Although it is easy to fish in troubled waters, the people who hold the chips in this game are all old tricksters who have been working hard for many years and have long since become masters.
In their eyes, Fu Congnan was demoted, but he held a birthday banquet with great fanfare. There must be some twists and turns in it, and he might not take any action after thinking twice.
The most likely possibility is that Fu Congnan, like those adults who perished in the flames of Zuiyue Tower, became an outcast who covered up the truth.
However, will the Dugu family behind Fu Congnan look on coldly and let it go?
Thinking of this, Fang Zilan's expression became more and more grim. No matter who was standing behind Fu Congnan, or what kind of evil pregnancy the people in the game were pregnant with, she would bring Fang Lihui out today.
Seeing that Fang Zilan's face was like frost and snow, Awan warned carefully: "Fang Zilan, we have suffered a lot in the southeast. Don't show off your courage and get yourself involved."
"I know." Fang Zilan nodded, and Awan pursed her lips, "Then..."
"No." Fang Zilan said firmly, and Awan's eyes suddenly widened, "I haven't said what it is, why can't it?"
"If you want to go, I'll go alone, and you stay." Fang Zilan had a clear look on his face, watching helplessly as Awan flattened his mouth and said dejectedly: "Fang Zilan, you have changed. I remember when I was in the north, I wanted to follow you No matter where you go, you will always be there for me, and now you are abandoning me every time..."
The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she became, and there was a hint of crying in her voice, which made Fang Zilan feel soft-hearted for no reason, "I can protect myself now, but I may not be able to protect you."
"I don't need your protection." Awan waved his hand, "I didn't have to protect me from the capital. Didn't I make it all the way fine?"
Fang Zilan raised her eyebrows and said, "I'm covered in wounds, so it's okay?"
Awan coughed lightly and said, "Fang Zilan, over the years, I have grown somewhat, so please stop treating me like a child who can't handle things."
"Okay, it's up to you." After Fang Zilan agreed, she went back to the house to wash up, change her clothes, and dress up carefully.
When the time was approaching, Fang Zilan took Awan, along with Li Qiyou and Zhuge Yu, to Fu Congnan's house.
Fu Congnan greeted him personally. As expected, when he saw Fang Zilan, his face was filled with surprise, "Miss Zhen?"
Li Qiyou and Zhuge Yu didn't know the reason and thought Fu Congnan had recognized the wrong person. Fang Zilan also pretended to be embarrassed and said in a panic: "General Fu, you..."
However, before she could finish her words, she was drowned out by a clear female voice, "Everyone in the Fang family is here to congratulate General Fu on his birthday."
A short sentence, but like a thunder, Fang Zilan was so shocked that she couldn't react for a long time. She subconsciously looked back and saw Fang Zitong standing at the door facing the wind, with a bright face as before.
"Lan'er." Fang Zitong said, waving to Fang Zilan. Seeing that she was still standing there blankly, he came quickly and said with a smile: "I was the one who was abrupt, now it's time to call you - Crown Prince Madam.”
The word "Crown Prince" was specially emphasized by her. Fu Congnan heard it and quickly reacted, "It turns out that this is Mrs. Zhongzheng Crown Prince. Please forgive my poor eyesight for mistakenly identifying her as another noble person."
"It doesn't matter." Fang Zitong showed her white teeth and smiled brightly, "Mrs. Shizi has always been generous and will not argue with General Fu about such trivial matters, but..."
She paused deliberately, "If it's something else, it's hard to say."
She meant something. Fang Zilan looked serious but spoke politely, "Second sister, please don't scare General Fu. What else could happen..."
"Yes, what else can be done?" Fang Zitong's eyes flashed, and he answered meaningfully. The next moment, Fang Chongzheng's voice came, "Zitong, we are here today to celebrate General Fu's birthday."
The neither gentle nor serious words revealed Fang Chongzheng's unique intimidation, which not only calmed down Fang Zitong, but also made Fu Congnan feel a little more silent.
Everyone in the world knew that Fang Chongzheng resigned from office and left the capital with his family. Therefore, now, in terms of status, he is not as good as Li Qiyou; in terms of official position, he is not as good as Zhuge Yu; in terms of actual power, he is not even as good as Pei Xiaoze who is present.
But for some reason, whenever Fang Chongzheng opens his mouth, it carries absolute weight. That is the condescending and calm attitude of the long-standing court, and it is also the calm and calm attitude that remains unmoved in the wind and rain.
Even if it was Fang Zilan, after seeing Fang Chongzheng, she opened her mouth unnaturally and called "Dad".
Fang Chongzheng nodded slightly and came forward to greet everyone. Fang Zilan's heart suddenly tightened as she looked at him with ease. Her intuition told her that the purpose of his trip was roughly the same as hers.
But……
Now that Fang Chongzheng has no power, it may not be easy to get people from Fu Congnan. There is also Fang Zitong. Although she seems to have recovered as before, there is no guarantee that rumors about her will appear in front of her at any time. She...
Awan tugged on Fang Zilan's sleeve, interrupting her thoughts, "What is going on? The two Fang family members are here for..."
Fang Zilan made a gesture of silence, "I don't know why, but..."
She didn't say anything further. Awan followed her gaze, looked at Fang Zitong, and whispered: "Miss Fang was originally stimulated, which led to her madness. It is not impossible for her to get better."
"I know." Fang Zilan's expression was dark and unclear. She just didn't understand why Fang Zitong had to appear in front of everyone here and now. It was really a bit risky.
Fang Zitong has already suffered the pain of physical and mental damage caused by thousands of people, and he must not and should not suffer it again.
Of course, Awan didn't know all the twists and turns in Fang Zilan's heart, so he just dragged her into the hall and sat down, watching the guests mingling and drinking, and listening to the congratulations and congratulations.
Fang Zilan was absent-minded and casually made an excuse with Awan to sneak out quietly when no one was paying attention.
"I really didn't expect that General Fu's house would be so big." A Wan sighed, and then followed Fang Zilan who was familiar with the road as if he were in his own courtyard, "Oh, how did you know there is a secret door here? ?”
Fang Zilan ignored Awan's chatter and stopped. There is a cave behind the secret door, another garden, but the figure leaning against the pavilion looks very familiar, it is Hongtai.
"Didn't you leave?" Fang Zilan walked to Hongtai and curled his lips, "I promised you that I would protect King Yucheng, how could I break my promise?"
Fang Zilan said quietly: "King Yucheng is not here, have you gone to the wrong place?"
"How did you know that King Yucheng was not here?" The smile on Hongtai's face deepened, and Fang Zilan suddenly realized that when she came out of the hall just now, she no longer saw Li Qiyou.
