"Oh, then tell Father about it."

"The reason for my son's suffering is because I have been arrogant and despotic all day, which is why I ended up in jail."

"Your son, from the beginning, I always believed that in the small lands of the Windy City, I relied on the influence of the Qin family and you, father, to provoke no one. He didn't know that there was a mountain outside the mountain, and there was a person outside the mountain. It was a good chance that this tribulation would occur. I hate the Young City Lord, but I'm very grateful to him. "

"I am very pleased that my son has such a realization. But today, I have to tell you something, so don't be too surprised. "

"The reason why my Qin family was able to gain a foothold in the Windy City within ten years is because of the might of the general."

"The relationship between our Qin family and the City Lord's Mansion is not as simple as it appears to be. Your father, I, was one of the sergeants under the general's command back then.

"If it wasn't for this layer of relationship, not to mention you, even your father would have lost his head long ago."

"So, don't hate the young city lord anymore. Right now, he wants to establish his might, and as the direct descendant, not only did you not help him, you even dared to go against the wind and commit crimes. Although I don't know what the general's intentions are, it's definitely a good idea to follow him. "

"Father, you mean our Qin family and the City Lord's Mansion are all clean? Then I will have to take this beating for nothing."

No wonder other than the first day, when I was beaten to a pulp, I didn't suffer much torture when I was locked up. However, my food wasn't too good. Old Qin thought like this.

"Not only will this be a waste of time, you will also have to come visit us in a few days to beg for forgiveness. I hope the young city lord can forgive you." If it's really no good, then just give up on this old face of mine. "

"But I've already written to brother, nothing will happen to him!"

"No, your brother already knew about the relationship between the Qin family and the City Lord's Mansion. He only thought you were messing around."

"So I'm the only one who doesn't know about father …"

"Other than your brother and me, no one else in our Qin family knows about this. The general has instructed us to act a little more lifelike." Qin Feng pinched the beard on his face.

"Father, I feel wronged."

"Don't be wronged, the young master of the Liu family was killed outside the city by the young city lord. If it wasn't for the relationship between our Qin family and the general's mansion, you would have already left."

"It can't be, Young City Lord is so fierce." Qin Shou could not help but feel a chill run down his spine.

"Father, I will go and ask for punishment today."

"Don't worry, the Liu family sent an invitation letter to me, so you can take my place and see the world."

"Don't. Father, my body is so weak. I'm afraid the Mayor's Palace and the Liu Family have irreconcilable enmity. I'm afraid that the Young City Lord will kill me!" Qin Shou really suspected that the person in front of him was his biological father.

"I, your father, am giving you a chance to enter into the Young City Lord's field of vision. Go and perform for a bit, and it would be best if you could spout a few fierce words. Recently, there have been many strangers in the city. I believe that the City Lord's Mansion has certainly taken action. "

"Our Qin family will cooperate with the City Lord's Mansion to act out a big show, and you, as the model for being bullied, will go and express your dissatisfaction towards the City Lord's Mansion, and at the same time show goodwill to the Liu family. It would be best if he were to pass out in the middle of his sentence. That would be the most realistic. Your father believes in you, you can do it! "

Second Brother Qin suddenly felt that there was a good chance for him to live. Father isn't completely disappointed in me, but I, Qin Er, am still very useful.

"Father, since you said so, your son will live up to your expectations." Qin Shou took the invitation from his father and respectfully exited the inner hall. Without even drinking a sip of water, he got into the carriage with the support of a servant.

However, at this time, the carriage was headed towards the Liu Estate.

"..."

At night, the Liu Clan was brightly lit, and the bustling of the maidservants entering and exiting the courtyard had increased the brilliance of the night.

Most of the families were looking and hesitating, and the Mayor's mansion and the Liu family were huge beings they could not afford to offend. If they accidentally stood in the wrong line, they would be doomed forever.

Thus, in such a short period of time, someone managed to come up with the Nine Secret Words, "Do not provoke, do not choose, do not stand on the side". In such a short period of time, it had spread to every family in the Windy City.

Afterwards, many clans treated it as a precious treasure and pursued this path.

After some people received the invitation, they didn't dare to go, but they were too embarrassed to go, so they thought of a compromise, "Although I'm not going, my gift has been delivered. I'm sure your Liu family won't blame us."

Just like how we don't get involved with you, we should give you face or give you a hand, not a smiley face.

Therefore, many families sent servants to deliver the gifts to the Liu family, explaining why they didn't go.

There were many outbreaks of illness and accidental deaths of family members in the city. To them, being the boss had nothing to do with them, so they might as well sit back and watch the fight. Wouldn't it be better to be the fisherman?

Therefore, although the Liu Family was filled with friends and was hesitant in front of the door, most of the people who came to congratulate them were people sent by their family to deliver gifts, as well as subordinate families related to the life and death of their Liu Family.

At least, from the looks of it, not a single person with real power had appeared. They had all sent their subordinates to present the gifts.

The subordinate who had come to deliver the gift explained that my master had suddenly fallen ill and was lying in bed (the father of my uncle and grandfather's nephew's brother-in-law had left in his car), unable to attend the dinner party. However, under the condition of being seriously ill (the death of an elder), my family's patriarch still insisted on choosing a gift and sending it to the Liu family. He begged the Liu family's patriarch not to blame the gift, and when my family's master's health improved (he finished observing the filial piety), he would personally pay a visit.

At the beginning, when Chief Steward Liu had received the report, he did not pay too much attention to it. This was because this situation was not controlled by anyone, so the Liu Estate naturally would not care.

But when dozens of families were in a similar situation, Housekeeper Hua knew that this wasn't something he could handle.

He hurriedly ran to the inner hall to report this matter to the Old Master.

"Uncle Ye, something has happened. Most of the large and small families that we invited only sent gifts, but did not send anyone to attend the banquet. They all replied to our Liu Manor with the same reason." Housekeeper Hua respectfully reported to the old servant standing at the entrance of the inner hall.

The old servant's expression changed, "Wait here, I'll report to the old master."

After a while, the old servant came out of his room, "Little Hua, Master wants you to come in."

Opening the door, Housekeeper Hua respectfully reported to the Old Master. At this moment, the Liu family's patriarch stood to one side.

After hearing Steward Hua's report, the boss was furious.

"Father, they really don't put our Liu family in their eyes. They just gave us a light gift. What do they care about? Our Liu family will definitely teach them a lesson."
