"I met King Chu Jiang on the street today. He said..." Awan hesitated and said, "Young master wants to see you."
Fang Zilan's expression turned cold, "When?"
"Tomorrow." A Wan looked worried, and Fang Zilan asked, "When did you meet King Chu Jiang?"
Awan thought for a while, and then reported for an hour. Fang Zilan looked serious and said, "It is indeed him."
"What?" Awan was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "You mean, King Chu Jiang killed Lord Wu?"
Fang Zilan nodded slightly, "It's very possible. People from the Ghost Sect rarely take action during the day. Even if there is a mission, the fewer people, the better."
"When the young master sees you..." A Wan did not continue, Fang Zilan's face was as dark as water, "If the soldiers come to cover up the water and the earth, he will not kill me too."
When the two entered the yard, they saw Fang Zilan directing the servants to bring in tables and chairs. There were chairs in the middle of the table, and the two of them were stunned.
"This..." The person who delivered the food couldn't help but frowned. He was originally one of the top storytellers in the capital. For some reason yesterday, a military master came to his home and asked him to go to Fang Mansion to tell stories. The reward was extremely high, but the conditions were a bit strange, requiring him to dress up as a food delivery person before he could enter the house.
Although the adults in the high gate and deep courtyard all have some strange hobbies, they like to listen to the story of the food delivery person. This is the first time he has heard of it. Now that I see this battle, I am even more hesitant.
However, Fang Zilan didn't give him any time to hesitate. She pointed at the table and said, "That's your place. When everyone is almost here, you can talk. I agreed in advance that it's not a story, it's a story." You can prepare for the new things that have happened in Beijing recently."
Before she finished speaking, the housekeeper pushed the man to stand behind the desk and said, "Please wait a moment."
"No, I..." The man wanted to say that he could only tell stories, but no one gave him a chance. People in the courtyard were busy chattering and soon the whole courtyard was filled with people, and pairs of shining eyes looked at him, making him feel guilty. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and said: "If you want to talk about what's new in Beijing recently, it must be Mr. Fang Zilan..."
Fang Zilan choked on her tea again when she heard this. She coughed a few times to attract the man's attention. He slowed down his tone and lowered his voice a little. He couldn't help but murmur in his heart. Looking at this young lady's reaction, could it be that Ever heard of it? It's impossible. He just heard about this from the restaurant yesterday. How could such a pampered young lady in a boudoir hear about it?
On the side, Cong Rong patted Fang Zilan on the back and asked in a low voice, "Do you want to interrupt him?"
"No need." Fang Zilan calmed down and whispered: "Let him speak and listen to what people outside say about me."
The man saw the two of them whispering, but there was no intention of not letting him talk. He immediately calmed down and talked about what he had seen and heard recently, such as Fang Zilan and the Southeast Pinghai bandits, and the Xiahou family's medical girl's wonderful rejuvenation treatment What a plague, he said it so miraculously that everyone was amazed.
Towards the end of the story, a boy asked: "I heard that Mo Bin and his son, the guard at Mushan Pass, will be escorted back to Beijing in the next two days. According to what the gentleman said, Mo Bin and his son were at Pinghai. You have done your best, so why are you being escorted back to Beijing?"
"You don't know something about this." The man deliberately let it slip and said mysteriously: "I heard that Fang Zilan, Lord Fang, fell in love with Mo Han, the youngest son of the Mo family, and he accidentally read a book about the Mo family. What happened to the Mo family is really a disaster."
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone sitting around suddenly became quiet, and all eyes were focused on Fang Zilan. She took a sip of tea calmly, then looked at the person and said, "Sir, do you know who I am?"
The man looked confused, shook his head and said, "I have never heard of a lady's name before."
Fang Zilan reminded him with a smile, "This is Fang Mansion."
"I know." The man nodded, and then he realized something was wrong. There were many dignitaries named Fang in the capital, so he didn't find out which Fang mansion it was. Now that he thought about it, he thought about the military master guarding the house and the female head. The one who calls the shots, could it be...
When he was panicking, Fang Zilan's voice came faintly, "I am the Fang Zilan in the story Mr. told."
After she said that, she saw the man trembling and kneeling in front of her, "I don't know that you are Mr. Fang. What I said just now was very offensive. Please forgive me."
"Sir, please get up." Fang Zilan raised her hand to signal him to get up. He stood up tremblingly, hunched over and not daring to stand up straight.
"Sir, the story is well told." Fang Zilan calmly said, "But I have a question, and I would like to ask you to clear it up."
"Master Fang, please speak." The man lowered his head and listened to her ask: "Just now, when Mr. Cai was talking about the Xiahou family's medical daughter's wonderful rejuvenation and cure of the plague, he mentioned that the daughter of King Rong'an, Princess Rong'an, helped with the medicine. Is that what happened?"
"This..." The man looked hesitant and did not dare to speak. Fang Zilan said calmly, "Sir, even if you tell the truth, I will not embarrass you."
"I also accidentally heard someone say this." The man took a breath and said, "I heard that Princess Rongan disguised herself and sneaked into the epidemic area to help Mr. Yun who opened a medical clinic. According to the Xiahou family, According to what the doctor girl said, a medicine to cure the plague was developed, which solved the urgent need. In addition, later on, the doctor girl from the Xiahou family contracted the plague and died. There were rumors that if Princess Rong'an hadn't helped, the plague would not have healed so quickly, so now Rong An Princess An is in the southeast, and she has become a living Bodhisattva in the hearts of the people."
As he spoke, he secretly observed Fang Zilan's expression. Seeing her expression becoming more solemn, he couldn't help but weaken his tone at the end and asked tentatively, "Master Fang, is this true?"
After hearing this, Fang Zilan already had a suspicion in her mind. This was someone with ulterior motives who wanted to obliterate Yun Qinghan and put all her achievements on Princess Rong'an. This person must know the inside story and have great influence, so that he can not only deceive the people, but also spread such rumors from the southeast to the capital.
The most important thing is that this person knew very well that she had covered up the truth and was unwilling to take credit... Thinking about it this way, the answer was obvious. The mastermind behind the matter was King Rongan. He didn't get much benefit from the chaos in the southeast, so he retreated behind the scenes and pushed his daughter out to steal a good reputation. His calculation was really good, but how could he be so sure that she would never expose his lies? Woolen cloth?
"Master Fang..." Seeing that she had no reaction, the man couldn't help but call her. She came back to her senses and said coldly: "I don't know whether Princess Rongan is a living Bodhisattva, but I know the medicine to cure the plague. It was not developed by Princess Rongan."
