Chapter 146
Lu Heng's resume has already made everyone in the capital look numb, and the experience is so dazzling that people can't even feel jealous. When Mrs. Yongping Hou thought about Lu Heng and her son, she was really heartbroken. She sighed for a while, then regained her mind, and suddenly noticed Hong Wanqing biting her lip, her face in a trance, as if she had something on her mind.
Hong Wanqing's series of anomalies finally caught the attention of Mrs. Yongping Hou. She unknowingly sank and asked, "Wanqing, what happened to you? Ever since you came back from the Shangyuan Festival, you have been distracted. What happened?"
Hong Wanqing hesitated for a long time, and finally tried to tell Wang Yanqing's story: "Mother, in fact, I saw Wang Yanqing on the day of Shangyuan Festival."
When Mrs. Yongping Hou heard the name, her thin eyebrows rose immediately: "What?"
"After the Marquis of Zhenyuan left, you asked me what I was looking at, and I said nothing. Actually, I saw Wang Yanqing passing by with a man. Later, when I met Lu Heng in the palace, I found out that the man that day turned out to be he."
Mrs. Yongping Hou did not expect these words at all, and her face could not help but become serious: "Are you serious?"
"It's absolutely true!" Hong Wanqing couldn't help being excited, she held it back for a long time, and finally spit it out today. She breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at her mother nervously: "Mother, why is she by Lu Heng's side?"
Mrs. Yongping Hou snorted and said coldly: "Why, it's just climbing the dragon and the phoenix. I just said why she was willing to leave Zhenyuan Hou's mansion. It turned out that she climbed the high branch."
Hong Wanqing asked nervously, "Then what should we do next?"
Mrs. Yongping Hou thought for a long time, and finally said solemnly: "This matter is no trivial matter. You should not know about it in the future, and don't worry about anything. You don't need to worry, maybe it's a good thing."
"A good thing?" Hong Wanqing became more and more confused. "She doesn't know how many secrets of Zhenyuan Hou's mansion she has mastered. Now that she has thrown herself to Lu Heng's side, she said that it is almost a threat. How can it be a good thing?"
"Silly girl." Mrs. Yongping Hou looked at her daughter with clear eyes and sighed, "It's not a good thing for the Fu family, but it's the best for you. She and Zhenyuan Hou grew up together, and the ten-year friendship is not just talking. Just kidding, I heard that Lord Fu had always liked her to be his grandson-in-law before, and it is estimated that Hou Zhenyuan regarded her as one of his own. If she disappeared or fell to her death, it would be a life-long hurdle in Hou Zhenyuan's heart, and she will be forever in the future. Thinking about her well, it doesn't look right to you; but if she remarries, she will fall from the clouds and fall into the mud, which is worse than a broken flower and a willow, and she will no longer be the moon in Zhenyuan Hou's heart."
Hong Wanqing's eyes froze, she seemed to understand, but she didn't seem to understand. The Marquis of Yongping stopped when she clicked and said, "Don't worry, she's nothing to be afraid of. Man, that's what you're thinking. As long as it works well, it's not difficult for Marquis Zhenyuan to hate her, and she won't be able to get along with her in the future. You fight for favor."
Hong Wanqing became nervous and asked, "Mother, what are you going to do?"
Mrs. Yongping Hou shook her head and said, "You don't have to worry about it. I'll let your brother do these things, you just need to be a bride in peace."

It has been two months, and Fu Tingzhou has not found Wang Yanqing. In spite of his urgency, he still felt suspicious. He almost checked all households in the capital. Whether Wang Yanqing rented a house, bought a house, or had a pseudonym, he should have found it out under this kind of strength. How could he still not find it?
Fu Tingzhou was at a loss for what to do. Today, he also left Nancheng Bingma Si early, but just after leaving the imperial city, he met the Prince of Yongping Hou.
These days, Fu Tingzhou is busy looking for Wang Yanqing, and has no time to go to the Hong family to propose marriage, but Yongping Houfu has regarded him as his future son-in-law. The prince of Yongping Hou came to chat enthusiastically and invited Fu Tingzhou to go to the restaurant for a few drinks. Fu Tingzhou was actually not interested, but he had to go without giving face to the Hong family.
Yongping Hou Shizi asked for the best box and served a table with good wine and good food. As the two of them, no one cares about the price of a meal, a few glasses of wine, the atmosphere is lively, and the topic gradually opens up.
The Prince of Yongping poured wine for Fu Tingzhou and said lively: "I haven't had a drink with you for a long time. I must not be drunk today. What is the Hou Zhenyuan busy with during this time, why can't I see you anywhere?"
Civil servants and military officers are two circles. These noble children are born with a title, and they don't need to test for fame or make a way out, as long as they can keep the family foundation. Coupled with the relationship between their fathers, these princes and young masters formed a circle of their own, and they were almost familiar with each other. Gradually this has become an unspoken rule. If you want to mix in the military, you must first integrate into this circle, otherwise you will not be able to eat anywhere.
One was Lu Heng, and the other was Fu Tingzhou. Lu Heng only came to the capital when he was eleven years old, and the next year he went to Jinyiwei to serve as his wife. After that, he went on missions from the south to the north, and he really didn't have time to attend the banquet. Of course, even if Lu Heng came, they would not dare to invite him. Lu Heng is a gān or something, inviting him to come on a good fun occasion, isn't it fun to find it by himself?
But Fu Tingzhou is different. He grew up in the capital, and he used to get along well with the people in the circle. Recently, he has suddenly become cold, which is really not right.
Fu Tingzhou was busy looking for Wang Yanqing, but it wasn't that he couldn't see any banquet. But Fu Tingzhou has no intention of explaining that even if he is a child of aristocrats, there are two classes of people who do business and those who do not. Fu Tingzhou patiently accompanied Yongping Hou Shizi to drink, and said lightly, "There is something in the house recently, and I can't go away."
