It is a shameful event for the Liu family that the body of the owner of Liu Zhuang was stolen.
The Liu family conducted a blanket search across the city that day, but after a few days, they still did not find any whereabouts of the owner Liu's body.
The Second Master Liu, showing the appearance of a kind second uncle, presided over the funeral of Master Liu.
Because the body could not be found, when the body was buried, it could only be temporarily replaced by a clothes tomb.
Looking at the burial of his father's clothes in the tomb, but the body is unknown and cannot be buried in the ground, Liu Baixue's hands in the sleeves quietly clenched into fists.
That night, Liu Baixue quietly went to investigate his second uncle through the secret passage, but met a few men in black at the manor. During the fight, Liu Baixue had an accidental illness and was discovered by Liu Erzhuang's owner.
When he grabbed Liu Baixue's wrist, he paused, and looked at Liu Baixue in surprise: "You stole the forbidden technique of our Liu family!"
Liu Baixue withdrew her hand, her expression was indifferent, and she turned around to leave.
"I just said, what kind of martial arts is crazy. After all these years, my good elder brother can't cure it. It turns out that it is the Liu family's forbidden art. I actually underestimated you. You have the guts to be like me. I like it."
After finishing speaking, Master Liu Er stroked his beard and laughed.
Liu Baixue didn't want to get too entangled with her second uncle, so she was about to leave, but at this moment, the owner of Liu Erzhuang suddenly said, "I can cure you."
As soon as these words came out, Liu Baixue couldn't help but stopped, and looked back at him, waiting for him to say the conditions.
Sure enough, the owner of Liu Erzhuang looked at Liu Baixue's exquisite face and said: "I can cure you, but you have to promise me to marry the young master of the Bai family."
The Bai family, a family that has risen suddenly in recent years, is second only to the Liu family villa in the Jianghu.
As for the young master of the Bai family, she has met a few times, but she doesn't have much impression. All he knew was that he seemed to have proposed marriage to their family but was rejected by her father.
At that time, she didn't care about her children, so she didn't care.
If in the past, the second uncle raised this condition, she might have really agreed, but now she has already pretended.
Thinking about her life that was about to end, Liu Baixue hesitated. She didn't immediately agree to Master Liu Er, but said, "I have to think about it."
The Second Master Liu smiled, patted Liu Baixue on the shoulder, and said earnestly: "It's okay, think about it, Second Uncle is waiting for you."
After finishing speaking, he laughed and turned to leave.
After returning home, Liu Baixue thought about this, so she went to Zhao Zhitong and Qiao Muchen, and told them about her second uncle's plan.
Zhao Zhitong was amazed: "Marry with the Bai family? Why does your second uncle insist that you marry with the Bai family? Is it to strengthen the family?"
Liu Baixue shook her head: "I'm also thinking about my second uncle's intentions. The Liu family and the Bai family have always lived in peace. When my father was alive, the Bai family had mentioned marriage, but my father refused."
Qiao Muchen: "It must be beneficial for your second uncle to agree. Your second uncle probably wants to get something from the Bai family."
After all, the owner of Liu Er Zhuang will not engage in unprofitable business.
Zhao Zhitong asked: "Xiaoxue, what do you think?"
Liu Baixue pursed her lower lip, and said, "Pretend to agree first, and see what Second Uncle wants to do?"
Zhao Zhitong and Qiao Muchen actually thought so too, but.
Zhao Zhitong: "Brother, do you want to tell him?"
Liu Baixue shook her head: "Don't tell him for now, lest you show your feet and let the second uncle notice."
Although Zhao Zhitong felt that the little brother might be sad like this, but according to the little brother's temperament, if he knew the truth, he was afraid that the play would not be true, and it might really make Master Liu Er see something.
So, he nodded in agreement.

Afterwards, with the benefit of Liu Erzhuang, Liu Baixue quickly took control of the power of the Liu family.
In order to find out the real cause of his father's death and investigate the real conspiracy of his second uncle, Liu Baixue also pretended to marry the Bai family.
As for Liu Baixue's sudden power, Liu Yi'an didn't react too aggressively.
After all, Liu Baixue had already greeted Liu Yi'an, and she showed Liu Yi'an all kinds of evidence that her second uncle had exceeded his authority over the years, and convinced Liu Yi'an that the second uncle was not as desireless as he appeared on the surface.
Liu Baixue: "Brother, Second Uncle's conspiracy is probably very serious, so let's listen to Second Uncle first, I will temporarily act as the owner of the villa. After Second Uncle is moved out and Lingjian Villa is saved, the villa will The younger sister of the lord should return it."
Liu Baixue said so.
Liu Yi'an is not the kind of person who loves power, and he knows what kind of person his sister is, so he doesn't think that her sister will compete with him for the position of owner.
And Liu Baixue really has no intention of snatching the position of the owner of the villa. She knows exactly what kind of person her elder brother is. Now that the eldest brother is the owner of the villa, he will only become the puppet of the second uncle.
Therefore, she must take power first and pull back the power of the Liu family bit by bit.
After listening to Liu Baixue's narration, Liu Yi'an expressed his understanding, but what he totally disagreed with was that Liu Baixue agreed to the marriage arranged by her second uncle!
"Xiaoxue, don't you like Zhao Yu? Why did you agree to the second uncle to marry the Bai family? Did the second uncle threaten you? Don't be afraid, you have your brother backing you up. Let's reject this arrangement."
Liu Baixue shook her head and insisted: "Brother, don't try to persuade me, I voluntarily agreed to this marriage."
Liu Yi'an couldn't understand it at all, he didn't want his sister to lose happiness because of this: "Then do you like Bai Siyuan?"
Liu Baixue said indifferently: "How do you like it? So what if you don't like it? Anyway, I'm a dying person, at least marrying the Bai family will strengthen our family, won't it?"
And at this moment, Zhao Yu, who had just heard the news of the engagement between the Bai family and the Liu family, rushed over impulsively, and just heard Liu Baixue's words, he came out with eyes full of injuries, and asked, "So, what's the matter?" Is that why you have not promised me?"
Zhao Yu's sudden appearance made Liu Baixue break his defense in an instant. She almost subconsciously wanted to deny it, but she finally endured it and just looked at him indifferently.
Seeing Zhao Yu approaching, Liu Yi'an hurriedly stood up and wanted to leave, making room for the two of them.
"Brother, you don't have to leave." Liu Baixue stopped Liu Yi'an who was about to leave, and the two of them were alone together, she was afraid that she would not be ruthless.
Taking a deep breath, he said to Zhao Yu with firm eyes: "Yes, this is my reason, you can see clearly now, I am such a vain person. You go, marrying into the Bai family is of my own free will. No one is forcing me."
Zhao Yu's eyes were full of pain, he was clearly denying what he heard, comforting himself, Liu Baixue must have ulterior motives to hurt him on purpose.
However, at this moment, he was indeed stung. Under the indifferent gaze of the other party, he instantly threw away his armor and fled.
As soon as Zhao Yu left, Liu Baixue also slumped on the chair in an instant, as if all the strength in her body had been sucked away.
Liu Yian opened his mouth, wanting to comfort him.
Liu Baixue said weakly: "Brother, I'm fine, you go back first, I want to be alone for a while."
Liu Yi'an knew her sister's temper, once she paid attention, it would be difficult for her to make changes, so she could only leave with a sigh, and let her think about it alone, hoping that she could think about it on her own.
