During the Confucian era where the tradition ruled society, filial piety was the most advocated virtue. For example, the salted egg that Fan Ru was talking about, was an ancient rule that the old people could eat but not the children. This rule was even more binding than laws in ancient times.

Fan Lian heard his big brother and began to reminisce about the past, he could vaguely guess his big brother's intentions. He was trying to think of all sorts of ways to push himself towards the imperial court, and he was even fantasizing that the Fan family would forever be the loyal subject of the Great Qing Dynasty, until the end of the world.

But how could Fan Lian turn back? He did not want to turn back! At this moment, he only felt that there was a rock blocking his heart, causing him to be unable to breathe heavily.

Fan Ru's expression became incomparably regretful, "I know, I know you no longer have any other way out … Forget it, let's not talk about this anymore. Before I die, can I just beg you for one more thing? "I just want to ask you one thing …"

Once Fan Lian heard this, he quickly followed up, "Big bro, say it, as long as I can do it, I will do it with all my might!"

The eyes of the old woman, Fan Ru's sons and wives lit up. Fan Ru pointed at his children and shouted, "Kneel down to your second uncle already!"

With a bang, everyone inside and outside the house kneeled down.

"Fan Lian! I know that you are strong, even with your back against that Young Master, there are not many people in Great Qing Dynasty that can stand shoulder to shoulder with you! "I beg of you, please find me some work for these nephews and grandsons!"

"They are not the materials to do business. Let them be petty officials, alright? You can do whatever you want with my small amount of assets, you can spend whatever you want …"

What else could Fan Lian say that could cause Fan Lian to wipe his tears away? "I care, I will care. No matter if the branch family does not belong to another family, one's bloodline is still one's bloodline ah …"

Before he finished speaking, Fan Ru tightly grabbed onto Fan Lian's sleeve. "Remember, I want them as my officials in the Great Qing Dynasty! If it wasn't for your officials who are from overseas, I definitely wouldn't have allowed my children to insult our ancestors! "

With a kacha sound, a thunderclap sounded in Fan Lian's heart. His face became deathly pale. So that's why. So from the beginning till the end, before your death, you still looked down on me, and you still felt that I had disgraced my ancestors by betraying the Great Qing Dynasty with Xiao Letian?

Then why are you begging me? I am a Chinese old shopkeeper, you are looking for me to beg my ass!

When Madam Fan Ru saw the unkind expression on her brother-in-law's face, then looked at the pleading expressions of her children, she threw caution to the wind and kneeled on the ground, crying out loud. My dear uncle! Since your big brother is down to his last breath, help us! Such a big family, without your big brother to support it, we, orphans and widows, really can't support it! "If I don't have a few officials to protect me, won't I be bullied to death by others in the future …"

The old lady's cry was a signal, almost everyone in and out of the house started bawling, as though Fan Ru was already dead.

Fan Lian's entire person was spinning, and Fan Ru, who was in his embrace, was looking at him while he was speaking nonstop, "Don't forget Grandfather's teachings, don't forget Father's instructions, don't disgrace our ancestors …"

The crowd burst into tears once again. The loud sound waves had pierced into their eardrums, causing them to be on the verge of boiling.

In the end, Fan Lian could no longer hold it in, he used his palm to wipe his tears and shouted, "Alright, don't cry anymore! "I agree, I'll help you think of a way, okay …"

's father-in-law nodded in agreement. The empress dowager had to give him face, even if he wanted to. Now, everyone had an official to work for him.

For a moment, everyone had forgotten about Fan Ru who was lying on the bed, they were all talking and laughing happily! The old woman who was the instigator stood up and patted the dirt on her knees with a smile, "I'll cook breakfast for uncle, I'll boil some wine for uncle …"

But right at that moment, Fan Ru who was in his arms suddenly became agitated, as though the words just now exhausted all of his energy, his face suddenly went from red to waxy yellow, and all the Qi in his throat disappeared.

"Big brother! "Eldest brother …" Fan Lian quickly squeezed through the crowd and shouted, causing everyone to panic, they all rushed forward together with their doctors.

At this moment, Yama was here to accept a doctor, and even if he asked for a doctor, he wouldn't be able to do anything about it. The famous doctor from Taiyuan City could only shake her head and say, "Prepare yourself. Even a thousand years old Ginseng wouldn't be able to save you now …"

Right at this moment, Fan Ru suddenly erupted, he grabbed his brother as though he wanted to stand up, his eyes were void of expression, as though he was looking at a person in the void.

"Your Majesty …" Your majesty! I am the loyal subject Fan Ru! "

"Loyalty to the monarch... "Loyal Monarch …"

Before he finished speaking, he spat out a mouthful of impure Qi. Fan Ru's head tilted to the side and he fell into his brother's embrace, then passed away.

All the lanterns were wrapped in white cloth, the couplets and gatekeepers were also covered with a layer of white paper, paper flowers, and a vast expanse of white filial piety. The mournful music that was played announced the death of the patriarch of the Fan family.

In that dream, the Great Qing was for hundreds of thousands of years, and would never die. Just by seeing how did not want his child to become a official in the Chinese clan even if he died, and yet she stubbornly insisted on going to the Great Qing Dynasty. This proved his stubbornness.

Fan Lian was like a puppet sitting at a corner of the mourning hall, watching his nephews manage his eldest brother's future generations bit by bit. His tears had already dried, and his sorrowful emotions had long been replaced by endless disappointment.

"Young Master!" Do you know what kind of people you have to face? Was the Great Qing Dynasty that easy to overthrow? Look at my big brother, why would his lifelong dream change because of you? These people are already bewitched here! "

"No, I must tell Young Master everything that has happened today, I must give him a reminder!"

Fan Lian's telegram was delivered by the enemy grandpa and the four officials of the CIA into Tai Yuan City late into the night. The events that happened during the past few days quickly turned into an electric signal and was sent to the Ryukyu Headquarters via a special password.

Currently, only the Ryukyu Headquarters knew where the Prime Minister was. The message was encrypted and sent to Shanghai, and when the telegram arrived at the pier of Shanghai, the Zhiyuan Warship had already gone to the ocean.

The fastest fire vessel caught up to the Zhiyuan Warship and delivered Fan Lian's telegram to Xiao Letian at the last moment.

"What?" Fan Ru died? So fast? Didn't you say that there are still a few more months to go? " No matter what, Fan Ru was still Hu Niu's uncle and was related to him.

"Men! Prepare the sacrificial offering, I want Fan Ru to be sacrificed on the Zhiyuan Warship!"
