After being divorced by four fiancés, I became the Crown Princess of the Empire

Fu family dinner

As the current heir of the Fu family, Fu Zhen can be said to have unlimited scenery.No matter how the world discriminated against him as an illegitimate child, now they have to respectfully call him Patriarch Fu.

First, because of his current status, and second, because of the power in his hands that can deter the entire Fu family.

Even though many nobles in the imperial capital were extremely shameless about his vicious and dirty methods, deep down in their hearts they were somewhat afraid of Fu Zhen.

Power is indeed a good thing, Fu Zhenqing sipped the red wine in his glass, enjoying the attention of everyone.But his eyes kept drifting to the door involuntarily.

--------------------

Qujing came alone this time.

Because Qu Qianzhao and Qu Qinglan were accidentally caught up in something, and Qu Muli couldn't come out because of his supernatural power, so the Patriarch of the Qu family could only let him go to the banquet by himself.

But even without their company, Qujing's identity is enough to represent the Qu family to attend this kind of banquet.It can even be said that his arrival has given the Fu family enough face.

Because a planter who is expected to become a master craftsman in the future will be the highest belief of the new generation of orcs in the mainland.

Standing at the gate of Fu's house, Qu Jing carefully looked around.Although it has been meticulously decorated everywhere, the faint smell of paint still hints that not long ago this place was a purgatory on earth.

Trying to cover up, using the most charming appearance to cover up the filth inside, this really seemed like something Fu Zhen could do.

Qu Jing rubbed Fu Zhen's handwriting on the invitation card with an extremely gentle expression, as if he was nostalgic for the tender days of the past.It's just that those half-closed eyes are too indifferent, even with casual boredom.

With the attention of the attendants, he walked into the hall with a winding path. He didn't attract too many people's attention, but Fu Zhen still saw him.

The well-fitting white morning dress made his slender body extraordinarily flexible and slender, with a calm posture and elegant demeanor, his every move was as elegant and decent as a textbook of etiquette.It seems that because of the different angles, Fu Zhen cannot fully see the five senses of the winding path from a height.But those thin lips with a smile firmly hooked his soul.

After many days, the winding path became more dazzling and more unforgettable.It's a pity that he has someone else in his heart.

Fu Zhen clenched the cup in his hand nervously and stared at him.

It wasn't until a long time later that a guest greeted him before he came back to deal with it.

After dealing with people in a few words, Fu Zhen called a confidant and whispered a few words.

Hearing this, the confidant turned around and left immediately.And Fu Zhen also quietly got out of the banquet and went to the second floor.

----------------------

Halfway through the banquet, the guests enjoyed themselves.Although the host had already left the venue at some point, it was not an important matter for everyone who was already immersed in the happy banquet.But Qu Jing understood that Fu Zhen disappeared, but waited for him in another place.

After all, I suffered such a big loss before, and I finally gave my sincerity and was severely trampled.For a scum like Fu Zhen who only loves himself, he won't give up easily if he doesn't get back the bad debt.

Sure enough, an attendant who appeared out of nowhere spilled red wine on him.The red liquid fell on the white shirt, which was particularly conspicuous.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry." The attendant quickly apologized, and politely said that he could take the winding path upstairs to clean and replace the shirt.

Qujing didn't immediately agree, but looked at him for a while before slowly nodding.

It was really a clumsy trick, Qu Jing raised his eyebrows in disgust, and went up to the second floor with the attendant behind him.

Sure enough, as soon as the door opened, Fu Zhen was waiting inside.

Qujing didn't speak, and Fu Zhen also didn't take the initiative to say hello.

Taking the cleaning solution that can remove red wine stains from the side, he filled it with the softest brush, half-kneeled in front of Qujing, and carefully helped him clean the stains on his shirt.

As the red smudges were removed bit by bit, Fu Zhen's movements became more subtle. Although he was still respectful and intimate, in fact every movement was clearly malicious.

Qu Jing stood where he was, motionless, as if he couldn't feel it at all, and let Fu Zhen do what he did.

"Long time no see, I didn't know that the newly appointed head of the Fu family still has the habit of serving others." He looked down at Fu Zhen in front of him, and he spoke with undisguised sarcasm.

"Aren't you too?" Fu Zhen didn't get up, but looked up at the winding path in a half-kneeling position.His actions were very humble, but the hints hidden in his words were enough to sting people's hearts, because he was using this method to imply Qu Jing's behavior in front of Lu Mingyuan.

"Oh?" After understanding what he meant, Qujing laughed softly.His clear voice was mixed with playful malice, and he asked: "So, you are in love with me?"

The dim light shines through the stained glass lampshade into five blurred colors, and at the same time dyes the gentle and innocent temperament of the young man with a touch of ghostly charm.

Innocent and charming, so straightforward that Fu Zhen couldn't move his eyes away.

He subconsciously asked back: "What if I say yes?"

"That would be a pity." Sighed regretfully, half-closed eyelids and eyelashes brought a charming look, and said slowly, "Because you are not worthy."

Qujing's tone was very gentle, but the coldness in the words made people shudder.His black pupils were silent and unwavering, as if hiding a ferocious beast, almost wanting to devour the person, skin and bones.

This was a blatant warning. He was telling Fu Zhen not to challenge his bottom line easily.

And Fu Zhen also read more hints from his attitude.Every sentence is cold and cold that can break his heart.

They are all smart people, so there is no need to continue to explore after saying this.

What Fu Zhen wanted to ask was whether Fu Lang took the initiative to provoke him before he shot him.And Qu Jing also answered him with a clear attitude, yes, because he felt that Fu Zhen did not deserve to live.

Inferior substitutes have lost the meaning of existence, so they have no value to keep.

The last trace of luck was ruthlessly overthrown, anger mixed with resentment made Fu Zhen look at the winding path like a beast, but he was not as furious as the previous two times, but was able to maintain his graceful demeanor.

He stood up and took the initiative to send the winding path out of the lounge.But before Qujing went out, he left a malicious hint in his ear: "I'm waiting for you to come to me."

Qujing didn't answer, but he replied silently in his heart: "Don't worry, you will definitely get what you want! Because you still owe half of the causal line without breaking."

Back in the banquet hall, business as usual.And Fu Zhen also came down from upstairs, and walked gracefully among the powerful people of the major families, as if nothing had happened just now.

-------------------

For the next few days, it was very peaceful.But Qujing knew that this was just an illusion before the storm came.Sure enough, not long after, a sudden news made the nobles of the imperial capital boil again.

Lu Mingyuan, the most popular member of the parliament, was arrested and imprisoned on suspicion of lax law enforcement and public revenge.The specific situation requires further investigation.However, rumors spread one after another, saying that the root cause of Lu Mingyuan's being dragged into the water was the crooked path.

"The means of illegitimate children are really so dirty and despicable." Qu Qianzhao narrated the whole story and the devious path, and his dislike for Fu Zhen was not concealed in his words.

"It doesn't matter, this is just right." Qu Jing said with a smile: "It just happens to clean up Lu Mingyuan as well."

It turned out that on the day of the Fu family dinner, Lu Mingyuan also received the invitation, but he did not enter the banquet hall.

Under Fu Zhen's design, Lu Mingyuan accidentally peeped into the scene where his boss, Councilor Doyle, was having an affair with his mistress, and accidentally alarmed people.

In desperation, Lu Mingyuan had no choice but to leave quickly, but the people sent by Fu Zhen deliberately left a cuff that was exactly the same as that of Qu Jing's dress jacket that day, creating the illusion that the two of them saw it at the same time.

Congressman Doyle originally came from a poor family, and he came to power only with the support of his wife's family.Worried that the matter would be revealed, under Fu Zhen's instigation, he decided to get rid of Lu Mingyuan, and tried to bring the winding path along with him.

Therefore, after Mr. Doyle returned to the arbitration tribunal, he began to investigate all the cases that Lu Mingyuan had handled.

Among them, the case of the dean of the First Imperial College caught his attention.Because until the end of the case, Xi Luo, one of the important parties, did not appear, and Lu Mingyuan, the memory crystal that judged the dean of the college, did not strictly check the authenticity.

This seems to be a handle.Even a negligible small mistake, for the parliamentary tribunal that requires fairness and justice, it is enough for Lu Mingyuan to be charged with malfeasance.

Therefore, Congressman Doyle overturned the case for the dean, and immediately framed Lu Mingyuan as a judge and put him in prison to receive harsh punishment.

Knowing the law and breaking the law is a felony in the empire, and it almost guarantees death.Lu Mingyuan knew this well, so naturally he would not let go of his confession easily.And Mr. Doyle's original purpose was to kill him and achieve the goal of sealing him forever.Therefore, during the interrogation process, the punishment imposed on Lu Mingyuan became more and more severe.

Fu Zhen hid in the dark, watched the whole process of Lu Mingyuan's torture, and sent a photo of Lu Mingyuan in prison looking embarrassed to Qu Jing.

It must be unbearable for a loved one to be tortured like this.

Thinking that the winding path would be so painful, Fu Zhen felt an indescribable morbid joy in his heart.

------------------------

However, Lu Mingyuan in prison didn't care about the predicament in front of him, and no matter how persecuted by the guards bribed by Mr. Doyle, he never said a single word, and he never said a word like Mr. Doyle's false impression. Offer together.

Because Lu Mingyuan understands that it only looks like a crisis right now, but it is actually not a serious problem.And those so-called punishments are just a formality, and will not bring him too much original damage.As for his keeping silent, it seems to be to keep the winding path, but in fact it is all for his own plan.

In the eyes of outsiders, even if the dean's case was designed by Qu Jing himself to retaliate, and he bent the law for personal gain, there would be no loss to Qu Jing, because with Qu Jing's spiritual talent, the royal family would definitely save his life. It's just that the winding path will be controlled by the royal family in the future, and it won't be as free as it is now.What he did was superfluous.

But in fact, Lu Mingyuan already knew about the relationship between the Qu family and the royal family.The Qu family is the nail that the royal family placed among the nobles to check and balance the rights of all parties.Every bit of honor and honor of the Qu family is bestowed by the royal family.If the winding path is in the Qu family, it also belongs to the royal family.And if he kept the winding path, the royal family would look at him highly, and the Qu family would be very grateful.

The point is that Qujing would feel indebted to him, but for Lu Mingyuan, he wished that Qujing would feel indebted.

Because getting along these few days was enough for him to see some characteristics of the winding path.Qujing is unwilling to default on favors.If others treat him well, he will return ten points.

So Lu Mingyuan was betting, and if he won the bet, he would be able to get the best reason to hold back the crooked path.

In fact, he did bet right.Qujing did go to Fu Zhen.

However, it was not to save him, but to set up a new situation.A situation that can tempt him and make Fu Zhen regret for life in the future.

Fu's

After the clock rang three times, Fu Zhen sat comfortably on the main seat in the front hall.On the table next to his left, warm black tea exudes a curling aroma.But Fu Zhen's attention was entirely on the door facing the entrance of the front hall.

Half an hour ago he got a reply from the winding path, so he is sitting here now, waiting for the winding path to arrive.
