Section 156: Friend or Foe
In Ouyang Wuji's bedroom, Yun Hongsheng paid a visit to him as his junior. Seeing the old master Ouyang lying in bed, seemingly gravely ill, he couldn't help but sigh.
The feud between the OuYang and Yun families originated from the generation of OuYang Wudi's father. Seeing OuYang's grandfather nearing the end of his life, he couldn't help but feel a sense of loneliness. The older generation was finally fading away, leaving behind this group of young people who were likely to face an increasingly difficult situation in the future.
Mr. Ouyang Wuji, after all, knows the big picture and has made comprehensive considerations. Even though there is hatred between the two families, it's impossible for a major storm to erupt. But once he leaves, whoever takes over as the head of the Ouyang family will not be able to have the same broad perspective as Ouyang Wuji.
Having led the Yun family for several years, Yun Hongsheng knew too well the temperaments of those young people from the OuYang family. If a major conflict were to truly erupt between the two families in the future, they would not have many scruples and the Yun family would likely face a lot of trouble.
Especially facing the current situation, he couldn't help but sigh.
Since he entered, the housekeeper brewed tea for him. Ouyang Wudi had been staring at him the whole time. The old fox was an old fox after all, a gleam flashed in his eyes, but he pretended to cough twice, his voice weak and said: "Ot Yun's family boy, I didn't expect that after many years, you would be the first one to step into the Ouyang family gate." ot
Yun Hongsheng let out a wry smile, bowed to Ou Yang Wu Di, and said: "This feud ultimately stems from the grievances of the previous generation. In this day and age, there are no eternal friends, only eternal interests. The struggle between the Ou Yang family and the Yun family for so long has benefited neither side."
Ouyang Wudi coughed three times, clutching his chest with one hand. The butler hurried forward but was waved away by him. He glanced at Yun Hongsheng and said lightly: "If the Ouyang family really wanted to fight your Yun family, there wouldn't be a Yun family in Linhai City long ago."
Ouyang Wudi showed no mercy.
Yun Hongsheng sighed softly in his heart, knowing that Ou Yang Wudi was telling the truth. The Ou Yang family had not pushed the Yun family to their absolute demise after all, leaving room for them to survive. Otherwise, as he said, the Yun family would have ceased to exist long ago.
Ouyang, the head of the Ouyang family, forgot, it wasn't that they didn't want to take real action, but because the Ding family was watching from behind with covetous eyes. Yun Hongsheng said without mercy. What he said wasn't wrong either. If the two families really clashed, even if the Yun family couldn't win, the Ouyang family would lose a layer of skin.
And this opportunity is exactly what the Ding family, ranked first in Linhai City, has been looking forward to.
Ouyang Wudi smiled faintly, and his evaluation of this young man in his heart rose a little. It seemed that Yun Hongsheng, whose temper was rumored to be hot-tempered in the Jianghu, was not as uncalm as the legend said. He knew the most crucial point of the problem. Now, the seven major families in Linhai City were in a delicate relationship. Even if the last-ranked Sikong family really fought to the death, even the Ding family wouldn't dare to intervene. Because there were several other families watching them like hawks. As soon as they saw an opportunity, they would pounce like mad crocodiles and tear the weakened party to shreds.
The resources in Linhai City are abundant, so the seven prominent families have cooperated more or less over the years. Sometimes, to resist invasions from outside families, they even join forces with each other. Therefore, under this ebb and flow, the interests of the seven families have long been closely intertwined.
But now, the mysterious deaths of Ou Yang Yu and Yun Bo have made all seven aristocratic families smell a conspiracy. And looking at each family, it seems like any one of them could be the murderer.
As for the Ouyang family, they directly focused their suspicion on the Ding family. Currently, only the Ding family has the capability to plan such a thing.
After a moment of silence, Yun Hongsheng took the initiative to continue: "Old Master O, could you help me analyze this Which family made their move this time Or is it an outside family that has come in"
Ouyang Wudi covered his chest and coughed lightly. Of course he wanted to know who the assailant was! Despite running the Ouyang family for so many years, he couldn't see through the true culprit behind this incident. There were no signs, no clues, and it came out of nowhere, too sudden to even react.
But he would rather believe: This incident must have been premeditated and carefully planned.
The heir apparent of the Ou-yang family was murdered, and the heir apparent of the Yun family was also killed. So who will be next
Both fell silent. Yun Hongsheng, unlike Ou Yang Wuji, couldn't keep his composure for long. He sighed and spoke: "The Ding family"
Ouyang Wudi merely chuckled lightly and did not speak.
Yun Hongsheng could only guess. Seeing Ouyang Wuji's attitude, he was a little anxious but helpless.
It's just a guess, with no evidence whatsoever. How can one's own family possibly face the behemoth that is the Ding Family
Ouyang Wuji pondered for a moment and said: "Young master of the Yun family, I can't give you an answer to this matter because I am also seeking an answer. In fact, we cannot suspect any family. Any rash action will bring disaster to the family."
Ouyang Wudi's words, however, left Yun Hongsheng stunned. He hadn't expected Old Master Ouyang to speak so much. It seemed like he wasn't giving a direct answer, yet he had already made him realize many things.
Seeing Yun Hongsheng's face contort with complex emotions, Ou Yang Wu Di sighed. He too wished to know the identity of the culprit behind this. If he were to find out, his burning rage would undoubtedly transform into a sharp sword, piercing the heart of the perpetrator. Even if that perpetrator was possibly from the Ding family
But as he had said before, without any evidence, he could not suspect anyone. Even if he had suspicions, they were only kept in his heart. At this sensitive time, it was very possible that a single action could provoke a dispute between families.
Recalling many years ago, the Lu family and the fallen Lin family, weren't they all a result of a wrong judgment by the head of the family back then
In this situation, both families should calm down.
Realizing the conversation couldn't continue any further, as Ou Yang Wudi had been vague, he left it to Yun Hongsheng to decide how much he gained. He chatted briefly with Ou Yang Wudi and then stood up to take his leave.
Just as he was about to reach the door, Ou Yang Wu Di softly called out to him, saying: "Yo Yun Jia kid, if you need help, the Ou Yang family will lend a hand."
Yun Hongsheng turned his head, a look of shock on his face as he looked at Ouyang Wudi. Seeing the latter's calm and composed demeanor, his heart was churning violently inside. In the end, he nodded slightly and said: "Thank you, Old Master."
Ouyang Wudi waved his hand, signaling that he could leave.
Would the Ou family help the Yun family when necessary Wasn't this a kind of sincerity Yun Hongsheng felt a mixture of complexity and shock, but also smelled many things. 96090, founded on 2013-9-30e his eyes, Director Su finally dared to pick up the phone and dial a number. “Hello, Principal That Ye Fan is now back at school… Yeah, it seems like he’s heading towards his classroom… Okay.”After h...
