Seeing Shangguan Fei fainting, Awan hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Fang Zilan's hand to feel her pulse, "This poison..."
Fang Zilan forced herself to stand firm and said, "I'm fine."
Awan grabbed her wrist and refused to let go, "I know I can't stop you. I will go with you through the mountains of swords and seas of fire."
Fang Zilan did not shake Awan away, but just sighed, "Have you thought about it? This place is no better than the capital. Without the care of the young master, even if you and I are dead, I'm afraid no one will come to collect the body."
"If you dare to go, I will." Awan said and quickly took out a porcelain bottle from his arms. "If you take one pill of this medicine, it should last for three days. In these three days, I will definitely be able to cure it." I want to remove the poison from your body and prevent the poison from taking effect. This level of poisoning can threaten you. Do you really think that I, Awan, am just a decoration?"
Fang Zilan took the porcelain bottle and said in a low voice, "Awan, thank you."
"If you really want to thank me, just clean up this mess quickly." A Wan said and gave Shangguan Fei some medicine. "I'll let this little bastard sleep for a few more days. You have to ask Vice Admiral Cao to keep an eye on him." .”
"I know." Fang Zilan nodded, got up and went out to the backyard to call Deputy General Cao, telling him to lock Shangguan Fei in her room and keep her alone. No one should know, especially Shangguan Linglan.
Although Lieutenant General Cao didn't understand the situation yet, he patted his chest loyally and reassured himself. Only then did Fang Zilan calm down and take Awan out.
It was dark when Fang Zilan and Awan went out, and the night watchman had just left. The surroundings of the mansion seemed extremely calm, but Fang Zilan's intuition told her that someone was watching them.
"Fang Zilan, I'm hungry." Awan pulled her sleeves coquettishly, "The wontons we ate yesterday were good, let's go there to eat."
"It's up to you." Fang Zilan touched Awan's head lovingly, "It happens to be not far from the house."
The two of them walked to the wonton stall they had visited yesterday. The stall owner was busy preparing to open the wonton stall. When he saw the two of them, he smiled happily and said, "Aren't these the two guests from last night? They came to eat at my stall so early today." Wontons?”
"Your wontons are good, my little sister likes them very much." Fang Zilan said, taking Awan to a seat, and ordered: "Bring two large bowls of wontons."
"Okay." The stall owner greeted and went to cook wontons.
"Fang Zilan, do you know where Lu Tang lives?" Awan chatted with Fang Zilan while waiting for the wontons.
Fang Zilan smiled slightly and said, "I don't know."
Awan was puzzled, "Then how do we find him?"
Fang Zilan still just smiled, "We don't have to look for him, his people will come to us soon."
"Why is this?" Awan frowned in confusion.
Fang Zilan looked at the stall owner who was serving wontons to the table and asked: "Staff, do you know Lu Tang?"
The stall owner laid out the wontons and said warmly: "Your Majesty, this is the right person to ask. The small wonton stall has been set up near Shangguan Mansion for more than ten years. There are no big or small things in Yanzhou City that I don't know about." of."
"Shangguanfu?" Awan raised his eyebrows.
The stall owner quickly changed his words: "Now it's the Fang Mansion. The Lord Lu Tang that the two guest officials asked about not only has a prominent family background, but is also famous for his love in the entire Yanzhou City."
The stall owner looked like he was selling his stuff, so Fang Zilan took out a piece of silver and put it in his hand.
The stall owner put it away happily, and then spoke again, "Do you two gentlemen know the owner of Jinxi Tower, Huo Sanniang? She was the oiran in Fireworks Alley more than ten years ago, and even Mr. Zhao Jinqian was hers. My benefactor, Master Lu Tang also fell in love with Huo Sanniang at that time."
"But I haven't heard that Huo Sanniang has ever married anyone?" Awan asked while eating wontons. The stall owner cheerfully answered her: "Master Lu Tang really wants to marry Huo Sanniang, but he comes from a well-known family. How could a woman with fireworks be allowed in?"
"Master Lu Tang, his family has been officials for generations. His father is a general under Master Shangguan Jing, and his uncle Lu Zhizhang is the inspector of Yanzhou. His status is no less than that of Master Zhong Yao."
"But he wanted to marry Huo Sanniang. He even asked an old lady from Shangguan's family to redeem her and her sister's lives, and the two of them joined Shangguan's family as maids."
"However, who would have thought that the son of Shangguan's old lady had forcibly kidnapped Huo Sanniang's sister. Huo Sanniang finally escaped. From then on, she became disheartened and vowed not to marry in her life. She opened Jinxi Tower and started a prosperous business. The water rises."
The stall owner said very sadly, but Fang Zilan listened with great interest, "You said that Lu Tang likes Huo Sanniang, so why doesn't he redeem her life himself? If he redeems Huo Sanniang and his sister himself, how can he cause trouble later? This disaster?"
"This..." The stall owner was speechless for a moment.
Fang Zilan continued talking to herself, "Besides, with the power of the official family, how could Huo Sanniang escape and open Jinxi Tower on her own? I think Lu Tang was helping behind the scenes. For the sake of the family, Otherwise, how can you call it a love story if you can't step forward when a person needs it most and only make up for it afterwards? To Lu Tang, this was just a romantic affair in his youth, but to Huo Sanniang, it was a lifelong affair. scars."
"My guest, your words are wrong." The stall owner shook his head in disapproval, "Master Lu Tang had no choice but to do it, otherwise, what man can watch his beloved woman being bullied?"
"No one knows the pain until the knife hits them." Fang Zilan slowly took a bite of the wonton, "Once you know it hurts, you will shrink back. No matter men or women, they are all selfish."
The stall owner was amazed, "This is the first time in so many years that I have heard someone talk about Mr. Lu Tang like that. It's really new."
"Fresh is fresh. I haven't said anything today." Fang Zilan raised her head and glanced at the stall owner. The stall owner nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, the wontons at the stall are said to be fresh by all the guests who have eaten them. Please treat me two guests." Use it slowly and don’t disturb the little one.”
"You are quite clever." Awan took a sip of the soup and lazily put down the bowl and chopsticks, "Bring me another bowl of wontons."
"Okay." The stall owner responded and turned around to cook wontons at the stove.
Awan looked at the back of the stall owner and smacked her lips with lingering thoughts, "Do you think that if Zhong Yao captures Huo Sanniang, Lu Tang will come to us to save Huo Sanniang?"
"Not only for Huo Sanniang, but also for himself." Fang Zilan took a spoon and stirred the wonton soup in the bowl. The clear soup became turbid under the influence of external forces, "Huo Sanniang's shady business, Who do you think is supporting her behind her back? The water is muddy and no one can clean it."
Awan looked hesitant, and even lowered her voice a bit, "But I remember the young master said that if the water is clear, there will be no fish, and no one is really clean."
