【Chapter 72】Chunniang is well-informed and deeply

Mu Yun led the boy and helped the maid beside him get off the ox cart.

After Xue Qing settled the servant, he said to the official: "Sir, my wife is not feeling well, so I will go to the government without you."

The ox cart in Jiang Mansion dispersed itself from the crowd's upper east gate and headed towards the Shenmen.

The strange man who followed Xue Qing and the officials to the Zhongdu government always looked at the direction of Mu Yun's departure, lowered his eyes and thoughtful.

As night falls, the starry sky is dotted on the foggy sky, with the fragrance of flowers and plants everywhere. The early spring breeze gently blows up the flying catkins of willows, like flowers flying.

When Xue Qing and the man came out of the Zhongdu government, the streets were already silent, with few pedestrians left, and only the guards patrolling the city were inspecting the streets.

The man hurriedly bid farewell to Xue Qing and then left to the valley gate.

Xue Qing led the horse, stopped in front of the Zhongdu official, staring at the direction of the man leaving, his eyes darkened.

In the vast night, on the dark street, the man rushed away, looking for shortcuts in the city walls, and walked around several small paths to a magnificent mansion.

On the plaque, the word Fu Mansion hangs.

The man took a deep breath, lifted his skirt, walked up the steps in three or two steps, and knocked on the closed door with a buckle.

The sound of "dongdongdongdongdongdong" was heard in the mansion.

Soon, there was a movement inside. The servant of the doorman opened the door, lit a candle lamp in his hand, raised his arm and shone forward, and asked, "Who is outside the door?"

The swaying light of the candlelight shone on the man's face.

The servant stretched out his head, squinted his eyes and carefully identified it. After seeing the man's appearance, he immediately said to him respectfully: "Is it the young master? Why did the young master come back so late?"

The man stood in front of the mansion with his hands on his back, and said tiredly: "Something on the road has been delayed..."

The concierge nodded repeatedly, pushed the door open quickly, and then invited the man to enter, and then continued, "The lord has been waiting in the young master's study for a long time. You are finally back."

The man looked up at the sky and said with annoyance: "Father is so late and hasn't rest yet? What's the matter waiting for me?"

The servant of the concierge followed him and explained: "The lord wants to explain some things to the young master."

The man nodded slightly, then calmed his expression and walked towards the study room with a blank expression.

Fu Mansion.

In order to avoid Li Chengyi's birthday party, Fu Bo has been ill for many days and is idle at home.

Fu Zhongwen returned to the mansion two days ago, but he never returned to the western suburbs to patrol the camp, and has been living in Fu's mansion.

He hasn't lived here for many years and is not very familiar with everything here.

Although Fu Zhongwen was Fu Bo's legitimate son, he was stupid because he was weak and sick as a child, and was disliked by Fu Bo. Therefore, he lived in the old house of Fu Feng in Youfufeng since childhood and lived with his grandfather and grandmother. It was not until after the ceremony that Fu Zhongwen suddenly appeared in the court and the government of the capital as General Wei, and the two fathers and sons had exchanges and contacts.

However, without the companionship of more than ten years, the gap between Fu Zhongwen and Fu Bo cannot be cut off. There are always some frictions that make them both disgusted.

However, despite this, the Fu family and his son were always able to stand on the front line in major events. Fu Bo was ambitious and had the idea of ​​seizing the throne. Although Fu Zhongwen was stupid when he was a child, he studied hard and practiced hard. Regardless of martial arts, his knowledge was outstanding among his peers, and he also had ancestors who had made great achievements in the founding of the country. He had two respected queens in his clan, and had a rich sense of superiority. He believed that he should earn some achievements and win a high position to demonstrate his talents.

He liked tactics and military weapons, so he practiced sword skills hard, and at the age of nine he resolutely joined the army and joined the army.

The position of General of the Great Wei Dynasty was a merit of his sword and gun. Fu Bo did not give him a helping hand in private. He didn't even know what kind of perseverance Fu Zhongwen could earn a place from the cruel and terrifying military camp, and gain the favor of His Majesty. He was named General of the Guard and became one of the four generals, in charge of the entire Great Wei Guard.

Fu Bo is full of strategy and secretly recruits strength from the court for many years. Before he knew it, he was able to compete with Deng, who was once the most prosperous one. The reason why he was able to survive in the court and the country was naturally due to the contribution of Fu Yu, the former head of Fu's family.

Fu Yu was the son of Fu Yi, the head of the Eastern Prefecture Department, during the reign of Emperor Cheng. As the saying goes, the tiger father has no dog son. Fu Yi was decisive when he served as the head of the Eastern Prefecture Department, and his achievements were prominent. Fu Yu was also young and promising. He was also young and promising, and because his aunt, Empress Gongxiao, Empress Fu Ying was favored by the harem, and he rose to prominence in his career.

When Fu Yu stayed in the court, he accumulated a wealth of connections for Fu Bo. Even though Fu Bo's position was mediocre, he served as the Huangmen Marquis, the Governor of Jingzhou and the Governor of Yanzhou. He was only in his fifties and served as the Sikong position, which made him receive enough respect and trust in the capital.

Thirteen years ago, Fu Bo began to recruit forces in the court and formed a secret spy from Zhaoge, exploring the secrets of the gentry that the gentry could not stand the light of day. He held it in his hands as a coercion, which made the gentry follow the orders. Later, Zhaoge became more and more powerful, and he branched into the Shuangsha Gang. His wealth was chosen by him and he was appointed as the leader of the Shuangsha Gang, and he investigated the situation of the Jianghu and followed the rules of the Jianghu. In this way, he used some dark and shady techniques to kill people and seize wealth, and eliminate dissidents.

Although Fu Yu retreated to the right Fu Feng, he learned a little about his son Fu Bo's secretly doing this, and sometimes even helped Fu Bo with help at critical moments.

Fu Zhongwen was influenced by his childhood and naturally believed that all the gentry should follow the Fu family's orders. The world of the Great Wei Dynasty was closely related to the Fu family. Without the Fu family, half of the Great Wei Dynasty would follow. He was very cunning and because of his patience, he sometimes surpassed his father's ambitions and had the ambition to dominate the country.

Today, he met Jiang Chengyi's wife Mu Yun at the Shangdongmen, and he realized that it was strange. He had a little guess in his mind, and knew that this matter was probably the one-handed place by Fu Bo, which made him meet Mu Yun like this coincidence.

Although Fu Zhongwen was willing to obey his father's words in terms of great trouble, he was unwilling to be controlled by others.

At this moment, his expression was gloomy and terrifying. He rushed into Tanying Pavilion, located behind Fu's mansion, ran all the way to the study, and pushed open the door angrily.

In the room, Fu Bo sat in front of the desk, holding his chin and closing his eyes for a nap. Suddenly, he heard a lot of muffled sounds in front of the door, so he immediately opened his eyes and looked at him. Seeing Fu Zhongwen standing in front of the room with a gloomy face, staring at him coldly, the tiredness hanging on his face immediately disappeared.

He rubbed his hands, stood up and walked forward, squeezed out a smile, and was about to say something to Fu Zhongwen. However, the young man stepped across the threshold angrily, cleverly avoided his touch, and sat straight to the other under the window.

Fu Bozun was still there, not knowing what to say next.

The atmosphere was silent and cold for a moment, and Fu Zhongwen suddenly said, "What does my father mean today? Sun family in Yingyun Lane... I remember that he was the subordinate of Uncle Yin? Why did he make trouble at Shangdongmen today? And why did Mu appear at Shangdongmen?"

This series of questions like a cannon made Fu Bo stop.

He frowned, then walked to the door silently, closed the door heavily, then turned around and looked at Fu Zhongwen.

He looked calm, but Fu Zhongwen was very disgusted with such an arrangement.

The young man looked up at his father, and four lamps were lit in the study, so he could clearly see Fu Bo's eyes.

The dull eyes that seemed to be unrelated to him inexplicably hurt Fu Zhongwen's mind.

"Jiang Chengyi's wife, Mu is also a stolen figure in the capital. You have been a foreigner all year round and finally returned to the capital after the New Year. You can rest for a while. It will be no harm to bring you to the beautiful country for your father?"

Fu Bo slowly walked to Fu Zhongwen and sat behind the desk table on the other side. His words were calm and there was almost no ups and downs.

"What did my father say? Then Mu is married as a wife. What should the child know her for no reason?" Fu Zhongwen became more and more angry.

He knew that what Fu Bo’s arrangement meant today was nothing more than trying to help him meet the Mu family, so that he could make use of this to make a fuss, and finally used this matter to lead Jiang Chengyi back to Beijing.

"Father... there is still the Censor Xue Qing next to Mu. Why don't you use him? Instead, you want to use me?" Fu Zhongwen clenched his fists tightly, gritting his teeth when he spoke, and felt really depressed.

Fu Bo mocked, "What? You could have looked down on a lowly prostitute from Qinlou and Chuguan, but you looked down on a brave and talented woman?"

Fu Zhongwen was shocked and angry and said, "Father! What does this have to do with Chunniang?! Don't bring this to others!"

Fu Bo snorted coldly: "Chunniang! Chunniang! You still remember that slut! I drove him out of Youfufeng and forced him to beg along the street, but you still didn't learn a lesson. Afterwards, I still went to find her with a desperate situation. I was really blinded by lard, and I didn't know whether it was good or bad!"

Fu Zhongwen was scolded by him, and the repressed anger in his heart was about to break out. He slapped the table and couldn't control himself. He said angrily to Fu Bo: "Father! The child asked himself to follow his father in everything and did not act unfilial. But his father was so mean to the child. Why? Father, he has not been accompanied by your teaching since he was a child. To achieve such a position now is also a merit gained by the child fighting alone on the battlefield.

Since you have never cared about your child, why should you point fingers at your child’s feelings? Chunniang was originally a friend of her, but because of your father, you, you were shot out of Youfufeng and disappeared again. The child was angry, but he never blamed you afterwards. But why did you still hold on to this matter?!"

Fu Bo was shocked by his sudden anger, and for a moment he was stunned. After calming down, he said angrily: "What are you going to do now? Are you rebelling? No matter how bad I am, it is your father! That slutty prostitute is so humble that he should not enter my Fu family. I told you to get together early and part early, and it is also for you! If you have this woman's ties, I am afraid you will not be able to serve as General Guard now!"

Fu Zhongwen clenched his fist, and the blue veins on his back swelled up, and his clear black eyes gradually became angry and red.

He kicked open the door and left in anger.
