Six Paths of Medicine

Chen Changlong was a little stunned.

Chen Jiannian and other people from the Chen clan who were present were also slightly stunned.

The Southeast Chen family may not be well understood by some younger generations, but Chen Changlong may have the most say.

"Old man, am I right?" Chu Yuan sat on the sofa of the Chen clan with a faint smile on his face.

Chen Changlong was silent for a while, just drinking tea from the cup.

After a while, he raised his head: "What do you want to express?"

Chu Yuan raised his eyebrows slightly: "The old man only needs to answer me, are you and Chen Changye brothers?"

"Grandpa, this..." Chen Jiu looked at Chen Changlong, confused for a moment.

Chen Jiannian, Chen Guofeng, Chen Shengyi and other core members of the Chen family are not very clear either.

Seeing everyone's doubts, Chen Changlong no longer concealed anything: "You are right, Changye is my third uncle's son, and I grew up together. Later, after the Yannan earthquake, my third uncle took their family and fled south. "

"Later, I followed the genealogy and found Southeast. However, Changye had stabilized in Southeast and never came back."

Upon hearing this, the people of the Chen clan present began to whisper among themselves.

"It turns out that the Southeast Chen family is also related to us by blood."

"Yes, according to what the clan leader said, Chen Changye should be our elder!"

"Counting three generations up, we are all one family!"

Everyone was surprised, they had never known such a thing.

Chu Yuan smiled at this time: "So, back to the question raised by the clan leader. You just mentioned that you can kill me to avenge Chen Changkong in Sifang Town."

"Then I would like to ask Grandpa Patriarch, Chen Changye is also your brother, why haven't I heard you say that you want to avenge him?"

Chen Changlong frowned: "Cao Bao killed Changye. You know Cao Bao's methods better than me. I want revenge, so I have to have this ability."

"So, Grandpa Patriarch, are you bullying the weak and fearing the strong?" Chu Yuan asked him with a smile.

"This..." Chen Changlong suddenly choked on his words.

Chen Jiu on the side also took a deep breath.

From the standpoint of the Chen clan, they have no reason to avenge these people.

Although the three generations above are members of the same clan, they actually parted ways decades ago.

……

"Chu Yuan, what my grandfather just said was just a joke. We have no control over the affairs of Sifang Town."

Chen Jiu said something at this time, expressing the attitude of the Chen family.

Chu Yuan didn't pay much attention to this matter.

He continued: "The Chen family just wants to live a stable life in the northwest, and there is nothing wrong with that. I am here just to ask about another thing."

"What do you want to ask?" Chen Changlong asked.

"According to our investigation at the Southeast God of War Building, there are a total of twelve major families in Yannan, but after I arrived, I only knew about the ten major families. Where are the other two families?"

The last time Leng Bing came to the northwest, he brought back news that there were twelve major families in the northwest.

But now, Chu Yuan only saw the top ten wealthy families, including the Ye family.

These words made Chen Changlong stunned: "Chu Yuan, do you really think you will be Cao Bao's opponent? Actually, I don't think you should continue."

"You just need to answer my questions, that's it." Chu Yuandao.

"I have no right to answer you!" Chen Changlong objected.

Seeing this, Chu Yuan was not angry.

Instead, he leaned up on the sofa: "Since the patriarch said so, I have to talk to you today."

Everyone present from the Chen clan looked at each other.

Chen Changlong also felt unprecedented pressure at this time.

This was the first time he met Chu Yuan, but he didn't expect that at such an old age, his train of thought would be completely led astray by Chu Yuan.

Chu Yuan is ready to explain the whole matter to Chen Changlong!

……

"In the last century, your third uncle took his children and fled south. He settled in the southeastern provincial capital and established the Chen family."

"More than twenty years ago, Chen Changye, who controlled the Chen family, was involved in the northwest's economic trap against the southeast. His family was destroyed overnight, and his wife and children were separated!"

"For more than [-] years, Cao Bao has always been worried about the Chen clan in Yannan. There is one thing I believe the old man has considered. That is, will there be any major changes in the Chen clan in a hundred years from now?"

Chu Yuan's eyes were firm and his words were sharp.

The first two sentences may be irrelevant, but the last sentence seemed to hit Chen Changlong's heart.

Chen Changlong's face, which contained the universe, suddenly changed.

"Boy, what are you talking about? If you talk nonsense here again, I will drive you out." Chen Jiannian heard Chu Yuan's malice and immediately scolded him angrily.

Chen Changlong stopped Chen Jiannian.

Chen Changlong said: "My Chen clan is very united in Yannan and occupies many mineral resources in Yannan. As long as our hearts are together, no one can move us."

Chu Yuan was happy.

"Based on the urine of your Chen clan, you Chen Changlong can withstand it. Let me ask you, if you are a hundred years from now, who are you going to find to succeed you?" Chu Yuan said bluntly.

"This is a member of our Chen clan, you have no right to interfere." Chen Changlong objected.

Chu Yuan knew he would say this, so he smiled and said: "We Ming people don't tell secrets. If you want Chen Jiu to take over the Chen clan, then I ask you, with Chen Jiu's ability, how many people are there in the Chen clan?" Don’t you agree with him?”

"In other words, even if Chen Jiu doesn't come to power, how much do you think there will be in the Chen family after your death?"

Chen Changlong was exposed by Chu Yuan's words, which caused an uproar in his heart.

What he was most worried about was that after his death, other people would disobey the arrangements.

Chu Yuan's words only expressed the true reflection of his heart.

When the conversation changed, Chu Yuan said again: "I can tell you this, if you die today, tomorrow, Cao Bao will destroy your Chen clan, just like he killed Chen Changye's family."

"Even now, are you still deceiving yourself?"

Chen Changlong's heart continued to fluctuate.

Cao Bao came to him more than once and wanted to cooperate with the Chen clan.

They were able to speak in front of Cao Bao because Chen Changlong had a strong voice.

As long as he says something, everyone will obey him.

If Chen Changlong is gone and Cao Bao secretly stirs up dissension, I'm afraid that the family will be in chaos without Cao Bao taking action.

"If you want to survive, there is only one thing you can do, and that is to kill all Cao Bao and his remaining members."

"As long as the southeast is left in the hands of the right people, not only your family, but thousands of households in Yannan can live a stable life. Don't you know this?" Chu Yuan asked back.

Chen Changlong took a deep breath: "So after talking so much today, you just want us to help you deal with Cao Bao?"

Chu Yuan's lips curled up: "You are not helping me, but you are helping yourself. If you continue to sit like this, when I kill Cao Bao, the Chen clan will be the first threat I get rid of."

"Think about it!"

After saying that, Chu Yuan stood up and walked out.
