The Evil King's Favorite Concubine: Genius Perfumer

Chapter 226
"Are you saying they're smart or stupid?"

Han Rui shook his head and said, "If it wasn't for that attack...we wouldn't have noticed what they were doing at all."

"I guess, Uncle Tang and the men in black are in a cooperative relationship, and they are not a group of people at all."

Taking another sip of tea, Fang Shaobai's thoughts became clearer, and he gradually outlined the whole outline of the matter.

The story started in the distant capital, oh, it started when Fang Xuezhen accidentally married two wives.

Mrs. Wen is the daughter of the Minister's Mansion. From the fact that she refused to follow her into Deling City and would rather follow her son to live in the south of the Yangtze River, it can be seen that she has always been brooding over her loss of her official wife status.

It is impossible for this obsession not to affect her only son Fang Zhijun, otherwise Fang Zhijun would not make a big fuss in his family when the coffin of his birth mother returned to his hometown-it is definitely not an ordinary fuss, otherwise how could Fang Shaobai like Fang Shaobai make a fuss? Can the younger generations hear about it?

From Fang Shaobai's point of view, this second grandfather, Fang Zhijun, has a deep resentment towards his family, at least twice as much as his mother's, double the resentment.

One is that she hates her mother for losing her status as a royal family. In order for Fang Zhijun to become a son-in-law, she has to be recorded under the name of the Jin family she hates the most.

The second is to hate his father for "driving" him out of the capital. In Fang Zhijun's eyes, his father simply wanted to sacrifice his son for his official status!

Since both the father and the family want to "disappear", he wants to make a "career" to let them know that he is no worse than the eldest brother of the family!

If he can't inherit the Fang family's family business, he will earn the family business himself!
Thus, Fang Zhijun, the second master of the Fang family, embarked on the path of corruption and crime - this is also Fang Shaobai's own analysis, and it is estimated that the truth is almost inseparable.Because colluding with pirates is not only a capital crime, but also a serious crime of exterminating the family. People who have a little affection for the family can't do it!

"The right time and place", Fang Zhijun really accumulated some wealth through shady means.Under heavy blows from the imperial court, many corrupt officials fell from their horses. He shrank in time and became a fish that slipped through the net.

At this time, Fang Zhijun was getting old and not so rebellious anymore, so he hid his ability and bided his time and went home to retire, and cut off contact with the pirate group.

Fang Zhijun had a good plan, but it is not easy to die so cleanly.He had a good death, but the Fang family in the south of the Yangtze River has not been able to get rid of the shadow of colluding with pirates.

According to Fang Shaobai's analysis after integrating the data, Fang Zhijun's eldest son, Fang Zhengcai, suddenly came back with a large fortune and two sons to "recognize his ancestors and return to his clan". Instigation of pirates.

Fang Shaobai is not very clear about the current situation of suppressing bandits in the south of the Yangtze River, but he reckons that the rumors must be tight there, so the shady wealth of the Fang family in the south of the Yangtze River cannot be hidden.

"The dozen or so carts of things hidden in the other courtyard are probably not just yellow and white things." Han Rui nodded.

If it is purely gold and silver property, it will not be a big problem to be found out. At this time, there is no so-called "crime of unknown source of huge property".

Fang Shaobai agreed: "There should be many exotic treasures stolen by pirates. These things are more eye-catching in the south of the Yangtze River, so they are not easy to sell... They want to send them to the inland for storage, and slowly find someone to ship them for exchange." into gold and silver."

Those men in black should have come here recently to protect property.It is also possible that they have found a buyer here recently and are going to distribute the shipments—or the same sentence, they have not caught anyone, and they still cannot fully grasp the other party's plan, so they can only rely on guesswork.

Fang Shaobai continued to analyze that the attack that day should have been an explosion of resentment from his uncle Fang Zhengcai who had accumulated extreme resentment towards his family.

Mrs. Wen hated her family, and Fang Zhijun, the second master of the Fang family, inherited her hatred, and then passed this hatred on to her eldest son, Fang Zhengcai.

In the few months since he returned to Deling City, Fang Zhengcai lived in seclusion with his two sons and rarely had contact with his family.The family grows out of various complex psychology, and they will not insist on coming.

But it was during these "reclusive" days that Fang Zheng gradually realized the influence of the Fang family in Deling County and even Yujiang Mansion, and he hated the family who had taken away their orthodox position even more.

"You know, I'm the only son in my family..." Fang Shaobai said helplessly, "The siblings are still young."

The arrival of this group of powerful men in black gave Fang Zheng a whimsical new plan - if Fang Shaobai is kidnapped, the family will definitely be in chaos, right?By tying Fang Shaobai, he can also lure all the elders of the Fang family into the trap of "buying hostages" one by one, killing and maiming them one by one!
"Why didn't they directly attack uncle?" Han Rui asked.

The uncle he was talking about was naturally Fang Shaobai's father, Fang Zhengkai, who is now the patriarch of the Fang family.

"Because it's too eye-catching. But more importantly..." Fang Shaobai smiled wryly, and said, "You also know that my father has hardly been out of the house in the past six months, and his illness is quite troublesome."

Fang Zhengkai suffered from gout last year, and it was difficult for him to walk. He has been inviting famous doctors from all over the world to treat him, but for the time being, there is no effect.However, his problem only affects his walking, not his brain, so Fang Zhengkai still sits firmly as the head of the Fang family and no one dares to touch him.

I don't know that Fang Zheng has been planning in secret for a few days, but the arrival of Han Rui and the fact that he and Fang Shaobai went out to play in the city are obviously the reasons why Fang Zheng actually implemented this plan.

Those men in black who came to "do big things" were unwilling to work too hard for Fang Zhengcai's "private affairs" and expose themselves, so they temporarily recruited bandits from neighboring counties to Fang Zhengcai.

Who would have thought that Fang Shaobai is really gentle and can be caught at any time, but Han Rui, who is proud and fleshy, is a master who hides his secrets and can defeat everyone with one man?

One or several men in black were hiding in the forest. When they found out that the bandits failed in their kidnapping operation and were instead captured by Han Rui, they immediately took the opportunity to wipe out all the bandits.

"If you were simply kidnapping me, and you, who are highly skilled, were only my guard... those men in black would probably still send reinforcements. But your identity prevents them from doing so."

For some unknown reason, those men in black did not want to get too involved in the kidnapping of a young prince.

Therefore, they didn't make a move in the end, although they might not necessarily be able to be targeted.

"Now I can figure out that those bandits will be silenced." Han Rui said.

The people in black will not let the captured bandits confess them, they have "more important things" to do.Once the government knows of their existence, Deling City will not allow them to come and go freely!
"They didn't enter the city first, so it should be..." Han Rui also took a sip of his tea and moved the corner of his mouth: "Go to the bandits' lair and kill all the remaining bandits."

In order to erase the traces of their existence, the men in black really took great pains.But it's not as good as the sky, those men in black were still found by Han Rui when they entered the city in the middle of the night!
