"Master." Fang Zilan said quietly, her voice a little bitter, "I'm leaving, please take care of yourself."
After saying that, she broke away from Ji Ningtian's hand, stood up and walked out the door without looking back. Her steps were unsteady, but there was no hesitation.
When King Chakravartin saw Fang Zilan coming out, he breathed a sigh of relief and reached out to support her, "Does it hurt?"
"It's okay." Fang Zilan smiled and held his arm, "As long as I can let you come with me, it's worth it."
"You." The Wheel King raised the corners of his lips, "As long as you open your mouth, will there ever be a time when I don't follow you?"
Fang Zilan did not continue the question with him and said with relief: "Let's go home."
"Okay." The Wheel King nodded slightly, but his eyes fell on Wu Qing who was still kneeling outside.
Seeing this, Fang Zilan tugged on his sleeve and said, "If you meddle in other people's business, I'm afraid the young master will be punished even more severely."
"Zi Xiu is right." Wu Qing said expressionlessly: "If nothing happens, you two should leave as soon as possible."
"Wu Qing, you are the daughter of the former Zhenbei General, King Pingnan. There is no need to be so groveling." Fang Zilan said in a tone of resentment. Wu Qing looked at her deeply, and then looked away. "I am willing to do so."
"Really?" Fang Zilan was noncommittal, but she said no more and left Hong'an Pavilion with the Wheel-Winning King.
There is no curfew on Mid-Autumn Festival night, and there are still people walking on the street at this time. The two of them were blending in, not conspicuous.
"Are you testing Wu Qing?" Wheelrunner King said clearly, and Fang Zilan admitted graciously, "Yes. When Mo Han was injured before, he went to check the past of Qin Xuan, and by chance he learned about General Zhenbei. The matter of Prince Pingnan and his wife."
She paused as she spoke, "After King Pingnan was buried in the deep sea, and the princess died in love and left without returning to the capital, how could there be any descendants?"
"But if there are no descendants, who will these old people from the previous dynasty take orders from?" King Chakravartin frowned, "It is impossible for the young master alone to dispatch them."
"So he needs a cover." Fang Zilan said: "Otherwise, why do you think Concubine Shu had to ask him to be engaged to Wu Qing before she died? She knew that this kind of clan relationship was not allowed by law and could easily be annulled."
"But you have no evidence..." The Wheel King suddenly changed his voice mid-sentence, "The pair of jade pendants..."
"What jade pendant?" Fang Zilan was stunned for a moment, then reacted, "You mean the jade pendant that is a token of engagement? Is that really there?"
"Yes." Wheelrunner King said firmly, Fang Zilan asked doubtfully: "How do you know?"
"I also heard what my father said. He said that the pair of jade pendants are the princess's personal belongings and will only be worn by her descendants." Wheelrunner King deliberately lowered his voice, and Fang Zilan also whispered: "There are really descendants. ?”
The Wheel King thought for a while and said: "If Mo Han's information is correct, then I guess the descendants my father mentioned may not be his biological children, but may be the people entrusted to him."
Fang Zilan was silent for a long time and then said: "Young master said that the pair of jade pendants were buried with Concubine Shu."
A look of surprise flashed in the Wheel King's eyes, "Lan Lan, are you thinking..."
"Forget it today." Fang Zilan stopped him, "I'm still injured, so I don't have the strength to explore."
There was a hint of coquettishness in her tone. The Wheel King stopped and knelt down in front of her, "Come up."
"I'm not a child anymore." Fang Zilan looked at his back and muttered softly. However, the next moment she hooked her arms around his neck and said with satisfaction: "Thank you."
Feeling the weight behind him, Chakravartin was in a trance for a moment, as if he had returned to his childhood. The girl who sneaked out of the house wandered too far and lost her way, so he carried her back like this.
The girl slept soundly on his back, and he forgot about the hard work of carrying a heavy load.
"Why don't you speak?" Fang Zilan's voice was close at hand, showing some caution, "Am I too heavy?"
"No." The Wheel King's voice was full of smiles, "Lan Lan, you are too light."
Fang Zilan said "Oh", and the Wheel King turned his head to look at her and asked: "Lan Lan, have you figured out how to arrange for me?"
"Since I want you, of course I have to take you back to my house." Fang Zilan said confidently, "Or do you think my house is not good enough?"
"You know what I'm asking." Although the tone of the Wheel King was helpless, it was more of a favoritism.
"Isn't it just a reason?" Fang Zilan leaned into his ear nonchalantly, "When the time comes, just say..."
The Wheel King listened more and more funny, "Lan Lan, are you sure this is feasible and won't be suspected?"
"No." Fang Zilan affirmed: "I have brought many people back to my house in the past few months, and it is common for outsiders to see them. What's more, your appearance seems normal to me."
"Many people?" Wheelrunner King repeated, and Fang Zilan coughed lightly, "They were all sent away quietly, except for one, Ah Shi, who was asked to leave by Fang Lihui."
She spoke very quickly, fearing that the King of Wheels would misunderstand something, "By the way, I heard that Fang Lihui's Fengyue business has taken over a lot. With their help covering it up, no one will suspect it."
"Cover up?" Wheelrunner King raised his eyebrows, and Fang Zilan reacted suddenly, and simply said nonchalantly: "If you don't like the method I said, then come up with an excuse yourself, and I will cooperate with you."
"What are you talking about that I don't like?" The Wheel King pretended to sigh reluctantly, "That's it."
So the two of them walked to the door of the Duke of Yue's Mansion. When they saw A Wan and Mo Han arguing, Xiao Xuan'er trying to dissuade them, and Zheng Yan looking like a door god, one pretended to be drunk and the other pretended to be aggrieved.
"Sister Lan!" "Master Fang!"
The four people came quickly, and when they saw the Chakravartin King carrying Fang Zilan on his back, they had different expressions. Before they could say anything, they saw Fang Zilan on his back reaching out and grabbing a handful in the air, "Good wine, another bottle!" "Obviously drunk.
Awan bit her lip, with an expression that was hard to explain, but she heard Mo Han say without changing his expression: "Thank you so much for sending Sister Lan back. I wonder which building this guy is from? I will send someone to send money there tomorrow." .”
His words were too polite, which made the Wheel-turning King stunned for a while, "I..." He hesitated, looking a bit offended.
A Wan was confused. King Chakravartin seemed to have made up his mind and said in one breath: "Master Fang said that he wanted to take me into his residence. He just paid the deposit in the building. I am committed to her for the rest of my life. None of you can do anything." I want to turn against you and refuse to admit it!"
Fang Zilan clenched her fingers into fists, and it took a lot of effort not to laugh out loud, but the ups and downs of her body were still hard to ignore.
"Sister Lan seems to be a little unwell..." Mo Han forced himself to calm down and said: "In that case, you go to the house first, and we will talk about the rest after Sister Lan wakes up."
The Wheel King carried Fang Zilan on his back and swaggered into the Duke of Yue's mansion. The people around him, whether they were pedestrians or followers, were secretly saying that the Duke of Yue was indulgent and shameless.
Awan finally understood and chased after her with gritted teeth, "You're new here, wait a minute, Mr. Fang's house is not over there, don't wander around!"
