Soon, the news that both Zhang Mingrui and Zhang Wenqi were killed spread throughout the capital.

For a moment, everyone was shocked!

Almost everyone in the capital knew the identities of Zhang Mingrui and Zhang Wenqi.

But it was these two big men who were killed by someone in the hospital. When such a thing happened, other wealthy families in Kyoto were also shocked, fearing that the same disaster would happen to them. For a while, everyone was in danger.

"What did you say? Both Zhang Mingrui and Zhang Wenqi died in the hospital?"

"But, don't they still have a lot of masters and bodyguards with them? How could they die so easily?"

"Who the hell did it!"

In the Zhang family's manor, Lin Chen had already left by this time.

And Zhang Mingyang also suddenly received the news that Zhang Mingrui and Zhang Wenqi were killed, and he was extremely shocked.

However, when he was sitting on the chair, he suddenly remembered what Lin Chen had said to him before he left.

"Soon, the other obstacles of the Zhang family will no longer exist, and you will become the real head of the Zhang family."

And now, those two people who had been fighting against him suddenly died.

Could it be that all of this was done by Lin Chen?

The more Zhang Mingyang thought about it, the more afraid he became.

If Lin Chen chose Zhang Mingrui instead of him, does that mean that the person who died now is not Zhang Mingrui, but himself?

Thinking of this, Zhang Mingyang couldn't help wiping the cold sweat off his brow. He was very glad that Lin Chen chose him before, and he also made the right decision!

...

Kyoto, in an extremely vast manor near the south of the city.

In the tallest and most luxurious villa in the middle, a middle-aged man over fifty years old was standing in front of the large floor-to-ceiling windows on the fifth floor, looking at the sky in the distance.

I saw that this middle-aged man was also very tall, about 1.8 meters tall, with handsome features, and he should have been a handsome guy when he was young. But her hair has turned gray a lot, and because she is very thin, she looks a little sickly.

He was looking out the window now, with a look of loneliness on his face.

"Patriarch, young master, he is in the capital right now."

At this moment, an old man wearing a butler's costume came over and said softly.

After hearing the old man's words, the mood on the middle-aged man's face changed slightly. It seemed that there was a bit of surprise and excitement, but also a bit of panic and sadness.

He turned his head and whispered softly: "Twenty years later, he finally returned to Kyoto again!"

In the eyes of the middle-aged man, there are many vicissitudes and many extremely complicated emotions.

"Twenty years ago, I personally ordered the mother and son to be driven out of Xiao's house, and also out of the capital, and threatened that they would not be allowed to return to the capital for the rest of their lives."

"And now, he has finally stepped into the land of the capital again, is it because now he has enough strength to fight against me and the Xiao family?"

"Oh no, I was wrong. In fact, with the energy he possesses, even if he wants to destroy the entire Xiao family, it is actually a piece of cake. There is nothing difficult at all."

"He is no longer the weak and helpless child he was back then..."

"Now, when he comes back to the capital, does he want to settle accounts with me and ask me to pay off the debts I owed back then?"

...

The middle-aged man closed his eyes slightly, his face was full of bitterness.

"Master..."

The old butler showed a worried look.

This middle-aged man is naturally the head of the Xiao family, one of the eight wealthy families in Kyoto, and Lin Chen's biological father, Xiao Yunshu.

He is only in his early fifties now, but more than half of the hair on his head is already gray, and his complexion is not good, and he is very thin. He looks like he has some serious illness.

The butler hesitated for a moment, and then said: "Patriarch, I feel that the young master still has deep feelings for you in his heart, not just hatred. Otherwise, with his current status and strength, even if he is It is also very easy to destroy the Xiao family, but he has never done anything to our Xiao family."

"Besides, according to the information I've inquired, the young master's visit to the capital this time is actually for other things."

"Just now, both Zhang Mingrui and Zhang Wenqi, father and son of the Zhang family, were found dead in a high-end private hospital in Kyoto. The person who did it should be the young master!"

The steward told all the information he had.

"What? You mean, Zhang Mingrui died suddenly? And it was Chen'er who did it?"

Xiao Yunshu asked in great surprise.

As a member of the eight wealthy families in Kyoto, Xiao Yunshu is no stranger to Zhang Mingrui.

After all, back then, if Zhang Mingyang had Chang Ning who advised him, Zhang Mingrui might have been the one who succeeded the head of the Zhang family.

However, Zhang Mingrui's thoughtful, cunning and cunning are difficult to deal with, which is also the common cognition of many people in the capital.

But now, Zhang Mingrui died suddenly, and his death was related to his son Lin Chen, which really surprised Xiao Yunshu.

"Why do you say that?"

Xiao Yunshu asked.

The butler said: "Because you told me to pay more attention to the young master's situation before, so I know that a lot of unpleasant things happened between the young master and the Zhang family some time ago, and the reason why the young master came this time When I came to the capital, I should have come for the Zhang family."

"Just this morning, the young master just went to the Zhang family in the capital, but shortly after he left the Zhang family, news of the death of Zhang Mingrui and his son came immediately, so I guess, it should be the young master and Zhang Mingyang of the Zhang family. What kind of agreement was reached between them, so Zhang Mingrui and his son died."

The housekeeper told all his information and guesses, which were very well-founded.

In fact, if Lin Chen was here, he would be able to recognize that the butler speaking in front of him was actually an old acquaintance.

When Lin Chen had just returned to Suzhou City from Mozhou, the person he met at the airport who invited Lin Chen back to take over the Xiao family and handed over the Stardust Group to Lin Chen was the old man in front of him. , Xiao Jin.

Xiao Jin is also an old man who is highly valued by Xiao Yunshu's side.

After Xiao Yunshu heard Xiao Jin's analysis, a solemn look appeared on his face.

If this incident of the Zhang family was really done by Lin Chen, it means that in just half a day, Lin Chen could change the situation in which the two factions of the Zhang family have been fighting for many years, and let the balance directly lean towards one of them. party.

Among the eight giants in Kyoto, everyone was able to maintain such a stable situation because the interior of each big family was not stable, and there were various factional struggles.

And if the Zhang family's factional dispute ended here, there is no doubt that the Zhang family, without the worries of internal strife, would inevitably rise a lot in overall strength, and maybe it would surpass the Xiao family because of this.

And it was a coincidence that the relationship between the Zhang family and the Xiao family was not good, and there were even frequent grievances.

So, is it a coincidence that Lin Chen helped Zhang Mingyang of the Zhang family to completely control the Zhang family, or was it aimed at targeting the Xiao family?
