"The daughter of a wealthy family probably said in front of Warners that her business skills are as ruthless as those of men, or even worse, and she will definitely die alone and desperate in the future." Zhuge Yu thought while thinking As he spoke, "This matter caused such a big fuss that the head of the Sasanian family came forward in person. At that time, the head of the Sasanian family said in front of all the Persian nobles that if Warners did not want to bear the name of Sassanid in the future, he would not do anything It doesn't matter whether he has business or doesn't want to get married, he is capable enough to protect his daughter, and it is not his turn to be criticized by others."
After hearing what he said, Fang Zilan raised the corners of her lips with a nice smile and said with a smile: "The head of the Sasan family is indeed a good father, but some words are just good to listen to, but they may not come true."
"Sister Lan, why do you think the head of the Sassan family wants to destroy a family and say such things in front of all the Persian nobles?" Zhuge Yu raised his eyebrows, Fang Zilan was stunned and whispered: "What do you mean? …”
Li Shengxuan looked at the person in front of him steadily, looking as bold as ever, "Fang Zilan, do you know what you are asking?"
"It has something to do with the Xiahou family, right?" Fang Zilan kept asking, and Li Shengxuan's hand hidden in his sleeve clenched into a fist, "Do you really think I won't kill you?"
She was as determined as ever, "If His Majesty really wants me to take over Xiahou Yunzhao's position, I must know the truth."
"It has nothing to do with you taking over." Li Shengxuan relaxed, but his expression was extremely gloomy.
Fang Zilan asked tentatively, "Is that related to Concubine Yu?"
Li Shengxuan's eyes were filled with ferocity, "Fang Zilan, you are so brave."
Fang Zilan did not give in at all and still stood upright, "I can replace Xiahou Yunzhao as the sword in His Majesty's hand, but I cannot be a sword that knows nothing."
Li Shengxuan's expression was dark and unclear, and Fang Zilan tentatively said: "Your Majesty doesn't want to say, you might as well let me guess. There are quite a few criticisms of Concubine Yu in the palace, saying that she is just a nobody of the Xiahou family, because Emperor Tai'an is afraid of Xiahou Yun. Zhao, then there will be a noble concubine in a high position. The so-called climbing high does not necessarily mean seeing far, but there are many people who fall down. The gossip about Concubine Jade has been implicated in His Majesty by someone with intentions..."
"Shut up!" Li Shengxuan interrupted her aggressively, "As the son of Emperor Tai'an and the legitimate lord of the world, how can I be slandered by market rumors?"
"Really?" Fang Zilan suddenly smiled, and the clear and shallow smile was not bright, but warm enough, "It's good that Your Majesty knows. The person who ascends the heights now is Your Majesty. As long as Fang Zilan is by your side, Your Majesty will be protected." The sun looks far away."
Li Shengxuan stared blankly at the person in front of him. Her every word was extremely clear and clear to his ears, "Whether it is the Empress Dowager or other ministers, whether it is under the palace wall or above the court. , whether it is within the capital or outside the four borders, your majesty just needs to sit in that high position in the Mingtang. I will become the sword in your majesty’s hand, remove all obstacles for your majesty, and let your majesty see further.”
The emperor sits in the bright hall, and the waiters guard his health.
Li Shengxuan suddenly remembered what his father, Emperor Tai'an, said to him when he was a child.
At that time, he was only four years old and could not understand what a waiter was.
His father told him that the generals, ministers, and assistants are all servants, and the emperor must sit firmly in the temple, dispatch generals and prime ministers to serve the world, and maintain a healthy and prosperous age.
It's just that in all these years, no one from the many generals and commanders has ever said such a word to him.
But at this moment, these words came from the person who made him most suspicious. Even though he knew that this might be just a high-sounding false promise, he only felt inexplicably relieved.
He would rather listen to partial beliefs and leave his wealth, life and the stability of the world in her hands.
"Okay." Li Shengxuan's voice was very low, but the word "good" still fell deeply into Fang Zilan's heart.
She knew that the way forward was uncertain, and that betrayal and protection could only be a matter of her thoughts, but she was willing to give it a try.
As long as Li Shengxuan dared to entrust her to him, she would dare to make enemies of everyone in the world, including Ji Ningtian, for this entrustment.
She was shocked by her almost ridiculous thoughts and froze on the spot. Could she really do that?
Li Shengxuan lowered his head and looked at Fang Zilan. The person who would obviously say such a thing could not hide the confusion in his eyes at this moment. It turned out that she was just bluffing.
"Sister Lan is going to pay for Fang Lihui to leave the Fang family?" Although Zhuge Yu said it as a question, his tone was very determined, "Sister Lan said last night that Fang Lihui was willing to let him go?"
"It doesn't make sense, I can only take a gamble." Fang Zilan reached out and held the tea cup on the table, stroking the smooth porcelain surface with her fingers, "If it's like what A Yu said, Warners is willing to do it for Even if Fang Liren gives up everything, he cannot let Fang Liren be trapped in the Fang family and unable to escape. If the head of the Sassanid family is offended, the consequences will be disastrous."
"Sister Lan, don't you think it's strange?" Zhuge Yu raised his eyebrows, "Fang Liren has been the head of the Fang family for many years. Not only can he not get a penny from the Fang family, but he also has to spend a large amount of money to redeem himself. What is this? reason?"
Fang Zilan picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea, "Ayu, if you have something to say, you might as well say it directly."
Zhuge Yu said calmly: "Since your Majesty came to the throne, you have neglected the prime minister and the queen for a long time, and the Fang family's business is not as good as before. Now Fang Lihui is taking the opportunity to make money, and Fang Liren has set up this trap with him, and he is waiting for Sister Lan to do it. This guy has been taken advantage of."
Fang Zilan said calmly: "Ayu, what do you think of the Fang family's business?"
"The Fang family's business is naturally very good. Although it has not been as powerful as before in recent years, it is still a golden brand in the hearts of the world." Zhuge Yu said cautiously, and Fang Zilan's lips curled up slightly, "In this case, I can't be taken advantage of. Not only do I have to replace Fang Liren provided money, but also used all the money to buy shares in the Fang family. The decline of the Fang family was due to His Majesty's neglect of the Prime Minister and Queen, but being ignored was a neglect, and His Majesty would not touch them rashly even if their foundation was not stable. What's more, if the Fang family gets another With the support of the upstarts, the situation will be different.”
Zhuge Yu's expression changed slightly, "Sister Lan has decided to go into the troubled waters of the Fang family? Do you know that His Majesty is already suspicious of you, and if you get involved with the Fang family again, His Majesty may not tolerate you."
"It's up to me to decide whether it's related or not?" Fang Zilan smiled mockingly, "My surname is Fang, and I happen to have the same name as the third lady in Prime Minister Fang's house. His Majesty is deeply suspicious that I have something to do with the Fang family. It doesn’t matter, you can’t get rid of it.”
"Since Sister Lan knows, why don't you avoid suspicion?" There was a hint of concern in Zhuge Yu's tone, and Fang Zilan had a smile in her eyes, "A Yu, are you caring about me?"
