Supreme Excalibur

Chapter 25 I am the Patriarch
Holding hands, the two returned to the royal courtyard where the Duan family was temporarily staying.As soon as he entered the gate of the other courtyard, he saw the Great Elder Duan Ye and the elders of his family standing outside the living room directly opposite the gate, and Duan Mu stood beside him alone, his face full of grievances.

"Sister Luoxue, no matter what happens later, don't interrupt!"

Seeing the appearance of Great Elder Duan Ye mobilizing teachers and mobilizing the crowd, Duan Lang immediately understood that this was a bad comer!

After shaking Luoxue's hand vigorously, Duan Lang reluctantly let go of his hand, and moved forward slightly by half a body than Luoxue.The two came in front of the elders of the Duan family. Duan Lang still kept a faint smile on his face, looking at the elder Duan Ye: "Elder, everyone is standing here, is there anything important?"

"Duan Lang, do you know that you are the head of the Duan family?"

"I know, what? Did I do something I shouldn't do?"

Duan Ye stared, and said: "Duan Lang, since you know that you are the head of the family, why did you register as a mercenary? Don't you know that is something that lower-class people would do? If you do this, what is the face of the Duan family? ? Although the Duan family suffered a sudden attack, the foundation of the Duan family is still there. If you do this, won't you discredit our Duan family?"

Listening to the reprimand from the Great Elder Duan Ye, Duan Lang shrugged his shoulders and didn't take it seriously.And his attitude naturally angered the Great Elder and the elders present, and all the elders exchanged glances.The Great Elder Duan Ye immediately spoke with a serious expression, and continued: "Duan Lang, in view of your performance, the Elder Council has decided to re-examine your position as Patriarch!"

As soon as he said this, Duan Lang's face changed.Looking up at the elders present, Duan Lang raised the corner of his mouth slightly, and said softly: "What is the fifth rule of the Duan family?"

"The Duan family members follow the orders of the Patriarch, and those who disobey will be expelled!" Duan Lang's voice was very soft, but the very soft voice made Duan Ye, the great elder, shudder.Article [-] of the Duan Family Rules indeed said so.Although the Duan family rules also stated that the elders have the right to remove the Patriarch, the premise is that what the Patriarch does will endanger the survival of the Duan Family.

"Today's incident, I can pretend it never happened. If there is a next time, Great Elder, I don't think I need to say more?"

"Follow the patriarch's order!"

"All the elders are Duan Lang's ancestors and great-grandfathers. Duan Lang has always kept your words in mind. However, I hope you understand one thing, that is, I, Duan Lang, am the Patriarch!"

The patriarch is a symbol of status, even if Duan Lang does not hold the power of the Duan family, even if Duan Lang may not really know the details of the Duan family.But he is the patriarch, and his status in the Duan family is supreme. Even if it is the elders, as long as Duan Lang does not do anything to deceive the master and destroy the ancestors, and does not bring the Duan family into the crisis of extermination, he is the supreme patriarch.

"Now, let's go!"

In terms of momentum, classmate Duan Lang doesn't have it, and in terms of the power mastered by the Duan family, Duan Lang doesn't have it either.However, what he has is enough to deter the entire Duan family.

Patriarch, the position of patriarch recognized by Emperor Long Zhanye determines Duan Lang's status.Although, his patriarch has not been written into the genealogy, but that is only a matter of time.Of course, if Duan Lang was killed during this period, then he would no longer be the master of the Duan family.

Taking Duan Mu and Luoxue back to his small yard, Duan Lang slumped on the chair like a deflated ball.Putting on airs with the elders, student Duan Lang's heart beat twice as fast, but the situation was more severe at the time, and he could not be allowed to show weakness.Fortunately, I finally made it through!

"Master, I'm sorry, I didn't control my mouth properly!"

"It's none of your business!" Duan Lang will not implicate innocent people, and he will never be able to hide the matter of being a mercenary for a long time.Duan Mu said it first, which gave Duan Lang an excuse to end it earlier.After sitting on the chair for a while and slowly calming down, Duan Lang looked at Duan Mu and asked, "Is there anything else happening during this period?"

"Well, there is one more thing. In the evening, the thirteenth prince of the Fenglong Empire sent someone to send a message, saying that he will come to duel with the young master tomorrow!"

"I knew that these old foxes were not that simple. Their feelings were not optimistic about the young master. I was afraid that the young master would lose and lose their Duan family members." Duan Lang patted the table angrily, suddenly paused, looked at Duan Mu, and said: "Duan Mu, what did you have for dinner?"

"I haven't eaten yet, young master, well, I haven't eaten lunch yet, I'm very hungry!"

"They won't give you food?"

"At noon, the kitchen said that there was no food, and the elders left it there at night, so there should be no food right now!"

"Go, go to the kitchen with Master Ben!"

Classmate Duan Lang was angry. It seemed that he, the head of the family, was really not taken seriously by others.Duan Mu is the No. [-] follower by his side. As for Duan Zheng, the No. [-] follower, he is busy practicing exercises and sword skills at the moment, so he is temporarily off duty.The No. [-] follower around me is so despised by others, because my uncle can bear it, but my sister-in-law can't bear it either.

"Master, you don't want to show off the prestige of the patriarch, do you?" Luoxue grabbed Duan Lang's arm who was about to go out, and at the same time reached out to stop Duan Mu.

"Yeah, Sister Luoxue, this group of people is too much. People say that it depends on the owner to beat a dog. It's okay for these guys to ignore me. They actually let my people have no food. If I don't teach them a lesson, my patriarch will really become a display. Hmph, no way!"

"Duan Lang, calm down, you're already in a lot of trouble now. The people in the kitchen, you can teach them a lesson, but how do you teach them? After the lesson is over, will those people be obedient? If they know something about food Hands and feet, you patriarch, hmph, I'm afraid you'll become a ghost!"

"Dare they?"

"Why not?"

Luoxue firmly grabbed Duan Lang's hand, pulled him back, and said earnestly, "Since Patriarch Nalan asked me to follow you, then I have to be responsible to you. If you are so reckless, you will suffer a lot!"

"But, what do you want me to do then?"

"It's very simple, let Duan Mu go to the kitchen to order, and just say that you want to eat supper. If they don't bring it, or if it doesn't suit your taste, you can show your prestige as the master!"

"Is it any different than when I go now?"

"Of course, go now, you are clearly looking for trouble. But, it will be different later, it will be that they are the servants who neglect you, the head of the family, and the effect will be completely different. At that time, you can even use the kitchen Everyone in the house has been cleaned up, and no one will trouble you. But if you go now, people will only think that you are venting your personal anger. As a patriarch, you have to learn to use your brain!"

"Then, listen to you!" Classmate Duan Lang sat down on the chair, and looked at Duan Mu bitterly, "Duan Mu, it seems that I can only trouble you to make a trip!"

"Master, this is what I should do. Wait a minute, I'll go to the kitchen right away!"

Soon, Aunt Duan rushed back, and the news she brought was very unpleasant. The steward of the kitchen still said that the food and materials were gone, and the new materials could only be bought early tomorrow morning.

"Okay, now you can go to the kitchen and cause trouble!"

With a faint smile in Luo Xue's eyes, she followed Duan Lang and Duan Mu out of the yard and went straight to the kitchen.

Although this is the other courtyard of the royal family, the area is quite large.There are several hundred members of the Duan family living here, so it doesn't look crowded.As for the kitchen, it is in a courtyard not far from Duan Lang's small courtyard. The stewards in it are collateral children of the Duan family, and the cooks are also members of the Duan family.

"Who's in charge?"

Duan Lang kicked over the bench outside the kitchen, knocked down the table next to him, and looked aggressively at the few people who were still eating there.

"The chief steward went out at noon and hasn't come back yet!"

A chef with a fat stomach and a round belly stood up with a very unkind expression.Duan Mu stood beside Duan Lang, and said in a low voice: "Master, he is the one who said there is no food, and he is the one who said that the materials are all used up!"

"Who are you in the kitchen?"

"Chef!"

"It's you who said that the kitchen is out of food? It's also you who said that the kitchen has no materials?" Duan Mu's voice was not low, on the contrary, it could be said to be very high.Such a loud voice quickly attracted the members of the Duan family from several yards near the kitchen. Among the people who came, the elder Duan Ye was also among them.

The fat and round chef stared at Duan Lang and said loudly, "I didn't say that!"

"Really?"

Duan Lang stared at the chef, suddenly laughed, and said, "Since there is still food, why don't you send it to my yard?"

"I,……"

The chef stopped talking, and a fat woman next to him interjected: "Master Duan Lang, isn't that because you weren't in the yard during dinner?"

"I'm not in the yard, don't the people in my yard have to eat?"

"This,……"

Fat women also misfired.

"Also," Duan Lang looked coldly at these people in the kitchen, "Also, my identity, remember, I am the head of the Duan family now, Master Duan Lang, did I allow you to shout like that? When grandpa was here, I don't care how you indulged you. Now that I'm the head of the family, it's up to me what I say."

Duan Lang's voice was very loud, not only to reprimand the people in the kitchen, but also to tell the surrounding Duan family members that I, Duan Lang, are the head of the family.Perhaps in terms of seniority, you may be my elders, but in the Duan family, the first priority is the supremacy of the patriarch, and then other things.

"Today's incident can only happen once. If there is another time, the consequences of offending the Patriarch are clearly stipulated in the family rules. You can handle it yourself."

First, a big stick was knocked down, which stunned the people in the kitchen and the surrounding audience.Then, it's time to apply some kindness, stick and carrot, but it's an excellent way to buy people's hearts.So, Duan Lang immediately said: "I'm hungry, make something to eat, and send it to my yard!"

"Yes, please wait a moment, Patriarch!"

The chef quickly agreed, his expression was completely different from before.As for the onlookers of the Duan family, they kept their mouths shut and watched Duan Lang and the others leave.

"Elder, if this continues, our Duan family is afraid..."

"Third brother, the Duan family will be fine!" Duan Ye glared at the third elder who was talking to him, "Although Xiaolang may not become a swordsman of the Gao family, I believe he will definitely lead the Duan family to glory. of!"

"Hope it!"

A trace of ruthlessness flashed in the third elder's eyes, but the first elder's eyes were always focused on Duan Lang, and he didn't notice anything unusual about the third elder. "I did a good job!" When Duan Lang whispered to Luo Xue beside him and fell into the ears of the first elder, the first elder who had high hopes for Duan Lang just now turned pale, while the third elder was smiling I am very proud.
