In the elders' hall, the modern head of the Lu family, Lu Zhengtan, was summoning a group of elders from outside the hall to listen to reports on their work during this period.
Lu Zhengtan has been out for a long time. As the head of the family, it is natural for him to have an understanding of the situation of the Lu family during this period.
The Lu family has a great business, and the entire eastern part of Zhongzhou is the Lu family's sphere of influence. Many mineral veins, treasure lands, and medicinal fields are occupied by the Lu family. The Lu family's closure of the city only means that the family's children are not allowed to leave, but it does not mean that they have given up their outside interests.
At this moment, an internal affairs deacon suddenly walked in and wanted to whisper a few words in Lu Zhengtan's ear. Lu Zhengtan waved his hand and said, "If you say anything in public, it's all your own family members. There's nothing to hide."
Lu Zhengtan actually doesn't look old. He has a rosy face and a handsome appearance, but his hair is a little gray. He has fierce eyes, a resolute face, and his domineering attitude is revealed in his movements. He also has an inexplicable aura about him that makes people feel depressed and dare not look directly at him.
Lu Zhengtan had said this, and the deacon could only grit his teeth and said: "Young Master Li left just now, saying... he was sleepy, so he should go back and rest first, and then come visit the head of the family again."
"Wow!"
The deacon's words caused a stir in the hall. There were many people standing inside at this moment, except for the great elder who was in seclusion, all the other elders were there. Lu Suan and Lu Ni stood behind Lu Fenghuo. There were more than a dozen other elders in the outer hall, plus twenty or thirty other important deacons.
Lu Zhengtan wanted to summon Lu Li, but Lu Li actually dared to leave directly? This is contempt for the head of the family. If everyone is like this, Lu Zhengtan, the head of the family, doesn’t have to do anything. If you can’t order the Lu family members, how can you lead the family
"Asshole~"
Lu Feng was angry. Lu Zhengtan was his father. Disrespecting Lu Zhengtan made him more angry than a slap in the face. He stood up abruptly and said, "Come here, take Lu Li down and put him in jail directly. Wait for punishment."
The Supreme Elder put pressure on the matter last time, so Lu Fenghuo was full of anger and had nowhere to vent. Now that Lu Zhengtan is back, Lu Li still dares to be so arrogant? If they don't teach him a lesson, they won't be able to control the Lu family in the future.
The Eighth Elder and the Fourth Elder looked at each other with slightly bitter expressions on their faces. Wouldn't Lu Li feel uncomfortable if he didn't cause trouble? Lu Zhengtan had just returned, and Lu Li was at gunpoint...
A group of sergeants rushed in from outside. After hearing Lu Fenghuo's words, they all looked towards Lu Zhengtan. Lu Zhengtan was not angry at all. He smiled and stroked his beard and said, "It's just a child. What are you yelling at, Fenghuo? I've heard some things about Lu Li. He just returned to the family. If he doesn't understand etiquette, he can understand it. Just teach him slowly later." "
"Housekeeper Shengming!"
The eighth elder and the fourth elder stood up quickly, cupped their hands and shouted. The two of them didn't know what to do, but since Lu Zhengtan said this, they were naturally happy.
Some of the elders from the outer hall nodded slightly, Lu Zhengtan was so generous, this is what a family head should look like. After all, he is the son of Emperor Lu, and the king of the Lu family is not dead yet.
"snort!"
Lu Fenghuo sneered: "Lu Li can't produce a single piece of evidence, and he hasn't awakened the Vajra bloodline. We haven't identified him as the son of the Human Emperor yet. Now he's so arrogant. If his identity is identified, why can't he fly?"
Lu Zhengtan waved his hand and said, "Didn't Fifth Uncle say that? It has been confirmed that he is a descendant of the Lu family. Regardless of whether he is the son of the Human Emperor or not, he can severely injure Qiu Wenze with the Soul Pond Realm. I am afraid that this talent does not need to be used by the Human Emperor. . It is normal for a genius to be arrogant, have a wild temper, and not understand the rules. These are not problems. There are many things going on recently. I will meet him in person later and give him some guidance. It will be a good thing for the family if he can become a talented person."
"yes!"
Lu Zhengtan said this, how dare Lu Fenghuo continue to make trouble? Several elders looked at each other and heard the implication. The elders in the outer hall were not fools, and they all understood the meaning.
Lu Li is a descendant of the Lu family, there is no doubt about it! Lu Li was extremely talented, that was for sure.
But Lu Zhengtan still has doubts about whether he is the son of Lu Renhuang.
Lu Zhengtan also said that Lu Li didn't understand the rules and turned around to teach him. This was also a clear signal that he didn't like Lu Li. If any elder got close to Lu Li, he would definitely not like him either.
There is actually not much difference between the head of a family and the king of a country, especially a family like the Lu family, the overlord of the eastern part of Zhongzhou.
Lu Zhengyang used to be the king of the clan, that is, the king of the east. Now Lu Zhengtan has replaced him. He is silently telling everyone, don't stand on the wrong side, otherwise... he will be very unhappy.
"The wild man of the mountains!"
Lu Suan softly uttered four words. He and Lu Yi had inherited Lu Fenghuo's looks. They were handsome and distinguished. The two of them didn't have many expressions. They stood calmly behind Lu Fenghuo from beginning to end. It wasn't until Lu Zhengtan finished speaking that the two of them looked at each other, with a cold look on their lips.
Lu Li and Lu Lin's guesses were both correct, and Lu Suan and Lu Xi didn't like Lu Li. It's not that the two brothers are not open-minded enough, or even... The reason why Lu Fenghuo and Lu Liantian targeted Lu Li like this is not because of their poor moral character.
Everything is a benefit!
Lu Li's return was not in the interest of their lineage. They didn't believe that Lu Li was the son of Lu Renhuang, but they actually believed it. Moreover, they also suspected that Lu Li was sent back by Lu Renhuang to fight in front. Otherwise, how could Lu Li dare to be so bold
I didn’t hold power before and didn’t know the benefits of power.
After taking power, Lu Fenghuo and the others all tasted the benefits. All the family's resources belong to them. The three brothers Lu Fenghuo, as well as Lu Suan and Lu Yu, have whatever resources they want, and they have whatever treasures they want.
Lu Suan and Lu Ni followed him out this time. The families outside received him as the eldest grandson of the emperor of the Lu family. Countless ladies from big families wanted to recommend themselves to the two brothers.
Including Lu Zhengtan, who had been standing behind Lu Zhengyang before. Everyone surrounded Lu Zhengyang, but no one glanced at him. Although his strength is not much weaker than Lu Zhengyang, the clan king is the clan king, and he represents not himself, but the entire Lu family!
so…
These contradictions are actually irreconcilable, and Lu Zhengtan's meaning today is very obvious. He was deliberately trying to beat Lu Li, win people's hearts at the same time, intimidate everyone, and tell all the elders that he, Lu Zhengtan, was in charge at the moment, and if he took the wrong side, he would bear the consequences.
The Eighth Elder and the Fourth Elder looked at each other with bitterness in their eyes. If they continued to get close to Lu Li, they might be suppressed by Lu Zhengtan, and they might lose their position as elders in the future.
"Oh, if the clan king could wake up, everything could change, but it's a pity..."
The eighth elder sighed slightly in his heart. In the past ten years, the structure of the Lu family has quietly changed, and the Lu family has changed dynasties.
Unless Lu Zhengyang wakes up, nothing can be changed even if Lu Renhuang comes back, let alone Lu Li.
Yes!
The rumors that Lu Feixue heard were not wrong. Lu Zhengyang did go to the Southern Witch Land and was seriously injured. He was poisoned by a very terrifying voodoo poison.
He has been sleeping for a full ten years. Countless elders of the Lu family, including the eighth elder and the fourth elder, are actually desperate in their hearts.
The Lu family thought of countless ways and used countless materials and treasures, but to no avail. With Lu Zhengyang's strength, if he couldn't wake up in ten years, then he might not be able to wake up in this lifetime...
