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

The next day, the grocery store continued to open quietly in the bustling downtown.

The two little girls, Shan Yue and Xiao Wei, maintain the business, while Ren Hao stays indoors during the day and occasionally sends Hui Li Xue out to buy some things in secret.

The sea was calm and a week passed quickly.

These days, Ren Hao occasionally goes out in the morning and listens to the gossip at the nearby breakfast stalls.

In the evening, I would also visit the brothels, the biggest place for spreading news in the capital.

Of course, Ren Hao only ate vegetables and didn't play with women, which made the brothel's madam invite out her treasure, but she ended up with nothing.

There seems to be more news about the Prime Minister and the Xu family these days.

The rumor was everywhere that the daughter of the Xu family was going to marry into the prime minister's mansion. The combination of these two, one political and one military, made countless people unable to sleep at night.

It would be fine if it was just two small families joining together, but both the Prime Minister and the Xu family are huge companies, so how could it be as simple as one plus one equals two?

The prime minister holds a high position of power, second only to the emperor and above everyone else, and it is almost a situation where the prime minister's power is greater than that of the emperor. However, this old fox is smart, and he never uses his power to pressure the emperor unless it involves his own interests.

This created a situation of mutual restraint with the emperor.

Although the Xu family does not have much power in the court, they have a mainstay like Xu Tiande in the army. He guards the God of War Pass and has 70,000 elite troops under his command. If the various arms such as food and supplies are included, there are at least 200,000 people.

Xu Tiande also has a son, Xu Qing, who is also a rising star and many people in the court have praised him.

In this way, the combination of military and politics, the combination of force and power, would even threaten the emperor!

It can even be said that it is not difficult for the emperor to take turns sitting on the throne.

In the past few days, the entire capital city has been in a state of uncertainty, with countless rumors making people panic.

On the other hand, the door of the prime minister's residence was closed, and even the prime minister claimed to be ill and did not attend the court, and no news was heard.

The Xu family also kept their doors closed, but many people still managed to find out some information.

It was said that the Xu family wanted to marry into a powerful family, so they approached the emperor to arrange a marriage.

Some said that the prime minister used his power to force the emperor to issue an order to grant the marriage.

There was also a rumor that the daughter of the Xu family and the son of the prime minister were secretly pregnant and had been colluding with each other for a long time, so they had to hold their noses to get married.

There are different opinions.

There were even rumors that the prime minister intended to usurp the throne and join forces with the Xu family to divide the world.

However, such outrageous remarks are naturally only circulated among a small number of people.

Then this small group told the other small group as if they were presenting a treasure, and just like that, in just a few days, the entire capital city became a mess.

Some are afraid, some are happy, and some are undecided.

There are even many people who want to visit the Prime Minister’s Mansion and the Xu family every day, hoping to build some better relationships.

On the night of that day, when the whole city was in a state of tension, dozens of roars suddenly sounded in the Xu family compound.

It was deafening and terrifying.

The walls of the Xu family compound were shattered by the violent explosions, leaving only broken buildings.

Some attics of empty houses were engulfed in flames.

The servants and guards of the Xu family were extremely busy.

The servants rushed to put out the fire, while the guards were protecting the important people in the mansion. Everyone hid in their houses and refused to come out.

In the dark night, two figures quietly entered the messy Xu Mansion, then came to an attic, knocked out the two guards who were guarding the house, and brought the people inside out.

……

Grocery store.

After seeing Xu Yating, Su Wan'er hurried forward to hug her, and the two of them cried together.

"Sister, I knew that my husband would definitely bring you out." Su Wan'er said happily.

Xu Yating also looked at Su Wan'er excitedly. Once upon a time, she thought she would never come back.

"Thank you for your concern, sister. I miss you so much, too."

Ren Hao came over, hugged the two women in his arms, and whispered: "We will never be separated in the future. No matter where we go, I will never let you leave me."

Su Wan'er and Xu Yating also leaned obediently in his arms, greedily sucking in the scent from his body.

After a long while, the three of them let go and sat at the table. Ren Hao sighed, "I'm just a little embarrassed for burning your house to such a mess."

Xu Yating smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. We can just rebuild it after it burns down. Father has plenty of money anyway..."

Speaking of this, Xu Yating couldn't help feeling a little sad.

Following Ren Hao means that I may not have the chance to see my parents again in my lifetime.

If Xu Tiankui saw her, his first reaction would be to catch her back.

"That's good. From now on, we will live in seclusion in the capital for a while. I'm sorry to trouble you." Ren Hao said apologetically.

Burning down the Xu family was like throwing another bomb into the capital.

Let the already boiling oil in the pot boil all of a sudden.

The Xu family will definitely send people to conduct a thorough investigation. I believe that from today onwards, everyone entering and leaving the city gate will be checked.

Moreover, because of Xu Yating's disappearance, the Xu family will definitely not conceal it. Once the prime minister's residence knows about this, they will definitely send people to investigate it thoroughly.

Even officials from the entire capital city will cooperate and even support it.

This is terrifying to think about.

The Xu family compound was blown to pieces silently, and then the people were taken away quietly. Doesn't this mean that if the murderer wanted to sneak into the home of an official and chop off his head, it would be easy?

Even the imperial palace was on high alert at this moment.

They can't go back to Caixu Village now. The first person the Xu family will suspect is them, and they will definitely send people to Caixu Village to investigate.

So it is safest for them to stay here.

"It doesn't matter. As long as I'm with my husband, it doesn't matter where I am." Xu Yating said.

"My sister is right, husband, anything is fine as long as I can be with you." Su Wan'er also said.

Ren Hao felt warm in his heart and held the two people's hands.

……

royal palace.

Linde Hall.

Wen Yan had just finished dealing with government affairs and was listening to Hong Yao reporting on the Xu family's situation.

"Your Majesty, I heard that Xu Yating, the daughter of the Xu family, is missing. Could this matter be related to her?" Hongyao said.

Wen Yan frowned: "Not necessarily. This method is silent and too horrifying. Who can take Xu Yating away like this?"

Hongyao suddenly spoke up, "Your Majesty, when I was in the God of War Army, I once mined coal with Lord Ren. Lord Ren used a method to directly blast away the huge rocks blocking the road. I was also amazed at the time. Now that I think about it, could it be related to the method Lord Ren used?"

"Ren Hao?" Wen Yan's face darkened slightly and she clenched her teeth.

Since returning to the capital, she has been having nightmares every day and has had difficulty falling asleep. The figure of Ren Hao often appears in her mind. Sometimes she wants to torture Ren Hao to pieces, and sometimes she misses him terribly. Of course, she will not admit it.

"Why is this bastard everywhere?"
