That night, Yuan Youyuan was very drunk and confided a lot of his inner thoughts to Mu Feng.
Only then did Mu Feng realize that Yuan Youyuan had been born with a fat body since he was a child, and he was the one least liked by his father among his children.
Later, he showed strong talent in martial arts, and Yuan Yangwei was forced to change his mind, but he still didn't like him.
Otherwise, it would be impossible for Yuan Yangwei to assign Yuan Youyuan to the most remote Shengchao branch because of Yuan Lai's words.
As we all know, the Holy Dynasty ranks last among the eight ultimate powers. Its foundation and wealth are not as good as those of the other seven ultimate powers. Therefore, the branch here is naturally not as good as the other seven branches.
Mu Feng did not expect that Yuan Youyuan would have such a frustrating and miserable life in his childhood.
Mu Feng silently drank with Yuan Youyuan until the latter got drunk and lay on top of the table.
Although the powerful Emperor Wu was already very human, it was difficult to get drunk with ordinary drinks and he could completely eliminate the alcohol from the body, but Yuan Youyuan was depressed and deliberately sought to get drunk, so he got drunk directly.
"Hongni! Take care of him!"
Mu Feng stood up, walked out of the door, called the oiran Hongni, gave her a few instructions, and left the wing.
At this moment, it is ugly time.
Even the lively Wanhua Tower has become quiet, with only a few wing rooms still with lights on, and laughter and laughter coming from inside from time to time.
The lobby on the first floor, which was originally a lively and bustling singing stage, now became deserted and deserted.
Suddenly, Mu Feng's eyes fell on the corner of the singing platform. A beautiful figure stood quietly in the darkness, with a pair of clear eyes shining in the moonlight, looking at him silently.
The two did not communicate, but just stared in silence for a while.
Zhan Ruxue gently held the guqin in her arms, walked up to the stage, elegantly placed it on the stage, and gently played with the strings with her bare hands.
The melodious and clear sound of the piano came from the singing platform, spreading like invisible water waves, adding a unique charm to the silent night.
Mu Feng silently listened to the sound of the piano, closed his eyes slightly, and admired it quietly.
He keenly discovered that Zhan Ruxue's piano sound was less desolate and more high-spirited.
To his disappointment, after the breakthrough, Zhan Ruxue's piano music no longer touched his realm at all.
But listening to the sound of Zhan Ruxue's piano, Mu Feng could not help but feel at peace, and his whole body would gradually relax.
"Brother Mu is so elegant!"
A chuckle came from behind Mu Feng, and Yuan Lai came to the railing next to Mu Feng, swinging a folding fan gracefully.
Xi Yusheng followed Yuan Lai respectfully, looking at Mu Feng teasingly, with a mocking smile on his lips.
Mu Feng turned to look at Yuan Lai, then looked at Xi Yusheng, and said calmly: "The young master is really good at using me as a breakthrough point, and in a few strokes he disintegrated the group of people that Brother Yuan worked so hard to win over!"
Xi Yusheng said proudly: "The young master has a clever plan and a perfect plan! Mu Feng, you'd better not think about going against the young master, otherwise the end result will not be good!"
Mu Feng no longer paid attention to Xi Yusheng, but looked at Xi Yusheng who was leaning on the railing on the right, and said calmly: "Young master came to me late at night, did you just want to mock me?"
Yuan Lai smiled gently and said: "Rice?
How could I do such boring things?"
As he spoke, Yuan Lai turned his eyes to the singing platform and changed the subject: "Miss Zhan has been waiting for you in the hall for a long time. Until now, it seems that she is waiting for you! She is a very arrogant woman. She was and is waiting for you.
It's rare to come out and play a piece for you in person!"
Mu Feng's face was expressionless, but his eyes looking at Zhan Ruxue's figure became much softer.
"Miss Zhan is arrogant even in success and failure! If she hadn't been so arrogant back then, she wouldn't have ended up like this, and she would have become the most popular oiran in Wanhua Tower and even the entire Donglai Kingdom."
Yuan Lai was quite emotional.
"Master, do you know what happened to Miss Zhan back then?"
Mu Feng asked curiously.
When Liu's mother talked about Zhan Ruxue's incident, she always kept it secret and avoided it. Mu Feng only knew that Zhan Ruxue suddenly fell into a coma while playing piano music a year ago.
Since then, Zhan Ruxue has become seriously ill, and strange scars have appeared on her face, almost disfiguring her, as if she had been cursed.
Mu Feng knew that what happened to Zhan Ruxue would not be so simple, but the matter was very secret, as if it was some kind of taboo, and even Yuan Youyuan didn't know about it.
Although Mu Feng was curious, he didn't have to know.
He and Zhan Ruxue had met by chance, and for the sake of his breakthrough after listening to the music, he had secretly asked Yuan Youyuan to use his influence to get the people behind Wanhua Tower to take care of Zhan Ruxue.
Even though Zhan Ruxue is still the lowest geisha now, her monthly salary is actually several times more, and she was also informed that she can move out of the woodshed to another remote but better place to live.
However, Zhan Ruxue is indeed very arrogant. She does not accept these preferential treatment at all. She still lives in the woodshed. And of the extra money, she will only take the part she deserves, and return the excess.
"A year ago, Miss Zhan fainted while playing the guqin, and I was at the scene! She offended someone she shouldn't have offended, and that's why she ended up where she is now!"
Yuan Lai sneered.
Mu Feng remained silent, but secretly wrote down what Yuan Lai said.
Yuan Lai, however, couldn't hold back his anger and asked, "Brother Mu, aren't you curious about who Miss Zhan offended?"
"Could it be that if I ask, the young master will tell me?"
Mu Feng asked rhetorically.
Yuan Lai was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly and said: "Interesting! Brother Mu, you are really an interesting person!"
"Young Master came here in person to chat with me about these boring things?"
Mu Feng said calmly.
The smile on Yuan Lai's face gradually faded, and he said in a deep voice: "Brother Mu! There is not much time left before the inheritance battle! All the people my second brother has recruited have been dispersed, and it may be difficult to recruit more!"
"Now you still have a chance to join my camp, and I don't need any help from you! After I get the right to inherit, I will promise you an important position in the Four Seas Trading Company. If you follow me, you will get great benefits."
Yuan Lai looked directly at Mu Feng, with pride flashing in the depths of his eyes. In his opinion, Mu Feng had no choice but to turn to him if he wanted a good future.
This is also part of Yuan Lai's plan. What he values is Mu Feng's talent and potential. If he recruits Mu Feng and trains him well in the future, he will definitely be able to give him a lot of help.
Of course, the premise must be that Mu Feng is obedient enough, otherwise, he doesn't mind using some means to make him completely surrender.
These are what Yuan Lai is thinking about. How to deal with them specifically is to wait for Mu Feng to submit to him and then he will train them carefully.
