After the words fell, the speed of the three people increased again, and they swept down the mountain at an extremely fast speed.
...
In a secret room of the Kong family, the two brothers of the Kong family were sitting face to face with a middle-aged man.
"Father, why did you call us two brothers here in the middle of the night?"
Kong Yixuan, the eldest son of the Kong family, yawned and asked.
It's not that Kong Yixuan is used to going to bed early, but because he drank a lot of wine with his friends at night and now is the time to feel sleepy.
The person sitting opposite the two brothers is the current head of the Kong family, Kong Qingyun.
"Humph! I just accompanied your grandfather out for a while, and you made the Kong family look like this!"
Kong Qingyun snorted coldly, with an angry look on his face.
Hearing this, Kong Yixuan showed a look of doubt and asked curiously: "What happened to the Kong family? Aren't they all the same as before?"
"Trash! Why did I give birth to a useless son like you!"
Upon hearing his words, Kong Qingyun jumped up angrily and roared angrily.
On the other hand, Kong Yiyun sighed softly and said in a deep voice: "Father, I was opposed to this marriage between me and Wan Qingqiu from the beginning."
"You and grandpa insisted on agreeing that the Kong family could use the power of the Wan family to reach a higher level."
"Now the powerful men of the Wan family have been placed in various important positions in the Kong family by Wan Qingqiu for various reasons. Since you and grandpa are not here, how can we stop this?"
Kong Yixuan on the side also seemed to have sobered up, with a flash of anger in his eyes.
"Wan Qingqiu, this damn woman, I thought she was not a good person from the beginning!"
"We have been engaged to Yiyun for so long, and this girl is still sleeping in a separate room with Yiyun. This doesn't look like a couple who are about to get married!"
"Besides, those warriors from the Wan family are even more outrageous! Since your father and grandpa are not at home, they use Wan Qingqiu's name to do whatever they want in my Kong family!"
Kong Yixuan said with a gloomy look on his face.
Looking at his two sons, the anger in Kong Qingyun's eyes slowly dissipated.
Then he sighed softly and said slowly: "The engagement between Yiyun and Wan Qingqiu was made by your grandfather and I as a last resort."
"The eight major families in Beicheng seem to be prosperous and harmonious, but in fact, each family has its own hidden agenda."
"Although my Kong family ranks only behind the top four among the eight major families, only we know the current situation of the Kong family best... If we weren't forced to do so, how could we agree to let Wan Qingqiu go?"
That woman entered the Kong family."
Hearing this, Kong Yixuan and Kong Yiyun looked at each other silently, both seeing the helpless look in each other's eyes.
How could the two brothers not know what Kong Qingyun said?
In the eyes of outsiders, the Kong family is one of the eight major families in Beicheng and one of the behemoths in Beicheng.
But outsiders don't know that the strength of the Kong family has been declining year by year in recent years.
If the eight major families were to be ranked again, I'm afraid the Kong family's ranking would fall directly to the last place.
Naturally, the weakness of the Kong family cannot be hidden from the other seven families that are also among the eight major families.
It's just that the Shangsi Family has never been interested in things like internal fighting among the eight major families, so the Shangsijia has never had any thoughts about the Kong family.
But if the upper four families are like this, how can the other three of the lower four families be like this?
