”You are my son, how could I not know?”

”Plop …” Wen Zheng kneeled down in front of him.

”Father, your son has lived for more than twenty years and has nothing better to do, yet you dare to give your father face? Your son is unfilial, and your son swears that in the future, I will do things properly. From today on, Wen Zheng will die, and I will be your son again.” Wen Zhengzheng swore like Master Wen.

”You can pull it down. I'm over 60 years old this year, and it's even giving birth to a ghost … wait … what did you just call me?!” Wentong started to talk when he suddenly remembered something. He grabbed Wen Zheng's arms and asked.

Wen Zheng's hands ached from being grabbed, but he still said in confusion, ”Father … Father …”

”Ah … Madame, come quickly. Second brother is calling me father.” Wen Tong was indescribably excited when he heard Wen Zheng call him father.

In less than a day, the entire Cao Zhou City knew that the Wen Family's Second Young Master was going to change his mind. Not because of Wen Zheng, but because he was happy for Master Wen. Wen Tong was already a Bodhisattva in Cao Zhou City.

For this purpose, Wentong even set up a banquet for the officials and some of the nearby celebrities in order to announce that his son had changed his mind.

Just as everyone was enjoying their meal, the steward came to report that someone from the palace had arrived. While pondering about what the people from the imperial court were doing, Wentong hurried out to welcome them. Offending someone from the palace could only be described by one word: courting death.

”Master Wen, recently the Emperor obtained a priceless ancient painting in the East Ocean Continent. It was the real work of the famous painter Tang Yin, but a few days ago, he was unlucky enough to have it stolen by a thief and only left behind three words: I have come. ”Or … the Wen family has thirty to forty people, right?” The moment the bizarre eunuch entered the hall, he immediately went straight to the point. It was clear that if they were unable to find the painting, the lives of the entire Wen family would be in danger.

”Alright … alright. This commoner will definitely catch up with the painting. May this eunuch tell the emperor so that he can be at ease.” ”Eunuch still hasn't eaten, right? Please take a seat and eat this commoner's simple food.” There was nothing Wen Tong could do. Although he had a high status in the martial arts world, he could not offend the big red man in front of the emperor. He could only nod and agree.

”Father, let your son go. In less than a month, I will definitely bring the treasure back.” Wen Zheng said.

”Oh, who is this? White and clean. So cute. You talk big, how many experts in the palace have not been able to catch up with you for half a year, and yet you, a little kid, dare to speak so arrogantly? Fine, I'll give you two months, if you can't find me, hmph, the Wen family's little life is in your hands. ” The eunuch said in disgust.

”Hmph, I said that we won't be able to find each other in a month. I said that we'd meet again after a month!” When Wen Zheng saw him, he felt disgusted. When he spoke, he ignored his father's gaze and spoke without any trace of politeness.

”Alright … alright … However, even if you can't find it, I don't want your life. It's just that you have to promise me, if you can't find it, then you have to cut off your roots. However, if you can't come back after a month, then this crime of bullying the sovereign … hehe, I'm afraid that the Wen family will …” The eunuch's words were rude, and everyone in the hall sucked in a cold breath of air.

However, Wen Zheng's words were even more vicious than his own. ”Fine, I promise you. But you also promise me that if I find you, you will tie your roots together …”

The eunuchs were all stunned for a moment, and then they all reacted with laughter, not daring to laugh. Their expressions were extremely comical, and when they looked at the eunuch again, his face turned the color of a pig's liver, and after holding in his anger for a long while, he uttered two words, ”You're ruthless! ”Humph!” With a wave of his sleeve, he did not eat any of the Wen Mansion's coarse tea nor did he eat any of the plain food. He turned around and left.
