The planned itinerary was interrupted because of Long Kui's sudden invitation. Huangfu Jue was very dissatisfied with this. However, because Murong agreed to the invitation, he could only suppress this dissatisfaction.
Soon, the two came to Long Kui's room.
Although Long Kui's body has not fully recovered, it looks much better than before. At least he can get out of bed now and entertain them.
"This is—" Looking at Huangfu Jue who had been walking in with Murong's face, Long Kui's eyes flashed with shock.
Because, with his strength, he couldn't see through the opponent's cultivation at all. Then there are only two possibilities. One is that the other party is simply a waste who has no way to cultivate, and the other is that the other party's cultivation is far higher than him, and it is beyond his reach. Such a man who exudes an intimidating aura doesn't look like a waste no matter what, so the first possibility is impossible. That leaves only the second possibility.
When he thought of the second possibility, he couldn't calm down in any way. He is now in the middle of the Mahayana period. If the man in front of him has a higher cultivation than him, what kind of cultivation is he
"This is Huangfu Jue, my friend." Murong said with a smile, "This time he came with me."
Before, Long Kui had just woken up and his spirit had not fully recovered, and so many things happened later, so at that time, he didn't notice the existence of Huangfu Jue at all. To be honest, this should be their first. This is the first time we meet officially.
"So it is." Long Kui looked at Huangfu Jue, nodded, then looked at Murong and said, "This friend of yours is really not easy!"
Although Murong said that he was a friend, he was not too old, so he naturally saw the interaction between the two. It was definitely not a simple word that could be summed up as a friend.
However, seeing such a situation, he really envied the old man of the Chen family. Not only did he find such a gifted and intelligent granddaughter, but also such a powerful and profound grandson-in-law. How could he not have such a good life! Instead, they have to face one mess after another.
After chatting for a while, Murong Qingyan and Huangfu Jue also sat down.
Murong looked at Long Kui, who was sitting on the main seat, and said with a smile, "Grandpa Long, you called me over today, is there something wrong?"
Long Kui has just been detoxified, and he has slept for such a long time, even with such a deep cultivation base, he can't stand it! At this time, the best thing he should do is to take a good rest. However, at this time, she was called over, there must be something wrong.
"Hehe, Qingyan, you are really smart girl!" Long Kui couldn't help but sighed, "Indeed, I called you over today, I have something very important, and I want to ask you about it. of."
After hearing Long Kui's words, the expression on Murong's face did not change in any way, as if she had already expected it, "If Grandpa Long wants to know anything, just ask directly. I must know everything and say everything. Exhausted."
"That's good." Long Kui nodded, and then the aura on his body changed dramatically, and the whole person seemed to be extraordinarily majestic, even with bursts of pressure, "Qianyan, I learned from Liuju, The poison in my body was triggered at the time of the study, wasn't it? Is it possible that I was already poisoned by something before, and it happened to happen in the study? "
When he heard such a thing, his first feeling was that he couldn't believe it. Because at that time, in the study, it was just him and his three sons. He didn't want to believe that his son would harm him like this.
"Impossible." Murong Qingyan said affirmatively, "I asked Uncle Long before. Before they went to the study, you had been in the study for a while. , as long as it is triggered, it will happen very quickly. So it cannot be triggered before you enter the study."
In other things, she may still judge wrong, but when it comes to medicine pills and poisons, she can be sure that she will not judge wrong. Even if such a fact is really cruel, it is a fact and will never be changed by human will.
After hearing Murong's affirmation, Long Kui fell into silence for a while. Perhaps, even after hearing the affirmation of Murong's face, he still couldn't believe such a fact! He never thought that one day, his own children would poison him. And it's still such a domineering poison, it's just killing him!
Long Kui didn't say anything, and Murong didn't rush her. She knew that such a fact was hard to accept. However, to be the head of the Long family, she believes that Long Kui's ability to accept will not be so weak.
However, at this time, she felt that she still had to give Long Kui some time to digest this fact.
After a long time, Long Kui sighed and finally spoke again, "Qianyan, who do you think did this time?"
After hearing Long Kui's question, Murong Qingyan was really stunned, "Grandpa Long, what do you mean?"
She never thought that Long Kui would ask her such a question. This matter is an internal matter of the Long family. She is an outsider, so how can she intervene
"Girl, stop pretending here." Long Kui smiled bitterly, "The bystanders are clear, the authorities are obsessed. I think the reason why you have said so much to Liuju and Li Yuan, it means that in your heart , In fact, it has already been determined!"
He is not a fool, on the contrary, he sees things very clearly. After waking up, he had already investigated the matter, and Liu Ju and Li Yuan also told him all the speculations that Murong Qingyan had once had. From those speculations, he could see that Murong Qingyan seemed to see things very clearly. The biggest possibility is that she actually already knows who is behind the scenes.
"Grandpa Long, you're very smart!" After Murong turned her face back to her senses, she didn't hide anything, but nodded happily, "Yes, I do have a little guess in my heart. However, I can't guarantee it, that's the final verdict."
When these things happened, she did see some problems, and she also had some vague guesses in her heart. However, all of this is just speculation, and there is absolutely no real evidence. Moreover, she is not sure whether this is the truth or not.
"Then tell me your guesses!" Long Kui said with a smile, "I think, after listening to your opinion, maybe I will have a different idea!"
"Grandpa Long, I am afraid that you will have preconceived ideas after listening to my words." Murong smiled helplessly, "Also, this matter, in the final analysis, is still an internal matter of your Long family, I am an outsider. It’s really hard to make irresponsible remarks.”
To put it bluntly, she really shouldn't interfere in this matter, it's an internal matter of the Long family. It is said that family ugliness should not be publicized. This is already regarded as the family ugliness of the Long family, and she should not be involved in it.
"On the basis of my hundreds of years of friendship with old man Chen, if you tell the truth, there is nothing wrong with it." Long Kui waved his hand and said indifferently, "Besides, you saved my life. , you and Li Yuan are good sisters again, it's right for you to express your opinion on this matter."
Even after hearing such words, Murong Qingyan still did not express her opinion. After a long time, under the insistence of Long Kui's firm eyes, Murong Qingyan sighed, "Grandpa Long, you really want to get rid of me Do you hear those guesses in your mouth?"
"That's right." Long Kui nodded affirmatively, "If it were me, I would definitely have some emotions of my own, but you are the one who sees it the most clearly and thoroughly."
"That's good." Murong looked at Long Kui and said directly, "Since you want to know, there is no need for me to hide it. Although I don't know who did this thing, I think that this The matter is related to the third room."
"Three rooms?" After hearing Murong's words, a wry smile appeared on Long Kui's face, "I thought you would say second room!"
He also knew about the conflict between Murong Qingyan and the second room.
"Grandpa Long, I don't think you're surprised at all!" Murong shrugged and said with a smile, "That means it's actually in your heart, and you have your own guess!"
"Yes, it seems that the people in the second room of the Long family are indeed very arrogant and questionable. Even Long Liyun wants to drug you. But they don't have the courage to do so, and, most importantly— "
When he said this, a sharp light flashed in Murong's face, "They can't get poison like soul refining at all."
"Hey, it seems that I really failed as a human being!" Long Kui's face showed a trace of bitterness, "Even my own children would do this kind of poison to me."
"Grandpa Long, why are you hurting spring and autumn here?" Murong raised her eyebrows and said, "Which big family doesn't have a few moths in it! Besides, this time, it's not so much a matter of harmony. The third room is related, it is better to say it is related to the Song family. In this incident, what role the Song family played is still unknown!"
"Even if the Song family is determined, if no one cooperates, it will be very difficult, isn't it?" Long Kui said helplessly, "Actually, when I heard Liu Ju talk about it, I already remembered that that day in the study. When discussing things, I smelled Liu Qi's body, and there seemed to be a faint fragrance, which was never seen before."
After hearing what Liuju said, he began to doubt it. It's just that he still doesn't want to believe such a fact, so he wants to get an accurate answer from Murong Qingyan. However, now that he knew the answer, his mood was very complicated.
"I have no way of determining whether that scent is the trigger for the toxicity in your body." Murong said lightly, "However, I think that finding out the truth should not be a problem for Grandpa Long. It's difficult, just to see if you really want to know the truth."
"You girl, you can see clearly." Long Kui sighed, "It is indeed a blessing for the Chen family to have a younger generation like you. Old man Chen has a successor!"
Although Murong was not named Chen, even an outsider would be jealous of such a talent. Chen old man should not give up such a candidate for heir!
"Grandpa Long, I think you misunderstood." Murong smiled and shook his head, "I will not inherit the Chen family."
She understood what Long Kui meant. Therefore, some things, it is better to make it clear, it is impossible for her to inherit the Chen family in the future. Moreover, her future path will not be limited to this continent, and she still has a long way to go.
"But, didn't you say that you can represent the Chen family?" Long Kui was a little surprised after hearing what Murong said.
He didn't expect that Murong Qingyan would deny such speculation so straightforwardly. When he heard that Murong Qingyan once said that she could fully represent the Chen family, he felt that maybe Murong Qingyan was the heir chosen by old man Chen. But unexpectedly, it turned out not to be the case.
"Grandpa Long, I can represent the Chen family, but I will not inherit the Chen family." Murong said with a smile, "The heir of the Chen family has not been elected, but it will definitely not be me."
Hearing the affirmative tone in Murong's Yanyan's words, Long Kui was a little strange. However, he also knew that there were some things that an outsider could not interfere with.
"It seems that I was wrong." Long Kui said with a smile, "I really thank you for coming to answer my questions today, I hope your time is not wasted."
"How could it be?" Murong nodded, "It's my honor to be able to solve the puzzle for Grandpa Long. I think Grandpa Long can handle the next thing, so I don't need to say anything here."
"This time, there should be a result soon." Long Kui's eyes flashed a sharp light, "Who did it, it will soon be clear."
Seeing Long Kui's appearance, Murong Qingyan knew in his heart that this old man was really ruthless.
No matter who is behind the scenes this time, Long Kui will not forgive him lightly. Even if that person is his son, he will not be soft-hearted. As expected of such a big family, the killing was decisive.
After saying goodbye to Long Kui, Murong Qingyan and Huangfu Jue walked towards the door. Originally, they were planning to go out. Although they were interrupted, it did not dampen their interest at all.
However, soon, Murong Qingyan felt that it was really not appropriate to go out today! First, I was disturbed when I went out, and now I met someone I didn't want to see at all.
That's right, just in the corridor, Murong met someone she didn't want to see at all. This person was none other than Long Liyu.
Seeing this white lotus flower that he usually doesn't like to see, Murong's face is not very good.
"Young Master Huangfu, Miss Murong." Long Liyu was also stunned for a moment, and seemed surprised to see these two.
However, Murong Qingyan could see that this was not a chance encounter, but a design encounter. Obviously, Long Liyu was waiting for them here.
"Miss Long Er." Although she knew that this was designed by Long Liyu, Murong still had a polite smile on her face, "I didn't expect to meet you here, it's really a coincidence!"
"Yeah!" Long Liyu nodded with a smile, looking gentle and graceful, "Speaking of which, Miss Murong saved my grandfather, I haven't even thanked you enough!"
"Miss Long, you don't have to be so polite." Murong said with a smile on her face, "The reason why I am able to rescue the Long family is only because of Li Yuan's request. I don't deserve a word of thanks from the second lady."
After hearing Murong's words, Long Liyu was stunned for a moment, but she recovered quickly, as if nothing had happened, "Anyway, thank you for your kindness to our Long family. ."
Although there was no change in the expression on her face, Long Liyu felt a little bit more disgust towards Murong's appearance in her heart at this time. From her point of view, Murong Qingyan was simply slapping her face naked. It was because of Long Liyuan's request that she treated her grandfather. Isn't that what Murong Qingyan sees, only Long Liyuan is the eldest Miss of the Long family
"Miss Long Er, I have already received your thanks," Murong nodded and continued, "However, we still have things to do now, so we will leave first."
After speaking, Murong Qingyan and Huangfu Jue planned to leave.
"Miss Murong," Long Liyu took a step forward as they were about to leave, and continued, "I see where the two of you are going, it seems to be the direction of the gate. Are you two going out?"
"That's right." Murong Qingyan felt that there was nothing to hide, "We're going to go out for a walk." So don't stop us here, let's be sensible and give way!
Although the last sentence was not spoken, the expression on Murong's face showed everything. Obviously, Long Liyu's behavior at this time was really unpopular.
However, Long Liyu didn't seem to notice anything, after hearing Murong's words, her face immediately showed a look of excitement, "If that's the case, why don't I take you for a walk! In any case, this is the territory of the Long family, and I should also show the friendship of the landlord!"
After hearing Long Liyu's words, Murong smiled and shook her head, "You don't need to bother Second Miss, we can just go by ourselves. We will be very embarrassed to waste your time."
"How could it be?" Long Liyu smiled and shook her head, "You are my grandfather's savior, I should have thanked you well. Now I'm just showing you guys around, it's a waste of time. Woolen cloth!"
"I really don't need it." Murong raised his eyebrows and frowned, "We'll just go by ourselves."
"This city is quite big, let me take you there!" Long Liyu seemed to be completely incomprehensible to Murong Qingyan's refusal, "You don't have to be polite."
Seeing Long Liyu as if she was going to go with her, the smile on Murong's face disappeared, "Miss Long Er, I have already said it, you really don't need to take us there. We want the two of you to be together. Go for a walk, it's not that we're afraid of wasting your time, it's that we don't want to be disturbed."
Such straightforward words made Long Liyu's face turn blue and white. She did not expect that Murong Qingyan would speak so straightforwardly. Especially since this is the Long family, she originally thought that even if Murong Qingyan didn't want to, she would not tear her face off. Unexpectedly, Murong Qingyan was so completely ignorant of her face, so she directly said that she was an eyesore.
"Then I won't bother you." Long Liyu's face looked a little ugly, and even the original smile on her face became reluctant, "You guys have fun."
After speaking, Long Liyu turned around and left here. She felt that if she continued to stay here, she would definitely feel more embarrassed.
Seeing that Long Liyu had finally left, Murong stretched out her hand, took Huangfu Jue's arm, and said with a smile, "Jue, let's go now!"
"Okay." When Huangfu Jue looked at Murong, there was endless tenderness in his eyes.
Along the way, the two of them did not encounter any unpleasant people. Soon, the two came to the city.
Seeing the bustling scene in the city, Murong Qingyan was a little emotional, "It's been so long since I came here, and I still have time to come here and have a good stroll."
"If you like, we can go shopping here at any time." Looking at Murong's smiling face, Huangfu Jue said, "As long as you are happy."
"It's more refreshing to come here once in a while! If you come here often, you won't feel like this now." Murong smiled and shook his head, "So, we don't think about anything today, just have a good time here. Come on! We'll go back after this time with the Long family."
Huangfu Jue has always indulged Murong Qingyan, letting Murong Qingyan drag him around. Wherever Murong Qingyan wanted to go, he just accompanied him silently, without any opinion.
Many people next to him saw such a scene, and they were all envious and jealous of Murong Qingyan. Such an excellent man still has to be obedient to the woman he likes, how can he not be jealous!
