"Stinky girl, don't even think about running away." Huan Yuan grabbed his daughter's collar and pulled her back, "Tell me, who are you staying with these days?"
"Who else can we follow? Of course it's with A-Yao and the others."
"Hmph!" Huan Yuan glanced at her with disdain, "You think your father is too incompetent. I know everything about you."
"You know it if you know it! I won't listen to you this time." Huan Ci snorted coldly.
Huan Yuan sighed, and his eyes suddenly became much darker: "Girl, why are you asking for trouble? Whether it is the bad things in his family or his current status, they are not suitable for you. You just
Listen to dad and find someone else. I recently discovered a promising talent. You met this person a few days ago. He is General Kong's youngest son Kong Lin. I don't think he will be able to work for the court at ease, so it is better to win over him.
How about coming here and asking him to be your husband?"
"Not so?" Huan Ci stared at his father curiously, recalling what he had just said, "Father, what are you talking about about the bad things in Fu Mansion? Do you know something hidden?"
Huan Yuan let go of Huan Ci's collar, walked to the door with his hands behind his hands, looked at the courtyard quietly, and sighed: "That child is actually Fu Wei's biological son, but he doesn't know it himself. Over the years, Fu Wei has
If you keep him by your side, won't you still get nothing?"
"Dad, what are you talking about? Whose child do you think Amo is?"
Huan Yuan took a deep look at her and whispered: "Silly girl, their family's affairs are too complicated. How could you marry into that kind of family?"
How can Huan Ci listen? Now all she can think about is Fu Shen's true identity. Is he actually Fu Wei's son? Does he know about this? If the Yamen hears this case, will it be involved?
What’s the truth?
The most hateful thing is that at this critical moment, she actually left Fu Shen again.
"No, I want to go back to Bingzhou." She made the decision as soon as she patted her head.
"You are not allowed to go anywhere, just stay in Daizhou." Huan Yuan stretched out his leg to block her way and scolded her coldly.
Huan Ci stamped his feet, with a hint of grievance in his voice: "Dad, you can't do this every time."
But looking at Huan Yuan's increasingly intriguing expression, she suddenly felt a sense of fear in her heart: "Dad, what's wrong with you? Why are you like this?"
Huan Yuan touched her head and said softly: "Since the battle in Chenyang, I think Zong Zhengche's strength has been exhausted. A Ci, if Zong Zhenglu brings down Zong Zhengche, then who will he deal with next?"
This is me. At this time, you should stay in Daizhou, so that my father can still protect you."
"Is Zong Zhengche dying so soon? How long has it been?" Huan Ci was a little surprised. After all, she used to think that Zong Zhengche was stronger than Zong Zhenglu and had a more solid foundation than him, but she didn't expect that he would die so soon.
Defeated.
"He ran in a hurry, which caused people's confusion. Moreover, the place he occupied was not particularly favorable to begin with. It was still worse than the capital. I just don't know how Zong Zhenglu would deal with his cousin."
At this time, Huan Ci suddenly remembered what Zong Zhenglu had asked her to tell her father, and hurriedly repeated it exactly. After listening, her father just lowered his head in thought and did not reply for a long time.
Huan Ci looked at his father and suddenly felt that he was much older. He had gray hair on his temples and the fine lines on his face were more obvious than before.
She was only thinking about her own affairs these days, but she still neglected her father after all. Her father was forced to do this and became a rebel against the imperial court. He still had the past of his mother hidden in his heart. He must have been suffering in his heart these years.
"Dad, let's not worry about their family affairs for now. I'll help you comb your hair. I see your hair is messed up." She smiled and pulled her father over and pushed him down on the chair to sit down.
Through the bronze mirror, Huan Yuan clearly saw Huan Ci's bitter face. He repeatedly tried to stop Huan Ci and Fu Shen, and he felt bitter in his heart. But if he didn't care about it, wouldn't he be pushing his daughter to the end?
Go into the fire pit.
"Girl, let me tell you a story."
"Okay!" Huan Ci slowly helped his father comb his hair, smiled at his father in the mirror, and listened to his father's words.
More than twenty years ago, there was a well-known family in Bingzhou who were descendants of the great hero General Fu. However, they said that although his descendants could not restore the Fu Mansion to the glory it was when he was there, it was still a success.
That's right, it's also a well-known family in Bingzhou.
It's just that in a family like this, there are many unspeakable things inside. After all, ordinary dirty things are not news, and Mr. Fu usually doesn't pay attention to them. But one day, he suddenly witnessed something shocking.
Shocked by the incident, I tried many methods but could not solve it. After that, I started to seek immortality and asked for help, and no longer paid attention to family affairs.
It turned out that at dusk that day, Mr. Fu had just returned from the palace, and on a whim he wanted to rest for a while in the courtyard where his ancestors watched the opera. Unexpectedly, when he walked near the stage, the old man heard someone behind the stage doing something dirty.
Originally, he planned to turn a blind eye, but a familiar voice made him open the curtain uncontrollably.
What caught his eye was his second son Fu Wei, whom he was proud of, and his eldest son's wife, whom he usually respected very much.
The two of them soon discovered the old man and quickly got up to dodge. But he could see clearly, where could the two of them hide? They kept kowtowing to the old man, begging for his forgiveness, and promised repeatedly that they would never do this again.
Things that ruin the family tradition.
Seeing how pitiful the two of them were, and they were both children he watched grow up, Mr. Fu couldn't say anything in the end, so he let them go with his eyes closed.
But not long after, the eldest son's wife was suddenly diagnosed with a positive pulse. It was originally a happy thing, but the old man couldn't be happy. On the one hand, he was worried that the child was the second son's, and on the other hand, he was afraid that the eldest son would find out what happened.
Afterwards, the brothers turned against each other.
Finally, the old man finally came up with a way. He gave all his savings to his two infant grandsons, so that even if the eldest son noticed something unusual in the future, he would definitely let the children go for the sake of money.
But after all, he still underestimated the eldest son's feelings for his eldest son's wife. He married this woman despite the advice of his family. Perhaps the second son and his eldest son's wife failed to abide by their agreement, and there were still some inconsistencies, so the eldest son discovered the clues.
In the end, it was him who cried and persuaded, and finally the three of them managed to avoid too much embarrassment. But at dawn the next day, he suddenly heard that the twins were dead. How could the old man dare to think about it carefully? He only hated himself for having died.
After such a thing happened, I no longer wanted to take care of these dirty things in the family, so I continued to slowly hand over my power.
After this incident, his eldest son's daughter-in-law is no longer as smart and lively as before. She has been leaning on the bed all year round, always suffering from minor illnesses, and is becoming more and more haggard. But the eldest son seems to have been stimulated, crazily grabbing power in the family, and the whole
Immerse yourself in the gentle countryside every day.
In the autumn of that year, he followed his friends to the country of Yong to relax, and he went back and forth for more than six months. When he came back, a maid came to congratulate him on the birth of his son.
How could he have a child with her these days when he had abandoned her like a shoe? Fu Ji soon understood what had happened. The woman had betrayed her again. His repeated forbearance was rewarded with a brother.
How could Fu Ji endure the repeated betrayal with his wife? He used the same tricks as before to silence his wife forever.
If others don't know, they have to do it themselves. Although he does it carefully, how can such a thing not leave any clues?
Sure enough, his brother quickly got the clue and came to question him late one night when he was drunk, which eventually led to tragedy.
At this point in the story, Huan Ci has roughly understood it. It would be false to say that she was not shocked. After all, she had always felt that Fu Wei was good to Fu Shen because of his wealth, which made her feel hypocritical. Now that she thinks about it, he must have seen it.
Fu Shen would remember things from the past, so the relationship between the two has always been lukewarm.
"Dad, how did you know such a secret thing?" Huan Ci frowned and looked at his father.
Huan Yuan sneered: "Back then, I worked under Fu Wei, and I helped him a lot when he was looking for clues. Who knew that in the end, he was afraid that I would tell him and wanted to kill me to silence him. Fortunately, your father and I ran fast.
It’s all thanks to him, otherwise I wouldn’t have joined the army, and I wouldn’t have had such a successful career.”
Huan Ci wiped his sweat silently. He didn't expect that his father and Fu Wei had such a connection. No wonder the two families never had any contact, and his father always looked unhappy when he mentioned Fu Wei.
"What would Ah Mo think if he knew this? I heard that he has not had any contact with Fu Wei in these years, and he must have regarded him as the enemy who killed his father. But now that the matter is so complicated, how should he deal with it?
"
"How do you care about him? He is in a high position now. If he can't accept this little thing, how can he take on a big responsibility? Don't worry." Huan Yuan said in a low voice.
Huan Ci lowered his head and said nothing. She had just promised the man that we would face everything together in the future, but she didn't expect to break her promise so soon. It was all her fault that the person who wrote to her asked her to find out who must have stripped him.
Skin.
Thinking of this, she wanted to investigate as soon as possible. Huan Yuan looked at her distracted look and hurriedly said, "You hurt my scalp? Are you deliberately taking revenge on me?"
Huan Ci quickly rubbed it and apologized: "Dad, I didn't mean it. Are you okay?"
"You girl, what are you thinking about?" Huan Yuan complained casually, and suddenly caught a glimpse of a familiar figure in the bronze mirror.
Huan Ci also noticed the visitor and almost couldn't help but roll his eyes.
Why is this eunuch still here? Moreover, he is dressed more and more lavishly, and he looks really nondescript.
"Eunuch Li, I haven't seen you for a long time." She turned around and greeted Li Qi with a smile.
A crack appeared on Li Qi's expression, but he quickly covered it up. He nodded towards Huan Ci, then stared at Huan Yuan's back and said, "My lord, have you thought about the next step?"
"What are you talking about? I want to know too?" Huan Ci asked softly.
