"What are you talking about, Mr. Fang?" King Rong'an pretended to be confused and said, "Why can't I understand you?"
"Don't you understand?" The smile on Fang Zilan's face became brighter, but there was no smile in her eyes. "Since the prince doesn't understand, I will explain it to him carefully. He wants to use Mushan Pass as a bargaining chip to liaise with the pirates. You betrayed your country and sent the fishermen infected with the plague from the fishing islands in the East China Sea to Linjia Village, which caused the pirates to wreak havoc and spread the plague. These princes will not forget it, right?"
King Rong'an glanced at her thoughtfully, then waved away the people around him. When only the two of them were left in the room, he spoke again: "Master Fang's ability to talk nonsense is really good, he can even keep up with Mr. Storyteller." .”
"Your Majesty, you don't want to admit it?" Fang Zilan's smile faded a little, and King Rong'an calmly said: "I have always behaved and sat upright, how could I allow Mr. Fang to slander me like this? Mr. Fang said that I am guilty, so you might as well show him Come with the evidence. If not, it will be a frame-up for Zhongliang and he will be punished."
"Your Majesty wants evidence, so I'll give it to you." Fang Zilan took out a stack of banknotes and placed them in front of King Rongan, "These banknotes came from the Fang Family Bank. I asked someone to check the ticket number and found the original owner. . Your Majesty, you might as well guess who it is?
King Rong'an didn't even raise his eyelids and said quietly: "When the banknotes flow out of the bank, they will pass through the hands of everyone. Who knows whether those hands belong to thieves or powerful people? I can't control the past of these banknotes. I know that now they are in Master Fang’s hands and have become tools to frame me.”
"Trapped the prince?" Fang Zilan suddenly chuckled, "I haven't said who the original owner of these banknotes is, and the prince said that I framed you. Isn't it too early?"
King Rong'an's expression suddenly became colder, "Master Fang said so many things before, but it's not just to say that these banknotes have nothing to do with me, right? I think the results of Master Fang's investigation are either mine or those of my subordinates." It’s human, isn’t it?”
Fang Zilan rested her chin on the table with her hands, getting closer to Prince Rongan, "What the prince said is that these banknotes belong to Mo Bin. I felt something was fishy, so I came to ask the prince in person. an answer."
"Mo Bin?" King Rong'an was stunned for a moment, and then heard Fang Zilan nod: "Yes, I heard that Mo Bin and the prince have never dealt with each other, and this time there is suspicion of rebellion. I was afraid that he was deliberately trying to frame the prince, so I paid attention to investigate. We did some research. However, the people at the Fang Family Bank said that what they checked here may not be accurate, and they need to send a letter to the capital to check again, so it will take a few days."
As she spoke, she lightly tapped the banknotes on the table, "Looking at the prince's reaction, he seems to be completely unaware of this matter. Even if these banknotes are not owned by Mo Bin, they have nothing to do with the prince. But he can come up with such a People who have a lot of money are always either rich or noble. The prince may have some impression, so you might as well take a closer look."
King Rong'an knew that she was interested in testing, so he immediately picked up the banknote and said, "Since Mr. Fang has spoken, I will take a closer look."
"Thank you, Your Majesty." Before Fang Zilan could finish her words, she saw King Rong'an accidentally knocking over the lampstand. The candle flamed out and ignited a corner of the banknote. A panicked voice followed, "Master Fang, be careful!"
Fang Zilan put out the fire on the table without haste. After most of the banknotes were burned, she took it from King Rong'an's hand. The black ash fell down, and she took the remaining incomplete banknotes. It was spread out on the table.
Only then did King Rongan realize that except for the first two pages, the ones below were all white papers. His expression suddenly changed, "Fang Zilan, how dare you deceive me?"
"Is Your Majesty finally willing to show off his flaws?" Fang Zilan said coldly while laying out the paper: "Your Majesty also doesn't think about it. Fang's bank is so famous, how could he reveal information about his guests at will? And even if he did, how could it be plausible? Isn't this kind of behavior just pressing our own golden brand name to the ground and trampling on it?"
King Rong'an had a calm face and said nothing, and Fang Zilan continued speaking on his own, "However, since I am telling these things to the prince, not to your majesty..."
She suddenly paused, and King Rong'an snorted coldly, "I'm sorry you don't have the guts either."
"How did the prince know that I don't have the courage?" Fang Zilan's eyes felt a little cold, but King Rongan laughed suddenly, "Master Fang said that I have done a lot of dirty things, how clean can I be? My People have intercepted the secret letter sent by Mr. Fang to the capital. The symbols in it are in strange shapes, and they are all secret codes of ghosts. I wonder what Mr. Fang’s explanation is?"
Fang Zilan still put her hand on the white paper and wrote lightly: "The prince knows the code words of the ghost sect, which shows that he has a close relationship with the ghost sect..."
"Since you and I are both in the same boat, why do you tell His Majesty what happened to me?" King Rong'an interrupted her impatiently, "Not to mention that you have no evidence, but once you report me, you will be the same again. What good can come of it?"
Fang Zilan took a piece of paper, rubbed the dark edges with her fingers, and seemed to be saying to herself: "Indeed, the dog-eating-dog scene is not pretty."
"What did you say?" King Rongan gritted his teeth and spoke sullenly.
Fang Zilan looked calm, "However, it would be hard to say if one of them admits his crime and is slaughtered by others."
King Rong'an looked at the person in front of him coldly, "Master Fang, do you want to be punished by Lingchi? That won't be a pleasant feeling."
Fang Zilan curled her lips and smiled peacefully, "My lord, do you know what you have done? Even if I don't tell you, Your Majesty will not let you go."
"I know very well what I have done." King Rongan chuckled, "Even so, what does Mr. Fang think your Majesty can do to me?"
"Why not?" Fang Zilan had a sharp look in her eyes, and there was a vague murderous intention in her tone, "Everything the prince has done, one by one, has shaken the foundation of the country..."
"Did I hear you correctly? Mr. Fang, do you want to shake the foundation of the country?" King Rong'an intercepted her words rudely, "If Mr. Fang thinks that killing me will solve all the problems, feel free to tell your majesty."
"I know that killing the prince will also shake the foundation of the country, so I am sitting here today." Fang Zilan looked arrogant, "With my ability, it is easy to kill the prince. Doesn't the prince not know?"
"You..." King Rongan moved his lips, with a clear look of fear on his face.
"The prince has been entrenched in the southeast for many years, and he has a strong foundation. If I kill the prince rashly, I am afraid that the southeast will be in chaos in an instant, and the Miluo people who are watching eagerly will take the opportunity to invade. Isn't the gain more than the loss?" Fang Zilan A cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "So, I originally planned to let the prince linger on the sickbed. This can not only contain the various forces in the southeast, but also prevent the prince from doing evil. Wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?"
She said with a little force on her hand, the white paper in her palm shattered into powder, "But then I thought about it, if I want to keep Mo Bin's family, I still need the prince's help, so I haven't done anything yet. Your prince, my sincerity, Don’t let it down.”
