the more they pay attention to their own reputation and face, they will not do that kind of thing that damages their reputation and image. ”

"Besides, big people are big people after all, and they have a lot of busy things to deal with. How can there be so much leisure time to manage the trivial things between a few local families. ”

After listening to his father's analysis, Chen Fengrun was relieved.

"By the way, what has happened to Chen Lifan's vein recently?" The old head of the Chen family seemed to think of something, and suddenly asked.

"There is no big movement, since the defeat of the plot to seize the Zhu family, they have been very peaceful, and they have not dared to come out again. Chen Fengrun replied with a sneer.

The Chen family has two brothers in the generation of Chen Dushui, the head of the old family, and one room is naturally Chen Dushui, who later succeeded to the position of the head of the Chen family. The other room is Chen Lifan's father, that is, Zhu Chuncao's father-in-law Chen Dushan.

Chen Dushan has always been dissatisfied with his brother Chen Dushui's succession as the head of the family, and he has been fighting with him openly and secretly.

Over the years, it has also caused the current situation that the Chen family's forces are divided into two factions. One faction is headed by the current head of the family, Chen Dushui, and has been formed into the head of the family. The other faction is naturally headed by Chen Dushan, the reformist.

Originally, the strength of the reformists has always been inferior to that of the head of the family, and they have been suppressed by the head of the family for many years. It wasn't until Zhu Chuncao married Chen Lifan that the Zhu family gradually rose and grew, and the strength and prestige of the reformists also rose, and they faintly had the strength to compete with the head of the family.

Then, not long ago, the reformist faction suddenly hugged the thigh of the Liuyun Sect, a first-class great sect in the Apocalypse Kingdom, and its strength instantly surpassed that of the family master faction, and became the one who really controlled the Chen family's right to speak. Just waiting to complete the tasks ordered by the Liuyun Sect, Chen Dushui can take his place and become the new head of the Chen family.

It's a pity that people are not as good as heaven, I thought it was a safe thing, but I never expected that the Zhu family's trip would change so unexpectedly, and it ended in a fiasco.

The reformists not only lost their position as the head of the family and their control over the Chen family, but also lost the protection of the Liuyun Sect.

The reformists, who were originally in a good situation and arrogant, can now be said to have returned to the pre-liberation period and have been beaten back to their prototypes, or even worse.

Because they not only did not win any benefits for the Chen family, but also lost thirty percent of the Chen family's power, and even completely offended the Zhu family.

The reputation and status of the reformists in the Chen family plummeted in an instant, and since then, they have also consciously survived and have not come out again.

It stands to reason that Chen Dushan and other people from the head of the family should be grateful to the Zhu family, if it weren't for the Zhu family withstanding the attack of the Liuyun Sect and finally completely foiling their plot, the Chen family would have fallen into the hands of the reformists led by Chen Dushui.

However, Chen Dushan, the old head of the Chen family, was not polite to the Zhu family at all, not only did he not have the slightest gratitude, but he also calculated everywhere. first played tricks and scheming on the Sancheng forces that promised to the Zhu family, and then set up a trick for the Zhu family,,,

There is no way, in the face of the huge interests of the family, it is a luxury to talk about moral feelings.

"Since they know how to measure and how to behave, don't touch them for now. The family is also in an eventful season now, and everything is stable, waiting for this special period to come. The Chen family's hometown Zhu's eyes flashed, and he said slowly, "But you can't completely relax your surveillance, especially in the next period of time, they may feel that the opportunity to make a comeback has come again, and maybe they will take action again." ”

"Yes, father, rest assured, the child knows what to do. Chen Fengrun replied respectfully.

The old head of the Chen family nodded slightly, and then asked about another matter: "By the way, how are the preparations for tomorrow's affairs?"
