Actually, it wasn't the old tutor's fault that he wasn't able to bear it. Who wouldn't be angry when it came to this matter?
Looking at Hua Ruge's ability at the end, he knew that she had been pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger. Although she looked weak, she was actually just playing around with the Shui family.
As for Shui Zhenyun who had lived for several hundred years and was toyed with by a little girl, it was already good enough for him to not die from anger.
The situation wasn't just that of anger. He still wanted to face the completely suppressed Shui family. The branch of the Shui family had already caused a ruckus. Now, he once again judged that he had completely lost all of their prestige.
Even so, he did not know if Hua Ruge would let go. With so many resources at her disposal, if she did not let go of the Shui family, she would be in danger of destruction.
Facing such pressure and worry, no matter how strong his psychological defenses were, they would be destroyed.
At the same time Shui Xiaoze's heart ached for his father, he was also filled with regret. If he had accepted Hua Ruge at that time and not set up a killing trap, perhaps today's situation wouldn't have been like this.
If they had Shui Yuyan and Hua Ruge as their trump cards at the same time, they would definitely be able to turn the tables on the stone competition. It was not impossible for them to overtake their Tian Family in terms of speed.
It was a pity that every step he took was wrong. There was no turning back now.
He sat on the ground and clenched his fists in hatred.
Shui Yunning, you still defeated me in the end. I never thought that my next generation would lose to you.
Following that, the Shui Family fell into a state of turmoil. All the branches started firing at the main branch members, wanting to attack Shui Zhenyun and his family members to get down from their positions and replace them with the main branch members.
After all, there were not many people in the direct line of descent, and after all, they couldn't sit still anymore after all the branch members attacked them. Furthermore, Shui Zhenyun had gotten angry and lost all their competitiveness, leaving Shui Xiaoze and Shui Yuyan behind.
Amongst them, Shui Yuyan's identity still made many of the other branches fear him, but when the other branches were twisted into a rope, they released him, and after the main branch lost their trump card, they had the power to resist him.
Thus, Shui Zhenyun's Patriarch position was quickly destroyed. Just when everyone thought that it was over, an even bigger dispute arose.
Because there were so many branches, the question of who was going to be the leader of the branch family was one that no one was modest about. There was almost a fight going on between them.
In this period of time, Hua Ruge did not do anything special other than bribing a few other department's advisors in the Shui family to stir up the water in the pond.
Although Shui Zhenyun was sick, he could see clearly that every time he was about to reach an agreement, there would always be someone who jumped out to cause trouble. If there was no one controlling him from behind, he would definitely not believe it.
However, no matter how much he said that he would not be taken advantage of, no one in the Shui family cared about him. They were still fighting over the position of Patriarch.
After the lack of a leader, the subordinate clans of the Shui Family all changed their minds and changed their ways of life.
Those mines and shops that hadn't lost everything had long been divided up, and the entire Shui family had turned into a pile of loose sand. One could tell by the looks of it that they wouldn't be able to achieve anything big.
Hua Ruge felt that she could finally leave the stage, but just at this moment, many people from the Shui family gave her gifts and cards.
She was shocked. When she understood the purpose of these people trying to curry favor with her, she didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
These people were all trying to apologize to Shui Zhenyun for everything she had done previously, saying that she was a member of the Shui Family. Of course, in the end they would only say that they hoped to get her support during the Clan Master Battle.
When things came to the end, all the branches actually passed a letter to Hua Ruge. After that, they waited to receive his support, as if getting his support was indisputable.
Shui Zhenyun almost vomited blood every time he heard this news. Now, the entire Shui family was actually looking up to a bastard, it was simply a disgrace.
After Shui Xiaoze and his daughter found out about it, they also couldn't eat anymore and couldn't sleep for a few days. They couldn't calm down and cultivate. Each one of them was extremely depressed. However, the situation had already turned around and there was no way for them to turn the tides.
It was not the fault of the Shui Clan's branch family that they could not compete for the position of Patriarch. Even if they could choose the Patriarch, with the current strength of the Shui Clan, they could forget about gaining a foothold, but with Hua Ruge's support, they could gain an extra backer.
After the fall of the Shui Family, there were indeed many people who had their eyes on the Shui Family, especially the Zhan Jia and the Lie Family.
After all, who would have thought that such a situation would occur? Not only did the other side suddenly stop fighting, they even treated you as their boss, wasn't this just a joke?
However, the Shui family wasn't joking. Those who wanted to make a move on them weren't joking either. They were all waiting for her to speak up.2
Therefore, Hua Ruge, who was leisurely walking around the palace as he worked on his layout, had recently become conflicted. Every day, he would walk around, scratching his head as he thought of ideas.
When asking for help, Shui Yunning and Tuoba Rui's attitude was surprisingly the same, allowing her to decide for herself.
Regardless of whether they were standing in a line or not, it was a matter of words. No one could do anything to her.
The letters and gifts from the branches of the Shui family were still sent to the Shui family every day. The entire Falling Moon City was waiting for Hua Ruge's declaration.
Hua Ruge opened his gift box and took out his food. He squatted on the wall and ate with a bitter face.
The moment Tuoba Rui stepped out of the door, he saw Hua Ruge squatting on the wall with his back facing him, looking extremely dejected. He didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he said, "Come down."
"Unless you think of something for me." Hua Ruge was not moved.
Tuoba Rui was helpless, he could only fly over and grab her, pressing her down on his leg, he asked: "What are you thinking?"
"Of course I don't want to care. However, as you've seen, I'm too embarrassed to refuse someone who is begging me for mercy and giving me a gift." Hua Ruge said in a conflicted manner.
"Now it seems that it is impossible for the direct descendents of the Shui Family to regain power. You can just help someone to ascend to the throne." Tuoba Rui said again.
Hua Ruge thought for a while, then said: "Letting them off like this, isn't it a bit too cheap? They hurt my mother."
"I have a way to vent your anger." Tuoba Rui said again.
He felt that she wouldn't be able to come out on her own.
"What?" Hua Ruge asked with bright eyes.
"If you agree to help the Patriarch, then it won't be too much to raise a condition, right?" Tuoba Rui continued, "I think if they were to expel their direct line of descent from the family forever, they would be more than willing."
"Being expelled is a great shame." Hua Ruge rubbed his chin, his eyes lighting up.
Tuoba Rui reached out to pinch her little face: "This should be enough, right?"
