Brocade legend

Chapter 159

Honglian bowed to Lu Bing again and said: "My younger brother has been lacking in discipline since he was a child, and he doesn't study much. Please ask Mr. Wenfu to have a lot. I will definitely take him to the mansion someday. Xiang Wenfu and Mrs. Zun apologize!"

Lu Bing smiled and said: "My sister is too polite, since my sister said so, I just let him go."

When Xue Yang heard Lu Bing's words, he quickly untied Zhou Bin.

Zhou Bin walked up to Honglian dejectedly, and was about to speak, but Honglian slapped him across the face!

Zhou Bin covered his face and was stunned...

Hong Lian angrily scolded Zhou Bin: "What are you, you dare to be so domineering? Your sister and I are just a maid, and thanks to the grace of the emperor and the queen mother, I can have today's food and clothing, but you dare to be so ignorant! Wen Fu is An important minister of the imperial court, the emperor's milk brother, has just made great contributions to the imperial court! How can you belittle his wife! This time Wenfu is generous and spared your life. Hurry back home!"

This was the first time Zhou Bin saw his sister get angry, he was so frightened that he didn't dare to say anything, and nodded obediently.

"However, capital crimes can be avoided and life crimes cannot be escaped!" Hong Lian continued, turning to Lu Bing and saying, "Wenfu, my sister still wants to ask you to do me a favor, please punish him with thirty sticks, and then put this boy in prison for a few days." God, discipline this kid for me, let him reflect on himself!"

Lu Bing paused, hesitated and said, "I'm afraid this is not good?"

"What's the problem? He is my younger brother, and you are also my younger brother. Although you are the same age, you are a few months older than him. Therefore, you are his elder brother. There is nothing wrong with the elder brother disciplining the younger brother!" Hong Lian said seriously.

Seeing that Honglian was so serious, Lu Bing had no choice but to say: "Then it will be fine for a few days." Before Honglian could object, he said to Liang Xudong: "Take Zhou Qianhu to the cell and settle down properly."

Liang Xudong responded loudly, and asked the two Jinyi guards to take Zhou Bin, who was dejected and covering his face, down.

Chen Hong, who was quietly watching the changes, also breathed a sigh of relief.

Lu Bing turned around and said to Hong Lian: "Since sister Hong Lian is here, don't rush to leave. My younger brother will hold a banquet tonight, and I invite my sister to honor me."

Hong Lian thought for a while, then nodded and said: "That's fine, the Queen Mother still has a few instructions for me to tell you." After Hong Lian finished speaking, she turned to Chen Hong and said, "You also Come, the Queen Mother also has something to say to you."

Chen Hong listened, smiled slightly, and nodded in agreement.

Lu Bing turned around and said loudly: "I am the host today, and the brothers who come here count as one, and they all have to come!"

"Master Xie Zhenfu!" Jin Yiwei who was present saluted messily.

At this time, Luo An, Wang Zuo, and Chen Yin came, Luo An said to Lu Bing, "Wen Fu, the three of us will go back first."

"Why?" Lu Bingwan asked, "It's rare for us to get together, wouldn't it be nice to have a drink together?"

Luo An glanced at Hong Lian and Chen Hong, and said with a smile: "We three old guys will not participate in the activities of your young people. The three of us will go to your house to see your father. We old brothers sit together and chat It’s also a pleasure, and besides... I see that Miss Honglian has something to say to you, so you can spend good time with Miss Honglian today!"

After hearing Luo An's words, Lu Bing couldn't persuade him to stay any longer.

Hong Lian wished all three elders a blessing, Luo An and the others smiled back and left.

Hong Lian, Luo An and the other three were old acquaintances, and when they were in Xing Wang's mansion, Luo An and the others had official status, which was much higher than Hong Lian's status. Although it is different now, Luo An and the others Someone called Honglian a girl, and Honglian didn't feel dissatisfied in the slightest.

That night, Lu Bing booked the entire Hongyan Building and held a grand banquet, while he, Hong Lian and Chen Hong entered a private room alone.

After toasting Honglian with a glass of wine, Lu Bing said, "I don't know what the queen mother's intention is?"

Hong Lian glanced at Chen Hong and said, "The Empress Dowager really has something to say to you two..."

Before Honglian came to the world, what the Queen Mother said was repeated in detail.

After hearing this, Chen Hong acted as if nothing had happened on the surface, but felt a little dissatisfied in his heart.

How could Honglian and Chen Hong's husband and wife not know Chen Hong's disposition?

Honglian sighed, and said: "I have also heard about the matter between the two of you, but since the emperor and the empress dowager want you to cooperate sincerely, why don't you take advantage of my presence today, and you all Let's talk about it!"

After hearing this, Lu Bing said bluntly: "Since my sister said so, I really have a question to ask Governor Chen. One of my brothers was attacked yesterday, and his life and death are still unknown, but Governor Chen's subordinates Move your hand?"

Chen Hong picked up a glass of wine and said, "I didn't do anything, but I don't know if my subordinates will clean up the house on their own initiative."

Upon hearing this, Lu Bing knew that Chen Hong had admitted it, and frowned.

However, Chen Hong continued: "No matter what, I owe you a favor. I, Chen Hong, have never liked to owe others, so I will pay you one today."

"Oh? I don't know how Governor Chen will pay it back?" Lu Bing sneered.

"Master Lu, do you know the meaning behind His Majesty's words yesterday?" Chen Hong also sneered.

"Oh, I probably guessed it." Lu Bingyi said with a smile.

"Oh, really?" Chen Hong didn't believe it, and said, "Then we might as well learn from Zhuge Liang and Zhou Yu, write a few words each, and see if our guesses are the same?"

"Okay!" Lu Bing dipped his chopsticks in some wine and wrote a few words on the table.Chen Hong also imitated him and wrote a few words in the same way. The two of them covered it with their hands and said at the same time: "Open it?"

The two raised their hands together, only to see that Lu Bing had written three characters and Chen Hong had written two characters.

They are "Zhang Fujing" and "Zhang Cong".

The two couldn't help but smile at the same time.

Chen Hong smiled and said: "I never thought Master Lu would have a thorough understanding of the situation in the capital just two days after he returned to Beijing! It's really amazing!"

"There, the only person who can be more important than you at this time is Mr. Shoufu!" Lu Bing hid his wit.

Chen Hong didn't mind after hearing this, and said, "Master Fang seems to have looked for you yesterday. I didn't expect Wen Fu to get mixed up with Fang Xianfu so soon."

"The spies from the East Factory really did their duty!" Lu Bing sneered and said, "My lord is meeting friends brightly, so do you want to report to the governor?"

Hearing that the two didn't say a word, Hong Lian became tit for tat again, and quickly interjected: "Since you already have a tacit understanding, how do you plan to help the emperor relieve his worries?"

"It depends on whether Governor Chen will cooperate with my investigation." Lu Bing sneered.

"It's easy to talk about cooperation, but I don't know if Mr. Lu has such a great ability to do it." Chen Hong did not give in.

"Don't bother Governor Chen, I have my own way." Lu Bing picked up a glass of wine and drank it down in one gulp!
