Starting as the young master of a medicine shop, he practiced swordsmanship for twenty years.

Chapter 283 Everyone is waiting for that legendary figure! Lu Xuan!

As Shen Yunwei spoke, he glanced at Liu Bifu's face. Seeing that the other party's expression relaxed a little, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"Starting tomorrow, I will change the name of all the relief stalls to the county government."

Shen Yunwei knew clearly that Liu Bifu, as the chief official of Dengfeng County, held real power.

If they offend him, the Shen family will have trouble taking a single step forward in this city.

Shen Yunwei thought about it again. His Shen family had been giving alms in the name of Lu Qingqing, the future mistress of the Shen family, for more than half a year, and praying was almost enough.

Over the past six months, due to Lu Qingqing's good deeds, the Shen family's reputation in the hearts of the people has been growing day by day, but it has also attracted some unnecessary attention.

For example, this Lord Liu in front of us.

Next, there are only a few months left before it’s a full year.

The one-year relief period was a decision I had made at the beginning, one to pray for Lu Qingqing, and the other for the vast number of suffering people.

In the remaining months, we will provide relief to the poor people in the city in the name of the county government.

In this way, Liu Bifu could save his life and maintain a good relationship with the government, and the charity work could be successfully completed without causing any criticism.

Shen Yunwei was secretly calculating, with that kind smile still on his face, as if everything was done willingly and planned in advance.

After hearing what Shen Yunwei said, the smile on Liu Bifu's face deepened a little. It was obvious that he was very satisfied with Shen Yunwei's understanding.

Liu Bifu nodded and said in a gentle tone: "Mr. Shen is indeed a sensible man."

"Since the Shen family is willing to help the people in the name of the county government, then I will naturally do my part and fully support your Shen family."

"This way, the people can both benefit and feel the care of the county government. Isn't that the best of both worlds?"

Shen Yunwei quickly bowed and said respectfully, "Master Liu is absolutely right!"

"The Shen family is only doing its bit. It is my honor to be able to help the county government."

Liu Bifu finally nodded with satisfaction, picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then smiled.

"Master Shen, don't be nervous. I came here today to share in the Shen family's good fortune."

"Your Shen family is celebrating a great occasion today, and I have prepared a small gift. I hope Master Shen will not despise it."

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the man who had spoken rudely just now immediately brought out an exquisite gift box and handed it to Shen Yunwei.

"Since the matter has been settled, I will not bother you any further."

"Master Shen, please go about your business. I am very busy and will bother you another day."

Shen Yunwei quickly took the gift box, a look of gratitude on his face: "Master Liu, you are so polite!"

"It is an honor for the Shen family that you are here. What gifts are you bringing?"

"Our Shen family is truly flattered!"

Liu Bifu laughed heartily and waved his hand: "Master Shen, you don't have to be polite. This is a small token of my appreciation.

"Today is a big day for the Shen family. I won't bother you any more. I'll chat with Mr. Shen another day."

Shen Yunwei quickly bowed and saluted: "Goodbye, Sir Liu!"

"I will definitely pay you a visit someday and personally thank you, Master Liu!"

Liu Bifu nodded, turned around and left with a few followers.

Shen Yunwei watched Liu Bifu leave, the smile on his face gradually faded, replaced by a solemn look.

It seems that the Shen family's reputation in the provincial capital has obviously aroused the fear of this official.

However, there was nothing wrong with what Lord Liu did. For the Shen family, a family of doctors, it was a bit excessive to have such a high reputation.

Shen Yunwei was afraid that Lord Liu had other intentions towards the Shen family.

And Shen Yunwei's guess was indeed correct.

As soon as Liu Bifu went out, he got directly into the official sedan chair of the county government.

The kind smile on his face disappeared in an instant, replaced by a sinister and fierce look.

The temperament became very scary, as if he had become a different person.

The legal advisor who had been following closely outside his sedan chair was the man who had just been sarcastic to the Shen family.

At this moment, he was slightly bent over, his eyes looking around from time to time, looking sneaky.

"grown ups!"

He leaned over to the sedan window, lowered his voice, his face full of doubt, and whispered through the curtains of the sedan, "Is this all we need to do?"

"idiot!"

When Liu Bifu heard the man outside talking without restraint, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and his tone was full of impatience and disgust, "Why are you asking so many questions!"

This loser actually had the guts to ask him about this kind of thing in public. Didn't he know that walls have ears?

Liu Bifu cursed in his heart, frowned tightly, and the anger in his heart rose.

He slightly lifted the curtain of the sedan chair, and his eyes swept across the master outside like a knife, with a hint of warning in his tone: "Shut your mouth."

"Say one more word and watch your head."

The lawyer was frightened by Liu Bifu's eyes and quickly lowered his head, not daring to say anything more.

He secretly regretted that he had spoken too hastily and forgotten what Liu Bifu was most taboo about.

It means talking about these private matters in public.

Liu Bifu snorted coldly, lowered the curtain of the sedan chair, leaned back in the sedan chair and closed his eyes to rest.

There was still a hint of coldness on his face, but he was thinking about his next plan in his mind.

The Shen family is one of the largest families in Dengfeng County, with strong financial resources and high reputation.

Since taking office, Liu Bifu has been eyeing this piece of fat meat.

It’s just that the Shen family’s prestige is too high, and they have the support of many forces, so he has never found a suitable opportunity to take action.

"Shen Yunwei, this old fox, is quite sensible."

Liu Bifu sneered in his heart, "But this alone is not enough."

What Liu Bifu wants is not only the reputation of the Shen family, but also the wealth of the Shen family.

It’s true that he has set his sights on the Shen family, a big fat sheep.

The Shen family has been operating in this capital city for many years and is extremely wealthy with a deep foundation.

Especially in recent years, the Shen family's business has been booming, and there is a trend of it becoming the largest family in the city.

Liu Bifu had long been jealous of the Shen family's wealth and had always wanted to find an opportunity to make a fortune.

Making a big fuss about the Shen family's charity was just the first step in his plan. This time, Liu Bifu's goal was to weaken the Shen family's reputation for a while.

When the time is right, he will take action against the Shen family.

He knew in his heart that if he wanted to completely bite off the fat piece of meat of the Shen family, he had to proceed step by step and take it slow.

"It seems that we have to put more pressure on the Shen family." Liu Bifu thought to himself, with a sneer on his face.

The sedan chair of the county government moved slowly forward, but Liu Bifu's thoughts became clearer and clearer.

He decided to go back and immediately arrange for people to secretly investigate the weaknesses of the Shen family.

As long as he finds the weakness of the Shen family, he can decisively take action against the Shen family.

A mere ant at the marrow refining stage is not qualified to possess so many martial arts resources.

As Liu Bifu thought about it, he felt very painful.

The Shen family has been giving alms for more than half a year. How rich must they be?

This is all my money!
Giving away all that money to the poor is simply a sin!
At the same time, Shen Yunwei stood at the door of the mansion, watching Liu Bifu's sedan chair go away.

The smile on his face gradually disappeared, replaced by a solemn look.

However, Shen Yunwei turned around and went back to the mansion to greet other guests with a smile.

"Father, Lord Liu..." A man who was about eighteen years old walked up and asked in a low voice.

This is one of Shen Yunwei's five sons, the third son born to a concubine, Shen Wenfeng.

Shen Yunwei waved his hand, signaling him not to say anything more, and then whispered, "Wen Feng, go and make arrangements. From tomorrow on, all the charity stalls will be operated under the name of the county government.

"In addition, the scale and method of relief should be adjusted appropriately. We must not be as ostentatious as before."

Shen Wenfeng nodded and replied in a low voice: "Yes, father, I will arrange it right away."

Shen Yunwei took a deep breath, looked up at the red silk wedding characters all over the yard, and felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Just then, there was a slight sound of footsteps coming from the front.

Shen Yunwei turned his head and saw an old man walking slowly towards him, supported by a young man.

Behind the two of them were two middle-aged men about four or five years old.

The cuff on one of them's right arm was empty, and it was obvious that he had lost an arm.

These two middle-aged men are Qian Hao and Li Daren from the yellow-level Xuanniao Guards!
The identities of the old man and the young man in front are naturally self-evident.

It was Lu Xuan’s biological father Lu Jiahe and Lu Xuan’s half-brother Lu Yun’an.

Lu Jiahe took a few steps closer, a gentle smile on his face, and said, "My dear, the Shen family is having a big celebration today, so I'm here to lend a hand and see if there's anything I can do to help."

"Qingqing is being taken care of by Xiao Yuan, so I feel relieved."

Upon hearing this, Shen Yunwei hurried forward, his face full of smiles. "Oh, father-in-law, your coming to Dengfeng County in person has already brought honor to the Shen family!"

"How can I ask you to come out and help?"

Lu Jiahe waved his hand and said calmly, "Mr. Shen, you are too polite. Since our two families have become relatives, we are one family."

"Today, the Shen family is very happy, which is also the great joy of my Lu family. How can I stand by and watch?"

Then, Lu Jiahe smiled slightly, his eyes swept across the red silk wedding characters all over the yard, with a hint of emotion in his tone.

"Ugh!"

“Time flies by so fast!”

"In the blink of an eye!"

"I already have two little grandchildren!"

"I don't know where Xuan'er is now."

"If Xuan'er knew that Qingqing and her child were safe, she would definitely be very happy."

Lu Jiahe came to the Shen family and stayed for two days. In fact, he was also looking forward to Lu Xuan's appearance.

It's not just Lujiahe who is looking forward to it.

In fact, in the Shen family, Shen Yunwei, Shen Yuan, and even Li Daren and Qian Hao were all waiting for that man.

That is the legendary figure among the Xuanniao Guards of Baidao Mansion!

Yes, that's right!
During the short period that Lu Xuan served as the Xuanshi of Baidao Mansion, he became a legendary figure in the eyes of all the Xuanniao Guards of Baidao Mansion.

"By the way, in-laws, our Lu family has disturbed you for two days. It's time to leave."

"I will return to Qingyun County early tomorrow morning."

"Qingqing has Xiaoyuan with her, so I can rest assured."

When Shen Yunwei heard this, he became excited and spoke quickly.

"Hey!"

"Father Lu, please stay for a few days and let me show my hospitality."

"Father Shen, I appreciate your kindness."

Lu Jiahe waved his hand, but did not dwell on this issue too much, and changed the subject.

"Qingqing has been feeling a little weak lately, so I plan to leave someone here to protect her at all times."

"Daren, please stay here and protect Qingqing for three months."

After Lu Jiahe finished speaking, he turned his gaze to Li Daren behind him, his tone somewhat serious.

Then he clasped his hands together and bowed to Li Daren, not treating him as a servant at all.

Upon hearing this, Li Daren immediately stepped forward and respectfully saluted: "Brother Lu, you don't have to be polite to me."

"Don't worry!"

"I will definitely protect Miss Qingqing."

Li Daren and Qian Hao were both specially arranged by Li Chengfeng to protect Lu Jiahe.

As for this task, no one else can get it even if they want to do it!

If Li Chengfeng was not still serving as the Xuanshi of Baidao Mansion, he would have wanted to come here in person to protect the old man of the Lu family.

After all, he is the biological father of the legendary figure Lu Xuan.

If someone knew about Lu Jiahe's identity.

Li Chengfeng estimated that the number of people who wanted to curry favor with Lu Jiahe could stretch from Baidao Mansion to Tiandu.
