Li Xin glanced at Xiao Zhiping indifferently.

"Your Xiao family, from now on, it will be changed to Xiao of Vegetables and Trees."

"If you can't decide, I will come again in a few days."

Xiao Zhiping bowed his head and said, "Thank you... Lord Hou, I am the master, I am the master..."

Xiaozi and Xiaozi have the same pronunciation, so it will not cause too much influence, but it is only different from Xiaozi.

Li Xin held the green pheasant sword, walked to the gate of the Xiao family's ancestral hall, and cut the door bolt of the ancestral hall in half with one sword.

Then he looked back at the trembling Xiao family members, and took a deep breath.

"Everything in the past was broken with a clean knife. The Xiao family's life and nourishment, and my mother's sufferings for more than ten years, should be paid off."

"It was you who kicked mother out of the house back then. Now that you have become a monk, from that day on, our two families have nothing to do with each other. If you still want to entangle, Li Xinjian will not spare you!"

After saying this, Li Xin put his sword back into its sheath.

He turned his head and took one last look at Xiao Mingli who was slumped on the ground, and then squatted down.

"Master Xiao, I didn't kill anyone today because of my mother."

"It's not that I haven't killed people before."

The youngest Marquis of Jing'an turned around and left the Xiao family compound.

Mu Ying and the others looked back at the members of the Xiao family, then turned and walked away.

After the Habayashi guards dispersed, Xiao Mingli stood up tremblingly from the ground.

He slapped his second son hard.

"Never forget your ancestors!"

Xiao Zhiping knelt on the ground and lowered his head: "Father, is the surname important, or the tribe?"

The second son of the Xiao family trembled all over.

"Father, my son doesn't know how to read, and you know that he was stuck with human life in his early years. Those soldiers in black have basically killed people before!"

"My son can tell that as long as that young man says a word, they will kill the entire Xiao family without blinking an eye!"

Xiao Zhiping kowtowed and said, "Father, he didn't do anything because he was thinking about Qinglan. You must not annoy him anymore..."

Xiao Mingli was silent for a long time, finally took a deep breath, and said, "Prepare the sedan chair, the old man is going to the county government office."

I don't know what the origin of that young man is, but Zhou County Magistrate must be clear.

The old man led his second son, Xiao Zhiping, to the Qiyang county government office and asked to see Zhou Xianzun.

Xiao's family is a well-known gentry in Qiyang County, so he can still meet the county magistrate.

After waiting for half an hour, Zhou Xianzun finally took time out of his busy schedule to meet Xiao Mingli.

Xiao Mingli bowed to Zhou Yang and said, "The student has seen the county magistrate."

He was born as a scholar, no matter how old he is, he should call himself a student when he sees the county lord.

Zhou Xianzun asked with a smile: "Why does Mr. Xiao want to see this county?"

Xiao Mingli took out two pieces of gold from his sleeve, and slowly handed them over, then took a deep breath, and asked, "The student wants to ask the magistrate about someone."

........................

A moment later, Xiao Mingli walked out of the county office, his face already pale.

Marquis of Jing'an, Minister of the Ministry of War, Conglong Gonggong...

It really is a wild child who has climbed to this position in a year...

He regrets it now, very much.

After all these years, even if he treats his daughter kindly, the matter will not be as troubled as it is today. Maybe the Xiao family can use Li Xin to become a family in the capital...

Old man Xiao swayed, almost unable to stand up.

Xiao Zhiping hurried forward to support his father.

Xiao Mingli's voice was trembling.

"Go... go home."

"Call the clan elders, change... change the surname...!"

The Xiao family can't afford to offend.

Xiao Zhiping also heard what the county lord said just now, he supported his father, and comforted him: "Father, don't be too desperate, he... No matter what, he is our blood relative, just like what the county lord Zhou said, He has just ascended to a high position, and he needs to employ people around him, let's not piss him off for the time being, in a few years he will employ people, maybe he will find relatives like us..."

Xiao Mingli turned pale and shook his head repeatedly.

"A broken mirror is hard to come by, our Xiao family... missed a ladder to the sky..."

If you can climb from the small county town of Qiyang County to the capital, then it can indeed be said that you have reached the sky in one step.

Xiao Zhiping sighed silently and didn't say much.

..............................

In the Qi family mansion on the other side, Li Xin was drinking tea in the backyard.

It's spring now, and the backyard of Qi's family is in full bloom, and the cool breeze is blowing, which is very pleasant.

Sitting opposite Li Xin, Mu Ying refilled a cup of tea for Li Xin and said with a smile, "I've known you for so long, and I've never seen you so angry."

The two of them, on the surface, have a superior-subordinate relationship. Before the public, Mu Ying called Li Xin the Marquis, but the latter two were much more casual.

Li Xin took a sip of tea and said slowly, "I don't know why, but I'm so angry."

His temperament is still very peaceful, even when Madam Yu burned down the cabin in the capital, Li Xin did not lose his composure like this, this time he was really angry.

Mu Ying also took a sip of tea, and slowly exhaled: "Don't say it, you are quite scary when you are angry, and even I was scared just now."

Li Xin was amused by his words.

"Brother Mu, a rich man from Shu, how could he be scared?"

"It can't be helped, it's too old."
