Fang Zilan saw Su Yun waiting in front of the prison door from a distance. She walked forward and said politely: "Master Lao Su, you have been waiting for a long time."
Su Yun didn't say anything, but just raised his hand in a gesture of invitation. So Fang Zilan stopped being polite and walked in first. Su Yun followed her and walked in together.
The two of them were silent all the way until they were in the cell where Mo Bin and Mo Yang's father and son were imprisoned. Su Yun had just dismissed the jailers when he heard Mo Bin ask eagerly: "How is Han'er doing now?"
"After tonight, you will be safe and sound." Fang Zilan had no expression on her face. She looked at Mo Bin and said, "General Mo, after what happened now, do you still have nothing to explain to me?"
Mo Bin concealed his anxiety, avoided her sight, and whispered: "Master Fang is aware of everything. I have nothing to explain."
"King Rong'an colluded with the pirates. General Mo not only sat back and ignored it, but also went into seclusion to protect himself and treated the lives of the people as nothing." Fang Zilan's expression became darker every time he said a word, "General Mo has neglected his duty to this extent. Can he be considered guilty?"
"Master Fang only thinks that my father is in seclusion for self-protection, but he doesn't know that if this were not the case, the people of Mushan Pass would not be able to be saved." Mo Yang argued unconvincingly: "My father knows that he only cares about one thing and not the other, and there is no perfect plan. , this can only be the case under balance."
"That's the only way?" Fang Zilan raised an eyebrow, "In the capital, King Rongan is not the one who has the final say. Your father and son neither reported to the capital nor asked for help from General Xiahou, who is closest to Mushan Pass. , If you don’t do anything, how can you have the face to say that you can only do this?”
"Going to the capital to report a message?" Mo Yang laughed suddenly, "I'm afraid our message won't be able to enter the capital at all, and it will be intercepted by King Rongan's people halfway. We also need to ask General Xiahou for help, which is easy to say. , but how can General Xiahou care about the life and death of my Mo family?"
Fang Zilan's expression was as calm as water, "Have you tried it?"
"What?" Mo Yang was stunned when she asked him, and he just listened to her talk, "Without any attempt, all possibilities were rejected. No wonder he ended up in this situation today."
Mo Yang bit his lip, "So what if I try? You already know the outcome, no matter how many times you try, you can't change it."
"Standing on one's laurels and stubbornness." Fang Zilan concluded her words simply and neatly, her expression suddenly turned cold, "In that case, there is nothing more to say. Tomorrow morning, I will enter the Mo family ancestral hall and change Mo Han's name from the Mo family's ancestral hall. Erased from the family tree. Except for Mo Han, everyone in the Mo family was executed."
Su Yun didn't say anything, but took a deep look at Fang Zilan. After she finished speaking, she ignored Mo Bin and Mo Yang's reactions and turned around to leave the prison.
Su Yun followed her, and after an unknown amount of time, he suddenly said, "If Mo Bin and his son had asked General Xiahou for help in time, I'm afraid they wouldn't have fallen into such a dead end."
Fang Zilan kept walking, "Master Su, do you think General Xiahou will help Mo Bin and his son?"
"General Xiahou may not help Mo Bin and his son, but he will definitely protect the capital." As soon as Su Yun finished speaking, he saw the people in front of him stopped, "Those who guard the border must put the mountains and rivers in their hands forever. The first thing. Mr. Su understands this very well."
Her expression softened slightly as she spoke, "Mo Han once told me that Mo Bin and Mo Yang are both very principled people. I don't deny Mo Han's words, but I just feel that their principles are too petty, and there is really no such thing as a border guard general." Style.”
"Not everyone is as willing as Lord Fang." Su Yun raised his eyebrows and raised his lips, "I'm very curious, why does Lord Fang insist on protecting Mohan?"
"Mo Han is my cousin, my only relative in this world." Fang Zilan said frankly, and then changed the topic: "Master Su, after the Mo family is dealt with this time, I will also accept the matter of King Rongan's collaboration with the enemy and the country. It won't be good. If you regret it, you might as well leave now, otherwise if you are not careful in the future, you may lose your life in this southeastern realm with me."
"Regret?" Su Yun seemed to have remembered something and chuckled: "Does Mr. Fang know that Your Majesty originally wanted Mr. Zhuge to be a special envoy to come to the southeast?"
Fang Zilan smiled slightly and followed his words and asked, "Then why is Mr. Su the one who came in the end?"
"Just because I told Your Majesty that I will never condone Mr. Fang's misbehavior like Mr. Zhuge did." Su Yun smiled meaningfully, and Fang Zilan looked innocent, "When will A Yu allow me to do such misbehavior?"
"It's only now that I understand." Su Yun looked a little helpless, "Master Fang is not someone who condoned his misbehavior, but did it wantonly. Unfortunately, I understood it too late, and it was too late to regret it. .”
"Master Su, are you afraid?" Fang Zilan looked joking. Su Yun shook his head, "As long as I don't confront Master Fang, it will not be difficult for Master Fang to spare my life in the chaos in the southeast."
"Master Su really knows how to judge the situation and make decisions according to the situation." Fang Zilan laughed dumbly, and a sly look flashed in Su Yun's eyes, "Master Fang is overly complimentary. After all, I am just a little censor. I want to save my life in a chaotic situation. It is inevitable to be dependent on others. Your Majesty values Mr. Fang, so I am naturally willing to risk my fortune and my life."
"Okay, Master Su, please help yourself." Fang Zilan calmed down, "I have to go take care of Mo Han."
"Master Fang." Su Yun stopped her as she was about to leave, "Just now Mo Yang said that the outcome of things that we already know cannot be changed no matter how hard we try. What do you think, Master Fang?"
Fang Zilan stopped again, but did not look back, "Nothing in this world is constant. If it must be said, only change is constant. I never believe in any ending, if there is..."
She paused, looked back with a bright smile and said, "The ending will also be decided by me."

After Fang Zilan returned from the government prison, she and Awan guarded Mo Han for most of the night. It wasn't until the sky dimmed and Mo Han's fever subsided that the two of them breathed a sigh of relief.
"Finally, there is no danger." Awan raised his hand and rubbed the center of his brow, "It seems that your medicine was cooked well and it is effective."
"I'm just trying to get started." Fang Zilan held her chin in her hand, looking tired, "The main reason is that little Awan has great medical skills."
"Come on, please stop complimenting me." Awan sat next to her, "While Vice Admiral Cao has not returned in the past few days, you should seize the time to recharge your batteries and think about how to deal with the pirates and King Rongan."
Fang Zilan hummed lightly and was about to say something when she heard Deputy General Cao's voice coming from the courtyard, "Boss, something happened!"
She couldn't help but be stunned for a moment when she heard the sound, then she realized what she was doing and quickly walked to the door and opened it. The moment I saw Vice General Cao, it was like an unreal illusion.
She asked subconsciously: "Old Cao, why are you here?"
