"What happened?"
A middle-aged man with a heavy waist and pan temples and outstanding temperament stepped into the courtyard with fast pace, and the timing was just right.
"Patriarch?"
The second uncle of the Tang family was stunned, and Gu Chen's eyes fell on the face of the visitor. It seemed that this person was Tang Xuance, the head of the Tang family, the commander of the Peiguo Water Dance Army, and Tang Jianqing's father!
"Second brother, what's going on?"
Tang Xuance came closer, glanced at Gu Gongfeng who couldn't move, and asked with a frown.
The second uncle of the Tang family was about to answer when Gu Chen spoke first. "I heard that the Tang family is not going to make offerings to me. Dare to ask the owner of the Tang family, is there such a thing?"
Tang Xuance was surprised when he heard this. "This is Mr. Chen Yichen, right? How could this happen? You are my son's savior. How can my Tang family go back on your word?"
He denied it as soon as he opened his mouth, and his statement was completely different from that of the second uncle of the Tang family.
"Patriarch, the matter of enshrining is of great importance and should not be taken lightly..." The second uncle of the Tang family couldn't help interjecting, but Tang Xuance waved his hand to interrupt him.
"Gao Lan has already told me. Since she has promised, and Mr. Chen has saved my son's life twice, our Tang family will naturally follow through on what they say."
"From today onwards, Mr. Chen will be an enshrinement of my Tang family, and enjoy the same treatment as the other two enshrined. Pass on my words and tell the whole house. From now on, you will not neglect Mr. Chen when you see him!"
Tang Xuance acted swiftly and resolutely, and settled the matter in just a few sentences, and he did not allow the second uncle of the Tang family to waste his time talking.
The second uncle of the Tang family stared, as if he was a little puzzled, but he didn't dare to contradict the Patriarch, so he could only agree.
Gu Chen looked at Tang Xuance, who was grateful for his kindness, and the corner of his mouth curled up in a playful way, and the originally tense atmosphere was quietly resolved.
"What's wrong with Gu Gongfeng?"
After dealing with the matter, Tang Xuance seemed to notice Gu Gongfeng who was standing there blankly, showing confusion.
Gu Chen smiled, but with a thought, Gu Gongfeng suddenly regained his mobility.
As soon as he was free, Gu Gongfeng subconsciously took a few steps away from Gu Chen, his eyes showed a strong look of fear, but his expression turned red.
With the weird situation just now, if no one else was around, he suspected that he might be poisoned by the other party!
"I was busy two days ago, and I didn't get time to see Mr. Chen until today. Please forgive me, Mr. Chen."
Tang Xuance explained to Gu Chen politely, without the slightest arrogance of a high-ranking person.
"Patriarch Tang, you are being polite. Didn't you send these three people to visit me?" Gu Chen responded indifferently, meaning something.
"If my second brother made a slip of the tongue just now, I will apologize to Mr. Chen on his behalf."
Tang Xuance said with a serious face, and actually made a big gift to Gu Chen while speaking.
This scene not only surprised the second uncle of the Tang family, he hesitated to speak for a while, and even surprised the two priests.
Although they have a high status in the Tang family as worshippers, they never dare to show any disrespect to the head of the Tang family, and are more often positioned as the other party's subordinates.
As the commander in charge of the military power of the Pei Kingdom, Tang Xuance possessed enormous energy, which was far beyond what casual cultivators like them could compare to.
Although Tang Xuance was usually a corporal, it was extremely rare for him to put on such a low profile when he just met someone.
The hearts of the two swayed for a while, could it be that the origin of this young man is far more simple than they imagined?
Tang Xuance lowered his voice, but Gu Chen was indifferent, and said with a smile on his face. "Master Tang, excuse me."
His attitude was like an elder treating a younger generation with arrogance, which made the second uncle of the Tang family look angry.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen, for your generosity."
But Tang Xuance didn't get angry at all, he accepted the gift politely, and said: "I have prepared wine, and I'm here to invite Mr. Chen to the banquet. I wonder if Mr. Chen will show his face?"
The meaning in his words was that he came here this time to invite Gu Chen to a banquet in person, and it was enough to send a servant to inform him.
With such sincerity, Gu Xu and the two priests would agree without even thinking about it, but Gu Chen just showed a teasing face.
"I don't have time today, so I'm free from drinking."
Don't give me any face, just refuse directly!
"You kid, don't be too rampant!" The second uncle of the Tang family was furious and couldn't help but speak.
The two priests were also very surprised, is this kid too disrespectful to the commander of the Water Dance Army?
However, they were not fools. Looking at the two people's arrogant and humble attitudes, they vaguely guessed something and kept silent.
"I'm crazy? Patriarch Tang, is this how you treat guests?"
Gu Chen glanced coldly at the second uncle of the Tang family, and there was murderous intent in his words, as if he was deliberately finding fault.
Tang Xuance's face became tense, he turned his head and shouted at his second brother: "Back off, don't be rude!"
The second uncle of the Tang family was full of disbelief, his eyes were dumbfounded.
Although his younger brother is the head of the family, why did he treat him like this on weekdays?
Right now, it is obvious that Zhu Zi is arrogant and rampant, but he actually blames himself for not being so, what's going on?
The face of the second uncle of the Tang family turned dark, he snorted heavily, turned around and walked away, not wanting to stay here to make fun of himself.
Tang Xuance ignored him, turned his head and said politely to Gu Chen: "Since Mr. Chen is not free today, I won't bother you. I will visit another day. If Mr. Chen needs anything, just ask Gao Lan or Jianqing. "
After he finished speaking, he left. The two priests naturally had no reason to stay here. They looked at Gu Chen a few more times and left resentfully.
Originally, they accompanied Uncle Tang's family to chase people away, but they didn't expect the situation to take a turn for the worse, which made them feel speechless and even a little aggrieved.
When everyone was gone, the Promise Tyrannosaurus Rex, who had been lying on his stomach in the courtyard lazily basking in the sun, showed a puzzled look, and said, "What's the matter with this Tang family? The former one was arrogant and domineering, and the latter one But keep a low voice, he is still the head of the house."
"The former one was just being used, and I came here to test my truth. The latter one... This Tang Xuance is a smart person, but it's a pity that pretending to be smart is not a good thing." Gu Chen sneered.
The second uncle of the Tang family didn't understand his situation, and it was understandable that he was not worthy of the enshrined position, but it was impossible for Tang Xuance not to know.
Tang Jianqing didn't dare to tell outsiders about the fact that he killed Shao Heyang and the dwarf old man, but he had no reason to hide it from his father.
Tang Jianqing was called by the Patriarch of the Tang Family on the first day back to the Tang Mansion. Gu Chen believed that he should have understood his situation on that day.
Now that he knew his own strength, there was nothing reluctant about being enshrined by the Tang family, but it happened that Tang Xuance never came to discuss this matter.
Gu Chen was already a little confused about this, but today the second uncle of the Tang family came to ask for trouble like a stunned young man, and Tang Xuance came so timely that he immediately understood the other party's intentions.
