Fang Zilan looked at Ouyang Zirou with a smile. She felt a little embarrassed, "Master Fang, do you think I talk too much?"
"I don't think so." Fang Zilan's smile became even brighter, "I just think Miss Ouyang is cute."
"Cute?" Ouyang Zirou's eyes widened, like a frightened deer, "Master Fang, please stop teasing me." She waved her hands as she spoke, not believing it at all.
"I'm serious." There was a hint of helplessness on Fang Zilan's face, "If Miss Ouyang is free in the future, please come and talk to me more often. After all, I am really bored while recovering from my injuries."
"Okay, it's settled." Ouyang Zirou smiled broadly and said, "Also, Lord Fang, just call me Zirou. Miss Ouyang sounds really unfamiliar."
Fang Zilan nodded, thinking that she was really familiar with her. She was sweet and talkative, and her cheerful temperament made people quite fond of her. It was completely different from Ouyang Juncheng's open and steady nature.
After Ouyang Zirou left, Fang Zilan went to visit Deputy General Cao. He happened to meet Shangguan Min on the way. He walked over quickly and called "Master Fang".
Fang Zilan looked at him and said with a slight curl of her lips: "Shangguan Min, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you have grown taller again."
Shangguan Min was a little embarrassed when he heard this, and Fang Zilan nodded with satisfaction, "Not bad, it seems that you are living a good life in the army."
"Well, Vice General Li and Master Qi took good care of me." Shangguan Min looked at Fang Zilan up and down as if he was remembering something, and said, "Master Fang, how are your injuries? I heard Miss Awan say , you are seriously injured."
"That girl Awan likes to make a fuss, you don't know." Fang Zilan smiled, "Look at me, am I not standing here properly now?"
Shangguan Min opened his mouth but said nothing. Fang Zilan glanced at him and said, "If you have anything to say, just say it."
"Master Fang, please take care of yourself, we are all worried about you..." Shangguan Min stumbled over his words, and Fang Zilan couldn't help but chuckle, "Who taught you to be such a mother-in-law?"
Shangguan Min coughed lightly and muttered in a low voice: "I just said I shouldn't tell you this..."
"Let me guess." Fang Zilan deliberately drawled: "Neither Lao Li nor Qi Yuming is so nagging, and Lao Qin doesn't talk much. As for Mr. Zhong, you probably don't see him often... Then only Xu Canjun is left. Is it him?"
Shangguan Min turned his head and said nothing. Fang Zilan reached out and patted his shoulder, "You are taller than me, why do you still have a temper like a child? Okay, I won't tease you anymore, let's go visit Lao Cao together."
"Okay." Shangguan Min followed her and chatted with her, "Master Fang, when we entered Qiluo City, we found that several places in the city were burned down. I heard that the wounded soldiers tried to When I was using brimstone, fire, and saltpeter to kill the Miluo people, I accidentally caught fire..."
"It's not accidental." Fang Zilan interrupted him quietly, "It's my order. It's better to be broken than to be destroyed."
Shangguan Min was stunned, "Master Fang, you have been... from the beginning..."
He didn't say anything further. Fang Zilan hummed calmly, "I didn't plan to live in the first place."
"No wonder..." Shangguan Min finally understood why everyone in the northern border was so worried. Vice General Li and Lord Qi not only ordered troops overnight, but also gave him numerous warnings before leaving. It turns out that they already knew that Mr. Fang was guarding Qiluo City with the determination to die. If it was too late...
Fang Zilan turned around and looked at Shangguan Min, who was standing there blankly, frowning slightly and said, "What's wrong with you?"
"Master Fang!" Shangguan Min rushed to her and grabbed her sleeve tightly, "Fortunately, fortunately you are okay."
Fang Zilan was angry and funny, "What did those people in the north teach you to have such a moral character?"
"I..." Shangguan Min grabbed her sleeve for a moment, and she said with a look of disgust on her face: "Let go."
Shangguan Min was still frightened and refused to let go. Fang Zilan frowned and suppressed his temper and said patiently: "What's wrong with you kid? Why are you still so energetic? You've seen it. I'm fine. Let go quickly."
"Are you really okay?" Shangguan Min looked at her steadily, his helpless look making her less angry, "Can't you tell if something's wrong with me? What have you learned in the military over the years? At least Do you have good eyesight? You are now half a grown man, please let me go."
Shangguan Min let out a low voice and reluctantly let go of Fang Zilan's sleeve.
Fang Zilan straightened her sleeves, snorted and stopped talking to him. Shangguan Min followed closely behind, fearing that she would really offend her, so he didn't dare to say anything and became much quieter immediately.
When the two saw Deputy General Cao, Awan was removing the needle for him. She took off the last needle and breathed a sigh of relief, "You came at the right time. Vice Admiral Cao will wake up in a while."
"Great." Shangguan Min's eyes sparkled, and Fang Zilan also breathed a sigh of relief, "Then I'll stay here for a while, and then I'll leave when Lao Cao wakes up."
"You are free to do whatever you want, I have to cook the medicine." Awan stood up and rubbed his arms, "When Deputy Cao wakes up, tell him not to move around, and to feed water slowly, so as not to choke people. , causing trouble for me."
Fang Zilan nodded in agreement, "Don't worry, I'm measured."
Not long after Awan left, Deputy Cao woke up quietly. His voice was so hoarse that he could hardly speak complete sentences. Fang Zilan fed him some water to calm him down and calm down.
"Boss..." Vice General Cao blinked, and Fang Zilan held his hand, "I'm here, Old Cao, who do you think is here?"
"Shangguan... Min?" Deputy General Cao said the name numbly, Shangguan Min said excitedly: "It's me."
"Why are you... here?" Vice General Cao rolled his eyes, and Fang Zilan explained: "Reinforcements are coming. Not only are we saved, but the Miluo people have retreated."
"That's great. Boss, I..." Vice General Cao was about to move when he was held down by Fang Zilan, "Awan told me that you must not move."
"Boss, I'm sorry for you, Miss Zhen..." Vice General Cao's voice choked with sobs. Fang Zilan lowered her eyes and said, "I've heard it all. You don't need to blame yourself. This is Zhen Zhu's own decision. If you really want to pursue it, you should It's my responsibility, I failed to protect you."
"Boss, how could it be your responsibility? You..." Vice General Cao accidentally touched the wound as he spoke, and couldn't help but gasped, "How are you?"
"I'm fine, just minor injuries." Fang Zilan tucked the quilt for him, "You're seriously injured, don't move."
"My injury..." Vice General Cao wanted to say something more, but Fang Zilan spoke first: "Most of them are skin injuries, but the wounds are deep and the blood loss is excessive, so you need to take a good rest. However, one of your legs is broken. From now on..."
She didn't say any more, and Lieutenant General Cao understood clearly, "It's okay. I still have one leg, so it's just a limp. Miss Zhen saved her life for me so that I can still live to see the boss. That's enough."
Fang Zilan felt uncomfortable after hearing this. She said a few words and ran away. Shangguan Min followed her and left. After walking farther, he asked: "Master Fang, Vice Admiral Cao's leg..."
Fang Zilan didn't speak. At the end, just when Shangguan Min thought she wouldn't answer him, he heard her cold voice, revealing indescribable loneliness, "It's good to be alive if you have a life."
