Zhuo Wenhou's words undoubtedly put Shen Ji on the fire, which should not be the case and should not be.
Fang Xu frowned, glanced sideways at Shen Ji, met his eyes, and shook his head slightly.
Shen Ji pursed his thin lips and remained silent.
"Aji..." Marquis Zhuo Wen didn't expect him to be so cold-blooded, and his face turned a little pale, "Whatever, it's all my parents owe you. I will kneel down and beg you to forgive me."
Having said that, Marquis Zhuo Wen was about to kneel down, but was stopped by the Yue family beside him.
"Father!" Yue Kui's face was extremely ugly. He held Zhuo Wenhou's hand and said in a deep voice, "Throughout the ages, how can any parent kneel down to their children?"
"That's right, who can bear the burden of you, old man, kneeling down?" Mr. Nie was afraid that the world would not be in chaos, so he slowly added fuel to the fire, "If you do this, my brother's life will be shortened."
Madam Zhen stopped in front of him, her tears streaming uncontrollably, "Master, even if Aji has resentment in his heart, I should kneel down..."
Zhuo Wenhou burst into tears, shook his head and sighed, "My son can't calm down his anger. It's my fault. It's my fault. It's up to me to admit my mistake."
"Aji!" Mrs. Zhen turned to look at him with a desperate expression, "Do you have to force your father to come here? You..."
"I have no father and no mother."
Zhen's words were stuck in mid-air, neither swallowing nor spitting out.
Shen Ji lowered his eyes and looked at the farce at the steps with cold eyes, feeling tired, "Since you had your adopted son, have you ever found any trace of me?"
"There is only one county between Beijing and Hulong, but there are twenty-eight years between me and my parents."
"Now that I'm in power, you guys come to my door again and say some unreasonable things." Shen Ji sneered, looking at a few people with a faint smile, "Don't you think it's ridiculous?"
"I..." Mrs. Zhen paused, her eyes evasive, "Aji, my parents will try their best to make it up to you in the future, really!"
Shen Ji only found it funny and asked in a deep voice, "How to make up for it?"
Zhen gritted her teeth and subconsciously looked at Marquis Zhuo Wen aside.
Zhuo Wenhou secretly glared at her with a worried expression.
Zhen's body trembled and her eyes became firmer, "My child, now that you have become a minister, you have to be busy both inside and outside. It is inevitable that you will be in a hurry."
"Why not..." Mrs. Zhen bit her lip, hesitation flashed across her face, but it was fleeting, "Why not introduce your second brother to the court and stay with you to share your worries."
"That's right!" After hearing what her mother-in-law said, Mrs. Nie's eyes lit up and she hurriedly responded, "Although the house that brother lives in is not big, it definitely has a lot of trivial matters. I can give half of the housekeeping rights to me. It doesn’t matter if there are more troubles, the main thing is to let my sister-in-law rest.”
The Yue family's words fell to the ground, and Fang Xu couldn't help laughing.
The crisp laughter shocked several people. The Yue family looked at each other, wondering why Fang Xu could laugh.
"You...why are you laughing?" When she smiled, Nie's aura weakened, "But what did I say wrong?"
"Of course what my sister said is right." Fang Xu raised his hand to block the smile on his lips and said softly, "This house is too small and not worthy of my sister's temperament. Why don't I pay for it for you in the center of the West City?" How about a three-in-three big house?"
Mrs. Nie was overjoyed and responded hurriedly, "That's good! My sister-in-law knows how to care for people."
Fang Xu pursed his lips and chuckled, as if he was very affectionate with her, "Now that we have a house, we must have good land. I will go to the government office early tomorrow morning and transfer all the ten shops under my name to my sister's name."
"I will give my sister ten thousand acres of fertile land. When the time is right, I can snatch the golden throne from the one above to my second brother, and also put the dragon robe on Marquis Zhuo Wen, okay?"
Hearing this, Shen Ji raised his eyebrows, with a hint of smile in his eyes.
Mr. Nie was frightened. He looked at the smiling face of the woman above and murmured, "You... what are you talking about?"
"You also know it's nonsense?"
Hearing this, the smile on Fang Xu's face suddenly cooled down, and he raised his voice and asked, "As soon as the upper and lower lips touched, I wanted to steal most of Shen Ji's worth. How can there be such a beautiful thing in the world!"
"You have been blinded by lard. All you can see is your adopted son. It is enough to disdain your parents and children. Now you are rushing to come together to make people dislike you. It is simply hateful!"
"You...you..." Mrs. Zhen pointed at her, holding back for a long time but unable to say a complete sentence.
"I came all the way to the capital, saying that I wanted Shen Ji to recognize his ancestors and return to his clan, but in fact he was just to plan a future for my adopted son. It's not what it looks like, it's extremely hypocritical."
Fang Xu looked at Yue Kui who was huddled aside with cold eyes, not even daring to express his anger, and snorted softly, "You are obviously a pheasant, but you always feel that you are a phoenix. How can a mediocre person deserve to work beside Shangshu Ling?" ?”
Fang Xu said one sentence after another, directly stepping on the Yue family's face and rubbing it under his feet.
Zhuo Wenhou's face darkened, and he gritted his teeth and asked, "I thought you were Hui Zhilan Xin before, but I misjudged you. As an elder, why do you have the right to speak?"
After saying that, Marquis Zhuo Wen turned to look at Shen Ji, frowned and asked, "Aji, you actually asked a woman to ride on your head and be your master? Who has the final say in this family!"
The smile on Shen Ji's lips was light and faint, and he said casually, "I'm sorry, I really don't have the final say in the family."
Zhuo Wenhou was stunned, his eyes widened, and he looked at him in disbelief, "You..."
Seeing that both her parents-in-law were defeated, Mrs. Nie jumped up angrily, pointed at the two of them and shouted, "It's a big deal. If your biological parents come to find you, you have to take care of them in your old age and fulfill your filial piety! Even if it causes trouble in the government, we will be responsible!" "
"We really can't do enough of this filial piety." Fang Xu curled his lips and said softly, "If you have the ability, go ahead and sue. Let's see if the government arrests you or me."
Marquis Zhuo Wen became anxious and called out, "Aji..."
"Marquis Zhuo Wen." Shen Ji looked at him, his expression as usual, and he had long since lost the cautiousness of that day, "I am so kind to you today, not because of the so-called blood relationship, but because you still have a false reputation, so it is inconvenient to send someone. Drive away.”
"If Zhuo Wenhou is still wise, he can lead his family and leave by himself. Don't let your reputation be ruined."
"You..." Zhuo Wenhou couldn't believe it and murmured, "You use your official position to pressure me? I am your biological father!"
"So what?" Shen Ji seemed to have heard something funny and curled his lips, "Yue Kui has been with you for more than twenty years. You loved him and forgot me. I don't blame or complain, but you don't. You should never come here to provoke me and plot against me."
"If you come again, don't blame me for turning against you."
When saying this, Shen Ji stared at Yue Kui closely, the anger in his eyes not concealed at all.
Yue Kui panicked and quickly turned away, not daring to look at him again.
"Aji..."
Zhen was about to say something more, but Marquis Zhuo Wen grabbed her wrist forcefully and pulled her away from Shen's house.
Yue Kui quickly followed. Nie saw the duck flying away, stamped his feet, and chased after it.
Looking at the backs of the four people, Shen Ji's eyes darkened and he said calmly, "They won't give up before they achieve their goal. They will definitely think of ways to come back."
Fang Xu chuckled, "Then let's see who is faster with their brains or Baiji's sword."
