"At the end of this year, something like this happened to the Gu family, it's really tragic."

"Who said it wasn't, a good young man, he actually said no, and it was gone."

"Died so suddenly, could it be someone assassinated?"

"That's the five-grade chief of the Arsenal Division of the Ministry of War, if he dies by him, he will definitely be investigated, and now the yamen have not spoken, which means that it is really an accident."

Outside the gate of the ancient mansion, it has changed from a lantern to a whole house.

At first, I thought it was the death of the ancient general, but unexpectedly there was news that the eldest grandson of the Gu family was gone.

Gu Nanming, who is young and worships five grades, is quite explosive in the young master circle in the entire capital.

But such a person died suddenly.

It's even more explosive.

The Gu family said to the outside world that Gu Nanming died in an accident, but what kind of accident he died from has not been publicly determined.

The official government yamen also sent people to take a look, but then they didn't squeak, and it was right to say unexpectedly.

"It's really unlucky." The people passing by scolded and scolded, and when they heard the sound of gongs and drums coming from the ancient mansion, they frowned and stayed away.

"It's the New Year today, why do you have to do a funeral today?" Some people feel like they've been hit.

Someone was speechless and said, "What's the matter, if you want to die, you can still discuss with Lord Yama and die after the festival?" ”

……

Fangjiazhuang.

"Young master, I've been to see it, the Gu family is doing a funeral." As soon as he entered the house, he took off his jacket, and there was a brazier in the house that was not cold.

Fang Jue pointed to the side, there was a bowl of hot soup on the table, and motioned for Dian Yi to drink it first.

"It's okay, martial arts practitioners, this bit of cold is nothing." Dian, waving his hand, walked over, picked up the bowl and poured it.

After drinking the canon, Fang Jue said slowly:

"It's Gu Nanming who is dead, right?"

"Yes, young master, how do you know?"

Dian Yi didn't know that when he went to Gu's house that day, the gift box he gave was an empty box.

This is also what Fang Jue meant, let the Gu family deal with it themselves, lest the matter be put on the bright side, and the Gu family will suffer more losses.

"You go to the Gu family to have a look."

Fang Jue said: "Go at night and see if it is Gu Nanming who died." ”

"Huh?"

Dianyi frowned: "Can this matter be fake?" If he hadn't died, why would the Gu family have a funeral for him? ”

"Huh."

Sneered twice, he was not cautious, but thought of the Ye family.

Some people don't cry when they don't see the coffin, and it is very difficult to make the other party feel the price.

Even if Fang Jue's current momentum was terrifying, it was just hot, and it was difficult for the Gu family to make the decision to sacrifice their eldest son so quickly.

Moreover, there are two days in between, and it is not the same day that he died, so there is more room for operation.

"I'm almost certain that Gu Nanming isn't dead."

Fang Jue said lightly: "The Gu family is afraid of me, and in order to give me an explanation, they will give Gu Nanming a funeral." But that doesn't mean they are willing to have such an outstanding heir. ”

"Oh......"

Dian Yi realized: "The young master went to the Gu family that day, it turned out to be this meaning...... This ancient family is really hateful, the young master has given them a chance, if they really dare to deceive the young master, I will give them some color to see! ”

After that, Dianyi took the sword, picked up the jacket casually, and went out again.

Fang Jue said: "If Gu Nanming is dead, ask Gu Bin for the name of his party." ”

"What if Gu Nanming didn't die?" Dianichi narrowed his eyes, a little expectant.

"Then kill him! Whoever dares to stop you will be killed...... Except for Gu Bin. Fang Jue raised the corners of his eyebrows lightly and replied coldly.

If you don't kill Gu Bin, it's not because you're afraid of anything, but because you save some face for the emperor.

"Okay!"

When Dian heard this, he was immediately surprised, and when he walked out of the door, he thought to himself - Gu Nanming, you'd better not die yet!

…………

As soon as Dian left, Fang Jue walked to the courtyard and looked at the dead vines.

There was a grape vine at the well, and not long after it was moved, it had already withered except for the roots.

It's hot after autumn this year.

But Fang Jue didn't let people dig up the vines, because he knew that when spring came, those parts that were still alive would naturally grow wildly.

"Sir, there are guests." Fang Fu rubbed his knees and walked over.

Fang Jue smiled: "Uncle Fu, you are an old cold leg, let Fang Han pass the word." ”

Fang Han is Fang Fu's son, and now he is also in his teens, which can be used.

"That's not good, that little cub hasn't been trained yet, he doesn't know most of the things in Zhuangzi, let's talk about it in a few years...... I'm an old horseman, and I can still resist for some time. ”

Speaking of that son, the corners of Fang Fu's mouth were also full of smiles.

Fang Jue said: "Uncle Fu, if one day Fang Han does something very wrong, what will you do?" ”

"This ......"

Fang Fu groaned: "I will teach him well and not let this day appear." ”

"Ugh."

Fang Jue sighed: "Yes, why is it not good to teach...... Some people don't have such thoughts, and they always think about making up for it after the fact. ”

"Who is the master talking about?" Fang Fu said with a smile.

Fang Jue shook his head before asking:

"Which guest is coming?"

Fang Fu also smiled suddenly: "Master, I forgot about this interruption...... It's King Jin. ”

King Jin?

Fang Jue chuckled: "Today's New Year, there is a banquet in the palace, he doesn't go to accompany his father and emperor, what is he doing here?" ”

Fang Fu smiled: "I must have come to say hello to you, the teacher." ”

"Hehe, is King Qin here?" Fang Jue asked casually.

Hearing this, Fang Fuluo recalled for a moment and shook his head: "King Qin sent someone to send a lot of gifts, saying that he would come to see him tomorrow." ”

"I know, you take King Jin to the village, and I'll take him around." Fang Jue nodded.

……

"Today's palace banquet, coupled with the victory of this year's Northern Expedition, today's palace must be a grand occasion...... Why don't you show your face in front of the hundred officials and come to me? ”

On the ridge, Fang Jue walked in front of King Jin.

King Jin smiled: "Didn't my father also invite a teacher, and didn't the teacher go?" ”

"I like to be lively, but I don't like to be too polite." Fang Jue shook his head.

As a national teacher, and like the most famous new minister today, Fang Jue naturally received a banquet.

But he didn't want to go at all, so he immediately refused the invitation to the inner supervisor who had come to deliver the message.

Thinking of the strange expression of the inner supervisor, Fang Jue felt amused now.

"What the teacher said is very true, and the disciple doesn't like that scene either." King Jin also agreed.

Fang Jue looked at a plum blossom forest, was still in a good mood, and said: "You are different from me, you have to get used to it, join in and talk about it, like the King of Qin." ”

King Jin shook his head and said: "Brother Qin Wang is longer sleeved than me and is good at dancing, I am probably used to hiding, and it is uncomfortable for me to show my head too much." ”

"You're going to throw in the towel?"

Fang Jue said with a smile: "I heard that you and King Qin have already begun to fight in front of you, and there is a conflict. ”

"My father wants to balance the situation, and Brother Qin wants to be popular with political achievements, so I have to fulfill them, some of them are just acting on the spot."

King Jin looked at Fang Jue, somehow, when this annual leave began, he suddenly felt that this teacher had changed.

I became hard.

Some of the things that were meant to be covered up before are now being said bluntly.

In the past, the young master would definitely not refuse to attend the palace banquet, but now he can refuse at will.

But his father didn't look more afraid of him.

King Jin was a little puzzled, he wanted to take advantage of today's palace banquet when no one came to Fangjiazhuang and personally came to ask about some things.

"Do you know, why didn't Your Majesty make a prince?"

Fang Jue turned his head, squinted with a smile, and stared at King Jin.

King Jin glared: "Teacher, you! ”

I looked left and right, but fortunately no one could hear this.

The former young master would not talk about such a thing.

"Please, teacher?" King Jin bowed his hand and spoke cautiously, not sure if Fang Jue was tempting.

Fang Jue said: "You don't have to be so cautious. ”

"Your Majesty does not appoint a prince, one is because he is too young, and he is worried that the prince will accumulate too much prestige and replace him too early."

King Jin swallowed, shocked in his heart.

Dear mother, is this still my teacher, why do you suddenly dare to speak so much!

Fang Jue continued to take care of himself: "Second, there are several princes who have high hopes, but none of them have shown the character and ability that satisfies him and the clan. ”

King Jin smiled bitterly: "The disciple is lacking in virtue, and the teacher should teach more." ”

"Yuan Jiong." Fang Jue suddenly shouted.

King Jin was stunned, he didn't expect to be called by his name, and secretly said in his heart What was this going to say, how could he suddenly be so solemn.

"Teacher?" King Jin cautiously bowed his hand and listened.

Fang Jue put his hands behind his back, smiled at the respectful King Jin in front of him, but said amazingly:

"Do you want to be the lord of the world?"
