After the thrilling fight and excessive blood loss, Fang Zilan collapsed on the horse, and soon lost consciousness. However, before unconsciousness, he tied the horse's reins to himself, for fear of falling off the horse and dying on the road.
The old horse knew the way. It carried Fang Zilan, whose life was hanging by a thread, and ran back to the capital. He was stopped by the guards at the gate of the city. Before he could investigate carefully, he saw Xia Houzhang coming in a hurry, "Everyone, get out of the way!"
The guard did not dare to say anything and quickly got out of the way. He watched helplessly as Xia Houzhang took the bloody man off the horse, put him into the carriage, and then drove away in person.
All the guards were dumbfounded. No one in the capital knew that Xia Houzhang was the person next to Li Shengxuan. But for some reason, he suddenly came to guard the city gate in person three days ago, unshakable from morning to night, as if he was afraid of missing something.
Now it seems that what Xia Houzhang is waiting for is the bloody person just now. I wonder who he is that can make him so attracted to him? In other words, it was because Li Shengxuan was so interested.
However, curiosity is curiosity, and no one dares to inquire about anything at will because of their longevity, and they all quickly dispersed, as if nothing had happened.
Xia Houzhang drove his car and rushed into the palace and sent Fang Zilan into Fengyi Palace. When Fang Ziqin saw her appearance, she took a few steps back in shock and almost lost her balance.
"Empress!" Qiu Shui supported Fang Ziqin and heard her voice tremble slightly, but it was full of power that could not be ignored, "Send the third lady in and call Wen Ya over quickly. Also, let's say something happened to Fengyi Palace. Assassin, the third lady blocked the knife for me, life or death is uncertain."
"Go quickly." Qiu Shui shouted to the maids in the palace, and they all bowed and retreated.
Xia Houzhang sent Fang Zilan in. Fang Ziqin looked at their backs and whispered to Qiu Shui: "I want you to send a message back to the Fang family, and you go there in person..."
"Yes." Qiu Shui nodded in agreement, but there was hesitation in his eyes.
"Don't worry, I can still hold on." Fang Ziqin gently patted the back of Qiu Shui's hand, telling her not to worry, "She can't die now, not even for the Fang family."
"Qiu Shui understands." Qiu Shui saluted solemnly. When he ran out, he happened to bump into Wen Ya who was coming. The two apologized to each other and left.
As soon as Wen Ya entered Fengyi Palace, he saw Fang Ziqin sitting upright on the phoenix throne, with a fierce expression that he had never seen before.
"I have met the Queen..." Before Wen Ya could finish his greetings, he was interrupted by Fang Ziqin, "Mr. Wen, there is no need to be polite. I have called you here to save my little sister's life."
"I will do my best." Wen Ya saluted, and Fang Ziqin looked at him steadily, "I want more than just doing my best."
Wen Ya was stunned for a moment, and Fang Ziqin continued talking to herself, "Whatever your master doesn't want, this palace will want. Her fate will be decided by this palace."
Hearing this, Wen Ya's expression changed imperceptibly, "What does the Queen mean by this?"
"Mr. Wen doesn't have to pretend to be confused in front of me." Fang Ziqin stood up, walked up to Wen Ya, and said in a deep voice: "I know that Mr. Wen has always been a person who understands current affairs. Today, I might as well say something. Come on, I know very well what Mr. Wen has done in the past and what kind of person he is. If Mr. Wen can save my little sister’s life, I promise to keep it secret, and the entire Fang family will be extremely grateful to Mr. Wen.”
"If I can't do it, the Queen..." As soon as Wen Yafu started to speak, Fang Ziqin stopped him, "I won't do anything, but if Miss Awan accidentally hears something... "
She didn't say anything further. Wen Ya's hands hidden in his sleeves clenched into fists, "What kind of result does the Queen want?"
Fang Ziqin turned slightly to Wen Ya's ear and whispered, "I want her to be well and appear in front of others as usual."
"I didn't! I didn't seduce Fang Yuhan!" Cong Rong retorted, her voice timid but not hesitant, "As you said, I have some beauty, but this beauty is not only useless, but also made me almost She was forcibly taken as a concubine by Zhuangtou. You said that I seduced Fang Yuhan, but it is better to say that he and Zhuangtou were in an affair. I thought he saved me from being drugged by Zhuangtou, but I didn’t know that all this was planned long ago, and I had nowhere to go. escape."
When Fang Zilan heard this, she already had some thoughts in her heart. She raised her head and looked at Fang Lihui, "I admit that Mr. Fang is right. A woman with beauty can always find a way out if she learns something. However, Miss Cong was born in a village. I'm afraid I can't learn anything except working every day. What's more, even if Miss Cong learns something, she probably won't be able to change today's situation."
Fang Lihui put away his folding fan and turned to look at Fang Zilan. Her eyes were filled with perseverance and loneliness, shining brightly.
Just listen to her serious words: "A person's destiny cannot be changed just by learning something. If you compare destiny to an opponent, you must keep moving forward step by step. The further you go, the more opportunities you have to compete with it. It’s good to learn whatever you want, but it only increases your chances of winning and cannot completely determine the final result.”
She sighed suddenly as she spoke, "The world is not easy, and Miss Cong's situation has already determined her status as a weakling. Under this status, her beauty is no longer an asset, but has become a reason to be fought over. I don’t think an ordinary man is innocent, but he is guilty of carrying a jade. I don’t think Mr. Fang doesn’t know this truth.”
Fang Lihui was slightly stunned, "Master Fang, are you speaking for her?"
"I'm not speaking for her." Fang Zilan put her hand on Cong Rong's shoulder and said firmly: "I just believe her."
Cong Rong turned her head in disbelief and stared at the person in front of her, her eyes full of surprise, "Master Fang, are you willing to believe me?"
Fang Zilan nodded, "However, it is one thing for me to believe you. It is another thing for you to have evidence to prove that what you are carrying in your belly is indeed Fang Yuhan's flesh and blood. Without evidence, I can't help you."
"Master Fang!" Fang Lihui's voice was full of suppressed anger. Fang Zilan stood up and looked directly into his eyes, and asked coldly: "Master Fang doesn't want to face the truth?"
"Even if what she said is true, let alone Mrs. Yuhan, the daughter of the Wang family is about to give birth. How will she react if she knows this. Let's just say that her father, the new Duke of Beiguo, and her uncle, who is an official in Beijing, will let her Is the Fang family better off?" Fang Lihui held the folding fan tightly in his palm, and there was an imperceptible tremor in his knuckled hands, "Master Fang, no matter what the truth is, I cannot give her this fairness, let alone give it to her."
"I will not let Mr. Fang trade the entire Fang family for this fairness." Fang Zilan's expression was very calm, but the look in his eyes was indescribable, "But if the truth is like this, then no one can erase it."
