Chapter 704: Family Unity

He went to visit Shu Jin specifically, not because she was Mr. Shu's youngest daughter, but because she was pregnant.

Otherwise, with the status of the King of Nanling, how could he possibly travel so far to personally visit the younger generation? Even when Elder Shu was around, they only called each other.

It was not until Shu passed away that he rushed over to see him for the last time.

If it weren't for the powerful country's heavy military force, he would not have lowered his status.

"Sit down, everyone sit down."

"Yes, old man."

"No need to be so polite. I came here mainly to see Xiao Jin and bring some nourishing food."

No extra twists and turns, very sincere.

This also reflects the cultivation and magnanimity of King Nanling. Given his age and status, it would be too hypocritical if he continued to say some polite words.

Conquer people with virtue and treat people sincerely.

"Grandpa, I'm sorry to bother you with your concern. I made your niece very worried." Shu Jin said generously.

"Haha, kid, I'm afraid you don't want me to come?" King Nanling laughed.

This sentence made Shu Jin feel embarrassed. She really didn't want these old men to come over because they all wanted to persuade Lei Zhen through her.

She was reluctant to do this because she respected all her husband's decisions.

"Something happened recently that was very offensive, but I know what kind of person Lei Zhen is. He also extorted a lot of money from me, hahahaha."

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone became embarrassed.

Only Lei Zhen could do such a thing as dare to go to the Wang family in Nanling to cause trouble and extort a huge sum of money before leaving.

"He not only blackmailed me, but also extorted everyone he could. That's his skill," King Nanling said solemnly. "But he ultimately towed the aircraft carrier back, and used all the money for national development."

It is not difficult to find out where Lei Zhen’s money was spent. For those in power, they can find out clearly with just one sentence.

"Subsidies for Secret Security Bureau field personnel, investment in drone chips, equipment upgrades for special forces, development of overseas military bases, etc."

“Not everyone can think of these things after they become rich, and not everyone can do these things.”

"Lei Zhen is a unique kid. He's a jerk when he needs to be, and a righteous man when he needs to be. That's what I like about him."

Such high evaluation made the Shu brothers and sisters flattered.

"He's an Oriental, with an Oriental heart. He's a bit wild, but no one is perfect. Some people always want to tame him, which is not desirable in itself."

"If Lei Zhen could be tamed, he wouldn't have done these things. Anyone with power is unruly."

"He's not a wild horse, he's a kite. He can't be tamed, he can only be led."

The King of Nanling sees things very clearly, and knows that people are different.

Some people just need to be tamed, but some people just need a kite string to hold in their hand and let them do whatever they want.

It is difficult to say, but it is also simple to say.

"Huizhan, how old are you this year?" King Nanling turned to look at Shu Huizhan.

"Grandpa, I'm 50 years old." Shu Huizhan answered respectfully.

"It's time to make progress." The King of Nanling nodded and said, "Are you interested in developing the economy in Nanling?"

When these words were spoken, the four brothers and sisters were all stunned.

According to normal channels, Shu Huizhan's future is determined, and how far he can go is also determined.

Because Mr. Shu has passed away, although he is not completely forgotten, it is completely different from whether he is still around.

If we can go to Nanling to develop the economy, it will definitely broaden the upward channel.

"Of course I'm interested." Shu Huizhan suppressed his inner joy.

"Brother." Shu Jin said.

After hearing what his younger sister said, Shu Huizhan immediately came to his senses.

"Old man, my next position is already..."

"You've put it in the wrong place. Your father has never let go of this heavy burden." The King of Nanling waved his hand and said, "The national economy needs to develop, and Nanling is a top priority. The whole world is watching, the whole country is watching. If we don't do well, we will be a historical sinner."

It's said that the burden is heavy, but everyone knows that Nanling's economy has become active, and as long as it can be maintained steadily, it will be an achievement.

"Get ready."

"yes."

“…”

After chatting for a while, King Nanling finally stood up to say goodbye, and never asked Shu Jin to persuade Lei Zhen.

But in fact, everything was said.

After seeing off King Nanling, Shu Huizhan and his two siblings looked at their youngest sister.

"I can't persuade Lei Zhen. After all, it's a blood feud." Shu Jin said with a wry smile, "Don't try to persuade me either. I really can't bring myself to say this."

Hearing their younger sister say this, the three Shu brothers did not show any disappointment, but were very calm instead.

"I understand, little sister." Shu Huizhan said in a deep voice, "You can't say that. Everything is up to Lei Zhen himself."

"Our family has not taken good care of Xiao Zhen, and we can't possibly put pressure on him under such circumstances," said the second brother Shu Kaixuan.

"If Brother Hongwu were still alive, our two families would have such a lot of fun..." Third sister Shu Fan was very emotional.

The relationship between their two families is very special. Old Shu and Old Man Lei have experienced the most difficult times together and are as close as brothers.

When he was around, he wanted to seek justice for his nephew, but the matter involved too many people, and in the end he could only protect Lei Zhen.

"Hey, little sister, has Lei Zhen ever called you aunt?" Shu Fan suddenly asked.

"sister--"

"Haha, my little sister is blushing."

“…”

With Shu Fan's joke, the atmosphere suddenly became much more relaxed.

Although as long as Shu Jin speaks, Lei Zhen will definitely change his mind, and he can even make a direct request.

But the four brothers and sisters all do the right thing and are extremely united.

For Shu Huizhan and others, Lei Zhen is not only his brother-in-law, but also a family member.

They can't do anything that makes things difficult for their own family members.

"This matter ends here. No matter which old man comes next, we will welcome him however we should, but we will ignore all their requests." Shu Huizhan made the final decision.

Whether it was Shu Huizhan, Shu Kaixuan, Shu Fan, or Shu Jin, they all knew that if Lei Zhen's matter was not handled properly, their family would suffer an unprecedented shock.

But they chose to weather the storm together, even if they would be implicated.

This is what a true family looks like, united as one!

…

In a sanatorium in the imperial capital.

This is not a simple nursing home, but an isolation and protection unit.

Its level is very high and it is mainly used to protect people with special identities.

There are more than ten small courtyards inside, and each courtyard has guards. Although they are not at the black shirt level, the standards are also very high.

At night, the sanatorium was silent.

“Bang!”

There was a slight sound of a knife hitting someone's neck, and the guards in one of the courtyards were knocked down.

The King of Qin led his men in and walked into the bedroom.

There is someone lying on the bed, sleeping.

“Bang!”

Sun Yinhu slapped him to wake him up.

"Yu Hongxing?"

"Who are you?"

In response, he had a walnut forced into his mouth, and then he was tied up and taken away.

By the time the unconscious guard was found in the sanatorium, King Qin and his entourage had disappeared without a trace.

The news of Yu Hongxing's disappearance shocked many parties because he had become the key point in the game.
