Bab 180: To the Huay Public House

"However, you need to act with propriety. Don't cause too much ruckus." Xiao Qi frowned. "High Duke Song's temper is not very good. If you really went overboard and got into a fight, we will be the one who suffers."

Chu Li laughed in spite of himself. "He is a friend of the High Duke, isn't he? So the situation will not develop to the extent of fighting with each other, right?"

"Who knows?" Xiao Qi shook her head and sighed. "There is no real friendship between the Public Houses, only gains, and personal interests."

"What benefits are there to fight for?" Chu Li asked.

The Public Houses were founded during the establishment of the country. The title of High Duke could be inherited in perpetuity, so the Public Houses were unshakable. No matter how much troubles they caused, the title of High Duke would not be taken away. They just needed to make sure that they had a successor so it was unnecessary for them to fight for profits.
