Chapter 1074: The Controversy of the Future Patriarch

Lin Mengjia's series of questions made it clear that she wanted to change the subject.

Both Tang Feng and Zi Xuan saw through her thoughts, and showed meaningful smiles at the same time, but Shangguan and Ji Ning, who were the parties involved, didn't notice anything, they looked at Zi Xuan together, waiting for her answer.

The observation skills of these two people can't be said to be insensitive, but their emotional intelligence is too low, and they don't realize Lin Mengjia's gossip at all.

Zixuan suppressed the smile on her face, cleared her throat, and then continued: "Gu Qiuying has six children, three sons, and three daughters. At the beginning, her man was a married man, so these children are all random. Her surname is Gu. Among her children, the eldest son is very mediocre and has no self-motivation. The business has also lost the capital of competition, and the future head of the Gu family is among her second son, youngest son and youngest daughter."

Hearing Zixuan's introduction, Lin Mengjia couldn't help but frowned slightly, and said, "This Gu family is really troubled. Before, I thought Qinghua's family was already extremely chaotic. Compared with the Gu family, it seems that it is nothing more than mediocre."

Zixuan smiled and said: "The folk custom in the Northwest is that many children and grandchildren are blessed, so in each family, there are many children, the same line and collaterals, a large family has hundreds of people, or even more. , During the period, fish and dragons mixed together, and there would be various reasons, so it is not surprising."

Ji Ning nodded, and said: "That's true. These ancient families are all looking for people to prosper. The more people there are, the more powerful they will be. No matter what aspect it is, it is more reliable to unite with relatives than to rely on the strength of outsiders."

Hearing what Ji Ning said, Lin Mengjia had a helpless smile on his face.

Think about myself and Kong Qinghua, both were cheated by their relatives.

Fortunately, this Lin family is not as good as the Kong family, otherwise, I can't tell what situation I will face at this moment.

Seeing that the tea on the table had bottomed out, Shangguan got up, brewed another pot, put it on the coffee table, and asked Zixuan, "What do these things have to do with Xue Panpan?"

Zixuan poured a cup of tea, but couldn't drink it because of the heat, she just held the teacup in her hands, blowing slightly, and said: "The second son of the Gu family, Gu Xingxue, and the youngest daughter, Gu Huiyi, put most of their energy into it. In terms of business, the achievements in practice are only mediocre. The two of them are already over half a hundred years old, and both of them have stopped at the sixth stage of the day after tomorrow. They have not made breakthroughs for more than ten years. Gu Qiuying and most of the clan members know that they probably stopped here Well, her youngest son, Gu Chengxue, is exceptionally gifted in martial arts, and just last year, he has already broken through the Acquired Eighth Level, and there is a great tendency to improve to a higher level."

Shangguan nodded slowly, and said: "According to his age, the acquired eightfold is already considered quite remarkable. In this way, the future Patriarch of the Gu family must be him?"

"That's not necessarily the case," Ji Ning shook his head, and said thoughtfully, "This ancient family is no different from before, and it doesn't rely on force to gain the upper hand. If this Gu Chengxue is only obsessed with cultivation and ignores the family The status of business in this family is not necessarily higher than the other two."

"That's right," Zixuan nodded approvingly, "Now the Gu family can be regarded as a three-point situation, and although Gu Chengxue has the upper hand in the family tradition, secretly, Gu Xingxue and Gu Huiyi Forming an alliance, relying on his own strength, it will be difficult to shake these two."

Listening to what Zixuan said, Tang Feng already understood the situation of the Gu family and the relationship with Xue Panpan at this time, so he couldn't help showing a knowing smile.

Seeing it, Lin Mengjia asked him, "What did you think of?"

Zixuan also stopped talking and looked towards him.

Tang Feng smiled and said: "With his own ability, Gu Chengxue is the best candidate for the future head of the family, but the brothers and sisters who control the family's financial strength have become the biggest obstacle to his superiority. In order to clear this obstacle on the way forward, he needs An ally who can help him financially, this ally can no longer be found within the family, because of the intricate relationship between these three families, the other two families have become his best choice, if he If you happen to have a son of the right age, then you can climb up to the unmarried future female head of the Xue family, and the Xue family and the Gu family are the same family, and the Xue family will not have any objection to this."

Zixuan gave Tang Feng a thumbs-up, and praised, "It's really not bad at all, as if you saw it with your own eyes."

Lin Mengjia looked at Tang Feng with a smile on his lips.

In fact, what Tang Feng could think of, she could also think of.

Just hearing Tang Feng say it and being praised by Zi Xuan, she felt happy in her heart.

Shangguan grew up in the sect, and the environment is relatively simple. It is difficult to understand the affairs of this big family, so he said curiously: "Since Gu Chengxue is so powerful, he can completely defeat the other two with his own strength. When he becomes the head of the family, everything in the whole family belongs to him, so why make such trouble?"

Ji Ning shook his head lightly, and explained to her: "Your method was acceptable decades ago, but it is different now. Private fighting is against the law. Moreover, we are a family, so we should do it seriously. If Gu Chengxue wants to use such methods, those elders will not necessarily be the head of the family. Come out to uphold justice, relying on his own strength, he is powerless to resist."

While speaking, Ji Ning looked at Zixuan again, a little curious, and asked her: "Does the Gu family have a martial artist in the innate realm?"

Zixuan nodded.

Ji Ning couldn't help but took a deep breath, and his expression became a little serious.

Although Tang Feng didn't pay much attention to this martial artist in the Xiantian realm, even Zi Xuan didn't pay much attention to him, but in his opinion, he was quite outstanding.

Just as he expected, in such a huge ancient family, there really are such powerful elders.

Hearing that the Gu family has a martial artist in the innate realm, Shangguan was also slightly surprised.

Lin Mengjia was not interested in this, and asked Zixuan quickly: "Presumably Gu Chengxue has a son who is about the same age as Xue Panpan, and he proposed marriage to Xue's family?"
