Vol 5 Chapter 8: three handsome men
Fu Mingrui pondered for a moment, looking at Zhao Cheng and the others behind him: "Go back to the eight gates first, and lead someone to check the brothel, restaurant, and Wang Yi for any enemies. Remember, keep a low profile!"
"Yes!" The four immediately turned and left.
Fu Mingrui pinched the painting in his hand and strode forward.
Yi Jixuan locked the door of the house, and looked at Fu Mingsu gratefully: "Thank you Mingsu for choosing such a good house for me."
Fu Mingsu also returned the gift gently: "Brother, you are welcome. Since I have made an order, I will call someone to clean and repair it tomorrow."
"Excuse me." Both of them behaved in a polite and personable manner.
The two went down the steps together, but they didn't see Fu Mingrui walking towards them. Until Fu Mingrui caught up.
"Brother!"
Fu Mingsu and Yi Jixuan stopped immediately, and when they turned around to look, Fu Mingsu was slightly surprised: "Second brother? Why are you here?"
"Ming Rui, long time no see." Yi Jixuan saluted with a smile.
Fu Mingrui stepped forward to look at Yi Jixuan in surprise: "Brother is here? I've been at the eight gates recently, and I haven't welcomed my brother, so I invite my brother Haihan."
"What did Mingrui say? I'm the one who bothered you. The eight gates are duty-bound to maintain the security of the capital. Mingrui has worked so hard." When Yi Jixuan said these words, he was also full of admiration for Mingrui.
Fu Mingrui looked at Fu Mingsu: "My uncle is here, why didn't you notify me?"
Fu Mingsu smiled, and patted Fu Mingrui on the chest: "You are so busy, how dare you come to disturb you, brother, you don't know, these eight doors are busy, Mingrui often does not come home for ten and a half months There are things." Fu Mingsu said with a smile, but his eyes overflowed with pity for Fu Mingrui, "My younger brother will soon live in Eight Doors."
"Hahaha, Mingrui is dedicated to his duty, which is admirable!" Yi Jixuan said, and clasped his fists at Fumingrui in admiration.
"This is my job, it's nothing to worry about." Fu Mingrui replied humbly.
"You didn't come back to solve the case a few days ago, so the case will be closed?" Fu Mingsu asked with concern, "Uncle is here today, can you go home and welcome him?" Fu Mingsu felt that Fu Mingrui These days, I have become thinner again, and I feel sorry for it.
Fu Mingrui squeezed the picture scroll in his hand, smiled faintly: "I'm free today, I'm going home, uncle, let's have a good drink tonight."
"Okay!" Both Yi Jixuan and Fu Mingsu showed joy in their eyes.
Under the setting sun, three handsome men with jade trees facing the wind walked together, becoming a beautiful scenery along the road. The son of the Fu family is beautiful and civilized in the capital, and the women in the capital are willing to be their concubines even if they are just to be their concubines.
For some women in the Qian Dynasty, they would always be other people's concubines. It was joy and happiness to be the concubine of a middle-aged bald man with a big belly.
"Second brother, third brother will be back soon." On the way back, Fu Mingsu happily said to Mingsu.
Fu Mingrui's eyes showed joy: "The third brother is coming back?"
"Is it for the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet?" Yi Jixuan had also heard about the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet.
Hearing about participating in the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet, Fu Mingrui already understood what his father meant by asking his third brother to come back.
Fu Mingsu looked at Fu Mingrui's expression for a moment, then lowered his eyes and smiled lightly: "Father knows your temper, so he asked the third brother to come back. The seventh princess and the third brother are also about the same age, but there are some things that cannot be forced." Fu Mingsu gently Patting Fu Mingrui on the back, the last sentence seemed to say that if the princess didn't like the third child, there was nothing she could do. In fact, he was saying that his father respected Fu Mingrui, so he didn't force Fu Mingrui to pursue the princess.
Fu Mingrui frowned slightly.
Yi Jixuan walked aside and heard the code words between the brothers, and smiled to smooth things over: "I heard that the seventh princess is lively and lovely, delicate and beautiful, and she is the jewel in the emperor's palm. Who wouldn't want to be the emperor's son-in-law? It's a pity that I am not a relative of the emperor. The relatives of the state are not the sons of the Great Yuan Dynasty, so they are not eligible to participate in the Mid-Autumn Festival Banquet, otherwise, I will go after Her Royal Highness. Hahaha..."
Yi Jixuan changed the subject, but Fu Mingrui had other thoughts in his mind. He raised his eyes to look at Fu Mingsu: "Brother, I heard that you took the little prince to Jiumen to meet Miss Lian a few days ago?"
Hearing the word "Miss Lian", Yi Jixuan couldn't help looking at the brothers of the Fu family. From Fu Mingrui's expression and tone, he could see that Fu Mingrui seemed to know the mysterious Lian Youyou, and they had a relationship. Not shallow.
Fu Mingsu was slightly startled, and sighed helplessly: "Look at you, and you still say you don't like her? I'm talking about the princess and the third brother here, but you are still thinking about that Lianyouyou." Fu Mingsu's heart Wei Wei sank, his younger brother was really fascinated by that Lian Youyou.
Fu Mingrui's face turned red unconcealably, and his complexion sank slightly: "Brother, don't be joking, I just want to know what happened in that case, whether there is really..." Fu Mingrui stopped talking at this point, He glanced at Yi Jixuan with some consideration.
Yi Jixuan noticed it, and immediately turned his face away to look elsewhere. This businessman has naturally attained a perfect level of proficiency in observing words and expressions.
Fu Mingsu saw Fu Mingrui's scruples, and smiled: "Mingrui, you don't have to worry about big brother, big brother is worse than us in getting in touch with this yin and yang thing, just look at the jade pendant on his body, it's a celestial master As a gift, it is said that when encountering ghosts, it will ring by itself."
Fu Mingrui was slightly surprised, and looked at Yi Jixuan's waist.
Yi Jixuan also turned back and lifted his jade pendant, and looked at Fu Mingrui with a smile: "Why, Mingrui is worried that talking about ghosts will scare me? Hahaha... To tell you the truth, brother, I have a negative physique since I was young , easy to attract ghosts and ghosts, I really saw many things that others couldn't see when I was a child, so my father invited Tianshi Zhang Zilin to do it for me, and our Yi family got acquainted with Zhang Tianshi."
Although Fu Mingrui was surprised, he was still skeptical: "Did you really see that ghost? What is that ghost...?" Fu Mingrui's eyes sharpened suddenly, and an inexplicable rivalry suddenly arose in his heart. He, Fu Mingrui, had actually seen it, and he didn't believe that others could see it. The celestial master Yi Jixuan was talking about was probably just a folk trickster.
The smile on Yi Jixuan's face suddenly faded away, his complexion became tense, and Yan Shen flickered, as if he didn't want to recall more: "In short...it's different from what ordinary people say...what I saw when I was a child...was a person with a strange and terrifying appearance. , wandering around my room from time to time, screaming in pain... monsters..." Yi Jixuan mentioned it now, his whole body was still trembling involuntarily.
Fu Mingrui heard him say that he had a strange appearance, and knew the truth in his heart.
At dusk, a cloudy wind suddenly blew up on the flat ground, blowing the back of Fu Mingsu's neck a little cold, he couldn't help laughing and said: "Hey, hey, it's almost dusk, can you stop talking about ghosts?"
"Hahaha—" Yi Jixuan laughed and patted Fu Mingsu on the back.
