Yan Xiaohan satisfied, turned to the waiting Flying Dragon Guards: “Did you hear the Lord’s words? Take Young Master Fu away, give him a light beating, make him understand his mistake.”
Court officials familiar with the Flying Dragon Guard’s methods couldn’t help shivering, looking at Fu Ya with sympathy.
The Flying Dragon Guards, like tigers, seized Fu Ya and dragged him out.
The wedding feast had become a series of unexpected events, making everyone feel tormented.
The Flying Dragon Guard usually fabricated injustices and harmed the loyal with far more complex methods, but Yan Xiaohan had handled these two people and was now coming to claim credit, subtly hinting “quickly praise me”.
Fu Shen looked at him, half-smiling, his heart softening: “You’ve worked hard, my good helper.”
Yan Xiaohan’s gaze suddenly became deep.
Fu Shen didn’t know that his casual teasing would have consequences – soon, the commotion at the Jing Ning Lord’s wedding feast spread through the streets, and after oral transmission and speculation, it became “The damn Flying Dragon Guard insulted the Lord’s mother in front of him, beat his brother, and then forced him to praise their kindness!”
The farce ended, and the wedding feast continued. After sending away Qin and her son, everyone’s eyes turned to the only surviving Ying Guo Gong, Fu Ting Yi.
Unlike his father and two elder brothers, Fu Ting Yi had been weak since childhood, not suited to martial arts, spending his days reading behind closed doors, barely noticed, and not close to his family. When his brothers passed away and the Fu family needed someone to take charge, Fu Shen led the troops and bore most of the pressure, and only then did Fu Ting Yi calmly step forward to inherit the title.
After the Ying Guo Gong and Jing Ning Lord’s households separated, this seemingly transparent nobleman became even more reclusive, reportedly obsessed with immortality and alchemy, causing the entire noble house to gradually decline.
Because of the prominent family’s reputation, the public’s evaluation of this Third Master became somewhat harsh. They said that Fu Tingyi had no merits and only relied on being born into a good family—isn’t he seeking immortality? Maybe one day he’ll stumble upon something and ascend to immortality in broad daylight!
