The Eternal Beauty of the City of Wealth

When Shusun Bao found out, he hated Ziming to death. When he heard today that his son had invited him as well, he was immediately furious.

He immediately stood up and wanted to go out to chase Ziming away and settle the score with Meng Bing.

Shuniu quickly stopped him and said, "Father, you can't do that. All the doctors are here now. It would be disgraceful if you do that."

"If you want to punish my brother, wait until all the ministers have left!"

When Shusun Bao heard what his son said, he thought it made a lot of sense.

He ordered Shuniu, "Niu'er, after the doctors leave, teach Meng Bing a lesson for me!"

Shuniu was secretly delighted when he heard this and quickly agreed: "Don't worry, father! Shuniu will definitely teach him a lesson!"

Because Shusun Bao was angry with his son, he did not go out to announce the successor to the Shusun clan.

After watching the big bell and visiting Shusun Bao in the back house, the doctors left.

Meng Bing was confused. Didn’t they agree to announce himself as the heir of the Shusun family today? Why didn’t his father come out?

Just as he was wondering, Shuniu brought people to surround him.

Meng Bing was horrified when he saw this: "Shuniu! You! What do you want to do!"

"What are you doing? I'm here to kill you! Come on! Stab you to death with my sword!"

"Wait a minute! Shuniu, why did you kill me? Aren't you afraid that your father will find out and punish you?"

"Punish me? Killing you is my father's order! You will punish me only if I don't kill you! Do it!"

After he finished speaking, he waved his hand, and immediately more than a dozen servants raised their swords and stabbed at him.

Meng Bing screamed and fell in a pool of blood. Until his death, he never understood why his father wanted to kill him.

Shusun Bao was very angry when he heard that Meng Bing was killed by Shuniu.

He immediately called him to his bedside and asked, "Shuniu! Why did you kill Meng Bing?"

Shuniu pretended to be puzzled and asked, "Father, didn't you ask me to kill him?"

"Nonsense! This is complete nonsense! When did I ever ask you to kill Meng Bing?"

"Didn't you tell me to teach Meng Bing a lesson the day we watched the bell? I did just that!"

"I only asked you to teach Meng Bing a lesson! I didn't ask you to kill him!"

"Oh! So this is what Father meant. I misunderstood."

"Then what should we do? Everyone has been killed. Otherwise, father should kill Shuniu to make Meng Bing pay for his life!"

When Shusun Bao heard what his son said, he immediately shut up.

Meng Bing's death was purely accidental. How could another person be killed when the person was already dead?

He sighed and waved his hand: "Oh! Never mind! This matter ends here, you can go!"

Seeing that the matter was resolved so easily, Shuniu became more and more courageous and began to think about how to get rid of Zhong Ren.

When Zhong Ren learned that his brother was killed by Shuniu, he was so scared that he ran back to Qi to find his mother overnight.

After Meng Bing died, Shusun Bao seemed to understand something in his heart and began to doubt Shuniu.

Due to bad mood and old illness, my health is getting worse and worse.

After hearing the news, Zixu hurried to the mansion to visit, but he was stopped outside by Shuniu before he even entered the door.

Zixu was very angry and asked sternly, "Shuniu! Do you know how powerful I am?"

"Even the king would give me some face for anything I want to do! Who the hell do you think you are?"

Shuniu said coldly: "If this young master doesn't let you see me, what can you do to me?"

Zixu drew his sword with a clang and pressed it against his throat: "Well! Just try it!"

Shuniu was so frightened that he trembled all over, seeing that Zixu was serious.

If I continue to be tough and anger him, my life might be in danger.

So he quickly put on a smiling face: "Sir, don't be impulsive. Shuniu was just joking with you just now. Please come in, please come in!"

He disappeared in a flash. Zixu looked at his back and said coldly, "Humph! You're smart!"

After saying that, he pushed the door open and entered the room, only to see Shusun Bao lying on the bed, drowsy.

I hurried forward and touched his forehead. It was so hot. Does Lord Shangqing have a fever?

He nudged Shusun Bao and called out softly, "Shangqing Sir, Shangqing Sir..."

Shusun Bao heard someone calling him and slowly opened his eyes. Seeing that it was Zixu, he immediately struggled to sit up.

Zixu quickly held him down and said, "Sir Shangqing, please don't move. You are weak, so just lie down."

Shusun Bao nodded and did not insist: "I am very grateful that you can come to visit me, sir."

Zixu squatted down and looked at Shusun Bao's haggard face and asked, "Sir Shangqing, I haven't seen you for many days. How did you become so sick?"

Shusun Bao sighed and said, "Sir, I have never recovered from the cold I caught while hunting that day, and it is getting worse day by day."

He looked towards the door again, and Zixu understood and stood up to close the door tightly.

Shusun Bao grabbed Zixu's hand and looked at him with pleading eyes: "Master, save me!"

Zixu was startled: "Sir Shangqing! What happened?"

"Master! That rebellious son Shuniu hasn't given me any food for two days. He wants to starve me to death!"

Upon hearing this, Zixu stood up and said, "What? Is there such a thing? This is outrageous!"

"My Lord Shangqing, please wait. I'm going to settle accounts with that beast right away!"

Shusun Bao grabbed him and said, "Don't be anxious, sir. Let me finish what I have to say."

"You can't solve the problem by asking Shuniu. Can you find a way to take me out and send me to Fugui City?"

"I heard that the doctors at Fugui City Hospital are so skilled that they can even bring the dead back to life."

"Sir, if you can save my life, I will never forget your kindness!"

Zixu readily agreed: "Okay! But how are you going to eat these few days?"

"It's okay. I still have some cakes in the secret cabinet under my bed. They can last for a few days. You must find a solution as soon as possible!"

"Okay! I brought some food here too, you can eat first!"

"Hmm!" Zixu helped Shusun Bao up and handed him some food.

After returning to the general's mansion, he thought about it again and again and decided to tell his mother about this matter and ask her to find a way to rescue Shusun Bao.

So he immediately wrote a letter and ordered someone to send it to Fugui City at an accelerated speed of 800 miles.

After receiving the letter, Zixuan felt that Shusun Bao should be rescued. Such a famous figure should not be starved to death.

After careful consideration, she decided to go to Lu State in person to rescue Shusun Bao.

So she immediately activated the teleportation function and arrived at her son's general's mansion in an instant.

Zixu was startled when his mother suddenly appeared before him: "Mom, why are you here?"

Zixuan smiled and said, "Xu'er, don't you want to save Shusun Bao? Mother is here in person!"

"Ah? Then, how did you get here so quickly, mother?"

Zixuan glared at him and said, "Don't ask so many questions! Let's get down to business!"

Oh! Good! Zixu knew his mother's temper. She didn't like being asked questions.

"Mother! I have explained the details to you. How do you plan to rescue Lord Shangqing?"

"Xu'er, you only need to tell mother the location of Lord Shusun's residence. You don't have to worry about anything else!"

"Okay!" Zixu said, and immediately told Zixuan the location of Shangqing Mansion and the room where Shusun Bao lived.
