Chapter 473 Breaking In
Fang Zilan and Chu Bin waited in front of Pei Mansion for a short time, and saw Zheng Yan and the soldiers arrived. At almost the same time, Mo Han and Fang Lihui came.
"Master Fang." Fang Lihui bowed in a hurry, and Fang Zilan signaled that he didn't have to be too polite. Just as he was about to explain a few words, he heard him speak first: "The general situation Mr. Mo has explained to me that no matter what happened, I will bring Tongmei out today, otherwise what kind of face will I have to see the prime minister's uncle again in the future?"
"I feel relieved when Mr. Fang said this." Fang Zilan ordered Zheng Yan to call the door.
At first, the Pei family did not pay attention to the uninvited guests outside the door. However, due to their huge formation, as more and more people watched, the Pei family had to open a crack in the door to ask about their purpose.
When he heard that Fang Zilan and Fang Lihui were about to see Fang Zitong, the Pei servant who was hiding in the crack of the door quickly closed the door, and a loud bang shattered the words behind Zheng Yan.
Seeing this, Zheng Yan turned around and looked at Fang Zilan, and heard her sing, "Please listen to everyone in the mansion. This is the last chance. If I don't open the door, I will have to break in to confirm the safety of everyone in the mansion."
She did not deliberately mention Fang Zitong, but instead acted like she had been staying in the house after the death of Duke of the Kingdom of China. She was worried that something might happen to someone, and in a hurry, she had to make such a bad move.
Needless to say, her high-sounding appearance and rhetoric scared many onlookers. Although they knew that Fang Zilan could not "kindly" care about the life and death of the Pei family, the Pei family's sneaky and secretive behavior is indeed suspicious.
If Fang Zilan could really ask to open the Pei Mansion gate, wouldn’t she be able to get a glimpse of the truth? So someone immediately started to make a commotion and asked the Pei family to open the door.
Seeing that the trouble was getting worse and worse, the Pei servant had no choice but to open the door and invite Fang Zilan and Fang Lihui in. As for the others, they were all turned away.
Fang Zilan glanced at the closed door, exchanged glances with Fang Lihui, and then followed the servant into the hall.
The road from the front to the hall was deserted. The white silk and silk flowers had already been hung, but there were not many sobs in the mansion, which was rare for even people. The entire Pei family seemed to be in a strange silence.
"Please wait, you two." The servant respectfully asked Fang Zilan and Fang Lihui to sit down, and then turned and left.
After a while, Pei Poming's wife walked in, met Fang Zilan, and greeted Fang Lihui.
Fang Zilan looked at her for a moment and saw that she was haggard and had no energy. She was thin and thin like paper cuts. Her robes looked much wider and covered her body empty.
"Two..." Pei Poming's wife wanted to say a few more greetings, but Fang Zilan interrupted her without hesitation, "Madam Pei, Mrs. Fang and I came today to express our condolences to see the Duke of the Kingdom of China."
Pei Poming's wife heard Fang Zilan's implied that it was obvious that Fang Zitong was right and wrong. She couldn't help but turn her face off and forced a smile and said, "Mr. Fang, my sister-in-law is too sad and can't afford to get sick. It's really inconvenient to come out to meet her. Please forgive me."
"Mrs. Duke of the Kingdom of China is sick?" Fang Zilan frowned slightly, "Since that's the case, Mr. Fang and I have entered Pei's mansion, how can we not visit us?"
Pei Poming's wife's face froze, "Both are foreign guests, so it is really not suitable to enter the inner courtyard. There are many women in the back house..."
"I'm a woman too." Fang Zilan intercepted her words and said unquestionably: "If Mrs. Pei doesn't want Mr. Fang to enter, he can stay here. I'll go to visit Mrs. Yu."
Fang Lihui nodded in cooperation and said, "Mr. Fang's words are reasonable, so I'll wait for Master Fang here."
Pei Poming's wife was stunned. Before she could be dissuaded, she saw Fang Zilan get up and walk out of the hall. She hurriedly chased after her, "Mr. Fang must not..."
"What can't be done?" Fang Zilan stopped and said sternly: "As a major minister of the country, he is inferior to ten thousand people. But after his death, all the Pei family members hide their cover up, and even the Duke of the Duke of the Kingdom is not seen by others. Where is the intention?"
"I..." Pei Poming's wife opened her mouth, but couldn't say anything. She could only watch Fang Zilan break into the backyard before she remembered to call someone.
The servants of the Pei family could not stop Fang Zilan at all, and allowed her to find Fang Zitong who was dying next to Pei Qingqing's coffin in the Pei family ancestral hall.
"Madam Duke of the Kingdom?" Fang Zilan squatted down and put her on Fang Zitong's shoulder, helped her up, and checked her.
There was no obvious external injury on Fang Zitong's body, and it was more like the weak caused by lack of water and food. Seeing this, Fang Zilan felt relieved, put her arm on her shoulders, and drove her out of the ancestral hall.
However, as soon as Fang Zilan took Fang Zitong out of the ancestral hall, she was surrounded by servants of the Pei family. An old woman stood in front of them under the support of Pei Poming's wife and said angrily: "What is Lord Yue doing?"
"What are you doing? I should ask Mrs. Pei this way." Fang Zilan snorted coldly, "If I hadn't been here today, how would Mrs. Pei plan to deal with Mrs. Prince of the Kingdom?"
"How to deal with this poisonous woman Fang Zitong is a vicious woman who murders her husband is all about the Pei family and has nothing to do with Lord Fang." Mrs. Pei was justified, but Fang Zilan laughed out loud, "Mrs. Pei, let alone the wife of Duke of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the People of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the People of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the Kingdom of the People
"Master Fang, you..." Mrs. Pei was so angry that she trembled all over. Fang Zilan said in a stern voice: "Today I want to take away Mrs. Prince of the Duke of the Kingdom. If Mrs. Pei feels that it is inappropriate, please invite Lord Xu of Jingzhao Yinfu to come and let us talk about it."
"Master Fang..." Pei Poming's wife couldn't help but speak, but Fang Zilan did not give her a chance to speak, and said with a sharp expression: "Get out of the way."
Everyone in front of him was unmoved, and Fang Zilan curled her lips and smiled contemptuously, "Mrs. Pei, do you think this can keep me?"
"Mr. Fang, the Pei family has no intention to keep you, but sister-in-law must stay." Pei Poming's wife stood up and said with a stern tongue: "According to the laws of the Great Jing, it is essential for women who lose their husbands to stand archways to keep their integrity, otherwise..."
"What else?" Fang Lihui's voice passed by everyone, less cynicism and more majestic as the head of the family.
Pei Poming's wife bit her lip and plucked up her courage to roar, "The Fang family will not only be fined a large amount of money, but also..."
"Silver money?" Fang Lihui laughed as if he had heard something funny. "We Fang family's silver money, we would like to set up ten archways for each of your Pei family. Who cares about the one in your Pei family?"
"Fang Lihui, you bully people too much!" Pei Poming's wife's face turned blue, and she wanted to say something else, but she saw Fang Zitong leaning on Fang Zilan's body awake and hurriedly called "sister-in-law".
As proud as Fang Zilan, I have to sigh that Fang Lihui is really rich and generous
