Chapter 1331

"Uncle Xu, this is not appropriate." Gu Zheng said helplessly as he saw that everyone looked at him differently. He had offended so many people again.

"It doesn't matter. These grandsons of mine are spoiled by their father and can't even speak. They must be taught a lesson." Xu Jing said seriously, while his eyes kept scanning below to see who dared to make mistakes this time. We must use the wind of thunder to tell them not to provoke ancient disputes casually.

Gu Zheng is not an ordinary person. If he offends the other party, it will not be such a simple lesson. It is for their own good, but he cannot tell everyone.

"My sons are basically busy. Only a few are here. The others can't come back for the time being. Let me introduce them to you." Xu Jing's face turned cold and he said to Gu Zheng with a smile.

A man who looked closer to the front and looked to be forty years old introduced.

"This is my second son. Now he mainly helps me with some trivial matters outside. His mind is not bad."

Gu Zheng looked over and saw that he was relatively stable. He had never been hostile to Gu Zheng when he came in. Perhaps he was indifferent to emotion and anger. When he saw Gu Zheng looking over, he nodded with a smile.

Then he pointed to the one next to him,

"This is my fourth son"

"My eldest grandson"

Gu Zheng nodded as he listened and watched everyone's reactions. As expected, those Xu Jing's sons had an ordinary attitude towards him. They were very open-minded when they were middle-aged and would not use loyalty in this matter.

But those of the grandchildren are different. Although they nod at themselves even if they don't click on any of them, the dissatisfaction in their eyes is still clearly revealed. However, there are also a few who express kindness to themselves, including Xu Fei next to him. .

There are also seven wives in the Xu family. They seem to be really strong and mature, but it is obvious that except the eldest lady and the third lady are the most favored, it can be seen from the seating arrangement.

Of course, Xu Jing also had two brothers, but they did not live here, but lived over there, and they also joined the court as officials like him.

It took a full stick of incense to introduce everyone.

Gu Zheng saw that Xu Jing was so polite and he was not a stingy person. He took out smooth and round pearls and said to everyone.

"It's fate that we all meet each other. This is a little bit of my thoughts for you."

After saying that, he asked the maid next to him to distribute it, no more, no less, everyone including Xu Jing had some.

"Is this?" Xu Jing didn't expect that Gu Zheng would give something to everyone when he came up. Even if the thing was not good, it would still be the same if it came out of his hands.

"It's just a small thing. You usually hang it on your body. It can nourish your body at all times and keep your body healthy. If you are in fatal danger, you can eat it to guarantee your life, which is enough to ignore many deadly toxins." Gu Zheng said calmly. said.

Of course, these things are only for ordinary people like them, and they are effective even for fifth-level warriors. Shuang'er hurriedly made them last night just to give Gu Zheng a favor.

Seeing everyone looking at the pearls in their hands curiously, Gu Zheng remembered that the pearl in his hand had been placed by Xiangxiang when he left Li Jingli, hoping to protect her from danger.

Now the twin pearls are empty. It is estimated that they will not be able to breed new pearls for tens of thousands of years. I don’t know how long it will take to form them. In fact, for Guzheng, it has been abandoned, especially now that I have the evil power. The defense is even stronger than it, which is a bit useless. Maybe Gu Zheng will give it away sometime.

For this kind of external thing, and it is not powerful, Gu Zheng will not hold on to it because it is really of no use to him.

"Really? Is it that magical?" The little lady who was researching said curiously, especially when she heard that it could maintain good health, she wanted to eat it on the spot.

"Of course, it's just a gadget. I don't have any objection to how you deal with it. Also, I don't recommend eating it for minor injuries. You will naturally know it in one year." Gu Zheng looked at the third lady and nodded. He nodded and spoke out.

As for whether they believe it or not, Gu Zheng doesn't force it, this is Shuang'er's gift to them, to thank Shuang'er for taking them in.

The young lady's eyes brightened obviously. She saw Gu Zheng nodding his head without hesitation, and felt a burst of ecstasy in her heart. She looked at Gu Zheng and his companions with much softer eyes.

"Okay, I'll thank you on their behalf. Let's talk while we eat." Xu Jing laughed, put the pearls aside, and said to everyone.

He had achieved his goal at this time. After taking a few bites, he said to Gu Zheng, "Xiannie, I have to leave first. If you have anything to say, just tell me."

"Hey, Brother Gu, you are so awesome. If I hadn't known Grandpa's temper, I would have suspected that you were his illegitimate son. Otherwise, how could you be so good to you? It's beyond my imagination. I even had to give you up for leaving. Say hello," Xu Fei said enviously.

"It's nothing. It's just that I haven't seen it before, so that's why it's so special." Gu Zheng laughed speechlessly, seeing that everyone was already talking enthusiastically, but it was obvious that most of them were talking about himself.

Although they were all in low voices, he still heard clearly. Gu Zheng did not eavesdrop on their conversation, but asked Xu Fei next to him, "Do you know Xu Wei?"

"Xu Wei?" Xu Fei was a little stunned, swallowed the food in his mouth and asked doubtfully, "You mean the servant who brought you here? Did he offend you?"

"No, it's not him. Do you have any descendants named Xu Wei?" Gu Zheng then remembered that the man who brought him here seemed to be also named Xu Wei.

"Yes, that's my biological brother, but he made a mistake some time ago. In order to protect him, grandpa sent him to a service point in the snowy mountains." Xu Fei looked a little sad and said disappointedly.

Gu Zheng's heart moved. He didn't expect such a coincidence, but he still asked doubtfully.

"I see that everyone looks a little sad. Did something happen?" Gu Zheng said carefully.

Because despite everyone's friendly appearance, Gu Zheng could clearly see some worries deep in his eyes, otherwise Xu Jing wouldn't have left in a hurry.

"Hey, it's a bit far, and it happens to be related to my younger brother." Xu Fei sighed, picked up the glass of wine in front of him, drank it suddenly, and then spoke slowly to Gu Zheng.

In fact, it was very simple, because when Xu Wei came back, he told the family head that the Ye family actually sent people to seize the things he auctioned, and it seemed that they also recruited some people from the demon clan, who actually wanted to surround and kill him.

Especially Xu Jing, of course, would not be polite. He brought Xu Wei directly below to seek justice. Unfortunately, the Ye family was not sure whether he would admit it. In addition, they had already quarreled in the court and fought for power and profit. He framed the Xu family and wanted to take the opportunity to cause trouble.

The man who came with him even conspired with the head of the family several times, but unfortunately he never saw him afterwards and didn't know where he went.

Therefore, the Ye family and the Xu family officially broke up and began to fight in a grand manner. Except for the usual Lan family, most of the families began to form teams more or less.

However, in the current situation, the Xu family is still at a disadvantage, because compared to the Xu family, the Ye family is more respected by the higher-ups, but that's all.

Both families have been standing for thousands of years, and with their own expansion, many families have supported the Xu family. How could they be overthrown all at once and remain in a stalemate like this?

In Fengcheng, they also knew about the turmoil in other countries, but they didn't know the specific details at all. Because they had the protection of the snow mountain, the Ye family kept the news hidden from the outside world. Even if others informed them, they would only say that everything was safe. He deceived the Holy One all his life.

Who made the vast majority of the generals on their side, which made the Xu family very anxious, and all external intelligence began to blur, and it seemed that someone was obstructing their people.

Gu Zheng nodded while listening, but he was thinking in his heart that the demon tribe seemed to have exerted its strength, because in the near future, if nothing unexpected happened, armies from dozens of countries would be able to come over.

They all gathered near Fengcheng, and he also knew the plan of the monster clan. So there must be a monster clan lurking in the palace. Are all the local immortals fools? He actually let the other party play with this.

As he sees it, everything is heading towards the worst-case scenario again, but if the aloof emperor can speak, he will at least have the strength to fight, because at this time he can be said to have placed his trust in a mysterious person. It shares human consciousness, and the export method is similar.

This is why the demon clan is trying to prevent him from knowing what's going on outside. Once he wakes up, all his previous efforts are likely to be wasted.

However, the demon clan has been setting it up for such a long time, how can it be said that it has been seen through by others? Even now, Xu Jing thinks that there is a treasonous one and wants to seek power and position.

Because there is an army in the hands of the royal family with only a thousand men, but all of them are the elite of the elite. They are not afraid of death and are invulnerable. As long as they master this army and add to the army in their hands, the armies outside are definitely not Their opponents might still have their people outside.

After hearing the end, Gu Zheng couldn't help but give Xu Fei some credit. The other party almost solved many of his problems, and through his narration, he said that he had learned a lot about the situation.

"Um, where is the station of the snow mountain?" Gu Zheng asked quickly when he saw him finally finish speaking.

"It's in the North District, because it's relatively clean there." Xu Fei said crisply, "But if you want to find him, I suggest you ask for an identity card, because you just came here, and the situation is unclear now, so don't They got caught and the management became even stricter.”

Xu Fei could tell that Gu Zheng seemed to have something to find him.

"Yes." Gu Zheng nodded silently, indicating that he understood.

The banquet ended quickly at the speed of everyone. During the banquet, except for Xu Fei and the ladies who asked Gu Zheng to say a few words, everyone ignored Gu Zheng, as if Gu Zheng did not exist, but His eyes occasionally glanced over to Shuang'er, giving the impression that he was still looking at Gu Zheng.

Gu Zheng was even more happy. Anyway, apart from Shuang'er who was a little timid and shy, no one else wanted to bully her, and probably no one had that ability.

Taking the two little guys, who were still full of food, they leisurely returned to their own courtyard. After letting the two little guys relax for a while, they began to point out some of each other's shortcomings.

The day passed quickly. At night, the night was getting darker. Gu Zheng was lying in the bedroom pretending to be asleep and thinking about something. Suddenly his ears twitched and his closed eyes suddenly opened.

Outside the door of the independent courtyard, a figure was walking back and forth at the door, with a face full of struggle. Sometimes he stopped and raised his hand to knock on the door of the courtyard, but as soon as he stretched out his hand, he immediately retracted, as if hesitating. What are you wearing?

"Hey." The figure sighed, and when he turned around and was about to leave, the door behind him suddenly creaked, scaring him and seeing a figure coming out.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong? You've been wandering outside for so long."

With the help of the dim moonlight, he found that it was Gu Zheng who was talking to him, and his somewhat nervous heart relaxed a little.

"I asked a guard before, he and my father are very good friends." The figure said frankly.

"Well, Xu Fei, do you have anything to do?" Gu Zheng said with interest. He appeared nearby as soon as it got dark, and walked around the door after it was completely dark. It was obvious that he wanted to tell him something, or to ask for help.

"I showed him the pearl you gave me, and he was shocked." Xu Fei did not answer directly, but said solemnly, "He told me that kind of thing is simply a life-saving thing, even he can't make it, but you gave us so much, and you don't care at all."

Gu Zheng did not speak, still looking at him with that expression.

"I wonder if you can help me kill Ye Si if you can." Xu Fei took a deep breath, then looked straight at Gu Zheng and said.

"Why? Why should I help you kill someone who has nothing to do with you?" Gu Zheng put down his arms around his shoulders, took a step forward, and the courtyard door behind him closed quietly again.

Ye Si was the one who was sieged that day

"I believe everything Xu Wei said, including what he said about the Ye family being in collusion with the demon clan, but most people don't believe it at all, because Fengcheng itself has its own formation hidden in it, and no demon can sneak in, but I believe they are not lying, but I have no evidence to prove it, and I think you must be here for that man Zhao Man." Xu Fei said so much in one breath, and his body trembled a little because of excitement.

"Oh, why do you think so?"

"Because I saw an ornament hanging on Miss Shuang'er's waist, it is exactly the same as the spiritual ornament on Zhao Man, so I am sure that you all come from the same place." Xu Fei hesitated, but still said his guess.

After hearing this, Gu Zheng weighed it in his mind. If a mortal was killed for no reason, theoretically, it would have no effect on Gu Zheng. Moreover, the other party colluded with the demon clan and had a reason to die.

But things cannot be viewed in this way. If Gu Zheng had not become an immortal, then there would be no worries. However, if he was killed deliberately because of his promise, it would also bring a little trouble to Gu Zheng.

Gu Zheng thought so, but his face did not show any expression. Instead, he walked back and forth a few steps, weighed the severity of it, stared at Xu Fei's eyes, and then said to him.

"Xu Fei, I can't agree to this request." Gu Zheng said, and when he saw the other party's face darkened, he continued, "You don't know that my situation is complicated, but if there is a chance, although I won't take action directly, I will find an opportunity to see if I can push the other party. I can only agree to do this."

Xu Fei's face immediately became much better. He and the other party had no relatives. Even if he brought the Xu family as a relative, the other party would not agree to his rude request.

You must know that your family and the other party are now incompatible, and they will not help you at this time.

"This is a pass. Of course, it is in the name of another family. At least it can save you some trouble." Xu Fei took out a card-like thing from his sleeve and handed it over.

It had Gu Zheng's name and the signature of another family.

I didn't expect the other party to be so fast and actually prepare all this for me in advance.

"Mr. Gu, there is no need to force this matter. Anyway, thank you very much for agreeing to me." Xu Fei bowed to Gu Zheng and thanked him.

He walked back after saying that. "By the way, I have also inquired about Zhao Man's news. After all, he is also my good friend. I know that the last time he appeared outside the palace, he seemed to have evaporated from the world, and there was no news of him."

Just after taking two steps, Xu Fei seemed to think of something, stopped again, and said to Gu Zheng.

Without waiting for Gu Zheng to answer, he hurriedly left here again and disappeared into the night.

Early the next morning, Gu Zheng woke up from a deep sleep. He hadn't slept so comfortably for a long time. At this time, there were sounds of "hehe haha" outside. Ah Shuai and the others had already gotten up and were training themselves strictly according to Gu Zheng's requirements.

As soon as he went out, he saw Shuang'er was also there, but she was watching them exercise. When she saw Gu Zheng coming out, she immediately stretched her arms in a very formal manner, pretending to be training.

Gu Zheng smiled and shook his head, ignored them, and simply informed them, and went out directly.

He had already told them before that if they had something to do, they could do it, and no one would restrict their freedom. As long as they promised to come back, they could no longer follow him.

He planned to take a closer look at the terrain of the Xu family first. As long as it was for the safety of Shuang'er and the others, it wouldn't take much time anyway, and then go to Fengcheng to see if there were any differences.

But as soon as he went out, he found Xu Wei who was waiting outside. When he saw Gu Zheng coming out, he immediately stood up straight, leaning against the edge. Before Gu Zheng asked, he spoke smartly.

"Mr. Gu, I am here on the master's orders to serve as the young master's personal servant for the time being. If you need me to run errands, just tell me. Of course, if you need me to disappear, just tell me."

Xu Wei's tone was a little excited, as if it was his great honor to serve Gu Zheng.

Because his position in the eyes of the master was very special, if he could curry favor with him and please the master, then his position could be upgraded.

Although he was the master's confidant, it was just a self-proclaimed title. It was just a matter of running errands for him in the daily life of the mansion. It seemed glorious, but his position was not stable at all. He knew this.
