Chapter 443: Seizure of the Throne
Rong family, in a huge courtyard, Rong Jielin and others gathered together.
Although Rong Jielin himself is not one of the six innate talents of the family, at this time, his reputation in the family is no longer below his brother Rong Jiesen, even compared to the previous head of the family Rong Jieling.
All this is because he has a good grandson.
In fact, this grandson did not grow up at home since he was a child, but grew up with his most useless third son outside the estate.
But it was this child who allowed him to ascend to the sky in one step and have unparalleled prestige in the family.
Today happened to be the 80th birthday of his old man, and although the dinner had not yet begun, the guests had already arrived.
Five of the six great innate members of the family actually came in one go, except for Rong Jay, who couldn't come out of retreat, the rest of them all came to congratulate him in person. In addition, even the Peng family and the Lin family also sent people here. A year ago, he had never imagined that he would have such a beautiful day.
"Daddy, I wish you happiness like the East China Sea and longevity than Nanshan. The three brothers, Rong Yihe, Rong Yiying and Rong Yiyang, raised their glasses and shouted at the same time.
Rong Jielin laughed loudly and said continuously: "Good, good, good." ”
He raised the glass in front of him and drank it down.
At this time, it was naturally him who was sitting in the middle of the banquet, but it was not the head of the family who was sitting next to him, but the five congenital elders in the family and the two congenital powerhouses from the Peng family and the Lin family.
Seeing Rong Jielin drink this cup boldly, the old man of the Lin family said with a smile: "Brother Jielin, not only do you have a good grandson, but even these three are a generation of heroes." Hehe, I'll toast you. ”
This person is a congenital powerhouse who has been famous for many years, and he is also one of the masters of the Lin family who is known as the elder of the Rong family.
If it was before Rong Kaixuan had not yet risen, with this person's arrogant nature, it would be impossible to be polite with Rong Jielin, who had not yet advanced to the innate level. But at the moment. He was polite and tight, and completely regarded Rong Jielin as an equal master, and even a little flattering.
Rong Jielin hurriedly held a cup and said a few polite words, of course he understood that this person was not giving himself face, but everything was for the sake of the grandson who had not yet returned home.
Suddenly, one walked into the house quickly and said in a low voice, "Grandpa, the elders of the Jay clan have come to visit." ”
The whole room was suddenly stunned, and everyone looked at each other. There was a strange look on their faces.
Rong Jay is one of the six elders of the family, and of course he is also a high-ranking person. However, the conflict between that vein and Rong Kaixuan is a well-known thing. It's just that everyone knows that with Rong Kaixuan's performance, Rong Jay has no chance to recover in his life.
But now on Rong Jielin's big day, he came to visit, which was naturally surprising.
After a deep groan, an old man sitting on the left side of Rong Jielin said in a deep voice: "Did he come alone?"
The one who came in to report the news was Rong Kaili, the son of Rong Yiying. After Rong Kaihua left home for Liberty City. He was the oldest of the third generation. When I was out to welcome guests today, I happened to see the figure of Rong Jay, and I was alarmed, so I immediately entered the house.
At this time, I saw the old man asking. He immediately lowered his head and said, "Uncle Hui, there are also Gu Tianhe and his wife and others on the side." ”
This old man's identity is not trivial, it is the previous generation of the head of the family, Rong Jieling, but he has abdicated and retreated twenty years ago. It's just recently broken through.
Several old people at the table glanced at each other, although they were all dissatisfied in their hearts, but they had lived for so many years. All of them are old foxes alive, so they naturally refuse to express their stance easily.
With a light cough, Rong Jielin stood up and said, "Since it's the elder of the Jay clan who is here, I'll go and greet you." ”
After all, Rong Jay is one of the six innate beings, and even he is not willing to be rude in the slightest.
"Good. Rong Jason nodded slowly and said, "I'll go out with you." ”
Among these people here, he and Rong Jielin are brothers, and it is undoubtedly the most appropriate to go out to greet each other.
The two old men walked side by side and came to the door of the mansion. Although Rong Jielin is not congenital, but now when he and his brother walk, they can already go hand in hand.
At the entrance, Rong Jay, Gu Tianhe and his wife and others really arrived.
Rong Jason's gaze turned, and he glanced at the two old men beside Gu Tianhe, and couldn't help but be slightly startled in his heart. He had already recognized that these two were not ordinary Gu family guards, but real powerhouses who had reached the innate level of cultivation.
This is also the innate protector that Gu Tianhe was equipped with in the family after he became the next generation of the Gu family.
His heart was racing, and he said with a smile in his mouth: "Brother Gu, Brother Jay, today is the 80th birthday of my brother, and it is really brilliant to be able to see the two of you." ”
Gu Tianhe's identity was already different, so when he greeted him, he actually put him in front of Rong Jieyi.
Gu Tianhe smiled and nodded, but Rong Jay's father and daughter had gloomy faces, and the corners of their mouths showed a hint of mockery.
Jason Rong's heart sank, but on the surface he remained silent and invited them into the house.
After seeing everyone in the room, Rong Jieyi's face suddenly changed, especially when he saw Rong Jieling present, there was a trace of resentment in his eyes.
When he was young, he was also famous in the Rong family and had a huge reputation. However, on his head, there is always a person who is pressing him like a mountain, and that is Rong Jieling.
Although this is the old yellow calendar for decades, he does not have the slightest good impression of Rong Jieling.
"Hehe, it turns out that everyone is here, so the old man doesn't need to notify him twice. Rong Jay smiled gloomily and said coldly.
"Notice?" Rong Jieling stood up and said with a smile: "Jay, is there something that needs you to come and inform me in person." ”
Rong Jay Daxiao sighed and said, "It seems that your news is not well-informed." He turned his gaze and suddenly fell on Rong Yiyang's body, and said slowly: "This news of mine is related to Yiyang, your precious son." ”
Everyone's faces changed slightly, and they naturally knew who the son of Rong Yiyang was. Moreover, as long as you look at Jon Jay's performance, you know that this news is not a good thing.
Rong Yiyang's eyebrows twitched a few times, he barely calmed down, and said, "Elder of the Jay clan, please make it clear." ”
Rong Jay opened his mouth and laughed wildly: "Haha, Rong Yiyang, your precious son went deep into the beast clan realm and was killed by the beast clan powerhouse......"
His words echoed in everyone's ears like a giant hammer, and Fang Xiuli, who was not far away, trembled slightly, wanting to stand up, but her legs were weak, and she was directly unconscious. The people around her hurriedly held her up and called in a low voice.
Rong Yiyang's footsteps staggered, and he said, "No, it's impossible." ”
Rong Jielin and the others were all pale, they never thought that Rong Jieyi would inform this bad news.
Rong Jieling's face was solemn, his gaze fell on Gu Tianhe's body, and he said slowly: "Brother Gu, did you bring this news?"
Gu Tianhe didn't hide it, he said slowly: "Yes, this is the news that our Gu family found in Freedom City. He paused and said, "This matter has spread all over Liberty City, and none of the eight great grandmasters have come out to refute it, it should be a fact." He turned his gaze and looked at Rong Jiexuan, and said regretfully: "The old Jiexuan clan, the Meng Yan brothers are also with Rong Kaixuan, and it is said that they fell together." ”
Rong Jiexuan's face suddenly turned pale, and there was no longer the slightest trace of blood.
The two elders of the Peng family and the Lin family glanced at each other, and there was a look of horror in their eyes that could not be concealed.
The impact of this news on them is not ordinarily big.
Rong Jay looked at everyone's expressions, and his heart was full of inexplicable pleasure. Suddenly, he turned his head and said, "Bewitching the head of the family, the old man has something he wants to discuss with you." ”
Rong Yi was stunned, he stood up and said, "What's the matter with the old Jay?"
Rong Jieyi said proudly: "The Rong family has been inherited for hundreds of years, and there are talents from generation to generation. Hehe, according to the ancestral teachings, this family inheritance is not set in stone. ”
A trace of anger suddenly flashed on Rong Yi's bewildered face, and he said, "What does the old man of the Jay clan mean by this, is it to compete for the position of the head of the family?" ”
Rong Jay sneered: "Yes, the old man has this intention. ”
Although he wished to slaughter Rong Yiyang and his wife immediately, he was extremely happy to see the two of them mourning more than dying at this time. Moreover, he also knew that this was not the best time to make a move, as long as he could obtain the position of head of the family, then the life and death of these two people were not in his control.
Rong Yifu took a deep breath and said loudly: "Clan elder, have you forgotten that in the ancestral training, every head of the family is jointly elected by all the clan elders, if you are ......"
"Hmph. Rong Jay snorted coldly suddenly, interrupted him, and said, "There is another rule in the ancestral teachings, if the current head of the family is not enough to serve the public, as long as half of the clan elders are in favor, you can nominate someone to challenge him and decide the position of the head of the family. He said aloud: "Now, the old man questions your character and force as a clan elder, hehe, I don't know which clan elders will support you." ”
His gaze looked at the five clan elders in the room.
Rong Jiexuan's body trembled slightly, after hearing Meng Yan's news, he seemed to be a little demented, and Rong Jiesen's performance was not much better, Rong Jiehan and Rong Jiexiang glanced at each other, and when they were about to speak, they heard Gu Tianhe cough lightly, and those bright eyes stared at them tightly.
The two of them felt a chill in their hearts, thinking of the dead Rong Kaixuan and Meng Yan, as well as the identity of Gu Tianhe now, and suddenly became hesitant.
Rong Jieling's eyes were solemn, he slowly stood up, and said with a smile: "Jay, what you want to challenge should be the old man." ”
Before Rong Jieyi could speak, Gu Tianhe had already spoken: "Senior Jieling, you are the head of the previous generation of the Rong family, so don't get involved in this matter." (To be continued......)
