Chapter 916 Guard
Author: A certain purple doesn’t eat coriander
"How long can they live?" Fang Zilan interrupted Awan in a deep voice, "Half a year? Or three months..."
"A month at most." A Wan's voice was trembling, and Fang Zilan's eyes turned red, "Is there no other way?"
Awan bit her lips and shook her head. Seeing this, Fang Zilan took a deep breath and strode out of the village.
"Fang Zilan, what are you going to do?" Awan quickly chased after her and grabbed her sleeve, "If they know the truth, there is no guarantee that they won't put all their efforts into it. What will happen to you then?"
"Are you going to let me do nothing and just watch them die?" Fang Zilan deliberately lowered her voice, but could not hide the anger in her words.
"If I can die with peace of mind, what if I have been kept secret all this time?" A Wan increased his strength in his hands and said without hesitation: "They are born for the ghost sect and die for the ghost sect. They have no choice but to do it. What if..."
"A Wan!" Fang Zilan held A Wan's wrist and stopped her unfinished words, "But how innocent are the villagers in Taoyuan Village? Just because the ghosts are ruthless, do they have to be dragged to death together?"
"But..." Awan was so anxious that she was about to cry, "I really can't save them!"
At this moment, Fang Zilan suddenly understood that Awan's words, which seemed to be deceiving herself, were actually just looking for excuses for herself to feel at ease.
How could Awan not know that the villagers in Taoyuan Village were innocent? But she couldn't save them, so she could only close her eyes and listen, and put all the blame on Guimen instead of her own powerlessness.
"A Wan, if you can't save it, don't save it." Fang Zilan held A Wan's shoulders with both hands and said seriously: "You are a medical woman, not a fairy. There are many incurable diseases in the world. You just have to do your best to obey fate. There is no need to take care of them all.
On myself."
Awan sniffed, "I know, but once I tell the truth..."
She did not continue, but Fang Zilan understood clearly, "Now that things have happened, they have the right to know the truth. As for what will happen in the future, none of us can say."
"I'm afraid they will fight to the death when they are so angry. Your health has not been well. How can you survive?" Awan couldn't help crying. Fang Zilan wiped her tears and comforted her in a warm voice: "The soldiers will stop the water."
Tubai. Don't worry, I can still endure it."
Awan wanted to say something more, but Fang Zilan calmed down and said word by word: "Before I see Mr. Su Heng, I will not fall down no matter what."
Awan pursed her lips and summoned up the courage to say, "I will accompany you to explain the situation to them."
"No need, I'll just go alone." Fang Zilan raised her hand and rubbed the top of Awan's hair, "If it's as you said and they get angry and take action, I can easily handle it."
"Dong Guo Guo?" Fang Zilan raised his eyebrows, and the man kneeling on the ground shook his head like a rattle, "No, it's Lord Pei Pening..."
His voice was very soft, but Fang Zilan still heard it clearly. She threw away the person in her hand and said coldly: "Lead the way."
"Lord Fang, we know our mistake!" Several people knelt down and kowtowed, but Fang Zilan remained unmoved at all. "You are unwilling to lead the way. Are you waiting for me to go to Duke Jui to ask for your guilt?"
Before anyone could react, Fang Zilan called out to Zheng Yan, "Go to the Jingzhao Yin Mansion. Please come to Mr. Xu and go to the Duke of Jui State Mansion with you."
"Yes." Zheng Yan took the order and left, and everyone around him was talking about it——
"Is it Mr. Pei Pening again? I heard that he just married a concubine and entered the house last month. Why would he rob someone from the Duke of Yue's mansion?"
"Shh, keep your voice down. The concubine that Mr. Pei just married was stolen from him. I heard that the girl was already engaged, but the man's family was beaten to death, so he had to break off the engagement..."
"Oh my god, is there such a thing in the capital?"
"That guy is the younger brother of Duke Jun. He has never done anything bad. Fortunately, Mr. Pei is standing behind him. Otherwise, he would have died many times..."
Fang Zilan felt uncomfortable in her heart as she listened, but soon she realized something was wrong. At some point, the focus of everyone's discussion became that Pei Pening had offended her this time, and she would definitely seek justice.
Justice? She actually didn't have this idea, she just wanted to get Cong Rong back. After all, although she had been at odds with Mr. Pei for a long time, she had no intention of breaking out.
The Pei family has Duke Jun, the Empress Dowager, and the people involved include King Yucheng Li Qiyou, and the current wife of Duke Jun, Fang Zitong. She does not want to be an enemy of them.
In other words, she didn't want to be their enemy just for Cong Rong.
Thinking of this, a wry smile escaped Fang Zilan's lips. Back in the Wind River Valley, when Li Shengxuan didn't say a word about the deaths of people around her, she had been angry and unwilling to belittle human lives to whitewash peace, but now she has become
Got this look.
Xu Youtong, Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture, arrived very quickly. When Fang Zilan arrived at Pei Mansion with him, he was followed by a group of people watching the excitement. Pei Jueqing was so angry at this fight that he simply claimed to be ill and asked Pei Pening to go alone.
Clean up the mess.
Pei Pening bit the bullet and invited Fang Zilan and Xu You into the mansion. He immediately ordered people to send away the people surrounding the door of the mansion, and then scolded the servants around him as if he was launching an attack.
The servant took all the charges, claiming that in order to please Pei Pening, he committed the evil act of raping a common girl into the house without his knowledge.
Qiu Shui wanted to say something more, but Fang Zilan took the lead and said, "Miss Qiu Shui, what do you mean by your words, do you not want me to agree to it?"
"I..." Qiu Shui opened her mouth and suddenly smiled, "What Mr. Fang said is exactly what the Queen expected."
Fang Zilan was stunned, and the smile on Qiu Shui's face became brighter, and she said: "The Queen said that even if she didn't help this time, Lord Fang would help the second young lady without hesitation."
Fang Zilan bit her lip and said unnaturally: "Yes, all my money has been invested in the Fang family. It's okay if I don't help."
"The Empress also said that Lord Fang will definitely say that he was forced to do so because of his wealth." Qiu Shui looked like he had known it for a long time, and Fang Zilan snorted, "What else did the Empress say?"
Qiu Shui suppressed her smile and said seriously: "My Lady also said that Mr. Fang is somewhat similar to the Second Miss. Neither of them are frank people, but they have a very good heart."
Fang Zilan said coolly: "I can't even count how many lives I have taken on my hands. How can the Queen think that I have a good heart?"
"These are the queen's original words." Qiu Shui looked at the person in front of him steadily, "There is one more sentence."
Fang Zilan motioned for her to speak quickly, and she came closer and said, "My Majesty said, the Fang family will always be Mr. Fang's supporter."
