"Your Majesty Duke Guo Guo speaks lightly, don't you know that people's words can be feared?" Fang Zitong looked coldly, "My father was an official of the previous dynasty. Even though he was cautious in everything, he could not say that he had nothing to do with the previous dynasty. Everyone is talking about it. With so much money, it is unknown that the Fang family will be charged with unwarranted crimes."
"If the Fang family is really innocent, why should we be afraid of an investigation?" Pei Juqing said quietly: "In the face of facts, people's words are not enough to fear."
"What a person says is not enough to be afraid of." Fang Zitong said in a cold voice with a stern look on his face: "Since Mr. Guo Guo has already said this, we might as well open the sky and speak openly. What Duke Guo Jun said today is so aimed at the Fang family. In addition to testing me, it is also to add fuel to the flames when it comes to verification in the future, am I right?"
"That's right." Pei Juqing raised the corners of her lips, raised her hands and said, "Miss Fang, I really did not misjudge the person. Only you can handle my business."
"Why?" Fang Zitong looked a little ferocious, "There are many high-ranking families in the capital. Why is Mr. Pei targeting my Fang family alone?"
"Targeted?" Pei Juqing repeated the word, and said meaningfully: "Miss Fang Er is right, it is targeted. Your former dynasty, just because the seller wanted glory, suddenly turned into the prime minister of the dynasty. The origin He is not upright and his virtue is not worthy of his place, so he will attack in groups. Second Miss Fang, I am far from the only person in the capital who is waiting to see your father's reputation be ruined and the Fang family be ruined."
Fang Zitong was shocked by his words and took a step back, but still kept her face and said: "Master Junguo said he was talking about business, but in fact he was coercing and luring him. He has no sincerity at all. How can I believe it?"
"This information is my sincerity." Pei Juqing said solemnly: "As long as Miss Fang marries me as my wife, I guarantee that no one in the capital will reveal a word."
Fang Zitong sneered and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Jun, dares to ask me for a marriage certificate. You want to know more information than this, right?"
"It's true." Pei Juqing nodded slightly and said calmly, "But I'm afraid Miss Fang doesn't want to hear the other news."
"Is it because I don't want to hear it, or does Mr. Guo Guo have no other news?" Fang Zitong raised his eyebrows, and Pei Jueqing smiled, "Miss Fang, there is no need to provoke me. Just listen to what I say. Quan is expressing my gratitude. Marry your sincerity.”
Fang Zitong lowered his eyes and bit his lip, only to hear Pei Juqing say: "I heard that when His Majesty was still King Xiang, Princess Xiang was originally proposed to marry someone else, but she ended up marrying your sister. I wonder if Miss Fang knows the reason. ?”
Fang Zitong remained silent, and Pei Juqing continued talking on her own, "It is said that something unexpected happened and the originally scheduled Princess Xiang suddenly lost her mother, so your sister had no choice but to marry her instead."
He paused for a moment as he spoke, "By the way, you should be the only one who can marry your sister in your place, right? And the person your sister can marry in your place is your sister Fang Zilan. It's really interesting, why does everything have to do with your sister?" Related? What makes me even more curious is, why did the dignified Prince Xiang marry a concubine like your sister? And why did your biological mother die at such a coincidence..."
"That's enough." Fang Zitong quickly stopped what he was saying, and his expression became much calmer.
Pei Juqing knows too much, and coupled with his power and position, even if it cannot destroy the Fang family, it is enough to prevent the Fang family from ever getting ahead.
A strong man's wrist is cut off, but he still has the strength to fight. What's more, it's just a marriage contract, which is far from the end of the road.
However, she had never hated Fang Zilan so much. Because of her, her sister's marriage and her own were ruined.
She closed her eyes tightly, and when she opened them again, there was only a look of solemnity in her eyes.
She sat back again, looked at the person in front of her, and said slowly: "I can marry you, but I want you to agree to two requirements."
Pei Juqing met her gaze and said, "Second Miss Fang, it doesn't matter if you say so."
Fang Zitong said seriously: "Firstly, all the news about the Fang family that Mr. Guo Guo knows will not be revealed from anyone from now on. Secondly, in the future, Mr. Guo Guo, the Empress Dowager, and even the entire The Pei family must stand by the Fang family. My father will not be harmed in court, my sister will not be harmed in the harem, and the Fang family will not be touched outside. No hidden tricks are allowed."
Pei Juqing looked at the people in front of her with interest and couldn't help but smile, "Miss Fang, the first request is my sincerity, I will definitely agree to you. As for the second request, even if I agree to you now , would you believe it?”
"No." Fang Zitong answered neatly, "That's why I will marry you."
Pei Juanqing was stunned for a moment, only to hear her voice, which was like pearls and jade, clear and moving, but with a chill to the bone, "After I marry into the Pei family, I will stay by your side day and night. If you have any intention of going back on your word, I will kill you." you."
She spoke lightly, and Pei Jueqing's smile froze on her face, but it only lasted for a moment, and then the smile on his face became even brighter, "Second Miss Fang calls herself a weak girl, how can she kill me?"
"Your Excellency, Lord Guo Guo, you can give it a try." Fang Zitong's red lips curved slightly, and a smile escaped. She was born to be gorgeous, but now under the dim candlelight, she seemed to be born on the bank of the underworld, adding to the destructive charm.
For some reason, Pei Juqing's heart suddenly twitched, disrupting its original heartbeat rhythm. He calmly picked up the teacup, took a sip of tea, and calmed down.
Zhuge Yu couldn't help but whispered: "It's just that before I went to the capital, she said something similar to me. If I go to the capital, we will never see each other again in this life."
"Ayu has gone to the capital after all." Fang Zilan answered, with unspeakable regret in her tone.
"Yes." A wry smile appeared on Zhuge Yu's face, "I thought she was just speaking out of anger. After I become successful, I can still go back to see her."
"She didn't speak out of anger, but because she couldn't bear it." Fang Zilan's voice was a little hoarse, with a hint of depth, and said meaningfully: "She selfishly wants you to stay, but she doesn't want to wipe out your ambition. It seems that Disappointed but still left a glimmer of hope. She put the choice in your hands, but she was disappointed in the end."
Zhuge Yu looked at Fang Zilan blankly and murmured in a low voice: "Sister Lan, do you think I have failed her?"
"Yes, and no." Fang Zilan's tone was solemn and noble, "What Ah Yu failed to live up to was the girl's love for a certain moment in the past, and what he failed to live up to was his love and care for her. I remember when we were under the Gilded City, Ah Yu Yu told me that there are always things more important than life in this world. There are many people who can't help themselves for what they want in their hearts, so it's already amazing that A Yu can live up to himself."
