"This is the Ministry of War, please don't embarrass us, Mr. Fang!" the leading guard shouted boldly. Fang Zilan was unmoved at all and still took a step forward. His body almost touched the tip of the sword, which shocked the guard's hand. Shaking, he almost couldn't hold the sword in his hand.
"This is Mr. Fang..." The guards on the side looked embarrassed and involuntarily retreated away from Fang Zilan and Awan.
Fang Zilan stopped and said loudly: "Master Wei Yi, why don't you want to meet me?"
Before she could finish her words, she saw a man walking out with a sinister look on his face, "Master Fang has such great authority, could it be that he regards my Ministry of War as your government office?"
"Master Wei Yi, what you said is wrong." Fang Zilan's lips curled up slightly, but there was no smile in her eyes. "The government office is not mine, and the Ministry of War is not yours. However, looking at the soldiers in the courtyard, Master Wei Yi will have This statement is not surprising."
Wei Yi quickly realized what she was implying, and his face became even more ugly, "Master Fang, you broke into the Ministry of War for no reason first, and now you accuse me of controlling the Ministry of War with government soldiers. What are your intentions?"
Fang Zilan sighed, waved her hands and said, "I didn't say anything."
Wei Yi snorted coldly, "Master Liang Fang doesn't have the guts to openly provoke our... military department." He was halfway through his words, and changed his voice almost abruptly.
Fang Zilan felt something strange that could not be explained, and immediately tried: "Master Wei Yi, as the Duke of Yue, my position is much higher than yours. Your attitude towards me is not an exaggeration." Bar?"
Wei Yi couldn't bear to say anything, and Fang Zilan thought to herself: "It's the Duke of Wei, Lord Wei Subaru, who saw me..."
"Shut up!" Wei Yi's face was full of resentment, "That bastard, is he worthy of being called a lord?"
Fang Zilan secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She finally knew where her weird feeling came from.
Wei Yi is domineering, not only because he is the Minister of War, Wei Yi, who regards the Ministry of War as his own territory, but also because he imagines himself to be the head of the Wei family. Every word and deed represents the honor of the Wei family, so naturally he does not tolerate others.
In his mind, he should be the Duke of Wei, not a humble person like Wei Subaru.
Fang Zilan calmed her expression. Even if she stopped talking, Wei Yi couldn't suppress the soldiers in the courtyard.
As expected, Wei Yi's words only lasted a moment, and the soldiers in the courtyard looked at each other, and then it was as if a pot had exploded, and all the voices were dissatisfied.
Most of the people in the army were not from noble backgrounds. In their eyes, achievements made with real swords and guns were far more important than blood. Even if there are only government soldiers in the courtyard, this is no exception.
What's more, they are the soldiers of the Wei family. How can they allow someone to openly insult their own family leader, the Duke of Wei, Wei Subaru?
With the military talisman in hand, Wei Yi could easily mobilize his troops, but if the troops he wanted to mobilize would obey him, he simply couldn't do it.
Fang Zilan looked coldly at the commotion in the courtyard and pulled Awan back to the door.
Awan looked at the situation in the courtyard in disbelief and said: "How many brainless people can say such things in public? Isn't Mr. Wei Yi a fool?"
"It's not that stupid." Fang Zilan commented: "More like a madman who can't get what he wants."
Awan thought about it for a while before he understood what she meant, "You mean the title and position of Duke Wei?"
Fang Zilan nodded, and Awan frowned and said, "But he is already the Minister of the Ministry of War. Even among the children of aristocratic families, it is a very high official rank."
"The human heart is easily moved, and greed is boundless." Fang Zilan's eyes were filled with coldness, "In your eyes, the Minister of War is an important minister in the court, but in Wei Yi's eyes, even if you get it, it is nothing."
Awan couldn't help but exclaimed, "How could that happen?"
"The Wei family has been in control of the Ministry of War for a long time. Wei Yi is not only the direct son of Duke Wei, but also the most favored among the many children of the Wei family." Fang Zilan took a moment and said: "In his heart, he should be the Duke of Wei. Not to mention the Minister of the Ministry of War?"
"It's true that people are so incompetent." A Wan clicked her tongue, looked at Fang Zilan and said, "Then what are we waiting here for now? Watching a show?"
"Of course not." Fang Zilan shrugged, "The military talisman is in Wei Yi's hand, I want to get it."
Awan asked curiously: "It's all turned into a mess, how are you going to get it?"
"So I'm waiting." Fang Zilan explained while looking at Wei Yi dodging in the crowd: "Waiting for a chance to save Wei Yi."
"Not to mention whether you can lead him to escape from the chaos of swords, but you actually expect him to reciprocate his kindness and take the initiative to give you the military talisman?" Awan said in shock: "Just now you said he was a madman..."
"There is no hope." Fang Zilan sighed, "But now there is no other way. Unless His Majesty personally issues the decree, how can Wei Yi recognize the facts?"
A Wan looked worried and was about to say something when she heard a uniform sound of armored armor, and then a loud female voice said: "Pass the Queen's decree!"
Hearing this, both Fang Zilan and Awan were stunned, Queen?
The door of the Ministry of War was pushed fully open. Qiu Shui, who was beside Fang Ziqin, was dressed in a female official's court uniform. She held a imperial edict in her hand and said calmly and proudly: "The Queen has an edict. The Minister of the Ministry of War, Wei Yi, uses military talismans privately to control the Ministry of War and temporarily detains the Ministry of Punishment." Prison, we will deal with it after His Majesty returns to Beijing. Come, take it away!"
After she said that, the guards behind her swarmed up, dispersed the soldiers in the courtyard, and brought Guard Yi out.
Wei Yi looked dull and murmured: "How is it possible... I want to see His Majesty!"
"After Your Majesty returns to the capital, whether you want to see Master Wei or not is another matter." Qiu Shui said sternly: "Master Wei, please take care of yourself."
"You..." Wei Yi wanted to say something more, but was dragged away by the guards before he could speak.
After the dust settled, Fang Zilan bowed respectfully to Qiu Shui, "Thank you, Miss Qiu Shui."
Qiu Shui hurriedly returned the greeting and said, "Master Fang, you have offended me. I was just following your orders. Master Fang, please take a step to speak."
Fang Zilan nodded slightly and walked with Qiu Shui to a quiet corner where there was no one around, "I wonder if Miss Qiu Shui has any advice?"
"I dare not give advice in front of Lord Fang, but the Queen asked me to bring something to Lord Fang." Qiu Shui's expression softened slightly, "The Queen said that in a wealthy family with many children, if the head of the family is moody and biased, it is easy to ruin people. A crazy person who destroys himself. The queen is afraid that Mr. Fang will not care about herself, so she is doing something unnecessary. I hope Mr. Fang will not take offense. "
Fang Zilan was silent for a long time and then said: "The Queen knows about Lord Wei Yi?"
"I know." Qiu Shui nodded and said, "My Majesty knows everything about the big families in the capital. Mr. Wei Yi has been held in the palm of his hand since he was a child. He has everything he wants. Suddenly, someone took everything away from him. It is reasonable for his mentality to be unbalanced. "
"Is it just an imbalance of mentality?" Fang Zilan's voice was very soft, but Qiu Shui still heard it, "Master Fang may not know that generations of Dukes of Wei have violent tempers, and they often beat and scold their children at home. The punishments were very severe. In the past, There have been deaths. Over time, the children in the family have become somewhat different..."
She said with a weakened voice, "He is the current Lord Wei Guogong..."
She didn't say anything further, but Fang Zilan knew clearly in her heart that even Wei Subaru was also a madman, wasn't he?
