Don't ask where people go

Chapter 1340 Acceptance

Not far from the tomb of Prince Rong'an, Zhen Mi'er was waiting on the roadside, dressed in a low-key manner like an ordinary passerby and was not eye-catching.

When Fang Zilan saw Zhen Mier, she clenched her hands in her sleeves into fists, "Did you guys plan this in advance?"

"You were the one who said that you had handed over power and resigned a long time ago." Hong Tai waved his hands innocently and said, "Now that you are no longer the owner of Qianjinfang, who can control what Zhen wants to do?"

Fang Zilan was about to explode when she saw Zhen Mier quickly approaching and holding her arm, "Lan'er, there are people watching here all the time, so we shouldn't stay here for long."

"I know." Fang Zilan restrained her expression and couldn't help asking, "What are you doing here?"

"Lan'er, if you want me to stay out of it, you should ask me if I am willing to do so." Zhen Mi'er smiled faintly and said faintly: "What's more, Qianjinfang has already been in the vortex, and there is no escape."

Fang Zilan lowered her eyes and whispered, "Forget it, you can't stop me, and I can't persuade you either."

Hong Tai shook his head and said, "It's getting late, you two."

"Why, are you planning to go there during the day?" Fang Zilan glanced at Hong Tai and saw him nod. "We have a bad relationship, so what difference does it make whether we go there during the day or at night?"

Hearing this, Fang Zilan said thoughtfully, "You mean, the body of King Rong'an is in the mountains?"

Hong Tai did not answer, but said calmly: "Let's go."

Fang Zilan and Zhen Mier followed, and the three of them rode their horses straight towards Feiling Mountain.

"Boss, if you return to Feiling Mountain now, you will be trapped." Fang Zilan frowned, and Hongtai chuckled, "You don't think that the court is still stationed on Feiling Mountain, do you?"

"Otherwise..." Fang Zilan stopped as soon as she opened her mouth, then bit her lip and said firmly: "Impossible!"

"Nothing is impossible." Hong Tai looked ahead with a stern expression. "The arrest warrant has been issued. Given the size of Feiling Mountain, the court cannot order the soldiers of the Jiangnan Camp or the Southeast Camp to sit and wait. Transferring them to the local area is the best option."

"However, many local officials are in collusion with bandits. Once Feiling Mountain falls into their hands..." Zhen Mier added, "it will once again become a lair for bandits."

Fang Zilan remained silent. Hongtai looked over and said nonchalantly, "I haven't been back to the mountain since I followed you. Don't doubt me."

"Don't give me that." Fang Zilan snorted coldly, "Even mountain bandits have their own rivals. If no one covets Feiling Mountain, it would be you, the boss, who has failed."

Hongtai's smile grew wider, "What the Crown Prince's wife said really struck a chord with me."

He deliberately dragged his words. Fang Zilan was too lazy to pay attention to him and changed the subject: "You just said that the relationship was torn apart. Who did you mean? The mountain bandits or the governor?"

"Someone I've offended." Hong Tai said lightly, as if he didn't want to talk about it in depth.

Fang Zilan's face was as gloomy as water. "Boss, I need to know who we are facing."

"If it was a bandit, what would you do?" Red Taylor held the reins, slowed down his pace, and asked with interest, "If it was a governor, what would you do?"

"If it's the former, there's no room for negotiation. We can only fight to the death." Fang Zilan rode to Hongtai's side and said word by word, "If it's the latter, we can still negotiate." "They are all bastards who take human life lightly." Hongtai's face was cold, "The wife of the prince actually thinks that there is room for negotiation with the governor?"

"Mr. Governor, we are more or less concerned about our reputation and are rarely willing to risk everything to fight to the death." Fang Zilan seemed to be talking about something very ordinary. "Why can't we talk?"

Hongtai's expression froze, "Are you serious?"

"Boss, I know that there are limits to what I can do, and there are not many people I can rely on, so I have to cherish myself to plan for the long term." Fang Zilan looked calm, "Now, unless it is absolutely necessary, I will not fight with real swords and guns."

Hong Tai was speechless, "Fang Zilan, is this considered a compromise?"

"I prefer to call it a technique." Fang Zilan curled her lips, "The technique is a means. It is hidden in the heart, and it can be used to secretly control everyone."

"Any means necessary to achieve the goal?" Hong Tai smiled, but there was an unspeakable emotion in his eyes. "Do you know that this is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger?"

"It's hard to say who the tiger is." Fang Zilan stopped smiling, and a fierce look appeared on her face. "Fei Ling Mountain is ahead. The boss still won't tell me?"

"Suzhou Prefecture, Qian Wenxiang." Hong Tai said briefly. Fang Zilan pondered for a moment, "It seems there is something to talk about."

"Cousin, I didn't mean to provoke you with the past, but the opportunity for revenge is right before my eyes. If I miss it, I will never have it again." Princess Erya's eyes seemed to have a fire burning, and she was so paranoid that she was almost crazy. "What does my life mean to me?"

"Er Ya..." The cousin's eyes turned red, "Have you thought about the consequences? After this move, we will completely break with Da Jing, and Miluo is not a good person. Sandwiched between the two countries, can Di Rong survive?"

"My hometown no longer exists." Princess Erya's expression gradually became resentful. "It's not a pity that the Dirong tribe is destroyed now. As long as the Wu family prospers, nothing else matters."

"Since you have made up your mind..." the cousin said slowly, "It's okay for me to do it."

"No!" Princess Erya's face flashed with panic, and her cousin couldn't help but frowned and asked, "Why? You have already put a curse on Fang Zilan, whose life will you use..."

"If I say no, then no!" Princess Erya interrupted her sharply, "That Gu is fed with my blood essence. No one can control it except me, not even you, my cousin."

My cousin suddenly reacted, "Er Ya, what on earth did you do?"

"Cousin, no matter what I did, it was all for the Wu family." Princess Erya said, and then she cruelly pushed her cousin out and locked the door from the inside.

"Erya, don't do anything stupid!" my cousin shouted, but for fear of attracting too many people, she restrained herself and lowered her voice, but she didn't get any response.

Princess Erya sat at the table and gently opened the wooden box in her hand, revealing a poisonous insect inside.

She didn't tell anyone that she had set up this plan when Fang Zilan first found her a few years ago. She directed Fang Zilan to the Miluo Palace to find the high priest so that this plan could be more perfect.

At this point, not only is the plan she set up perfect, but there are also people helping her. How can she let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?

Thinking of this, Princess Erya took out a knife and cut open her wrist veins, feeding the Gu with blood while muttering something. Speaking of which, this was her first time to perform this kind of witchcraft, and she hoped she would not be disappointed.
