Chapter 186 Cheap

Zhu Fu.

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

This courtyard is forbidden!

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

Because there is a capable man and a strange man 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 select a new generation of Patriarch from among several outstanding sons.

In a world that respects strength, the Martial Dao family doesn't really value the eldest son inheritance system.

Whoever is more capable is in power.

Moreover, it does not only look at personal force, but also the future potential, as well as the comprehensive talents in various aspects such as temperament, resourcefulness, financial management, and conduct in the world.

Zhu's blood is prosperous, and the old master has many heirs, so the competition is naturally quite fierce.

Zhu Youxuan also participated in the battle for the heir apparent.

But back then, his odds weren't great until he met a fortune teller.

The self-proclaimed Fortune Master, whose surname is Lan and whose name is Dongyu, is unattractive and blind. He sets up a fortune-telling stall under the stone bridge and earns a little money to make ends meet.

Zhu Youxuan heard someone mention by chance that this blind man was very accurate in fortune-telling, and it was because he leaked too many secrets that he became blind.

Just a charlatan.

Zhu Youxuan didn't believe it at first, but he couldn't help being curious and asked Lan Dongyu for a fortune-telling.

Never expected that Lan Dongyu actually had real skills, able to pinch and count, and made Zhu Youxuan stunned and deeply impressed.

Afterwards, Zhu Youxuan, who was thirsty for talents, put down his dignity, respected the virtuous corporal, and invited Lan Dongyu back to the mansion, treating him as a confidant.

From then on, Zhu Youxuan was out of control!

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

At this moment, Zhu Youxuan was in high spirits, walked quickly into the other courtyard, passed through a lush green bamboo forest, and came to a bamboo house.

Under the eaves, by the warm fire.

A white-haired old man with his eyes closed was leisurely drinking tea, and beside him was a maid in red, holding an ancient bamboo scroll, reading to the old man with clear cadences.

See sir.

The maid saw Zhu Youxuan coming,

Stop quickly, stand up and bow.

An Cui, you go down first.

Zhu Youxuan smiled and waved his hands, sat down opposite to 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 slight smile, This winter is so cold, the old man made a calculation earlier, it doesn't look like there is going to be a big happy event.

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

Lan Dongyu tilted his head: Oh, could it be that the stone was hammered?

Zhu Youxuan: It's not just 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 very flat: That's it?

Zhu Youxuan asked in surprise, Sir, don't you think this is a good opportunity to kill three birds with one stone?

Lan Dongyu: What is killing three birds with one stone?

Zhu Youxuan clapped his fingers and said in detail:

First, the marriage between Mu Shangbai and Su Wanqing is basically over. The failure of the marriage between the richest Mu family and the richest Su family is great news for me, Zhu family;

Second, Mu Shangbai's child is in Dian Wei's hands. He can't marry Su Wanqing, so he must resent Dian Wei. Conflict with the Ning family is inevitable. As long as we secretly contribute to the destruction of the Ning family and seize his family property, it will be easy;

Thirdly, the Mu family is divided into two factions, the 'Water School' who practice Shangshan Rushui and the 'Cold School' who practice Ice Demon Art.

Mu Shangbai is a member of the Han faction. This time he was betrayed by the water faction. His marriage is ruined and his reputation is bad. Shi is equally beneficial, isn't it?

Lan Dongyu didn't say a word about this, and asked instead: The child in Dianwei's hand belongs to Mu Shangbai, who can prove it?

Zhu Youxuan frowned: This...

Lan Dongyu: Warriors have abnormal blood in their bodies. They are different from ordinary people and bloody warriors. 'Recognizing relatives with blood' will not work. A father who practiced martial arts and a child who did not practice martial arts, blood is incompatible. In other words , as long as Mu Shangbai doesn't admit that the child is his, then it doesn't belong to him, and no one can produce evidence to identify him, right?

Zhu Youxuan was speechless.

Lan Dongyu continued to ask: The rumors about Mu Shangbai's chaos and abandonment have been circulating for almost half a year. Has Su Wanqing ever proposed to regret the marriage? Has the Su family made any moves? Why not? It's not because there is no one. Evidence? Now that a Dian Wei and a child appear, what difference will there be in the result?

Zhu Youxuan seemed to have been poured cold water, and his excitement plummeted, feeling a pity: Is this news worthless?

Lan Dongyu: To the Zhu family, it is indeed of no value at all, but Fengyuzhai has grasped the news, but it can sell for a lot of money.

Zhu Youxuan spread his hands and said, We can also sell this news.

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

Zhu Youxuan was filled with regret immediately, and said with a wry smile: Then guess what, if Su Wanqing got the news from Fengyuzhai, would she believe it, would she regret the marriage?

Lan Dongyu: Su Wanqing is very smart, but also very conceited. Such a woman knows what is the best outcome for her.

Zhu Youxuan thought about it too: The Su family caught 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 the opportunity to reap a lot of benefits.

Speaking of this, Zhu Youxuan realized that he could not get any benefit, so he couldn't help saying: Mr. is right, I was impulsive.

What a waste of excitement!

Lan Dongyu said slowly: Master, there is no need to worry. The Zhu family is in good health now, there is no internal trouble or external danger, and it is moving forward steadily. If it continues so steadily, it will definitely become the number one wealthy family in Ice and Fire City in a hundred years.

Zhu Youxuan nodded, humbly receptive.

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

At this moment, Zhu Quan was sitting carelessly on a chair in the living room, eating fruit snacks, drinking vintage wine, and forcibly grabbing a maid, hugging her, and raising her hands.

Cuihong, this time I have made great contributions to the Zhu family, the owner will definitely reward me heavily, how about I ask the owner to reward you? Zhu Quan's salty pig's hand slipped under the other's skirt.

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

The four guards understood, rushed over aggressively and held Zhu Quan down, carried him out like a pig, and threw him directly into the street.

What the hell, cross the river and tear down the bridge! Zhu Quan was furious and cursed.

Fengyuzhai even rewarded him with 20,000 taels, but his family didn't give him any reward and kicked him out.

Bastard, I swear to take revenge!

For a moment, Zhu Quan gritted his teeth, his face was full of resentment, and his resentment towards Zhu Shi reached the extreme.

Zhu Quan thought about it sullenly, and suddenly his eyes flickered a few times.

If you don't stay here, you have a place to stay. Zhu Quan snorted angrily, got up, flicked off the dust on his body, turned and ran towards Daningfang.

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

The guard frowned and looked at Zhu Quan, thinking that this man was greasy and sloppy, and said coldly: Who are you, young master, is it something you can see if you want?

Zhu Quan leaned closer to the other party's ear and muttered twice.

The guard's face changed, and he said in a deep voice, You wait here. His eyes signaled the other guards to keep a close eye on Zhu Quan, and don't let this man run away.

Then, the guard ran to the mansion.

After a while, the guard returned, welcomed Zhu Quan into the mansion with a smiling face, and led Zhu Quan all the way to a confinement garden.

Zhu Quan looked up, and there was a handsome man with sword eyebrows and starry eyes standing in the pavilion with his hands behind his back. His facial features were sharp and angular, like a piece of ice that would never melt.

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

Mu Shangbai glanced at Zhu Quan lightly, and said in a tone of no emotion: Ming people don't slander, what do you mean when you say you know my child's whereabouts?

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

Mu Shangbai's pupils shrank, his lips as thin as a knife's edge were pursed, and he said in a deep voice, Where is the child?

Zhu Quan held up two fingers and crossed them together: One hundred thousand taels! He immediately added, For you, Young Master Mu, one hundred thousand taels is just drizzle, not too much.

Without saying a word, Mu Shangbai clapped his hands with a snap.

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

Zhu Quan was overjoyed, he didn't expect Mu Shangbai to be so forthright, and he didn't bargain at all.

Hemp, less!

Zhu Quan suddenly regretted it so much that he wished he could change his words and ask for 500,000 taels!

But he didn't dare to go any further, he stuffed the bank note into his bosom, and said repeatedly: Your child is in Ning Mansion, in Dian Wei's hands.

Zhu Quan described the woman Dian Wei met by chance on the boat and how he hooked up with that woman along the way.

Finally, he spread his hands and said: That's it, Dian Wei cheated your woman's trust, took your child away and took it for himself, and made it clear that he planned to do something wrong, and it was going to be against you.

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

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

Mu Shangbai turned around: You can go.

Zhu Quan hurriedly left the Mu Mansion, earning 120,000 taels in one day, which made him smile so hard that his face was distorted and he was full of vigor.

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

I'll go find Su Wanqing and sell this news before Fengyuzhai. I'm sure I can blackmail her a lot of money!

Thinking of this, Zhu Quan was so excited that he almost went crazy, and ran towards the Su residence.

Suddenly, an afterimage flashed diagonally.

Zhu Quan's eyes were blurred, he didn't see something flashing past him clearly, he continued to run forward, and within a few steps, a bright red liquid suddenly sprayed forward.

This is, my blood? Zhu Quan felt his neck was so hot, touched it, and his hands were instantly bright red.

Puff Chi Chi...

Blood gushed out of his neck cheerfully, unable to hold back.

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

Unfortunately, with 120,000 taels of silver, he couldn't even buy a breath of air.
