Don't ask where people go

Chapter 1645 Raising
Fang Zilan felt mixed emotions. The relationship between her and the Fang family was more than just one of mutual support.
Secrets are intertwined, lips are broken and teeth are cold, this is the real relationship between her and the Fang family. However, it is not enough for outsiders.

So Fang Zilan was silent for a moment and then said: "Your Majesty, if one day Prince Zhongzheng's Palace and the Fang family change places, how I treat the Fang family today will be how I treat Prince Zhongzheng's Palace tomorrow."

She paused and gradually tightened her hand on Murong Qing, "As long as the prince knows about this matter, it's fine. No matter what the prince thinks, I don't care."

"I understand." Murong Qing nodded, "Now that my sister has told me the truth, I can feel at ease. This muddy water in the southeast can be disturbed by my sister. No matter what the outcome, Prince Zhongzheng is willing to work with the Fang family. "

Fang Zilan looked at Murong Qing steadily, "Can I believe you?"

Murong Qing did not answer, but held Fang Zilan's hand with his backhand, "Husband and wife are one, not to mention that my sister is the only lady who can stand side by side with me in these years."

Fang Zilan chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, you should know that what I want to hear is not some showy talk."

"The Silver Armored Army has not withdrawn from the capital yet." Murong Qing's hand touched Fang Zilan's veins and he said casually: "At worst, it will overthrow the world. Whatever matters in the capital and Miluo, it is up to you and me."

The indifferent tone revealed unspeakable ambition, "Sister, don't tell me that you have never thought of holding the world in your own hands."

After hearing this, Fang Zilan subconsciously wanted to shake off Murong Qing's hand. However, she only moved her wrist, which gave him an opportunity to take advantage of her. Their hands were intertwined, and their fingers were tightly intertwined.

"Fang Zilan, do you want to go back on your word?" Murong Qing did not call her sister, but spoke to Fang Zilan by her full name, which made her stunned.

But in just a moment, Fang Zilan's expression turned cold, "It's good that the prince has been prepared. If you need anything, I will not be polite."

Murong Qing knew in his heart that no matter how many sincere words he and Fang Zilan said to each other, trust would be difficult to build.

To him, Fang Zilan was the culprit who forced his mentor to death; to Fang Zilan, he was a ruthless person who would do anything to achieve his goal. Especially that time in Miluo Palace, between life and death, he used Mo Han, and she would never forgive him.

But even so, Murong Qing still heard his own voice and said, "Okay."

With just one word, he entrusted the entire Zhongzheng Palace to Fang Zilan. He was willing to support Fang Zilan and even the entire Fang family in exchange for a slim future as the master of the world.

Fang Zilan looked at Murong Qing. She would occasionally wonder how sincere and fake his words were. But she didn't believe a single word of what he said today.

At first, those who wanted to support her included the Fang family if she was close to them and Li Shengxuan if she was far away, but Fang Zilan, the Duke of Xianyue, ended up dead and ruined. Now that she is married to Murong Qing, she doesn't dare to expect him to support her, she just hopes that they won't both perish together.

The female official nodded and said, "A few days ago, the gardener in the palace saw insect pests while tending to the flowers and plants, so he told us to sprinkle more salt after the winter snow, which can not only melt the snow, but also repel insects. The Empress Dowager loves the flowers and plants in the garden, so we must take better care of them."

"Really?" Fang Zitong's face showed clear disapproval, "There is nothing wrong with spreading salt to repel insects, but not all insect pests can be expelled by spreading salt, and the right medicine must be prescribed."

Hearing this, the female official's face changed and she said embarrassedly: "Miss Fang is talking about..." "Zitong." Fang Chongzheng's voice came from beside them. It was neither light nor heavy, but it carried a shocking power.

Upon hearing this, Fang Zitong walked to Fang Chongzheng's side, bowed his head and said nothing.

Fang Chongzheng was standing under a plum tree, his jade hair crown was tied up meticulously, his beard was neatly grown, his official uniform and long cloak were neatly straight, and he stood upright and majestic.

He nodded to the female official and said, "How the gardener in the palace behaves has its own reasons. I am ignorant and talk nonsense. I hope you will not be as knowledgeable as her."

The female officer respectfully lowered her hands and said, "Master Fang, you are serious."

But then I heard Fang Chongzheng say: "But even if you are driving away insects, you have to be cautious. Going too far is not enough. It is against nature to harm the roots of plants and trees for temporary benefits. I am afraid that after the beginning of spring, the garden will not be able to see the colorful flowers and fragrant flowers." "

Every word he spoke was gentle and natural, but he clearly showed the severity of being calm and authoritative.

The pressure from the high-ranking person made the female officer involuntarily lose her composure and said with a stern expression: "Master Fang taught you that we must remember Master Fang's teachings."

It was just a small episode in the imperial garden, but when it reached the ears of the Empress Dowager, she was shocked.

The Empress Dowager still asked the secret guard calmly: "Too much is not enough, it hurts the fundamentals and goes against nature. Is this really what Fang Chongzheng said?"

The secret guard nodded hurriedly, "Yes."

The Empress Dowager waved her hand to signal that he could go down. The nanny on the side came to her side and whispered in a low voice: "Too far is not enough. If the person from Qiankun Palace is determined to get to the bottom of it this time, I'm afraid our Pei family..."

Before Mammy could finish her words, the Empress Dowager knew exactly what she meant and said softly: "Fang Chongzheng is indeed very powerful. Everyone in the court, not even the Aijia and the Emperor, can think as clearly as he does." . If this case continues to be investigated, once it harms the foundation of the imperial court and violates the system of ministers, the ministers of the family will rise up and rebel, and the capital will be in danger."

Hearing this, Nanny's eyes were filled with worry, "Madam, what should we do now..."

The Empress Dowager composed herself, regained her composure, and snorted coldly: "That's all, go and inform Wang Quanrui and ask his brother Wang Quanzhi to find a scapegoat to take the blame and close the case."

She thought for a moment and said, "It's the guy named Lu. I think he is the most suitable person to be the culprit."

The nanny confirmed, "Are you talking about Yanzhou Inspector Lu Zhizhang?"

"That's right." The Empress Dowager leaned lazily on the main throne and said coldly, "This case was originally made by him to avenge his nephew. If he did it well, I wouldn't mind helping him and adding fuel to the fire to bring Fang Zilan down. But now he messed up. Not only did he fail to take Fang Zilan's life, but he also wanted to drag other aristocratic families into the water. Of course, he can't be allowed to stay. I think his Lu family is also a big family in the North. If he comes out to take the blame, it will be enough to stop the gossips."

"What about the others in the North?" Nanny couldn't help asking, but she saw that the Empress Dowager's expression became colder. "Those people in the North are just pawns in the game between me, the Emperor, and Fang Zilan. I don't want to drive Fang Zilan crazy for those people. Considering that they have guarded the border for many years, keep them."
