"Mom, there's something I want to ask you."
The mother and son talked for a long time, and Gu Chen's expression suddenly became tense and serious.
"You want to ask about the Shen family?"
Shen Yushu seemed to know what Gu Chen was thinking, and murmured.
Gu Chen nodded, "I learned something from a friend before. It is said that when his father disappeared three years ago, it was Huangfu Wuji's fourth son, Huangfude, who went to Donghuang to chase and kill him, and the Shen family was involved in this incident." shadow."
"Father's whereabouts are still unknown. I want to know what the Shen family has to do with his disappearance, and what kind of attitude do they have towards the Huangfu family?"
When chatting with Ji Lanchu at the beginning, Gu Chen inferred the general events that happened three years ago, and also understood the relationship between the Shen family and himself, but he was not sure whether the Shen family was an enemy or a friend.
His mother is currently living in the Shen family, if the Shen family is not trustworthy, then he will take her away no matter what.
"I didn't expect you to have investigated the matter to this point. If you don't tell me about it, I will tell you about it."
Shen Yushu sighed, "I know you haven't met your grandfather since you were a child, and you don't know anything about the Shen family, so you can't help but speculate about them. But you have to trust your mother, the Shen family is not bad."
"Back then, mother resolutely married your father in spite of your grandfather's opposition. After that, she had no contact with her family. But the blood relationship is broken and the legs are still connected. Your grandfather and your uncle still care about your mother. .”
"Three years ago, Huangfude led a large number of people to the Eastern Wasteland, trying to capture your father who had awakened as a domineering bone. The Shen family received the news and went to mediate, trying to save your father's life."
When Gu Chen heard this, he couldn't help but relax his brows.
What he was most afraid of was that the Shen family was collaborating with the Huangfu family. In that case, he would definitely be in an embarrassing situation in the future, but from what his mother said, they were not the same people.
"Will the Huangfu family listen to the Shen family?"
"If your grandfather prevents the Huangfu family from taking away your father's bones, the Huangfu family's power will naturally not listen, but if you let them live, it may not be impossible. People don’t necessarily die.”
"It's so naive."
Gu Chen shook his head.
"This is the only thing the Shen family can do. If it weren't for your grandfather's high morals, there are a large number of officials inside and outside the court who are Confucian students. I'm afraid Huangfu Wuji won't even give this face."
"It's like the mother staying here in Shen's mansion, the Huangfu family knows it well, it's just because they believe that mother is not a threat, and keeping you can attract you, and there are still matters in the court that need your grandfather's help, so let mother safe and sound."
From his mother's words, Gu Chen understood the relationship between the Shen family and the Huangfu family.
Shen Xudong and Huangfu Wuji were officials in the same dynasty, and the Huangfu family needed the influence of a famous Confucian family, so the Shen family was safe and sound.
This kind of relationship is actually very delicate, if one day the Shen family is no longer valuable, maybe it will usher in the disaster of extinction.
No wonder even a boy like Shen Yanhong is worried about the safety of the Shen family. The Shen family seems to be in a good place now, but with the rising of the Huangfu family, the crisis is gradually deepening.
And all of this was brought by their own family. If it wasn't for the Gu family, they wouldn't be in such a situation.
Not abandoning mother at a critical moment, and even wanting to save father's life, the Shen family has actually done their utmost to be benevolent.
Gu Chen's perception of the Shen family improved a lot for a while.
"What did father go through three years ago, mother, can you ask grandpa?"
Regret appeared on Shen Yushu's face. "The Shen family came forward to save your father's life, but unfortunately they arrived one step too late, and your father's whereabouts were already missing when they arrived."
"It is said that all the people brought by Huangfude were dead, and he was the only one who went back in disgrace. The Shen family wanted to know what happened, but how could the Huangfu family say that? But I firmly believe that your father is still alive, because Huangfude was obviously alive at the time. It was a big loss, and I was furious when I went back."
Shen Yushu's statement coincided with Ji Lanchu's, and Gu Chen regretted not having more specific information.
In this way, the only person who may know the whereabouts of his father is Huang Fude.
A cold light flashed in Gu Chen's eyes.
"Chen'er, since you have come to the Shen residence, do you want to recognize your grandfather?"
Shen Yushu hesitated for a moment and asked.
Gu Chen shook his head without thinking.
"Are you blaming your grandfather in your heart?"
Shen Yushu asked.
"Of course not. The Shen family has a large group of people to take care of. I understand their difficulties. It's just that my identity is too sensitive. If the Shen family finds out, it will inevitably make things difficult for them."
Gu Chen is very thoughtful, he is grateful that the Shen family can take in his mother, he and the Huangfu family are destined to live forever, in this case, in order not to implicate the Shen family, they had better not know who they are.
"That's fine. It's a pity that your grandfather hasn't seen you since he was a child. He will be surprised if he knows that you are the genius who inspired the day."
Shen Yushu smiled, his brows were full of pride for his son.
"By the way, it's okay for you to knock your cousin out, but it's not good for someone to find him later and alarm the entire Shen family."
She changed the subject.
"My mother is still considerate."
Only then did Gu Chen notice that it was getting dark, and Shen Xudong would have to go back home.
I just moved into Shen's residence today, according to etiquette, Shen Xudong should treat me, if I can't find him then, it will be even worse.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen's spiritual consciousness stretched out, covering the entire Shen residence.
"It seems that I can't eat at my mother's place tonight."
Gu Chen said with some regret, prying with his spiritual sense, he found that the kitchen of Shen's residence was in full swing right now, clearly preparing to entertain himself as a guest tonight.
"What's so difficult about that? Xiaoqiu and the others will be back soon, so you can eat here first."
Shen Yushu rubbed his son's hair, "Mother cooks your favorite dish tonight, before that, you should quickly arrange your cousin."
"Obey!"
Gu Chen was in a good mood because he could eat the dishes cooked by his mother himself. He immediately woke up Shen Yanhong, and cast an illusion on him when he was in a daze, so that he could go back to his residence by himself.
At the same time, under Gu Chen's deliberate hypnosis, he forgot that he had been here with his aunt.
Gu Chen felt a little sorry for this kid, thought about it, and stuffed a jade slip into his pocket.
It is a practice, which is very effective in the cultivation of the physical body, and can lay a solid foundation.
If this kid endures hardships and is indeed talented in cultivation, Gu Chen will teach him better exercises when he achieves a little success in cultivation.
Xiaoqiu and Bai Yuan came back soon, and the mother cooked the dishes herself, cooking a table of sumptuous delicacies.
Gu Chen and Bai Yuan ate happily, and the meal was like wind and wind. Xiao Qiu was dumbfounded, and Shen Yushu laughed.
When night fell, Shen Xudong came back, and Gu Chen, who had lost his consciousness, noticed it immediately.
