Seeing Fang Zilan's expression change, Hongtai chuckled, "Don't you think that King Yucheng has an ulterior motive for coming to Fu Congnan's birthday banquet this time?"
"What's the purpose?" Fang Zilan pretended not to know, and Hongtai looked at her with interest, "It's already this time, are you still pretending to be confused with me?"
Awan looked at the two people playing riddles and said in confusion: "What are you talking about? Why can't I understand a word? Aren't we here for Master Fang Lihui? What does it have to do with King Yucheng?"
"Then I have to ask Madam Crown Prince." Hongtai smiled and looked a little more serious. "How many days can King Yucheng survive with your made-up list in his hand?"
"How many days you can live depends on the ability of King Yucheng." Fang Zilan said quietly: "And the ability of the master."
"Are you so sure that I will stick with you till the end and never regret it?" Hongtai's expression turned cold, and Fang Zilan snorted coldly, "If you regret it, you won't be here today."
She said, her voice lowered a bit, "Where is King Yucheng?"
"Fell into a trap." Hongtai said lightly, but Fang Zilan's face turned pale, "What did you say?"
"Don't worry, you won't die." Hongtai raised his eyebrows, "At most, it's just being locked up with your unlucky cousin, but it can save us a lot of trouble."
Fang Zilan finally understood and said in a deep voice: "Did you do it on purpose?"
"Yes." Hongtan admitted naturally, "If you have a better way, you might as well give it a try."
Fang Zilan's hands hidden in her sleeves clenched into fists, "If something happens to King Yucheng..."
As soon as she opened her mouth, she heard the noise of people coming from far away. She couldn't help but pulled Awan and Hongtai over and hid aside. Unexpectedly, she was pushed by Hongtai, "Mrs. Shizi, I just hid." Why are you following me to hide, don't you want to find Fang Lihui?"
Fang Zilan's expression froze, and she allowed Hongtai to push her and Awan out. Then she saw the secret door was opened, and standing outside the door was Fu Congnan and his soldiers.
"Mrs. Crown Prince." The moment Fu Congnan saw the person inside clearly, he showed an expression as if it was you. "But the reception in the house is not good, how could Madam Prince come here..."
"Here?" Fang Zilan interrupted Fu Congnan, "Is there anything wrong with this place?"
Fu Congnan was stunned for a moment, and then heard Fang Zilan continue talking to himself, "I saw that the scenery here is very beautiful, so I came to enjoy it with the prince. But I didn't know that there was a mystery hidden here. The prince was so good, he was actually in front of me. Disappeared. General Fu, do you know what happened?"
"Prince?" Fu Congnan broke into a cold sweat unnoticeably, "Mrs. Crown Prince, are you talking about Prince Yucheng?"
Fang Zilan smiled coldly, "Otherwise General Fu thinks that among the distinguished guests here today, who else can be honored as a prince?"
Fu Congnan hurriedly bowed and said, "I'll send someone to look for her right now. I also invite Madam Prince to sit in the hall and wait for the good news."
"No need, the prince is of high status, General Fu and I will look for him together." Fang Zilan said, and without waiting for Fu Congnan's reaction, he ordered Awan: "Go back to the hall and tell Lord Zhuge, lest he can't see anyone, how much will it cost?" Worry."
"Yes." A Wan left in response. Fu Congnan didn't want to stop him, nor did he stop him. He could only hold on to a smile, "Mrs. Crown Prince, this is my house after all, and I am more familiar with it. Find the prince... …”
"General Fu wants to send me away?" Fang Zilan intercepted Fu Congnan's last words, and the smile on his face became stiffer and stiffer, "That's not what I meant, it's just..."
He paused, then quietly gestured to the soldiers behind him with his hands, and the secret door suddenly closed.
"Miss Zhen, are you really the Crown Prince's wife?" Fu Congnan still had a smile on his face, but with a more sinister tone, "Or let me ask this question differently, are you really Miss Fang San?"
Fang Zilan looked at Fu Congnan calmly, "If I am not Miss Fang San, who does General Fu think I am?"
"Miss Zhen, the matter of substitute marriage cannot be foolproof. If Prince Zhongzheng knew that the person he married was not Miss Fang San, but someone else..." Fu Congnan said in a drawl: "Do you think everyone in Prince Zhongzheng's palace will know this? Give up? Is there still a way for the Fang family to survive?"
"Why can't I understand a word of what General Fu is talking about?" Fang Zilan's expression turned cold, "What kind of substitute marriage..."
"Miss Zhen, even if you deny it, it's too late." Fu Congnan laughed out loud as if he had heard some joke, "When His Majesty was still His Royal Highness Prince Xiang, he asked to marry Miss Fang San. He was so affectionate and envious. How can others watch her marry Prince Zhongzheng and remain a widow now?"
There was a playful look in his eyes, "Before, I was curious about the reason why the troops attacked Lincheng. It turned out that it was to exchange for Miss Zhen for you to marry into Prince Zhongzheng's palace. It's a pity that you broke into the Jiangnan camp alone for His Majesty. In the end, he was sold to the Miluo people..."
"So General Fu looks at me like this." Fang Zilan raised her lips, but there was a layer of frost in her eyes, "In that case, I might as well make peace with you. I, Fang Zilan, the third lady of the Fang family, Li Shengxuan The person he once asked to marry was also the person he sold into Miluo. I am here today because of Fang Lihui."
After she finished speaking, she ignored Fu Congnan's shocked expression, pulled out the short knife hidden on her body, and pointed it directly at his chest, "If you are wise, hand over Fang Lihui. Otherwise, I don't mind turning your birthday into your death anniversary."
People are always reluctant to expose their shortcomings, so when Fang Zilan revealed everything, whether it was true or false, he had won most of the victory in terms of momentum.
What's more, Fang Zilan's words are not false. She has always been so daring.
Hongtai, who was hiding in the dark, watched coldly, feeling sad for no reason. She had reached this point and could only use herself as a bargaining chip.
"Miss Fang San?" Fu Congnan repeated the title playfully, "The third Miss Fang family who is rumored to be hiding in the boudoir and is extremely weak?"
"It's good that I hide in the boudoir, but it may not be true that I am weak." Fang Zilan knew what Fu Congnan was thinking without having to guess. In his mind, Miss Fang San and Mrs. Zhen of Qianjinfang could not be the same person.
It doesn't matter which one is true or false. What she wants to do now is to delay time. After Awan recruits everyone and makes the matter bigger, the chance of taking Fang Lihui away will be greater.
So she simply said: "If I am really so delicate, why does Li Shengxuan ask to marry me? He is a man who wants to be the master of the world, and he must not make any mistakes, let alone such a big thing as marrying a wife?"
There was a hint of suspicion in Fu Congnan's eyes, and Fang Zilan saw it clearly and added fuel to the fire: "Did General Fu, after hearing too many rumors, think that Li Shengxuan was just a young man?"
