The Qin family was naturally unprepared for Zhou Yu's sudden appearance, but at least Qin Yuesheng was in charge, and Qin Luo slowly closed it afterward, for Zhou Yu's appearance this time, the Qin family's handling of it was also perfect, and Qin Yuesheng was also very satisfied, after all, it could be regarded as a preliminary exchange with Zhou Yu, which was naturally of great help to Qin Yuesheng and what they wanted to do.

But compared to the Qin family, the Kong family is really in a hurry now, of course, this panic does not appear at the bottom of the family, but at the top of the family. After all, although what happened in the auction hall tonight was amazing, it would take some time for the news to spread after all, not to mention that as a witness to this incident, Kong An didn't dare to say anything after returning to Kong's house. He has followed Kong Boyuan for many years, so he can naturally put himself in Kong Boyuan's shoes, and he is in an embarrassing situation in this matter, so Kong An chose to shut up, and the channels for those juniors of the Kong family and some people at the bottom to get news were naturally closed.

But it was impossible for Kong Boyuan to be silent after he came back, even if he wanted to cover up his "mistakes" in treating Zhou Yu in the past , But there is one thing that can't be covered up at all, that is, their Kong family has obtained a good thing about the defense of Xicheng, this is not something that can be covered, this does not need to be covered up at all, but if it is an ordinary period, this matter should be hyped up in the Kong family, but now among the high-level of the Kong family, there seems to be some unusual atmosphere brewing, and the Confucian family's meeting hall is now a few big men who boasted of being able to strategize in the past, and they all frowned, not knowing what they were thinking.

Kong Boyuan is not the largest branch of the Kong family, but he has always been impacting this family status, and his eldest brother is always standing in front of him, and Kong Bosheng, who is older than him in the family and is indeed stronger than him. In the past, Kong Boyuan had never been able to surpass his eldest brother's status in the family, not only because the other party was older, but also because some of the things Kong Boyuan himself did seemed to be very good, but in fact it was always a little bit worse. To put it bluntly, he did a good job, but after all, it was still not enough to get the family to agree to hand over the position of patriarch to him.

But today, the achievement that Kong Boyuan brought back seems to be enough to threaten Kong Bosheng's status in the family. In fact, the reason why all the bigwigs are frowning in the Confucian family's meeting hall is not entirely because they don't know how to deal with Zhou Yu, after all, this matter is just heard of for more people, and they don't know the specific situation, and even their ears and eyes don't have the slightest rumor about this matter, so these people now only think that Kong Boyuan is to consolidate or even improve his status in the family, so they are cheeky and put their son-in-law who is an instructor on the table。

In fact, now these bigwigs of the Kong family are more thinking about how to stand in line in the future, although Kong Boyuan is only the "second" of the Kong family , but there are not many family members who really stand behind Kong Boyuan, after all, Kong Boyuan is just because he has suffered some losses in age, and he is not necessarily worse than Kong Bosheng in terms of ability, and he has never had the opportunity to take charge of the head of the Kong family because he has not done too shocking things, but this does not mean that he will definitely not be able to do it, so many of the big men of the Kong family naturally hope that Kong Boyuan can take this opportunity to take the position, if they can succeed, they can naturally share a lot of benefits in the next Xicheng defense matter。 You must know that it is a real military power, as long as you can be qualified to lead the army, even if it is only a team of 100 people, it is naturally a good thing.

As businessmen, in fact, these people are not more concerned about the fact that they can have more opportunities to show off their military power because they have military power, but because military power means privileges, and when they go to expand their business and contacts later, an identity with a head and a face is naturally better than a simple businessman's identity.

Now the atmosphere in the council hall is extremely depressing, but it seems that all the pressure finally fell on the old lady of the Kong family, Kong Shi. To tell the truth, Kong Shi himself is not an outstanding person, when he was in charge of the Kong family, he did not make much contribution to the growth of the Kong family, this old man who was in charge of the Kong family can only be regarded as a person who keeps the success at most, of course, at least the Kong family did not go downhill when he was in charge of the Kong family, which is already a good thing in itself. In addition, because Confucius's talent can only be regarded as mediocre, and when Confucius was doing things, he caught up with Qin Yuesheng in his heyday, and as a result, Confucius was naturally compared to be more mediocre.

Of course, this is not a tragic thing, after all, everyone who is the same era as Qin Yuesheng is trampled under his feet. People like Kong Shi, who had fought against Qin Yuesheng back then, would have a headache every time they thought of that guy, and the other party was really the kind of existence that made people desperate at the thought of confronting him.

However, if Kong Shi and the others knew Qin Yuesheng's true identity and knew what he really cared about, maybe their mood would be a little calmer. After all, without knowing Qin Yuesheng's true identity, these people naturally treat Qin Yuesheng as a person of the same kind, but in fact, Qin Yuesheng's level is far higher than them, such a strong guy also "competed on the same stage" with them back then, and the good thing to say can be said to be unequal confrontation, and the ugly thing to say is actually a joke.

But in the final analysis, it was all a matter of the previous generation, Qin Yuesheng had been in seclusion for many years, and Kong Shi had already lived a life of commanding behind the scenes, and because the next generation he cultivated was brilliant, especially the eldest and second in the family, of course, this situation was also what he was most willing to see. But the old man inevitably made some mistakes in his ability in this matter, or this is not a problem at all, but a consequence caused by lack of ability.

Kong Shiming knew that the eldest and second eldest were always fighting for the position of the patriarch of the family, but what he could do was to be impartial, and he did not use too clever means to show it, and the final result was that in fact, Kong Bosheng and Kong Boyuan were both very angry in their hearts, and it can only be said that these two people are indeed capable people, and they do not do anything excessive for the sake of the family's interests on weekdays, but to this extent, it seems that they have touched their respective scales.

Kong Bosheng always thinks that his ability is enough to be qualified for the position of the patriarch of the family, of course, he has indeed done this over the years, his ability to steadily suppress Kong Boyuan is naturally the embodiment of his ability, although he is not necessarily much smarter than Kong Boyuan, but at least he does not lose his younger brother in terms of ability, and in Kong Bosheng's view, Kong Boyuan has always been deliberately trying to take away his position as patriarch, he can understand it somewhat, after all, this position is naturally liked by everyone, but his biggest grievance is because of Kong Shi, after all, he is the eldest in the family, and his ability is indeed outstanding, but the old lady has always turned a blind eye to the matter of guarding the position of the patriarch, the authority of the patriarch was not protected in the slightest.

But what's funny is that looking at this matter in reverse, Kong Boyuan is naturally dissatisfied, and he is dissatisfied with Confucius, after all, in his opinion, his ability is absolutely capable of the position of patriarch, and it is only because of age that there has been no more progress, but this matter originally wanted to pin his hopes on Confucius, but the result was the same as no effective feedback.

Now the two brothers, Kong Bosheng and Kong Boyuan, are not so much bringing everyone together to discuss the future development of the Kong family, but waiting for Kong Shi to make a final decision. Both Kong Bosheng and Kong Boyuan realized that today's incident seemed to be enough to put it on the surface and make a final decision. In fact, in the end, Kong Bosheng was a little apprehensive, after all, he had to admit that the news that Kong Boyuan brought back this time was too shocking, and with this great merit, it was not impossible for him to sit on the throne of the patriarch of the Kong family, and Kong Bosheng's only hope was that Kong Shi, at this time, whether the authority of the patriarch could be protected depends on how Kong Shi decides.

On the contrary, Kong Boyuan is naturally waiting for the final verdict, in his opinion, all his previous efforts are not in vain, every previous attempt has failed in the end, the reason is that his credit is not too big, but this time things have reversed, all the previous excuses will really be too pale if they are moved out again, Kong Boyuan is calm, in his opinion, this time the matter is naturally already in hand.

But the time for everyone to wait was too long, and when the whole thing had been laid out on the surface, Confucius was silent all the time, and his silence also caused the others here to take the initiative to say anything. In the end, Kong Boyuan, as the most active party in this incident, finally couldn't help but ask: "Old patriarch, should there be a result in this matter?"

"Well, yes, it's time for a result. Kong Shi nodded, the old patriarch did a good job, but after nodding, there was no follow-up.

Before Kong Boyuan could continue to ask, Kong Bosheng on the side had already spoken: "Second brother, you are in a bit of a hurry in this matter. ”

"Am I in a hurry?" Kong Boyuan sneered, looked at this guy who was about to become a defeated soldier and said, "Am I in a hurry, or are you not brave enough?"

"Presumptuous, how can you speak?" Kong Bosheng said with a roar of rage.

Just when the atmosphere was becoming tense, someone suddenly came in from outside and reported a message.

Zhou Yu is back.
