Chapter 265
The man pondered for a moment, then nodded: "Okay, then I'll go back and talk to the Lord. When will you be free, Young Master?"
"Tomorrow, anytime tomorrow."
"Okay, I will tell the Lord." After finishing speaking, the man left.
When the man walked away, Ming Fang asked, "My lord, are you going out today?"
"Don't go out."
"Then why did you ask them to come back tomorrow?"
Lu Xiaoxiao showed a treacherous and cunning smile, and replied mysteriously: "The secret must not be revealed."
"..." Ming Fang was silent.
Although he doesn't know what's going on, he can assure you that the woman in front of him is smiling treacherously, and someone is going to be in trouble.
But who is going to be unlucky, he doesn't know.
"Come with me."
"where to?"
"The Fang family."
The home of the Fang family is in the suburbs to the west of the capital.
The main family of the Fang family lived with the current head of the Fang family, his 5 sons, 16 grandsons and 8 granddaughters. In addition, there are some collateral relatives who have a good relationship with the main family, as well as a group of elders enshrined by the Fang family.
Super families such as the Fang family and the Anyang family have been passed down for thousands of years. Although every time there is a fierce family war for the position of the head of the family, after thousands of years, the population of these families has also decreased. It has developed to a rather dire state. Even if there are not tens of thousands, there are still thousands of people.
Except for the direct bloodline of the Patriarch, the rest of the offshoots had to move out and set up a new family. And their descendants, after unremitting efforts, good ones can enter the Fang family's ancestral business and become managers, but bad ones can only become general odd jobs or even subordinates. What's worse, they can't even touch the Fang family's property, so they can only fend for themselves outside.
So every generation, they are working for the welfare of their descendants.
Although the competition for the position of Patriarch is cruel, it follows the principle of the jungle, survival of the fittest.
And the reason why the aristocratic family has survived thousands of years is because of the countless competitions and killings.
Because the battle for the head of the family is too cruel, the family has formed an unwritten rule to pass the throne from generation to generation. In other words, the position of the Patriarch of this generation will not be passed on to his son, but to his grandson.
It is said that the candidate for the position of Patriarch of this generation is Fang Hongwen. Because he is all-rounder in Wenzhiwugong. It's no wonder that at the age of 20, he has already become the young owner of Jingxing Auction House.
No one can compete with Fang Hongwen's ability.
But in fact, according to Lu Xiaoxiao's understanding, Fang Hongwen also has an older brother. They are all from the same lineage, and they are better than him in everything, whether it is martial arts or martial arts. It's just that it suddenly disappeared in recent years, and I don't know what happened.
After Lu Xiaoxiao and Ming Fang changed their appearance again, they handed over the token that Fang Pengkun had given her to the guards of the Fang family.
Although he just asked Fang Pengkun for a favor today, asking him to borrow something. But now Xiao Lu's reputation has resounded throughout Nanzhao, and he doesn't want people from the Fang family to find out that he has come to the Fang family.
Because she always remembered what Wuyan reminded her that day: The man Fang Pengkun brought for treatment was of unusual status.
Being framed and losing her fertility...
A Fang family member with no special status, would others frame him like this? Instead of killing him directly, but directly making him sterile, the speed of cultivation will also slow down accordingly, and finally he will die slowly.
Almost without thinking about it, the identity of that man is also ready to be revealed.
That's why she didn't want to be cannon fodder. Taking advantage of a small advantage, in the end it attracted quite a powerful enemy.
If she is just a person, don't be afraid at all. But there are so many people around her, so she will not provoke such a powerful enemy if she can.
Soon after the token was handed over, Fang Pengkun went out to greet him in person.
Looking at Lu Xiaoxiao, Fang Pengkun was a little puzzled: "You are..."
"Brother Fang is really free, staying at home in broad daylight."
After hearing the voice, Fang Pengkun laughed loudly, and quickly welcomed Lu Xiaoxiao in.
Before Lu Xiaoxiao felt that the Seventh Prince's Mansion was big enough and luxurious enough, but when entering the Fang family's stronghold, the visual shock was even more dizzying.
This is not so much a family as it is a sect.
No wonder the well-known Fang family set up their home in the suburbs, if they really set up their home in the city...
"By the way, Fang's family is bigger than the palace?"
Hearing Lu Xiaoxiao's question, Fang Pengkun laughed a few times, and said, "How can the palace be so big? Fang's family is only two-thirds of the size of the palace, and there are not tens of thousands of imperial guards here."
Lu Xiaoxiao was speechless.
Two-thirds of the area is repaid.
How many people live in the house of the Fang family!
But think about it, the change of dynasties and wars has never been able to wear down the confidence of the aristocratic family. For thousands of years, let alone the aristocratic family, even a big tree has an extremely huge root.
Thinking of this, Lu Xiaoxiao felt that it was still necessary for her to make more friends from aristocratic families. The power of the aristocratic family is really terrible, no wonder the dynasty has nothing to do with the aristocratic family.
Along the way, I heard someone calling Fang Pengkun the third master. Lu Xiaoxiao clasped her fists and said, "It turns out that Brother Fang is the third son of the owner of the family. It's really a good fortune for me to befriend Brother Fang."
Fang Pengkun shook his head when he heard this, "Brother is not the real third master in this mansion."
"Then they..."
"I am the third eldest in my family, so they call me the third master. But I am not the third master of the family. My father is the younger brother of the current head of the family. They have always had a good relationship, so I was able to walk in the family and even settled There is my mansion."
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded: "So that's it. In fact, it's good to be like Big Brother Fang. He has his own career, has a considerable reputation, and has such a close relationship with the head of the family. This is much better than someone who is in the midst of the competition."
Fang Pengkun smiled wryly: "Brother Xiao doesn't know something. This Fang family is so big and has so many interests. Even if you don't fight for the position of head of the family, you still have other interests to fight for. Where there are interests, there will be wars. Aristocratic families The wars in China are not at all calmer than the wars of your dynasty. After thousands of years, the entire Antarctic continent will probably be full of descendants of aristocratic families."
Lu Xiaoxiao nodded: "That's true."
"Brother Xiao's seven-apertured and exquisite heart must also understand. Otherwise, you wouldn't come here today in disguise."
"Hehe, I'm just a doctor. I'm a doctor with a parental heart. I just came to see the patients today. By the way, I would like to ask my elder brother to do a little favor. As for the struggle of the family, it's not something that ordinary people like me can get involved in. So when I go out today, I will do it with my heart in mind." It's better to save one thing than to do more, so I came here in disguise."
