Chapter 1075 Seizing Power 2

One day passed, and on the second day, Fu Hongda got up as usual and went to the old man's room.

But from a distance, he saw Fu Hongtian wandering around outside the yard, with a sly look on his face, and peeking into the house from time to time.

"What are you doing?" Fu Hongda asked sharply, raising his voice.

Fu Hongtian was startled by the sound behind him. He turned around and saw that it was his fourth brother. He immediately came up to him happily and said, "I heard that the hairpin from yesterday was given to the fourth brother instead of taking it to Guyunzhai." Sister-in-law, that hairpin is of good style, and it will look very beautiful when worn by the fourth sister-in-law. I wonder if the fourth sister-in-law likes it?"

Fu Hongda frowned, feeling that this person was weird: "So what if you like him, so what if you don't like him?"

Fu Hongtian looked around mysteriously, and then took out something in his arms, this time it was a jade bracelet: "This bracelet..."

"Don't buy it." Fu Hongda said nothing and walked inside.

Fu Hongtian hurriedly caught up and said: "Fourth brother, this time is definitely the last time. I collected this bracelet and took it back. Although it is not an ancient relic, it shouldn't be worth much, but Fourth brother, you think it's worth it." Does the pattern look like the word "Lu"? When I first saw this bracelet, I thought it must be worn by our fourth sister-in-law. This is custom-made for our fourth sister-in-law. Fourth brother, my good fourth sister-in-law. Brother, just, just..."

Fu Hongda's face was calm, and he was very irritated by being stalked by Fu Hongtian: "Why are you so short of money? You come to my place to resell things every day. Fu Hongtian, have you forgotten your identity?"

"Fourth brother, I don't want to, but..." Fu Hongtian didn't dare to tell the real reason. He only dared to be vague. In the end, he didn't dare to say that he was selling the bracelet. He only said that it would be given to his fourth sister-in-law, but he asked to borrow five dollars. Thousand taels of silver.

Fu Hongda was angry: "No!"

But Fu Hongtian refused to give up: "Fourth brother, if you don't borrow it, I will really die. Fourth brother, good fourth brother, just this time, the last time, fourth brother..."

Being pestered and unable to do anything, Fu Hongda had a cold face and finally agreed: "This is what you said, the last time!"

Fu Hongtian nodded quickly and stuffed the bracelet into Fu Hongda's arms.

Fu Hongda held the bracelet and ordered people to get the silver.

After Fu Hongtian took the money and left, Fu Hongda said to Ah Fu, the boy next to him: "Follow me and have a look to see what's going on."

Ah Fu took the order and chased Fu Hongtian out.

Fu Hongda entered the old man's yard. The old man was still awake. He went into the inner room to take a look, but found that the old man's face was red and his lips were blue. He hurriedly touched the old man's forehead. He was shocked by this touch.

"Someone's coming."

His voice was urgent, and the servant waiting outside the door quickly ran in.

"The old lady has such a fever, haven't you noticed any of them? What are you doing for food!"

The servants were stunned for a moment and hurriedly looked over. Sure enough, they saw that the old man had something wrong with his face. They were all frightened and turned pale, shouting to accuse him.

Fu Hongda frowned and scolded: "What are you still calling for? Go call the doctor!"

The servants were busy and dispersed in a hurry. Fu Hongda had to roll up his sleeves and come forward to wipe the old man's face, and hurriedly sent someone to deliver a message to Fu Hongmei and the others.

After a while, the doctor came. After taking a pulse and confirming the diagnosis, he said that he had caught a cold at night, and because the old man was weak, he had a fever.

I was prescribed medicine and said that all I needed to do was reduce the fever and rest, but I couldn't blow the wind for a while.

Fu Hongda wrote them down one by one. Fu Hongwang also came over in person. He asked the doctor carefully and confirmed that there was nothing serious about the old man. Then he patted Fu Hongda on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work. Thank you for your hard work these days." You take care of it.”

Fu Hongda said hurriedly: "Anyway, the eldest, second and third brothers are all busy. I have the most free time in the house. If my father is not good, I will take care of him first."

Fu Hongwang sneered: "I remember that at the beginning, Hongtian was waiting for the enemy with you, but I haven't seen anyone in the past two days."

Fu Hongda had no choice but to cover up for Fu Hongtian: "He has some small business outside, the cost is small, he always has to keep an eye on it..."

Fu Hongwang knew that Fu Hongda had always been conniving with Hongtian, so he didn't say anything else. He just said: "There are still some official matters in the yamen, so I will go back first. You can worry about it here."

After sending Fu Hongwang away, Fu Hongmei and Fu Hongshi also sent people over after a while. They asked about the situation and found out that the condition was under control and that there was no serious problem, so they went back.

By noon, Ah Fu came back with explosive news.

After hearing Ah Fu's report, Fu Hongda could not suppress the shock on his face: "Ms. Zhang? Brother's concubine?"

Ah Fu nodded repeatedly and said in a low voice: "The Fifth Master is being targeted. I don't know where those people got the news. He intercepted the correspondence between the two. He started blackmailing the Fifth Master every day from a few days ago. , the fifth master gave away all the money in the house, it’s not that I borrowed it from you because I ran out of money.”

"Lao Wu is actually desperate!" Fu Hongda said this, and told Ah Fu: "Don't make this matter public. When Fu Hongtian comes back, let him come to me."

Ah Fu took his life.

When Fu Hongtian returned home in the evening, he knew that his fourth brother was looking for him, so he immediately came over.

Fu Hongda called Fu Hongtian into a separate room and asked Ah Fu to guard the door to make sure there were no ears on the wall. Then he slapped the table and scolded: "Fu Hongtian, you are getting more and more courageous." Got it!"

Fu Hongtian was stunned. He didn't know what Fourth Brother meant, but his expression was panicked: "Fourth Brother, you... you are talking..."

"You are really capable of seducing your elder sister-in-law and messing around in the backyard? Are you afraid that your elder brother will tear you alive?"

When Fu Hongtian heard this, his legs suddenly became weak with fear. He knelt down with a plop and begged for mercy one after another: "Fourth brother, my good fourth brother, how did you know about this? Fourth brother, you must not tell the elder brother. You must not!”

"Are you afraid now? Have you thought about the consequences before doing something? Have you used your brain?"

"It's not me..." Fu Hongtian was sweating profusely and his eyes were red: "It was that woman who seduced me. She was the one who deliberately talked to me. It was her..."

"Then the two of you colluded together to get a fake contract and asked the elder brother to seal it and make it real. You made tens of millions of profits from it. Was it she who forced you to do it?"

"This..." Fu Hongtian was really panicked this time. He didn't know how Fu Hongda knew about his fake appointment, but his mind was spinning quickly. Since the fourth brother called him to this small house, After speaking, he retreated, naturally not intending to expose him to the public. With this confidence, he calmed down, moved over on his knees, lay on Fu Hongtian's legs, and hugged him: "Fourth brother, if you can forgive me, If you let me go this time, my life will be yours. Whatever you say will be yours. I will do whatever you ask me to do. Fourth brother, please let me go this time. Fourth brother..."

Fu Hongda narrowed his eyes and chuckled: "What should I do with this damn life of yours?"

Fu Hongtian rolled his eyes and began to beat his fourth brother's legs. He said while beating: "Over the years, when talking about the Fu family, who doesn't mention the three elder brothers? Otherwise, the eldest grandson Ziyan is also mentioned. But who knows, in such a big Fu Mansion, all the profits of the shops are all managed by you, Fourth Brother. How can the Fu family prosper? Do they really rely on those official salaries? Those salaries are useless, and they are not enough to fill the stomach. ! The main expenses of the house depend on the fourth brother's income, but no one sees the efforts of the fourth brother. Even my father always treats the fourth brother as a housekeeper. Fourth brother, I To be honest, I, Fu Hongtian, am nothing, I am a bastard, I am not successful enough, but I am more likely to fail, but I have a fourth brother, who takes care of me, and I repay my kindness, so I will say something bold today If so, Fourth Brother, have you ever thought about it, since the whole family's money depends on you, is choking on this money the same as choking on the lifeblood of the entire Fu family?"

There was no need for Fu Hongtian to explain these basic principles. Fu Hongda remained silent, waiting for Fu Hongtian to continue speaking.

Fu Hongtian continued: "The old man is seriously ill. In fact, no one can say anything about illness, especially at such an old age. Why don't fourth brother take this opportunity to seize the power of the family in one fell swoop?" ?”

"Absurd!" Fu Hongda scolded: "The power of the family? No matter how smooth the power of the family is, it should be handed over to the eldest brother. What is my business?"

"It's not easy..." Fu Hongtian raised his head and glanced at his fourth brother.
