Li Shengxuan let out a long sigh, "It was my oversight that you were injured. However, the New Year's social drama has a wide range of implications. Although the person in charge is King Yucheng and the Ministry of Rites, behind it are the Empress Dowager and various powerful people in the court. The aristocratic families who participated in the performance Young master, high official, and noble person, I cannot touch them for the time being, so I can only wrong you."
Fang Zilan was stunned for a moment, then asked: "Your Majesty invited me here just to talk about this?"
She felt regretful after she finished speaking, but Li Shengxuan nodded without any reaction and asked: "What else? What do you think I want to say to you?"
"It's nothing." Fang Zilan shook his head, "I just think it would be best if His Majesty is willing to make the decision for me and give me justice. However, I also know that since these people are so bold and dare to do it in public, they must be pregnant. If you rely on me, your Majesty will never stand up for me."
She paused as she spoke, and her expression became a little lighter, with an innate coldness and unruliness, "If something like this happens again in the future, your Majesty can't do anything for me and you don't have to tell me. After all, I am a human being. , I am used to living alone, and I never need others to do anything for me. I solve my own affairs by myself."
"You..." Li Shengxuan was choked by her and couldn't speak for a while. After a while, he calmly said: "I just..."
He opened his mouth, and finally swallowed the worried words behind him.
Worrying about powerlessness is nothing but hypocrisy.
Fang Zilan waited for a long time, but when he saw that he had nothing to say, she couldn't help but ask: "Just what?"
Even she found it funny as soon as the words came out of her mouth. What on earth was she expecting?
Li Shengxuan was silent and said to herself: "Your Majesty, do you still remember Xia Houyan? When your Majesty's old troops were dying in the Wind River Valley with their eyes open, I understood that your Majesty could not help himself. This is true for the Xiahou family, even more so. Not to mention me?"
Li Shengxuan looked gloomy and opened his mouth as if he wanted to refute, but in the end no sound came out.
He allowed Fang Zilan to continue speaking, listening to her every word as if she was mocking herself, "Actually, who in the world has no worries? It's just that I'm unwilling to do so. Your Majesty, you don't have to care..."
Before she could finish her words, she heard a loud bang.
Hearing the sound, the two of them looked up and looked out the window at the same time, only to see gorgeous fireworks burning across the sky, occupying their entire sight.
Exhausted fireworks continued to slide down, and more dazzling fireworks continued to light up the night sky. One after another, the scenery is colorful and dizzying.
Fang Zilan stared at it for a while, then lowered her eyes and whispered: "The New Year's Eve palace banquet is about to begin. Your Majesty is still busy, so don't pay attention to me anymore. I will leave the palace right now." After saying this, she bowed and turned around. Then leave.
Li Shengxuan did not try to persuade her to stay, but just watched her leaving figure quietly. He suddenly felt that the fireworks in the sky were so dull and tasteless, and they were not as dazzling as the one she set off in the Wind River Valley.
Fang Zilan left the palace and stopped for a long time to watch the fireworks on Zhuque Street. Her hands and feet were numb from the cold, but she still stood still.
In the bustling scene with constant traffic and traffic, she was so silent that she seemed to be incompatible with everything around her.
At the beginning, she only felt that the world was indifferent, so during the fireworks in Wind River Valley, she vowed to be her own light.
Later she watched fireworks many times.
However, under that majestic light, she only felt as if she were in an ice cave, getting colder and colder.
After all, you can't help yourself.

In just a few days, Fang Liren seemed to have changed. His face was pale and almost without any blood, and his eyes were less bright and more disappointed. The whole person is as thin and thin as a piece of paper, and the robes on his body appear to be much wider, baggy and without any energy.
Seeing this, Zhuge Yu shook his head and said, "Master Fang, why are you doing this?"
Fang Liren lowered his head in despair, and his voice was hoarse, "I made an agreement with the gangsters who robbed Warners for one month. Within one month, if I can't bring Mr. Fang to them, they will Will kill Warners. Now there are only two days left before the deadline."
Fang Zilan sneered, "So you're in a hurry?"
Fang Liren was not annoyed when she exposed him, he just raised his head and looked at her, with a hint of pleading in his tone, "What on earth do you want to do before you are willing to trade for Warners?"
"How?" Fang Zilan walked up to Fang Liren in a leisurely manner and looked at him steadily, "My life is a priceless treasure that cannot be exchanged for anything."
After she finished speaking, she saw that Fang Liren's eyes had completely lost their luster, like a person who fell into a swamp and tore off the last straw, only to watch helplessly as he was trapped in the mud.
"Okay, okay! Okay..." Fang Liren almost yelled out three words of "good" in succession, and each word was filled with tears and despair.
Until he uttered the last good word, he was like a kite with its string broken, falling lightly to the ground. His heart was as gray as ashes, which was unbearable to look at.
"Fang Liren, I heard that you are an unparalleled business genius. You lost your parents when you were a child, and you single-handedly managed to reach the position of head of the family in a den like the Fang family." Fang Zilan sighed, "But look. See what you look like now?"
After she finished speaking, she squatted in front of Fang Liren with a cold and determined expression, "I won't change Warners, but I will rescue her."
"How can I save her on my own?" Fang Liren stared at Fang Zilan in disbelief, as if he wanted to see something from her face, but couldn't.
"Despite a desperate fight, there may not be no way to survive." Fang Zilan said with a smile on her face, "This is my business, you only need to tell me where the place you agreed with those robbers is."
Fang Liren hesitated for a long time, then whispered: "Thirty miles outside Xiguan City, in the woods on the border between Dajing and Persia."
"Okay. We'll set off tomorrow." Fang Zilan agreed without hesitation, "Don't worry, there will be nothing wrong with me in Warners."
She stood up and was about to leave, but she heard Fang Liren's voice, hesitant and full of hope, "Are you really willing..."
"There's nothing you don't want to do." Fang Zilan interrupted Fang Liren abruptly and paused for a moment with her back to him.
Zhuge Yu looked at her and saw that there was no expression on her face, but the look in her eyes was extremely solemn and solemn, "There are always things that need someone to do."
Someone with ulterior motives took advantage of her business to make a big fuss. When she was not in the north, she dragged everyone related to her into the water one by one, making it impossible for her to survive alone, and in the end she could only be dragged into the deep pool.
But what role did Fang Lihui play in this? Is it an insidious murderer who helps the mastermind behind the scenes to stab her in the back, or is it a gang of innocent people who are in the same boat with her?
