"On New Year's Eve, the Xu family was wiped out because of me." The smile on Fang Zilan's face became even brighter, but it revealed an unspeakable gloominess. "As for why I did this, Mr. Yin should be well aware of the reason. .”
Yin Quanzhang couldn't stop trembling, "What did you say?"
"His Majesty has an order to serve as a secret envoy to go to Jiangnan in the next year to investigate corruption cases." Fang Zilan deliberately lowered his voice and said meaningfully: "My young master is willing to protect you, Master Yin, please don't be ignorant."
Yin Quanzhang's hands hidden in his sleeves were clenched into fists. From the master of the ghost sect, to the master of the ghost sect, and then to my master, in just a few sentences, Fang Zilan had changed his three titles, but each one was more interesting than the last. Familiar and intimate, every word seems to indicate that she and the mysterious young master do have an affair, and that she and she are on the same side.
But if this is true, who was the man in her room last night? It can't be the young master who is supposed to be in the capital...
"Master Yin, that's all I have to say." Fang Zilan said and stood up, "I hope you can take care of yourself."
"Miss Zhen, please stay." Yin Quanzhang hurriedly called out to Fang Zilan, his attitude much better than before, "I heard Mr. Fang say that the grand finale of this Spring Party..."
"Master Yin finally got to the point." Fang Zilan chuckled, intercepting what Yin Quanzhang said later, "Since Master Yin is asking the question sincerely, I can't just say nothing."
She sat back again and said paradoxically: "In the final treasure, there is indeed the news that Master Yin wants, but I don't know what Master Yin can exchange for it."
She said "can", not "will". Yin Quanzhang looked serious and said, "Please give me some advice from Miss Zhen."
"I dare not take it seriously, as long as Mr. Yin knows that I am not doing this business just for myself." Fang Zilan straightened his sleeves and said slowly: "As for the price of the final treasure, I cannot decide it alone."
Her overtone was obvious. No matter what the three final pieces of news about Dabao were, they were all a deal that Master Guimen, that is, the noble man in the capital, wanted to make with Yin Quanzhang. If he refused to cooperate or come up with a capable order, If the price is satisfactory, then his handle will most likely be revealed, his life or death is uncertain, and the outcome is unpredictable.
Sure enough, after hearing Fang Zilan's words, Yin Quanzhang couldn't help but change his expression, "If I don't..."
"Master Yin, I'm just a middleman. Even if I know the key, I can't help you with anything." Fang Zilan interrupted Yin Quanzhang in a deep voice, "But I can give you a piece of advice - some words, it's best to think them through before speaking. , otherwise I’m afraid I’ll regret it later.”
After saying that, she stood up, Shi Shiran saluted, and then pushed the door open without looking back. Ming Xiang followed her and left together.
"Master Fang." Yin Quanzhang looked at Fang Lihui with a face as deep as water and said, "You invited Miss Qianjinfang Zhen, and you also entertained her when she paid her respects at the top of the mountain..."
Before he continued, Fang Lihui hurriedly added: "When Miss Zhen entered the building, everyone in Zuiyue Tower carefully checked her invitation. There is absolutely no possibility of forgery. She must be from Qianjinfang."
"It's just an invitation." Yin Quanzhang snorted coldly, but didn't say anything more to question it. Even he knew very well that there was absolutely no possibility that Zuiyuelou's invitation could be copied.
"When Miss Zhen worshiped the mountain, her skill and courage were obvious to all." Fang Lihui continued talking to himself, "If she is not Zixiu, then which other girl in the world..."
"That's enough." Yin Quanzhang's cold voice stopped Fang Lihui's words, "Even if she is really Zixiu, she may not be Zixiu from Qianjinfang."
Fang Lihui pursed his lips and remained silent, but Mr. Liu on the side couldn't help but said: "But Qianjinfang works secretly, and no one in the world really knows..."
Yin Quanzhang stabbed him in the eye, and Mr. Liu did not dare to continue talking. Fang Lihui said curiously: "Mr. Liu, I heard that you have a good relationship with the Daomen Huo family, but I have never heard of you having a good relationship with the Zi family." What's the point of showing off? Now this is..."
"It has nothing to do with you." Mr. Liu's expression turned cold and he said sternly: "But Mr. Fang, you are a little too trusting in a strange woman you have never met before."
Fang Lihui opened the folding fan in his hand and shook it gently, "As much as I trust Mr. Liu, I also trust Miss Zhen."
Hearing this, Mr. Liu was about to refute when he heard Yin Quanzhang say: "Okay, don't argue anymore. Mr. Liu, go and keep an eye on Cui Hai, who has been looking for Miss Zhen, and don't let go of every move. As for Mr. Fang, …”
He paused and said with a serious expression: "You stay, I have something to tell you."
Soon, only Fang Lihui and Yin Quanzhang were left in the private room. Neither of them spoke. In the end, Yin Quanzhang couldn't hold his breath and said, "What Miss Zhen said just now, do you think how much is true or how false?"
"They are all mostly true." Fang Lihui said without hesitation: "The only one who is false is probably the Zhen family of Qianjinfang."
"What do you mean?" Yin Quanzhang looked at Fang Lihui almost critically. He did not dodge, but met his eyes. "If the leader of the Ghost Sect is a powerful person in the capital, Zixiu and Qianjinfang will be at his mercy. Then the name of the Qianjinfang Zhen family known to the world is probably an illusion created intentionally by him."
Yin Quanzhang was stunned, and Fang Lihui said directly: "Zixiu never survives any attack, why would Zhen make an exception?"
While he was washing up, Li Shengxuan came back again, holding a food box in his hand, "I just saw Fang Lihui."
Fang Zilan didn't respond, just wiped her hands dry and sat at the table, "Did Fang Lihui say anything to you?"
"No, Yin Quanzhang's servants are here too." Li Shengxuan placed the food in front of Fang Zilan and said, "However, Fang Lihui doesn't look good."
Fang Zilan took a sip of porridge carelessly, "Since Yin Quanzhang is here, then don't show up if you can. If he recognizes you, it will be a lot of trouble."
"I know." Li Shengxuan said quietly: "I will go take care of Xia Houzhang later. I won't show up until the finale, Dabao, appears."
Fang Zilan hummed and said, "This porridge is good, and the buns that go with it are also delicious."
She said a few words of praise calmly. Li Shengxuan understood and knew someone was coming, so he followed her words.
"Master." Mingxiang's voice came from outside the door. Fang Zilan called to come in, but she was still standing outside the door, "Master, Suzhou Magistrate Master Yin and Mr. Fang invite you to come over."
Ming Xiang's voice came from outside the door. Fang Zilan shouted to come in, but she was still standing outside the door, "Master Yin and Mr. Fang, the magistrate of Suzhou, please come over."
"I know." Fang Zilan hurriedly took two mouthfuls of porridge, "I'll be there right away."
