"I don't want to!" Pei Xuanchang's little head shook like a rattle. Fang Zilan stroked the top of his hair and said warmly: "My sister was also wrong about what happened just now. She was too reckless. I apologize to you."
"It doesn't matter." Pei Xuanchang waved his hand, "I also did something wrong. I shouldn't call people randomly."
Fang Zilan looked at the well-behaved person in front of her and wanted to say something else, when she saw Mrs. Pei turning back and trying to take the person away angrily.
However, Zheng Yan's knife was still standing upright, and Mrs. Pei did not dare to step forward, so she had to shout: "Chang'er, let's go!"
Pei Xuanchang nodded, waved goodbye to Fang Zilan, "Goodbye, sister."
Fang Zilan straightened up and waved to Pei Xuanchang, signaling Zheng Yan to put away the knife.
Seeing that there was no threat of force, Mrs. Pei immediately reached out and grabbed Pei Xuanchang and dragged him away.
"Master Fang..." Mrs. Wang walked over with a sneer and said hesitantly: "There are some refreshments prepared in the front hall. Do you want to go over and use some?"
"Okay, could you please Mrs. Wang to lead the way." Fang Zilan nodded slightly, and then took Awan, Xiao Xuan'er and Zheng Yan to the front hall with Mrs. Wang.
On the way, Mrs. Wang stopped talking several times, and Fang Zilan said calmly, "I disturbed the flower party today, will Mrs. Wang blame me?"
"Master Fang, what are you talking about? The Flower Club is very good, very good..." Cold sweat broke out on Mrs. Wang's forehead, thinking that the generals around her even showed their weapons, killing people without any scruples. Be casual, who dares to say anything else?
"Since Mrs. Wang said this, I'm relieved." Fang Zilan looked at the stiff-looking Mrs. Wang with a smile but not a smile, and only heard her say: "It doesn't matter, Sir Fang, don't worry."
A Wan next to her might have laughed out loud if she hadn't been caught by Xiao Xuan'er. After finally reaching the front hall, she saw Mrs. Wang leaving, so she leaned into Fang Zilan's ear and said, "Why is Mrs. Wang so afraid of you?"
"Who knows." Fang Zilan replied in a low voice, then took the tea cup at hand and took a sip.
Awan curled her lips, feeling bored, so she said hello to Fang Zilan, and took Xiao Xuan'er to the garden to enjoy the flowers.
Fang Zilan looked at their backs and shook her head involuntarily. She knew why Mrs. Wang was afraid of her, and her purpose was exactly the same, not only for Mrs. Wang, but also for everyone.
I just wonder if what happened today reaches the ears of Lord Guo Guo, will he be that scared at all?
However, what Fang Zilan didn't know was that after Pei Juanqing learned about this, she was not only scared, but also angry.
In the study room of Pei Mansion after the flower party, Pei Pening's wife stood cautiously behind Pei Xuanchang, wanting to hide. However, no matter how she shrank, Pei Xuanchang's small figure could not block her at all, let alone Pei Juqing's sharp eyes.
"Chang'er, please go out first." After Pei Juanqing said that, the attendant took Pei Xuanchang out of the study with great eyes.
Mrs. Pei listened to the doctor outside as if facing an enemy, and subconsciously turned her head to take a look. However, the study door was closed tightly, and she could not see anything except a blurry shadow.
"Have you seen enough?" Pei Juqing's voice came from behind her, making her tremble. She turned around suddenly, forced out a smile and said, "Well, I checked on the way back. Chang'er is fine..."
Pei Juqing snorted coldly, "If something happens to Chang'er, do you think you can still stand here properly?"
"I..." Mrs. Pei knelt straight on the ground, "Brother, I really didn't expect Mr. Fang to take action. I..."
"Didn't expect that?" Pei Juqing said coldly: "You don't know who Fang Zilan is?"
"But I think she is a woman after all, and she would never kill a child, let alone a child who can appear at the flower party, must be..." Under Pei Juqing's gaze, Mrs. Pei's voice became lower and lower until she spoke. It's almost inaudible at the end.
"Fang Zilan is a living hell no less than Wei Subaru. How can he care about who he kills?" Pei Juanqing said angrily: "I asked you to use Chang'er to force Fang Zitong to submit. I didn't ask you to gamble with Chang'er's life. You When you saw Fang Zilan taking action, why didn't you step forward to stop him?"
"Master Fang is surrounded by generals who are all armed with weapons. How dare I..." Mrs. Pei said in a slightly higher tone, with a sense of being forced into helplessness.
"Don't you dare to just watch my Chang'er in danger?" Pei Juqing interrupted her sharply, "You are greedy for life and afraid of death, but you are worthy of being my Pei family's woman?"
Hearing this, Mrs. Pei opened her mouth and finally said, "Brother, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me..."
"Spare you?" Pei Juqing raised the corners of her lips and smiled coldly and cruelly, "From the moment you married into the Pei family, it should have been clear that everything must come first with the Pei family. If you can't do that, don't blame me for being ruthless. .”
"Brother..." Mrs. Pei's face was full of horror, but Pei Juqing didn't even want to give her another look. He raised his hand, and the people around him dragged her down.
"Fang Zilan..." Pei Juqing recited the name silently, recalling the way Fang Zitong protected his little sister Fang Zilan in every possible way during the boat painting on the Lantern Festival night.
Thinking of this, he waved, and a black shadow quietly appeared behind him, "Fang Zilan, Duke of Yue Kingdom, do she and Miss Fang San just have the same name?"
"Yes." The shadow said in a deep voice: "The Empress Dowager in the palace checked for a long time and determined that it was just the same name and the appearance was somewhat similar."
"Have you checked?" Pei Juqing asked, and the shadow replied: "You have checked, and the conclusion is the same as the Empress Dowager."
Pei Juqing said thoughtfully: "In that case, why does Fang Zilan want to help Fang Zitong?"
The black shadow said slowly: "Fang Zilan was assisted by the Queen's decree when Wei Changtai rebelled. At that time, Qiu Shui, who was beside the Queen, had a secret conversation with her and wanted her to do something."
"Do something..." Pei Juqing chewed these words over and over again, thinking about it. If it were just a matter of reciprocating a favor, Fang Zilan wouldn't be a problem.
"Go and tell them, don't be too harsh." As soon as Pei Juanqing finished speaking, she heard a woman's scream coming from the courtyard, which was obviously Pei Pening's wife.
"What do you mean, sir?" The black shadow hesitated a little, and Pei Juanqing took the time to say, "Prepare a generous gift for her to send to the Yue Duke's Mansion tomorrow to make amends."
"Yes." The black shadow responded and disappeared in an instant.
As for Pei Pening's wife, she felt mixed emotions when she heard that Pei Juqing asked her to prepare a gift and go to the Yue Duke's Mansion to apologize. I don't know whether it should be said that Fang Zilan saved her, or that Pei Juqing only shows mercy when people are of use value.
But fortunately, the family method was only half done, so she could still pretend to be nonchalant and go out tomorrow, otherwise...
She let out a long sigh, then with the help of the maid, she checked the gift list with her injured body, and boarded the gate of the Yue Kingdom Palace early the next morning. However, before she could explain her purpose, she was blocked by Zheng Yan.
