Chapter 59 The reception banquet

Chapter 59: Reception Banquet In the evening, Long Liuju and Lian Ziluo held a banquet in the water pavilion to formally entertain Murong Qingyan, Huangfu Jue and the others.

As soon as the banquet started, Long Liuju raised his glass to Murong Qingyan, "Qingyan, thank you very much. If it weren't for you, maybe my father would--"

"Uncle Long, you don't have to be polite." Murong Qingyan nodded and said with a smile, "Not to mention the relationship between me and Li Yuan, just speaking of my identity as a doctor, it is impossible for me to remain indifferent when I meet a patient. .So you don’t have to thank me, this is all as it should be.”

After saying that, Murong Qingyan drank the wine in the wine glass in her hand.

"It's Liyuan's luck to have such a good sister like you." Lian Ziluo smiled and said, "By the way, Qingyan, how is your health now? I heard that before, because you had to treat your father, You’ve been in a coma for several days.”

"Aunt Long, don't worry." Murong Qingyan smiled and shook her head, "I have almost recovered now."

"That's good." A hint of apology appeared on Lian Ziluo's face, "If you were injured because of us, then we would really be too sorry."

"I'm fine now." Murong Qingyan smiled and shook her head. Then she glanced at the people at the table and asked curiously, "Before, I heard that Li Yuan had an older brother. How? Not here?"

"My brother is training outside now!" Long Liyuan rushed to explain, "So he is not in the family."

"That's right." Lian Ziluo also smiled and nodded, "That child Zhanfei has been practicing outside for several years. In order to allow him to practice outside with peace of mind, even if something like this happened to his father this time, we have I didn’t notify him because I was afraid that he would be distracted.”

"So that's it." Murong Qingyan said clearly, "This is also good. Going out to experience is the best way to improve your cultivation. Only by truly experiencing life and death battles can a person's greatest potential be unleashed."

"My brother said the same thing." Long Liyuan stuck out his tongue. "He said that the family was too stable and his cultivation level improved too slowly, so he decided to go out for training. What do you think? It’s really similar! However, I actually think it’s good to practice outside, and you can improve your cultivation while looking at the scenery outside.”

It can be seen that Long Liyuan also yearns for such a life.

"As a girl, it's better for you to stay in the family." Lian Ziluo said with a look of disapproval, "Your brother is a boy, so he should go out and have some adventures. As a girl, it would be better for you to stay in the family and slowly You’ve practiced well.”

After hearing Lian Ziluo's words, Long Liyuan's face flashed with sadness, but she did not continue to say anything.

The atmosphere became a little low for a moment. Long Liuju quickly raised his glass and toasted to Huangfu Jue and Zhuoyi, "Young Master Huangfu and Young Master Zhuoyi haven't toasted to you yet! I'm here to propose a toast to you. I hope you will be there in the future." You can have a good time at home.”

Huangfu Jue didn't say anything, he just raised his glass, gestured, and drank it down. The same goes for rotors.

In this regard, Long Liuju didn't say anything. He could see that Huangfu Jue and Zhuoyi were not ordinary people. These two people being able to sit at the same table with him already gave him a lot of face.

After drinking for three rounds, Murong Qingyan suddenly asked, "By the way, Uncle Long, what exactly happened to the Head of the Long family that day? Can you tell me again?"

Although he was surprised by Murong Qingyan's sudden question, Long Liuju still recalled it and said, "On that day, we three brothers were the only ones with our father. My father had been waiting for us in the study room early. . Later, we began to discuss the upcoming exchange meeting, but in the middle of the discussion, my father suddenly covered his chest and fell down. There were no signs at all before, and we were While we were discussing the matter, my father had eaten nothing, not even a sip of tea."

"I see." A hint of understanding flashed in Murong Qingyan's eyes, and then she asked, "That day, when you were discussing things, did you light any incense or something like that?"

"No," Long Liuju replied categorically after recalling it, "We were discussing things in the study that day. My father has never liked aromatherapy and the like because he thought it was too powdery."

"Qingyan, is there something wrong?" Long Liyuan on the side asked, "Or did you find something?"

Murong Qingyan did not directly answer Long Liyuan's question, but looked at Long Liuju. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Uncle Long, I wonder if you still remember what I once said? The body of Master Long's body It had been poisoned a long time ago, and the reason why it broke out at that time was because it was pulled out."

"I remember." Long Liuju nodded, and then asked with some confusion, "But what does this have to do with what happened that day?"

"Perhaps I should say this!" Murong Qingyan explained, "Soul refining is a very overbearing poison, but after that person poisoned the head of the Long family, he didn't know what method he used to hide the poison in the dragon family. The master of the family had it in his body. Then, on that day, he found a way to trigger the poison in the master of the Long family. In other words, the trigger for the poison was in that study room. At that time, the master of the Long family did not eat Everything, that is to say, the thing that drew the poison out of his body, was brought to the study by someone."

If the introduction had been in that study, the head of the Long family would have been poisoned long ago. This can only explain one problem, and that is that the trigger that caused the family leader to become poisonous was brought by one of the three brothers.

And the person who can trigger the toxicity in the body of the Long family, even if he is not the person who poisoned it, is definitely related.

"Impossible." Long Liuju retorted subconsciously, "We are brothers, no one will harm our father."

He didn't want to believe this fact no matter what. Although usually, there are often frictions between the three brothers over inheritance rights. But he absolutely did not believe that any brother would poison his father.

Therefore, when he denied it, Long Liuju seemed a little excited and obviously refused to believe it.

"I'm just telling the truth." Unlike Long Liuju's excited mood, Murong Qingyan looked much calmer, "As for what the truth is, I don't care, let alone get to the bottom of it. But, I feel, Will the person who poisoned it really stop like this?"

After hearing Murong Qingyan's words, Long Liuju fell silent immediately. Because he found that at this time, he didn't know what to say. Moreover, Murong Qingyan was just a kind reminder.

"Qingyan, I'm sorry, your Uncle Long just couldn't accept it for the moment." Lian Ziluo looked at Murong Qingyan apologetically and said, "He doesn't doubt you."

"I know." Murong Qingyan nodded without any sign of anger. She looked at Long Liuju and continued, "Uncle Long, I know that some facts are very cruel. However, escaping cannot solve the problem. If there is any problem, you may end up harming the people closest to you. I am just telling you my speculation. As for what to do in the end, it depends on your own decision. "

"Qingyan, thank you." Long Liuju forced a smile, "I will find a way to investigate this matter clearly."

Although Long Liyuan on the side did not speak, she understood the meaning. She was extremely shocked in her heart. She had thought about who in the Long family wanted to kill her grandfather, but she had never doubted the two uncles. The facts now told her that the person who wanted to kill her grandfather was actually one of the two uncles.

This reality was difficult for her to accept. After seeing the heaviness in her father's eyes, she said nothing more. Because she could see that her father should be feeling more uncomfortable than her now!

"By the way, Qingyan, grandfather's poison -" Long Liyuan asked suddenly, but then she also realized that it was not good for her to say this at this time, as if she was urging Murong Qingyan, so she quickly explained He said, "Qingyan, I'm not rushing you, it's just——"

"I know you are just worried about Master Long." Murong Qingyan said with a smile, "Although the poison of soul refining is overbearing, it is not difficult to refine the antidote. Although it takes a certain amount of time, fortunately, I have all the medicinal materials needed to refine the antidote, so you don’t have to worry about looking for them anymore.”

She knew Long Liyuan's temperament very well, so naturally she would not misunderstand him.

"That's really great." Long Liyuan had obvious joy on her face.

"Qingyan, how can this be done?" Long Liuju looked disapproving, "It's already a lot of trouble for you to refine the antidote for your father. Let's prepare the medicinal materials! What is needed? Just tell me the medicinal materials and I will have someone prepare them."

"No need." Murong Qingyan smiled, shook her head, and said, "Uncle Long, I'm not being polite to you, but because I want to get together the medicinal materials needed to refine the antidote in a short while. , I’m afraid it’s a very difficult thing. Even if the Long family is very powerful, I’m afraid it will be difficult to do it.”

"Are all the required medicinal materials precious?" Lian Ziluo frowned, "Even if they are precious medicinal materials, we will definitely find them."

"Aunt Long, it's not because of whether they are precious or not." Murong Qingyan said with a smile, "It's because some medicinal materials are now very rare and almost impossible to find. But the poison in the body of the Long family cannot wait for this. It’s a lot of time, so I’d better prepare the medicinal materials!”

"But, this -" A trace of embarrassment appeared on Long Liuju's face. He opened his mouth to say something, but was interrupted by Long Liyuan.

"Okay, father, please don't talk anymore. Since Qingyan has already taken care of the medicinal materials, why should we abandon the near and seek the far away?" Long Liyuan directly interrupted Long Liuju's words and said, "If you I’m really embarrassed, wouldn’t it be nice to prepare a generous gift for Qingyan as a thank you when the time comes?”

After hearing Long Liyuan's words, Long Liuju woke up from a dream, with a helpless smile on his face, "It seems that I got sidetracked, Qingyan, in that case, I'll trouble you."

At the same time, he had secretly decided in his heart that he must prepare a generous gift for Murong Qingyan as a thank you.

"This is what I should do."

Probably because of what was said before, the atmosphere during the rest of the dinner seemed a bit gloomy. Although Long Liuju and Lian Ziluo had smiles on their faces, the worry in their eyes never faded.

For this, Murong Qingyan did not have any blame. No one can remain calm when they know that their brother may murder their father.

The reception banquet ended early.

When the banquet ended, Long Liyuan looked at Murong Qingyan, her eyes filled with guilt. I originally planned to entertain Qingyan properly, but in the end, although the reception banquet did not end on bad terms, it was not much better either.

Faced with Long Liyuan's guilty look, Murong Qingyan smiled reassuringly to express her understanding. She could understand the mood of Long Liuju and the others, so naturally she wouldn't blame them. Moreover, if she really talked about it, she would have exposed it! If we really get to the bottom of it, she is the culprit who ruined the atmosphere.

After knowing that Murong Qingyan did not blame herself, Long Liyuan also breathed a sigh of relief.

Murong Qingyan and Huangfu Jue also returned to their rooms after the banquet.

She had been sleeping for several days, so even though it was the usual time to rest, Murong Qingyan didn't feel sleepy anymore.

She had a sudden idea, looked at Huangfu Jue, and suggested, "Jue, how about we go see the stars!"

After hearing Murong Qingyan's sudden suggestion, Huangfu Jue was stunned for a moment, but immediately nodded, "Okay."

He would never say no to anything Murong Qingyan wanted to do, let alone something as small as looking at the stars. How could he make Murong Qingyan sad!

Soon, the two of them sat on the roof.

Murong Qingyan raised her head and looked at the stars in the sky. She couldn't help but take a deep breath, and a relaxed smile appeared at the corner of her mouth. I have to say that the sky in this era is really clean, probably because there is not so much pollution! The twinkling stars in the sky are indeed beautiful.

Murong Qingyan was looking at the stars, while Huangfu Jue was looking at Murong Qingyan. When he saw the relaxed smile on Murong Qingyan's face, infinite tenderness appeared on his face.

"Jue, tell me, are the stars in the sky beautiful?" Murong Qingyan looked at Huangfu Jue and asked with a smile, "Do you like to see them?"

"It's very beautiful." Looking at Murong Qingyan's smiling face, Huangfu Jue nodded and said, "I like to see it forever."

Facing Huangfu Jue's fiery eyes, Murong Qingyan's cheeks suddenly turned as red as a ripe apple, and she scolded, "What are you talking about? I'm talking about the stars again."

"I'm talking about you." Huangfu Jue still looked at Murong Qingyan, with endless affection in his eyes, "I like to see you smiling like this, and I hope you can smile like this all your life."

"Yes." Murong Qingyan looked at Huangfu Jue, with a trace of seriousness in her eyes, "As long as you are by my side, I will always have such a smile."

Huangfu Jue has always been tolerant of her and accompanied her. She knew that the reason why she was able to walk so fast and steadily was not only due to her own efforts, but also because of Huangfu Jue's protection. Without Huangfu Jue's protection, she would never have achieved what she has today.

"I will always be by your side." Huangfu Jue put his arms around Murong Qingyan's waist and said firmly, "No matter what happens, I will never leave you."

"I believe you." There was a hint of sweetness in Murong Qingyan's smile, "Jue, actually I think this kind of life is quite good, being able to watch the stars quietly here like you."

"Yes." Huangfu Jue said softly, "As long as you want, we can look at the stars at any time like we do now."

Hearing Huangfu Jue's straightforward words, Murong Qingyan couldn't help but chuckle, "Jue, you are so cute."

She didn't like to just look at the stars like this, what she liked was to be able to be with Huangfu Jue like now. Even if they weren't looking at the stars, just two people staying quietly together, she would still feel very comfortable.

However, after hearing Murong Qingyan's words, Huangfu Jue drew several black lines on his forehead, "Yan'er, men shouldn't be described as cute."

"Pfft——" Seeing Huangfu Jue's serious appearance, Murong Qingyan couldn't help but chuckle, "Okay, I understand."

Seeing the bright smile on Murong Qingyan's face, a trace of helplessness flashed across Huangfu Jue's face. However, he didn't say anything more.

The two of them just sat on the roof and looked at the stars, saying nothing. But the atmosphere between the two was such that no one could get in.

In a courtyard on the other side, Long Liyun was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. Whenever she thought of the humiliation that Murong Qingyan had done to her during the day, she felt so angry that she couldn't let it out no matter what, and she felt extremely uncomfortable holding it in her heart.

Especially, after Murong Qingyan humiliated her, she still had no way to retaliate, because now Murong Qingyan was the one who could save her grandfather. Not only that, it was really unfair that a person like Murong Qingyan was accompanied by such an outstanding man.

Now Murong Qingyan is already so arrogant in the Long family. If she cures her grandfather, she will become the benefactor of the Long family. At that time, he might do something even more extreme. When the time comes, how can she, the third young lady of the Long family, still have a foothold?

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. At this moment, she couldn't help but think of what Long Liyu said today. As long as Murong Qingyan could not cure her grandfather, or made her grandfather's disease worse, Murong Qingyan would definitely be punished at that time.

if--

No, you absolutely cannot have such an idea. Grandfather is the pillar of the Long family. Only when grandfather gets better can the Long family be better off. Therefore, no matter what, you must not do anything detrimental to your grandfather. Moreover, under normal circumstances, her grandfather was so kind to the juniors like them, so she couldn't do anything to harm her grandfather.

Thinking of this, Long Liyun shook her head quickly, trying to throw away all the bad thoughts in her mind.

However, once such an idea appeared, it began to take root in her mind and grew crazily. Even if she wanted to remove it, there was no way.

Slowly, another thought came into her mind.

In fact, maybe Murong Qingyan couldn't cure her grandfather's disease at all? She was just pretending. If it could really be cured, why is my grandfather still unconscious now?

Or perhaps, Murong Qingyan is not the only person who can cure his grandfather's disease! Isn't the Song family also an alchemy family? As long as people from the Song family take action, they will definitely be able to cure grandfather.

After she drove Murong Qingyan away, she would ask Sister Liyu to send a message to the Song family and ask the Song family to send someone to cure her grandfather. Isn't that okay?

If this is really the case, then she doesn't really have to have killed her grandfather, right? As long as my grandfather is cured, what does it matter who cured him?

Thinking of this, Long Liyun felt like she was suddenly enlightened.

That's right, she didn't want to harm her grandfather, she just wanted to drive Murong Qingyan away. In the end, people from the Song family will definitely be able to cure their grandfather. At that time, Murong Qingyan will become a street rat, and everyone will cry out for beating him. She no longer had to have any scruples and could punish Murong Qingyan severely.

Not only that, Huangfu Jue would also leave Murong Qingyan because of this. Such an outstanding man is simply not worthy of someone like Murong Qingyan.

Thinking of this, Long Liyun couldn't help but chuckle in her heart as she seemed to have seen such a scene happen. At the same time, she also secretly made a decision, that is, no matter what, she must find a way to drive Murong Qingyan out of the Long family.

However, she didn't know that just because of one of her decisions, she would fall into endless trouble.
