Fang Zilan looked at Hongtai, who looked shocked, and said encouragingly: "Go on."
"The corpse of King Rong'an cannot be destroyed." Hongtai's voice was deep. Fang Zilan nodded in approval, turned to Zhen Mier and said: "May I ask the master of Qianjinfang, what corpse in the world cannot be destroyed?"
"Poisoning." Zhen Mi'er's voice was very soft, as if it would be blown away in the wind at any time. "I heard that there is a poisonous insect in the Yue Di Mountains that can sneak into the human body and breed toxins. The symptoms will be the same as being sick, but within three months , it can kill people. There is no cure for this poison, and when a person dies, the poison will soak into the bone marrow and will not melt when exposed to fire. After a year, King Rong'an's body has rotted and is nothing more than a dry bone, but they still want to Hiding, I guess it must be this poison."
"Master Qianjinfang is indeed well-informed." Fang Zilan sighed, and then said to Hongtai: "Qian Wenxiang should not be able to get rid of the poisonous insects in Yue."
Hongtai took a deep breath, "I can tell you, but..."
"Whether Xiahou Yunzhao knows about it or not is my business." Fang Zilan interrupted Hongtai, seeing a flash of astonishment in his eyes, she couldn't help but smile: "Such a terrifying poisonous insect comes from Yue. I guess Xiahou Yunzhao doesn't know about it. With her temperament, she won't ignore it if she finds out."
She paused, and the smile on her face became brighter, "What, is it difficult to guess?"
"Since you can guess it even if I don't say it, there's no need for me to say it." Hongtai's expression turned cold, and the smile on Fang Zilan's face faded a bit, "Master, tell me and guess it with me. , is completely different.”
"Fang Zilan, you never planned to let me go." Hongtai almost gritted his teeth, "Do you think that by using me, I can make up for the crime, and the court can forget about it?"
"I am handing over power and resigning, and it doesn't matter what I say." Fang Zilan didn't admit it, but she didn't deny it either. "But King Yucheng has the final say, so I hand you over to him and hope you change your ways."
"Reform?" Hongtai seemed to have heard something ridiculous and laughed out loud, "Fang Zilan, if you say this, do you believe it? I am a prisoner of the imperial court and will never be redeemed. No one will believe me. No one will give me a chance..."
"I believe you." Fang Zilan stopped Hongtai's words and whispered: "I know what it feels like to want to pay for your life. I also know the pain of never being able to pay for it."
She smiled self-deprecatingly, "I've asked myself many times, why wasn't I the one who died?"
Zhen Mier turned her head away, and Hongtai opened her mouth, "Fang Zilan..."
"No matter what, the one who is alive is me and you." Fang Zilan pursed her lips, with a look of determination in her eyes, "Since you are alive, you cannot live in vain."
It seemed like for the first time in her life, she said all the words in her heart, "My parents want the mountains and rivers to be eternal, and I have conquered the four realms, but they have fulfilled their wishes. Mo Han wants to revise the law and bring justice to the world. , I went down to the south of the Yangtze River and flew up to the Lingshan Mountain to collect evidence of evil deeds, and it was not in vain. The ghost gate ruined Chu Bin, and the Jianghu people harmed his life, so I will eradicate the ghost gate and purge the rivers and lakes. "
"Lan'er, you..." Zhen Mi'er finally understood that what Cui Hai was selling in Zuiyue Tower was not only the news about his senior brother that he had longed for, but also a favor.
Fang Zilan's move is aimed at the future. With Cui Hai as his son, Daomen Huo family, Xiaojinghu, Wuliangdian... all Jianghu sects will be drawn into a game called grudges.
Ever since the mountain bandit killed the first Jianghu person, the two sides were destined to never live in peace. Just like the two sides black and white on a chessboard, it will not end until one side is strangled.
Zhen Mier felt cold all over her body. It was such a good trick and a good plan. When did Fang Zilan not only use herself as a pawn, but also treat everyone as a pawn?
No. Treating everyone as chess pieces can only be done by those who hold the chess pieces.
It turned out that at a certain moment that she had never noticed, Fang Zilan finally stepped out of her identity as a chess piece and became the one who holds the piece in the games. However, Fang Zilan herself seems not to be fully aware of this yet...
"Then what do you want?" Hongtai heard his own voice, trembling unnoticeably, but he had to ask.
"I want a place of my own." Fang Zilan's voice faded, filled with a sense of helplessness, "Then, go home."
"Go back to Fang's house? Or..." Hongtai couldn't help but ask, but didn't get any answer.
"It's not important anymore." Fang Zilan gritted her teeth, knowing she couldn't go back. It turns out that what happened in the world, with Mo Han's death, seemed to have happened in the previous life.
Hongtai was stunned for a moment, then saw Fang Zilan sit up straight and tighten her hand on the horse's reins, "Even if I can't have a place for me, I still want everyone to remember who Fang Zilan is."
After she said that, she raised her whip and rode her horse, and rushed towards Feiling Mountain without looking back. Hongtai looked at her back and was stunned for a long time, then suddenly asked Zhen Mier, "Aren't you going to chase her?"
"Someone needs to stay." Zhen Mier turned the horse's head, facing Hongtai's back, "to deal with the aftermath."
Hongtai let out a long sigh of relief, as if all his normal anger had dissipated with this breath. But it seems that all the unwillingness in my heart has returned at this moment.
"Leave it to you." Hongtai didn't look back, and Zhen Mier said quietly: "Since you brought her here, you must be responsible and bring her out safe and sound."
"I know." Hongtai returned to his usual carefree look, "Take care and be sure to save your life, lest she will hate me."
"There are many people who want to kill Zhen Mi'er." Zhen Mi'er smiled, her red lips parted lightly, and she was so charming, "There are not many people who can kill Zhen Mi'er."
There was a chuckle from behind, and the sound of horse hooves disappeared not far away. The smile on Zhen Mier's face gradually dissipated. She looked up at the slowly setting red sun in the sky, and felt an unspeakable desolation in her heart.
The sunset is infinitely beautiful, but it’s almost dusk. The years I had stolen by luck will finally be returned on this night.
"Are you Qianjinfang Zhen?" The man's voice was still very clear amidst the chaotic sounds of horse hooves.
He is a master. Zhen Mi'er raised her lips again, and when the billowing smoke fell, she nodded and said, "Zhen Mi'er is the daughter of Zhen Mingxuan, the owner of Hidden Sword Villa."
"Hidden Sword Villa? Isn't it Qianjinfang?"
"Zhen Mingxuan? Didn't all the Zhen family die in the fire that year?"
Everyone was whispering, and the man at the head heard it, but he just raised his hand, and everyone became quiet.
"If you were the Zhen family of Qianjinfang, I would consider keeping your body intact." The man's eyes were full of anger, "The Zhen family of Hidden Sword Villa should be destroyed in ashes."
