Chapter 274 Storytelling
"I won't leave." Cong Rong broke away from Fang Zilan's hand and knelt on the ground with a thud. "Deputy General Cao and Miss Awan did not come back with Lord Fang. I guess it was Lord Fang who arranged a place for them. If it weren't for the bad luck, Lord Fang would not be like this. Although I am humble and useless, I am not afraid of death. I must have to accompany Lord Fang until the end."
"What are you saying in the end, it's bad luck." Fang Zilan shook her head helplessly, reached out and pulled her up from the ground, "You are not in good health, the ground is very cold. Don't kneel around and kneel, what does it look like."
"Master Fang..." Cong Rong called her carefully, as if afraid that she would send her away.
"I said." Fang Zilan deliberately dragged his voice, "How can we, Fang Zilan, kneel down at will?"
Cong Rong grabbed her sleeve with surprise on her face. She sighed softly and said, "If you want to stay, stay, I won't stop you. But if one day you regret it, tell me."
"I will never regret it." Cong Rong was about to swear immediately, and Fang Zilan held her hand, "Okay, I'm hungry, let's go to have a meal first."
Cong Rong followed her step by step. After dinner, she sent Cong Rong back to her room, then went back to sit in the yard and looked at the moon and stars for a while. When she was sleepy, she went back to the house and slept until dawn.
The next day, Fang Zilan woke up, washed up and practiced swords for a while. After breakfast, she continued to sit in the yard to bask in the sun. She was afraid of boredom and specially picked up a book she had never read before. She flipped it slowly, passing the time page by page.
However, she didn't look for it for a long time and saw the butler running in excitedly, "Sir Fang, the person who delivered the food is here."
Fang Zilan put the book on the table, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, "The person who delivered the food is here, why are you so happy to do?"
The housekeeper was stunned and said, "Mr. Fang, didn't you say yesterday that you would change someone who could tell stories to deliver the food? Now the person who changed is here."
Fang Zilan choked on the tea, "I'll just change it. When will the imperial guards be so easy to talk to?"
The butler looked embarrassed and asked tentatively, "Will you see that person?"
"See. Everyone has come, of course I want to see you." Fang Zilan said, and said to the maid beside her: "You go and invite Miss Cong over and you will tell me the story."
The housekeeper watched her collect the book and put melon seeds and tea. He was about to say something and saw her looking up, "What are you still being stunned? Go and invite someone in."
The housekeeper walked out silently and brought the person in. When the two entered the yard, they saw Fang Zilan directing the servant to bring tables and chairs. The tables were placed in the middle and the chairs were surrounded, which made them stunned.
"This..." The person who delivered the food frowned involuntarily. He was originally the best storyteller in the capital. Yesterday, a military master came to his house and said that he was asking him to go to the Fang Mansion to teach. The reward was extremely high, but the conditions were strange. He had to dress up as the delivery person before he could enter the mansion.
Although the adults in the high gate and deep courtyard had some strange habits, this was the first time he heard about it when he heard about the story of people who delivered food. Now he was even hesitant when he saw this scene.
However, Fang Zilan did not give him any hesitation time. She pointed to the table and said, "That's your location. When everyone is almost there, you can talk. I agreed in advance, it's not about the story, but about the latest happenings in Beijing. You can prepare it first."
Before she finished speaking, the housekeeper pushed the man to the back of the table, "I'll wait."
"No, I..." The man wanted to say that he could only speak, but no one gave him a chance. The yard was busy and he sat all over the yard. His shiny eyes looked at him with guilt, so he had to bite the bullet and say, "If you want to tell me what's new in Beijing recently, it must be Mr. Fang Zilan and Lord Fang..."
Fang Zilan heard this and was choked by tea again. She coughed a few times and attracted the man's attention. He slowed down his tone and his voice lowered a little. He couldn't help but wonder, looking at the lady's reaction, could it be that he had heard of it? It's impossible. He just heard this from the restaurant yesterday. How could such a young lady who was in the deep boudoir have heard of it?
Cong Rong patted Fang Zilan's back while whispering, "Do you want to interrupt him?"
"No need." Fang Zilan calmed down and whispered: "Let him tell me and listen to what everyone outside said to me."
The man saw the two of them whispering, but he had never heard of him, so he immediately calmed down and told what he had seen and heard recently, what was the pirates in the southeast of the pirates, and the doctor of the Xiahou family made a wonderful move to cure the plague. It was so amazing that everyone was amazed.
As the story was coming to an end, a servant asked: "I heard that Mo Bin and his son, the guard general of Mushan Pass, will be escorted back to Beijing in the next two days. According to the teacher, Mo Bin and his son also worked hard when they were pacifying the pirates, so why were they escorted back to Beijing?"
"You don't know anything about this." The man deliberately kept it a secret and said mysteriously: "I heard that Lord Fang Zilan and Lord Fang fell in love with Mo Han, the youngest son of the Mo family, and made a name to study a book of the Mo family. This is why the Mo family is really a disaster."
As soon as he finished speaking, the people sitting around suddenly became quiet and their eyes were all on Fang Zilan. She calmly took a sip of tea, then looked at the man and said, "Sir, who am I?"
The man looked confused and shook his head and said, "I have never heard of the lady's name."
Fang Zilan reminded him with a smile, "This is Fang Mansion."
"I know." The man nodded, and then realized that something was wrong. The more nobles from Fang in the capital, he did not look at which Fang Mansion it was. Now that he thought about the military guards and women were in charge of the country, could it be...
When he was panicked, Fang Zilan's voice came quietly, "I am the Fang Zilan in the story told by the husband."
After she said that, she saw the man tremblingly and kneeling in front of her, "I don't know if you are Lord Fang. I have offended you just now. Please forgive me."
"Sir, please get up." Fang Zilan raised his hand to signal him to get up. He stood up tremblingly, bent his body and dared not stand up straight.
"Mr.'s story is well told." Fang Zilan said leisurely: "But I have a question, please help me solve my doubts."
"Please speak by Lord Fang." The man lowered his head and heard her ask, "As soon as Mr. Xiao said that when he was talking about the wonderful hands of the Xiahou family's doctor, he mentioned that Prince Rong'an's daughter, helped make medicine, what's going on?"
"This..." The man looked hesitant and did not dare to speak. Fang Zilan said in a fury: "Sir, even if you tell the truth, I will not make things difficult for sir."
