Fang Zitong seemed unwilling to say more, turned away and said: "Master Fang, please leave."
After she finished speaking, Fang Zilan quickly took out the arrow from her sleeve without waiting for her to speak. The tip of the arrow was pointed directly at her neck, "If you refuse to leave, I'm afraid you will be charged with murdering the prime minister's daughter."
She was decisive in her words and deeds, and Fang Zilan's heart sank. If she insisted on doing so, it would be difficult for even Fang Chongzheng to change her mind.
What tricks did Pei Juqing use to make Fang Zitong risk her life for him?
Seeing that the Xiujian was about to pierce the skin of Fang Zitong's neck, Fang Zilan suddenly grabbed her wrist and forced the Xiujian in her hand to deflect slightly with a little force.
"If Miss Fang Er doesn't want to, I won't force you." Fang Zilan's voice was cold, "Miss Fang Er, please take care of yourself."
After she finished speaking, she didn't stop any longer, got up and left.
Dongxue was waiting outside the door. When she saw Fang Zilan coming out, she hurriedly greeted her. She said, "Master Fang, my young lady..."
Hearing this, Fang Zilan's expression softened and she said, "Don't be nervous, I didn't say anything to your lady. She needs you, so go ahead and accompany her."
"Yes." Dongxue nodded in agreement, and then said as if she was remembering something, "Master Fang..."
"I have a good memory. I will never forget a journey I have taken once." Fang Zilan reassured, "You don't have to worry about me."
Dongxue breathed a sigh of relief, bowed, turned around and walked back. Fang Zilan looked at her back and thought that she was a careful and gentle person. Fang Chongzheng had good intentions by letting her stay with Fang Zitong. It's a pity that Fang Zitong's temper is not something she can take care of.
Thinking of this, Fang Zilan couldn't help but sigh, and Fang Zitong's words suddenly came to her mind. For some reason, she always felt that Fang Zitong meant that this marriage had something to do with her, but what was the relationship?
She was thinking as she walked, and after a while she walked back to the front yard, but heard the sound of an argument——
"Master Pei, my second young lady is visiting guests at the moment. It is inconvenient to see you. Please go back." The butler's voice was helpless, and Pei Xiaoze said anxiously: "I have something important to tell Second Miss Fang. Please let me know. I will be here." Wait for her in the front hall.”
The housekeeper looked troubled, "Mr. Pei, it's not that I didn't inform you, but my second lady gave the order early in the morning. I won't see the Pei family today. Aren't you making things difficult for me?"
Pei Xiaoze took a step forward, as if he was going to break through. Seeing this, Fang Zilan walked a few steps quickly and said in a loud voice: "Master Pei, I haven't seen you for a long time. I never thought I would meet you in the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"Master Fang..." A flash of surprise flashed in Pei Xiaoze's eyes, and then he said clearly: "Are you the guest of Miss Fang's party?"
Fang Zilan nodded, "I was asked to send something to Miss Fang. I wonder why Mr. Pei is here?"
"I..." Pei Xiaoze pursed his lips and opened his mouth hesitantly, but did not make a sound.
"Master Pei also comes to see Miss Fang?" Fang Zilan pretended to be confused and said: "This is strange. Master Pei, you have always observed etiquette. The Prime Minister is not in the house at the moment. You will not meet Miss Fang in private, right?"
"I'm not being disrespectful, I just have something important to tell Miss Fang, and I can't delay it." Pei Xiaoze said frankly, "Since Mr. Fang is here too, you might as well be a witness for me."
"Okay." Fang Zilan agreed very quickly, but Pei Xiaoze was stunned for a moment, then coughed lightly and said: "You are so welcome, Mr. Fang."
"You and I are considered friends. Why should I be polite to you?" Fang Zilan looked unfazed. "What's more, you helped me a lot when you were in the government office. Just think of it as giving me a chance to do the same." Let me help you."
Pei Xiaoze bowed his hands and said, "Then I would like to thank Mr. Fang for your kindness." After saying this, he stood up straight and looked at the butler beside him.
The housekeeper glanced back and forth between the two of them, feeling a huge headache. If it were Pei Xiaoze, it would be easy to get rid of. But now Zi Lan seems to want to support Pei Xiaoze. If her identity as the Duke of Yue is revealed, he, the housekeeper of the Prime Minister's Mansion, cannot be dismissed.
"You don't have to be embarrassed, just ask someone to inform Miss Fang Er." Fang Zilan waved her hand magnanimously, "If she really doesn't want to, I will take Mr. Pei out."
The housekeeper reacted immediately and immediately sent someone to report it. Pei Xiaoze looked shocked, "Master Fang, you..."
"That's all I can help you." Fang Zilan looked innocent, "It's good to have someone go and inform Miss Fang Er. If it doesn't work, wouldn't I still take you out?"
Pei Xiaoze gritted his teeth. Fang Zilan was not helping. She was clearly helping the Fang family to drive him out.
However, Fang Zilan was unaware and still thought to herself: "When the time comes, outsiders will see that even the Duke of Yue has been rejected by the Prime Minister's Mansion, and they will not comment on you."
Pei Xiaoze took a deep breath and said with a smile, "Thank you so much, Mr. Fang."
"Master Pei is so polite." Fang Zilan smiled, as if she was sincerely responding to Pei Xiaoze's thanks, which made him unable to swallow or spit out a breath, making him even more confused.
After a while, just as Fang Zilan was about to carry Pei Xiaoze away, she suddenly saw Fang Zitong's figure approaching from far away.
This time she was angry.
What happened to Fang Zitong? The news about her and Pei Xiaoze had already spread all over the city, but the news about her engagement to Pei Jueqing was afraid that it would spread in less than two days. At this juncture, she still didn't avoid suspicion. Did she think that the people in the capital didn't have long enough tongues?
Fang Zilan thought angrily, and suddenly the word "love brain" popped up in her mind, making her couldn't help but chuckle——
Don't tell me, this word really suits Fang Zitong.
Although Fang Zilan quickly coughed and hid her smile, Fang Zitong still saw it in her eyes, and she felt angry rising up in her heart——
Seeing this, I am afraid that no one else can be found in the whole capital. If he had known this, he should have let her drown in the first place. Why save her life? What a good white-eyed wolf who repays kindness with revenge.
Fang Zitong was furious and said, "Mr. Pei, if you continue to pester me, I will have you kicked out. You have an official position, and you are not afraid of causing embarrassment. I am a queen of the house." , then there is no need to worry.”
"Second Miss Fang, I..." Pei Xiaoze flicked his sleeves and said as if he had made up his mind, "I heard from my cousin Duke Guo Guo that you intend to marry..."
"Shut up!" Fang Zitong shouted sharply, "Come here, please get Mr. Pei out. If anyone dares to say a word about what happened in the courtyard today, he will be kicked out of the capital and never allowed to enter."
Fang Zilan's expression calmed down, and there was a little chill in her eyes. I don’t know whether Pei Xiaoze is concerned about causing chaos or is just stupid and bad. The marriage between Fang Zitong and Pei Juanqing has not yet been decided. Fang Chongzheng went to Pei’s house but the results have not yet come out. If he intervenes and reveals the matter at this time, it is tantamount to setting Pei Juanqing on fire. The fire in the fire arched higher, and Fang Zitong couldn't explain it even though he had a mouth all over his body.
Was Pei Xiaoze's move his own intention or was he instigated by others?
