Chapter 81: The Sword Unsheathed
Liu Hui didn't answer, just kept silent.
Patriarch Piao Gao said more softly: "Your father's prestige is limited now, and the appeal of the White Lotus Sect is not strong, and the army is sometimes loyal and sometimes defective. Friends, when you are powerful, he shakes hands with you, and when you are not powerful, he immediately turns his face, not to mention those overseas immortal sects. "When it comes to overseas immortal sects, the patriarch looks very angry." He sees that you have a good sign, and he gives you all kinds of package tickets, as long as you encounter the slightest resistance, you will immediately fall into the well. Therefore, if you want to achieve great things, you must cooperate sincerely between the two religions. ”
"The cooperation between the two religions of the father is a matter of great importance, and I ask my father to be careful before making a decision."
"Of course," Ancestor Piao Gao seemed to have consumed too much physical strength, and he said with some gasp, "I must think about it again, be cautious." I have carefully observed the friends of the Fire Spirit Sect, they are quick to think and open-minded. Moreover, they naturally believe in their Fire Spirit Teachings, but they also support our White Lotus Fa-rectification. is not like Song Lun, Wu Ling Zhenren, and even less like Fan Luobai. You said that if I don't recruit such talents, how can I succeed? So I don't think I do what they say, is there really only one mouth left? ”
Liu Hui also had to admit at this time: "Yes, father, our sect is really mixed. Sometimes it's chilling to think about. ”
Unexpectedly, Patriarch Piao Gao asked rhetorically at this time: "What about you, are you good?" Or is it a sting? I have repeatedly urged you to send military salaries to Jiangyang County and Ningzhou County, why have you delayed sending them? ”
Liu Hui was startled when he heard this, he didn't dare to sit anymore but got up and confessed: "Father, I didn't mean to disobey your orders, it's really difficult to raise funds." ”
"You are the prefect of the Demon City, you have the power and the opportunity to do positive things for the Holy Sect, are you deliberately trying to force the Jiang Han Army and the Ningzhou Army to rebel?
After training his son, Patriarch Piao Gao looked a little unbearable, and changed his tone to a tone like a parent training his son: "You really don't have any money? ”
Liu Hui hurriedly swore and swore an oath: "I swear." ”
Unexpectedly, the ancestor of Piao Gao changed his tone again: "People, I have already sued you, but you, as the prefect of the demon city, ignored the difficulties of the sect, embezzled military salaries and built villas privately, held banquets every day, and pushed pai gow every night." ”
"Wronged, wronged, father, this ...... This is someone spreading rumors and slander. If I had the audacity, I would never have dared to build a private house in these difficult times. ”
Mrs. Lin Wei hurriedly persuaded beside her: "Sir, don't be wronged if you don't have evidence, in my opinion, he is still very serious as a prefect, and he is still very hard-working." ”
Mrs. Lin Wei's persuasion really had some effect, and Patriarch Piao Gao did not get angry again, he sighed: "Liu Hui, once these things are true. He raised his head, looked at his son with a cold look and said three words, "Just kill the head!" ”
After the patriarch finished speaking, he walked away, leaving only the frightened Liu Hui on the spot, not knowing what to do. Seeing this, Mrs. Lin Wei couldn't bear it, and hurriedly stepped forward to say something comforting: "Hui'er, how is your mother doing lately?" ”
Liu Hui felt like someone had pulled him up from the ice cave and sat on the ice to catch his breath. His mood stabilized a little, and he nodded, "It's okay." ”
Mrs. Lin Wei said: "Say hello to her for me, and your father and I will go to Macao to see her on a later day." ”
"Thank you, ma'am."
"Your father, it's too hard, and now for the sake of the two religions joining hands, many people can't figure it out for a while. Your father is very tired, so don't mind, come and visit him another day. ”
"Okay madam, you should rest early, too."
That night, Liu Hui found twenty or thirty coolies to move to his house. He knew that since his father had mentioned something, it would not be chasing after the wind, but he must have gotten some news. The reason why I didn't have a seizure just now was because I looked at Mrs. Lin Wei's face. If you don't move out quickly, sooner or later, my father will send someone to find out the water and find out the well, and he will be finished.
Liu Hui's wife didn't know what to do, and when she saw that her man was crazy, she hurriedly started to move before dawn, and was very shocked, and said: "We really want to move away, what, don't we want this house?" ”
Liu Hui didn't bother to explain to his wife at this time: "It's not that we don't want it." Don't ask. ”
"But where are we going to live?"
"Madam, don't worry, let's have a place to live, let's hang up this sign first, you know? Otherwise, it's going to be troublesome. The sign of the money and grain transfer yamen is hung here. ”
"What do you mean?" An extremely familiar voice sounded behind Liu Hui, and Liu Hui was stunned like a clay fetus. It was a voice he knew all too well, he had been listening to it for almost thirty years, it was his father's voice.
Liu Huaxue's blood was cold, he knew that the ancestor's temper would definitely not spare him, but he didn't expect his father to appear so early. This completely disrupted all his plans, and he knew that it was all over now, and he slowly turned to look at his father.
"Can you put up a sign like this to cover up your corruption crimes? You are a moth in the White Lotus Holy Sect, and you are an unforgivable sin. ”
"Sir, don't be angry," Mrs. Lin Wei persuaded beside her, "Isn't Wao'er a cover-up, isn't he already correcting?" ”
"Correction? This is a cover-up. Money and food were not distributed to the soldiers in front of them. But build a comfortable nest for yourself, you are betraying the Holy Sect, and my White Lotus will be defeated in the hands of you people. As soon as the big thing was a little eyebrow, you were corrupt and bribed. ”
Liu Hui was so frightened that he was at a loss on the spot, Liu Hui's wife knew that the ancestor had always been selfless and unforgiving, and this time he was afraid that he would not spare his husband. She was so frightened that she immediately knelt on the spot and kowtowed repeatedly: "Father, Liu Hui knows that he is wrong." Liu Hui, he is willing to change, Liu Hui doesn't dare anymore," and then pulled Liu Hui's sleeve, "Liu Hui, don't you kneel down quickly." ”
Liu Hui suddenly woke up and said: "I was wrong, I shouldn't have built a private house for myself." As he spoke, he fell to his knees and cried, "Father, I was wrong. ”
The patriarch was unmoved, and shouted, "What use do I want from you? I'm going to beat you to death. ”
Mrs. Lin Wei hurriedly stepped forward to stop and persuaded: "Sir, he already knows that he is wrong, since he has put up a sign overnight, then he knows that what he did is wrong, and he is already changing it." ”
The patriarch couldn't listen at all at this time, and he turned around and snatched the sword from the waist of his sword envoy. Just listen - choke! The sword is unsheathed!
The patriarch was furious and was about to behead Liu Hui.
