I can tell fortunes, so I’m not easy to mess with [Cross Book]

Compared with her furious husband, Fu Min was calmer, and said, "Actually, it's not necessarily that bad. Let's see. Just like what Fan Er said, as long as he agrees with Yi Wang on this matter, no one will It can prove that they are deceiving people. No matter what King Yi's purpose is, it is impossible for him to admit that he is deceiving the king."

Although the wife was too protective of the youngest son, what she said was true. Xie Taifei sighed and said irritably: "That's what I said, but the fourth prince doesn't know what the idea is. This matter will not be resolved for a day." , It’s like a knife hanging over our heads one day. I’m afraid disaster is coming!”

Fu Min said slowly: "After all, I'm still short-sighted. When this happened, I only felt that the child had made a great contribution. I was only interested in being happy, but I didn't ask him to understand the situation. Don't get angry. If you want to blame, just blame him." Blame me."

Recently, since he was not in the capital, Xie Fan's publicity was also because of the connivance of his mother, Fu Min.Don't say that there is a hidden meaning in this matter, even if there is no hidden meaning, it shouldn't be like this - Bai Yiling also saved the prince, and he hasn't spoken yet.

The children who are sent away are many times better than the children who are raised by their side, but they refuse to recognize themselves. This feeling is regretful and depressed, but Xie Taifei complains in his heart that Fu Min has shallow eyesight and spoils the children. But his wife said it herself, and he felt a little bit sorry for it.

Fu Min looked at his words and said, "Husband, I'm thinking of going back and writing a letter to my eldest brother in a while, explaining the situation here, and asking him about when he can be transferred back to Beijing. There is a guarantee."

Her elder brother Fu Yue is currently the Chief Sima. He is more important than the third prince and holds a heavy army. His position in the court is extremely important, but now he is guarding the border and not in the capital. Xie Taifei has always respected this uncle, so he nodded when he heard the words, He acquiesced to his wife's words.

Right now, there is no other way, he just regrets that he has not got on good terms with Bai Yiling, otherwise he can get to the bottom of what is found in this case.

Now Xie Taifei could only point to Xie Fan and said: "Lock him up these few days, he is not allowed to go out, and he is not allowed to use that little credit to go out to publicize!"

It was not easy for her husband to let go, Fu Minsheng was afraid that he would regret it again, so he quickly ordered his servants: "Hurry up and help the third son down!"

The servant secretly took a look at Lord Hou's face, and hurriedly agreed, Xie Taifei threw the whip on the ground in awe, and strode away.Fu Min sighed, followed Xie Fan to his bedroom.

After the mother and son went back, Fu Min asked his servants to prepare towels and hot water, and sat beside Xie Fan's bed, wiping the welts Xie Taifei pulled out for him.In fact, these injuries were not too serious, but they were all pulled out by him in a rage, and several marks were hit on the face, which looked very miserable.

Xie Fan was sulking in his heart, and when a wet towel was wiped on the wound, he felt a burning pain. He opened Fu Min's hand with a "snap", and said angrily, "Don't you ignore me? Let me be beaten to death! "

His mother begged for mercy after his father finished beating him, so there's no use in that!

The towel fell on the ground, and the maid next to it quickly picked it up. Fu Min stared at Xie Fan and didn't speak for a while.

Seeing her like this, Xie Fan felt a little guilty again, and was about to say something when he heard his mother say coldly: "Kneel down."

Xie Fan remained stubborn, Fu Min said, "Do you still want me to invite your father over?"

Xie Fan lifted the quilt angrily, got out of bed and knelt heavily, the rest of the servants saw this and hurriedly left the room.

Fu Mindao: "If you make such a big mistake and don't want to repent, you still blame me. Your father is right. I have indulged you too much. If you let this go on like this, sooner or later it will bring harm to the entire Hou Mansion." Trouble. I just regret that I didn't send you and your second brother to the army for training!"

Xie Fan gritted his teeth and said: "Bai Yiling's white-eyed wolf who doesn't recognize his relatives, when you see him, he is the eldest son and the shortest, and you can post it to please him. When he comes to me, he is all beaten and scolded! What can I do? Second brother is not in the capital. If I can't do anything, can I just watch my father get hotheaded and pass on the position of son to Bai Yiling? Then there is still room for me in the entire Marquis Mansion!"

As for the specific reason why Bai Yiling left the Marquis Mansion, Xie Xi and Xie Fan are not very clear about it, it is not honorable to say it.Fu Min knew in his heart that his son's words were half true and half false. It was true that he hated Bai Yiling, but it was also true that he coveted the position of the son.

She sighed and said, "Why do you need to worry about this kind of thing? Parents care about you because they love you and only want you to live a carefree and aboveboard life. You are destined to be a rich man from birth. Enjoy you Is it not good for you to let the elder brothers bear the responsibility for your wealth?"

Xie Fan's eyes widened, and just about to refute, she heard her say again: "Don't worry, mother will not harm you, I can't let your father pass the position of son to Xia'er, how can mother be willing to see you suffer from your brother?" Bullying."

Xie Fan said in surprise, "Really?"

Fu Min: "This position is only suitable for your second brother."

Xie Fan: "..."

He took a deep breath, and Fu Min had already helped him up. The mother and son sat down together. Fu Min took Xie Fan's hand and said, "Fan Er, don't be so stupid. Parents have loved you the most since childhood. Your eldest brother He was sent away since he was a child, and your second brother also went to the army to practice at the beginning of this year, and you were the only one who stayed by our side, and we were not willing to send him away, because we didn't want you to suffer from the suffering of the two older brothers."

Seeing that Xie Fan was gradually listening to other people's persuasion, she spoke softly: "It is not easy to support this Marquis Mansion. Your second brother is the elder brother. He has a rightful name and will definitely take care of you. If you change You, think about it, have you suffered from that tiredness?"

Xie Fan opened his mouth, but did not speak.

Fu Mindao: "Your elder brother was not disciplined by his parents since he was a child, and he has a bad temper. Now that he is so old and has an official position, your father and I don't care about him because we are unfamiliar with each other. We care about you."

Xie Fan said sullenly: "Really? But father is not satisfied with me, and Bai Yiling doesn't think highly of me."

Fu Min stroked his hair, and said gently: "Your father is angry, and you did make a mistake. Don't mess with him these few days. It's fine when the matter is over. No matter what, in the eyes of others, You have made a great contribution to this matter, as long as you kill this matter and be obedient in the future, there will be no problems."

Xie Fan was finally happy, and Fu Min called a maid to help him apply the medicine. Seeing her son resting on the bed, she stepped out of his room. With a deep sigh.

Maid Jiang Xiu said: "Ma'am, you feel sorry for the third son, right? When Lord Hou made a move just now, the maid thought you would come out to stop him immediately."

Fu Mindao: "At that time, Master Hou was in a fit of anger, and he must have felt in his heart that I doted too much on Fan'er to teach the child like this. If he hadn't let him hit him a few times to vent his anger, I would have complained too. How could it be that It's easy to stop."

Jiang Xiudao: "Everyone says that Lord Hou loves his wife very much, and he is obedient and obedient. Because of you, he would not even be a son-in-law, but he did not see that his wife is so virtuous and courteous. It is because you are cautious in everything, and the people in the house, Including the old lady, everyone will respect you!"

She was talking about how the late emperor chose a son-in-law for his righteous sister, Duan Jing, the eldest princess.

At that time, the old Marquis was still there, and it was the time when the Yongding Marquis Mansion was prosperous, and the son-in-law was originally chosen to be the son of the Marquis of Yongding, Xie Taifei. Unexpectedly, the emperor revealed a little bit of this meaning, respecting the eldest princess and Xie Taifei. , each claiming to have someone they like.

The person Xie Taifei likes is Fu Min, the daughter of Master Fu, and Princess Duan Jing is even more powerful. She even bluntly said that she had made a private decision with Sheng Mian, the Duke of Zhen who was fighting in the frontier at that time, and would not marry unless he was the only one.

——You know, at that time, there had been no news for half a month since the army led by Sheng Mian entered the desert. Everyone said that he might have died outside.The Empress Dowager was unwilling to agree to this marriage, but Princess Duan Jing was a stubborn woman who would never compromise on anything.

This marriage was tossed and twisted, and there were many side issues, but in the end it didn't work out. In the end, the princess asked the emperor for orders, and she brought soldiers and rode thousands of miles to save her lover. The husband and wife returned victorious. At the same time, Xie Taifei married Fu Min as he wished .

Thinking of this, the appearance of that woman appeared in Fu Min's mind again, and she suddenly felt a little melancholy.Duan Jing is obviously not a golden branch and a jade leaf. The father of the two is a colleague in the army. When they were young, they often met. Enter the palace and seal the princess.

The two of them have never lost their temper since they were young, and they are respectful, strong and willful, but she is sensitive and resourceful, but for some reason, the more careful she is, the harder it is to live, and the more she doesn't care, the luckier she is.

Just like this marriage, the eldest princess can rely on her favor to fight for it relentlessly, but she can only pin her hopes on Xie Taifei's feelings, sitting at home obediently, waiting for this man to marry.

Originally, I thought that my lover would finally get married and get a good marriage, but Duan Jing could only be an old girl who stayed by her family for the rest of her life. Unexpectedly, she had great luck again, and the Duke of Zhen really didn't... He died, and he won a beautiful battle.

Later, Duke Zhen Guo and his wife returned to Beijing in victory, and the common people lined the road to greet them, and they also met each other from afar. Fu Min will never forget the moment of astonishment in Xie Taifei's eyes.She hadn't asked her husband if he ever regretted it, and she didn't want to hear that answer.

Probably because her eldest son, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, came to the house today, and she unknowingly recalled these old events, but now there are many more realistic problems waiting for her, Fu Min pulled her thoughts back .

Jiang Xiu's words didn't make her happy. If a woman is favored by her husband, the root cause is that she can please others, which is nothing to be proud of.She couldn't help sighing:

"What's the use of that? In fact, I know in my heart that the old lady has always felt that it was because of my illness that she sacrificed her eldest grandson, and she is very dissatisfied with me. Oh, it's fine, why did Xia'er go back to the house again, this child is soft He doesn't eat hard, his personality is not good, and every time we meet, there will be a scene-I don't know who to follow. I really have a headache when I see him."

Jiang Xiu dared not speak any more.Fu Min has always been gentle and virtuous in front of people, she speaks in a soft voice, and rarely scolds her servants, only occasionally revealing her true emotions in front of her confidantes.

She really couldn't understand that Bai Yiling, who was also his own son, was far better than the other two brothers in terms of appearance and talent. Although he didn't grow up by his side, he left the Hou's Mansion to make sacrifices for Fu Min. Why? Madam Hou not only didn't feel sorry for this son, but rejected her like this - even Hou Ye felt a little bit guilty when facing the eldest son.

Karmic reincarnation, if her attitude had not influenced Xie Fan imperceptibly, Xie Fan probably would not have caused so many troubles just because he didn't like Bai Yiling.

Compared to Jiang Xiu who was full of doubts, Bai Yiling was more open about this matter.After so many years, although the two parties do not live under the same roof, their main activities and communication areas are in Kyoto, and they have been accumulated in bits and pieces, and they have had many contacts.

As he grew up, he could also see through the thoughts of the people in the Hou's mansion, and he had given up on this family countless times. He could guess what Fu Min would think, but he didn't care.

After leaving the Hou's residence, Bai Yiling's attention was still on the case.

Although Xie Fan didn't admit anything, but through his reaction, Bai Yiling was basically sure that there must be something tricky about this matter.With Xie Fan's IQ and ability, he can't do the collusion with the rebels, so the only possibility is that he was used by the Lu Association.

Obviously it wasn't Xie Fan who saved Lu Xie, but Lu Xie wanted to hand over such a credit, what was he trying to thank Fan for?

Could it be...he said that he was captured by an assassin and fell into the water, but in fact none of this happened at all. Witness of his time!

Bai Yiling clenched his fist with his right hand, and hammered the palm of his left hand—if his guess is correct, then this "other thing" is the key, and tomorrow he will send someone to investigate the so-called Lu Xie's drowning place!

However, the fourth prince Yi Wang Lu Xie he knew didn't seem to have this IQ and ability...

Not only did they have this case to deal with, but it had been several days since the Meiyuan Rebellion happened, so they had to hurry up.

Bai Yiling returned home, and walked towards his room while thinking about the case. The servants of the mansion were about to come up to serve him. He felt that they were affecting his thinking, so he waved them away with a wave of his hand.

Bai Yiling absently pushed open the door of his room, looked up, and then stopped.

Under the flickering candlelight, a red fur ball was curled up on the soft cushion and sleeping soundly, with its big tail covering its body.The light illuminated the soft fur all over his body, and it swayed slightly with the ups and downs of his breathing, his naive and very cute.

The pastry box and fruit plate were empty, orange peels and peanut shells were piled up next to the table, and a little bit of pastry crumbs were stained on the fox fur.

Bai Yiling walked to the bed, pointed at the cushion and said, "His Royal Highness Huai, wake up, you went to the wrong door."

While talking, he stared at the fuzz that kept rising and falling with his breathing, and couldn't help it, so he stretched out his hand and pinched the tip of the little fox's ear.

Lu Yu's ears twitched, and he immediately raised his claws, and pressed the back of Bai Yiling's hand precisely, then opened his eyes, and when he looked up, he found that the owner had returned.

With a grunt, he got up from the cushion, shook his hair, and happily greeted Bai Yiling: "Commander Bai, you are back."

Bai Yiling withdrew his hand all of a sudden: "...you can talk?!"

Lu Yu: "...I am Lu Yu!"

Bai Yiling: "But now you are a fox."

It was only then that Lu Yu realized that it wasn't that Bai Yiling didn't recognize him, but that he thought that in the form of a fox, he couldn't speak human words.So the little fox shook his fur, transformed himself into a young prince in high spirits again.

He touched his nose and said, "I've always said it, I was afraid to scare you before. Isn't it familiar now?"

When he said the words "I'm familiar with you now", his voice was obviously lower than before, and he secretly looked at Bai Yiling, as if he was afraid that he would deny it.

His Highness Duke Huai looked arrogant, but he was very easy to get along with. Bai Yiling couldn't help smiling, and said, "That's right, I'm familiar with you now. Anyway, your highness is you, the fox."

When Lu Yu heard his words, he laughed happily, lifted his robe, and sat down on the chair by the table. If he hadn't known in advance that the fruit shells and peels on the table were made by this guy, he would look like He really looks like a dog, with a lot of style.

Bai Yiling smiled and said, "His Royal Highness Huai, how is your injury? I think it's almost healed."

Lu Yu said: "Please remember, it's nothing serious..."

When he said this, seeing Bai Yiling's eyes sweeping over the table, he was quite joking.Only then did he realize that he was saying that he could eat and drink, and seemed to be in good health.

Lu Yu followed suit, and didn't mind his jokes. He stretched out a veil openly, covered the pile of things under it, and said nonchalantly, "Oh, yes, I'm here today. I have something I want to tell you something important."

Bai Yiling said, "Oh? Please tell me."

Lu Yu said: "I think there is something wrong with my fourth brother."

Bai Yiling had been thinking about King Yi's affairs along the way, but when he heard Lu Yu's mention, he immediately cheered up, and stopped joking with him, and asked, "How do you say that?"

Lu Yu said: "In your opinion, what kind of person is His Royal Highness King Yi?"

Bai Yiling thought for a while, and said, "I don't have any scheming, but I like to show off. Some... squeamish."

Lu Yu said hesitantly: "Master Bai is too polite. Let me tell you, this man has been pampered since he was a child, and the concubine loves him so much that among the princes, he is the most delicious, lazy, poor in martial arts, and suffers even a little bit of hardship." No. I'm stupid and like to show off, I can't hold my breath and I feel that Zi is very scheming."

Bai Yiling thought to himself, what he said was really the younger brother of His Royal Highness Yi Wang.

But when Lu Yu mentioned it this way, he seemed to understand what the other party wanted to say.

Sure enough, Lu Yu went on to say: "I disappeared during the chaos in Meiyuan before, and then inexplicably claimed to be rescued and showed up. I believe you must have noticed all the irrationality in the middle. When the imperial doctor was dressing up, I felt that Lu Xie's reaction was also very strange."

He rested his chin on one hand and recalled: "Since he went to Qinzheng Hall, I have been watching from the side because of doubts in my heart. The rest is fine, but Lu Xie has such a big cut in his hand. If he had behaved normally, he would have been crying and rolling all over the ground. Even if he was standing in front of his father, it is not easy to be disrespectful, and he shouldn't be so...calm."

Lu Yu is rough on the outside and refined on the inside, but he has always been careful. When the imperial physician prescribed medicine, he looked at Lu Xie's facial expression, and there was no expression of pain and patience at all, which was very inconsistent with his usual style.

After Lu Yu said this, Bai Yiling immediately thought of another doubtful point: "You are right. Moreover, several days have passed since his disappearance and injury to his safe return. It's not that he didn't treat the wound first. Time, but when he came back like this, it seemed that he deliberately wanted to show the seriousness of his injury in front of the emperor."

It doesn't matter if you sell miserably, this strategy has been used by many people, but as Lu Yu said, it is not suitable for Lu Xie.

Bai Yiling said to himself: "But I also saw his wound with my own eyes at that time. The wound must not be faked. Could it be that someone disguised himself as King Yi..."

As he spoke, he looked at Lu Yu, indicating to ask. When the two of them met, a smile suddenly appeared on Lu Yu's face, and he sighed: "Although I didn't grow up in the palace, after returning to the capital, I will also be with you." Lu Xie doesn't have any friendship, but it's blood ties. He was injured, and I, as a younger brother, really worry about him."

Bai Yiling raised his eyebrows, and there was a playful look on his lips.

The corners of Lu Yu's lips curled up, with a sly look in his eyes, and he said, "So I prepared a generous gift and went to Yi Wang's mansion to visit the sick."

These days, Lu Xie has been claiming that he is out of illness, and no one has seen him. It is well known that he was kidnapped by assassins, and it is understandable to do so. Even if Bai Yiling and the others want to investigate the inside story, it is not good to ask forcibly during King Yi's illness. .

There are not many people who can meet Lu Xie under such circumstances, and Lu Yu must be one of them.

Bai Yiling's eyes lit up, and he asked, "And then?"

Lu Yu looked at him with a smile and said, "I came to the door in person to visit him. This kind of brotherhood is invaluable. Naturally, it is impossible for people in Yi Wang's Mansion not to let me in."

His Royal Highness Duke Huai actually visited Yi Wang's mansion in a hypocritical manner, just like a weasel paying a New Year's greeting to a chicken, with ill intentions almost written all over his face.Lu Xie was very upset, of course he didn't want to see him, but no one in the whole family, including himself, could disobey Lu Yu's intentions and not give him this face, so Lu Yu went in.

After he entered, he saw that the room was dimly lit, and Lu Xie was lying on the bed dying, as if he had been stabbed not in his hand, but in his chest, and the next moment his soul would go to the west and ascend to bliss.

Lu Yu walked over and sat affectionately on the head of his bed, wanting to touch Lu Xie's forehead to see if he had a fever.

Lu Yu said to Bai Yiling: "It's a good intention. It's rare for me to be so interested in someone, but he seems to have seen a ghost, and hides from me. Sure enough, he doesn't know what's good or bad."

Bai Yiling was silent.

Lu Yu was quite smug, as if he was still the little fox with its tail up in the sky: "Hey, but after several excuses and politeness, I still let me touch it."
