The son-in-law of the first wealthy family

Without that woman, none of these things would have happened, so it was Liu Zhicheng who was wrong, not their daughter.

Because of this incident, the cooperation between the First Elder and Shangguan Mingyu was completely over, and the two sides also fell out. As for the marriage contract between Shangguan Mingyu and Liu Yingying, naturally it was also gone.

When Liu Yingying knew about these things, although she was sad that her brother had died, she was more happy that she finally didn't have to marry Shangguan Mingyu again.

After experiencing these things, the Great Elder calmed down and still wondered whether Shangguan Mingchen was playing tricks, but before the Great Elder suspected, Shangguan Mingchen wiped away all the tails, and at the same time, people who knew these things They were all silenced.

Shangguan Mingchen has always believed in the words that dead people will not leak secrets.

So the Great Elder did not investigate anything, but he would not support Shangguan Mingchen because of this, but started to consolidate his power with all his heart.

Although the expected effect was not achieved, Shangguan Mingchen is also very satisfied with the current result, as long as the Great Elder does not support his opponent.

Shangguan Mingyu, without the support of the great elder, was no match for Shangguan Mingchen at all, and was soon squeezed out by Shangguan Mingchen by means, and became a marginal member of the Shangguan family.

These methods of Shangguan Mingchen were naturally seen by the elders, and at the same time, they also understood that Shangguan Mingchen was indeed more suitable for the position of the patriarch.

It's just that these things seem to have calmed down, but Liu Yingying did not give up, she still wanted to marry Shangguan Mingchen, and even for this purpose, she secretly began to poison Shangguan Mingchen's wife.

At this time, Shangguan Mingchen's wife was already pregnant, and Shangguan Mingchen also noticed Liu Yingying's actions, but he didn't stop him, and he didn't even remind his wife, as if he didn't know anything, he still treated his wife Caring.

As expected, Shangguan Mingchen's wife gave birth prematurely, and it was a dystocia. In the end, she also encountered a blood collapse. Shangguan Mingchen's wife died just like that, and the pair of twin daughters she gave birth to only survived. One is Shangguan Ling.

When Shangguan Mingchen was his wife, he was extremely sad. Although he didn't wash his face with tears every day, his whole body was visible to the naked eye. This made Liu Yingying feel distressed. No matter whether Shangguan Mingchen lost his temper with her or drove her away, she would Insist on staying to take care of Shangguan Mingchen.

The Great Elder saw what his daughter did, but he didn't say anything, just quietly watching the development of the situation.

It took Liu Yingying two years to finally enter Shangguan Mingchen's life, and married Shangguan Mingchen as she wished. When Liu Yingying got married, the elder found Shangguan Mingchen and gave him a warning.

"I don't care how your wife died, but you'd better lie to my daughter for the rest of your life. Don't do anything to make her sad, otherwise I will never let you go!"

The First Elder obviously knew something, but Liu Yingying only believed what she saw. The First Elder who had already lost a son did not want to lose another daughter, so she could only agree to her daughter's marriage.

Recalling the past, Shangguan Mingchen also thought of his eldest son Shangguan Jin and daughter Shangguan Ling who had been neglected by him.

When Shangguan Ling was young, Shangguan Mingchen also loved him for a while. After all, this was the child his wife saved with her life.

It's just that as Shangguan Ling grew older, he became more and more like his dead wife. Shangguan Mingchen would always think of his wife's death, and gradually alienated Shangguan Ling.

As for Shangguan Jin, this child had a cold personality since he was a child, and he was not close to Shangguan Mingchen. After his mother died, he didn't even want to see Shangguan Mingchen.

Shangguan Mingchen suspected that Shangguan Jin knew something, but firstly, there was no evidence, and secondly, he was his eldest son, so he simply let him go until the birth of his youngest son, Shangguan Xin.

Shangguan Xin's personality is completely different from Shangguan Jin's. When Shangguan Xin was young, he especially liked to cling to Shangguan Mingchen, which greatly satisfied Shangguan Mingchen's vanity as a father.

When Shangguan Xin bullied Shangguan Jin brothers and sisters for the first time because of Shangguan Mingchen, Shangguan Mingchen was found by the elder, and the elder told Shangguan Mingchen clearly that his heir could only be Shangguan Xin, otherwise he would Publish those things that Shangguan Mingchen did, and make Shangguan Mingchen lose everything now.

Because of the Great Elder, although Shangguan Mingchen felt sorry for Shangguan Jin brothers and sisters, he could only acquiesce in the fact that all this happened.

He didn't receive any punishment, not even a word of blame, which made Shangguan Xin more and more emboldened, and once even almost killed Shangguan Ling, Shangguan Mingchen finally couldn't bear it, and locked Shangguan Xin for three days.

After the Great Elder knew about it, he also went to find Shangguan Mingchen. This time, Shangguan Mingchen finally looked like a father. Finally, under Liu Yingying's persuasion, the two reached an agreement.

As long as Shangguan Xin no longer hurt the lives of Shangguan Jin and his sisters, then Shangguan Mingchen could only let him go, and he couldn't even meet with Shangguan Jin and his brothers and sisters often.

Liu Yingying, who didn't know the truth, still felt that her father's actions were too impersonal and overbearing, but when she thought of Shangguan Mingchen's affection for her ex-wife, Liu Yingying couldn't say anything against her father.

In Liu Yingying's thinking, if Shangguan Mingchen and Shangguan Jin brothers and sisters were often allowed to meet, it would threaten her son's status, so she acquiesced in this matter, just taking care of the brothers and sisters in private, at least they can live without food and clothing. You will not be bullied by anyone other than Shangguan Xin.

Shangguan Mingchen also knew this, so he simply let go of these things, and didn't even pay attention to them, only occasionally hearing a few words from his cronies.

In such an environment, it is normal for Shangguan Xin's personality to become arrogant and domineering, but Shangguan Mingchen is actually not very optimistic about Shangguan Xin. Will soon be pulled off the horse.

So Shangguan Mingchen usually beat Shangguan Xin, but Shangguan Xin didn't listen much.

What happened to the Xiao family today seemed to have passed on the surface, but Shangguan Mingchen also saw from this incident that Shangguan Xin did not have a long-term vision and was not suitable to be the patriarch at all.

Shangguan Xin was not suitable, so Shangguan Mingchen naturally thought of Shangguan Jin. Although Shangguan Mingchen didn't pay much attention to Shangguan Jin these years, he still knew some things.

For example, the marriage planned by Shangguan Jin for Shangguan Ling, although the other party's family background is not as good as Shangguan's family, but his character is excellent in all aspects. After getting married, Shangguan Ling lived a very happy life.
