"Tenth Brother, what do you mean by this?"
Qin Tian frowned. "You know I have no dealings with Qin Xiangzheng. What does his life or death have to do with me?"
Qin Xiangzheng was the real name of Marquis Xiang of Qin.
"Second brother, I know you're just saying that out of anger. After all, Father is our biological father. Without him, there would be no you."
Qin Yu looked anxious. "Now that Father is in trouble, not to mention the debt of raising you, shouldn't you at least repay the debt of giving birth to you?"
"Second Young Master, the events of that year were extremely complicated, and it's not entirely the Marquis's fault. In fact, the Marquis..."
The old man beside Qin Yu also quickly spoke to Qin Tian.
However, before he could finish speaking, Qin Tian waved his hand from a distance, and with a loud bang, he was sent flying, blood gushing from his mouth!
Qin Tian sneered: "It's none of your business, a mere servant, to interfere in the affairs of my Qin family. I'll spare your life if you kneel at the door."
"Ah, yes..."
This old man is a master of the ninth rank, fourth level; no matter where he is, he is a master among masters.
Even his master, Qin Yu, treated him with courtesy and consulted with him.
Even in front of Marquis Xiang of Qin, he did not need to kneel and spoke frankly.
Therefore, he got used to this way of speaking.
He never expected that this Second Young Master Qin Tian was exceptionally talented. After joining the Sumeru Sect, his strength had already reached the Ninth Grade, Eighth Level, a level that he could never reach in his entire life!
They are the top fighting force of the entire empire.
After being taught such a lesson, he finally realized that even a dignified ninth-rank, fourth-level expert could only kneel at the entrance of the front hall.
Qin Yu was shocked. He had always known that his second brother was incredibly powerful.
However, he never expected that his second brother's strength would be so formidable!
He quickly said, "Second Brother! That's our father!"
"Tell me what happened."
Qin Tian frowned, but still waved his hand and said.
Qin Yu smiled and said, "I knew you had a sharp tongue but a soft heart, Second Brother!"
He hurriedly said, "I received news in the capital that the war between our Qin King City and Guo King City has gradually subsided. The Empress is furious and wants to summon my father to the capital."
"But in reality, she wanted to kill my father on the way to the capital, then frame our Qin family for treason and exile us so that someone else could take our place."
As he spoke, he looked at Qin Tian and said, "So, second brother, you are now the strongest in our Qin family. You must save Father and save the Qin family!"
Where did you get this information from?
Qin Tian's face darkened.
"It was a eunuch under the Second Chief Eunuch of the Imperial Palace whom I bribed, so the information is definitely accurate."
Qin Yu hurriedly said.
"Do you have the specific time and place?" Qin Tian asked again.
"That's too confidential to know, but summoning Father to the Imperial Palace should be done after the Emperor has chosen his son-in-law."
Qin Yu hurriedly said.
"Alright, I understand. Don't make any rash moves."
Qin Tian waved his hand.
"Yes, Second Brother!"
Qin Yu's face lit up with joy. "I will definitely come and inform you, Second Brother, once I have received further information."
After he finished speaking, he looked at Guo Feng and cupped his hands in greeting. "Young Master Guo, Qin Wangcheng has no ulterior motives. Please ask Young Master Guo to plead with Her Majesty the Empress on our behalf."
"Oh."
Guo Feng couldn't help but laugh when he saw the scene before him.
Qin Yu didn't try to hide it from Guo Feng; she told him about it directly, deliberately making him aware of it.
They wanted him to convey this message to the Empress.
However.
Is it really that simple?
Guo Feng was skeptical.
Having witnessed the Empress's methods, Guo Feng realized that the game of power is never simple.
All parties will resort to various schemes for their own benefit.
Moreover, the longer he stayed in the capital, the more he felt the undercurrents surging within it.
A multi-party game.
If you're not careful, you'll be dragged into this mess. People who aren't quick-witted probably won't last a month in the capital.
He then waved to Qin Yu, "Don't worry, as long as Marquis Qin Xiang raises the banner of punishing the traitor, Her Majesty the Empress will definitely not let anything happen to him."
He paused for a moment, then said, "Of course, I will also explain Qin Wangcheng's loyalty to Her Majesty the Empress."
"Thank you very much, Young Master Guo!"
Qin Yu quickly bowed in greeting.
"Alright, you can all leave now. I still have to go participate in the Imperial Son-in-Law Competition."
Guo Feng waved his hand.
“I’ve been in the capital for quite some time and know a lot of people. Young Master Guo, please allow me to accompany you and do my best to help you.”
Qin Yu is now extremely polite to Guo Feng.
"Alright."
Guo Feng didn't seem to care much, and nodded, "Then let's go together."
After he finished speaking, he led everyone out of the front hall.
The old man was still kneeling on the ground, but he still made him get up and follow.
The old man stood up, first thanked Guo Feng, and then immediately apologized to Qin Tian.
Afterwards, everyone left the mansion and boarded the carriage.
Soon, they left the Imperial City and arrived at the Literary Academy in the Upper Capital District.
The Academy of Scribes is a place where scribes are elected every three years.
It occupies a huge area.
There are dozens of houses and huts.
The plaza at the entrance is large enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people.
At this time, the coming and going of carriages was like a flowing river, gathering the most outstanding talents from all over the world.
"The Empress's criteria for choosing a husband this time are actually quite lenient."
“Those who are direct descendants of noble families of the third rank or above, or true disciples of sects of the third rank or above, under 100 years old, and of the seventh rank or above.”
"Or, under fifty years old, or above the ninth rank, first level."
"These conditions are readily available to any third-class king or third-class sect."
