Chapter 1 Eh, it's been calculated
Old Dog Chen of Liuli City died.
The news soon spread to all the forces in the north of the Qingzhou boundary.
Since ancient times, one of the most turbulent periods of power was the time of the change of the old and new regimes.
At this point, all forces have set their sights on this stormy city-state.
Liulicheng, Chen's family.
The funeral, which lasted for more than a month, was finally over.
At this time, the Chen family was immersed in the tranquility before the storm.
In the courtyard, Chen Muyun, who was wearing gold on a black background, stood in front of a withered ginkgo tree in the courtyard, his hands in his cuffs, slightly distracted.
It's late autumn, everything is withering, and the yellow leaves are gone with the wind.
According to the established script, the curtain call is perfect.
Everything seems to be arranged.
However, there always seems to be an exception to everything.
An uninteresting leaf still hangs on the branch, no matter how the autumn wind tores it, it just refuses to fall.
This situation is very similar to Chen Muyun's current situation.
Weak, but not yet resigned to fate.
Now, according to Chen Laogou's will, Chen Muyun has become the new successor of Liulicheng.
As a time-traveler who has been working hard for eight years.
According to the progress of general novels, Chen Muyun at this time should be about to embark on the rhythm of the peak of life.
But, unfortunately, the script that Chen Muyun got didn't seem to be very good.
If he had a choice, Chen Muyun would rather not be this successor.
Or rather, he shouldn't have taken the unlucky letter in the first place.
About two months ago.
Chen Muyun, who had been in Qingzhou for eight years, suddenly received a letter from home.
Old Dog Chen is going to die.
Chen Muyun, who was not close to the Chen family, thought that he was routinely going home to see the last time.
But what he never expected was that after seeing the dying Chen Laogou, he was told that he was about to become the successor of Liuli City!
As a waste recognized by the Chen family as a rare waste in a century.
Chen Muyun has suffered from the white eyes of his clansmen since he was a child.
So after crossing over, Chen Muyun chose to leave the Chen family to develop alone as soon as possible.
But now, Chen Laogou suddenly came to such a play, although he didn't know what Chen Laogou was thinking in his heart, but there was one thing that Chen Muyun still understood very clearly.
The current glazed city can live up to the glory of the past, that is, a hot pot, whoever picks up is unlucky!
Otherwise, how could he Chen Laogou become so kind-hearted and suddenly wait to see his waste grandson.
What's more, with the attitude of the clan towards Chen Muyun, even if he became the city lord, the resistance he encountered must be unprecedented.
This kind of thankless thing, Chen Muyun is too lazy to do.
Xu saw that Chen Muyun was unwilling to take over the burden easily, and the old dog Chen, who was alive and well, seemed to have been prepared for a long time.
So, he told Chen Muyun a secret that had been buried in his heart for many years, and it was precisely because of this that Chen Muyun had to take over the position of city lord.
Chen Muyun's father, Chen Boqing, the first hero who allowed the Chen family, a small family, to sit firmly in Liuli City.
The man known as the "Beeping Sword Venerable".
Actually, it's just a packaged look!
In fact, Chen Boqing is the first waste in the history of the Chen family that is rare in a hundred years.
When he heard the news, Chen Muyun scoffed!
Because he really couldn't believe that the man who had terrified Qingzhou Jiebei was a good thing, or he preferred to believe that it was Chen Laogou who made up a lie in order to let him succeed Liulicheng.
To say that Chen Muyun has been working alone outside these years, although he has relied on his own ability, his inner confidence still has something to do with Chen Boqing.
But now, it is said that the man who once overturned everything is actually an impotence.
It was unconvincing.
However......
Chen Laogou's explanation is like a hammer, which makes this fact more real.
To say that people who can afford to support one side of the forces in this troubled world are not good, and the same is true of Chen Laogou.
Now, there are two paths in front of Chen Muyun.
Give up Liuli City and continue to live a prodigal life, but in this way, with the attitude of the Chen family towards him, no matter who takes over as the city lord, he will inevitably clean up Chen Muyun's waste.
As for Chen Boqing, he is a good guy himself, and he has long since faded out of the affairs of the Chen family in the name of sealing the sword.
If you don't contribute to the Chen family, you will definitely be marginalized in the future, and you will end up being swept away.
In this way, without the support of the family forces, Chen Boqing's former enemies will definitely wait for an opportunity to seek revenge, and at that time, Chen Muyun will eat his father's melons and waterlogs, which will be enough for him to die a few times back and forth.
However, if Chen Muyun chooses to take over Liuli City, the result may be different, as long as he operates properly, Chen Boqing's layer of window paper is not pierced, then it is still a hole card that can deter the opponent, but he needs to face the pressure within the Chen family and the ruined Liuli City.
As the saying goes, the lesser of two evils!
After thinking about it again, Chen Muyun still bent over to the cruel reality......
"Old thing, it seems that the master has already been counted."
Chen Muyun drooped his eyelids and muttered to himself with a loveless look.
"Young master."
At this time, a slightly old voice came from behind him, and an old man of about fifty appeared behind Chen Muyun
The person who came, named Zhou Tianfang, was the first subordinate to be subdued by Chen Muyun after the crossing, and he was also one of Chen Muyun's think tanks.
"Young master, the posts have been handed out, but ......"
"But no one wants to come, right?" Chen Muyun said in a calm tone.
Zhou Tianfang didn't speak, as if he had acquiesced.
"I understand, if it were me, I wouldn't come."
Regarding the reaction of the Chen family, Chen Muyun actually expected it, after all, it was not a matter of a day or two that the people in the clan looked down on him.
"Young master, what are your plans next?"
Hearing this, Chen Muyun didn't answer directly, he moved his hands in his cuffs, lowered his head, and looked thoughtful.
After a long time, he suddenly asked a rhetorical question.
"Boss Zhou, you've been here for a while, and you have a general understanding of things inside and outside the city, I want to hear what you think of the current situation."
Zhou Tianfang was stunned, he didn't expect Chen Muyun to suddenly ask like this, thought for a while, and replied: "If it is according to the old idea, the young master should not take over this glazed city, but now that he is in trouble...... As the saying goes, if you go outside, you must first settle inside, judging from the current situation in Liuli City, no matter what the young master wants to do, the Chen family can't get around, if you don't settle these people, I'm afraid there will be trouble in the future! ”
Chen Muyun nodded, agreeing with Zhou Tianfang's point of view.
"Do you think they'll listen to me?"
Hearing this, Zhou Tianfang shook his head with a smile, "Young Master, you actually already have the answer in your heart, why do you have to ask again, if you are not afraid of offending the young master, now that the Chen family has not blasted us out, it can be regarded as self-cultivation." ”
Chen Muyun scratched his head in embarrassment.
"Eh, the popularity is a little worse, huh?"
Zhou Tianfang didn't talk.
"Then why didn't they do it!"
"Huh?"
Zhou Tianfang was stunned by this sudden question.
"Young master, the old man doesn't quite understand what you mean."
Chen Muyun raised a finger and stood on his chest, and said mysteriously: "Because they have scruples, they don't dare to act rashly." ”
I don't understand the original Zhou Tianfang, who listened to it in the clouds.
"Let's go, Boss Zhou will take you somewhere."
"Young master, we ...... Where are we going? ”
"Find out the reason for their scruples!"
