Shangguan Min and Huangfu Xin looked at Fang Zilan in unison. Her expression was calm, as if she had expected it, and they couldn't control what she meant when they contacted her again... No matter how you look at it, she already knew that Wei Subaru would Appear here.
For a moment, everyone in the ancestral hall focused their attention on Wei Subaru, and finally someone noticed Fang Zilan in the corner, and couldn't help but exclaimed in surprise: "Why are Lord Wei and Lord Yue here?"
Fang Zilan waved her hand and said innocently: "I was just passing by on my way to see your wife back. I have no intention of getting involved in Ouyang's family affairs. Please do what you want."
She shrugged as she spoke, and her eyes fell on Wei Subaru, who happened to also look towards her. The two exchanged looks, one was indifferent and the other was sharp, but both had a decisive undertone.
The Ouyang family members in the ancestral hall looked at each other in shock. Although Fang Zilan said she was sending Wang Lingyuan back, it was clear that Ouyang Zirou was still standing next to her, and she had no intention of handing them back.
As for Wei Subaru, compared to Fang Zilan, his intentions are much more obvious. Judging from what he said when he entered the door just now, he seemed to be supporting Ouyang Wei.
But everyone in the capital didn't know that Wei Subaru was used to doing things based on his likes and dislikes, not to mention that when Duke Xian Wei passed away, he only showed up once, talking about his brother-in-law Wei Changtai and his brother Wei Yi. He dealt with it without even frowning. How could Ouyang Wei be so virtuous and capable of receiving such support from such a person with a shallow relationship and a cold and cold heart?
"Master Wei Guogong, you..." As soon as the head of the Ouyang family's ruling elders started to speak, Wei Subaru stopped him, "The Ouyang Wei family has failed to teach their children well and has paid the price, but you are trying to divorce her. .”
He snorted coldly, "I wonder how on earth my Wei family offended the Ouyang family? That made you even refuse to let go of the deceased."
"Sir Wei, your words are serious." Seeing Wei Subaru's cold face, the head of the law enforcement elders immediately said in panic: "Our move is not against the Wei family, it's just..."
"If that's the case, then I'm relieved." Wei Subaru squinted his eyes with a smile but not a smile, "I would like to thank you all of the Ouyang family for taking care of Ouyang Wei's funeral. I will come to the door and place a candle in front of his soul. fragrant."
Several elders who enforced the law opened their mouths, but did not dare to say anything. They finally nodded and smiled uglier than crying, "Don't worry, Mr. Wei Guogong, things within the Ouyang family should be taken as a matter of course. , not to mention bothering."
Wei Subaru nodded slightly and looked at the old people in front of him with interest, who were hundreds of years old in total. "In today's situation, it's really admirable that you can still talk and laugh. It's really a blessing to have you in the Ouyang family." .”
His words sounded like compliments at first, but after careful consideration, they turned out to be unspeakable sarcasm. The faces of the elders were green and white, and their stiff smiles made them look even more ridiculous.
Fang Zilan couldn't help laughing when she saw this, but she quickly coughed and covered it up.
Wei Subaru glanced at Fang Zilan, then said a few words of condolences to everyone in the Ouyang family, then turned and left. He came and went as quickly as a gust of wind, but the people who stayed there were not as light as him.
Fang Zilan was still watching from the side. It was not good for everyone to stage such ridiculous dramas like intrigues, embarrassments and suspicions. Otherwise, the family would be scandalized.
Simply having several elders who were responsible for the law testify as witnesses completely confirmed Ouyang Juncheng's identity as the new head of the family. After that, the funeral arrangements for the previous head of the family and his wife could be arranged.
Everything was almost sudden but logical. Ouyang Zirou watched blankly until someone came forward to carry Mrs. Ouyang's body. She rushed over and knelt beside Mrs. Ouyang, crying like rain.
Fang Zilan walked over, and no one dared to move. Everyone could only watch helplessly as Ouyang Zirou was crying so hard that she was out of breath and almost fainting. They stepped forward to dissuade her, nor to comfort her.
Shangguan Min pursed his lips and grabbed Huangfuxin who was trying to step forward. He could understand Ouyang Zirou's mood better than anyone else. She lost all her loved ones overnight, saw tigers and wolves everywhere, looked around blankly, and felt as cold as ice.
No one can bring her out of this isolated and helpless situation, except herself.
Fang Zilan patted Ouyang Zirou's shoulder gently, but Ouyang Zongrui suddenly said from the side: "Mei Rou, I'm sorry..."
Hearing this, Fang Zilan felt her heart getting angry. She flew up to Ouyang Zongrui, pinched his neck fiercely, and cut off the rest of his words.
"I'm sorry? These are the three most useless words in the world." Fang Zilan said coldly: "Can your gentle apology erase the pain and hurt Zi Rou has suffered?"
Ouyang Zongrui struggled hard, his face flushed red and veins bulging, but he couldn't escape the feeling of suffocation, the murderous intent rushing towards him, and the imminent death. The fear of annihilation swallowed up all his senses and was a despair he had never experienced before.
Seeing Ouyang Zongrui's breath weakening, Fang Zilan let go of his hand, "Killing you will only dirty my hands. You don't deserve to die so easily."
Before she finished speaking, she heard a muffled sound. Looking back, she saw Ouyang Zirou kowtowing three times to Mrs. Ouyang's body. Her hands, wrapped in snow-white gauze, were folded in front of her forehead. In the blink of an eye, it was all red. .
"Zirou..." Fang Zilan's expression was dark and unclear. Before she could go over to help her, she saw Ouyang Zirou standing up and walking towards her.
She stretched out her hand, but didn't even touch the corner of Ouyang Zirou's clothes. She was stunned and a white gauze oozing with blood flashed past, falling directly on Ouyang Zongrui's face, leaving a red mark.
Ouyang Zirou bit her lips tightly, trying to speak but unable to make a sound. Fang Zilan recognized the shape of her mouth, which vaguely said, "From now on, you are no longer my brother."
Ouyang Zongrui seemed to notice it too. His eyes were red and he muttered sorry in a low voice. He was filled with regret but it didn't help.
He lost, he lost everything, only his hands were full of blood, which could not be washed away no matter what. For the rest of my life, I will live in the blood and light, and I will never be able to get out.
Ouyang Zirou turned her back and stopped looking at Ouyang Zongrui. Fang Zilan put his arms around her shoulders, blocking other people's eyes from looking at her, and led her out of the Ouyang family ancestral hall.
Huangfuxin and Shangguanmin followed quickly. Wang Lingyuan looked at their backs and hesitated to speak. Finally, she lowered her eyes, and under the gaze of everyone, she walked to Ouyang Juncheng in a compromising manner and called out "husband" softly.
I don’t know whether it was because of something in his heart or something else. Shangguan Min, who had already reached the door of the ancestral hall, suddenly stopped, turned back to look at Wang Lingyuan and said: "Madam, you are the daughter of the Wang family. The wind and sand in the north have not shaken you at all, let alone the capital." Yunyu?"
Wang Lingyuan nodded heavily, tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. People around her were speculating on Shangguan Min's relationship with her. Seeing that the situation was not right, Huangfuxin hurriedly dragged Shangguan Min away.
As soon as the two of them reached the back alley, they saw Wei Subaru standing under the wall with his arms folded, and Fang Zilan standing opposite him. The two seemed to have something to say. Hearing the commotion, Fang Zilan pushed Ouyang Zirou to the two of them and asked them to go back home first.
