Wei Yan went to the military camp when he was very young, and most of the people he came into contact with were straightforward, iron-blooded and real men. Although he is not a straight man of steel, he has nothing to do with being gentle and affectionate. .

Just like now, because he felt that he came back from his busy schedule because he wanted to meet Fu Li and Brother Jin, and he didn't want to have other people present today, so he quickly said: "Today, there are guests in the house. , I won’t entertain Miss Zhao anymore, please forgive me.”

After finishing speaking, he directly signaled the butler standing next to him to send him away.

Miss Zhao was stunned

Although Mrs. Wei once mentioned that they should get married, in fact, due to different reasons between men and women, there are few opportunities for them to meet each other, let alone have the opportunity to get along face to face like they are now.When Wei Yan rejected Mrs. Wei's suggestion of marriage, there was no possibility of the two of them meeting each other.

Now that he finally had a chance to get along with Wei Yan, Wei Yan didn't even say a word to her, so he wanted someone to see her off?

Although she is a person who is good at disguising, Miss Zhao still feels a little overwhelmed by the attitude of her sweetheart: "Mr. ...Send it away, aren't you afraid that it will be spread and people will see it as a joke?"

Wei Yan frowned: "There are no female relatives in the mansion, even if you are here, there will be no one to entertain you. If you are not sent home, is it the way to entertain guests by letting you stay in the mansion and just sit around?"

Miss Zhao stared straight at her, almost revealing her nature, pointing at Fu Li and yelling at her.

However, looking at Wei Yan's impatient face, she held back after all, but said cautiously: "But isn't this lady also a woman?"

Since there is no female family member in the Dingwei Hou Mansion to entertain her, could it be that a female family member suddenly appeared at this strange woman's place?

Wei Yan glanced at her, and said coldly: "What does it have to do with you? Butler, see off the guests!"

Miss Zhao seemed to want to say something, but Wei Ruolan next to her couldn't sit still, and said to the housekeeper excitedly: "Did you hear that, father told you to see off the guests quickly!"

Between the old lady and Wei Ruolan, the housekeeper might choose to listen to the old lady's words, but between Wei Yan and the old lady, the housekeeper would naturally choose to listen to Wei Yan's words without hesitation.

After bowing and saluting, he went directly to Miss Zhao: "Miss Zhao, please!"

Miss Zhao stared at Wei Ruolan indiscriminately, and then reluctantly said to the little Miss Zhao who was behind Wei Ruolan: "You didn't... Sese, we should go!"

Looking at Miss Zhao's unwilling eyes, Wei Ruolan smiled happily.

Blinking her eyes, the smile on Wei Ruolan's face suddenly became malicious: "Father, I forgot to tell you something. Miss Zhao came to visit today, but the concierge didn't inform me. It was after taking Aunt Fu and Brother Jin to the back garden that I saw them sitting in the Huxin Pavilion. I asked her why, but Ms. Zhao said that the old lady allowed him to come to the door at any time, and there was no need to notify .”

Wei Yan frowned subconsciously, and it was easy to remember that the old lady wanted to arrange this wife and sister to be his stepmother.

Worried about Fu Li's misunderstanding, he said directly to the housekeeper: "There are so many people in the capital, I have never heard that someone who visits as a guest does not need to communicate. Today is all, and if Miss Zhao comes to the house in the future, she must be like other people. Hand over the invitation in advance and pass it on to the porter before you can welcome people in, otherwise..."

He looked at the butler coldly, "You can hand over your butler to other people!"

The old housekeeper that Wei Yan took to Bazhou Mansion before resigned from his position after returning to Beijing, returned home to be raised, and no longer took care of the affairs of the mansion.Now the housekeeper was picked up by the old lady. Except for Wei Yan, the real master of the Dingweihou Mansion, he is also loyal to the old lady. No matter what she orders, he will regard it as an imperial decree , not allowed to be violated by others.

Although Wei Yan didn't know what was going on with the housekeeper, he was not as trusting and close to him as the old housekeeper before.

Now that he heard his son complaining in such a roundabout way, he also had speculations about his actions in his heart, and was dissatisfied because of it.It's just that the old lady was his mother after all, and before the housekeeper made a mistake, he decided to reluctantly keep her.

but……

"Remember from now on, what Lang Geer says is mine. If you let me know that you don't take Lang Geer's words seriously, I don't think you need to stay in Dingwei Hou's Mansion." Wei Yan's eyes were light, and he said But the words cannot be ignored, "I Ding Weihou's Mansion can't tolerate those servants who are waiting to ride on the master's neck."

The butler was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat, and he agreed again and again, not daring to think that he would despise Uncle Lan just because he was the old lady's confidant.

Because of this, when the housekeeper asked the two girls to leave, his attitude became much tougher.

Miss Zhao's face turned pale from the series of events, and she was even more ashamed and indignant.

Didn't Auntie say at home that not only was the old lady very fond of her, but also Lord Wei and Cousin Lan valued her a lot?Judging from today's various performances, we don't know what Marquis Wei thought of his aunt before, but it is a fact that he was quite unfamiliar with her. Cousin Guanlan's attitude towards his aunt, not to mention being close to her, he is simply I wish I could drive my aunt out of the Hou Mansion directly!

Thinking about the fact that before entering the door today, my aunt had vowed to boast that she didn't need to pass on the fact that she entered the door, and compared with the current changes, Miss Zhao really wanted to hide her face and run away, never to go to the door of Dingweihou Mansion again!

However, Miss Zhao wanted to leave, but Miss Zhao didn't.

Especially after hearing that Wei Yan didn't care that she was there at the scene, and directly took away her right to enter and leave the Dingweihou Mansion at will in the future, her whole face flushed red

Not ashamed, but angry.

She was about to open her mouth to reason, and even wanted to use the old lady to suppress Wei Yan just like Wei Ruolan was suppressed before.

However, the butler is a good player who adapts to the wind. Seeing her move, he directly raised his hand to let the maids on both sides cover her mouth, and dragged her away from the garden.

Miss Zhao: "..."

She is really ashamed to see people now!

Little Miss Zhao endured the embarrassment, and after saluting to Wei Yan and the others, she trotted up to Miss Zhao, even passed her, and ran towards the gate.

Fu Li saw everything in his eyes, and couldn't help sighing: "It's a pity, Miss Zhao."

Wei Ruolan smiled: "It's just like this in this world. One family is prosperous and the other is damaged. The Zhao family did not raise their aunt well, so that it hurt other female family members in the family. This is something that can be expected. Believe it After the two go back this time, Miss Zhao will definitely tell Grandpa and the others what she saw and heard today, if they are still unwilling to restrain my aunt..."

Wei Yan took a look at Wei Ruolan, and curled his lips: "You can make up your own mind about the Zhao family, you don't need to discuss it with me."

Wei Ruolan froze for a moment, then looked at Wei Yan in shock: "Father, is what you said true?"

Wei Yan nodded: "When your mother left, the Zhao family followed the crown prince, and it was a glorious moment, but my Wei family was still in decline. Because of the poor status, the relationship between the two families has always been estranged. Two years after your mother left, the Zhao family met During the New Year holidays, no one was even sent to bring gifts, let alone to visit you. The relationship between the Wei family and the Zhao family has long been estranged, and now the two families are still walking around, and it is only because of you. What kind of attitude, I will decide what the Weihou Mansion's attitude is towards the Zhao family."

Wei Ruolan was a little puzzled: "If that's the case, why did the old lady insist on letting my aunt marry you after her son had expressed his dislike for her, and didn't give up the idea until you denied it personally?"

Wei Yan subconsciously turned his head to look at Fu Li, but saw that she was excited

, didn't seem to take this matter to heart.

Wei Yan couldn't tell what he was thinking at this time, he only knew that after realizing that Fu Li didn't care about someone who wanted to marry him, he was not as happy as he imagined, but rather bored.

Wei Yan never spoke, Fu Li turned to look at him with puzzled eyes, as if to say, why didn't he answer Lang Geer's question.

Wei Yan laughed at himself, shook his head and looked at Wei Ruolan: "The old lady is also thinking about you. If you have to marry another girl who doesn't know your background, it's better to marry your aunt. If you have a relationship in the first place , she will definitely treat you well."

As soon as these words came out, let alone Fu Li, even Wei Ruolan looked disgusted.

Wei Yan was stunned: "Is there anything wrong with saying being a father?"

Wei Ruolan curled her lips, and replied: "If you really married my aunt and came in, with her habitual love of acting and the old lady's love for her, I really can't tell."

Fu Li smiled, and also chimed in, telling Wei Yan about the dangers of remarrying his wife and sister.

After hearing this, Wei Yan was stunned, and then said with a look of fear, "I didn't know that there are so many details behind the remarriage."

Fu Li laughed loudly: "Anyway, you have already rejected the marriage with Ms. Zhao, and you should pay attention to keeping a distance from her in the future, and don't let her take advantage of the loopholes."

Wei Yan glanced at Fu Li, smiled and nodded.

Wei Ruolan also nodded at the side, as if to say that with him around, she would never let my aunt be half a meter away from her father.

On the contrary, Brother Jin, who had quietly stood beside Fu Li and held her right hand, stared at Wei Yan with a scrutiny, as if evaluating something.

Wei Yan's gaze inadvertently fell on his serious little face, and for some reason, he felt a little guilty

Although he immediately rejected the matter when he learned that his mother intended to match him with his wife and sister, it is unclear whether this matter happened after he expressed his affection for Fu Li and asked him to marry him. It was because he didn't make it clear with his family that it caused such a misunderstanding.

Although Fu Li didn't care, but looking at Brother Jin's performance, he obviously disagreed with it.

And Fu Li respects Jin Ge'er's thoughts and opinions very much. If Jin Ge'er really has bad thoughts about him because of this, based on Fu Li's various behaviors when facing herself, even if she won't break the relationship with him directly , but he will definitely be more cautious about getting married.

Thinking of this, Wei Yan couldn't help feeling a little sad

It has been several years since he expressed his affection to Fu Li and put forward the idea of ​​asking for marriage, but Fu Li's attitude towards him has changed obviously, and it seems that he has really been listed again. For the sake of future husband-in-law, but seeing her rational and sober performance when facing him, Wei Yan knew that if any unexpected changes happened, Fu Li would definitely leave immediately.

Thinking in this way, Wei Yan made a decision in his heart, and he must find an opportunity to explain it to Brother Jin, so that he won't be really sad because of this oolong affecting his marriage.

Fu Li has been looking at Wei Yan and his son, seeing his eyes fall on Brother Jin at this moment, he couldn't help but look down at Brother Jin, and then saw the hesitation and scrutiny in his eyes.

All these years, when Fu Li rarely saw him so serious and calm, the appearance of this little adult easily amused her: "Brother Jin, what are you thinking, why is your expression so serious?"

Brother Jin raised his head to meet Fu Li's eyes, subconsciously pursed his lips and smiled: "Mother, it's nothing."

Fu Li nodded thoughtfully, without further questioning.

It was not a pleasant experience to meet two Ms. Zhao. After they sat down, they simply forgot about them and did not bring up topics related to them.

Wei Yan spoke first: "You said in your letter that the main reason for going to Beijing this time was to mourn your father? Your father..."

Fu Li smiled, and told Wei Yan about his life experience without hesitation.At the end, he sighed: "Before when they said they were seriously ill, I thought they were fooling me. In addition, there was no way to get rid of the matter in Bazhou Prefecture in a short time, so I didn't go to Beijing immediately. Who knows less than half My father went there after the incident lasted for a month. Fortunately, the land was almost cleaned up, so I simply took Mrs. Tian's family and Cai Li to Beijing. Apart from condolences to my father, I also planned to open a few stores in the capital. .”

As she said that, she looked at Wei Yan, "You also know that if you don't have a strong backer to open a store in this capital, no matter how good the business is, you can only let others decide. I'm just an ordinary person. When I get to the capital, I can only rely on You local snake helped take care of Yi Er."

Wei Yan laughed: "Why are you worried about not having a backer? Don't say that my big Dingweihou Mansion is here, even those who don't have eyes will dare not offend you. Just say that you have contributed to the fourth prince before. , as long as you come to the door with a gift, even if you open the shop all over the capital, no one will come to find fault with the store."

Naturally, Wei Yan didn't mention the fourth prince casually, and Fu Li was not stupid, so he naturally heard his implication that he wanted her to visit the fourth prince's mansion sometime.

After careful calculation, Fu Li can barely be regarded as a party of the Four Princes. This time he went to Beijing, and he also planned to open a shop in the capital, so he came to say hello to the Four Princes.

It's just that Fu Li didn't think of this before, but now that Wei Yan mentioned it, she simply nodded: "After a while, I will definitely come to visit the Fourth Prince with a gift."

Wei Yan raised his eyebrows, seeming to disagree with this, but thinking that Fu Li might have his own considerations, he didn't force her to visit the Fourth Prince's Mansion before opening the shop.

He thought for a while, and introduced: "You are a woman, even if you come to visit, it is not convenient for the Fourth Prince to receive you in person. It is no accident that I will meet you at that time, it must be the Fourth Prince's Concubine."

"The relationship between the Fourth Prince and the Fourth Prince is not very good, but it is definitely not bad. The Fourth Prince's temperament is quite gentle and virtuous. In the entire Fourth Prince's Mansion, except for the Fourth Prince, she is almost the same. The Fourth Prince She also respects her a lot. So when you come to the door, you must be careful not to offend her."

"But after all, you have contributed to the fourth prince, the emperor, and the whole Great Xia, and the fourth prince admires and is very curious about you, so when you face the fourth prince, you must not be too cautious, or even feel afraid."

Fu Li nodded, taking these words seriously.

After talking about his visit to the fourth prince's mansion, Wei Yan turned to mention the big things he was busy with recently: "Recently, people in the capital are in panic because of the debt from the treasury. If you want to open a shop, you'd better avoid waiting for this I'll talk about it after the turmoil has passed. I'm not scaremongering, but the matter of the fourth prince's debt collection has caused a great uproar. The entire capital city has no money owed to the treasury. The families of officials and dignitaries can count on the palm of their hands. Among them, they borrowed the treasury money and directly took There are countless people who go to eat, drink and have fun.”

"But these national thieves and ghosts are the main customers of those merchants. Now that the fourth prince is watching them, these people don't dare to hang around in places that cost a lot, but they can't get rid of the playboys who play cats and dogs. Habits, when the time comes, it will inevitably focus on newly opened shops such as Zhougong Noodle House, which have good food taste and good reputation, and there will inevitably be a lot of friction at that time.”

Fu Li had already made plans to postpone the opening of the store after hearing from Wei Ruolan that the fourth prince was taking Wei Yan around to collect debts. Now, hearing Wei Yan's reminder, her attitude became more and more cautious: "You Don't worry, the situation here in the capital is different from that in Bazhou Prefecture, or even in other places, and there is no room for a little bit of missteps.

The industry is very important, but it is not a joke. "

Wei Yan had been thinking about this matter before, and was worried that Fu Li had just arrived in the capital and didn't know the situation here, so he would run into trouble after rashly opening a shop.Although he could solve her troubles afterwards, what if something irreversible happened before he found out?

Not to mention other things, at least Fu Li's beautiful face is enough to make those people have other thoughts.

The so-called playboys, those who don't pay much attention to women's sex are in the minority.

Seeing Fu Li's solemn expression now, he obviously listened to his words, and he felt relieved: "Speaking of which, because of the fourth prince's pursuit of the arrears, there was a murder case last year."

Fu Li was curious: "Murder?"

Wei Yan nodded, with a mocking smile: "Although the fourth prince has only officially taken over the matter of recovering the arrears in the past few days, and the flood of the Yellow River has only been reported to the capital a few days ago, the treasury has already There is not much money owed. The fourth prince who works in the household department has known it for a long time, and has always wanted to share the emperor's worries and recover all the arrears. With the character of the four princes who will not give up until they achieve their goals, the court, Chinese, military officials also We all know that as long as the fourth prince seizes the opportunity, he will definitely find out about this matter."

"The fourth prince mentioned it a lot. Although the emperor relied on the Ministry of Internal Affairs to support himself and the expenses of the harem, he still didn't take this matter to heart, but everyone's fear of the fourth prince has long been imprinted in their hearts. Beijing has power and influence. The family has decisively reduced their family expenses, and began to consciously save money to cope with possible accountability in the future, so that the dandies who originally spent a lot of money will naturally bear the brunt of it."

"But the habits of dudes are hard to change. Even if they don't have money, those people can't help but hang out in the places they used to hang out." Wei Yan couldn't help frowning when he mentioned these nonsense and didn't do anything but only know how to have fun, " A few days ago, there was news from Moguzhai that someone had consigned an antique for a high price, but its quality was also quite rare, and it was a rare good thing. The object seemed to be a snuff bottle, and many people in the capital were very fond of it. I liked it very much, so the news came out that many guests went there on the same day. One of them didn't have enough silver in his hand to buy the snuff bottle because his family controlled the gold and silver, but he wanted the snuff bottle very much, so he relied on The power in the family forcibly took away the snuff bottle."

"It is said that the owner of the snuff bottle didn't dare to report to the police even after being beaten because of the opponent's power, but after returning home, he became more and more angry, and finally died of anger."

Fu Li frowned, subconsciously thinking of the original owner's father, Fu Xiucai.

Because of this guess, Fu Li listened more seriously to what Wei Yan said.Wei Yan noticed it, and although he didn't understand it, he couldn't help but explain it in more detail when he spoke again.

"It's ridiculous to say it," Wei Yan looked at Fu Li, "Miss Fu, do you still remember that when Brother Jin was born, he was poisoned by Xue's spices?"

Fu Li nodded, his eyes darkened.

Although that incident has passed for a long time, Fu Li still remembers all kinds of reactions after Brother Jin was poisoned, and has never forgotten it.

In the previous two lives, because of space, Fu Li rarely encountered such powerless and desperate situations.

"This dude who forcibly robbed other people's snuff bottles is also inextricably linked with this Xue family." Wei Yan looked at Fu Li, saw that she listened seriously, and continued, "The dude's surname is Wang, and his ancestor is the governor. After the Taiwei ruled the county uncle and prince, the current head of the royal family has two beautiful daughters, one married into the Rongguo Mansion and became the second daughter-in-law of the Rongguo Mansion, and the other married into the Xue family and became the daughter of the Xue family. The housewife. The two sisters and two brothers, one named Wang Ziteng, originally had a promising future, but because of the involvement of the Xue family spice incident before, they are still serving as soldiers in the camp in the suburbs of Beijing, and have never been promoted. The other is called Wang Ziteng Sheng, who was originally the eldest son, was doted on by the elders of the family and achieved nothing. In the end, he could not achieve high and low, not to mention his future, even if he stood up for the family. It killed people last year."

Fu Li was stunned for a while. She thought that the person who killed Fu Xiucai would be Jia Amnesty, but she didn't expect it to be Wang Zisheng.

Although this Wang Zisheng did not appear in the original work a few times, he has several quite well-known identities

He is the biological father of Wang Xifeng, one of the twelve beauties, Feng Lazi, and the biological brother of Wang Ziteng, one of the two pillars of the four major families, and the biological brother of Mrs. Wang and Aunt Xue.

It's just that the title of the Wang family is relatively low, and it has been passed down to the end when it was passed down to Wang Zisheng's generation.It just so happens that this generation of Prince Teng is very promising, although he is the second son, but he is more promising than the eldest son, so staying in the capital has great potential, so as the eldest son of the royal family, Wang Zisheng, a worthless man, moved back to Jinling after his daughter got married to be his son. The local emperor went.

However, because of Fu Li's crossing, Xue's spices were exposed, and Wang Ziteng was implicated. So far, he is only a small boss in the camp in the suburbs of Beijing, and he is really not worth it.So Wang Zisheng, who was able to take off his burden and return to Jinling because Wang Ziteng was too powerful, still stays in the capital to make trouble.

Then, such a murder case occurred.

But thinking about the behavior of the Wang family in the Dream of Red Mansions, it is perfectly normal for Wang Zisheng to rob other people’s antiques so arrogantly. After all, Wang Xifeng, one of the twelve beauties, even once uttered nonsense, saying, "Even if we sue our family for treason, it’s fine." In this case.As Wang Xifeng's father, it's normal for Wang Zisheng to act and think more arrogantly than Wang Xifeng, not to mention that he just robbed other people's antiques, and he is not even as good as Jia Yucun who framed stones in order to please Jia She. The idiot defaulted on the official money, then sent the person to prison and ransacked his home, and in the end he didn't know his life or death.

Fu Li sneered: "These four big families are really a nest of snakes and rats, and they all behave in the same way."

Wei Yan was stunned for a moment, and frowned: "The four major families?"

Fu Li chuckled: "You don't even know? If you're interested, it's better to send someone to Jinling to investigate. After all, the Zhen family is no different from a local emperor in Jinling, and the four big families are connected with each other. Compared with the Zhen family, people dare not offend them. I heard that the government in Jinling even has a list called the official protection talisman, which records many families, but these four families are also ranked first. If If you don't believe me, you might as well ask someone to inquire about it, and ask those businessmen who came to the capital from Jinling, have they ever heard that Jia is not fake, and white jade is used as a horse for Tang Jin? Have you ever heard of Afang Palace, three hundred There is no room for a history of Jinling, have you ever heard..."

"Enough!" Wei Yan interrupted Fu Li suddenly, and his whole person became gloomy.

Of course he knew that the four families of Jia Shi Wang Xue had a good relationship, but he only thought that the four families had such a good relationship because their ancestral home was in Jinling and they were relatives of each other by marriage, but he never thought that they had such a good relationship in Jinling. Biography.

There's even an official talisman!

Wei Yan raised his head and looked at Fu Li seriously: "Thanks to Mrs. Fu reminding me of this matter, otherwise, I am afraid that the court has not yet known about the so-called four major families, let alone this appalling official talisman."

Fu Li looked at Wei Yan and sighed, "I'm telling you this news for my own sake."

Wei Yan was stunned: "What do you mean by that?"

"You mentioned just now, the person who was robbed of the snuff bottle by Wang Zisheng and then died of anger..." Fu Li raised his head and looked into Wei Yan's eyes seriously, "He is my father."
