Fang Zilan looked at Li Shengxuan, who was walking over, and snorted coldly, "So what? I don't know when you got the habit of listening to people in corners."
"I'm not listening to the wall, I'm just worried about you." Li Shengxuan's lips curled up slightly, "After all, you are my master now. What should I do if something bad happens to you?"
"Don't come here." Fang Zilan looked a little colder, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, don't make any plans that you shouldn't make."
The smile on Li Shengxuan's face became even brighter, "For example..."
"You know it well, why do you need to go around in circles with me?" Fang Zilan raised her hand and smoothed Li Shengxuan's messy temples. Although Awan and Mingxiang simply changed their appearance for him and Xia Houzhang, they still couldn't conceal his noble temperament. , and the pressure of the superior. But in front of her, none of these things could be done.
Li Shengxuan was stunned and grabbed Fang Zilan's wrist. "Although the news of my disappearance has been suppressed, Jiangnan Camp and all the governments have taken action. Zuiyue Tower may not be safe."
"Each government will sell family face to some extent. There are still fifteen days from now to the end of the Spring Festival." Fang Zilan took a step forward and whispered in Li Shengxuan's ear: "If you want to check something, go check it. As long as it is not excessive, I can always protect you."
"If it's too much..." Li Shengxuan stopped talking, Fang Zilan chuckled, "Even if others are killed by you, I won't care. But if it involves the Fang family and Ah Shi, I can't guarantee it. What will I do?"
"Okay." Li Shengxuan felt the warm breath in his ears, responded, took a few steps back, stood firm and said, "I will obey the master's instructions."
Fang Zilan raised her hand to signal Li Shengxuan to help himself, and then she took Awan and Mingxiang to the hall to drink tea and eat.
Zuiyue Tower is built on the water, with well-proportioned pavilions, pavilions, waterside pavilions and painted boats. The winding corridors are deep and winding. It can be said that every step of the way is a scene that is dizzying.
The entrance hall is magnificent, with carved beams and painted columns and high hanging brocade curtains. On the tables of the guests who were seated were all jade plates of delicacies and gold cups of fine wine, which gave the guests a dizzying sense of prosperity and enchantment.
Fang Zilan always looked deserted, quietly chose a corner seat to sit down, and casually ordered a few dishes and a pot of tea.
At this time, most of the guests in the hall had changed, and not many people noticed her, so she was happy and leisurely, until someone sat quietly opposite her.
Ming Xiang immediately became wary. She moved her sleeves slightly, but was held down by Fang Zilan calmly, "Sir, I never like sharing the same table with strangers. Please find another seat."
"Girl, don't you recognize me?" The man raised his eyebrows, but Fang Zilan didn't even raise his eyelids, "Did you recognize the wrong person?"
"Even if your appearance changes, girl, I still recognize your sword." The man's eyes fell on the sword Fang Zilan put aside, "That's the plum sword, Zi Xiu's plum sword."
Fang Zilan lowered her eyes and glanced at the plum sword. In order to hide it from others, she had wrapped the plum branch shape of the sword's hilt with cloth. It looked no different from an ordinary sword.
"The girl didn't say anything, but she acquiesced?" The man's expression became colder, but there was a look of determination in his eyes.
"I am half a Jianghu person, so I have naturally heard of Zixiu's name." Fang Zilan said quietly: "I heard that everyone who has seen her and the plum sword in her hand is dead."
The man's expression froze, and then Fang Zilan glanced at him, "I bought this sword casually on the way to Zuiyue Tower. I bought it based on my eyesight. As for its origin, I am too lazy to go into details. If you like it, you might as well Just make an offer."
"What did you say?" A look of surprise flashed across the man's face, and Fang Zilan took the time to say, "Why, do you have no money?"
"I..." The man was speechless for a moment, Fang Zilan frowned and said: "I hate dealing with poor people. If you don't have money, stay away from me as soon as possible, so as not to pass on the bad luck of poverty to me."
As she spoke, she flicked her sleeves with a look of disgust on her face, as if she was afraid of being stained by the man's poor aura.
"You're going too far!" The man shouted, "I am Geng Nan, the 27th generation descendant of Xiaojing Lake. You actually dare to say that I have no money..."
"It turns out he is a hero from Xiaojing Lake. It's a pleasure to meet him. But is there still a sect like Xiaojing Lake now?" Fang Zilan said sarcastically: "Qi Liu, the twenty-sixth generation leader of Xiaojing Lake, is your master, right? He is At the gambling table, we lost all the house and land in Xiaojing Lake to the Daomen Huo family. Is it time for Geng Daxia to change his tune now?"
"You..." The man named Geng Nan gritted his teeth and was about to take action, but was stopped by the woman on the side. "Senior Brother Geng, please don't cause trouble."
Seeing this, Mingxiang leaned into Fang Zilan's ear and whispered, "This woman is Huo Chun'er, the youngest daughter of the Daomen Huo family."
"While seducing the daughter of the Huo family, we are searching for Zi Xiu's whereabouts." Fang Zilan deliberately prolonged her tone and said loudly, "Master Geng is very resourceful."
She used some of her inner strength, so although her voice was not loud, it was enough for everyone in the hall to hear clearly. Immediately, someone with good intentions came over and asked, "Where is Zixiu?"
"Then we have to ask this Hero Geng." Fang Zilan waved, and the waiter carrying tea not far away dared to step forward, quickly put the tea on the table, rubbed oil on the soles of his feet, and disappeared in a flash. .
"Don't listen to her nonsense!" Geng Nan blushed, "She has Zixiu's plum sword, she..."
He suddenly stopped mid-sentence, because Fang Zilan tremblingly picked up the teapot, and the wide sleeves fell down, revealing the hideous scar on her right hand. Awan, who was sitting next to her, quickly took the teapot. , "Master, let me do it."
The onlookers looked at each other and saw an expression that was hard to describe on the other person's face, so someone couldn't help but said: "This hero, why are you so aggressive towards a weak girl?"
"I didn't..." Geng Nan looked aggrieved. Fang Zilan looked at him coldly and stood up and said: "Since this Geng Daxia is unwilling to give up, I might as well let you all be witnesses to see if my handle is actually Zixiu." Plum sword."
After saying that, she picked up the plum sword that was tightly wrapped in cloth and placed her fingers on a corner of the cloth. "But before you look at it, I have something to tell you."
Everyone had different expressions. They didn't know what kind of medicine Fang Zilan was selling in her gourd. All eyes in the hall were focused on her.
"Zixiu's plum sword is an important physical evidence in the case of the trespassing at the residence of Mr. Xu Youtong, the Secretary of the Ministry of Revenue. It is now kept by Mr. Xie Yanping, the Yin of Jingzhao Prefecture." Before Fang Zilan could finish her words, she heard doubts coming and going, "You How do you know that?"
Fang Zilan smiled slightly, Shi Shiran saluted, and said solemnly: "Mr. Zhen of Qianjinfang, you are polite here."
