In Huangpu City, Huangpu Ling took Li Xunhuan to resign with Huangpu Gui. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Big brother......" Huang Pu Ling looked at Huang Pu Kei in front of her. The high-spirited big brother in the past now has a feeling of heroic twilight!
Originally, Huangpu Kei, who had reached the cultivation of a grandmaster, looked like he should be in the prime of his thirties, but in just a few days, Huangpu Kei looked like he was more than ten years old, his temples were a little gray, and the whole person looked much older.
"Little sister, you're here. "Huangpu Gui is not so depressed, although he looks a little depressed on the outside, but his spirit is not bad, he looked at Huangpu Ling and Li Xunhuan, "Are you going to 'Wangbei City'?"
"Hmm. Huang Pu Ling nodded, watching Huang Pu Kei open his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
"It's good, it's good. Huangpu Gui didn't pay attention to his little sister's demeanor, nodded and said, "Now you won't be able to stay well in Huangpu City, although 'Wangbei City' is a little remote, it is also a big city in the Northland, and there is no shortage of supplies!"
"Big brother...... Huang Pu Ling only felt a sour nose, and tears rolled in her eyes.
In the Huangpu family, the only thing that Huangpu Ling has feelings for is this eldest brother. Although more than ten years ago, for the benefit of the family, Huang Pu Kei was also one of the members of the family involved in the murder of her fiancé. But Huang Pu Ling knew that Huang Pu Kei didn't actually have much ability to resist.
The position of the head of the Huangpu family seems to be glamorous, but it is not as good as it seems. Unlike those elders of the Shangguan family and the Gongsun family, because they are not great grandmasters, they have no strength and no prestige to control the patriarch and family. The Great Elder of the Huangpu Family, Huang Pu Sheng, is a real Grand Master, and he has supreme authority and status in the Huangpu Family!
Although in order to avoid different voices in the family, Great Elder Huang Pu Sheng rarely speaks, it doesn't mean that he doesn't care about the control of the Huang Pu family!
The plan to use Huang Pu Ling to attack her fiancé's family more than ten years ago was proposed and led by Huang Pu Sheng, which directly led to Huang Pu Ling's tragic situation later!
Although Huang Pu Kei has the strong support of Huang Pu Sheng in the matter of becoming the patriarch! But everyone knows that this is just some superficial actions of Huang Pu Sheng! In fact, he has always been the only power decision-maker in the Huang Pu family!
"It's really ...... the Great Elder to do this" Huang Pu Ling was about to say something, but Huang Pu Kei waved his hand to stop him.
"Don't say it. Kei shook his head and sighed, "Actually, he didn't do anything wrong!"
"But ......"
"After Sheng'er died unexpectedly, I was once condemned by the entire family, although under the maintenance of Ying'er and you, my position as patriarch was still retained!
"In the past three years, my cronies in the Huangpu family have gradually been alienated from the core layer. Up to now, there aren't many people in the entire Huangpu family that I can command!"
"Why is this?!" Huang Pu Ling's face showed dissatisfaction, she also knew the situation of the family in the past three years, and she had always been very disgusted with this kind of behavior of unloading and killing donkeys.
"You should have guessed that, right?" Huang Pu Kei did not answer, but looked at Li Xunhuan, who had been silent on the side.
"Yes. Li Xunhuan nodded, "The future patriarch of the Huangpu family is not the son of the current patriarch, so naturally he can't leave the cronies of the current patriarch in the center." After all, after the future patriarch succeeds to the throne, he can't have elbows!"
"You're still too light!" Kei Huangpu laughed, shook his head, and said, "It's okay! Anyway, it's already here, what does it matter if it's serious or not?!"
"In the past three years, although I have known their movements, I have not made any movements. Huang Pu Kei sighed, looked at his sister and said softly, "Because I know that this is the general trend! I can't occupy the position of the patriarch forever! In order for Yuan'er to inherit the position of patriarch smoothly in the future, the great elder should weaken my power and strength step by step!"
"But I'm still wrong!" said Kei Huangpu, a hint of frustration on his face, "I thought that if I obediently surrendered power and didn't cause trouble to them, they would let me live in peace." At least it won't bother my loved ones!"
"I didn't expect them to still refuse to let Ying'er go, forcing him to marry the Qian family of 'North Wind City'!" Huang Pu Gui said this, and there was a little smile on his face.
You must know that the matter of Huangpu Ying has always been regarded as a shame by the Huangpu family, don't say that he showed a relieved smile when he mentioned this matter, and others did not have a good word.
"Ying'er did a good job!" Huangpu Kei's next words surprised Huangpu Ling even more.
"The 'North Wind City' Qian family is just a small family with no interest, although it has been inherited for many years, but it has no courage and ignorance! Do big things and cherish your life, and forget your righteousness when you see small profits! Even if Qian Shaobin is known as a young generation of handsome heroes, it can't offset the Qian family's unproductive future!"
"I thought that in this life, in addition to indebting you, I would also owe my daughter......! Ying'er agrees on the surface, but she has her own insistence in her heart! This time, although the 'North Wind City' incident has gained infamy, it is really gratifying that she was able to retreat from the whirlpool of the Huangpu family!"
"Little sister ......" After saying this, Huangpu Kei looked at his sister again and said with a serious face, "The Huangpu family is not a humane family, and everything is in danger of profit. If...... If you can talk more, you should also think of getting out of it......"
"Big brother....... Huang Pu Ling looked at her eldest brother with a look of surprise. She used to know how much her eldest brother cared about this family, but she didn't want to ask her to find a chance to escape from the family's control now, which was really ......
"The matter between you and Xunhuan, unless the Great Elder nods, it will never be possible!" Huangpu Gui sighed, looked at his sister and said softly, "And the Great Elder will never let you marry! In the end, I'm afraid it may even endanger Xunhuan's life!"
"This ......" Huang Pu Ling hesitated. In her mind, Li Xunhuan's status is definitely not low! If it really comes to that moment, I'm afraid she will really regret it for the rest of her life!
"You go down first, I have something to explain to Xunhuan. Huang Pu Kei waved his hand and turned to look at Li Xunhuan.
"Yes......" Huang Puling glanced at his eldest brother, then looked at Li Xunhuan, and after getting Li Xunhuan's nod, he walked out of the room step by step.
"......" was silent for a while, and Huang Pu Gui did not talk to Li Xunhuan immediately after his sister left, but looked at each other calmly.
Li Xunhuan didn't speak, he didn't know what the other party meant, but from the feeling, the other party didn't have anything unfavorable and targeted for him.
"You've always been in contact with Gu Yi, right?" After a long silence, Huangpu Gui suddenly said, "I think that Gu Yi left the Huangpu family a few years ago, not because he was held hostage or coerced by someone, but in case my Huangpu family took the opportunity of his parents to leave, right?"
"......" Li Xunhuan didn't speak, he couldn't control the other party's attitude and thoughts for a while, and simply continued to be silent.
"In fact, in the past three years, I have always known that you are the link between Ying'er and Gu Yi. Seeing that Li Xunhuan didn't speak, Huangpu Gui didn't care, but continued, "Someone told me about Ying'er's contact with Gu Yi through you a long time ago!"
"......" Li Xunhuan's brows furrowed slightly, and his eyes became a little sharp.
"It seems that my guess is right, Gu Yi must be preparing something. Could it be that the heir of the ancient surname among the five noble surnames is really him?!" Huangpu Gui felt the killing intent on Li Xunhuan's body, and smiled indifferently, "Don't worry! Except for me, all those who know that Ying'er is in contact with Gu Yi through you can't tell anyone!"
"Why?" Li Xunhuan was stunned for a moment, then looked at the other party and asked.
"Because I'm disappointed in the Huangpu family!" Huangpu Kei raised his head and sighed deeply, "Since Sheng'er's death, my situation and experience have told me. It turns out that in the eyes of the family and the Great Elder, I am nothing! Even if I am dedicated to the family, I am just a pawn of the family! A chess piece that can be discarded at any time after it has no use value!"
"Since the family regards me as a mustard, why do I need to regard the family as a sibling?!" Huang Pu Kei said here, his tone revealing a bit of desolation and resentment, "I've been waiting for you to take Ying'er away!"
"When Ying'er accepted the family's arrangement to go to the 'North Wind City', I was very disappointed in you and Gu Yi for a while!" Huangpu Gui looked at Li Xunhuan again, "If it weren't even for what happened three days ago, I would have thought of finding Gu Yi through you as a punishment for him for failing Ying'er!"
"But fortunately, Gu Yi didn't disappoint me!" said Huang Pu Kei here, and he couldn't help laughing.
In the battle of 'North Wind City', although everyone accused Huang Puying of cruelty and ruthlessness, they ignored Huang Puying's subordinates!
Outsiders thought that these subordinates were trained by Huang Pu Ying himself, and even before the family asked Huang Pu Kei if he knew about these subordinates trained by Huang Pu Ying.
Huang Pu Kei knew that those people must be Gu Yi's people! From this, it can be inferred that Gu Yi is definitely not as simple as it is written in the intelligence!
Huangpu Gui concluded that Gu Yi must be the descendant of the Gu clan in the 'Shanggui Five Clans', not only has his own forces, but also plots something!
Otherwise, Gu Yi would not have such mysterious and powerful strength, let alone train his subordinates secretly.
I have to say that although Huang Pu Kei guessed a little wrong, the overall direction is still correct! At least Huang Pu Kei has already concluded that Gu Yi has his own forces and is planning something!
"The grudge between the Gu clan and my Huangpu clan is irresolvable! But it doesn't matter! Ying'er leaves, if you take Ling'er away again, whether the Huangpu family will perish or not, what does it have to do with me?!"
"......" Li Xunhuan didn't have any expression on his face, but his heart was turned upside down. I didn't expect that I and the others were so careful and still noticed by the other party, if it weren't for the fact that Huangpu Keixin was dead, Gu Yi would be exposed in advance! )
