The Rise Of The Tamer Family

Chapter 27

Under the lead of the family guards, Chen Yang and the others arrived at the Li family’s reception hall.

Seeing Li Ke sitting at the head of the table, Chen Yang cupped his hands and said with a smile, “Chen Yang greets Uncle Li.”

Hearing Chen Yang address him so intimately, Li Ke frowned. “Family Head Chen is also the head of the family. There’s no need to call me that. Just call me Family Head Li.”

“That kid dares to address Family Head Li like that.” Chen Yang did not care about Li Ke’s attitude at all and continued with a smile, “Family Head Li, do you know why we’re here?”

For what? Naturally, it was to find external help for the Chen family.

Although that was what Li Ke thought, it couldn’t possibly show on his face. “Please sit down.”

After Chen Yang and the others sat down, Li Ke pretended to be puzzled. “I really don’t know why Family Head Chen came to my Li family.”

After taking a sip of the tea served by the Li family’s servant, Chen Yang continued to smile at Li Ke. “Family Head Li, do you know that your Li family is in trouble?”

“The Li family is in trouble?”

Li Ke was stunned by Chen Yang’s words. He smiled in disbelief and said, “I want to know why my Li family is in trouble.”

“Family Head Li, you must know about the marriage alliance between the three great clans, right? The purpose of these three great clans is to deal with the Li family,” Chen Yang said.

When Li Ke heard this, he heaved a sigh of relief. He really thought that the Li family was in danger. In the end, it was just the Chen family wanting to form an alliance.

“Family Head Chen, you must be joking. Our Li family has no grudges with the three great families. What does their alliance have to do with our Li family?”

“And if I’m not wrong, these three families are probably dealing with your Chen family. Family Head Chen, to form an alliance, one has to show sincerity. Don’t deceive others with words.”

Li Ke picked up his tea and took a leisurely sip. Then, he smiled at Chen Yang. “Family Head Chen, do you think I’m right?”

“Hahaha, Family Head Li is really wise. You saw through my intentions at a glance. However, Family Head Li, the alliance is real, but for the sake of the Li family, it’s not fake.” Chen Yang smiled.

“Oh?” Li Ke put down the teacup in his hand. “Then I would like to ask Family Head Chen for his opinion.”

“Again, the purpose of the Horizontal Alliance of the three aristocratic families is to deal with the families on the north and south.”

“Among them, my Chen family and your Li family have the most contact with the three great families.”

“Of course, they will definitely deal with my Chen family first. But if my Chen family is destroyed, then the next one to suffer will be your Li family.”

Li Ke frowned and pondered Chen Yang’s words. Although he suspected that these words were just trying to implicate the Li family, it was not unreasonable.

If the Chen family could not hold on, the Li family, which had the most contact with the three major forces, would definitely be targeted.

Immediately, Li Ke became interested in Chen Yang’s words. “Family Head Chen, continue.”

When Chen Yang saw this, he knew that Li Ke was about to fall into the trap. He quickly struck while the iron was hot. “Now that our families are like lips and teeth, if the lips are lost, who will help the teeth to resist the cold wind?”

“With the lips gone, there is no one to help the teeth against the cold wind…”

The more Li Ke thought about it, the more he felt that Chen Yang’s words were especially interesting. Simple words, and yet they contained great principles.

Li Ke couldn’t help but praise, “I didn’t expect Family Head Chen to understand the principles of the world so well.”

“Family Head Li, you flatter me. This is just an open matter. I only used simple words to explain it.” Chen Yang smiled.

“Then, Family Head Chen, what should we do next?” Li Ke asked.

Chen Yang understood that Li Ke had completely fallen into it.

Chen Yang immediately picked up his teacup again and sipped his tea like Li Ke. “Family Head Li, if they can do a Horizontal Alliance, we can naturally do a Vertical Alliance.”

“Vertical Alliance? What does that mean?” Li Ke was confused. Where did Chen Yang get these words from? He was confused.

“To put it bluntly, this so-called alliance is an alliance between the aristocratic families of the north and south to resist the three great aristocratic families of east and west.”

“Of course, there can be many changes. For example, the Mo family and the Li family are adjacent to each other. Logically speaking, they shouldn’t be in the same range.”

“But the Mo family is in the north of the Gongsun family, and this situation meets the requirements of the alliance. To put it bluntly, as long as we can pressure the three great families from the north and south, they can be roped in.”

After saying that, Chen Yang picked up his teacup again and glanced at Li Ke silently.

‘You’re confused, aren’t you? That’s right. How can you understand thousands of years of wisdom in a short time?’

For a moment, Li Ke shook his head. “Although I’m not sure about the nature of your Vertical Alliance.”

“But after thinking about it carefully, the method of exerting pressure on an aristocratic family from the north and south is indeed a better way.”

“Then, Family Head Chen, how exactly does the operation go?”

“How?” Chen Yang’s eyes revealed a look of disdain. “Let’s pressure the weakest Feng family first and make use of the conflict between the Feng and Liu families. That will definitely cause a gap in the alliance.”

“Then, we’ll deal with the strongest Gongsun family and disintegrate the alliance.”

“As for the Liu family, when they see that the situation is bad, they will naturally side with us.”

After hearing Chen Yang’s plan, Li Ke felt a chill run down his spine and cold sweat broke out.

This was too terrifying. This child was so young, but he could make such a plan.

And according to the facts, the direction of the situation was very likely to be as Chen Yang had said.

For a moment, Li Ke was enlightened. Chen Yang, who was in front of him, was like a wise man who had planned everything.

With a word, thousands of forces collapsed.

He didn’t dare to imagine how far the Chen family would go under Chen Yang’s leadership. No, he had to form an alliance with the Chen family no matter what.

“Phew!” Li Ke suppressed the throbbing in his heart and asked with a smile, “Then how does Family Head Chen plan to form an alliance?”

“Marriage.”

“Marriage?” Li Ke looked troubled. “Family Head Chen, you know about Ancestor Xue’s situation as well. I’m afraid marriage…”

Li Ke did not finish his sentence, but his meaning was obvious. With Ancestor Xue around, a marriage alliance was basically impossible.

When Chen Yang saw this, he narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Ke. “Family Head Li, don’t worry. As long as you invite Ancestor Xue out, I will persuade her.”

Seeing the confidence on Chen Yang’s face, Li Ke felt more confident.

That’s right. If this kid was so eloquent, he might be able to convince Ancestor Xue to allow the marriage alliance.

Immediately, Li Ke sent someone to invite Ancestor Xue.

After everyone waited, a beautiful woman in a blue shirt and a phoenix crown walked over.

She exuded a noble aura with every single movement.

“Family Head Chen, I heard that you want to have a marriage alliance with the Li Family? Let me tell you, an alliance is fine, but a marriage alliance is definitely impossible!” A silver bell-like voice came out of Ancestor Xue’s mouth.
