This banquet was hosted by the Bai family, so what role did the Bai family play in it?

Is the Bai family acting as a protective umbrella for these people?

But what puzzled everyone present was why the Bai family did this?

If they died in the Bai family's banquet, it would not be of any benefit to the Bai family.

Even the Bai family will be included in the investigation.

But at the same time, they also knew in their hearts that if the Bai family had not thought of a way out, they would not have made such a choice.

The middle-aged man did not attract attention because of Liu Shuqin being shot. He didn't even care who fired the shot, because Liu Shuqin's life or death was not important to him.

At this time, the person he cared about most was Gu Jinhe.

So at this time, the middle-aged man turned to Gu Jinhe and said, "Miss Gu, I know your shooting skills are very accurate, but do you think you can save everyone present by yourself?"

"I have secured this place inside and out for tonight's operation, making sure not even a fly can fly out."

"So, Miss Gu, you don't have to worry too much. Not only you, but everyone else in the hall can't escape!"

Gu Jinhe said in a cold tone: "So, you admit that your purpose is to kill everyone present."

At this point, the middle-aged man no longer had to deny it. He said in a rough voice, "So what?"

"This day next year will be the anniversary of your death!"

Gu Jinhe: "I still have the same question, who do you belong to? Since we are all going to die here tonight, why not just be a ghost who knows what's going on?"

"Or maybe you're too scared to tell us?"

Hearing this, the middle-aged man snorted coldly: "You don't need to provoke me. Since Miss Gu wants to know, I will tell you and make you understand."

Everyone hiding in various corners pricked up their ears and listened to what the middle-aged man said.

The middle-aged man said, "I am from the Murong family, and I am the housekeeper of the old patriarch of the Murong family, Murong Tian!"

Murong Tian?

Gu Jinhe frowned secretly. She had heard Murong Chuan mention that this man was extremely ruthless and was also the most loyal person to the Murong family.

He was the most trusted confidant of the previous patriarch of the Murong family.

Murong Tian: "The entire hall is surrounded by my people. There is no way you can escape."

"Miss Gu, you don't have to waste your breath. Even if you have three heads and six arms, you can't rescue everyone in here!"

Gu Jinhe said coldly: "The Murong family is cooperating with the Bai family. They really cooperate with each other. One of them is hosting a banquet to invite the heirs of the major families, and the other is letting the Murong family hide in the dark."

"Cooperation from within and without is indeed a good strategy!"

"What does the Murong family want to do? Are they trying to wipe out all the noble families?"

"Hasn't the Bai family always avoided dealing with aristocratic families? Why are they cooperating with the Murong family?"

"What is the purpose?"

"Does the Bai family really not care about the lives of hundreds of people in the hall?"

"Or did the Bai family use our lives as a token of loyalty and give them to the Murong family?"

Gu Jinhe's questions came one after another, making it difficult for everyone present to keep up. However, as they listened to these questions, everyone's faces changed.

What kind of family is the Bai family?

Everyone present knew the truth, otherwise they would not have traveled so far to attend this banquet.

It was because they saw the opportunity of this banquet. This was the first time in decades that the Bai family invited children of aristocratic families to attend the banquet, so of course everyone was extremely excited.

But what they didn't expect was that before coming here, they had carefully prepared gifts for the Bai family.

But the Bai family wanted to keep their lives in Lincheng, in the Bai family.

How ridiculous!

How hateful!

Perhaps it was because Murong Tian and Gu Jinhe had said so much that they didn't order anyone to shoot, or perhaps it was because they knew they couldn't escape, so they stopped struggling.

Someone couldn't help but ask, "What is the Bai family going to do?"

"Can't you see? The Bai family is going to be the local emperor!"

The eight great families in the capital hold the economic lifeline of the whole country. If all the families are controlled in the hands, it would undoubtedly be like getting a treasure pot.

Gained huge wealth, wealth that is unimaginable and even unthinkable.

By that time, both power and wealth will be in the hands of the Bai family. Is there any need to think about what they will do?

For a moment, everyone present started talking, and then they started to curse the Bai family.

He cursed with whatever words he could think of, even the ancestors of the Bai family were not spared.

There was no member of the Bai family in the hall at that moment, so no one stood up to defend themselves.

The only person Murong Tian cares about is the Murong family. As for the Bai family, it is just a temporary cooperation and he has no obligation to explain for the Bai family.

Just as everyone was discussing, Murong Tian suddenly asked, "Are you done?"

The scene suddenly fell into dead silence, and no one dared to speak. They had forgotten how the Murong family had treated them before.

Although I know that I will die at the hands of the Murong family sooner or later, it would still be better if I could die a little later.

Maybe later on, you won’t have to die?

Then wouldn’t the person who died first have died in vain?

So the hall fell silent again.

Murong Tian looked in the direction of Gu Jinhe and said, "Miss Gu, you have too many questions. Which one should I answer for you?"

Gu Jinhe said in a deep voice: "Decades ago, the Murong family had already taken action against the seven great families. It is not surprising that they are doing it again now."

Murong Tian snorted coldly: "You know it clearly. Was it the old lady of the Gu family who told you?"

Gu Jinhe: "Do you know why the Murong family attacked the seven great families back then?"

Murong Tian: "They are the ones who don't know how to live or die. They actually want to unite and fight against our Murong family. Let them know how powerful our Murong family is!"

Gu Jinhe lowered his eyelids and said, "In fact, I have always been puzzled about this matter. Since the seven great families have united together to deal with the Murong family, they must have kept it secret. But the news was still leaked. Mr. Murong, can you tell me why?"

In the darkness, Murong Tian raised the corner of his lips and said with an ambiguous tone: "Now that the Bai family can cooperate with my Murong family once, then we couldn't cooperate before?"

Gu Jinhe frowned, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

Therefore, it was the Bai family who leaked the news and told the Murong family that the seven major families had united to deal with the Murong family.

This allowed the Murong family to prepare in advance and even counterattack the seven major families.

Because the Murong family acted too quickly and too ruthlessly, the seven major families were caught off guard. They were completely unprepared and were almost destroyed in this struggle.

The children of the noble families who heard these words were filled with hatred. They had heard something about the family struggles in the past from their elders. Who didn't have an elder who died at the hands of the Murong family?

This is a blood feud!

No one expected that the Bai family was involved behind this.

The informers turned out to be the Bai family!
