Chapter 187: The Concubine and the Sister-in-law
One of the four aristocratic marquis, Hongfu, since the founding of the Great Xia, has been standing, unlike other aristocratic marquis, which are gradually beginning to decline, but Hongfu is increasingly prosperous, and has grown from the end of the four aristocratic marquis, to the head of today's four aristocratic marquis, and there is a faint trend, and the founding marquis Qinghai marquis, on an equal footing.
On the one hand, Hongfu can maintain long-term prosperity, because Hongfu is full of talents.
Unlike the children of other noble princes, the children of Hongfu, both male and female, need to practice martial arts.
Men began to work as officials when they reached the age of fourteen, and women were arranged to marry other Bactrian nobles or important ministers.
Hongfu also secretly manipulated the underworld forces in the summer capital, which allowed the Hongfu to know the wind and grass in the summer capital at any time.
It can be seen that most of the successive marquis of Hongfu have a long-term vision, and they can accurately stand in the battle for the throne in the past dynasties.
And this Marquis of Hongfu is unanimously recognized that when Emperor Xia of Hongfu was still the prince, the Marquis of Hong strongly supported Emperor Xia to succeed to the throne, but this time, Hongfu looked away.
This is also something that Old Marquis Hong never expected.
Hong Fang hurriedly arrived at the courtyard where the old Marquis Hong was retreating.
Since the old Marquis Hong moved here ten years ago, he has never stepped out of this courtyard.
The grounds are small but very clean.
Inside and outside, there is only one separate bungalow.
At the entrance of the bungalows, there are a few straight Laoshan pines and a pebble road that winds its way to the wings.
After the old marquis Hong broke through the five realms of reincarnation, he was only one step away from the legendary supernatural realm, he only needed one meal a day, and only one old servant in the Hong Mansion went in and out to deliver food.
When the flood was released, Hong Shizi was already waiting in the courtyard.
When he saw Hong Fang, Hong Shizi secretly laughed in his heart, Hong Fang was dismissed from the position of the crown prince, and Hong Shizi was secretly happy.
Look at how he bullied him everywhere after he was released.
"Third brother, seeing that your face is not very good, could it be that you didn't sleep last night?" Hong Shizi asked knowingly.
"The eldest brother's face is not very good, I heard that this morning, the owner of the Shamen Gate was found on the street, what clues does the eldest brother have?"
The collusion between Liu Qing and Hong Fang, Hong Shizi was still kept in the dark, and he always thought that Liu Qing was his own person.
"It's just a dead minion, that Liu Qingcheng is not enough to lose, I have long wanted to abandon him. Hong Shizi held on.
"When is it, you two brothers are still arguing. ”
In the room, there was a heavy muffled hum, and the voice of the old marquis Hong made the two brothers suddenly quiet.
As long as there is a day when the old Marquis Hong is there, the two brothers will not dare to really tear their faces.
"Father. Hong Shizi and Hong Fang knelt on the ground together.
"I've only been in retreat for three months, the prince has been deposed, and the Shamen has been destroyed, what are you going to do? "Old Marquis Hong's anger made the entire courtyard feel like a small earthquake.
Old Marquis Hong stayed at home, but the major events in the entire summer capital seemed to be happening under his nose.
"Father, the children of Shamen are already a little brow-raising. Liu Qing was killed by a master design called Ghost Gate. Hong Shizi seemed to want to make up for his mistakes, and hurriedly said.
"Who is the master of the Ghost Gate?" asked Old Marquis Hong.
"The child hasn't investigated it yet. A few drops of sweat popped out of Hong Shizi's forehead.
"What is the origin of the ghost gate, and how many disciples do you need?" Old Man Hong's voice became even colder.
"The child doesn't know. "Hong Shizi was already covered in sweat.
He can't be blamed for this, the ghost door is haunted, even if he uses the power of Houfu, he hasn't found out why.
"Then don't go and investigate!" Hong Laohou was furious, Hong Shizi was so frightened that he hurriedly got up and hurriedly investigated.
Hong watched from the sidelines, and his heart palpitated secretly.
Don't look at Hong Shizi and Hong Fang, who are already in their thirties and forties, but the two of them are like children in front of Old Marquis Hong.
Even Hong Fang never really looked through his father.
After Hong Shizi left, the courtyard was outrageously quiet, the old marquis Hong did not speak, and Hong Fang did not dare to leave.
For a moment, the old Marquis Hong seemed to have settled down.
As soon as the wind blew, on the Laoshan pines, the pine needles that turned yellow in winter fell.
When the pine needles fell halfway, the needles suddenly changed direction, as if they were poured into an invisible Yuan force, and dozens of originally fragile and yellowing pine needles, like steel needles, radiated towards the flood.
Hong was shocked, and a reincarnation wind power floated under his feet, resisting the wind, his body fell backwards, and his body had retreated several feet.
The next moment, with a bend of his palm, a Yuan Force slashed at those pine needles.
The pine needles were cut into two pieces by Yuan Li.
Dozens of pine needles were divided into two, and the castration did not decrease at all, breaking through the Yuan Force of Hongfang.
"Father!" Hong Fang let out a stunned sound, a pine needle shot at his shoulder well, Hong Fang's face turned pale, and he snorted, the armor on his body had broken a hole.
"Hong Fang, you are very good at covering up, even I am almost blinded by you, when did you break through the second path of reincarnation?"
Beside him, the pine needles fell to the ground.
If he hadn't been tempted today, I'm afraid he would have always thought that Hong Fang would still be in reincarnation.
Hong Fang hugged his left shoulder and knelt on the ground, and his heart was also horrified.
He originally thought that after he broke through the second path of reincarnation, he would be able to block at least ten moves in front of Old Marquis Hong, but now it seems that he can't block even one move.
It is said that the martial artists of the reincarnation realm, every time they break through, the supernatural power of comprehending heaven and earth will increase by one point, and Hong Laohou, who has broken through the martial arts of reincarnation, has obviously reached the terrible point where picking leaves can kill people and crossing the river with one leaf.
"The child didn't dare to hide it, the child had just broken through recently, or thanks to the reincarnation pill that Mingyue brought back from the Sansheng Valley. Mingyue's cultivation broke through to the reincarnation realm, and she had already become a core disciple of the Three Lives Valley. Hong Fang's face was full of panic, and when he spoke, he cautiously looked at the face of the old marquis Hong.
When he heard his granddaughter Hong Mingyue, Old Marquis Hong's expression was slightly relaxed.
In the entire Hong Mansion, only Hong Mingyue is the biggest safety of the old Marquis Hong.
Hong Fang also grasped his father's point.
Mingyue's child really lived up to the old man's expectations. Hmph, it's a pity that she has a father who is not angry. Old Marquis Hong had a gloomy face.
"Father, child, ......" Hong Fang didn't finish speaking, and his shoulder tingled.
He was unconvinced, he also made a mistake, why was the eldest brother Hong Mu just reprimanded, but he was injured, and even more, if he was a step too late to avoid, the pine needles of the old marquis Hong had already killed him.
