Chapter111: Slaps on the Face Again and Again
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Liang Wei and Liu Fuyun sat on the main seat, but because of their seniority, they were not on equal footing.
Liu Shimei’s uncles were all sitting at the bottom. They were clearly fathers who had come to pick up their daughter from their maternal grandfather’s house, but they had been forced into a family feud!
“Father-in-law…”
Liu Fuyun had just opened his mouth when Liang Wei snorted and said, “Lord Grand Chancellor, please don’t address me like this. No matter how you look at it, it’s not appropriate!”
“Umm… Father-in-law, your words were a great insult to me!” Liu Fuyun had just said the first sentence and was already being rebuked. How could his expression be good?
Liang Wei’s firepower had always been very strong. He had endured this matter for a long time. He was waiting for Liu Fuyun to come and vent his anger on Liu Fuyun. It was not easy to wait for an opportunity. How could he let it go?
He snorted coldly and said, “I did have a Son-in-law relationship with the Grand Chancellor, but now… My daughter is no longer alive, and your Liu family’s Madam is no longer my daughter. Of the two bloodlines my daughter left behind, one is dead and the other is injured. The injured one was chased out of the house by the Grand Chancellor. May I ask, Grand Chancellor, what relationship do I have with you?”
Impolite and unreasonable.
Viciously straightforward!
However, it was not right to say that he was being unreasonable. He stated it very clearly:
My relationship with you, Liu Jun, is all because of my daughter. Even if my daughter is gone, at least, my granddaughter is with you. However, for so many years, you, Liu Jun, have not interacted with my Liang family and have not allowed my grandchildren to return to my maternal grandfather’s house. This relationship has long existed in name only!
More importantly, my grandson has already died early, and my granddaughter has been beaten half to death by you and chased out of the house. Doesn’t that mean that even the nominal son-in-law relationship no longer exists?
Liu Fuyun’s face turned green and white at his words, but he still said patiently, “No matter what Father-in-law thinks, we can’t ignore Shimei’s marriage, right? If there’s any sort of mistake, we won’t be able to explain it to the Emperor. Shimei can’t escape punishment just like that!”
He had pinpointed the main point!
This was the intelligence that a Grand Chancellor should have!
Liang Wei was a military general, so his brain was not that complicated. However, the Liang family had been able to survive for so many years in the crevice of valuing literature over martial arts, so he was not stupid!
“If you insist on being calculative about this, it doesn’t matter.” Liang Wei sat on the armchair, crossed his arms, and bowed to the upper left. “In a while, I will enter the palace to meet the Emperor and ask for permission for our family’s Shimei to be married off from the Liang Residence! I think, on account of the fact that my Liang Residence only has this one daughter, His Majesty will agree.”
Even if they did not agree at the start, couldn’t they just let King Dun Yu cause trouble?
This was the benefit of Silly Second Prince’s stupidity!
Liu Fuyun gritted his teeth when he heard this!
The Grand Chancellor was expected to be big-hearted. However, not every Grand Chancellor was magnanimous.
For Liu Fuyun to be able to reach his current position, he could be considered a very tolerant person. However, facing the aggressive stance of the Liang family, he actually felt that he could not tolerate it anymore!
“Where is the Shimei herself? She’s the person involved, so she should come out and speak personally!”
On the other side, First Uncle Liang Yong suddenly snorted and said, “So, could it be that Lord Grand Chancellor thinks that the only person you can manipulate in my Liang Family is the daughter you chased out of the house, so you want to start with her to make it easier to deal with?”
“Big Brother…” Liu Fuyun opened his mouth to speak.
Liang Yong said, “Father doesn’t dare to be related to the Grand Chancellor. I, Liang Yong, am only a third-grade military officer. I don’t dare to be related to you as well!”
Liu Fuyun had no room to speak in the middle of this group of people. His face was slapped again and again!
He decided not to take the roundabout route and made his words clear.. “Since that’s the case, may I ask everyone, how can I bring my daughter home?”
