Zhong Yao looked at Fang Zilan's smile, which was almost evil. His eyes were shining like a god, so dazzling that it was impossible to look directly at him.
He raised the corners of his lips, picked up the tea cup and drank it all, and blurted out the words involuntarily, "If Mr. Fang does not dislike it, the lower officials in the Northern Territory are willing to follow Mr. Fang to the death."
"Okay." Fang Zilan put the tea cup on the table, "Thanks to Mr. Zhong's good opinion, Fang Zilan will do his best."
"However, I have one more thing to trouble Mr. Zhong." She said, taking out the note that Lu Tang had written for her earlier from her sleeve and placing it on the table. "I would like to ask Mr. Zhong to submit a letter of apology for Lu Zhizhang." I sent the letter to His Majesty and attached this written receipt. It said that the Lu family had such unworthy descendants and they were too shameless to see Your Majesty, so they had no choice but to ask Jianbei Protectorate to share His Majesty's worries and atone for Lu Tang's sins."
Zhong Yao took the document and read it carefully and couldn't help but admired: "Master Fang is so clever. Even if Lu Zhizhang is unhappy, he can only knock out his teeth and swallow blood, but..."
"There's nothing wrong with it." Fang Zilan saw his hesitation and said calmly: "Since I am supporting you, then I will naturally be the villain."
"Master Fang is calm, but the lower official feels guilty." Zhong Yao put the note back to its original place.
Fang Zilan chuckled lightly, "Why do you deserve it, Mr. Zhong? Didn't you just say that in the future, you and I will go hand in hand in the northern border, and in the blink of an eye, Mr. Zhong forgot about it?"
"I don't dare to lower my rank." After saying this, Zhong Yao stopped refusing and accepted the document.
At a certain moment that no one else knew, Fang Zilan and Zhong Yao reached an agreement to become allies.
Maybe it's just because they still have good intentions even though they use tricks, maybe it's just because they have a belief in their hearts that they will never give up until they achieve their goals, or maybe it's just because they are unwilling to bow to the world.
However, none of them who made the promise at that time thought about what kind of beating they would experience in the face of changes in the future, and whether they could still be young people who are not afraid of the passage of time.
Fang Zilan and Awan sat for a while, then left and returned home.
On their way back to the mansion, the two met many people who came to express their gratitude and kowtow, so it took them a long time to get back to the mansion.
As soon as she returned to the house, Awan couldn't help but sigh that it was so satisfying to do good deeds. Fang Zilan laughed at her child's nature, but she wasn't annoyed. She just came to Fang Zilan and pulled her sleeves, "Just now in front of Mr. Zhong, It’s hard for me to ask you. Are you unhappy because of Huo Sanniang? "
Fang Zilan didn't answer, and Awan pulled her sleeves reluctantly, "Don't try to hide it from me. I saw it in the court. You originally wanted to stop Huo Sanniang from seeking death. If you could stop her with your own ability, It’s a trivial matter at all, but you finally stopped, why is that?”
"I'm unhappy, half because of what I said to Mr. Zhong, and the other half because of Huo Sanniang." Fang Zilan sighed and whispered: "You are right, it was me who hesitated."
"If Huo Sanniang hadn't sued Lu Tang and others with her life in court, I'm afraid this matter wouldn't have been settled easily." A Wan held Fang Zilan's hand and comforted her softly, "I don't think you did anything wrong. "
"My hesitation is not because I'm afraid that the matter will be difficult to resolve, but because I feel that Huo Sanniang doesn't want to live anymore, so I shouldn't force her." Fang Zilan returned and held Awan's hand, "Awan, you are still young and don't understand the affairs between men and women. . Just remember, don’t tie your life to one man.”
Awan let go of his hand angrily, with a helpless look on his face, "You are still talking about me, so aren't you betting your whole life on the young master?"
"I have bet my whole life, but I am not betting on him. I want to find a way for myself." Fang Zilan said and touched Awan's head, "Young master is kind to me, so I will do it for him." work."
"What if..." Awan seemed to have mustered up a lot of courage and asked in one breath, "I mean what if the young master deceives you like Lu Tang did to Huo Sanniang, what should you do? ?”
"Then I will kill him." Fang Zilan answered without hesitation, leaving Awan stunned.
"Did I hear you correctly? You said..." Awan suddenly covered her mouth with a look of disbelief on her face.
Then she asked as if she was remembering something: "What if he lied to you and caused you to lose the life of your loved one?"
Fang Zilan still said without hesitation: "Then I will kill him first, and then I will fulfill their wishes for my closest relatives and loved ones."
"You actually..." Awan's eyes widened in disbelief, "Won't you commit suicide?"
Fang Zilan looked at Awan's almost exaggerated expression with some humor, "Why should I commit suicide? Even if I die, I can't exchange for their lives, can I?"
"Then Huo Sanniang, why is she seeking death?" Awan looked at Fang Zilan in confusion, fully expecting her to give him an explanation.
Unexpectedly, she just smiled and said, "Because she is not me. If it were me, I would not seek death to take advantage of Lu Tang. However, if it were me, I would not be in this situation."
Awan calmed down, shook her head and said: "Fang Zilan, you are really terrible. I am not you. I just think that Huo Sanniang is also a sexy woman. She is respected for her courage to love and hate."
"What you said is not bad." Fang Zilan nodded thoughtfully, "Huo Sanniang is so decisive and not something ordinary people can do."
As she spoke, she suddenly held her forehead and sat down on the bed suddenly, her whole body trembling involuntarily.
Upon seeing this, Awan crouched down and grabbed her wrist, feeling her pulse attentively, but her expression became tense for a moment, "You took medicine this morning to suppress the poison, but the poison Shangguan Fei gave you should not be underestimated. If the two collide, I'm afraid you won't feel well these days."
"It doesn't matter, at least now that the matter is over, I can rest for a few days." Fang Zilan's face was as pale as paper, and Awan felt cold as she held her hand.
After a long while, Fang Zilan slowly said: "Awan, let's just forget about the medicine you mentioned to me a few days ago."
A Wan's expression darkened a bit, "You still have the nerve to say that you are either injured or poisoned. Even if you become a medicine doll, you won't be able to afford it."
"No, if you make a medicine puppet, I'm afraid you'll fall in front of me. It's better not to do it." Fang Zilan agreed casually, but Awan jumped in anger, "You can't say such unlucky words. As long as I'm here, it will definitely be a success." I want you to live a long life!”
Fang Zilan reluctantly raised her lips, "Okay, it's settled."
"Don't hold on." Awan sighed, took out the silver needle and prepared to acupuncture her, "You have a good sleep, and you don't have to worry about the sky falling. I will guard it for you. If you don't succeed, please ask the young master to guard it for you. "
"Silly girl." She allowed Awan to move, feeling a little warm in her heart.
I don't know when she started to feel attached to this world. Maybe it was just because people are greedy for life and afraid of death, or maybe it was because she couldn't let go.
