Creation Color Master

Liu Yuzhou left, leaving only Liu Feng and the eldest son Liu Yuning in the room.

Seeing Liu Yuning still sitting upright on the chair, Liu Feng frowned slightly and asked, "Why haven't you left yet?"

Liu Yuning stood up and said, "Father, I think my second brother is too reckless. He hasn't even investigated the details of the theater. What if he gets into unnecessary trouble?"

Liu Feng exhaled and said, "What kind of background can a small theater have? Can he really turn the tables? This shouldn't be the main reason why you stayed. Just tell me what you want to say."

Liu Yuning said: "Father, our money merchant has developed too rapidly in the past few years, and most of it has been developed with the help of external forces and some shameful means. Our family has no foundation. Once a crisis comes, any one of them may cause our Liu family to be shattered and ruined."

"We have expanded too much now. I suggest that we close down the Chamber of Commerce, let go of all the businesses that are shameful and pose potential threats, and transform all businesses into the open. This is the right way for the Liu family to develop in the future, father."

Liu Feng looked at his eldest son who kept persuading him, but he didn't hear a word he said.

This business expanded rapidly, and he curryed favor with officials from all over the country. The pleasure of rising status drove him crazy, and he even planned to find an opportunity to send the women in his family to the palace to curry favor with the person in that position.

He had fallen into madness at this time, and the only thing in his mind was to expand his business, prosper his family, and enjoy a lifetime of wealth and glory.

So no matter how Liu Yuning tried to persuade him, Liu Feng remained unmoved.

Liu Yuning left disappointed. Looking at the brightly lit courtyard decorated with lanterns and the luxurious courtyard built at great expense, it seemed that all the members of the family had turned into greedy monsters and had lost their humanity.

In Liu Yuning's eyes, the luxurious courtyard was like a devil's cave, constantly devouring human nature and magnifying people's inner desires.

Everyone has sunk into it, immersed in this hell wrapped in desire.

Thinking about how my father constantly oppressed the women in the family for power; thinking about how my father trafficked in people and contraband for wealth, and collaborated with officials to betray the country, etc., everything was so cruel.

This luxurious family is like a tomb built on piles of bones.

In his eyes, the family was destroying itself, and he had a premonition that the thing he was worried about would soon happen.

Unfortunately, he was only the son of the family, not the head of the family. He did not have the authority to decide the family business. He could only watch the family gradually slide into the abyss.

"Hey"

A sigh sounded in the middle of the night, carrying with it endless resentment and regret.

The snowflakes were still falling. Liu Yuning reached out and caught a white snowflake. It was so pure.

Liu Yuning let the snowflakes fall on his body. He walked outside step by step, walked out of the mansion, and walked alone on the empty street. Only a row of footprints left on the ground proved where he was going.

Liu Yuzhou came to a secret room. The huge secret room looked like a prison cell in a prefecture or county, and each cell contained a young girl.

They were full of fear, with lifeless eyes, and huddled in a dark corner like pitiful little animals.

Liu Yuzhou happily walked through the cells and came to the place where the actors were imprisoned.

Looking at the beautiful actors in front of him, Liu Yuning's eyes were full of greed and obsession, which was a desire for money and power.

"Haha, hello, beauties."

"You must eat well and take care of yourselves. Whether I can curry favor with the big shots and obtain the power and wealth I want depends on you."

"You should thank me. It's me who gave you the right to meet the big shots. Once you are favored by those big shots, you will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life, and you will live a life of endless wealth and glory. Isn't that better than being in the limelight?"

The actors looked at Liu Yuning with their eyes wide open and gnashing teeth.

In the same prison, Li Ru stood next to a torture instrument, on which lay a man covered in blood.

The secret guards standing aside were no longer surprised.

At this time, Li Ru took out a jade bottle from his arms and said to the bloody man: "Yang Xie, I advise you to tell me why you attacked the lord, otherwise I will use the brain-eating poison on you."

"Here, let me first introduce its abilities. This insect loves to devour human brains. During the process, you will experience a pain worse than death. It can also steal part of your memory. I think you are still useful to me, so you'd better tell me what it is, or I will really do it."

Seeing that Yang Xie still had his eyes closed and had no intention of answering, Li Ru sighed helplessly.

As the jade bottle opened, a fat white poisonous insect that looked like a silkworm crawled out and landed on Yang Xie's head.

"what"

Screams suddenly rang out in the prison, and the shrill and hoarse screams frightened the other people in the prison.

"Ah--I-I said"

"S-Stop it, I said"

Yang Xie had never heard of such a vicious poisonous insect. He thought that Li Ru had made it up to scare him, just to get the information he wanted. But when he felt a biting pain in his head, he was filled with fear.

Li Ru's mind moved, and the poisonous insect in Yang Xie's head stopped biting.

"call"

In just a moment, Yang Xie seemed to have experienced a life-and-death crisis. He didn't want to have this kind of desperate and terrifying experience again.

Li Ru's smiling eyes flashed coldly, and he said, "Hurry up and tell me, don't try to play any tricks, you should know what the price of lying to me is."

Yang Xie slowly said, "Sun Anzheng approached me at the beginning and asked us to help him deal with the governor Chen Gong. But when I went to the ambush site, I met an interesting person on the street, a young man named Chu Mo, so I tried to test him."

"But when he fell into the illusion I created, I accidentally discovered the love knot on his wrist. It turned out to be a love magic treasure, so I had evil intentions in my heart."

Li Ru's eyes were slightly cold, and his voice was filled with murderous intent as he asked, "Then why didn't you do it then, but chose to do it when Lin Mingwei and I were here?"

Yang Xie said: "The time we were on the street, we had to ambush and couldn't be exposed too early. Who knew you were actually in the same group? By the time I found out, I already had no chance to rob you."

"Besides, I'm leaving soon, so I decided to take a risk. I thought I could pull you into the illusion, but I failed."

Li Ru nodded. At this time, Du Yuntian came hurriedly from outside, bringing a hint of wind and snow.

"Sir, I have collected and organized the intelligence you asked me to gather. Please review it."

Li Ru took the letter and saw a list of crimes on it.

"Is that all?"

Du Yuntian said with a hint of fear, "Your Excellency, there are some officials involved in the court. It's far away and we don't have enough manpower. Moreover, this matter involves many people. I'm afraid of alerting the enemy, so I ordered to stop the search."

Li Ru thought for a moment and said, "Prepare a list of the officials in the court who are involved with them. Who knows, it might be useful someday."

Du Yuntian quickly agreed.
