Until the evening, I didn't see Mr. Qiu return home. The little guy in front of the door reported: "Mr. Qiu has returned to the house, and he is waiting for the two of you to go inside." ”

In this way, Liu Huo and Wang Fatzi finally walked into the Qiu Mansion.

When Liu Huo and Wang Fatzi walked into the Zou Mansion, Mr. Zou was already waiting for two people in the hall. After seeing Liu Huo and Wang Fatzi come in, Mr. Qiu hurriedly stood up to greet him: "Let the city lord and Mr. Liu wait for me outside for a day, I really don't want to go" It was our unauthorized to come to the door. It's us who bother. Liu Huo said politely.

"Sit down, sit down! Come on, serve tea. After Mr. Qiu introduced Liu Huo and the others into the house, he let the two of them sit down.

"I don't know why the two of you are looking for the old man today?" Mr. Qiu said.

Liu Huo and Wang Fatzi glanced at each other, Wang Fatzi swallowed a sip of tea and said, "The two of us are here today, and we still hope that the old gentleman can come out." Now that I have taken over Zongyuan City, I need someone like Mr. Lao who is highly respected and experienced to help me take charge. ”

"Didn't I make it clear yesterday that I would continue to serve? Why did the city lord come to the door to ask? Mr. Qiu said with a smile.

"I know that Old Mr. Qiu still cares about the people of Zongyuan City, otherwise he wouldn't have asked you for anything. You are all enthusiastic to help, so I still want to formally ask the old gentleman today, and then go out of the mountain to help me, a careless child! Wang Fatzi put himself very low and said.

"The city lord said with a smile, the Mr. Liu behind you is not a single order, and the strategy is all in his own hands. How do you behave like a careless child? Sometimes I wonder, is Mr. Liu really a child of this age? It's not like it's like a scheming! Mr. Qiu did not directly answer Wang Fatzi's question, but asked rhetorically.

Liu Huo and Wang Fatzi glanced at each other.

Old Mr. Qiu continued: "The secret book that let the Zou City Lord unite several sects regardless of the danger was also shown to the Zou City Lord, right?" Now he has been giving advice to the city lord in the back, I don't know what Mr. Liu is trying to do? ”

Mr. Qiu looked at Liu Huo, and Liu Huo also stared at him.

"What do you think I am trying to do, old man?" Liu Huo asked rhetorically.

"I can't understand Mr. Liu's handwriting. Please also ask Mr. Liu to solve your doubts! Mr. Qiu said.

"What I do, I can't tell Mr. Qiu in detail. But I can tell the old gentleman that what I am trying to do does not conflict with the interests of Zong Yuancheng. I think Mr. Qiu also knows that I have no harm to Zong Yuancheng. Otherwise, we would have been exposed a long time ago, and we would not have helped the city lord to sit in the position of the city lord! Liu Huo looked at Wang Fatzi and said.

Mr. Qiu, pondered for a moment and nodded.

Liu Huo continued: "And I helped Wang Fatzi with this matter. I simply want to help him, this is the friendship between me and Wang Fatzi. I help Wang Fatzi, no matter what I have or the friendship between the two of us, there is no conflict. Moreover, please rest assured that in the future, I will not do anything to hurt Zong Yuancheng. ”

Mr. Qiu, sitting on the top, muttered and did not speak.

"Since Mr. Qiu is concerned about me, it means that he still cares about the future of Zong Yuancheng. Then why don't you come out and do something more for the people of Zongyuan City? Liu Huo said.

"I heard the little ones say that you left Zongyuan City in a fit of anger after a quarrel with Zou Tianfeng, but now Zou Tian is no longer there. Why did the old gentleman refuse to go out of the mountain? Liu Huo asked again.

"Do you know what I was arguing with Zou Tianfeng for?" Mr. Qiu asked.

Liu Huo didn't hide it, he deliberately inquired about Mr. Qiu's past: "I inquired about the little guy and said that it was because of the New Deal that Mr. Qiu and Zou Tianfeng parted ways." ”

"Yes, in that case, my father was also harmed by Zou Tianfeng because he opposed Zou Tianfeng's new policy, we are the same people!" Wang Fatzi said.

"I proposed the new deal back then!" Mr. Qiu said suddenly.

Liu Huo and Wang Fatzi looked at Mr. Qiu in shock.

Mr. Qiu continued: "According to the situation in Zong Yuancheng back then, it was the new policy I proposed. But I didn't expect that Zou Tianfeng would murder Deputy City Lord Yu because of this matter. It was because of this incident that I suddenly discovered that Zou Tianfeng was a person with the heart of a tiger and a wolf, and I withdrew from Zongyuan City in order to protect myself. ”

"Actually, I was in the house when you came in the morning. I've been struggling with whether to see you or not, but I didn't expect your faith to be so tenacious, so I still plan to meet you and explain things clearly to you. Actually, I know that you suddenly investigated my affairs last night. Deputy City Lord Wang died because of me, and I can't let go of this matter, so I have no way to go to Zongyuan City to report on my work! ”

Wang Fatzi was silent all the time, and suddenly raised his head and said, "This matter has nothing to do with you, Mr. Qiu, it is normal for political discord." It was Zou Tianfeng's wolf ambition that killed my father, and this matter has nothing to do with Mr. Qiu! ”

"This has been in my mind for so many years, and it has lingered. I will never set foot in Zongyuan City, I don't want to cause another tragedy to your Wang family! Mr. Qiu said with a trembling voice.

The fat man was silent for a few minutes, then stood up and walked to the center of the hall. He bowed deeply to Mr. Qiu again.

Then he said: "Once again, I implore the old gentleman to come out of the mountain, assist us and others, put things right, and seek the well-being of the people of Zongyuan City!" ”

"You, don't you blame me?" Mr. Qiu stretched out his trembling hand and pointed at Wang Fatzi and said.

"This matter was done by Zou Tianfeng, and it has nothing to do with the old gentleman. Moreover, I can't protect this matter, the old gentleman's policy at that time made Zong Yuancheng achieve a good development, which shows that the old gentleman is a talent who helps the world and saves the people, and must not be buried in the dust. Wang Fatzi said sentence by sentence.

"You, you!" Mr. Qiu trembled and pointed at Wang Fatzi for a long time, but he didn't speak.

In the end, Mr. Qiu withdrew his trembling hand: "The deputy city lord of the king has a son like this, the great blessing of the people of Zongyuan City!"

After Mr. Qiu took office, Liu Huo can be regarded as completing a major event in his heart, Mr. Qiu's ability and experience go without saying. is highly respected in the city, and he assists Wang Fatzi, and from then on, Liu Huo does not have to worry about Wang Fatzi's management of Zongyuan City.

After everything was arranged, Liu Huo planned to leave Zongyuan City with Su Yue'er, Lan Ke and the others.

"Are you really leaving? I've just taken over Zong Yuan City, and there are still a lot of things I don't understand? Wang Fatzi reluctantly said.

"Now that you have Mr. Qiu's assistance, if there are no special circumstances, there will be no problem." Liu Huo said.

"But!" What else did Wang Fatzi say, Liu Huo intercepted.

"Nothing more! Remember that you promised the promises of the various sects, as long as you have a good relationship with them, you will be able to be the city lord for the rest of your life in Zongyuan City. Handle the affairs of Zong Yuancheng with peace of mind, and your own cultivation should also be exercised more. Remember that Zou Tianfeng will definitely come back, and when the time comes, you must have the ability to kill him with your own hands and avenge your father. ”
