Murong Fu pretended to be frightened and fell to the ground. Several flying stones did not really hit him, but just passed by him and hit the concierge behind him with a thud.
Fang Baihua snorted coldly, "It's really useless. How can a few stones scare you out of your wits?"
Murong Fu smiled coquettishly, "Miss Fang is very skilled in martial arts. I'm just a businessman, so naturally I'm not as bold as the girl!"
When Fang Baihua heard him say that she had great martial arts skills, she felt quite proud and said, "I heard that you are from Suzhou?"
Murong Fu stood up in embarrassment, bowed his hands to her and said, "My ancestors have been doing business in Suzhou for at least a hundred years!"
After hearing this, Fang Baihua asked with a hint of interest in her eyes, "Have you ever heard of the Murong family in Gusu?"
Murong Fu said calmly, "Is Miss Fang talking about the hometown of King Yan?"
"Exactly, exactly. Have you met King Yan himself?"
Fang Baihua came over excitedly.
Murong Fu took a few steps back, pretending to be scared, and hurriedly said, "We have met several times." ?.?????.???
"Then do you know each other?"
Fang Baihua continued to ask.
Murong Fu said, "Miss Fang is joking. The former King of Yan lived in isolation in Yanziwu in Taihu Lake. Others could not find his residence at all. I have only been lucky enough to meet him a few times. As for the current King of Yan, That is the emperor who founded the Kingdom of Yanbei and proclaimed himself emperor. I am afraid I will never have the chance to see him again. How can we be lucky enough to meet him?"
After hearing this, Fang Baihua couldn't help but be disappointed.
Murong Fu's heart moved and he asked tentatively, "Does Miss Fang want to see King Yan?"
Fang Baihua's thoughts were not as serious as those of her elder brother. She was a straight-tempered person. She immediately said angrily, "Who among the martial arts practitioners and ambitious people in the world doesn't yearn for a heroic figure like King Yan? I only hate the ignorant king and his incompetence, and frame up Zhongliang. Otherwise, if King Yan were still in the Song Dynasty, how could he allow those treacherous and corrupt officials in the court to harm the people like this?"
Murong Fu said, "Miss Fang's heroic ambition is not inferior to that of a man in the slightest. She is truly a woman who cannot be compared to men. I admire her!"
Fang Baihua snorted, and when she looked at him again, she felt much more pleasing to the eye.
"Since you have met King Yan, can you describe his appearance to me? Is he really as handsome and handsome as the rumors say, like a god descending into the world?"
Murong Fu thought to himself, does this little girl have any thoughts about him?
Although he loves beauties, there are already enough women around him. If the Fang Baihua in front of him was four or five years younger, he would be almost as old as his son. He would never have any idea.
Thinking of this, Murong Fu couldn't help coughing twice to relieve the embarrassment, and then said, "The King of Yan is indeed a dragon and a phoenix among men, and he is very handsome. It's just that heroes have trouble with beauties. I heard that King Yan has no less than ten darling wives and concubines. And all of them are as beautiful as immortals. In my opinion, although the girl is also of heavenly beauty, if she admires King Yan, I am afraid she will only be happy in vain!"
"What did you say!"
As soon as Murong Fu finished speaking, Fang Baihua kicked him, scaring him so much that he hurriedly hid behind him. Unexpectedly, Fang Baihua's other hand had already grabbed his collar, and her slender legs straddled the horse directly. Pushed him against the wall.
"You have the ability to say what you just said again!"
Fang Baihua stared at him with sullen expression on her face.
Murong Fu said hurriedly, "Miss Fang, I am speaking from the bottom of my heart! I don't know how many ladies in Suzhou I have met who admire the King of Yan like you do, but in the end, they will only waste time and become lovesick!"
When Fang Baihua saw that he was telling lies and was about to take action in anger, she suddenly saw that the person in front of her was just a helpless merchant. She had always believed in morality and finally endured it. After all, the other person was also trying to persuade her. It's a good intention, there's no need to get angry with it.
"Hmph, you can just tell me this. Don't ruin King Yan's reputation outside! This girl admires King Yan and hopes to one day become her teacher and learn martial arts. How can it be what you say? That kind of thing?"
Speaking of this, Fang Baihua couldn't help but blush. It was impossible to say that she had never thought about it. After all, didn't the girl Huaichun admire people like King Yan?
But now that King Yan has proclaimed himself emperor, it is already an existence that is beyond her reach. Therefore, Fang Baihua gave up this idea early. At the same time, she no longer thinks about being able to worship King Yan as her teacher. She only hopes to be able to do so in her lifetime. Once you see each other, you will be satisfied.
Murong Fu was obviously stunned for a moment after hearing this. Did I misunderstand my feelings?
"Baihua, are you fooling around again?"
At this time, Fang La appeared behind the two of them at some unknown time. Seeing the ambiguous posture of the two, he couldn't help but frowned and scolded.
Only then did Fang Baihua realize that she was too close to the other person. She quickly retracted her legs and took a step back. With a hint of unnoticeable shame on her face, she pretended that nothing happened and came to her elder brother's side.
"I didn't do anything, I just scared him!"
Fang La said displeased, "This is nonsense. Brother Wang is my distinguished guest. How could you be teasing me like this?"
Fang Baihua's mouth narrowed slightly, and she always felt that her eldest brother seemed like a different person after coming back this time.
"Brother Wang, my sister-in-law has been naughty since she was a child. If she has offended her in any way, I will apologize to you here."
Murong Fu straightened his expression and said, "Miss Fang is lively and cheerful. It was just a misunderstanding. It doesn't matter."
Fang La nodded, then stopped talking, and took Murong Fu to the backyard to visit the garden and talk about what he had seen.
Fang Baihua looked at the two people walking away, no longer interested in practicing, and followed them.
Murong Fu and Fang La used the pretense of visiting the garden, but in fact they were testing each other. After a verbal exchange, each other won or lost, and they both understood each other tacitly.
Fang La had already learned the news about the Wang family in Suzhou that Murong Fu said. The news was true. He was indeed the son of the Wang family and had just married the Bai family last month. The whole city of Suzhou knew that there was no way he could lie.
However, he should have dispelled his doubts about Murong Fu, but for some reason, he only deepened his doubts about Murong Fu's identity. It seemed that everything was too coincidental and too real, but it made people feel like they were seeing through the clouds. The sky is once again an illusion that is both real and fake, but also a dream.
At this time, looking at Murong Fu's leaving figure, Fang La felt more and more that the identity of the person in front of him was becoming more complicated and confusing, and people had to be on guard.
"Brother, what are you looking at?"
Fang Baihua looked curiously at Murong Fu who was leaving, then at her eldest brother, and couldn't help but ask.
Fang La came back to his senses and said to her, "Didn't I tell you to shut yourself up and think about your mistakes? Who told you to wander around in the garden?"
Fang Baihua said dissatisfied, "Unless you come to see me in person, who in the Fang family would dare to really lock me in the house?"
Fang La was really helpless towards this sister, but thinking about what happened tonight, he still said in a serious tone, "You are not allowed to eat tonight. Go back to the house and stay there, otherwise you won't have to follow me out in a few days!"
After hearing this, Fang Baihua seemed to have been held accountable for something, so she could only angrily step on her eldest brother and leave angrily.
