Just when the two sides were about to fight, a voice came from behind the three of them, "Enough Xiaoxue, Mr. Xiao is my friend, not your enemy."
When he saw Nangong Huai, who was wearing a red Tang suit, slowly walking out of the villa, Xiao He had no choice but to stop thinking about taking action.
"Xiao, you are lucky, today I will give Second Grandpa face and spare your life." Nangong Xue said arrogantly.
Nangong Huai walked up to Xiao He with a warm smile: "Mr. Xiao, Xiaoxue doesn't know etiquette. Please forgive me if I offended you in any way."
Nangong Huai is well aware of Xiao He's force. If the two of them had started fighting just now, Nangong Xue would definitely not be in a good position. Moreover, when facing Gu Wenchang this time, the capital clearly didn't pay enough attention to it. He also needs Xiao.
River came to help.
Hearing this, Nangong Xue immediately felt unhappy, "Second Grandpa, do you need to apologize to him? I spared his life just now."
Seeing this, Nangong Yue quickly pulled her cousin aside, "Cousin, let me take you to my room to have a look! I recently bought a necklace that suits you very well."
After hearing about the necklace, Nangong Xue gave up. Although her Nangong family in the capital had a high status, its financial resources were still inferior to those of the Nangong family in Jincheng.
After the two girls left, Nangong Huai invited Xiao He to the villa. After some pleasantries, Xiao He finally asked about the Nanyang Gu family.
Although he knew in the past that the Nangong family and the Gu family had a life-and-death feud, it didn't concern him, so he didn't care. But this time, when Gu Wenchang used dirty tricks against Zhiruo, he naturally couldn't sit back and ignore it anymore.
.
Nangong Huai did not hide it from Xiao He, and began to tell a story about the past. About seventy years ago, when Nangong Huai was only a few years old, the Gu family and the Nangong family both lived in Jincheng. Now the Nanyang Gu family
The father of the family head, Gu Hualong, was a physician at Tianjin Hall, the first medical center in Jincheng.
Once when he was treating Nangong Huai's mother, he took the wrong medicine, which eventually led to Nangong Huai's mother becoming seriously ill and dying. At that time, the Nangong family had considerable power in Jincheng. Nangong Huai's father was so angry that he led others to beat Gu to death.
After his father, Gu Hualong's mother reported the crime to no avail, he also hanged himself.
Gu Hualong, who was only ten years old in the Gu family, put all his hatred on the Nangong family and vowed to make the Nangong family pay for their debt with blood. However, seeing that the Nangong family was so powerful, he traveled far away to Nanyang, and finally settled in Nanyang.
He really made a name for himself.
However, when he returned to the Dragon Kingdom to seek revenge on the Nangong family, Nangong Huai's father was dead, but Gu Hualong still refused to give up, so the two families fought back and forth for decades.
Xiao He didn't expect that the Gu family and the Nangong family still had such a grudge. It was hard to say who was right and who was wrong. He knew that once such a grudge was formed, it would definitely last forever.
Just as Xiao He finished listening to this story, a bodyguard came in and reported, "Master, Gu Wenchang is here."
Nangong Huai asked calmly: "How many people are here?"
"Only two people."
"Uh!" Nangong Huai showed a rare hint of surprise.
Xiao He was also a little puzzled. Gu Wenchang had traveled thousands of miles to seek revenge, but he only brought two people to the door. Is he so confident in the strength of the people he brought?
"Let him come in!" Nangong Huai regained his composure again. The soldiers came to cover up the water and earth. He wanted to see what kind of medicine was contained in Gu Wenchang's gourd?
Not long after, Gu Wenchang, wearing a gray suit, strode into the Nangong Villa. As expected, there was only a bodyguard behind him who was as thin as a bamboo pole.
Gu Wenchang had a faint smile on his face. Looking at this handsome face and dazzling diamond earrings, even Nangong Xue, who had always been proud, couldn't help but be stunned.
Nangong Huai's eyes narrowed, and there was no expression on his face. Nangong Yue clenched her fists, filled with rage. After experiencing several assassinations arranged by the other party, she still couldn't be like her grandfather in her state of mind.
The ancient well has no waves.
And when Xiao He glanced at Gu Wenchang and Gu Wenchang, he suddenly realized something.
Haha, this Gu Wenchang is nothing more than that!
Gu Wenchang and Nangong Huai met in front of a nearly two-meter-long mahogany table. Apparently Nangong Huai had already made arrangements. The two-meter-long table separated the two sides clearly at both ends. Even if Gu Wenchang wanted to suddenly
Xiao He and Nangong Xue also had time to deal with the situation.
At this time, Gu Wenchang took the lead in breaking the silence of several people and raised his thin lips: "Hello, Mr. Nangong!"
After saying that, he glanced at Nangong Yue aside and said, "This must be Miss Nangong! It's better to meet her than to be famous. She is indeed the most powerful person in the country!"
He speaks elegantly and shows his good upbringing. After two generations of hard work, the Gu family has already become a prominent family in Nanyang, even compared to the Nangong family.
Before Nangong Huainan Palace Yue Zusun could speak, Nangong Xue jumped out and shouted: "Gu Wenchang, why don't you stay here to pay New Year's greetings to the weasel? Your Gu family has repeatedly sent people to assassinate my second grandfather, and now you dare to come alone.
My Nangong family, I think you are tired of living!"
Gu Wenchang praised Nangong Yue lavishly, but he didn't even look at her. How could the always arrogant Nangong Xue endure it?
However, Gu Wenchang did not accept Nangong Xue's words. His expression did not change: "Mr. Nangong, I came to Jincheng this time to resolve the grievances between our two families."
Resolve grudges?
As soon as these words came out, Nangong Yue and Nangong Xue were shocked. After decades of struggle between the two families, direct descendants of both sides had died. How could this be resolved so easily?
Nangong Huai was noncommittal and still did not express his position.
Xiao He curled his lips, this man is really good at bragging! He can even talk such nonsense without blushing and heartbeat. If Gu Wenchang is really here to resolve grievances, does he still need to use dirty tricks on himself?
But he didn't say anything, so he just wanted to see what Gu Wenchang's plan was.
At this time, Nangong Xue once again put on her superior airs and said arrogantly: "Gu, don't think that I will let you go if you behave like this. If you want to get out of the Dragon Kingdom safely, just
Let your old man come to Long Kingdom in person and kneel down to apologize!"
In her opinion, it was obvious that the Gu family could no longer compete with the Nangong family, so they wanted to ask for peace. She had heard that the Gu family had recently launched several assassinations against Nangong Huai's ancestors and grandsons, and she thought how great they were.
I didn't expect that I would become a coward as soon as I arrived. Maybe I was frightened after hearing that I was taking charge of the Nangong family.
Gu Wenchang still ignored Nangong Xue. He had long known the identity of this woman. She was just a descendant of Nangong Huai, and her strength was only in the middle of the Huang rank, so he didn't take it seriously at all.
The only person in this room that he feared was Xiao He.
"Bring out the gifts!"
As Gu Wenchang finished speaking, the skinny bamboo bodyguard behind him placed the suitcase in his hand on the table.
When he was about to open it, he was stopped by Nangong Xue again, "Wait a minute, Gu Wenchang, who knows if you have hidden weapons inside, let our people come."
This is the most thoughtful thing Nangong Xue has said in a long time.
Gu Wenchang nodded, with a bright smile on his lips, and made a gesture of invitation, "Then it's up to you to do whatever you want!"
Seeing that Nangong Huai was silent, Nangong Xue stretched out her hand towards a bodyguard and said, "Come here."
The bodyguard responded, walked over and opened the suitcase carefully. He was a veteran and had been trained in bomb disposal. At this time, he was focused on the suitcase. If there was a bomb hidden inside, it would never escape his eyes.
But after he carefully checked the suitcase and found no danger, he opened the suitcase and moved it in the direction of Nangong Huai.
When he saw the contents of the box, Nangong Huai, who had always been as steady as a rock, couldn't help but his eyelids twitched, and Nangong Yue also showed an incredulous look. What was inside turned out to be an ancient jade and a piece of porcelain.
