The eyes of the lord of Pingzhuang were gloomy ashes, and he said, "Brother Xia, you and I are both sinners of the four major families. I deserve to be in this calamity today, and I am not in a position to complain. I hope that the second half of my life will allow me to repent peacefully in this prison. But as a person who has come over, I advise you that before you take refuge in the Seven Evil Holy Monarchs, it is best to show your tricks first and see what happens to me. You also know that I was the first one to agree to cooperate with him, and what was the result? He was just a ruthless man who used what he saw for profit and abandoned it when he didn't have it, and he would never treat his allies sincerely. If you want to work with him, either you are stronger than him and can control the whole situation. Either you are eaten by him with a belt meat, and you don't even have bones left. ”

The lord of Xia Zhuang said: "That's because you are incompetent, and you don't know how to please others! I don't believe it, I offer this great gift, and he will not pay special attention to me?" The lord of Pingzhuang said: "What is the great gift? When the ancestors of the four cities lived in seclusion and founded the four major families, the ancestral teachings passed down from generation to generation are to let us know how to clean ourselves and take care of ourselves. For the sake of that little worldly profit, you will not hesitate to turn against your brothers, and even give up your family inheritance?"

The owner of Xia Zhuang knew that he had leaked his mouth, coughed dryly, deliberately enlarged his throat to cover it, and shouted: "When death is imminent, you still dare to speak wildly! Second Ping, you are also worthy of teaching me a lesson? You still remember our ancestral teachings for revitalizing the family? That was the rule jointly established by the four major families, and now that even my name does not exist, how can I be bound by the form left behind? Don't forget that it is precisely because of your betrayal that today's disaster has been caused. You are a sinner, and now I follow your past footprints, you don't have to be a saint to preach to me!"

The owner of Pingzhuang smiled bitterly: "Yes, just because I have missed it once, how can you make me wrong a second time? I have decided to withdraw from the rivers and lakes, and from now on all the power and profit in the martial arts will not have anything to do with me." ”

Lord Xia Zhuang softened his tone and said, "Why bother? People are not sages, who can do no wrong." If you think about it, the four great villas can fall, but the names of our four great families cannot! Now I am glad that we are safe and sound and have not suffered major damage. You, I, Brother Liu, when the time comes, we will go to join the original eldest brother, we will be forced into the Central Plains, and we can still do everything we can to create another foundation! Raise our eyebrows and let everyone look up to us convincingly! In this way, we will not be in vain for years of painstaking preparation! What do you say about quitting the rivers and lakes, you will have to abandon all your ambitions from now on, cultivate the land and weave cloth like those ordinary people, and be willing to live, old age, sickness and die, and you will be willing?"

The owner of Pingzhuang said: "I have made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me anymore." Being able to live like an ordinary person is exactly what I have been dreaming for for many years. In this world, no matter how much you have and how vast your foundation is, once you die, it will still be empty. If the descendants of future generations do not fight for their strength, they will still waste your hard work! The four great families have run out of energy, who can save the decadence again? Brother Xia, you are also a person with ideals and ambitions, why do you have to carry a lifetime's burden for the sake of a few words from your ancestors? Now that we are not old, we want to start anew and live for ourselves, and everything is still too late! Perhaps the destruction of the four major families is a sign from heaven that we can shake off the shackles from now on...... Stop being obsessed. ”

The lord of Liuzhuang widened his eyes and shouted: "Shut up! You are not allowed to insult the ancestors of the four cities! It is your daughter's fault, you dare not bear it, and don't make some despicable excuses! We are fortunate to be born as the descendants of the four cities, and naturally we live to revitalize the four major families and recover the four cities! If there is really a father, there must be a daughter, and listening to your earnest teachings all day long, it is no wonder that we can raise a daughter with psychological quirks. ”

The owner of the village seemed to smile and said, "Oh, it turns out that although the Liu family is not valued by the elderly, the Liu brothers are very loyal to the four major families?" glanced at the owner of the village, and said: "Your heart is more dead than the rotten mud in the mud pond, and your mouth is harder than the stones in the pit." It seems that I can't bear to move you, so I have to find another person to enlighten you. ”

The owner of Pingzhuang sneered: "Aren't you still giving up? No matter how many people you find to talk to me, it is impossible to change my mind. It's easy for you to execute me now, but if I agree to your request and make that dirty deal, I can't! ”

Lord Xia Zhuang said: "What to reply, wait until you meet that person, and then think about it." As he spoke, he stepped out of the cell, and a moment later returned with a woman in his hand, sneered, grabbed her by the collar, and pushed her. Ping Ruoyu stumbled, hurriedly approached the owner of Pingzhuang, and called, "Dad...... Daddy!"

Director Pingzhuang relied on how the owner of Xia Zhuang used both soft and hard, just because he did not care about life and death, and was always unmoved. When he saw his daughter kneeling in front of him, he was stunned, and his whole armament collapsed, and he said, "Yu'er, why are you here?" and then sighed and said, "I am just in case today, who would have ...... it."

Ping Ruoyu said softly: "Daddy, don't say it." "It turned out that after Ping Ruoyu and Shangguan Yaohua got married, the owner of Ping Zhuang was afraid that a former opponent would come to the door and affect his daughter. After seeing that the two of them had made a big gift, they said goodbye to Prince Fu and left quietly. I didn't want to take a few steps, so I targeted the owner of Xia Zhuang, and I didn't want to use force, so I quickly caught him and imprisoned him here.

The owner of Xia Zhuang smiled and said: "Your daughter knows things better than you, and after listening to the old man's preaching, she decided to personally come to persuade you, the father, to return to his lost path." By the way, without further ado, she agreed to my terms and expressed her willingness to cooperate with me. Alas, Brother Ping, you have lived for so long, if you can have half a point of love, it can also save me a lot of effort. ”

The lord of Liuzhuang's eyes widened, and said in a strange voice: "Yo, look who is here? Isn't this the trouble-making girl of the Ping family? After taking the medicine that your brother Ping has painstakingly studied, he played crazy in the villa, and finally caused the sea water to pour in, destroying the four major families? After listening to the persuasion medicine, isn't it certain that he will die? Why is it that he is alive and vigorous now? Ha, when the Seven Demon Heads attacked the villa all the way, they were hostile to our position! It was your father who colluded with him and wanted to get rid of us and get more benefits. Now that Xia Lao'er has rebelled against the family, you are the first one to be a lobbyist for such a scumbag, and you would rather betray your biological father...... You two are really half a catty and eight taels? You are a good father and daughter, and you both have the blood of traitors in your bones!"

Ping Ruoyu shouted: "Uncle Liu, can there be a good person among our four major families? Who is not secretly plotting and taking advantage of each other? If you had agreed to Uncle Xia's conditions in the morning, how could it have ended up like this now? I am afraid that what came out of your mouth at that time was another word. The owner of Liu Zhuang sneered: "What a girl who can't do anything about herself! Youben went to persuade your awkward father in advance, and then come to talk nonsense with me!"

Ping Ruoyu didn't need him to say it, and was about to go to see her father. He stroked the side of his face in distress and said, "Daddy, how are you doing these days? Have they beaten you? Have they tortured you?"

Before the owner of the village could answer, the owner of the village snorted coldly: "Don't worry, the old man has not had the habit of abusing the captives, let alone the leisure and leisure! I gave you time, not to see your father and daughter hugging and crying." Isn't it faster?" Ping Ruoyu came to her senses and said softly: "Daddy, don't insist any longer, just agree to Uncle Xia's conditions." ”

The owner of Pingzhuang exclaimed: "Yu'er......! What are you talking about?" Lord Xia Zhuang smiled and said, "Look, even your daughter has opened the golden mouth. Even if you don't give face to be a brother, you should give your daughter a face, right?" The owner of Ping Zhuang held Ping Ruoyu's shoulders and looked at her carefully, as if he was worried that the owner of Xia Zhuang had made a move to steal the beam and change the pillar, and now it was not his daughter in front of him. asked, "What did Brother Xia say to you?"

Ping Ruoyu burst into tears and said, "Daddy, my daughter doesn't want to betray you, she just can't bear to see you suffer like this." In your daughter's heart, you should be tall and majestic, teasing the rivers and lakes, playing the world, all in the palm of your hand...... Who is not wrong, as long as you can forgive yourself, and everyone can forgive you, then everything will not be sinful, why do you punish yourself like this?"

The owner of Pingzhuang said lightly: "Once some mistakes are made, they are stains for life, and there is never a chance to correct them." Your father committed such a felony. Ping Ruoyu shook her head again and again, and said, "No, no...... Daddy, you're a big hero......"

The owner of Pingzhuang laughed miserably and said, "Yu'er, you just look down on your father, and you don't have to be so sarcastic. What is a hero? I'm afraid that I'm not even qualified to be a hero! I don't want to set foot in the rivers and lakes, because there is an old saying that people can't help themselves when they are in the rivers and lakes. If you are in the middle of it, you will inevitably be left to the side by the situation, and you will have to fight, to take, and to do many things that you would not want to, or even to the extent of your nature! Over time, your hands will be bloody, and you will no longer be yourself. Troubled times are a big dye vat, it will confuse you, let you temporarily enjoy the temporary pleasure of power, and finally plunge you into a hell from which you will never recover, and sink into the sea of misery forever! Daddy finally saw through the world and had the heart to withdraw from the endgame, you don't have to shake me anymore. ”

Ping Ruoyu bit her lip and said, "No, Daddy, all these changes depend on the greed of human nature itself. If you can stand on the world, behave properly, and do right, even if you are in troubled times, you can still be at peace. On the other hand, if you are deeply impetuous, even if you are far away from the world, you will also be infected by evil nature. Daddy, if you want to prove that you are an invincible hero, show them that there is a good and a bad power, and those in power can oppress the people and put the world in dire straits, but they can also use the power in their hands to seek the well-being of the world. It is an eternal law that if you want to be proud, you must first be above all others......"

Lord Pingzhuang frowned and said, "Yu'er, you said it very well. This great cause will be in your hands. Your father thinks that he is not the kind of self-control that is so domineering, and he does not have the spirit of 'getting out of the mud without being stained'. To be self-aware is also a transgression, isn't it? Daddy is coming to old age, and he only wants to enjoy this last freedom, and you refuse to satisfy me?"

Ping Ruoyu peeked at the owner of Xia Zhuang behind him, and was eager to persuade his father before he got angry, and said: "Daddy, from childhood to adulthood, it has always been the daughter who has been accommodating you and satisfying you, only this time, the daughter begs you...... I don't want to lose my father, and I don't want to see the scarred four major families have civil strife again, and our family can no longer withstand any twists and turns. ”

The owner of Pingzhuang sighed: "Yu'er, don't say it, even if Daddy is sorry for you this time!"
