Chapter 56: Family Affairs
Qingyuan Pavilion
Dishes are served on the table like a stream, and the delicacies exude an enticing aroma.
Ye Mingyuan and Ye Cheng were talking at the table, and it was not yet time to start the table.
"Dad, leave the affairs of the clan to Ye Hong, I still concentrate on martial arts, and I'm not interested in these trivial things."
Ye Cheng took a sip of Longjing, and the warm tea water had a strong tea fragrance.
He has wanted to put forward this idea for a long time, this world implements the primogeniture inheritance system, as the eldest son of the Ye family, as long as he doesn't mention it, no one dares to replace him, and after Ye Li's matter, Ye Cheng's momentum in the Ye family has reached its peak, even if some people are careful, they can only honestly put it away.
As for Ye Li, after that night, he was assigned to a small city near the Ice Ocean as a steward, saying that he was an expatriate was actually exile, and a small town that developed only by fishing could have any oil and water
"Well, you can tell Hong'er about this matter yourself, speaking of Hong'er, this time is really ......" Ye Mingyuan shook his head, and was about to say something, but Ye Hong walked in.
Ye Hong and Ye Cheng are seven points alike, but Ye Cheng is successful in martial arts, tall and straight, and there is more decisive domineering between his eyebrows, while Ye Hong is handsome and slightly thin, but more like a noble son, of course, he was originally the second son of the Ye family.
After a few months of not seeing, Ye Hong's figure seems to be more bearable, his eyes are extremely dark circles, and the whole person looks lazy and lazy, and has no energy.
Ye Mingyuan frowned and snorted lightly
"It's said it's a reunion dinner, why did you bring this woman over and don't let her retreat"
Ye Cheng found that Ye Hong was followed by a maid in a green skirt, with clear eyebrows and beautiful eyes, looking like a small jasper, but there was nothing particularly brilliant about the others.
Ye Mingyuan was furious in his heart, this little son has always been extremely sensible, but in recent months, I don't know what's wrong, he has become infatuated with this woman, and the two of them are glued together wherever they go.
As the second son of the Ye family, Ye Hong is naturally not a big deal to have one or two concubines, but he actually brought this woman to the Ye family meeting, and seeing Ye Hong being fascinated by a woman like this, this made Ye Mingyuan a little disappointed.
Fortunately, Ye Hong has a good talent in management, and the industry in the clan is also well organized, so Ye Mingyuan didn't say anything.
But today he had already made it clear that it was a reunion dinner for the father and son, and Ye Hong actually brought this woman here, which immediately made him angry.
"Lian'er, you better go down first"
A trace of embarrassment flashed on Ye Hong's face, and he secretly looked at the woman in green, his expression a little flustered.
"Yes, Lian'er is waiting for Childe outside the hall"
The maid named Lian'er seemed to be a little panicked, first glanced at Ye Mingyuan, and then her eyes fell on Ye Cheng, and she was stunned for a long time, before bowing and withdrawing.
It's just that no one noticed that the maid's lowered eyes flashed red.
Seeing the woman in green retreating, Ye Hong exhaled lightly as if she was sighing
Hearing this voice, Ye Mingyuan was angry again
"What the hell is going on with you, being fascinated by a woman like this, really, really ......"
Since the woman came in, Ye Cheng has been observing from the sidelines, and when the maid bowed and saluted, the red light flashed in Ye Cheng's sleeves, Ye Cheng was stunned for a moment, and then his expression suddenly turned cold, and then he immediately adjusted, as if nothing had happened.
It was only then that Ye Cheng spoke
"Dad, don't be angry, if Brother Hong really likes that woman, just take her as a concubine, our family has been cold and lonely all these years, just the three of us, maybe Brother Hong can let you hold your grandson as soon as possible and continue the incense for our Ye family."
Ye Mingyuan heard that this was to dissipate some anger, and looked at Ye Hong, who was a little shrunken, angrily.
When people are old, they always hope that their own expenses will be scattered, and their children and grandchildren will be full, although Ye Mingyuan is the patriarch, he is not exempt from vulgarity.
When Ye Hong heard the words of accepting him as a concubine, his expression was tense at first, but seeing that Ye Mingyuan's anger seemed to subside, he still glanced at Ye Cheng opposite gratefully.
"Okay, your eldest brother is back today, don't talk about these troubles, let's eat"
Ye Mingyuan snorted lightly, and the three of them also moved their chopsticks one after another.
After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere of the father and son gradually improved
"Ye Hong, your eldest brother has something to tell you, look at what you think" Ye Mingyuan looked at Ye Cheng and nodded
"What's the matter" Ye Hong saw Ye Mingyuan's solemn expression, and also looked at Ye Cheng
"Well, I'm dedicated to martial arts, and I'm not interested in these things in the clan, so I mentioned it to my father, and I'm going to let my father pass on the position of the head of the family to you......"
Ye Hong's face changed, and he hurriedly said, "Is it someone chewing his tongue in your ear, I have never thought of robbing you for the position of the head of this family......"
"No one chews their tongues, this is my own meaning, and my father's clan agrees, don't think about it......"
He naturally knew what Ye Hong was worried about, the second room and the long room competed for the family business and finally beat the dog's brain and tore the family apart, so that the bloody things don't happen too much in this world.
At the same time, this is also the most taboo aspect of the big family, if you are not careful, it is a major event of family turmoil.
"This ......" Ye Hong's face was a little excited, and he was also a little hesitant, he didn't know how to answer, it was really too sudden, so he was not prepared at all.
If he doesn't have any thoughts about the Ye family's huge industry, it must be fake, but he and Ye Cheng have had an excellent relationship since childhood, and this world is also extremely taboo about the matter of winning the second room, which made him let go of his thoughts.
He was actually ready to assist Ye Cheng for the rest of his life, but now, the entire Ye family was suddenly about to be handed over to him, which made him a little unable to react.
Seeing Ye Hong's expression, Ye Mingyuan and Ye Cheng also had a bottom in their hearts, Ye Mingyuan needless to say, as the head of the Ye family, his eye for observing people and recognizing things is naturally very high, and Ye Cheng has been in his previous life for many years, and he has never seen all kinds of people, Ye Hong's mind naturally can't hide from him.
"Okay, this matter is just for you to be prepared first, your father and I can last a few years, and this burden will not be all on you for a while."
Ye Hong's face turned red, obviously a little excited, but he didn't know what to think, and there was a faint worry in his expression.
By the time he finished eating, it was already nightfall, and large and small lanterns had been hung in the house, Ye Cheng looked at Ye Hong's distant figure, the light flashed in his eyes, and his figure disappeared in place.
In a remote garden, Ye Hongping retired from the guards, the moonlight was like water, and only the woman in green was left beside him.
"I said that today is just an ordinary family dinner, what do you want to do?"
Ye Hong lowered his voice, but there was obviously extreme anger in his tone
"Hehe, I don't want to do anything, it's just that I'm a weak woman who wants to see the majesty of the Ye family," the woman in green said with a smile
"I have done everything you have commanded, I warn you, don't hit my father's attention"
"Of course you can't move your father, but there is only one mortal left and right, but I want that Ye Cheng" The green-clothed woman's eyes flashed with blood, and a greedy look flashed on her face.
"I didn't expect that your Ye family still has such a master, at a young age, he actually cultivated his external skills to such a realm, and his flesh and blood are enough to cover hundreds of ordinary mortals, I haven't tasted the taste of genius yet."
The woman in green stretched out her scarlet tongue and licked her lips, and in the moonlight, the tongue stretched longer and longer, and the tip of the tongue split into two forks like a snake.
Ye Hong's heart was cold, and his feet were a little trembling, but he still said in a trembling voice
"Don't think about it, Ye Cheng is my eldest brother, and he is the pillar of my Ye family's future, it's a big deal that our jade is burning, I can't control you, but there are so many masters in Beining City who can control you."
"Hahahaha"
The woman in green laughed wildly when she heard this, and then her eyes suddenly turned cold, and under Ye Hong's frightened gaze, a burst of black mist suddenly rose behind the woman in green, and a huge snake head loomed in the black mist, and a pair of red snake eyes scattered a cold light.
"Beining City, the entire four major families have long been in our hands, what do you mortals know, in a few days, you will all die"
The woman seemed to be a little crazy, and laughed wildly again, and the black gas behind her surged, and the huge snake head hissed in the sky.
"Oh, you're interested in my flesh"
A faint voice interrupted the woman's laughter, and a figure appeared out of thin air, suddenly appearing in front of the woman in green.
The figure's arm suddenly swelled in a circle, and the huge fan-like palm directly grabbed the woman's neck, lifting her up
"Looking for Death"
Anger flashed in the eyes of the woman in green, and the huge snake eyes in the black mist stared at Ye Cheng fiercely, flashing with murderous malice.
The blood-red meridians appeared on the woman in green, and she struggled so hard that she was about to break free of Ye Cheng's palm.
Feeling the huge force on the palm of his hand, Ye Cheng's complexion also changed slightly
A fierce light flashed in his eyes, and his palm, which was originally thigh-thick, swelled again, his red muscles bulged, and his huge palm squeezed hard
syllable
The maid's neck was crushed in two, her head flew up, and her originally beautiful face was now covered with a distorted look, and blue-black blood sprayed out like money.
yes
A black gas surged in the air, and there were bursts of screams, and Ye Hong was pale and soft to the side.
Looking at Ye Cheng with a fierce look on his face in front of him, his head was a little unable to turn, and the female ghost who was as invulnerable as the devil died like this?
At this time, Ye Cheng's red bronze body was running at full strength, his body had swelled to three meters, and the muscles of his body flashed the color of red copper, he looked at Ye Cheng who was like a god and demon in front of him, and his heart flashed with awe, the Ye Cheng who grew up with him was already powerful beyond his imagination.
The black fog was surging in the air, and even the moonlight seemed to be absorbed by the black fog, and the courtyard was pitch black.
The black mist gradually condensed, and a monster the size of several zhang with a snake head and a human body appeared in the black mist, its scarlet tongue poked out, and the vertical pupils of Yousen stared closely below.
"Since my body has been damaged, then use your body as compensation, a genius martial artist of the Condensation Realm, I haven't encountered such a delicious prey for a long time" A low and hoarse voice came from all directions, and the strange hissing sound made people feel depressed and wanted to vomit blood.
"Die, mortal"
The voice of the monster with the head of the snake head was cold, his body flashed, and he disappeared directly in place, and a dark and cold ghost light was like a blade, instantly slashing towards Ye Cheng's chest
"Be careful" Ye Hong's face changed wildly, and he exclaimed, the first time he encountered that ghost thing was in this form, the master he spent a lot of money to invite, and he didn't even hold up a move, so he disemboweled.
But the next moment, his voice stopped abruptly
In mid-air, Ye Cheng jumped high, and one palm directly pierced the huge snake head, and the red flames kept jumping on Ye Cheng's arm, emitting a demonic light in the darkness.
"You...... It's not a refining ......"
The monster's eyes were full of disbelief, and its pupils shrank into a slit.
"I forgot to tell you, I just broke through to the Transfiguration Realm not long ago" Ye Cheng said softly, and then his voice was cold
"Let's Die"
The raging flames instantly enveloped the body of the basilisk, the black and red light was entangled, and a sharp snake hissed throughout the courtyard, and with an unwilling roar, the basilisk directly turned into a ball of fire and disappeared.
In the darkness, Ye Cheng was full of raging flames, like a king in fire.
Under the jumping firelight, Ye Hong's face was uncertain, and Ye Cheng's body cast a huge shadow, like a distorted demonic shadow, directly enveloping him.
