In the northeast of Shenyang, in the majestic palace building, in the study of Naland, a thin old man waved his pen and wrote a poem left by a great man, "The soldiers who surrender without a fight, the good ones are also good." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ’

Just when Fang Jixuan, the housekeeper next to him, was about to make a big fuss, praising the Fang family's old master for his sharp penmanship, which was already at the master level, the thin old man suddenly felt a pain in his heart, his wrist shook, and the last word 'also' dragged out a long stream of ink, and there was a failure.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" Fang Jixuan's face was full of urgency, holding the shaking body of Fang Botao, the old master of the Fang family, and asked eagerly.

Fang Botao's face was pale, sweat was faint on his forehead, he had an old problem with angina, but he hadn't had an attack for a long time, and for some reason, it hurt very badly at this time.

With the support of the housekeeper, Fang Botao sat on the Taishi chair and took a sip of the hot tea handed by Fang Jixuan, feeling much better.

"Ji Xuan, I have a bad premonition that something might happen to the Fang family. The first time the old man's heartache attack was caused by the elopement between the unfilial girl and Meng Fan of the Meng family, every year when the pain attacks, there will be bad things happening, last year was also the second day of my heartache, the child of the third family was hit by a car and died. ”

Fang Jixuan really wanted to say that you are superstitious, now it is a new era and new thoughts, these old superstitions of achievement concepts are no longer exquisite, but he is afraid of saying the wrong thing, something really happened, this old man does not blame himself.

"Master, why don't I find you painkillers, or let's go get some rest."

"No need, I'll just sit here and rest, this Naland is very good at enjoying it, even the study is decorated elegantly and magnificently, but it's a pity that his vision is not as good as mine, if he learns from my vigorous and intelligent vision back then, he will not fall into the situation of a prisoner now."

Every time he thought of the decisions he made that changed the fate of the Fang family, Fang Botao felt proud.

Twenty-five years ago, the five major families coexisted, Fang Botao chose to attach himself to the Zhao family, and even in order to gain the trust of the Zhao family, he even ignored the happiness of his own daughter and forcibly broke up Fang Yiyun and Meng Fan's love.

It's just that he underestimated the mutual adherence of the couple who loved each other, Meng Fan ran away from the wedding night and rushed to the northeast overnight to elope with his daughter, which made Fang Botao vomit blood on the spot, and it was also at that time that he had angina.

However, Fang Botao was very wise, and immediately issued a chase and kill order, ordering the masters of the Fang family to hunt down and kill Meng Fan and his daughter, so as to show his heart, which was recognized by the Zhao family.

Otherwise, the third-rate family of his Fang family would have already been wiped out under the collapse of the major families in the Northeast

It was also from that time that the Fang family rose step by step, and in a few years it became the second largest family in the Northeast after the Nalan family.

This incident made Fang Botao very proud, he changed the fate of the Fang family, although he sacrificed his daughter, but he felt that it was worth it, girls are outgoing, sooner or later they are from other people's families, and the stormy Meng family is far less than the support of the Zhao family, the head of the five major families.

Although the Meng family has been standing in the capital under the suppression of the Zhao Qian family, Fang Botao has no regrets.

Until the appearance of Meng Qiuyu, Fang Yiyun had a reputation in the Meng family, the Zhao family lost power, the Lin family was defeated, the Qian family was also facing a crisis, and the Meng family rose strongly.

It's just that he once made trouble for the Meng family, and ruthlessly severed the relationship with Fang Yiyun, Fang Botao really didn't have the face to go to the Meng family to interrogate his relatives.

At this time, the Qi family moved from behind the scenes to the front of the stage, a strike plan against the Meng family and the Yang family was launched, and the Fang family got another opportunity.

Surrendering without a fight, this is Fang Botao's motto, and it is also the way he has been cultivating himself, peeking at its essence, and carefully researching it.

Sure enough, the Fang family did not have any losses, and only used a few tricks to calculate the Nalan family, become an upstart in the Northeast, and completely dominate the three northeastern provinces.

It's just that Meng Qiuyu recently returned to China in a high-profile manner, and released bold words to wash the two gangs, but in the end, the thunder was loud and the rain was small, although I heard that many people died, but Meng Qiuyu did not rush to kill them all, but instead incorporated these two gangs.

This made the Fang family worried, but also felt that the Meng family's qi was really exhausted, even the most difficult tiger to tame was much more docile, and what was there to fear.

If Meng Qiuyu dared to come to deal with the Fang family, he would not have waited so long, and he would not have let the people of the Nalan family be imprisoned for more than two months.

Moreover, Meng Qiuyu's biggest enemy now is the Qi family, and he will not spare time to come to the northeast to trouble the Fang family.

But at this time, Fang Botao's chest ached, and he inexplicably thought of this ruthless grandson in the rumored center, could it be that this kid really wanted to come to the Northeast to settle accounts with the Fang family?

Thinking of this, Fang Botao's face became solemn, he clutched his chest and gasped slightly, and said, "Ji Xuan, immediately notify Fang Tian, Fang Ming, Fang Liang and Wanyun, and immediately let them rush back to the Qi family, I want to hold a family meeting." ”

Fang Botao has three sons and two daughters, Fang Tian is the eldest son, followed by Fang Ming and Fang Liang, and Fang Wanyun is the daughter born to Fang Botao's third wife, for example, Fang Evian is nine years younger, and her mother is ** years older than Fang Evian, and she was just an adult when she became Fang Botao's woman.

When Fang Jixuan contacted the Fang family's children, a subordinate walked in quickly, looked at Fang Jixuanyu and reported: "Steward Fang, there is a courier company outside that has sent a wooden box, saying that it is a gift for the Fang family. ”

"Wooden boxes? Someone sent it. Fang Jixuan hung up the phone and asked with a puzzled expression.

Since the Fang family became the overlord of the Northeast, they have come to visit, and there is an endless stream of celebrities in the Northeast who give gifts to please him, and naturally there are people who have sent luxury gifts with ingenuity, but he has not yet received a gift in a wooden box.

"I don't know, the courier company said that someone asked someone to send it to the Fang family and let our eldest son sign for it." The next person reported truthfully.

"Well, I'll take a look." Fang Jixuan was puzzled, and rushed to the gate of the palace with his subordinates, and sure enough, he saw a car of a courier company parked outside the door, and a rectangular container was placed at the door, which was nailed to death with wooden planks outside.

"Fang Guan's family, I am Li Yao of Hongyu Express, this box is what we received today, let it be sent to your Fang Mansion, and ask Fang Guan's family to sign it and check the things."

The guy who took the lead in the courier company was very dedicated and said with a smile.

"Hongyu Express?" Fang Jixuan was stunned for a moment, vaguely familiar, but he forgot to hear it there.

"What's in this box?" Fang Jixuan glanced at the box arrogantly and asked.

"We don't know about this, we only care about logistics and distribution, as for what is inside, the guest will not disclose, and we will not ask." The courier guy laughed.

"Then carry it in, and wait for the eldest prince to come back and see what it is." Fang Jixuan waved his hand.

The two guys from the courier company helped the doorman of the Fang family carry the box into the yard, and then signed and left.

Fang Jixuan was about to leave, when the two guards wrinkled their noses and muttered, "What's in here?" It smells so bad. ”

"Hmmm! What the? What are you guys muttering? Fang Jixuan is also a good person, his ears are very good, and he can hear the whispers of the two of them clearly.

The two guards glanced at each other, and one of them spoke: "Steward Fang, when we were carrying the box just now, we smelled a foul smell and almost killed me." ”

As he spoke, the doorman also pointed to the doorman next to him and said, "I thought I was the only one who smelled it, and Ma San also smelled that disgusting smell, like the foul smell of rotting meat." ”

Fang Jixuan took a breath, then walked towards the wooden box, lowered his head and sucked it a few times, almost didn't make him vomit out disgustingly, it really smelled incomparable, but it was difficult to smell if he didn't get close.

"Damn, open it right now and see what's going on." Fang Jixuan took a few steps back and shouted angrily.

The guards of the Fang family who were guarding the courtyard around also gathered around, and several people took apart the wooden plank, revealing a black rectangular box inside, with an iron lock on it.

One of the guards brandished his sword and slashed through the lock, lifted the lid and took a look, his face turned pale in an instant, and he bent over and vomited.

The rest of the guards who came around also changed their faces drastically, and they stepped back one by one covering their noses.

Fang Jixuan's face was gloomy, he walked forward with his breath closed, took a look, his face turned gray in an instant, and his eyes widened and he was stunned on the spot.

"Young Master Yuntang, isn't this Young Master Yuntang? How did it become like this, oops, it's miserable. The surrounding guards began to talk and sigh one by one.

"You guys are optimistic about this place, I'll go in and report to the old man immediately." Fang Jixuan quickly came back to his senses and hurried to Qingning Palace to find Fang Botao.

"Master, it's not good, something is wrong." Before Fang Jixuanren came in, a mournful voice rang out.

"What's going on? Panic, what's going on? Fang Botao's chest tightened and didn't hurt, he was closing his eyes after drinking a cup of ginseng tea, and when he heard Fang Jixuan's exclamation, he opened his eyes with displeasure.

"Young Master Yuntang, Young Master Yuntang is dead, his whole body is covered with thick sores, and his body is rotting." Fang Jixuan said sadly.
