But she was still very curious, so she couldn't help asking: "How did Rong Chengjin... escape from that cliff?"&1t;/p>

She once asked Rong Chengjin in person, but he did not answer her.&1t;/p>

"He didn't escape." Dongfang Hao answered calmly.&1t;/p>

Fang Yan was shocked by this answer. She always thought that Rong Chengjin must have thought of some way to escape the cliff in advance. Otherwise, how could he survive from the fire without any damage?&1t;/p>

Dongfang Hao stopped, looked into her eyes, and said, "He buried himself. Although he was not burned by the fire, when I found him, he was already suffocated and unconscious, and he woke up all day and night."&1t;/p>

He said it lightly, but Fang Yan's heart seemed to be covered with a layer of wet fog, which became a little heavy.&1t;/p>

In fact, she should have guessed that since those people were determined to set fire to the mountain, even if it was an isolated cliff, they would never give him a chance to escape.&1t;/p>

If he had chosen to escape from the cliff at that time, he would have been afraid that the crossbows hidden on the hill would easily kill him.&1t;/p>

He was able to find a glimmer of life in that desperate situation, but he suffered a lot.&1t;/p>

"I learned that you were imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice, he went to the palace as my identity to meet the emperor overnight. No one knew what he had said to the emperor. As for what happened later, you already knew everything." Dongfang Hao said this, and continued to help her move forward, as if he was just telling her the process and did not care about her reaction.&1t;/p>

He seemed to say nothing, but he said everything.&1t;/p>

At least, those words have caused quite a stir in Fang Yan's heart.&1t;/p>

From the previous conversation between Rong Chenghe and the emperor, she could guess what Rong Chengjin had said to the emperor, but did he really not doubt her at all? If it were him, he would have wanted to kill him, so how could he plead with the emperor in person?&1t;/p>

At this moment, she found that she didn't understand Rong Chengjin at all, because she couldn't see through him at all.&1t;/p>

However, Dongfang Hao in front of her also puzzled her.&1t;/p>

"If I didn't understand the mistake, you want to tell me how good Rong Chengjin is to me, right? But you just said you like me, what do you want to express?"&1t;/p>

"Yes, that guy is not very likable at some point." Dongfang Hao's tone was a little different from his previous cynicism. He seemed to have a hint of helplessness, entanglement, or something else. He was very conflicted and sighed: "But who called him my best friend?"&1t;/p>

Fang Yan still didn't understand, so she didn't answer.&1t;/p>

"I don't want you to be hurt anymore, but at the same time, I don't want to see you hurt him anymore." Dongfang Hao said so.&1t;/p>

Now Fang Yan understands.&1t;/p>

This incident ultimately originated from her. Rong Chengjin almost died of a fire, which led to the later King of Wisdom's desperate bets and rebellion in the trapped city.&1t;/p>

At present, Rong Chengjin probably cannot escape the inheritance of the throne. Then he will become the emperor in the future, and his safety will become more important to many people.&1t;/p>

Dongfang Hao said so much, just telling her that no matter what she had done to Rong Chengjin, Rong Chengjin never thought of hurting her, and could even protect her at all costs.&1t;/p>

Even if she wanted him to die, he would still protect her to the end.&1t;/p>

No matter what the reason for him to do this, it at least shows that she is very important to him.&1t;/p>

Although Dongfang Hao likes her, he can never sit still and watch her hurt Rong Chengjin.&1t;/p>

After understanding these things, Fang Yan felt less and less at ease.&1t;/p>

Because she knew clearly that the more Rong Chengjin cared about her, the more he meant that he was bound to win.&1t;/p>

He can give up everything he has, even his life, but it is just for a possibility that may not exist at all.&1t;/p>

That possibility is called Mu Liqiu.&1t;/p>

"Then, you may be disappointed." Fang Yan's footsteps paused at the place where the carriage was parked outside the palace gate, looking at him, and said, "It's not me who has always dominated all this, but him."&1t;/p>

Dongfang Hao seemed to have expected her to react like this, but he was not surprised, but instead smiled a little deeper and said, "Maybe, there is always a way to do both."&1t;/p>

Fang Yan said in surprise: "What method?"&1t;/p>

Dongfang Hao didn't want to continue talking and said, "Let's get on the carriage first, and I'll tell you later."&1t;/p>

I didn't sleep much last night, so Fang Yan wanted to go home early to rest, so she stopped asking and got on the carriage with him.&1t;/p>

On the carriage, Dongfang Hao did not say anything to her, but allowed her to lean against the wall of the carriage for a short rest.&1t;/p>

The sound of weapons and swords could no longer be heard on the street. It seemed that the verdict had come to an end. Even the brave people began to go out to check the truth, whispering about the past few days. Fang Yan did not listen carefully, and I don’t know how long it took, when the carriage stopped, the Yunwang Mansion had arrived.&1t;/p>

The carriage walked through the side door, went straight into the mansion, and stopped at the intersection to Tangliju.&1t;/p>

The scenery in front of you is very familiar, but there is a little strange. The green shade seems to be more lush. The crabapple has faded, but the fragrance of lotus flowers faintly floats in the air, making people feel relaxed and happy.&1t;/p>

Fang Yan remembers that there was a lotus pond in front of Rong Chengjin's bedroom. I think the pond was already full of beautiful flowers at this moment.&1t;/p>

No one knew she would come back today, so naturally no one would welcome her.&1t;/p>

When Dongfang Hao helped her into Tangliju, several maids were busy lighting the lights. When he heard the movement, someone looked back.&1t;/p>

Then, there was a scream.&1t;/p>

"What's the matter? The master is not here, don't even have rules?" Shuyu's slight reprimand came from the room.&1t;/p>

"Master..." Several girls in the outer courtyard noticed Fang Yan at the door at this time. Although it was getting late and Fang Yan was in a mess at this time, everyone still recognized her at first sight.&1t;/p>

After a moment of shock and stunned, the few people hurriedly put down their work, couldn't help but come forward happily and kowtowed to Fang Yan, saying, "Please pay tribute to your master."&1t;/p>

Shuyu in the room heard the sound and rushed out. Looking at the excited expression, she seemed to have no idea what to say for a moment. However, her eyes were very fast. Seeing that Fang Yan was injured, she hurriedly came forward to support her. She asked Dongfang Hao with some anxiety, and said, "Sir, is it important for my master?"&1t;/p>

Seeing their faces was really happy. Although Fang Yan was a little surprised, she suddenly felt a sense of warmth when she went home.&1t;/p>

She has lived in the mansion for less than two months, and she has never planned to live here for a long time, so apart from Xiangming and Shuyu, she is not familiar with the maids and servants of Tangliju, and she can't even call out their names.&1t;/p>

But unexpectedly, they really regarded her as their master.&1t;/p>

Fang Yan never thought that these people were sent by Rong Chengjin. From the moment they came to Tangliju, they were considered hers, and they naturally shared honor and disgrace.&1t;/p>

Although there were so many things happening in the meantime, these servants could see clearly that Rong Chengjin not only attached great importance to her, but also to her. Therefore, even though Fang Yan had no background, Tang Liju still felt that she had hopes with her, so she naturally looked forward to her coming back.&1t;/p>
