Old Master Liu, contrary to his usual behavior, did not scold anyone. He just stood in the wind for a long time. When the wind was blowing so hard that people could hardly stand, he said calmly, "Don't cry. If you keep crying, others will think that something happened to our eldest wife. Shut up. Things have come to this. Whatever happens next, it's up to him."
Just let nature take its course and leave the rest to fate. What else can we do
After all, the people who can really give orders are outside.
But having said that, as the patriarch of the Liu family and the most senior elder, he still couldn't just sit there and wait for death. He thought about it and ordered Master Liu: "Take some people with you and see if it's a hook set by the imperial envoy. Try to save it if you can."
Mr. Liu replied with a "yes," but he knew in his heart that it was too late to stop it.
Old Master Liu then ordered: "Also, ask Liu Wang to take a letter to Bi Ping and ask him whether he still wants to keep this family."
Mr. Liu agreed. Seeing that Old Master Liu looked bad, he waited for Mrs. Liu to come out and told her, "Go and ask the doctor to take a good look at the old man. Don't let him get really sick from anger."
Madam Liu choked up and agreed, but couldn't help but whispered, "What did the Governor do this time? He is almost destroying our good family..."
"What's the point of saying this now?" Mr. Liu sighed, "Don't say this..."
As he was speaking, someone came from outside to report that someone had come from the Governor's Office.
The couple looked at each other, both surprised and happy.
Could it be that Liu Biping didn't really just walk away
Mr. Liu hurriedly agreed, went back to tell Old Master Liu, and waited in the house for people from the Governor's Mansion to come in.
But the person who came to the Governor's Mansion was just a servant, who was sent by the Governor's wife, Mrs. Lu, and said that he wanted to return to the old house to live for a while.
Lu had a good background, being from a prominent Shandong family, and was the wife of the governor. She had always been high and mighty in the past. Although she got along well with Madam Liu, she had never returned to the old house.
Old Master Liu was obviously a little disappointed. He frowned and looked at Master Liu, then said calmly, "Let your wife arrange it."
Mr. Liu was also disappointed. He responded and went out to tell Madam Liu. He then asked the servant, "Why did the Governor's wife want to come back to live here?"
The servant couldn't explain it clearly either.
Mr. Liu had no choice but to stop asking. After explaining things to Madam Liu, he led his people to the post station.
When he arrived, he just saw the Seventh Master and his wife coming out. Compared to their previous pale faces, their faces now looked rosy. When they saw him, they looked at each other with evasive eyes and called him "Big Brother" awkwardly.
Master Liu hummed, and asked him with an inexplicable feeling: "How is it, did you bring the person back?"
The Seventh Master and his wife nodded randomly, then walked aside with their heads down, clearly not wanting to continue talking.
Master Liu felt a little sad and ironic, so he put his hands behind his back, smiled bitterly, and let them go. Then he stood under the big tree next to the inn, watching his familiar brothers lead their children out happily and gratefully.
The butler beside him carefully looked at his face and called out "Master" in a low voice. Only then did he come back to his senses. Seeing that it was completely dark, he closed his eyes and said, "Let's go back."
It's useless.
Shen Chen gave these people a slap in the face and a sweet date, and actually made these people forget that some young men in the family were killed by Shen Chen.
The Liu family members only remembered that Liu Biping stood idly by and held all the hatred against him.
This young imperial envoy...
I don’t know what Liu Biping will do in the future.
Liu Biping, who was supposed to be in Qinghe County, was not affected by this incident at all.
Of course, it is obviously unrealistic to say that there is none at all. After all, those younger generations are all very promising young people, including nephews and cousins whom he likes and has personally supported.
But some things happen and they are done. Even if you are furious, what can you do? It is useless. Losing your temper cannot solve the problem.
Now that the Liu family has fallen into the vortex created by Shen Chen, there is no point in talking about anything else.
I can only make up for it from somewhere else.
He closed his eyes and felt a little exhausted. He calculated that he hadn't had a full night's sleep for quite a while. The night before yesterday he hadn't slept a wink because of that incident.
The wind was strong at the beach. He watched the waves hitting the shore one after another. After a while, he asked, "Is the news accurate?"
The man in black on the bridge nodded and said to him affirmatively: "Don't worry, according to your wishes, use the child to lead Princess Shouning to Shitian Village. There is no one in Shitian Village anymore. It was originally an abandoned village. Only some people who were infected with the plague are left. If Princess Shouning goes in, she will die."
Yes, Shen Chen used the blood of his people to make him feel pain, so of course he would use the lives of people Shen Chen cared about to make Shen Chen feel the same pain.
Does he think he is the only one in the world who knows how to kill a chicken to scare the monkeys
In comparison, the chips used by Shen Chen are far from enough.
Although those young men were indeed pitiful and he was indeed very anxious and distressed, but when he thought about the importance of Princess Shouning to Shen Chen, he suddenly didn't feel any pain at all.
Shen Chen values Wei An so much, and Prince Zheng and the others also value Wei An so much. Now Wei An and the child from the Ming family are dead. How is Shen Chen going to explain to Prince Zheng
Even if he could complete the task without considering the issue of offending King Zheng, could Shen Chen get past that hurdle
He was a man who valued friendship and loyalty very much. He liked Wei An and even proposed to Emperor Longqing in person. Now Wei An died in front of him, and it was because of him that she died.
He just wants to see if Shen Chen can pass this level.
He hummed, his voice cold: "In that case, let's inform the imperial envoy of the news. We can't let him be so worried. It's not a big deal for a princess like her."
He has already figured it out.
The child's identity was not officially revealed, and the Wei family never found a suitable opportunity to tell the court.
Even if Wei An died, Shen Chen couldn't openly cause trouble for him-----Wei An died because of the child from the Ming family. Shen Chen said that the Wei family was still doomed.
There's more than that. The gifts he gave to Wei An and Shen Chen were much more than that.
He glanced at another man under his command, his voice still as calm as water: "What about over there? Have you contacted the people in the mountains?"
A man still in his official uniform hastily agreed: "We've made contact, and we've given them the defense map. They know what to do."
Good to know.
