The gray-clothed old man said this, glanced at Li Qiufeng, and then continued: "Xu Fu is treacherous and vicious, mercenary, and ruthless in doing things. His sons and daughters have followed suit. They are all cruel and cunning. In order to win Xu Fu's favor, Being able to inherit Xu Fu's family business, he has fought openly and secretly for many years. He has used many despicable methods, which are more vicious than dealing with the enemy. The five sons have been preparing to deal with their brothers and sisters secretly. At this time, they killed Xu Fu and simply did nothing. , intending to take the opportunity to get rid of all his brothers and sisters, so that he can be the lord of the city with peace of mind.

"It's just that he just summoned his trusted generals, only to hear the shouts of killing outside the palace, and he was surrounded by a large army of soldiers. The five young masters were shocked, and they didn't know what happened. Soldiers were mobilized to guard the palace, and countless soldiers had rushed in. Although the five young masters resisted desperately, they were outnumbered and were killed in pieces. In the end, they were either killed or captured.

"The fifth son had his right arm chopped off and suffered countless injuries. He was dragged by several soldiers to the stone steps of the main hall, where he knelt on the ground while being pressed down. There were more than a dozen people standing at the entrance of the hall, all of whom were his brothers. That man was Xu Fu's second son. Seeing the fifth son being dragged over by the sergeant like a dead dog, the second son pointed at the fifth son and yelled at him, and the rest of the sons were also filled with righteous indignation. Dare to kill. The scolding reached the point of anger, several young masters rushed down the stone steps, punched and kicked the fifth young master, and in the blink of an eye, they beat him to the brink of death.

"The second son was worried that the brothers would beat the fifth son to death, so he hurriedly stopped them, and then said to the fifth son, you dare to kill your father, you are not as good as a beast! The brothers have already discussed, and you will be sentenced to death , beheaded to show the public, do you accept or not?! The five young masters saw the appearance of the brothers, some pretended to be angry, some had gloomy faces and fierce eyes, and some gloated and sneered, knowing that even if they kowtowed and begged, these People will never let him go, so he laughed instead of anger, and ridiculed that all the brothers wanted to seize the throne of the city lord, but he was forced to take the lead, but made wedding dresses for the brothers. If not, how could everyone To mobilize heavy troops in a hurry to besiege the palace? Today I am defeated, and I don’t blame heaven or earth. I only regret that I didn’t do it sooner, otherwise my wife wouldn’t commit suicide with hatred. The Xu family has an ancestor who is not as good as a beast like Xu Fu. The killing will not stop unless the children and grandchildren are cut off. I have no regrets in dying today, because everyone will kill each other sooner or later, and the end will be even more miserable than myself!
"Everyone was quite embarrassed by what the fifth young master said, and no one spoke for a while. After a long while, the second young master coughed twice, scolded the fifth young master, and then said to the brothers, this beast killed him. Father, we can't tolerate him! In my opinion, let's draw our swords and kill him together. Not only will we avenge our father, but we can also use this traitor's blood as a witness of our brotherly alliance! Everyone listened to what the second son said, There was no objection, they drew out their big knives together and surrounded the fifth young master, when the second young master shouted, more than a dozen big knives chopped down on the fifth young master's head and body, cutting him into five or six pieces at once.

"After the brothers of the Xu family killed the fifth son, they immediately gathered in the main hall to discuss how to quell the chaos. They just didn't say a few words, and they quarreled for the position of the city lord. A dozen people were divided into four groups. Each group The leaders of the group all planned to be the lord of the city themselves, and they refused to give in to each other, shouting and scolding endlessly, and finally drew their swords to confront each other. The sergeants brought by the crowd also raised their swords and guns, shouting and cursing each other, and they were about to fight Just at this moment, Xu Fu's eldest daughter rushed over with her husband, and persuaded everyone not to fight, and to discuss what they had to do.

"Xu Fu's eldest son had an affair with his concubine more than ten years ago. After Xu Fu found out, he summoned the eldest son and his concubine and cursed him. The concubine chopped off her hands and feet and put them in the wine jar, causing her to suffer terribly, but she couldn't die. The eldest son watched his lover suffer such miserable torture, and was terrified in his heart, begging Xu Fu to forgive the two of them. Xu Fu smiled yin Then he said to his eldest son, you beast dared to have an affair with Lao Tzu's woman, you are really impatient! I originally planned to pass on the power to you, but I didn't expect you to be so useless, don't blame me for not being sympathetic. After Xu Fu finished cursing, he eunuched the eldest son himself, then cut off his tendons in his hands and hamstrings, tied him up with iron chains, locked him in a stone room with his concubine, and gave him only a little rough food every day. and dirty water, allowing the guards to beat and insult them. At the beginning, the eldest son and his concubine begged Xu Fu to forgive him, but after several months, Xu Fu not only did not release them, but also insulted them more and more. People knew that Xu Fu would never let him go. If he survived, the torture would become more cruel. Frustrated, disappointed and panicked, the two committed suicide one after another. Xu Fu did not expect that the two would have the courage to commit suicide. He was furious because he He hadn't tortured the two of them enough, he didn't want the two of them to die, and there was nowhere to vent his anger, so he executed all the guards guarding the eldest son and concubines Ling Chi.

"After the tragic death of the eldest son, in order of age, Xu Fu's eldest daughter became the head of the brothers and sisters. This eldest daughter is different from the rest, she is very peaceful. When the brothers and sisters are fighting each other and fighting for power and profit, she is in the mansion. The godson never participated in the fights among the brothers and sisters, so he had no conflict of interest with everyone. Just when everyone drew their swords and an internal strife was inevitable, Xu Fu's eldest daughter rushed to the scene and tried hard to persuade the brothers and sisters Don't kill each other, lest you be ridiculed by others, the Xu family is also in danger of being overthrown.

"Although everyone is determined to compete for the position of the city lord, they wish they could swallow their opponents alive, but the four groups are equally powerful, and each group is worried that they are too arrogant. The other three groups join hands to deal with themselves, and they must be defeated Seeing the eldest sister and his wife coming to make peace, the four groups descended from the donkey, no longer facing each other, and agreed to gather in the main hall seven days later to elect a new city lord.

"After everyone left the palace, they were busy buying Xu Fu's vassals and cronies, thinking that they had used them. They secretly gathered soldiers and horses, plotting schemes day and night. These people had all made up their minds. If they couldn't be elected as the city lord, they would send troops immediately , kill all the brothers and sisters, and the throne of the city lord is in his pocket."
