[The plot is fictional, please don't relate it to reality. ]

He pondered for a few seconds and said, "Dad, please do me a favor."

"Oh... That's rare," Mr. Mu responded in an exaggerated tone, "You actually need my help with something."

He picked up the teacup and pretended to take a sip, then glanced at him and said, "Tell me about it."

Mu Lianshen said seriously: "The matter in the Shen City Military District is related to the Qi family."

"You want to attack the Qi family?" Old Master Mu saw through his thoughts at a glance, frowned unconsciously, and said in silence for a moment: "The old man of the Qi family still has some face now."

"Besides, he is a person respected by many people. Who caused the trouble in the Qi family?"

Mu Lianshen told the story of those people who should have been well taken care of but ended up in a miserable way.

"Dad, you have to take care of this matter,"

Old Master Mu slammed the table and roared, "Manage, we must manage, damn it, you son of a bitch, even though those people made mistakes, there are orders from above, we must treat them well, and we must ensure that they die of old age."

"That old man from the Qi family knew about this? Who did it?"

He stood up and paced back and forth, cursing Qi for more than a dozen times before he stopped. His eyes were still full of anger, and his finger pointing at Mu Lianshen was trembling. "You...just do what you have to do. I'll go out for a errand tomorrow."

After saying these words, he thought for a while and said, "Don't wait until tomorrow, I'll go now."

Seeing the anxious old man Mu, Fu Xiao stepped forward to support him, "Grandpa, don't worry, take care of yourself."

After coaxing for a long time, he finally managed to calm down the irritable Mr. Mu.

Even though he had calmed down, Mr. Mu was not idle. He went to Zhai's house, ready to curse with Zhai Shixiong.

Fu Xiao looked at Mu Lianshen and said, "Dad, why did you tell grandpa about this? Look how angry he is."

Mu Lianshen smiled and said, "I couldn't hide it from him anyway."

"You think your grandfather is an old man who stays at home. He has more information than me."

"Besides," Mu Lianshen sighed, "only when he takes action can we achieve twice the result with half the effort."

"Sometimes, the face of an old man should not be underestimated. The old man of the Qi family is not a simple person."

He looked at Fu Xiao and said calmly: "As long as he is here, the Qi family will not fall."

"What consequences will there be if Grandpa takes action?"

Mu Lianshen spoke calmly: "After all, this time, Qi Tianhao can only be convicted of dereliction of duty."

"My goal," he said with a faint smile, "is to make sure he never gets promoted again."

"If your grandfather can pull him down, that would be even better."

Fu Xiao lowered his eyes in thought.

Mr. Mu came to the Zhai family with an angry look on his face, and just in time he saw the eighth son of the Zhai family, Zhai Zhengkun, who was at home.

"Uncle Mu, Lian Shen is back?..."

"Well, at home."

Mr. Mu didn't pay much attention to him. He just said something casually and went to find Zhai Shixiong.

Zhai Zhengkun returned to his room and said to the woman who was packing her things, "Wife, Lian Shen is home. Let's go there."

The woman turned around and said, "It's time to go. Send someone to buy something. Is the child back?"

"I'm back. I'll ask someone to buy it. You call Xiao Mo."

"knew,"

Upon learning that Zhai Shixiong was in the study, Mr. Mu pushed the door open and walked in.

"Old Zhai, let me tell you something..."

Zhai Shixiong, who was writing big characters, was so frightened that he couldn't finish a single stroke and the ink smudged the characters.

Helplessly, he looked up at Mr. Mu and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Shouldn't you be at home taking care of your granddaughter?"

Old Master Mu chattered on and on and told him everything that Mu Lianshen had told him.

After hearing his words, Zhai Shixiong put down the brush in his hand, frowned and murmured: "Qi family..."

He walked out from the desk and came to Mr. Mu, "Sit down first."

After the two sat down.

Zhai Shixiong sighed softly, "I know more about the Qi family than you do."

Mr. Mu frowned and looked at him, "What do you know? Tell me..."

"The old man in the Qi family originally had two younger brothers,"

Mr. Mu looked at him puzzledly, "And then..."

"Following his eldest son, he died together."

The expression on Mr. Mu's face changed again and again, and then he heard Zhai Shixiong say: "It seems that the tragedy was caused by someone disobeying orders and advancing recklessly."

Mr. Mu looked at him and asked, "So what?"

Zhai Shixiong said: "It was too chaotic at that time. Later, for some reasons, a group of people were punished."

"Maybe the Qi family is targeting the demoted personnel because of this?"

"Nonsense," Old Master Mu snorted coldly, "Those people who were demoted have nothing to do with the Qi family's affairs. Don't you know how those who disobeyed orders were dealt with in the end?"

He lowered his voice and said, "They are all victims of politics. The military was just pretending, so they issued a secret order. Mayor Shen didn't do it..."

As he said this, Mr. Mu slammed the table again.

Zhai Shixiong looked at him with amusement, "How do you know it's the Qi family's problem? I remember that the kid from the Qi family was just a temporary replacement. What if he's an outsider?"

Mr. Mu said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you always make excuses for him?"

"The Qi family has been in Shen City for a long time, and the previous commander also had a close relationship with the Qi family. Do you think I'm stupid? Even if old man Qi didn't know, his son would always fail to notice."

Zhai Shixiong smiled and said nothing.

He just didn't want to think that badly of his comrades.
