Ever since he was a child, he has always made mistakes. Hong Fang will always be punished more than Hong Mu. This is why he has always secretly resented Mr. Hong. It’s just that Hong Fang concealed all of this very well and never Let Old Master Hong discover any clues.
However, after experiencing the double blow of being dismissed and injured, Hong Fang's mood inevitably fluctuated.
"Fang'er, are you resenting me for being unfair to you and your elder brother since I was a child?" Old Master Hong sighed. "You always feel that because you are a bastard, I always treat you badly?"
"I don't dare." Hong Fang said duplicity.
"You are different from your elder brother. If I treated you exactly the same as your elder brother since childhood, you think you can still have the status and strength you have today. Your elder brother is the son of the Hong family. Even if he is a wimp, he will still be able to It is justifiable to inherit the position of Lord Marquis. But you are different, you are a bastard, and you can only rely on yourself if you want to rise to the top. I have seen all your hard work over the years, except for that incident back then. I am very satisfied with everything I have done." Old Master Hong stood in front of Hong Fang with his hands behind his back.
Old Master Hong stared at Hong Fang with far-reaching eyes.
These words of Master Hong fell into Hong Fang's ears, and he couldn't help but think a lot.
In my mind, like a fleeting image, the scenes of the past thirty years have been played back.
Yes, he is the bastard of the Hong family.
Hong Fang's mother is a foot-washing girl of Master Hong, and Master Hong has no feelings for her.
Before Hong Fang was full-term, his mother was forced to death by the main room of the chief house. Due to insufficient milk, Hong Fang was always weak and sick when he was young, and he hung out with the servants of the Hou Mansion.
But in secret, he studied hard in the cold window, stealing the unique skills of the Hong family.
When he was ten years old, he wrote a birthday poem at the Hong Mansion's family banquet and became famous in Hong Mansion.
Hong Fang asked himself, every step he took these years was perfect.
Only that one thing... The one thing that Old Master Hong and Hong Fang were talking about was Ye Huangyu's marriage to the Hong Mansion.
Hong Fang had feelings for Ye Huangyu.
At least, during the first year or two when he and Ye Huangyu met, he loved Ye Huangyu.
That's why he quietly married Ye Huangyu into the family, but he didn't expect that Old Master Hong would be so furious. He refused to recognize Ye Huangyu's identity, cut off all Hong Fang's money and income, and even affected his official career.
Hong Fang was very reconciled, he was not reconciled to the fact that his hard work for many years was all in vain because of a woman.
Just when Hong Fang was depressed, he met his current wife Zhuge Rou.
The appearance of Zhuge Rou made Hong Fang feel the position of power again, and he abandoned Ye Huangyu almost without any hesitation.
Afterwards, he married Zhuge Rou and gave birth to Hong Mingyue. Only then did he restore the father-son relationship with Old Lord Hong.
Everything that followed went smoothly, and he also dreamed of becoming the Prince and Taibao, a representative of both civil and military skills in the Great Xia.
"But this time, you really let me down." Old Hou Hong flicked his sleeves. "You secretly colluded with Liu Qing and united with Concubine Luo and the Crown Prince. These are all right, and the fault lies in the fact that you shouldn't underestimate the enemy, and the enemy can take advantage of it."
Hong Fang was terrified, he didn't expect that Master Hong had already known about colluding with Liu Qing.
"Don't forget, I handed over the Samana to you two brothers. Liu Qing is a dog that I raised with my own hands." The reason why Old Lord Hong stood by and watched the Samana's matter was because he thought that Hong Fang would make good use of the Samana. this knife.
Unexpectedly, the Samana was finally wiped out by a small ghost gate.
"If it wasn't for the agreement between me and that old Marquis Wu that neither of us should intervene in the power struggle in Xiadu, I would have wiped out that ghost sect long ago."
When Old Master Hong mentioned the ghost gate, he was also full of anger.
Only then did Hong Fang know that there was an unwritten agreement between Master Hong and Marquis Wu.
As the only two masters of the Five Paths of Reincarnation in Xiadu, Marquis Wu and Old Marquis Hong have always been rivals.
With the strength of the two of them and the power in their hands, if they really fight fiercely, there will definitely be a bloody storm above the court, and the Great Xia Kingdom will definitely be affected.
So twenty years ago, Marquis Wu and Lord Hong made an agreement that neither Marquis Wu nor Lord Hong could use force unless Great Xia suffered a catastrophe comparable to the destruction of the country.
This rule has been in use for twenty years.
It also indirectly made peace and balance between the nobles and civilian forces in Xiadu and even the entire Great Xia for twenty years.
But this time, due to Hong Fang's mistake, the prince lost power, and this balanced situation was also broken.
"Father, I know my mistake. This time, it was because I miscalculated that I was defeated by that little bitch Ye Lingyue. I decided to personally..." Hong Fang hadn't finished speaking.
"Are you going to deal with a junior yourself? Hong Fang, you're going back as you live. You plan to do something to a little girl in Xiadu. Do you really think that behind her is just a small blue mansion?" Hong Old Hou Ye said angrily.
"Father means that there is Marquis Wu behind her, and even the civilian power of the entire Great Xia?" Hong Fang broke out in a cold sweat from being frightened by Old Master Hong.
If Marquis Wu is angered, with Marquis Wu's violent temper, he will definitely turn against Hong Fu.
"You still have some brains. But Ye Lingyue is not in the limelight now. She just attracted the attention of Marquis Wu and the civilian forces, and she is far from becoming a leader. This person must be eliminated, but why? Removal, and whoever removes it is all knowledge." With a flick of the sleeve of Old Master Hong, something fell into Hong Fang's hands.
When Hong Fang looked at the letter in his hand, his eyes suddenly lit up.
"This time, although you have been removed from the post of Taibao, it may not be a bad thing. At most three days, this letter will be delivered to the Holy Master, and you will definitely be reused by the court. This is the last time I will give you Opportunity, if you still can't handle it this time, from now on, don't even think about inheriting the Marquis Mansion." After Old Master Hong said, there was no one left.
Just as Old Master Hong said, only a few days later, the crown prince Tai Bao Hong Fang, who was originally ordered to be dismissed and fined, was quickly reused.
A few days later, an urgent letter was sent to Xiadu.
"Beast riots occurred in the northwest area of Daxia, and many cities in the border defense were vacant. The border requested the central government to send troops to support." As soon as the news reached Daxia Chaotang, Emperor Xia immediately summoned Hong Fang into the palace to discuss important border affairs overnight. Also going was the newly appointed General of the Army, Lan Yingwu.
After two full days and two nights, Lan Yingwu returned to Lan Mansion.
The spies all night made a gentleman like Lan Yingwu look haggard, with a round beard stubble on his face, and resentment in his eyes.
