Douluo's free and unfettered sword

This banquet was hosted by Jiang Yuan as the young master to entertain several friends.

My father was away at home, and my grandma couldn't serve at the table, so there was no one else to accompany me.

Three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

The two of them were already very familiar with each other, and after a few glasses of wine, they started talking about anything.

Just listen to Xiao Wu say: "Brother Jiang Yuan, uncle is not here?"

"Yes, he is very busy. Now the Jiang family's business is getting bigger and bigger. My dad is running around the Tiandou Empire, Xingluo Empire, and Wuhun Palace. He is rarely at home for a few days throughout the year."

"Then, brother Jiang Yuan, why did you take your mother's surname instead of your father's surname?"

"Oh, well," Jiang Yuan smiled awkwardly.

"Oh, if it's not convenient to say it, forget it."

"There's nothing that can't be said. My mother died early, and there was no one else in my grandma's or grandpa's family except my mother. There were only a few heirs, but the Qin family was quite prosperous, so after my dad and grandma discussed it, we decided to Let me take my mother's surname so that I can inherit the title of earl and the Jiang family business in the future."

"So, in fact, it was my grandma's intention to come back this time. She was afraid that if I stayed in the Qin family for a long time, I would not be able to recognize my identity in the future."

"Ah, so that's it. It seems that big families also have big family troubles."

"What a big family."

Jiang Yuan laughed at himself: "Actually, it's just a trick to show to outsiders. The Qin and Jiang families have a Shiwuhun Palace and a Shitian Dou Empire. They are just hedging their bets and leaving each other with a way out. "

Xiao Wu...

"Struggles for power, scheming against each other, finding ways to protect yourself in troubled times, and grow stronger in prosperous times. I have heard these things since I was a child. Isn't this what it takes for a big family?"

"But isn't this too complicated?"

"Is it complicated? I don't think it is complicated at all."

Jiang Yuan smiled, but his smile looked so bitter: "Compared to the three brothers of the Zhuge family, who bet on three sides, one is Shiwuhundian, one is Shitiandou Empire, and one is Shixingluo Empire, our kind of behavior is not bad. Okay. Xiao Wu, what is really complicated is the human heart..."

There was silence at the dinner table, and finally Xiao Yingying changed the subject and said, "Brother, didn't you say before that this 'Earl's Mansion' was a reward from His Majesty the Emperor? Then, why did the Emperor reward you with this big mansion?"

"Oh, this is a long story to say, so just listen to me and explain it slowly..."

It turns out that the Jiang family did not have the power it has today a few decades ago. Although it was a fairly large pharmacy, it was at most one of the top ten in the entire Tiandou Empire.

At that time, my grandmother Jiang Shan was just a drugstore lady who planned to inherit her father's business. One time, she went deep into the Star Dou Forest to pick some very rare medicinal materials. Unfortunately, she encountered a human face that had about tens of thousands of years of cultivation. The demon spider was being killed, and the surrounding guards were running away. Jiang Shan was about to lose her life. At this desperate moment, a man appeared.

This person is Jiang Yuan's grandfather, Dugu Xin.

He used his soul skills to help his grandma Jiang Shan kill the human-faced demon spider and save her life.

But Duguxin was only a level 56 soul king at that time, not too strong. During the fight, he was unfortunately injured by the blade of the demon spider's leg. He was poisoned and passed out not long after.

Fortunately, Dugu Xin's Wuhun Biphosphorus Snake Emperor itself has high anti-toxicity. In addition, Jiang Shan is the eldest daughter of a medicine shop and has good medical knowledge. After doing emergency treatment for Dugu Xin, she brought him back. Healing in your own home.

A relationship began. While being taken care of by Jiang Shan, the two secretly fell in love. One felt that Shan was attentive and considerate.One feels that brother Xin is brave and very safe.What's more, they saved each other's lives.

Jiang Shan's family did not object, not only because Dugu Xin was a level 56 soul king with great promise, but more importantly, Dugu Xin was a very capable person and a miraculous doctor. The old men of the Jiang family all admired themselves for being like Buddhas.

So after Dugu Xin recovered from his injuries, he married Jiang Shan as his wife under the control of the old man. However, as a price, Dugu Xin was considered a wife.

After marriage, the two had a daughter. Jiang Shan gave her a nice herbal name - Jiang Ziling, hoping that her daughter would inherit her parents' medical skills and save people in the future.

At that time, the Jiang family had made great progress under the leadership of grandfather Dugu Xin. Dugu Xin was a miracle doctor in the world. He had cured many difficult and complicated diseases for many powerful families in the Tiandou Empire. He was well-known throughout the Tiandou Empire.

Those powerful people who were cured naturally reciprocated, opened the door to convenience, and wanted to maintain this relationship. After all, who dares to say that they can never get sick?

Even if you don’t get sick, who can guarantee that your family won’t get sick?

The connections of a miracle doctor are beyond imagination.

The Jiang family has risen rapidly. In the past ten years, it has risen from being only in the top ten to the top three, and has quickly opened several branches.

Later, as the reputation of the Jiang family spread, some large families wanted to marry with them and form a powerful alliance.

This is the case with the Qin family.

One was the second-ranked weapon-refining family at the time, and the other was the top three medicine-refining family. The combination of the two is not difficult to understand. In addition, the residences of my father and mother were not far away at the time, and they were considered childhood sweethearts since they were young. There is also an emotional basis, but it is not entirely a political marriage.

Later, Qin Chuan and Jiang Ziling got married, and Dugu Xin left the family business to Qin Chuan, while he specialized in the art of refining elixirs and medicine.

Including the Jiang family's secret hemostatic powder and bruise medicine, which were developed at that time.

Later, there was the bizarre poisoning incident in the palace.

In the Tiandou Empire's palace, just as Emperor Xue Ye was planning to decide on a successor to the throne, the second prince Xue Luochuan and the third prince Xue Haizang died mysteriously one after another. In the end, even the youngest son Xue Beng, who was only seven years old at the time, was seriously ill with a strange poison.

All the imperial doctors were helpless and helpless, and Emperor Xueye became increasingly haggard. Finally, under the introduction of the royal guest Dugu Bo, he found Mr. Duguxin, who lived in seclusion at home and studied pharmacology.

Duguxin was invited to the palace and treated Prince Xuebeng. However, after diagnosis, Duguxin discovered that the poison the fourth prince was poisoned did not belong to any kind in the world today. Instead, it was like the poison of a soul master's martial spirit. This kind of poison It's quite troublesome. If it weren't for the soul master himself to detoxify it, then this poison would be incurable.

However, doctors are benevolent, and there is no reason for doctors to ignore death. What's more, any person who claims to be a miracle doctor will treat difficult and complicated diseases like a drug addict encountering drugs. Do your own thing.

So Dugu Xin stayed in the palace for more than a month, constantly adjusting and testing poisons, making observations, and simulating detoxification methods. Finally, he used the soul bones of soul beasts to grind powder, bear gallbladder, snake gallbladder, earth dragon, seahorse, and alabaster ointment. , royal jelly, Wulingzhi, Mochizuki Sand and other drugs were mixed together, and finally Prince Xue Beng was revived bit by bit.

Of course, such palace secrets must not be told to outsiders. Dugu Xin was asked to keep it secret. Dugu Xin also vaguely heard that Prince Xue Beng's poisoning might involve the royal family's fight for the heir, so he did not dare to say anything more.

Although this matter cannot be widely publicized as an advertisement, at least those important officials in the court must know what they should know.

The imperial court also reciprocated the favor and granted the Jiang family the title of 'Earl'. Not only did it reward the 'Earl's Mansion', it also made Dugu Xin a guest physician, who could bring his license to the palace at any time. Not only that, but also the medicinal materials business between the palace and the army. All of them were handed over to the Jiang family.

After this incident, the Jiang family became the largest medicinal herb dealer in the Tiandou Empire, with a great reputation.

Of course, the Jiang family also did very well. The hemostatic powder and bruise medicine they invented became very popular as soon as they were launched on the market. Since then, the level of medical treatment in the palace has also been significantly higher.

It's a pity that good people don't live long. Jiang Yuan's grandfather was attacked by a wave of spirit beasts when he went out to collect medicine, and his body was completely destroyed.

Jiang Yuan's father Qin Chuan inherited the title of earl passed down from his grandfather. Over the years, as a son-in-law, he has managed the Jiang family in order and prospered.

In addition, in the past few years, he had collected all the medicines refined by Jiang Yuan and put them in the soul guide, and brought them back to the Jiang family during the Chinese New Year. These medicines became very popular as soon as they were put on the market and were loved by consumers. As a result, the Jiang family's status has increased rather than declined in the past few years. I heard that my father has now taken over the business of Wuhun Palace and Xingluo Empire.

However, how can my father do business? It can only be said that he is a trustee.

After all, he was just the son-in-law of his wife, whose surname was Qin, not Jiang. Ever since Jiang Yuan's mother died in childbirth, Jiang Yuan had become the next generation head of the Jiang family recognized by his grandma.

But now in the Jiang family, grandma is the real head of the family behind the scenes.

After listening to the story told by Jiang Yuan, Yingying, Tang San, and Xiao Wu at the table couldn't help but look at each other and said, "Oh, that's it!"
