Han Fei and Zhang Liang walked forward.
"Fourth Brother, Beauty Hu, what a coincidence.”Han Fei smiled.
"Oh, Ninth Young Lord, you're here to watch the show too." Beauty Hu's lips curled up slightly.”
Han Fei said politely," I was bored, so I came here with Zifang. The one next to me…must be Mrs. Hu that the beauty mentioned before?"”
Beauty Hu smiled lightly." Ninth Young Master, you're too kind. She's BenGong's elder sister."”
Madam Hu bowed slightly.
Zhang Liang, who was behind them, also greeted them.
Han Yu looked at Zhang Liang and said gently,"The Zhang family is indeed full of talents. I heard that a few days ago, it was you and my ninth brother who solved the military pay case."”
"Fourth Young Master is exaggerating. This time, it's Ninth Young Master who saved the Zhang Clan from the fire and water."”
Han Yu smiled and said," Old Jiu, you're amazing. You've used the opportunity of solving a case to recruit a first-class talent the moment you came back. You're too fast!"”
Han Fei said calmly, Fourth Brother, you're wrong. I treat Zifang as a friend. Why would I recruit her?”
"Haha, I used the wrong words." "Since that's the case, I'll borrow Zi Fang. Otherwise, it'll be very boring to watch the show alone tonight."”
Han Fei sneered in his heart and said calmly,""Fourth brother is wrong again. Zifang is not a commodity, how can I borrow it?”
"Hey, look at me!" Han Yu slapped his forehead and turned to Zhang Liang.""Zifang, don't mind me. I'm a rough person, not as talented as ninth brother. I wonder if I can invite Zifang to watch it together?”
Zhang Liang hesitated for a moment and nodded slightly,""I dare not disobey."
After that, Han Yu brought along the depressed Zhang Liang and left after bidding farewell to Beauty Hu.
Han Fei was speechless. This guy was really weird. Not long ago, he was so attentive to women, but when he saw Zhang Liang, he abandoned him directly. It seemed that talents were more important to him, but he was too impatient.
"The Ninth Young Master is truly pitiful. His only companion was actually snatched away by the Fourth Young Master.”Beauty Hu smiled sweetly.
Han Fei said slowly," Companions. If one is missing, there are others. For example, there is a suitable candidate in front of us.”
"If Ninth Young Master takes a fancy to any of them, BenGong will make the decision to let them accompany you.”Beauty Hu smiled.
Han Fei shook his head.”
Beauty Hu was surprised, but she soon teased,"The Ninth Young Master's image of a flower is indeed true. This Queen doesn't care, but aren't you afraid that the King will find out?”
Han Fei teased, Even Beauty Hu is not afraid. How can I be timid?”
When Beauty Hu heard this, she felt that his words had a double meaning. Could it be that he had discovered something…Thinking of this, her heart instantly palpitated.
Just when she didn't know what to say, Han Fei said cheerfully,""Beauty Hu, don't blame me. I was just joking.”
Beauty Hu looked at him deeply and pretended to be coquettish,""You can't joke about this."
Han Fei smiled and then said seriously, Beauty Hu, I have something to talk to you and your sister about.”
Beauty Hu frowned. She wanted to refuse, but she was worried that Han Fei really knew about her. If she made him unhappy and told the King, she would be dead, and even her sister might be implicated.
"Older Sister has never been good at socializing with others. If Young Master has something to say, then say it to BenGong.”Beauty Hu said.
Han Fei thought for a moment. Anyway, the two sisters should know more or less, so he agreed.
Then, Beauty Hu gave Madam Hu a reassuring look and ordered the palace maid to bring her to watch the show.
After they left, Han Fei took Beauty Hu to a quiet place.
"Young Master, can you speak now?"
Han Fei sorted out his words." This question may touch on your sad past. I apologize in advance."”
"Then, he continued," What happened before and after the massacre at Fiery Rain Manor, and how did you and your sister escape?”
When Beauty Hu heard this, her expression became a little sad,"Do I have to know?"
Han Fei couldn't bear it, but for the sake of the jade and the treasure, he could only say,""Please tell me!"
Beauty Hu let out a long sigh." I won't hide it from you. My sister and I aren't very clear about that matter. We only remember that Li Kai and Liu Yi suddenly came with an army. They said that they were on the way to quell the rebellion and planned to rest in the manor for a few days.”
" After that, my father agreed. The night after they left, a nightmare came to my house…"
Beauty Hu couldn't help but shed tears as she recalled this," There are more than ten men in black with extraordinary strength. They…kill anyone they see. Father knew that it was difficult to resist, so he asked the two uncles to protect me and my sister…"
" Even so, there was still a man in black chasing after us…In the end, the two uncles died together with that man…My sister and I were afraid, so we hid among the refugees and followed the flow to Xinzheng…"
Han Fei frowned. Why did your sister marry Liu Yi?”
" Back then, we found out that our clan had been exterminated, and that some evildoers had even set fire to it…" Beauty Hu said bitterly." Perhaps it was fate. We were homeless and coincidentally met Liu Yi, who had returned triumphantly. When he was at Fiery Rain Manor, he had expressed his love to his sister, but he was rejected. When they met again, even if his sister did not like him, he could only submit.”
"As for me, although I was quite pretty, Liu Yi did not intend to marry me. In addition, your father happened to take in a concubine, so he offered me up.”
"Originally, this result was already a pity from the heavens. However, no one expected that on the day before my sister was about to get married, Liu Yi would inexplicably die a tragic death in the Cold Palace. At that time, your father was worried that rumors would spread, so he suppressed the matter and announced that he was assassinated by the remnants of the Yue.”
After listening carefully, Han Fei couldn't help but sigh at the twists and turns in their lives. Fortunately, Liu Yi was dead. Otherwise, Mrs. Hu might have to serve her father's murderer for many years.
"Since Liu Yi is dead and your sister is not married, why is she living in the Liu residence and being called Madam Hu?”Han Fei was a little puzzled.
Beauty Hu sighed." After Liu Yi died, I advised my sister to marry into a good family. However, she said that this person had done a great favor to us sisters. Moreover, since she had already promised to marry him, even if she was gone, she would never let him down. Therefore, her sister called herself Liu Yi's wife and took care of Liu Yi's old mother in the Liu residence.”
" Your sister is really admirable…" Han Fei admired this kind Mrs. Hu from the bottom of his heart. He even began to hesitate whether he should tell them the truth…
"Thank you for your praise, Young Master. If there's nothing else…BenGong will go back first.”Beauty Hu said in a low voice.
Han Fei still had a few more questions to ask, because although Beauty Hu had said a lot, it had nothing to do with the treasure or the jade, but seeing her dejected look, he really couldn't bear to ask her.
"Thank you for telling me. I apologize again.”
Beauty Hu wiped the corner of her eyes and smiled,"Actually, I should be the one thanking you. I've been keeping this matter to myself all these years. Now that I've said it out loud, I suddenly feel much more relaxed.”
"That's good."
Beauty Hu had just walked a short distance when she stopped and turned around,"Right, let me remind Young Master that your fourth brother is very shrewd. You must be careful of him!”
Han Fei said disdainfully, Him? If he wasn't so anxious to drive a wedge between me and Zifang, if he didn't directly throw Beauty to the side because of Zifang, perhaps I would have thought more highly of him.”
Beauty Hu's beautiful eyes lit up." It seems like I've been worrying too much. Only a small fry like me would take him seriously."”
Han Fei said, As long as Beauty Hu doesn't think I'm arrogant!”
"How could that be?" Beauty Hu shook her head and smiled charmingly,"A confident man is very attractive.”
After she left, Han Fei sat by the lotus pond and pondered quietly. Although he admired Mrs. Hu very much, it was impossible for her to stop his investigation.
The reason why he didn't ask further was because he couldn't bear to do so, but there were other reasons. Firstly, Beauty Hu might not tell her about the secret place. Secondly, she might not know as much as Madam Hu. After all, the latter was the closest to Liu Yi before and after his death.
" Then, I'll be a thief again tonight…" Han Fei made a decision.
After the Wushan Meeting, Han Fei wanted to get a set of night clothes with Zhang Liang, but Han Yu didn't intend to let him go. He said that they had a good talk and sent him back to his mansion to express his gratitude. Han Fei couldn't help but leave alone.
Zhang Liang sat in the carriage and replied to Han Yu with every sentence. He felt very helpless. The other party had been beating around the bush the entire night, wanting him to work for him.
"Zifang, your grandfather, the Prime Minister, has always been loyal to my father. Although you are young, you will definitely be a pillar of the country in the future.”
Zhang Liang nodded." Fourth Young Master, you flatter me. Brother Han is both a teacher and a friend. I have benefited greatly in a short period of time."”
Han Yu smiled and said," Our Ninth Brother is knowledgeable and talented, but he has always liked to have fun. Fortunately, he has done something serious after he came back. It really makes me feel gratified.”
"However, he has been studying abroad all year round, so he doesn't know much about the country. It's very likely that he has offended someone unknowingly when he comes back. You have to be careful when you follow him.”
Thank you for your reminder, Fourth Young Master." Zhang Liang cupped his hands.
" Yes." Han Yu nodded." If there's anything you can't solve or something dangerous, you can come to me at any time. As long as I can help, I'll do my best."”
"I will remember this."
At this moment, a huge army suddenly passed by in the distance. Everyone in the army had a murderous aura, as if they were saying that strangers should not approach…
"Do you know this team?" Han Yu asked calmly.”
"The army of the Snow Garment Castle." Zhang Liang immediately replied.”
"Zifang really knows a lot." Han Yu praised, then said solemnly,"The Marquis of Pure Blood Robes hasn't returned to Xin Zheng for two years. This time, he suddenly came back and brought back many people who have been stationed outside.”
Zhang Liang was silent. He suspected that Bai Yifei's return was probably to target Zi Lanxuan...
"Detour to the Prime Minister's Mansion first." Han Yu said to his subordinate, and the carriage sped away.
