Gao Wu Da Qin: You don't want your secret to be known, do you?

Chapter 32 My dad's blood pressure suddenly spiked!

The atmosphere in the study is suffocating, even for fish. New 66 Bookstore →

The old man's eyes held a mixture of anger, worry, surprise, and helplessness.

His left hand habitually tucked two fingers together, as if he was pondering whether to take off his belt and give Qin Feng a profound fatherly love.

Seeing that he was about to be beaten, Qin Feng felt he had to do something.

In a moment of inspiration, Qin Feng remembered the red invitation he had received earlier.

If I give the invitation to my dad, I think he'll calm down!

After all, that invitation was a great opportunity!

Once Qin Feng understood this, he reached into his pocket and took out a bright red invitation card with gold lettering. He carefully placed it on the desk. "Dad, I found this in the park yesterday while I was jogging."

Qin Wuyang stopped pulling on his belt, picked up the invitation, and glanced at it. "This thing looks so familiar!"

Qin Feng was taken aback. "Dad, you recognize this?"

Qin Wuyang glared at him, and Qin Feng stood to the side in fear, not daring to utter a sound.

Qin Wuyang held the invitation, flipping it over from side to side, his expression growing increasingly serious. He had been leaning back in his chair, but now he abruptly sat up, his body stiffening at a ninety-degree angle. Beads of sweat dripped from his forehead, his hands trembled uncontrollably, and a choked cough escaped his throat. His face flushed red, and he slumped onto the table, managing to say with difficulty, "Medicine!"

Qin Feng was completely bewildered and hurriedly shouted outside, "Mom! Dad's had a relapse! Medicine!"

My mom rushed in from outside, holding a bottle of blood pressure medication. "What's wrong? Why is your blood pressure so high? You've been recovered for over six months!"

After taking a few pills, Qin Wuyang finally let out a long sigh. He slumped weakly in the chair, holding up the bright red wedding invitation in one hand to signal to his mother. 🍧☠ 🐊♥

My mom reached out and took the wedding invitation, ready to open it!

The old man raised his hand to stop the mother's movement, weakly saying, "We can't take it apart!"

Looking at the gold-embossed character "壹" on the bright red wedding invitation, Mom hesitated and asked, "What's going on here? Whose wedding invitation is this? Should we go and give a gift?"

The old man said, "This time, it's not us giving money as a gift; it's them giving us money as a gift."

My mom beamed, "It's such a good thing that someone gave us a gift! We were already short of money this month, and this is wonderful!"

Mom was laughing when suddenly it dawned on her that something was wrong. "Wait a minute, why are you giving us a wedding gift? We've been married for so many years! Our son is all grown up! What kind of wedding gift are you giving us?!"

"Could it be that this is money intended for our son to use as inheritance funds?"

Looking at his confused mother's bewildered expression, the father said, "You guessed right, it's a marriage certificate prepared for our son."

His mother looked at Qin Feng and said, "How many times have I told you not to date? Don't date! You'll have plenty of boyfriends when you go to Xianyang and get into university, but you just won't listen and insist on dating..."

Qin Feng felt so wronged. "I've kept myself pure, how can I have a relationship like this!"

Dad, say something!

The father finally interrupted the mother, "Stop scolding your son. This marriage certificate is more like an invitation to death than a marriage certificate."

Mom exclaimed, "What exactly is going on?!"

The old man stared at the ceiling and said in a distant voice, "This story begins with Xi Shi, the most beautiful woman in the world."

"At the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, the states of Yue and Wu became enemies. In order to avenge his previous defeat, King Goujian of Yue adopted the advice of his strategists and used a honey trap, sending the beautiful Xi Shi to seduce King Fuchai and bring chaos to the state of Wu."

"Later, with the help of Xi Shi, the Yue Kingdom truly achieved a comeback and destroyed the Wu Kingdom in one fell swoop."

"After the King of Yue avenged his great enemy, Xi Shi, the meritorious official, faced a dilemma. After all, she was Fuchai's concubine. If the King of Yue accepted her, it would be a loss of royal authority. But if he ignored her, it would be unfair to Xi Shi's contributions. At this critical moment, Fan Li, the richest man in Yue and the richest man in the Spring and Autumn Period, took Xi Shi away and her whereabouts became unknown."

After this incident, no one paid attention to what happened to Xi Shi and Fan Li later. Later, the Qi envoy used the excuse that Chu was dividing its forces to fight among the other states and that its own country was vulnerable to attack to lure Yue into attacking Chu. King Wujiang of Yue followed the Qi envoy's advice and turned to attack Chu.

"However, the Yue Kingdom was unaware that King Wei of Chu had long harbored the ambition to destroy Yue. He had sent his minister Zhao Hua to infiltrate Yue for decades, and finally, the opportunity arrived. Chu annihilated Yue in one fell swoop. Chu's general Xiang Wu beheaded King Wujiang of Yue. The king of Yue deserved to die, and since he had no son, Yue was doomed!"

"After the fall of the Yue state, the people of Yue rebelled fiercely, and the states of Qi and Qin secretly supported them, which gave the Chu state a great headache."

"The State of Chu did not want to govern the Yue region, so it mobilized its people to find Fan Li, the former King of Yue, and wanted him to guard the Yue region on its behalf."

"But Fan Li was enjoying a blissful life with Xi Shi at the time, and he grew tired of being a king and the riches of the world, so he simply withdrew from the scene."

"At this time, people learned that Xi Shi was eventually taken away by Fan Li and that the two now had a daughter. People later found out where they lived in seclusion."

"This Fan Li was no ordinary man. He possessed the wealth of the world and was hailed as the ancestor of merchants in the Spring and Autumn Period. Some people called him Master Shang, implying that he was ranked alongside Confucius. He was the master of the merchant school."

"However, Fan Li did not like to be a master of a school of thought. He was well aware that his exposed body would arouse the jealousy of the world, all because of his wealth. So Fan Li devised a scheme."

"At his daughter's 100-day celebration, Fan Li invited nine of the most powerful families from the seven kingdoms, and presented each of them with one of nine marriage contracts!"

"Fan Li said that his wealth came from the world, so when he died, it should be returned to the world. Therefore, after his death, all his wealth would go to his only daughter! Whoever can collect nine marriage certificates can propose to his daughter on her coming-of-age ceremony. If his daughter agrees, a mysterious person will appear at their wedding with a tenth marriage certificate. Once all ten marriage certificates are collected, Fan Li's immense wealth will reappear in the world!"

"Thus, each of these marriage certificates became a deadly poison!"

"Under the whole world, no one doesn't want Fan Li's wealth, and no one doesn't want the most beautiful woman in the land!"

"As far as I know, the prominent family in Yan that received the marriage certificate back then fell from grace in just ten years. The entire family was killed, leaving only a dog and one person. Later, that marriage certificate fell into the hands of another prominent family, and that family also quickly went extinct!"

"In short, this marriage certificate is a death warrant from the King of Hell; whoever sees it will die!"

After Dad finished speaking, Mom and Qin Feng stared at each other, dumbfounded.

Holy crap!

What kind of auspicious marriage certificate is this? It's clearly a death warrant from the Black and White Impermanence!

Looking at the marriage certificate, Mom gritted her teeth and said, "No, burn it!"

"Burned?" Dad glanced at Mom. "You're overthinking it. This marriage contract was commissioned by Fan Li with the most famous Mohist master, Mozi! The Yin-Yang School's Emperor Di Jun! The Strategist Guiguzi Su Qin! This invitation itself is a magical artifact; it definitely won't burn. Moreover, it's guaranteed by all the schools of thought. If anyone tries to force or harass Fan Li's daughter, then one of the most powerful schools—Mohism, Yin-Yang, Strategists, Military Strategists, Legalism, and Confucianism—will receive the mysterious tenth marriage contract. They will gain access to Fan Li's wealth and simultaneously begin a thorough purge of everyone Fan Li's daughter has ever interacted with. Regardless of whether you've wronged her, you'll die!"

The mother was stunned. "Then, what should we do? Isn't our son going to die soon?"

The old man rubbed his temples and after a long while muttered, "I have to ask Jing Ke about this. With my knowledge, I'm completely incapable of solving this problem."

My mom said, "Then make the call!"

The old man said, "I already called. I called before I called Xiaofeng! Jing Ke said it's Golden Week now, and tickets are hard to buy! He's queuing to buy train tickets."

Mom said impatiently, "Come by spaceship! Spaceships aren't expensive!"

The old man looked distressed. "What are you thinking? Jing Ke's credit card is bankrupt, he's a blacklisted individual in the six kingdoms! He's already restricted from high-end consumption, he can't possibly ride a spaceship, he'd be lucky to even be able to travel by car!"

"Go and cook. Jing Ke will surely have a solution!"

"I have great confidence in my brother Jing Ke!"

His mother sighed helplessly and walked outside. As she left, she gave Qin Feng a strange smile and said, "Son, make sure your face is protected. Don't hurt it. A man's face is the most important thing when he travels far and wide!"

Qin Feng didn't understand what his mother meant.

But Qin Feng soon understood.

Before long, the sharp sound of a belt tearing through the air came from the study, followed by screams of pain from one person after another!
