Chapter 52: He Fu
Walking on the streets of Beisha City, Long Yuan was still digesting the news he got from the killer.
To be honest, Long Yuan was very surprised that he had an inexplicable enemy, he believed in the spies planted by many forces in the Xun Mansion, so Xun Fanyang's attitude towards him should have already reached the ears of these forces, which should be able to help him clear his suspicions.
"Baoshan. ”
Long Yuan silently recited this name, and he already remembered the unmasked scarf scribe in his heart.
Baoshan, a scarf scribe in the deep house, shuddered for no reason, and his heart was covered with a lingering shadow.
"Kuroko, haven't they come back yet?"
Baoshan asked the little guy beside him.
The little guy who was asked thought for a moment, shook his head, and said that the two who went to kill Long Yuan had not returned.
"It shouldn't be, usually these two people are very nimble, not to mention that this time they are just going to kill a little ghost, why is it delayed for so long?"
Baoshan was a little puzzled.
......
"Steward Tian really can't stand you, my two brothers have an old mother to support, and a wife and children at home, although He Fu is good to my two brothers, but they don't pay for two consecutive months, and the family really can't open the pot. ”
In front of the gate of a house, two young men wearing blue-gray cloth clothes with burdens said to an old man who was slightly rickety.
"Hey, I don't blame you, I don't blame you, I came out to support my family, and I believe Master He won't blame you either. ”
The old man, known as Steward Tian, comforted the two young men, but his age-spotted face was full of bitterness.
"Steward Natian said goodbye. ”
The two young men glanced at each other, gritted their teeth and said goodbye to Steward Tian.
"Well, go, go, I hope you can have a good life in the future. ”
Although Steward Tian was very reluctant, he still sent his blessings.
Seeing the two young people leaving and disappearing into the sea of people, Tian Guan sighed and turned around and walked towards the house.
Suddenly, his peripheral vision swept to a figure, and he felt as if this person was looking at him, and he stopped and looked at it.
I saw a young man dressed in a long robe embroidered with auspicious clouds and green clothes met the eyes of Steward Tian.
The young man stood there expressionlessly, his posture was quite slender, his skin was healthy and healthy, his sword eyebrows were slightly raised, his thin lips were pursed, a pair of dark starry eyes flashed from time to time, and the pedestrians on the side of the road frequently paused to cast amazed glances at the young man, and there were even more big girls and little daughters-in-law who blushed because they looked at them twice.
This young man was naturally Long Yuan, and since he came out of the inn, he had been wandering around Beisha City until he was attracted by the Qi of Heavenly Destiny of He Mansion.
Long Yuan knew very well in his heart that although the big family was good, it was not easy to get the approval of everyone in the family, after all, there were too many vested interests involved.
The second is that the size of these families has basically come to an end, and it is difficult to go further, which means that the Heavenly Dao fragments contained in their Heavenly Destiny Qi have been solidified, and the Heavenly Dao fragments that Long Yuan can obtain from them are limited, and this situation is a bit similar to that when he was in the Village of No Return.
So Long Yuan's target was those small families, so that he could have the opportunity to participate in the management of this family. There may not be any benefits for Long Yuan in the early stage, but once this family develops and grows under Long Yuan's management, the benefits that Long Yuan will get are also immeasurable.
Of course, not all small families can become Long Yuan's target, what he wants to see is the characteristics or temperament of this family.
Just like this He Mansion, under the mediation of Long Yuan, the Qi of Heavenly Destiny condensed in the sky above He Mansion was very weak and dim, like a residual candle swaying in the wind, which would be extinguished at any time.
But Long Yuan felt firmness and unyielding from this aura of destiny, and it seemed that no matter what difficulties could extinguish it, this was the family trait that Long Yuan was looking for.
"What a handsome boy!"
Steward Tian and Long Yuan looked at each other, and Steward Tian couldn't help but praise in his heart.
Although he was puzzled by Long Yuan's strange behavior, he nodded to Long Yuan kindly, before turning around and stepping into the gate, and then struggling to close the door.
"It's up to you!"
Long Yuan observed for a while, looked at the plaque of He Mansion, and made a decision in his heart.
The time passed to three o'clock, the sky was getting late, the moon hung high branches, and the late autumn night was particularly cold.
Crunch –
"Huh?"
Long Yuan, who had been hiding in the dark to observe Hefu, heard movement in Hefu when his ears moved.
"Steward Tian?"
Long Yuan saw a black shadow stuffed in his arms, this person was the old man Tian Steward who had a relationship with Long Yuan at noon.
"What is he going to do?"
Seeing Steward Tian walking towards the area where the common people lived, Long Yuan quietly walked behind him, and he was very puzzled in his heart.
After following Steward Tian for half an hour, he stopped in a small courtyard on the edge of the city, watching Steward Tian enter the house, Long Yuan jumped lightly to the roof and listened to the sound in the house.
"Feng'er, come and eat it while it's hot. ”
Steward Tian's loving and concerned voice came from inside the house.
"Wow, grandpa, and fish!"
A child's voice said with excitement.
"Could it be that he can't steal from prison?"
Long Yuan speculated in his heart, but he didn't feel that Steward Tian was that kind of person.
"Well, this is what Master He specially asked me to give you this little gluttonous cat. ”
Steward Tian explained with a smile.
"Master He is really a good man. ”
"Then you still need to say, okay, hurry up and eat, grandpa is old and his legs are not flexible, and the food is cold when he walks here. ”
Steward Tian said with a sigh of embarrassment.
Listening to the conversation between the grandfather and grandson, Long Yuan, who was lying on the roof, was a little sad for a while, and he remembered Fu Bo and Yu Lao, who died tragically.
After that, Long Yuan saw Steward Tian hurrying back to He's Mansion, and Steward Tian kept stroking his chest along the way.
In the next few days, Long Yuan saw Steward Tian come back with leftovers to eat for his grandson, and it could be seen that Steward Tian loved his grandson very much, and it also proved that the current situation in He Fu was not optimistic.
On the fifth day of following Steward Tian, Long Yuan finally planned to act.
Squeak –
Steward Tian pushed the door into the house.
"It's you!"
Steward Tian found that there was one more person in the house besides his grandson.
"Hehe, Steward Tian, we'll meet again. ”
Long Yuan smiled and greeted Steward Tian.
"What are you going to do?"
But Long Yuan and Xi's smiles fell in the eyes of Steward Tian, but they made him feel cold in his heart.
Because his grandson, who was waiting for his return in the past, is now lying on the bed with his eyes closed, and this strange teenager is sitting at the head of the bed caressing his grandson's little face.
"Steward Tian doesn't need to be nervous, I just want Steward Tian to do me a favor. ”
Long Yuan's hand unconsciously slid to the child's neck.
"What's the matter?"
Glancing at Long Yuan's hand, Steward Tian took a deep breath and asked in a deep voice pretending to be calm.
"It's not a big deal, I just hope that Steward Tian will take the blame and resign and leave Hefu, and introduce me to become the housekeeper of Hefu. ”
Long Yuan smiled and said his intentions.
"What do you want to do?"
Steward Tian's heart suddenly burst into shape, and he asked with a fierce face.
"Steward Tian don't need to be nervous, I believe you know better than me about the current situation of He Fu, and there is nothing worth me trying to figure out. ”
Long Yuan shook his head disdainfully and said.
"Then why are you ......?"
Steward Tian knew that Long Yuan was telling the truth, but he didn't understand it even more in his heart.
"This doesn't bother the steward of Lao Tian, you just need to know that I have no ill will towards He Fu. ”
Long Yuan said indifferently.
Quietly looking at Steward Tian who was struggling with his eyes, Long Yuan was not in a hurry, and the hut fell into silence.
