The reborn aunt went crazy and Chuangfei's whole family looked down upon them

After saying that, he stared at Qi Zhen, not missing any subtle expression.

"My subordinates must protect the young master to the death!"

These words were firm and powerful. Xu Hengpu was a little moved. Apart from his mother, he was the second person to make such a firm choice for him.

He stood up and helped him up, and said slowly: "Of course I believe you. But with your current skills, if you are an ordinary practitioner, you can still be defeated, but if you meet that first-class master... I’m afraid I won’t be able to fight back.”

Qi Zhen lowered his head and remained silent, knowing that these were all the truth.

"In a few days, I will ask my mother to arrange for some people to teach you. Of course, you will not be the only one who goes to practice martial arts. How much you can learn depends entirely on you."

Of course Xu Hengpu knew that Qi Zhen didn't say anything, but in his heart he still wanted to learn more skills.

Since he is dedicated to his own interests, how could he not help him?

Qi Zhen didn't expect that the eldest young master would be so affectionate and friendly to him. If he couldn't imitate him, wouldn't he have let down the eldest young master's wishes?

"Don't worry, young master! This subordinate will definitely fulfill his mission!"

"Well, you go back and pick a few people with some skills. When the time comes, we can take care of each other with you. Of course, the most important thing is to be loyal."

"Yes! I understand!"

He raised his head and glanced at the young boy. I don't know when he started to have such magnanimity, which made people feel fearful and impressed.

He pulled out a chair and sat at the door, basking in the slightly warm sunshine. Unknowingly, he had been staying in this palace for so long.

After a while, Qi Zhen brought in eight people. They looked about fifteen or sixteen years old, and their faces were as stubborn as a newborn calf that is not afraid of tigers. But when they saw Xu Hengpu, they were still well-behaved.

"Greetings to the eldest young master."

Several people bowed respectfully and stood in two rows in an orderly manner, waiting for the next instructions.

Xu Hengpu was not in a hurry and asked Qi Zhen to give each of them a purse of broken silver.

As the saying goes, money can make all the difference. Give some benefits before employing people, and capture people's hearts first. It will be much easier if you use them later.

"Young Master, these are all the sons of our family. They have all been favored by Madam to some extent, and they will definitely be loyal to the Young Master."

Although Qi Zhen has only been in the government for a short time, fortunately, he is very valued by Lin Qingwu. He handles everything big and small, and he is very good at taking care of people.

Xu Hengpu nodded. He was very relieved when Qi Zhen was doing things. He couldn't guess what Xiao Jiujiu was in Xu Zongen's heart.

If he didn't make preparations earlier now, he would be in trouble one day and there would be no place to cry.

Seeing that his leg was fully healed, he called Qi Zhen to prepare the carriage. It was also time to visit his former father.

Went to Hutong Town. The shop where we made a living had already changed owners. We drove the carriage for almost five miles before we saw the familiar house.

Xu Qiao was sitting in the yard whittling wood, with several small wooden bowls and spoons beside him.

Xu Hengpu's eyes were a little sore. Even though he had already guessed that his father was still living the same miserable life as before, when he saw it with his own eyes, he still couldn't help feeling sour and uncomfortable.

"Father..."

After shouting, Xu Qiao didn't raise his head, as if he didn't hear him at all.

"Father..."

After shouting again, Xu Qiao paused for a moment and continued busy with his work. Xu Hengpu felt that his heart was so congested, as if it was stuffed with cotton. The cotton was filled with water, heavy and breathless.

"Father..."

This time, Xu Qiao seemed to hear it. He put down the things in his hands, fumbled for the crutches, and stood up. One of his legs was lame, and it was already very difficult to stand up.

He slowly raised his head, his eyes tightly closed and unable to open them.

"Is Heng Pu here?"

As he spoke, he stretched his hands forward, trying hard to grab something.

It hung in the air for a long time, and then fell down weakly.

He knew that it was just another auditory hallucination. The child might be studying and writing at a famous master's house at the moment, so how could he come to such a place?

"father……"

Qi Zhen walked up to him, holding back tears.

"Heng Pu?"

Xu Qiao's tone was full of disbelief.

Xu Hengpu hurriedly ran forward and held his slightly trembling hand.

The hands were covered with thick calluses and had frostbite in several places.

"It's really you, Heng Pu! You! Why are you back? But did the Wuding Hou Mansion kick you out?"

Xu Hengpu shook his head, "No, it was my wife who asked me to come back to see you... Dad, your eyes... what's wrong? Your son was fine when he left, but why is he like this now?"

Hearing Xu Hengpu ask about this, Xu Qiao sighed.

"Dad! If you have anything to say, just tell your son directly. Your son will definitely make the decision for you! Now the old lady in the house is dead. The prince is careless about his family. The whole house is controlled by his wife, but she is also a waiter. My son is very good. If dad has any difficulties, he can tell his son directly!"

Xu Hengpu was extremely uncomfortable. He had never seen his father like this. In his impression, although his father had a good temper, he had never been bullied or suffered any disadvantages. Seeing him suffering such grievances now, How could you let him pretend not to know?

"Heng Pu! You are no longer my son! You are the legitimate son of the Wuding Hou Mansion, and the Crown Prince is your father! You and I have nothing to do with each other for a long time, and it is not up to you to take part in my affairs!"

Xu Qiao was extremely angry. So what if the old lady died? There is a nest of snakes and rats. If the child really knew that the Crown Prince sent someone to make him blind, the child would definitely come to the Crown Prince to argue with him. If the Crown Prince was disgusted by that time, For him, he would have been framed and excluded in the Hou Mansion.

He is now a useless person, but Heng Pu is different. He has a brighter future.

If he can obtain fame in the future with the help of the Marquis Mansion, his mother will feel happy even if she is under the ground!

Xu Hengpu held Xu Qiao's hand tightly, his eyes red, "Dad, no matter where my son goes, you are my father. Even if you don't tell, your son will find a way to know."

He knew in his heart that his father had always been kind to others and never made enemies with others. This incident must have been caused by him, so he didn't want to mention it more.

In the final analysis, I just don’t want to drag myself down.

He unloaded the carriage with the food and clothing he had prepared and what his wife had prepared, occupying half of the yard.

Food, clothing, and everything imaginable are prepared. With these things, dad doesn't have to work so hard.
