At the beginning, his wife came to him, and he became rich by selling kidney treasures.

Ren Hao opened the door and saw a servant dressed like a waiter standing outside.

"Sir, I've got some hot water for you to soak your feet in." The waiter said enthusiastically, holding a kettle.

After working hard for a few days, Ren Hao was a little tired. He couldn't help but feel a little moved and nodded, "Send it in."

Soaking in hot water, Ren Hao's fatigue dissipated a lot.

On the bed on the other side, Su Wan'er had already fallen asleep.

She hadn't had a good rest these days because she had been traveling all day.

Looking at Su Wan'er, Ren Hao fell into deep thought.

Now that we have arrived in the capital, it is easy to inquire about the Xu family, but how do we get in?

Saying that he is Xu Yating's man? Then he would probably be beaten up and thrown out by the Xu family before he even met Xu Yating.

Saying that he was here to talk business? But this image is not good, it feels a bit thief-like, and Ren Hao himself would look down on himself.

I want to force my way in, but I don't have the strength to do so.

No matter what, the Xu family is the richest family, and the guards in their family are definitely not ordinary people.

The martial arts in this world are not that advanced. The anti-gravity skills of flying over eaves, running on walls, and rising from the ground do not exist.

After thinking hard, Ren Hao couldn't think of a solution for a while.

It is estimated that Xu Yating has been under house arrest now and most likely will not come out on her own.

It is extremely difficult to see her.

With a sigh, Ren Hao went to bed to rest.

The next morning, after Ren Hao had breakfast, he left Xiao Wei and the others in the inn under the protection of Huili Xue, and took Su Wan'er for a stroll in the capital.

I have to say that the capital city is really big. On one street, the sounds of hawking are endless, and street vendors are everywhere.

Ren Hao was surprised by the prosperity of the capital city.

Not long after, Ren Hao stopped and pulled Su Wan'er to a breakfast stall.

The breakfast here is a kind of food made of brown rice and noodles, which looks very beautiful.

Ren Hao, who had not eaten much in the morning, could not help but feel tempted. He sat down, ordered two bowls of food, and ate while thinking of a solution.

While we were eating, two men in the same clothes came over and asked for a bowl each. They started eating and said:

"Hey, have you heard that the Xu family is going to marry the Prime Minister?"

"Marriage? It's none of my business. They are all high-ranking officials. It has nothing to do with us."

"And wasn't there a rumor going around a while ago that the eldest daughter of the Xu family had run away?"

The other man immediately laughed and said, "You are ignorant, right? Let me tell you, my second uncle's third cousin's father-in-law's youngest son is a servant in the palace, and I heard that the emperor has issued an imperial decree to grant them marriage!"

"Is this true? The emperor is granting the marriage. This is really like a grown-up girl taking off her pants..."

"How to say?"

“It’s not easy!”

"The Prime Minister still has face. The Emperor granted the marriage. Tsk tsk..."

The two people didn't say anything else.

Ren Hao on the side looked unhappy.

Originally, he thought that it was just the Xu family that didn't allow Xu Yating to marry him. He always had a way, whether it was to improve his own strength or to use Xu Qing's relationship, he had a way to impress the Xu family.

But the emperor granted the marriage and let Xu Yating marry the prime minister's son, which was tantamount to blocking Ren Hao's way!

The reason why the imperial edict is called an imperial edict is because it cannot be questioned or changed. Anyone who violates the imperial edict will become an enemy of the feudal dynasty.

Especially for the ruling class, the higher the level, the more they will protect it, because protecting the imperial edict and protecting the emperor is equivalent to protecting their own power.

The clear imperial edict and the mighty power of heaven cannot be changed.

Of course, it is not impossible to change, but the probability is too small.

Ren Hao's face was pale, his fists were clenched tightly, and there was a cold light flashing in his eyes.

He regretted it.

Originally, he just wanted to be a rich man and live a peaceful life.

But now he suddenly realized that no matter which world he was in, it was not easy to be a wealthy man who was indifferent to worldly affairs.

Because there are officials above me, and there are many things that I can't do anything about.

If he had strength and influence, then even if the emperor wanted to issue an imperial decree, he would consider it.

If he had the power, even the Xu family would consider agreeing to his request.

"Husband..." Su Wan'er's face was also very ugly. After several months of getting along, she and Xu Yating had become as close as sisters, and she could feel that Xu Yating really liked Ren Hao.

How uncomfortable Ren Hao must feel!

"Husband, what should we do?" Su Wan'er was at a loss and couldn't help crying.

She also knew that the imperial edict was difficult to change. She, who had confidence in whatever Ren Hao did, now had lost her confidence.

It’s not that they don’t want to believe, but they are ordinary people, and the emperor is someone they can’t even see.

What power is there to resist?

"The imperial edict?" Ren Hao spoke slowly, his voice as cold as frost.

"So what if it's an imperial edict! If you piss me off, the emperor will beat you to pieces!" Ren Hao growled, his eyes red.

Xu Yating was the woman he had chosen, and he would never allow her to suffer.

"Husband, don't be impulsive." Su Wan'er quickly advised, wiping her tears.

She was afraid that Ren Hao would do something drastic in a fit of rage, which would not only cost her her life, but she would also lose Ren Hao.

Ren Hao patted her hand gently and said softly, "It's okay, I know my limits."

After sending Su Wan'er back to the inn, Ren Hao went out alone.

After asking around, Ren Hao arrived at the gate of the Xu family compound.

Looking at the four strong guards in front of the door, Ren Hao just stopped for a while before being stared at by several people.

Ren Hao turned and left, and came to a grocery store not far from the compound. Ren Hao found a grocery store and directly used silver notes to buy the store for one thousand taels.

There is a small courtyard behind the store with several rooms that can be used for sleeping.

Then Ren Hao took Su Wan'er and several other girls over and settled them in the grocery store.

The two little girls, Xiaowei and Shanyue, are responsible for selling goods, while Su Linger and Qianer are in charge of daily life.

In the evening, Ren Hao brought Hui Lixue quietly to the vicinity of the Xu family compound.

The two of them walked around the Xu family compound and checked the route.

I found that there were only two doors in the Xu family compound, one was the big door in the front, one was the small door in the back, and there was a dog hole.

There were just a few vicious dogs in the dog hole, so Ren Hao simply omitted it.

The door definitely can't be opened.

However, the wall of the Xu family compound is quite tall, more than three meters high, making it a veritable high-gate compound. Moreover, footsteps can be heard from time to time, and it is obvious that there are patrolling guards.

I just don't know the situation inside. If I want to jump over the wall to go in, what if I get discovered? Although I can escape, the Xu family will defend more tightly and I will lose the chance to go in next time.

"Master... let me try... I can do it..." Eryuki said in stiff Chinese.

"No!" Ren Hao shook his head. Although Eriyuki's kung fu was good, he was not completely sure. If he alerted the enemy, who knows what kind of trouble would arise.

"Master, I can do it!" Eryuki said again.
