Chapter 327: Assassination

"Master..." Awan looked at the person in front of him in disbelief, tears streaming down, "Why are you..."

Wen Ya glanced at Awan in disgust, as if he would feel disgusted when he looked at it more. Awan took a few steps back timidly, tripped by the threshold, and ran out stumbled.

Fang Zilan looked at Wen Ya and said without comment: "Do you have to do this?"

"Fang Zilan, I said that you shouldn't know, so don't ask more questions." Wen Ya stared at Fang Zilan coldly, "Since you have agreed to me, don't forget your promise. If you can't treat Awan well, I will take your life."

Fang Zilan raised her eyebrows, "Wen Ya, are you threatening me?"

"It's not a threat, it's a warning." Wen Ya said sinisterly: "You can give it a try and see if I can take your life."

Fang Zilan looked at Wen Ya thoughtfully. Before he could react, his hand had already pinched his neck, "You have the nerve to warn me in this way?"

Wen Ya didn't say anything, but just looked at the person in front of him, "Let go and take a look."

Fang Zilan let go of her hand, and a purple mark appeared in her palm. She was surprised, "What is this?"

"Miss Fang, no matter how capable you are, don't fight with an evil doctor like me, who is full of poison." Wen Ya relaxed his expression, and still looked gentle all day long. "If you want to kill someone, it's best to use the plum sword."

He said and stuffed a pill to Fang Zilan, "I used a secret technique at the beginning of the forging of the Mei Jian. Although it is not considered as invincible by all poisons, it is enough to protect you from the safety of ordinary poisons."

Fang Zilan looked down at the pill in her hand, and Wen Ya smiled slightly, "Why, are you afraid that I should have any medicine I shouldn't have?"

"I'm not such a villain." Fang Zilan swallowed the pill without hesitation and asked, "So, you really can't escape my offensive just now?"

"Miss Fang, what expert can avoid your offensive?" Wen Ya said in a low voice: "You look down on me too highly."

"Is that right?" Fang Zilan's doubts had not dissipated. Her move was not fast, and she had less than 40% of her strength. Not to mention a master, as long as someone with some martial arts skills, at least she could react. But Wen Ya was powerless. Is his skills extremely ordinary? If this were true, he wouldn't have listened to the conversation between her and Awan in the yard before. If he hadn't been prepared, then the scar in front of him would have been deliberately for her to see it?

Seeing that she was still suspicious, Wen Ya couldn't help but say, "I am proficient in medicine and poison, and I am enough to protect myself, and I don't need any powerful martial arts."

"Are you really poisonous?" Fang Zilan asked suspiciously, and Wen Ya looked like she was letting her try.

Finally, Fang Zilan waved his hand, looking afraid of him, "Forget it. But don't say I didn't remind you, after this incident, Awan must hate you."

"How many people hate me? No bad..." Wen Ya paused almost suddenly and said resolutely: "No bad one is Awan."

"This little girl Awan is so pitiful..." Fang Zilan tskated, and Wen Ya's face darkened, "Did you say enough? If you say enough, go chase Awan."

Fang Zilan decisively closed her mouth and quickly chased after her. After a while, she saw Awan twitching and crying in the corner of the wall, like an abandoned puppy.

"Awan." Fang Zilan walked closer and squatted beside Awan, "Don't cry anymore, let's go home."

Awan cried fiercely and said angrily: "My master doesn't want me... where does he come from?"

"Fang Mansion is your home." Fang Zilan stretched out her hand, "I am your family."

"You will lie..." Awan glared at Fang Zilan, looking pitiful with swollen eyes, "I don't believe it..."

"It doesn't matter if you don't believe it." Fang Zilan's hand was still stretched in the air, and the corners of her lips curled and smiled softly, "Just know, I will take care of you and protect you, that's enough."

A Wanshun was so angry that she said after a while: "Is it almost time for a curfew?"

"Yes." Fang Zilan nodded, and Awan put his hand on her palm, "Let's go back."

Fang Zilan stood up and led Awan back to the house.

Soon Fang Mansion was approaching, but there was an urgent sound of horse hooves behind the two.

Hearing the sound, Fang Zilan looked back and saw Xiahou Zhang pulling his horse and stopping not far behind her, saying aloud: "Master Fang, Your Majesty has an order to summon you into the palace."

Fang Zilan was stunned for a moment, "Why are you so anxious?"

Xiahou Zhang remained silent, and Fang Zilan looked a little serious, "I'll go to the palace with you now."

After entering the palace, Fang Zilan headed straight towards the imperial study room. Xiahou Zhang followed her and guarded the door as usual.

"Your Majesty." Fang Zilan was about to salute, but was stopped by Li Shengxuan. "No need to be polite. I have summoned you to the palace, so I have something to ask for advice."

"Ask a question?" Fang Zilan's heart tightened, "Your Majesty wants to ask, just speak, I must know everything."

"You don't have to be nervous." Li Shengxuan smiled, "What I want to ask you is the ghost gate."

"What did Your Majesty say?" Fang Zilan suddenly raised her tone, and Li Shengxuan repeated the word "Ghost Sect" slowly.

Fang Zilan calmed down and tentatively said: "Dare you ask Your Majesty, how did you know about the Ghost Sect?"

"King Rong'an was assassinated a few days ago, and the assassin was a member of the Ghost Sect." Li Shengxuan said lightly, "These are all written by King Rong'an himself in the newspaper."

Fang Zilan was shocked and thought about his words, and he became scheming in his heart, "Does Your Majesty have doubts about the assassination of King Rong'an?"

"The assassination of King Rong'an is true." Li Shengxuan said leisurely: "However, King Rong'an did not catch the assassin, but he was sure that the assassin was a member of the Ghost Sect. Moreover, he wrote a letter to the court, and he did not mention what the Ghost Sect was. His attitude was ambiguous and intriguing."

"Your Majesty really knows nothing about the Ghost Sect?" Fang Zilan's eyes were deep, and Li Shengxuan asked without answering, "What do you think?"

Fang Zilan took a deep breath, "Your Majesty knows what the Ghost Sect is, so he will summon me into the palace, right?"

Li Shengxuan didn't say anything and seemed to have made a promise. Fang Zilan continued: "The Ghost Sect was originally the secret guards of the previous dynasty. Later, the previous dynasty was destroyed and gradually became a killer organization. As long as someone bids money, anyone in the Ghost Sect can kill."

Li Shengxuan was very interested, "Including me?"

"It's all rumors in the world, who knows whether it's true or not?" Fang Zilan said vaguely: "The Ghost Sect has indeed killed many people in recent years, and it is also a terrifying existence in the world. But the world is the world after all, and people in the world never get involved in the temple, let alone assassinating a prince rashly."

Li Shengxuan curled his lips and smiled, "You just said that as long as someone bids for money, anyone in the Ghost Sect can kill him. What if someone really bought the Ghost Sect's killer to assassinate King Rong'an?"

"It's not that there is no such possibility." Fang Zilan pondered for a moment, "But assassinating King Rong'an is not a price that ordinary people can pay."

"Two possibilities." Li Shengxuan curled his smile, "One is that the killer of the ghost gate attempted to assassinate King Rong'an, and the other is that King Rong'an directed and acted in this assassination scene."

He paused, looked at Fang Zilan and said, "But no matter which possibility, the Ghost Sect cannot escape. What is the reason behind this?"

Fang Zilan: There will definitely be nothing good when you enter the palace, you will have a headache...
