Chapter 1: Beauty
"My son will never be a male pet." A thunderous roar filled the courtyard, and the maids, servants, guards, masters, and so on, under the wrath of their masters, those who could hide were long gone.
Only those who couldn't hide or didn't dare to hide had to stand in front of Fu Zhuo, the head of the Fu family, who was full of anger, and bear this shocking anger with a wry smile.
"Lord Wang, my Fu family has done their best for the country for several generations, and how many sons have fought bloody battles, and the country's reward for us is to send the men of my Fu family to be male pets?" Fu Zhuo's eyes were full of blazing anger, and his face was full of hideous anger,
Xiang Wang Chitose, who is under Liang Guo and above 10,000 people, has a face that is about to turn into bitter melon. It's a pity, how did this kind of drudgery fall on his head.
It's not a big deal to find a beautiful man to dedicate to Shangbang, but why was it chosen, but it was Fu Qinglin of the Fu family.
The Fu family is one of the three major families of the Liang Kingdom, and the sons and daughters of the past generations represent one of the largest forces in the court. Even King Liang has to be more tolerant of the Fu family and often show favor.
The Fu family has always produced many talents, and Fu Qinglin is one of the outstanding ones. When I heard that as soon as he was born, the husband who told his fortune said that his future was great and unlimited. When he grabbed Zhou, he actually grabbed a book in one hand and a knife in the other, and everyone praised him for being a civil and military all-rounder in the future. At the age of five, he was already clear and handsome, like a beautiful jade. When he was six years old, he was strategic, his back was like flowing water, he was familiar with four books and five classics, he was familiar with it, he could hold a knife, he practiced riding and shooting, and the world was different. When he was eight years old, he dared to ride a pony and go out of the battlefield with his grandfather. And he lived up to his family's high expectations. At the age of fifteen, he was born in a scientific examination, and he did an article freely, and it is said that it was because he wanted the Fu family to avoid suspicion, and in the end, he only ordered him to explore the flowers. However, the male son of the Fu family did not take the imperial examination for his background, but only to prove his ability, so Fu Qinglin's final choice was not the Hanlin Academy but the battlefield. At the age of sixteen, he made meritorious contributions in the army, and his prestige was raised before the battle, and it was widely talked about throughout the country.
When he crossed the horse and wore red, and returned in brocade clothes, the whole city was full of sensations to see Fu Lang, how many girls and beautiful women, and threw the sachet and scarf at him. This bustling and prosperous area alarmed the envoys sent by the Jin State, the suzerain of Shangbang.
When the envoy returned to China and talked about the current situation of the Liang Kingdom, he couldn't help but talk about the demeanor of the young Fu Lang, and the King of Jin heard the words and longed for it, so a very polite private letter inviting Fu Jiaerlang to go to the Jin Kingdom for a long time as a guest quietly reached the hands of the King of Liang.
King Liang has one head and two big, and summons all the ministers to discuss privately at night. King Jin is lewd and lustful, everyone knows it, the so-called long-term stay, what mystery is hidden in it, everyone knows. If it was the ordinary people that the king fancied, it would be fine, but it was Fu Qinglin.
The Fu family has made great contributions to the country and has great power, Fu Qinglin is the heir of the family, the most talented junior in the family, and the hope of the whole family, even King Liang does not dare to be more embarrassed, and make this kind of will, let the Fu family send Fu Qinglin. However, the consequences of offending a powerful suzerainty seem to be even more serious.
In the end, Zuo Bolun, the sect leader of the Zuo family, who is also one of the three major families, came up with the idea, first found an excuse to recruit Fu Qinglin into the palace and hide in a place where the Fu family could not find it, and then sent someone to talk to the Fu family and reward him more, even if the Fu family couldn't find anyone, even if it was noisy for a while, it was better than sending someone to the Fu family to rob people and force the Fu family to rebel.
King Liang himself was embarrassed to come to see Fu Zhuo, and people with too low status were not qualified to come to Fu Zhuo about this matter, so after coming and going, poor Prince Xiang became an unlucky guy who was piled up.
At this moment, he was almost scolded by the Fu family's boss, but he had to swallow his anger: "Master Fu, you listen to Xiao Wang, why doesn't the king want to protect Qinglin, and why don't you cherish your Fu family, it's just the temperament of the King of Jin, you also know that if you disobey him, it will be difficult to destroy the country." At that time, not only will the Liang Kingdom not be able to protect it, but even if it is your Fu family, how can you survive, your lips will be cold. ”
"That old *** has so many concubines, isn't it enough for him to play with? He also hit the idea on the man. Fu Zhuo was so angry that he didn't choose to speak: "Does our Liang Kingdom have to be so dependent on him?" Although the army of the Jin Kingdom is strong, we are hot-blooded men, and we really have no chance to fight in powder? Do we have to grovel and endure humiliation to steal our lives? ”
King Xiang sighed: "Today's world is chaotic, and a small country like ours has no way to survive except to rely on a big country." Yes, the men of the Fu family are all heroic, and they are never afraid of the enemy on the battlefield, if we fight hard, we may not necessarily lose to the Jin Kingdom, but what will we do after the first battle? The Jin State has a vast territory, and if it was defeated in a war, it can also reorganize its soldiers and horses again in order to fight again. Give him a year or two, and he will be able to gather a large army again, and our mere Liang State is to use the strength of the country to fight with Jin, even if he wins, he is in a bleak situation. Besides, even if the Jin State no longer sent troops, or could not afford to send any more troops, the Liang State itself would have lost the strength to protect itself. Now Qin Yifei, the third prince of Qin, is ambitious to conquer the countries. The light dust of the state of Chu Town shocked the Quartet, and all countries surrendered. Yan has the first shop Rong Qian, is an immortal hero, these powerful countries are constantly digging up, constantly annexing the surrounding small countries, if our Liang State does not have the protection and support of the big country, I am afraid that we will not be able to escape the fate of being annexed. Master Fu, under the nest, there are no eggs. ”
Fu Zhuotie's face was blue, he was silent, and after a while, Fang said: "No matter what, the next generation of the Fu family's head of the family can't be reduced to a male favorite." The surname Zuo came up with such a bad idea, and deceived my son like this, Lord Xiang, don't blame me for not knowing the way of the monarch and minister, if you don't return my son, our Fu family will be difficult for Liang Chen. ”
These words were extremely serious, King Xiang's face turned pale for a while, and after a long while, he laughed miserably: "Master Fu, in the Liang Kingdom, the three major families are powerful and have transcendent status, and if possible, the king does not want to offend you." But now the national crisis is imminent. If the Fu family is opposed, even if it is finally pacified, it will exhaust our national strength, and at that time, not to mention other powerful countries, even our suzerain, the Jin Kingdom, will be generous, stretch out their hands, and easily incorporate us into the territory. But if the requirements of King Jin are not met, no one can predict what kind of disaster the country will face. Instead of being a slave to the country at that time, it is better for Master Fu, you can kill Xiao Wang today to avenge your son. ”
Speaking of this, he bent his knees, did it crisply, and knelt down with the dignity of a prince.
Fu Zhuo was startled, and hurriedly stretched out his hand to pull: "Lord Wang, what are you doing here, hurry up." ”
King Xiang stalked his neck and posed as a dead pig who was not afraid of boiling water: "If you don't lose your anger, this king won't get up." ”
"You ......" Fu Zhuo knew that he was cheating, after all, he couldn't do anything, think about it again, the Fu family was finally honored and favored, after all, as a subordinate, he couldn't go too far. What's more, if there is really a trouble, it is nothing more than the burning of jade, what good can the Fu family have. In the place where his mind moved, he suddenly thought of a person, and his eyes flashed with brilliance for a moment: "Lord, what King Jin loves is nothing but the beauty of Qinglin, if my Fu family can offer a person who is ten times more handsome than Qinglin, can I put Qinglin back?" ”
King Xiang shook his head and smiled bitterly: "Master Fu, I know that you are reluctant to give up Qinglin, but the beauty of Fu Lang is known to the world, such a Zhong Ling Qi show, there is no one in ten thousand, where to find someone more beautiful than him for a while, even if there is such a character, there is no Fu Lang's talk style from a family." ”
Fu Zhuo smiled slightly: "If I can say this, I will naturally be able to hand over such a person." Lord Wang, come with me, after seeing this person, you will know what Zhong Lingqixiu is and what is unique. ”
"He's supposed to be my cousin. My second uncle pampered a slave girl after drinking and gave birth to him not long after. My second uncle had many wives and concubines, and his children were prosperous, and the sons born to female slaves were already lowly, and no one paid attention to them originally. Naturally, no matter how humble he is, after all, he is also the bloodline of my Fu family, so he is raised in this deep mansion compound, and it is nothing more than two more cases of silver every month, and in the young master ranking, it is just one more. ”
Fu Zhuo slowly explained as he led King Xiang to the depths of the courtyard.
King Xiang nodded slightly when he heard this, this kind of thing, in the mansions of the major nobles, has always been endless, which family with a group of wives and concubines, few of them are from humble backgrounds, not taken seriously, and in the name of the master, the so-called young master who died in the shadows.
"Who knows the appearance of this son...... Fu Zhuo suddenly smiled bitterly and shook his head, "You can't be too good in life, you can't be too strong, if anything is too outstanding and outstanding, it will be like a demon, but it is the root of the disaster." ”
Xiang Wang sighed in a low voice: "What?" ”
"When he was six years old, there were already several uncles in the clan who often quarreled with him, and when he was eight years old, one of my brothers in the clan fought for him, and when he was nine years old, many of the men of the clan were seriously injured in a fight for him. Later, the second uncle personally locked him in the abandoned garden, and my father classified it as a forbidden place. Fu Zhuo sighed softly, "First, he came from a humble background, and secondly, the family caused a lot of turmoil because of him, and regarded it as a family ugliness, and it was inconvenient to mention it to others, so outsiders never knew that the Fu family had a Fu Hanqing, and the beauty of his face was unique in the world. ”
While speaking, he has passed through many pavilions, Taoist pavilions, and reached a garden gate. The huge iron lock, and the rust on the lock, prove that the door has not been opened for a long time.
Fu Zhuo pointed to the gate: "When my father was in charge of the house, he asked people to change the gate of this garden to steel casting, put a huge lock of black iron, and put stingers on the surrounding walls, so that people could no longer pass through, except for two servants every day to deliver food in the dog hole in the corner of the wall, and four times a year to deliver clothes, no one came to contact him. ”
King Xiang frowned slightly: "So Master Fu hasn't seen him for more than ten years." He may be beautiful when he is young, but he may not be as beautiful as he was when he grows up. This person is also in his twenties, no longer has the style of a teenager, and his body is not flexible enough. After so many years of captivity and torture, I am afraid that ......"
Fu Zhuo smiled slightly: "Although I haven't seen him for more than ten years, I am convinced that his grace and appearance will only be more beautiful and will never fade." As for the older ones who are inferior to the young? If it is an ordinary person, it can be compared like this, but among the thousands, there will always be a natural demon stunner, but it is not comparable to this ordinary person. As for being tortured? In the end, he dared to be the bloodline of the Fu family, and no one wanted to damage him. In addition to food and clothing, if he raised his needs, as long as it was not excessive, everyone would still try their best to meet them, but he himself hardly asked for anything? As for captivity......"
There was an indescribable sigh or smile on his face: "In fact, if he himself does not want to, this garden may not be able to imprison him." ”
Saying that, he stretched out his hand and pressed the big lock, pulled it a few times, and shook his head: "It's been a long time, this lock has rusted to death, if the prince doesn't mind, I will order my subordinates to build a high ladder, and let's climb the wall hard." ”
King Xiang smiled: "Master Fu should not underestimate this king too much, although this king is getting older, his kung fu has not been put down, let's jump on it, why bother so much." ”
Fu Zhuo hurriedly grabbed him: "Lord Wang, although it has been ten years, but the stinger on the wall used the most poisonous in the world back then, in order to imprison that person for a lifetime, even after ten years of wind and rain, the toxicity may not subside, as long as we step on the wall, it is possible to be poisoned, it is safer to use a high ladder." ”
King Xiang would not joke with his life, and after nodding his head in agreement, the Fu family quickly took the ladder because the wall used as a prisoner was specially added to be very high, and the people of the Fu family had to temporarily connect the three ladders together to barely get higher than the wall. When the king of Chaoxiang and the head of the Fu family began to climb up step by step, they were very unimpressive.
Although Fu Zhuo was the master, the previous introduction had aroused King Xiang's infinite curiosity, so he himself rushed to climb in front, and his body exceeded the wall in front of him, and he hurriedly poked his head out and looked down.
The garden that had not been cleaned for ten years, and the houses in the garden were deserted and dilapidated, one can imagine, but King Xiang's eyes were completely locked by a figure lying on a big stone in the center of the garden.
The man also seemed to hear the movement, and turned over on the stone, just face up, just in time to face up with King Xiang.
King Xiang finally saw the true face of Fu Hanqing, who was in Fu Zhuo's mouth, had a unique appearance in the world, and was born a demon stunner. Then his feet were soft, and he screamed, and his body, which was desperately leaning forward because he was anxious to see people, lost his center of gravity, and planted himself solidly, from the very high and high wall, directly into the abandoned garden, and fell headfirst downward.
Because of Fu Zhuo's explanation, King Xiang naturally had infinite expectations for Fu Hanqing's appearance in his heart, and leaned out from the wall with all his might, looking forward to seeing a natural stunner who captivated the country and the city at a glance. However, the person who was seen had a lot of hair and beard. The lower half of his face is full of beard, and the upper half of his face is firmly blocked by a messy hair, and he can't see his face at all. With a piece of clothing, I can't tell whether it's black, yellow, or gray. If it is said to be a peerless stunner, it is absolutely not touched, if it is said to be a natural savage, it is extremely reasonable.
Originally, seeing a wild man may not be able to frighten King Xiang, but his expectations are too high, but what he sees in his eyes is too shocking, reality and fantasy form an incomparably sharp contrast, so that he is too shocked, and he planted himself from the ladder to the garden.
When the wild man saw him fall, he sprang off the rock, and jumped directly under him, and with one hand, he was about to save people.
Although Wang Ye's martial arts are not too high, they are not weak. Just now because he was too shocked and fell down, and because the wall was too high, he was at a loss for a moment, but he quickly regained his composure, took a deep breath, and stayed in mid-air to lift his breath and jump, find the center of gravity, and make a beautiful landing.
Who knew that when this breath was inhaled, it was an incomparably sour smell. It was so big that his face was immediately red, and he was almost dizzy, and his body shook three times in a row, piercing his hands and feet, and fell straight into the arms of the wild man's open hands.
Because the wall was too high, and the momentum of the fall was too great, the wild man was also carried by his momentum and fell to the ground, and at first glance, it seemed that the two of them were hugging each other and rolling on the weeds.
The savage didn't make a sound so far, but he naturally hugged him tightly to cushion his downward trend, the two of them were so close that this incomparable sour smell was even more smoked to remove the seven spirits of King Xiang's three souls, and his breath was dying, and his whole body strength could not be lifted at all.
At this point, he realized in a trance that even if he was the best beauty in the world, he was locked up in a closed space for more than ten years, and it would never be possible to keep his beauty out of the dust.
A beard that has not been shaved for many years can cover all the unparalleled faces in the world.
Hair that has not been combed for many years can turn silky softness and tenderness into coarse and dry, like weeds and dead branches.
I haven't washed my clothes for many years, I haven't taken a bath, the sweat of the human body, and the natural dirt are constantly superimposed, even if he is a peerless beautiful man who is born with a strange fragrance, this time, he is a savage who is dirtier and more unbearable than a beggar.
Xiang Wang is a golden and noble prince, he has always paid attention to food and clothing, every day he will bathe in the clothes of a beautiful woman with water and flowers, and the clothes he goes out with incense, and now he is hugged by a wild man who is dirty and smelly, and his appearance is extremely terrifying, his nose smells all unbearable smell, and what his eyes see is all tangled hair, beard and dirt, he can't wait to faint to death.
At this time, Fu Zhuo also jumped down and asked one after another, "Lord Wang, are you okay?" Although he asked with concern, he stood far away, and he still had the upper hand, and he didn't mean to come to the rescue.
King Xiang had to be self-reliant, he didn't dare to breathe now, let alone improve his luck, so he had to use both hands and feet, even rolling and crawling, trying to break out of that person's arms, how far he could run, as for whether this embarrassed image and the identity of a prince matched, this is no longer a concern.
He gasped and finally approached Fu Zhuo, his face was colorless, his fingers trembled and pointed at the wild man who was still lying on the ground and had not gotten up again, and said silently: "Master Fu, this is the most beautiful man in the world that you want to sacrifice to the king in exchange for Qinglin, this is what you said, Zhong Ling Qixiu, there is no one in ten thousand." ”
Fu Zhuo laughed dryly, carefully kept his distance and shouted to the person who slowly got up from the ground: "How long has it been since you took a shower and changed your clothes?" ”
The man looked up, perhaps hesitating for a moment, or perhaps he had not spoken to anyone for too long, so he forgot the language, and after a long time, he said slowly, "They have not brought in any more clothes since I stopped growing my body." Although there is a pond here, it has long been blocked to prevent me from escaping along the water, and it has become a dirty and smelly stagnant water, and I can't take a bath or wash my clothes. When it rains, I borrow rainwater to wash, but it won't be very clean, and it hasn't rained in the capital for more than a month. ”
He spoke slowly, sometimes pausing for a word or two, but with just one sentence, his tone changed from hard to smooth.
King Xiang suddenly let out a low sigh, the disgust on his face gradually turned into shock, and he began to listen to this person's speech, and he just thought that the voice was surprisingly good, but as his tone gradually became calm and smooth, the voice was simply like the most precious gem in the world gently tapping the most mysterious crystal cup in a distant country, which was incredibly pleasant.
Fu Zhuo's face sank: "What do you need, won't you tell your subordinates?" ”
"I said once or twice, they didn't bring water and new clothes in, and I didn't say anything about it later." His tone was extremely flat, just because he wanted to answer Fu Zhuo's question, so he explained it without any dissatisfaction or anger.
Fu Zhuo's face gradually darkened as the bottom of a pot, and even King Xiang, who was standing on the side, also understood.
As the blood of the Fu family, even if Fu Hanqing is locked up, the people in charge of the family have no intention of deliberately treating him lightly, but the subordinates in charge will inevitably have their own selfish intentions, and they didn't dare to treat him too slowly at first.
A young master of the Fu family has a case of silver pulled out every month, Fu Hanqing was imprisoned, and the silver naturally belonged to the subordinates who managed him. Since Fu Hanqing's body has fully grown, his subordinates have naturally saved money to buy clothes. If you want to think about it deeply, I am afraid that in recent years, Fu Hanqing's food and drink, no one may be willing to use a penny in it, but directly in the kitchen, see if there is any leftovers, and take what is leftover. Even sometimes, if you are busy with other things, it is very likely that you will not deliver a meal for a day or two, or even a day or two. Such an uncared prisoner asked for a bath, and no one would pay attention to it, and perhaps after he opened his mouth, he would be rewarded with a mean sarcasm, ridicule and even abuse.
Fu Zhuo's face was calm, frozen there, and he couldn't speak for a while.
Fu Hanqing has been imprisoned for more than ten years, and when he sees someone for the first time, he is not even excited, happy or curious, and he doesn't even ask a word, Fu Zhuo doesn't speak, he doesn't urge, and slowly sits back on the big stone slab where he was lying and sleeping just now, and slowly lowers his head.
Seeing the scene, King Xiang froze, and carefully gently pulled Fu Zhuo's sleeve.
Fu Zhuo coughed wildly: "Seventeenth brother, I am the eldest brother, the current head of the family, do you remember?" ”
Fu Hanqing didn't speak, just nodded on the big stone slab.
"Over the years, you have indeed been wronged here, and now you have a chance to go out and enjoy the glory and wealth, fine clothes and food, would you like to?"
Fu Hanqing still didn't speak, just nodded.
Fu Zhuo was slightly relieved: "The king intends to choose a beautiful man to dedicate to the king of Jin, originally intended Qinglin, it is my son, your nephew, before you entered the customs, he was only four years old, do you still remember him?" ”
Fu Hanqing still nodded.
"I thought you were more suitable than him, so I recommended you to Lord Xiang." As he spoke, he stretched out his finger and pointed at King Xiang.
King Xiang was so helpless that he grinned reluctantly and made a smiling expression. My God, I'm here to see what I look like, I'm here to inspect the goods, I don't call the shots, I didn't promise to recommend a wild man who doesn't know what he looks like, even if his voice is good, but I can't afford such a big responsibility.
He wanted to shirk it, but seeing the vicious expression of the boss of the Fu family, he had to swallow all the words back into his stomach very interestingly.
"Are you willing to exchange Qinglin out, enjoy the wealth of the world from now on, and completely get rid of the current prison life?" Fu Zhuo asked quickly.
Xiang Wang was secretly amused by the side, he said it really easily and beautifully, the most important explanation, without mentioning a word, was locked up at the age of nine, for male pets, ** I am afraid that people who have no concept at all, where can they tell the difference, and they don't immediately agree when they hear that they can escape from the cage.
As expected, Fu Hanqing nodded again.
Fu Zhuowan didn't expect that he agreed so happily, he was overjoyed, and said loudly: "Okay, without further ado, let's go." ”
Fu Hanqing was still very obedient and obedient and nodded, and then ...... Sit on the rock, motionless.
Fu Zhuo waited patiently for a while, and finally couldn't help but shout: "Fu Hanqing!" ”
Fu Hanqing still nodded, still not moving.
Xiang Wang suddenly felt that something was wrong, hesitated, took a deep breath first, then held his breath, approached lightly, forcibly rejected the dirty, looked at Fu Hanqing seriously, and then a question slowly rose in his heart.
This one...... Won't it ...... No way...... Absolutely not! What does this man say, shouldn't he sit back on the slate where he slept and continue to sleep after seeing the only visitor in more than ten years?
