Chapter 251: Help Me Hugh
"Yongcheng Houfu ......"
Zhu rubbed the jade bracelet on his wrist, his expression was obscure, and he stood on the side of the street for a long time before walking in the direction where Xie Wanzhou left.

Yongcheng Houfu
Fang Xu sat on the top, with a delicate hand stove on his lap, picked up the tea cup on the table with his bare hands, skimmed off the foam on his face, and said lightly, "Have you seen the Liu family?" ”
"The slave maid just came back from fighting, the previous battle in Houfu was big, and Master Liu was forced to be helpless, so for the sake of his own face, he had to do his best to handle Mrs. Liu's funeral." Bai Ji stood behind her and gently pinched her shoulders for her, "Madame, don't worry, there is Ye Ming staring over there." ”
"That's fine." Fang Xu was satisfied, and took a sip of the teacup, "If he doesn't do anything, don't think about this reputation." ”
"Madame didn't see that when the slave maid led people over, the faces of Master Liu and his cousin were a little darker than charcoal." Bai Ji couldn't help laughing, grinning and laughing, "Now that Master Liu is boasting about Haikou in public, no matter how ambitious his cousin is, he can only stop at concubines." ”
Hearing this, the corners of Fang Xu's lips were slightly hooked, he turned over slightly, put the tea cup in his hand on the table, and asked casually, "I asked you to check where Peng Xiuying came from, do you have eyebrows?" ”
Bai Ji's face was embarrassed, and he whispered, "I don't know what kind of big person she is, people have also found her, and the silver has been spent, but I can't find any news." ”
"I only know that she is from Wujia Village, Jiangling, and sent someone to the village to ask, and the first is fine, but as soon as the three words Peng Xiuying are mentioned, the people in the village have changed their expressions, and they say that they don't know each other."
Fang Xu's fingertips paused for a moment, and then he opened his mouth lightly, "Throw more silver into it, as long as the money is in place, there is no mouth that can't be pried open." ”
"Madame......" Bai Ji was angry, and he looked like he wanted to speak and stopped.
Fang Xu glanced at her and said softly, "If you have something to say, why do you want to spit it out?" ”
"The Peng family doesn't pose any threat to us, why should Madame spend a lot of money to check a small minion?" Bai Ji asked in a low voice with a worried face.
When Fang Xu heard this, he lightly hooked the corners of his lips, "Are you a small role when Peng Xiuying is a small character?" ”
Bai Ji was stunned, and subconsciously replied, "Could it be ......"
Fang Xu retracted his gaze, and his tone was flat, "If you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather, although Liu Chuanzhi said that his character is not good, but he also did not treat Sanskrit harshly, as soon as the Peng family came, he actually gave birth to the idea of selling his daughter for glory, if it weren't for the pillow wind, how could he change so much?" ”
Bai Ji was stunned and also reacted.
"This Peng is by no means a fuel-efficient lamp." Fang Xu lowered his eyes and said softly, "She wants to grasp the Sanskrit sound, and she also wants to see if I agree." ”
"I have a grudge, she deceived the people in the waiting house, and I will smash her field."
There is no other advantage, it is the protection of calves.
Bai Yiran nodded heavily, "Madame don't worry, even if she jumps out of the raw stone egg, the slave and maid will definitely find out which stone did the sin, and will never let the young lady be wronged in vain." ”
Fang Xu felt funny, glanced at her, and was just about to tease a few words, when he saw Su Zi hurriedly walking into the house.
Su Zi stood on his feet and called in a low voice, "Madam, the Duchess of Qi is here." ”
"Zhu Yan?" Fang Xu raised his eyebrows, and his tone was a little surprised, "What is she here for?" ”
Su Zi shook his head, his expression was serious, and he whispered, "The slave doesn't know, she doesn't have a fold, she only says that there is something important." ”
Fang Xu sat up straight and said slowly, "Please go to the front yard." ”
"Yes." Suzi turned around and walked out of the room quickly.

Zhu sat upright on the chair, folded his hands on his knees, hung his head slightly, and couldn't see his expression clearly.
"Duchess of Qi State."
Fang Xu's voice came from the front, and Zhu raised his head in a trance, his eyes falling on her bright and moving face.
Fang Xu smiled on his lips and looked at her quietly.
Zhu slowly got up and bowed his head politely, "Mrs. Yongcheng waits, I have admired my name for a long time." ”
Fang Xu sat down lightly, his eyes fixed on her, and his tone was gentle, "I don't know what is the important matter for the Duchess of Qi to come today?" ”
Zhu Shi smiled bitterly and lowered his head slightly, "I'm only a few months older than you, just call me Zhu Yan." ”
The title of the Duchess of Qi State, whoever loves it wants it!
Fang Xu's expression didn't move, even the smile on the corner of his mouth was exactly the same, and he stared at her, as if he was waiting for the next step.
Zhu Yan looked calm, took off the jade bracelet on his right wrist, put it on the table beside him, and said in a low voice, "This is what my father used to protect my life before I got married, and I will give it to you today." ”
"With this bracelet, you can take whatever the Zhu family's foundation is, and you can take it at will, without receiving a penny."
Fang Xu was stunned for a moment, and a hint of interest flashed in his eyes, "As the saying goes, no merit is not rewarded, Sister Zhu Yan has made a lot of money this time, and she should have encountered great difficulties." ”
Zhu Yan's expression paused slightly, and only after a while did he whisper, "I want you to help me...... Hugh. ”
"Hugh?" Fang Xu raised his eyebrows, his expression was surprised, "Sister Zhu Yan is going to take a leave of absence from the Duke of Qi Guo?" ”
Su Zi and Bai Ji behind him were also shocked, and they couldn't believe their ears.
"That's right." Zhu Yan raised his eyes and looked at it, his eyes were tenacious, "It's not Heli, it's Hugh." ”
Fang Xu Mo rubbed his fingertips, looked at her, and said softly, "Why?" ”
"Rumors are spreading in Beijing, how can they not reach you?" Zhu Yan smiled bitterly and looked stunned, "You know it in your heart, but you insist that I say it myself." ”
"Qi Chong and Duanyang have done a bad thing, everyone knows it, I have lost face and become the laughing stock of Beijing, why bother to entangle with him?"
"If it were an ordinary woman, I might still open the net and carry it into the mansion to be a concubine, but it is a princess, and she is still a princess who intends to rebel and disrupt the court!"
Zhu Yan held his forehead, and a touch of pain flashed in his eyes, "I married far away in the capital, and there is no one around me who can speak considerately, let alone someone to give me advice, now I really have no choice, so I have to come to look for you......"
Fang Xu looked at her with a bitter look on her face, and said lightly, "There is a vast sea of people in Beijing, why did Sister Zhu Yan find me?" ”
Zhu Yan pursed her lips, her fingertips trembled a little, "Half a year ago, the war king and his wife reconciled, which caused a sensation in the capital. ”
"Fang Lan is a courtesan in the capital, I have had a few encounters with her, she has a good temperament, but she is also weak, because she has nothing to do, she was squeezed by her mother-in-law, and she has also invited herself to leave the court."
"Who expected that the king of war would not allow it, and he was so angry that he suppressed the old princess's idea of divorcing his wife for his son, at that time, everyone was envious of Fang Lan marrying a good man, and the court was full of good words for him......"
Zhu Yan sighed lightly and shook his head helplessly, "On the day the two of them left, I also got Xin'er, I heard that it was the queen who rescued Fang Lan, but the queen has lived in the deep palace for a long time, if there is no one else to pass on the news, how can she know?" ”
"I knew early on that there must be your role here, if it weren't for you, Fang Lan would definitely not be able to escape from the wolf pit, I'm afraid that I would have to tie up the war king for a lifetime and be his shield in vain."
Fang Xu's expression moved slightly, and he looked at her for a long time before laughing softly, "Sister Zhu Yan believes in me so much, which makes me feel flattered. ”
"The emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, you are very smart, not only can you save Fang Lan, but you should also have a way to help me."
Zhu Yan bit her lower lip, almost pleading, "Please help me... As long as I can divorce him, I am willing to pay any price......"
