Concubine Sheng Chong

Chapter 165 I Was Confused About This Matter
Qing Hong pursed her lips and smiled, "Your brother-in-law is probably going to join forces with King Duan this time to take down the Chengnan casino of the Wang family."

Fang Lijin frowned, "Oh? Are you serious?"

Qinghong took a sip of Qiu Lubai in her cup, and said with a charming smile, "You still don't believe my tricks?"

Fang Lijin slowly put down the cup in his hand, "It doesn't take much effort now."

If he didn't do anything, wouldn't it be impossible to hold him accountable?It's easy for the Wang family to get involved, even more convenient than what Jin Yan said!

Seeing his happy face, Qinghong curled her lips and said angrily: "Why didn't you take the trouble?! If I don't have ten jars of good wine, I won't follow."

Fang Lijin smiled heartily, "Miss Qinghong's request is very easy to handle, today's ten jars of Qiulubai will definitely be delivered."

After leaving the teahouse, Fang Lijin wandered the streets and alleys for a long time, and finally entered an unremarkable house.

The woman in the green shirt inside was standing under the corridor wearing a fox fur cloak, and she stretched out her fingers from time to time to order the women to sweep the snow in the yard.

When she saw Fang Lijin, she nodded slightly and saluted, and said with a smile, "Why is Second Young Master Fang here?"

Fang Lijin glanced at her, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect it to be so soon... You have become the most important person in Mr. Wang's heart..."

The beauty of this courtyard is that the entrance is inconspicuous, but the inside is decorated with carved beams and painted buildings, gorgeous and extraordinary.

It's very dignified to be surrounded by powerful officials.

The woman pursed her lips and smiled, her eyes filled with coquettishness, "Little girl, how dare you forget the kindness of the second young master Fang."

Fang Lijin nodded casually, "Find a place to talk and discuss things."

The woman suppressed her smile, stretched out her hand as a gesture of invitation, "Second Young Master Fang, please."

After Fang Lijin came out of Chengfufang, he walked leisurely towards the General's Mansion. Who would have thought that as soon as he turned a street, he saw a lot of clerks surrounding the gate of the General's Mansion!

He frowned, and stepped forward quickly to hear the movement inside.

Fang Yanjing stood at the door and insisted on waiting for the Holy Majesty's order, "You dare to come to the General's Mansion to search for people without the imperial order?!"

Fang Lijin heard the searchers rushing in, "Father! What's the matter?"

"Father, let me go to the Ministry of War."

Fang Yanjing's face was extremely pale, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Fang Licheng's voice behind him.

Fang Lijin frowned in puzzlement, but the clerk at the side was steadfast, "Master Fang, the subordinate officials are also following orders! If it really comes down to seeing the imperial decree, I'm afraid this matter will be difficult to handle."

"What's the matter at the door?" Kang Jinyin was carrying the thrush cage to the front yard to find a servant to repair the cage, but he heard a loud noise at the door.

Seeing Fang Licheng walking towards the door with extremely steady steps, she hurriedly stuffed the birdcage in her hand into the servant girl's hand, and then quickly followed.

"Father, what is going on?!"

Looking at the tense atmosphere at the door, Fang Lijin felt a headache.

The yamen servant snorted, "Fang Shizi asked for fate food, but he made a military order in black and white. Now that the food and grass have been robbed, who can afford such a major matter?! I also hope that Fang Houye will not embarrass him and let Fang Shizi go down with him." Let's go, officer."

Fang Lijin paused in his heart, something went wrong with the food? !
Then what kind of battle is Xu Junyan fighting there? !
"Brother! What's going on?! How could it be possible to lose food and grass?"

Fang Licheng's eyes darkened, "When I arrived outside Xiangdu City, I handed over the food and grass to my lieutenant general..."

"Brother! The military order is like a mountain! How can you..."

"Licheng! You can't go!"

Before Fang Lijin finished speaking, Mrs. Li hurried to the door and grabbed Fang Licheng who was about to leave.

The yamen servant hurriedly said: "Master Hou... I hope you don't make it difficult for me to dismiss you!"

Fang Licheng nodded towards Fang Yanjing, "Father, it was the son's fault, so the son should bear it all..."

Fang Yanjing flicked his sleeves, "How could it be! How could it be like this..."

Mrs. Li cried uncontrollably, "No..."

Violating military orders, how should this be severely punished? !
Looking at Fang Licheng who was resolutely taken away by the Yacha, Kang Jinyin bit his lip hard.

He is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, this kind of thing is not uncommon in aristocratic families.

If you want to escape the guilt, it's very easy, you just need to push a respectable person out to face it.

Seeing that figure go with the Yacha, she felt respect in her heart.

Such a person deserves my respect...

Half an hour later, in the flower hall, Fang Zhengyuan and Mrs. Fang sat at the head without saying a word.

Li shi lowered her head and kept wiping away her tears, while Fang Yanjing on the side kept sighing.

Mrs. Fang said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty will definitely not punish Licheng severely. Licheng is now engaged to a girl from the Kang family... Your Majesty must be wary of this."

But Li raised her head with sobs, "Mother... my daughter-in-law is just afraid... afraid that the Wang family will cause trouble! If something happens to Licheng... I'm the only one..."

"Stop making trouble! What can happen to Licheng?!"

Seeing that Mrs. Li was about to say something wrong again, Fang Yanjing's expression darkened a bit.

Fang Lijin, who was silent at the side, lowered his eyes and said nothing, only hummed inaudibly.

Just such a son?
This... I don't need to listen to it to know it.

Li's fear of him has never been taken lightly.

Because of Li's crying, it was Fang Yanjing who stood up first, "Our Fang family also sent people to Xiangdu, and I will go to the Ministry of War to find out what's going on."

At Xu time, the General's Mansion was in chaos, and Li's cries all the way from the main courtyard of the upper house to Fang Licheng's courtyard.

"Master! You just have the heart to see our son being beaten up like this?! You don't love Licheng, but Licheng is my concubine's life!"

Fang Yanjing's complexion was extremely bad, and after hearing this, he shouted: "He violated the military order! If it wasn't for the marriage with Duke Hui's mansion that made the Holy One fearful, he would have lost his life because of it!"

Mrs. Li was stunned for a moment, stomped her feet, wiped her tears, turned and entered the inner room.

Fang Licheng fell down on the couch with a pale face after receiving the eighty army sticks.

Mrs. Li took one look and couldn't bear to look again, and ordered the servant girl to take good care of her, and cried for a while before reluctantly leaving.

Fang Licheng waved his hand, "Let's all go down."

Soon the room fell silent.

Fang Licheng saw someone come in with the curtain lifted, closed his eyes and said, "You don't have to come in if you have nothing to do."

Kang Jinyin hesitated for a moment, and finally whispered outside the screen: "Fang Shizi, I'm here to discuss something with you."

Fang Licheng was startled when he saw an unfamiliar voice, "Who is it?!"

"Kang's golden tone."

Fang Licheng was silent for a moment, "Princess, this engagement..."

"Don't...you listen to me."

Kang Jinyin paused, and then said: "The military order you violated this time is not easy to escape... If you don't have this marriage contract, you must not be able to explain it."

Fang Licheng frowned, "Miss Kang, I will naturally take care of this..."

Kang Jinyin interrupted him, "Aren't you clear about your Fang family's situation?! The engagement has already been made, and the geng post has been changed. If you want to withdraw, what's the difference between early and late withdrawal? If it works This marriage contract will help you, isn't it killing two birds with one stone?"

Fang Licheng clenched his fists, "Miss Kang... Fang..."

How could he use a woman so despicably to mitigate his guilt? !
"Needless to say, I'm just here to tell you. If you can resist this by yourself, in my eyes, you are the one worthy of my help."

After saying this, Kang Jinyin pursed her lips, turned around and left.

She bumped into Fang Lijin outside the door, she stopped, smiled and said, "Master Fang, that thrush of yours is very interesting."

Fang Lijin looked at her slender but extremely firm steps, and smiled.

If this little princess becomes the mistress of the Fang family, it must be the best choice.

What's more, she must be interested in her elder brother.

Entering the inner room, Fang Lijin saw that Fang Licheng was still downcast in thought.

After asking about his injury, Fang Lijin said, "Brother, this time...how will the Ministry of War handle this matter? What about the matter of food and grass?"

Only then did Fang Licheng come to his senses, "I'm afraid the Wang family has also intervened. I only know that the grain needs to be transferred from the nearest granary, but this order has to be dispatched urgently by the Ministry of Household Affairs."

Fang Lijin ruthlessly dispatched the desk, "Bastard! The military situation on the front line is so urgent! These villains are still thinking about intrigue!"

Fang Licheng lowered his eyes, "This is because I feel sorry for Zhen Guohou..."

"I'm going outside to find out the news!"

Fang Lijin thought of Yutong's pawn shop, and hurriedly got up to leave.

"Second brother, I was confused about this matter... I won't do it again in the future."

These words were extremely low, revealing helplessness.

Fang Lijin understood that his elder brother decided to suppress his inner feelings.

There is no other way.

"Brother, take care, because of the relationship with Duke Hui's mansion, you will not be influenced by the Wang family... The princess also said that she will help you, and you have received this kindness..."

With that said, Fang Lijin turned around and left the inner room.

"Miss! Miss!"

Jiang Jinyan was tasting the newly made dim sum with Xueyan, when Xu's mother hurried into the ear room.

"Miss! I heard something happened to Xiangdu..."

The plum blossom cake in Jiang Jinyan's hand fell to the ground, she got up and said in a daze, "What's the matter?"

Mother Xu said urgently: "I heard from Guanshi Jiang that the people transporting grain were intercepted outside the city of Xiangdu! The grain and grass are nowhere to be found!"

Jiang Jinyan's heart tightened.

How can this be so? !
Xu's mother said again: "This time the person who brought people to transport food is the elder son of Miss's family. He went to the Ministry of War yesterday. I heard that he was punished with military sticks...and carried back to Fang's mansion!"

Xueyan on the side was also anxious, "Isn't the Marquis of Zhen Guo still fighting in Xiangdu? There is no food, this..."

She covered her mouth.

Jiang Jinyan hurriedly said, "Go and invite Steward Jiang over here."

Mother Xu paused, "Guard Jiang was summoned to the front hall by the master, it seems that there is something urgent!"

Jiang Jinyan forced himself to calm down.

Yes, now the Ministry of Household Affairs and the Ministry of War must come up with a solution!

Xu Junyan, how could he...

She shook her head, turned around and hurried out of the ear room.

It wasn't until she returned to the house and saw the green grass still green in the orchid pot that she seemed to have settled down.

By the way, we should go to Fang Lijin for this matter, he must know the inside story!
"Yu Mo, send a boy to the General's Mansion to find Second Young Master Fang, and tell me that I have something to discuss."
