"Dad, what do you mean?" Qing Yumei was stunned.

Qing Tieshan didn't say anything, but looked at Xiao Chen with his eyes narrowed, "Boy, you'd better stay away from my daughter. She is not someone you should covet!"

Qing Yumei and Xiao Chen were both stunned when they heard this. They turned around and looked at Fen Rourou. They didn't understand what she had just said that caused Qing Tieshan to misunderstand like this!

Fen Rourou's face turned pale, and she tried her best to make eye contact to show that it was none of her business!

In the end, Qing Yumei and Qing Tieshan had a heated argument. Qing Tieshan finally compromised and agreed to let Xiao Chen stay in the Qing family for a few days, but only for a few days. When the time was up, he had to leave immediately.

Qing Tieshan is a strong and rigid person, but he shows his soft side only in front of his daughter.

Qing Yumei's mother Liu Shan died of complications during childbirth!

At that time, Qing Tieshan was fighting for his family outside. When he learned the news and rushed back to his family with bloody wounds all over his body, the person was already dead. He didn't even get to see him for the last time.

Qing Tieshan felt extremely guilty. He knelt in front of Liu Shan, slapped himself in tears, and swore to the sky that he would raise Qing Yumei to adulthood and would never let her suffer any grievances!

Afterwards, Qing Tieshan kept his promise and acted as both a father and a mother to Qing Yumei, raising her to adulthood. Only he knew the bitterness involved.

But even so, he still felt that he owed Qing Yumei something!

After all, mother's love is irreplaceable.

In order to prevent Qing Yumei from suffering any injustice, Qing Tieshan never remarried.

Following Qing Yumei and her group, Xiao Chen soon arrived in front of a city.

This is a small city with a population of no more than 200,000. The city walls are made of blue bricks, but the flow of people is quite large.

But most of them want to enter the imperial capital through Qingyun City.

The imperial capital is the center of the entire Daxia, with convenient transportation and connections to dozens of cities. Qingyun City is relatively small among them. It is inferior in both population and strength, and cannot be compared with a large city like Huangbei City with a population of millions.

Although Zhongzhou is powerful, there is a huge gap between cities.

In front of the city gate, two soldiers were collecting the city fee. There were two long lines of people waiting in front of them. Many of them were carrying bags on their backs. It was their first time in Qingyun City.

Space stone rings are rare items and are expensive. Ordinary people simply cannot afford them, and most people still carry them in bags.

Qingtieshan did not queue up and led everyone directly to the city gate.

"Master Qing! Come in!"

A soldier guarding the city with buck teeth saw Qing Tieshan approaching and his attitude immediately changed. He smiled.

Before, when facing the people entering the city, he always had a cold face and looked very arrogant.

Qing Tieshan nodded and walked in with Xiao Chen and his group in a swagger.

The entrance fee is for outsiders. Naturally, giants like the Qing family in Qingyun City don't have to pay it. Logically, Xiao Chen should pay it, but he was brought by Qingtieshan, so the soldiers naturally didn't dare to ask for it.

"Hmph, the Qing family has fallen into such a state, why is Qing Tieshan still so arrogant?" After Tie Qingshan and others left, the soldier guarding the city put away the smile on his face and spat on the ground, obviously dissatisfied with Qing Tieshan's attitude just now.

Suddenly, he remembered the young man in white standing next to Qing Yumei. His face changed slightly. He walked aside and said to another soldier, "Brother, I have something to go out for. Can you help me out?"

"Fuck you, there are so many people queuing up to get into the city, how the hell am I supposed to handle it?"

"It's about Master Hou!" The bucktoothed soldier lowered his voice.

Upon hearing this, the other soldier guarding the city stopped talking and nodded reluctantly.

The bucktoothed soldier smiled, clasped his fists, ignored the people in line, and turned away.

According to the military order of Daxia, those who leave their posts without permission will be severely punished!

But the bucktooth soldier acted as if nothing had happened and left without any warning. This shows how stupid the Lord of Qingyun City is and how his subordinates have no rules!

"Why is he gone?"

"We're still rushing into town!"

Many people shouted in dissatisfaction.

"What's the fuss? He has military duties to attend to. From now on, I'll be the only one collecting taxes. Everyone, get in line!"

The soldier guarding the city glared at everyone, and everyone immediately quieted down.

Xiao Chen and his companions could not see what was happening here!

After entering the city, Xiao Chen walked on the relatively busy streets and looked around.

There are many shops on both sides of the street, including rice shops, butcher shops, vegetable shops, restaurants, weapons shops, rouge shops, etc., everything you can think of.

Many people are going in and out of the shop, choosing the goods they like!

However, most of those people were rich kids dressed in fancy clothes.

Poor families cannot afford to go. They can't even afford two meals a day and can only work day and night to earn a meager income!

Walk to the end of this street and turn two corners, and you will arrive at Qing Mansion.

Xiao Chen looked up at Qing Mansion.

This is a large and majestic mansion covering a large area. Unfortunately, it seems to have fallen into disrepair. There are some slight cracks on some of the walls. The whole house looks a bit old, and the black paint has fallen off in some places and has not been repaired.

It can be seen that this mansion was once glorious, but is now in decline!

Seeing Qing Tieshan and others return, the two guards guarding the gate hurried forward to salute, opened the vermilion gate, and invited Qing Tieshan and others in.

When the guard saw Xiao Chen beside Qing Yumei, he was slightly stunned and his face turned ugly, but he didn't say much. He respectfully watched Qing Tieshan and others enter the door, and then closed the door.

"What's wrong with you, young lady? You brought back a man!"

"I don't know, but Miss has been too inconsiderate this time. If Young Master Hou knew about this, my Qing family might see bloodshed again!"

"I'll report to the Great Elder!"

A guard left with a solemn expression, entered Qing Mansion from the back door, and gradually disappeared into the depths of Qing Mansion.

Xiao Chen was placed in a guest room to rest. Except for Qing Yumei and Fen Rourou, everyone was very cold to him and no one was willing to talk to him.

Some people were whispering, thinking Qing Yumei was shameless and worried that if Master Hou Yi found out, the Qing family would be in trouble again.

Xiao Chen had amazing hearing and took in all these words, with a strange look on his face.

Qing Yumei was forced into marriage, and no one in the entire Qing Mansion sympathized with her! Instead, they were extremely afraid of Hou Qing!

If it weren't for the words "Qing Mansion" written here, people would have the illusion that this is the Marquis' Mansion.

But since he has made up his mind to take action, everything will be solved soon. Now, just wait quietly!

He glanced around the guest room.

It is quite satisfactory.

It has everything it should have, but it’s not gorgeous at all!

This situation is also normal!

After all, the Qing family has declined and is no longer as prosperous as it used to be!

In another study.

Qing Yumei is having a secret conversation with Qing Tieshan.

"What? You want me to give the Taixu Order to that freeloader?" Qing Tieshan was extremely shocked when he heard his daughter's words.

"Dad, I told you that Young Master Xiao is a swordsman! Why are you still mentioning that he is eating for free?" Qing Yumei retorted.
