Zhu Mansion.

In the inner courtyard of the palace, there is a secluded courtyard with many green bamboos planted in the courtyard.

This courtyard is forbidden!

People in Zhu's mansion, no one is allowed to enter or leave this room without permission from the head of the family.

Because there is a capable person and stranger living in this other courtyard!

About sixteen years ago.

At that time, the old Patriarch of the Zhu family was about to abdicate and was planning to choose a new generation of Patriarchs from several outstanding sons.

In a world where strength is respected, the martial arts family does not really value the eldest son inheritance system.

Whoever has the greatest ability is in power.

Moreover, not only look at personal strength, but also look at the future potential, as well as the comprehensive talents in all aspects, such as disposition, resourcefulness, financial management, and dealing with the world.

The Zhu family's bloodline is prosperous, and there are many children in the old family, so the competition is naturally fierce.

Zhu Youxuan also participated in the controversy.

But at that time, his chances of winning were not great until he met a fortune teller.

The self-proclaimed "manager", the surname is Lan, the name Dongyu, his appearance is not good, he is still a blind man, set up a fortune-telling stall under the stone bridge, and make a little money.

Zhu Youxuan accidentally heard someone mention that this blind man was very accurate in fortune-telling, because he had revealed too much secrets that he became blind.

"It's just a liar."

Zhu Youxuan didn't believe it at first, but couldn't help but be curious and asked Lan Dongyu to count it.

Unexpectedly, Lan Dongyu had real abilities. He could pinch it and count it. Zhu Youxuan suddenly shocked the sky and was deeply impressed.

Afterwards, the thirsty Zhu Youxuan put down his body, Lixian Corporal, invited Lan Dongyu back to the mansion, treating him as a confidant.

Zhu Youxuan was out of control since then!

It was under Lan Dongyu's advice that Zhu Youxuan began to emerge, quickly reversed the situation, rose to the top, stood out from a few brothers, and had the last laugh.

At this moment, Zhu Youxuan was so excited that he walked quickly into the other courtyard, walked through a lush green bamboo forest, and came to a bamboo house.

Under the eaves, beside the warm stove.

A white-haired old man with closed eyes was drinking tea in a leisurely manner, and a red-clothed maid beside him, holding an ancient scroll of bamboo slips, read to the old man with a clear and accented speech.

"See Master."

When the maid saw Zhu Youxuan coming, she stopped quickly and got up and bowed.

"An Cui, you go down first."

Zhu Youxuan smiled and set his hand. He sat down opposite Lan Dongyu and said with a smile: "Sir, there is a big happy event."

Lan Dongyu opened his eyes, revealing a pair of pale eyeballs, and said with a faint smile: "This winter is so cold, and the old man has calculated it earlier. It doesn't seem to be a big happy event."

Zhu Youxuan laughed, "Sir, do you remember those rumors about Mu Shangbai?"

Lan Dongyu tilted his head: "Oh, could it be a stone hammer?"

Zhu Youxuan: "It's more than a stone hammer, it's far more exciting than you and I imagined." He repeated Zhu Quan's words.

After listening, Lan Dongyu didn't have much expression on his face, and his reaction was dull: "That's it?"

Zhu Youxuan said in surprise: "Mr. Don't think this is a good opportunity to kill three birds with one stone?"

Lan Dongyu: "What is meant by three birds with one stone?"

Zhu Youxuan broke his fingers and said in detail:

"First, the marriage between Mu Shangbai and Su Wanqing is basically cold. The marriage between the richest Mu family and the richest man Su family failed. This is great news for my Zhu family;

Second, Mu Shangbai’s child is in the hands of Dian Wei. He will not marry Su Wanqing. He must resent Dian Wei and conflict with Ning is inevitable. As long as we secretly help, destroy Ning and seize his family property, it will be easy;

Third, the Mu family is divided into two factions, the "Water School" who cultivates "Shangshan is Like Water" and the "Cold School" who cultivates "Ice Fiend Magic Skill".

Mu Shangbai is a member of the cold sect. This time, he was betrayed by the water sect. His marriage has become bad and his reputation is bad. Shi is equally advantageous, isn't it? "

Lan Dongyu didn't comment on this, and asked instead, "The child in Dianwei's hands is Mu Shangbai's, who can prove it?"

Zhu Youxuan frowned: "This..."

Lan Dongyu: "Warriors have different blood in their bodies. They are different from ordinary people and bloodline warriors. It is impossible to'recognize relatives with blood'. A dad who practices martial arts and a child who does not practice martial arts can not tolerate blood. In other words , As long as Mu Shangbai doesn’t admit that the child is his, it’s not his. No one can show evidence to identify him, right?"

Zhu Youxuan was speechless.

Lan Dongyu continued to ask: "The rumors about Mu Shangbai's first chaos and the end of abandoning his hand to destroy the flowers have been spread for almost half a year. Has Su Wanqing ever proposed to repent of the marriage? Has the Su family ever done anything? Why not? It's not because there is nothing. Evidence? Now that a Dianwei and a child pop up, what difference will the result be?"

Zhu Youxuan seemed to be poured cold water, his excitement plummeted, feeling a pity: "Is this news of no value at all?"

Lan Dongyu: "To the Zhu family, there is indeed no value at all, but Feng Yuzhai can sell a lot of money after grasping this news."

Zhu Youxuan said, "We can also sell this news."

Lan Dongyu shook his head: "If the Zhu clan sells this news, it will only offend Mu clan and Feng Yuzhai at the same time, which is not worthwhile."

Zhu Youxuan suddenly regretted, and smiled bitterly: "Mr. Guess, if Su Wanqing got the news from Feng Yuzhai, would she believe it or regret her marriage?"

Lan Dongyu: "Su Wanqing is very smart and conceited. Such a woman knows what kind of results are best for her."

Zhu Youxuan thought about it, too: "The Su Family has grasped Mu Shangbai's handle. Mu Shangbai is somewhat guilty. He will definitely make up for Su Wanqing in other ways. The Su Family can also take advantage of this opportunity to reap a lot of benefits."

Speaking of this, Zhu Youxuan realized that he could not get any benefits, and couldn't help being speechless: "Mr. is reasonable, I was impulsive."

What a vain excitement!

Lan Dongyu slowly said: "Master actually don't have to worry, Zhu's is well now, there are no internal and external dangers, and steadily moving forward, so steadily and steadily, he will surely become the number one giant in the Ice and Fire City in a hundred years."

Zhu Youxuan nodded, humbly being taught.

After a cup of tea, Zhu Youxuan, who returned, saw Zhu Quan again.

At this moment, Zhu Quan was sitting on a chair in the living room, eating fruit snacks and drinking vintage wines, and forcibly took a maid, hugged, and lowered her hands.

"Cuihong, this time I made a great contribution to the Zhu family, and the owner of the family will definitely reward me, how about letting the owner of the family reward me?" Zhu Quan's salty pig hand drilled under the skirt of others.

Seeing this scene, Zhu Youxuan felt bored, and his eyes motioned to the guards.

The four guards understood, and rushed to hold Zhu Quan in a fierce manner, carried him out like a pig, and threw him directly into the street.

"What the hell, cross the river and demolish the bridge!" Zhu Quan was furious and cursed.

Feng Yuzhai even rewarded him with twenty thousand liang, but his family didn't even give him any reward, and kicked him out. This is not about crossing the river and demolishing the bridge.

"Bad son, I vowed to avenge this revenge!"

For a while, Zhu Quan gritted his teeth, his face was full of resentment, and his resentment towards Zhu's family reached the extreme.

Zhu Quan thought for a while, his eyes flashed a few times.

"Here, there is no place to keep the master." Zhu Quan snorted angrily, got up, bounced off the dust on his body, and turned and ran towards Daningfang.

He came to Mu Mansion and asked to see Mu Shangbai.

The guard frowned and looked at Zhu Quan. He felt that this man was greasy and sloppy, and said coldly: "Who are you, can you see Young Master if you want to?"

Zhu Quan leaned close to the other's ear and murmured twice.

The guard's face changed, and he said solemnly: "You are waiting here." His eyes motioned to the other guards to stare at Zhu Quan, not to let this person run away.

Then, the guard ran to the mansion.

After a while, the guard returned, welcoming Zhu Quan into the mansion with a smile, and leading Zhu Quan all the way to a confined garden.

Zhu Quan looked up and saw that in the pavilion stood a handsome man with sword eyebrows and stars. His facial features were sharp and sharp, like a carved piece of ice that would last forever.

Zhu Quan had met Mu Shangbai before and recognized it at a glance, and quickly stepped forward to salute: "Zhu Quan, a member of the Zhu clan, has seen the young master of the Mu clan."

Mu Shangbai glanced at Zhu Quan faintly, and said without emotion, "What do you mean by knowing the whereabouts of my child if you don't speak secretly?"

Zhu Quan smiled and said: "It means literally, the woman you played with came to Ice and Fire City by boat, and I happened to be on the boat. I saw her and the baby in her arms."

Mu Shangbai's pupils shrank, her lips as thin as a blade pursed, and he said solemnly, "Where is the child?"

Zhu Quan put up **** and crossed them together: "One hundred thousand taels!" He immediately added, "For your Young Master Mu, one hundred thousand taels is just drizzle, not too much."

Mu Shangbai slapped his hands without saying a word.

A masked man in armor ran over and handed Zhu Quan a silver ticket.

Zhu Quan was overjoyed. He didn't expect that Mu Shangbai was so bold and didn't bargain at all.

Hemp, less!

Suddenly Zhu Quan regretted it very much, and couldn't wait to change his verbal request for five hundred thousand taels!

But he didn't dare to get into his feet, put the banknote into his arms, and said, "Your child is in Ningfu, in Dianwei's hands."

Zhu Quan described how Dian Wei met the woman on the boat and how to hook up with that woman along the way.

Finally, he spread his hand and said: "In this way, Dian Wei deceived your woman's trust, took your child away for his own sake, and made it clear that the plot would be bad for you."

Mu Shangbai was silent for a while: "Who else have you told about this matter?"

Zhu Quan continued: "I know the rules, don't worry, I haven't told anyone except you."

Mu Shangbai turned around: "You can go now."

Zhu Quan left Mu Mansion in a hurry, earning 120,000 taels in one day, which made him crooked with a smile and full of spirits.

"Think about it again, where else can I make a fortune?" Zhu Quan's face was full of greed, and then he thought of Su Mansion.

"I went to Su Wanqing and sold the news before Feng Yu Zhai, and I would be able to blackmail her a lot of money!"

Thinking of this, Zhu Quan was so excited that he was going crazy, Pi Diandian ran towards Su Mansion.

Suddenly, an afterimage of diagonal thorn flashed past.

There was a flower in front of Zhu Quan's eyes. He didn't see anything flashing past his side. He continued to run forward. After a few steps, a bright red liquid was sprayed forward.

"This is, my blood?" Zhu Quan felt the heat in his neck, and when he touched it, his hands were instantly bright red.

Puff puff puff...

Blood gushes out from his neck happily, unable to hold it.

Zhu Quan's eyes widened, and he knelt down on the ground, his mouth opened wide, just wanting to breathe the cheapest air in the world.

It's a pity that he, who has 120,000 taels of silver, can't even buy a mouthful of air.
