After listening to the master's book, Bu Fanchen and Mu Ji headed towards the center of the city.

The location of the second prince's mansion is Longyue Street, which is ten miles away from the palace, and the street where Bu Fanchen and Mu Ji are located at the moment is called Zhenxiang, which is closely connected to Longyue. The two streets join each other to form a large ring that encloses the palace and the inner blocks.

There are often rumors among the people that when you are in the town of Long Yuexin, you will see the Son of Heaven and become an immortal.

The meaning is probably that the vast majority of the people within these two streets are martial cultivation families, and almost all of them have strong people at the level of martial arts and above, even those civil official families, and there are many king-level and monarch-level worshippers in their families.

Cheng Xian refers to the people of these martial arts families, most of whom have higher talents than ordinary people, and all of them are martial arts embryos who are expected to climb the mountain, so the force value of the whole street is not weak, but on the contrary, the security here is better, and the reason for this is that most families are not weak, and no one dares to go crazy.

As he walked, Makuhime and Bu Fanchen introduced him to the origin of this town elephant street.

Passing by a tailor shop, Bu Fanchen saw a high-rise building measuring 20 zhang high, covering a wide area, with a height of ten floors, each floor has six meters, and the plaque that shines in the sun alone is five meters long and two meters wide, and there are three big characters written on it.

Bu Fanchen frowned slightly, and his mind kept thinking.

The shop that dares to name the restaurant after the street has not collapsed so far, and it is still open so well, which means that there must be an extraordinary force behind it.

Seeing Bu Fanchen frowning, Mu Ji knew what he was thinking, and immediately spoke: "The superficial forces behind the Zhenxiang Tower here are now owned by the Wang family on the street of Zhenxiang, and there are neither military nor court officials in this family, it is a family that has been doing business for generations, as if it has been the case for nearly a hundred years. But according to internal information, the real strength behind it is a certain wealthy family in the capital. Don't hide it from Childe, although there is no news and no evidence, but Makuhime herself feels that the real reliance here should be related to Childe's surname. “

After listening to Mu Ji's introduction, Bu Fanchen made up his mind a little, and said suspiciously: "You mean that this is a way for emperors of all generations to make money and obtain news?"

Makuhime shook her head lightly and replied: "The slave family is not sure, but I just guess that this is so, what the slave family said is related to the surname of the childe, but it doesn't make much sense." “

"What's the explanation?" Bu Fanchen asked rhetorically.

Because this restaurant was used by various generations of Holy Emperors to obtain news, it stands to reason that there are many shady transactions taking place here, but no news has been leaked because of this, and no secret transactions made by any family here have been detected by the royal family.

It is even rumored that several traitors in history have passed on the news here, but they are still not exposed here, if it is the eyes of the Holy Emperor, how can they tolerate such a thing, it doesn't make sense?" Makuhime said her doubtful thoughts.

Bu Fanchen fell silent, and the tradition of the Bu family changing emperors every thousand years suddenly popped up in his mind, and many of them were quite strong.

Don't talk about others, my own uncle Bu Zhuang Bi, I heard the fourth uncle say that he was already a martial artist four years ago, and the martial monarch who is less than a hundred years old is still quite young, this kind of talent plus the foreshadowing of resources, it stands to reason that it is very promising to enter the imperial level in the later stage, so where did these imperial masters go?

It's definitely not the ones on the surface, after all, in addition to the emperor's vein, what about the other veins?

For example, there must be a lot of fathers and the like, Bu Fanchen wondered if they were watching everything in the south, although they would not be too involved in politics, but they had been silently watching every move of this court.

But after thinking about it, Bu Fanchen gave up this idea, after all, if it was him, he wouldn't be so boring, so he simply didn't think about it anymore.

What he didn't know was that he was almost guessing by imagination and getting close to the truth of the matter.

Only people like him who haven't talked about things in the town elephant tower would think so, and others rarely have these speculations, because as Makuhime said, this town elephant tower really hasn't leaked the news.

This practice is really the most real business reputation, but if it has something to do with the official family, there will definitely be clues for so many years, but the age of this restaurant is so long, and it has changed a lot of owners on the surface, the only thing that remains unchanged is that the news has never been leaked from here.

You know, even a family like the Huang family that doesn't participate in the dispute over the throne, if there is such a restaurant, it will be used to deal with political enemies, right?

It has never been a problem, it has always been a luxury restaurant, so no one will be too suspicious of it.

At this time, a young man with a sunny face and a beautiful face walked across from Bu Fanchen, handsome is no longer enough to describe his appearance, only the word beautiful can be barely modified, even if the curtain girl who is still beautiful in front of this person, he will wonder who is the girl.

When the young man saw Bu Fanchen, he smiled.

Bu Fanchen could clearly feel that the person's intention was exactly himself, but he definitely didn't have any friends when he first came to the capital, and this person was a little surprised to let Bu Fanchen.

When Mu Ji saw that the beautiful young man was clearly walking towards the two of them, his expression tightened, and he secretly said: Childe, as expected, this person is the fifteenth master who has nothing, step by step.

In the past, I just heard others say that he was an extremely good-looking person, and there were only ordinary portraits in the dark market, and no one dared to make a spar image of the royal family, so the curtain was only the first time I saw it, and what I saw today was to know what a celestial person was.

And I can't perceive his cultivation, but Makuhime thinks that he is not a martial artist as rumored by the outside world, and there should be some kind of concealment.

Bu Fanchen frowned slightly, and continued to walk forward, without any plan, just as he was about to walk in front of Bu Yuxiu, Bu Yuxiu finally spoke: "If the guess is right, you should be the second uncle's child that is, my youngest brother, my name is Bu Yuxiu, fifteen years old, your uncle's fifteenth child." ”

Bu Fanchen's brows furrowed even deeper, this step Yu Xiu, his nominal cousin's way of meeting was a little special, and what puzzled him the most was why someone recognized him? His father has not been in Nanguo for more than 30 years, why does someone know that his father already has a child, and he "meets by chance" with himself here so accurately. Turning to glance at Makuhime, who hurriedly shook his head, his face frightened.

Makuhime finally made up her mind, gave up her free life, and chose to serve Bu Fanchen, which was considered a betrayal before her own son became strong, how could she feel good, and to kill her with Bu Fanchen's background, it would only be extremely easy in this capital or in the entire southern country.

Seeing that Mu Ji was so frightened, and felt the most real fear from the bottom of his heart, Bu Fanchen put away his doubtful and cold gaze, and said, "What are you doing in a panic? I mean to ask you, is it that we were followed halfway, or accidentally leaked the news? What? Do you think I'm questioning you? Or am I such a terrible person?"

After receiving the reply, Makuhime's expression softened, nodded slightly, and then immediately shook her head.

Nodding in response to Bu Fanchen's own mistake, shaking her head to veto her disclosure of the news, she is not stupid, how could she take the initiative to leak the news, of course, she is also vetoing a few questions behind Bu Fanchen.

Today is the second time she has been nervous, and her heart is too heavy to find a chance to sort it out.

Bu Fanchen sighed softly, and said helplessly: "How did you live to this age, I can't understand it with such a look, and ah, we are partners, since we are partners, don't want to betray or anything at every turn, if I didn't even trust you on this basis, I wouldn't have chosen you in the first place." There's no next time, you know!"

After finishing speaking, Fan Chen was a little angry because of Mu Ji's reaction, and continued: "You are a slave from a slave family, how can you drop, now I want to be nine years old to take care of you in your thirties!

Hearing the comforting words that were still a little immature, Mahime put her mind at ease, put that matter aside, quickly adjusted her mind, and pretended to be shy: "Childe didn't take care of the slave family half a month ago, how can it be said that it is bells and whistles! “

Bu Fanchen saw that Mu Ji was really no longer nervous, and a trace of thought flashed between his eyebrows, but Mu Ji didn't want to say, he naturally wouldn't ask. As he said, true trust comes from the active communication between each other. Since Makuhime can joke, it means that she is in the right state of mind.

He rolled his eyes helplessly and shook his head gently. He simply turned his head, with a smile, and stared at Bu Yuxiu, wanting to see what the latter said next.

Since you can't hide from it, it's better to enter the game in advance, after all, isn't it just to cultivate your mind when you come to the palace, as for whether you will participate in the battle for the throne or how to participate in the end, it depends on how things develop in the future.

Originally, I wanted to prepare with the advantage of information, but this move was obviously to advance the process.

Bu Fanchen and Bu Yuxiu stared at each other like that, even if they were looking at each other, it was also a contest of hearts, just to see who could see more in each other's eyes.

Of course, there is no doubt that the older Bu Yuxiu won, in addition to seeing the profundity and familiarity with the world in the eyes of both parties, Yu Yuxiu also saw a kind of clarity in Bu Fanchen's eyes, which made him extremely happy, because in the palace, this kind of clarity was almost inaudible, including himself, very little.

He watched every move of Bu Fanchen and Makuhime just now, so he felt that he could cooperate with this cousin, and the big battle was coming, and he also needed such an ally. The support of a prince is important to him. Of course, he naturally didn't know that Bu Youkong was already a master at the level of Martial Venerable, and according to the past, he would not be involved in disputes.

The two sides watched for more than half a minute, and Bu Yuxiu pointed to the town elephant building, before he spoke: "The younger brother first came to the capital, it is a good place to chat, I don't know what to do." ”

Bu Fanchen shrugged his shoulders, meaning who was afraid of whom, shook his head and signaled to the next curtain Ji, and said: "Go, go up with the master to eat something, remember the whole thing that is expensive to die." ”

Makuhime giggled and walked ahead of the curve, opening the way for the two.

The guys in the building are very enthusiastic, and all of them are good at martial arts, almost all of them have the strength of martial arts, if they are a border town, they are completely the existence of the head of the family, but they are willing to be partners here, I have to say that the charm of Kyoto is great.

The private rooms inside are quaint style, and each private room has a forbidden inscription, that is to say, unless it is cultivated to be an extremely strong existence, once someone probes the content of other boxes, the strength is not enough to naturally detect, and the strength is enough but not particularly strong will cause a note prohibition reaction, which is why it is safe to trade or chat here, of course, its price is not affordable to ordinary people.

What shocked Yu Xiu was that the maid who was a little beautiful in Bu Fanchen was also allowed to participate in the conversation between the two.

I don't know if Bu Fanchen has a big heart or that he just trusts her so much, it stands to reason that it shouldn't be, since he got the news, Bu Fanchen didn't return to the south for a long time, and Mu Ji is indeed a southerner, so the two will definitely not meet for too long, it stands to reason that there shouldn't be this kind of trust, and Bu Fanchen doesn't look like a person with a big heart.

What made him even more puzzled was that the two of them ordered a lot of dishes as soon as they came, naturally they were not cheap, there were no cheap dishes in this town elephant building, but what they ordered was not the most expensive, such as the phoenix pith and dragon liver, they didn't order it.

Of course, it's just called that, everyone knows that there is only a slight trace of the bloodline of the two divine beasts, and even the sub-varieties are far inferior, but even so, it is very expensive, and the price of one is ten medium-grade yuan stones. As for the ordinary gold and silver, it had to be pulled by a mammoth cart to be able to afford to eat here.

After the dishes were served, Bu Fanchen started eating without being polite, and he didn't plan to talk about business with Bu Yuxiu at all, and the waitress who was still entangled began to gobble up under Bu Fanchen's instructions, without the appearance that a maid should have.

Fortunately, Bu Yu Xiu is a wise and open-minded person, since he has spent so much effort, he has to come here to intercept him even if he offends Bu Fanchen, so he naturally has to "follow the customs" a little. So they also ate and drank together.

Until the end of the whole banquet, the two did not talk anything, originally Bu Yuxiu was prepared to treat people with sincerity first, and then see the latter's reaction.

It's just that in the process of the three of them eating, Bu Fanchen's surprising eating appearance and the simple and sincere atmosphere revealed set off the entire range, causing Bu Yuxiu and Makuhime to be somewhat infected.

After some thought, Bu Yuxiu finally decided not to talk about those things, after all, a good start based on the premise of heart-to-heart is far more powerful than the honesty related to interests. He knows how to make trade-offs, and he is not the kind of person who doesn't know what to do.

This is the choice that Bu Fanchen gave him, and it is also the reason that Bu Fanchen gave himself, that is, to practice his heart and choose people.

Bu Yuxiu directly opened his mouth to talk to him about the future, and if he was sincere enough, he would consider cooperation, but it was only cooperation.

In this process, we will experience life and death choices together, and we will encounter conflicts of interest, but since it is cooperation, there will be the possibility of mutual vigilance, competition and even hostility.

Fortunately, the far-sighted Bu Yuxiu did not speak, but just invited his younger brother who had returned home from afar to have a meal, which was extremely stupid in the eyes of others, thinking that he had lost the first opportunity to drop the bait.

And although Bu Yuxiu saw Bu Fanchen for the first time, he knew that maybe this was the most correct way to open with him, although there was a lot of gambling in it.

When leaving, Bu Fanchen thought about it, turned around and said to Bu Yuxiu with a smile: "Thank you for your hospitality today, we will invite you next time." ”

The cousin laughed, and it was right to be out of his brother's pocket. A glimmer of light flashed in Bu Yuxiu's eyes, and he was secretly happy and replied.

On the way back to the palace, Bu Fanchen asked Mu Ji what he thought of Bu Yu Xiu.

Mu Ji replied: "If it weren't for the fact that the identity of the prince of the palace could not be faked, the slave family would have to wonder if the fifteenth master was a princess who was mortal, and his appearance would not be said for the time being." His voice is so crisp that it is rare among men. ”

Bu Fanchen stopped and glanced at Makuhime: "Oh, how can you say this! You are usually so confident, but now in the face of a man, you are not confident in your appearance, but it is a little interesting." “

Mu Ji said with a sincere look in his eyes: "Don't hide it from the son, as a woman, I felt a trace of the same sex in the fifteenth master, but later denied my own opinion." ”

Bu Fanchen frowned, put away his playful eyes, and asked solemnly, "You might as well talk about it!"

First of all, the fifteenth master's posture and voice are too different from men, which will really mislead people, but at the same time, I know that I am a man, and I also feel the kind of masculine that is unique to men in the fifteenth master, so I deny my own opinion, and I suspect that the fifteenth master's feminine spirit is deliberately emitted by the fifteenth master to confuse everyone. Makuhime analyzed seriously.

Bu Fanchen fell into thought, and said with a slightly cold look in his eyes: "I don't care if it's a man or a woman, but he met you and me in the Town Elephant Tower, which made me a little surprised and angry." ”

What does Childe mean?" Makuhime wondered.

Bu Fanchen turned to a smile and said: "Fortunately, the meal was good, and there was no "mosquito" sound, so I didn't get angry again, who called me a person with a big heart like the sea, haha!"

His own son is even more like a child at the moment, Makuhime felt a little happy, but thinking about what Fan Chen just said, he couldn't help frowning and said: "What does Childe mean when he says that he doesn't care whether it's a man or a woman, although there are examples of women ruling in other countries, but there has never been such a precedent in the history of my southern country." ”

That's because the women of my southern kingdom have no intention of power, and as long as they dare to be self-reliant, capable and thoughtful, why can't they be called emperors?

Those in power can serve the people in good faith, regardless of gender, but I can't deny that men are generally far from being able to govern. The idea of equality between men and women in the world in Bu Fanchen's dream subconsciously influenced him.

Makuhime lowered her head shallowly, not knowing what to say, you must know that even some of the more excellent women cannot escape the unreasonable arrangements or give up by the elders in the family.

For example, she Murong Qiyan, in the Murong family of the Middle County of the Southern Kingdom, her qualifications are definitely the strongest, she already has the cultivation of the first level of martial arts when she is less than twenty years old, compared to people who are not highly gifted in the royal family today, such as the eldest prince and the like. She's the same.

Of course, that is also because the great prince's martial arts talent is not high, and most of the people who cultivate the Bu family are late bloomers because of their heart cultivation, and there are young strong people but not particularly many, and because of the family inheritance, the forty-year-old martial spirit of the Nanguo Bu family, if you convert the talent, it should be regarded as a twenty-five martial spirit, because the road of mind cultivation is too laborious, not the talent is abnormal, such as Bu Shangxin and the second prince Buman, etc., basically it is about twenty-five to break through the martial spirit, of course, it is only the direct line of the throne that has this situation.

At the beginning, in order to agree to the request of the Zhang family in Zhongling City, the Murong family wanted to marry her to someone she didn't like despite her opposition, and even after she resisted, it affected the face of the Zhang family, and the Murong family did not hesitate to use violent means to make her surrender, if it wasn't for the great opportunity to become a martial arts powerhouse at that time, I am afraid that she would have died or become a slave of the Zhang family.

At this moment, seeing her son-in-law respecting women so much, how could she not feel it?
