Chapter 78

The Patriarch of the Song Family, Song Lin, was tall and strong, with a completely different appearance from the other Patriarchs, more like a Jianghu warrior.

In fact, he also started as a Jianghu martial artist. In his early years, he was the head of the Escort Bureau. Later, with the income earned by the Escort Bureau, he took over a blacksmith shop in the city, specializing in buying and selling swords for Jianghu people, and occasionally selling some daily-use items to some common people. .

Farm tools and furniture are all within his range of sales, and he has a deep connection with people in the world, and he is also an ally with the Zhen family.

Zhen Heng, the Patriarch of the Zhen family, has a pale face that doesn't have to look like an eunuch. Judging from his age, the Patriarch of the Zhen family doesn't seem very old, but in fact he is in the same generation as the dead Gu Chengping.

He also knows martial arts, but he doesn't know how strong he is. He used to be the opponent of the Gu family in Dan'an City.

Now too.

Gu Qianjun broke into the door, locked on the two people who were still in a strange mood just now, and said to them in a cold voice:

"Patriarch Zhen, Patriarch Song, talking about others behind their backs is the 'etiquette' you are talking about?"

Song Lin and Zhen Heng were startled by Gu Qianjun's actions first, then they looked at each other when they heard Gu Qianjun's words, and Song Lin said:
"Is there anything wrong with what I said? Could it be that the current Patriarch Gu is not an illegitimate child..."

Song Lin was only halfway through his words when he suddenly stopped strangely, his eyes fixed on Gu Chen who walked in, and there was an inexplicable look in his eyes.

This appearance made everyone present feel that something was wrong. They turned their heads to look behind Gu Qianjun. Gu Qianchen, the current head of the Gu family, followed his righteous brother into the room.

"I am the current Patriarch of the Gu family that Patriarch Song said. Does Patriarch Song have any doubts about my origin?"

Gu Chen who had just walked in had anger on his face for what Song Lin said.

But I don't know if it was Song Lin's own illusion, he seemed to see a little grievance from the other party's expression.

What Song Lin wanted to say was completely speechless the moment he saw Gu Chen. His aura weakened a little, and he was unable to speak for a long time with his mouth open.

On the other hand, Zhen Heng, whose expression suddenly became more gloomy, said to Gu Chen:

"What? It's wrong to say that you are an illegitimate child? Aren't you an illegitimate child?"

Gu Chen's face flushed with anger, and he was about to speak, but Gu Qianjun who was at the side spoke before him:

"Patriarch Zhen! Now Ning Shun is the head of my Gu family and the adopted son of the fourth master of the Gu family. You should think clearly before you speak!"

"Don't use the Gu family to pressure me! Now we are talking about your Dan'an Gu family!"

Zhen Heng looked at Gu Chen even more unkindly, and a sinister look flashed in his eyes.

Gu Qianjun said without giving in at all:

"The Gu family in Ningzhou is originally one. If the reputation of the Gu family is damaged, then the Zhen family will not be the only one facing the Zhen family."

"..."

Zhen Heng was speechless this time.

Indeed, there are many branches of the Gu family in Ningzhou, and the main family will not help the branch families deal with local troubles, so the members of the main family will probably die of exhaustion.

But troubles are also graded. Similar to the case of Dan'an's Gu family being wiped out, although the Gu family will send people to deal with it, they will not help too much. Anyway, this is the work of Pinghu Division.

But if the Gu family's reputation is damaged, the Ningzhou family will not let the matter go so easily.

After all, in this world, fame is more important than life.

But Zhen Heng didn't speak, but someone did. It was a young man who was sitting next to Zhen Heng and thought he was Zhen Heng's junior.

"The Gu family in Ningzhou is so majestic. Those who didn't know would think that your Gu family has already become king in Ningzhou."

The young man said with a sneer, the words he said surprised everyone, Gu Qianjun looked at the young man with a gloomy expression, and asked:
"Who are you?"

"Tianjian Pavilion, true disciple, Yue He."

The young man got up and saluted, and looked at Gu Qianjun with a smile on his face.

Gu Qianjun narrowed his eyes slightly, looking at the young man's waist.

Before Yue He was sitting on the seat, his lower body was blocked by the table, so that Gu Qianjun couldn't see the sword on his waist.

Now that Yue He stood up, Gu Qianjun saw beside him, the exclusive sword from Tianjian Pavilion, a square sword.

There are disciples of Tianjian Pavilion here, which proves that the information Gu Qianjun received before is not wrong. The Zhen family has indeed been in contact with Tianjian Pavilion, but they don't know why the disciples of Tianjian Pavilion came to Dan'an City.

While thinking in his heart, Gu Qianjun continued to speak:
"Tianjian Pavilion? Heh, even a disciple of Tianjian Pavilion should know what to say and what not to say."

"Oh? Why don't Brother Gu tell me what should I say in Dan'an City?"

Yue He, a disciple of Tianjiange, had no intention of giving in when facing Gu Qianjun, even though he knew that Gu Qianjun was from the Gu family.

Gu Chen listened to the verbal confrontation between the two behind him, thinking in his heart.

Tianjiange is the number one sect in the Jianghu, and its status in the court is also very special. In terms of status, Tianjiange does not have to be afraid of the Gu family who is the overlord of Ningzhou.

That's why Yue He dared to talk back to Gu Qianjun.

Gu Qianjun and Yue He ridiculed each other, and the atmosphere was very unpleasant, but the two didn't talk for long. Tao Yuan, who was the owner of the banquet and also the owner of the restaurant, felt that it was almost done, so he persuaded:
"Ahem, well, since everyone is here, please sit down, let's chat while eating."

"Patriarch Tao, I don't think there is anything to talk about."

Zhen Heng said suddenly: "I don't think the Gu family has any intention of doing business with us, and they have no sincerity at all!"

"Patriarch Zhen is the one who is not sincere!" Gu Qianjun raised his voice a bit and said, "First you insulted my younger brother, and then you insulted my Gu family. I think Patriarch Zhen is the one who doesn't want to talk about business!"

Zhen Heng and Gu Qianjun were at war, when the only old man in the room who did not speak finally said:

"Okay, okay, let's put the fire away. How can Patriarch Gu make the atmosphere so stiff just after he arrived? How can we talk about it next?
"Patriarch Zhen, brother Gu, you two sit down first, let's talk slowly."

The old man who spoke out was the Patriarch of the Li Family in Dan'an City.

Because of the family business, the Li family has a good relationship with several other families, and they often sit in the position of peacemaker. In addition, the head of the Li family is also the oldest among them, so if he speaks, Everyone will more or less give face.

Someone spoke, and Zhen Heng and Gu Qianjun found the steps. They snorted at the same time, and then found a place to sit down.

Gu Chen also sat next to Gu Qianjun, his eyes swept over the few people present.

He looked at Song Lin who was apologetic to him, and then at Zhen Heng who had an obvious dislike for him.

As for the last one, Yue He, a disciple of Tianjian Pavilion who looked at him in a daze, the corners of Gu Chen's mouth couldn't help but curl up slightly.

Although it seems that the Zhen family, the Song family, and the disciples of Tianjiange are in a state of cooperation.

But Gu Chen felt that the duration of their ally relationship might not be very long.

Thinking of this, Gu Chen felt very happy.
