The one called Xiao Tian was a middle-aged man in his thirties, called Tian Hu, who had been a servant in the Su family for more than twenty years. When he heard this, his eyes and nose lit up, and he smiled.

"Thank you, master. I will leave immediately." Tian Hu respectfully saluted before retreating.

Su Fu Gui sat on the chair and closed his eyes to rest, but his mind was filled with thoughts, making it hard for him to calm down. For some reason, he had a bad premonition, as for what it was, he couldn't really say.

"Old master, old master, not good …"

Right at this moment, Tian Hu, who had just left, ran in with a shocked expression. Su Fugui opened his eyes and looked at this servant that was always calm. He didn't know what caused him to be so flustered.

Frowning, Su Fugui suppressed the nervousness that suddenly appeared in his heart and asked: "What exactly happened? Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Lord Zhizhou is here …"

"So what? It's not like it's a big deal."

If he wasn't a scholar, with his current power, it would be easy for him to do something like this in the State of Zhizhou. Thus, he didn't have a single shred of fear towards Hu Bai.

Tian Hu said with a trembling voice, "The lord of the Zhizhou region also brought a group of yamen runners. There are around four to five hundred people. They said that they are here to invite the young masters to the yamen to get to know the situation."

Su Fugui frowned even more. Although this Hu Bai had never been on good terms with him, on the surface, he still maintained a good attitude. Why did he suddenly become so bold this time?

Could it be that he had a backer?

He suddenly had a thought. Could it be that the power behind this young man was really that great?

Shaking his head, he dispelled the thought in his mind and let out a faint smile. Speaking of backing, he seemed to have nothing to be afraid of. That was under the protection of the palace, otherwise, it would have been impossible for him to be like this.

Even if the opponent was a rich young master, if he met the master behind him, he would probably have to respectfully bow, not daring to defy him in the slightest.

"Hurry and invite the lord of the prefecture in."

Su Fugui waved his hand and said in a domineering tone. He wanted to see just what kind of power Hu Bai would bring out. As he spoke, he also stood up and walked out of the reception hall to welcome Hu Bai.

"Brother Hu, it has been a long time since we last met. Your body is still as healthy as ever. This is truly a cause for celebration."

In the government, they all knew how to play the game of not smiling, but since Hu Bai was able to do so, he was naturally very proficient at it as well. It did not seem like he had come to ask the Su Clan for help at all. On the contrary, it seemed like he was here to harass an old friend who had several times the alcohol.

"You flatter me, Lord Hu. I see that you're the one who's proud and glowing with pride. It seems like you have a chance of getting a promotion?"

Su Fugui laughed, the gloominess on his face was all gone, he laughed very happily and sincerely. After all, the other party was a part of the State of Zhizhou, and he did not want to ruin his reputation. If he were to embarrass the other party, then it would be difficult for him to do anything in the future. Even if the other party was unable to do anything to him, as long as he was pierced with small shoes, it would be enough to give him a headache.

The two of them laughed as they walked into the hall. Hu Bai raised his eyes to look at the decorations of the hall and could not help but praise: "As expected of the Su Family. This style, this decoration, it is likely that not even tens of thousands of bags of silver would be able to achieve this effect.

He had his hands behind his back as he walked around the hall, evaluating the calligraphy and paintings on the walls. He did not mention the purpose of his visit at all.

At the same time, he was also slightly puzzled. Seeing Hu Bai's confident look, it seemed that he had nothing to fear, which made him somewhat suspicious. He was very clear on Hu Bai's character, he was old and steady, cunning and crafty, and if he was not completely confident, he would definitely not have interfered.

Now that he thought about it, he wasn't as optimistic about the development trend of this matter anymore. Perhaps, it wouldn't be so easy!

When this thought appeared, he immediately calmed down. The anger in his heart transformed into worry as he waited for Hu Bai to lay his cards on the table. However, Hu Bai shook his head and read the calligraphy. He did not pay much attention to him.

"Mister Hu, you never visit the Three Treasures Hall without a reason. What business do you have with me today?"

Su Fugui finally couldn't hold it in. If Hu Bo kept acting, he would have to keep on forcing a smile. This feeling was very uncomfortable, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, I almost forgot what I was doing. Look at my memory." Hu Bai patted his head, as if he had just remembered something important. With Su Fugui's guidance, he sat down on the tiger-skin chair in the middle of the room.

Hube calmly picked up the bowl and took a sip. "Good tea, good tea. Brother Su sure knows how to enjoy life."

Su Fugui smiled bitterly in a humble manner. The more Hu Bo was like this, the more uneasy he became.

"The matter is like this, your son was flirting with a woman in the Whirlwind Tower, and then was beaten up. Actually, I don't know much about the details, so I specially came over to ask Young Noble Su and the others to clarify the matter, and then return the Su Family's innocence. Believe me, I will definitely give the Su Family an explanation. "

Hu Bai sipped on his tea with a smile that was not a smile as he slowly made his intentions clear. Su Fugui was slightly angered in his heart as he looked at Hu Bai's carefree appearance.

"As far as I know, it seems to be caused by the other party. Liu Fu saw it with his own eyes, so of course Liu Fu wouldn't dare to lie to me."

He swallowed his saliva and moistened his throat, feeling that his lips were a little dry.

"I also believe that young master Ling is not such a person. The Su family has always been good, and it is absolutely impossible for young master to do such an unforgivable thing. It is precisely because of this that I want everyone to know that it is not the Su family that is at fault, but that the young man is in the wrong.

However, Su Fugui naturally wasn't stupid to such a degree, he knew that Hu Bai was just taking pleasure in Su Clan's misfortune.

"I don't know if there's any room for discussion, but my son's injuries are too severe. If we were to travel back and forth, I'm afraid it would be even more serious."

Su Fu Gui muttered to himself for a moment, and pleaded for mercy. Su Yun was his own son, and one that was passed down from generation to generation, if there was any problem, the authority of the Su Family's residence would fall to other families.
