Chapter 1031 Appropriate Exposure
After passing Wangxian Pass, the rest of the road will be smooth.

It was obvious that Elder Feng and Elder Ling were in a hurry to go back, so they arranged for people to pick them up halfway. A large group of private soldiers from aristocratic families took away the young masters and young ladies, and the two masters left quickly. In this way, Fu Qingzhou and others finally caught the express train to the Yuan family.

During this process, the fake soul appeared twice again, but perhaps because there were more and more people around Fu Qingzhou, it did not come closer after being forced back twice.

However, at this stage, Fu Qingzhou should also start the next stage of the task.

This is what Master Shirakawa said, "appropriate exposure."

He needed to let the enemy realize that "Fu Qingzhou appeared". Only in this way would the Lan family relax their vigilance and give Master Baihe, Ning Wushu and others an opportunity to take advantage of them.

This entry point...

"Mr. Lan."

Fu Qingzhou rode his horse to the carriage and knocked on the window: "Can we chat?"

After entering Fuhe Province, they naturally no longer needed to travel on their own.

The Yuan family's private soldiers brought carriages and horses, and the young men and women all had their own carriages, servants, and maids. Although a young master of the Lan family like Lan Jingzhu did not have the same treatment as the Yuan family members, he was still a young master of a noble family, and since guests were guests, they still arranged a carriage for him.

On the contrary, people like Fu Qingzhou, Tang Jiao and others could only ride horses even if they were incorporated into the Yuan family's private army.

The curtain of the carriage was quickly opened, revealing Lan Jingzhu's face.

"Hey, Brother Tian?"

He smiled and said, "What's the matter?"

Ever since he left the dangerous environment, the politeness and flattery on his face were no longer seen. Although he still had an approachable smile, when you say someone is "approachable", it often means that he is looking at you with a condescending eye.

He said he didn't "get in the car", but asked "what's the matter" first, which was intentional to create a sense of distance.

Fu Qingzhou could of course see what this guy was thinking, so he smiled and said, "Nothing, I got some news this morning that there should be a way to send you back to Lanting Lake as soon as possible, so I planned to come and let you know."

Hearing these words, Lan Jingzhu's eyes lit up instantly!

No matter how good the Yuan family is, they are still living under someone else's roof!
Just like the group of people who were rescued from the dark prison... now they have servants and maids serving them, and they have to say thank you just for having a carriage to ride in.

"It's so true!"

Lan Jingzhu immediately showed his familiar flattering smile: "Brother Tian, ​​get in the car, get in the car quickly, let's talk in detail!"

Fu Qingzhou smiled, dismounted and got into the carriage.

As soon as he entered the carriage, before Lan Jingzhu could speak, he suddenly stopped smiling and said calmly, "Master Lan, you are in trouble."

"what?"

Lan Jingzhu's smile had not yet faded, but now it was frozen on his face: "Brother Tian, ​​what do you mean?"

Fu Qingzhou looked at him and said slowly: "The person from the Lan family who was left by us in Wangxian Pass is dead."

Lan Jingzhu's pupils shrank.

"Don't ask me where I got the news."

Fu Qingzhou reached out his hand to stop the other party from asking questions, and continued: "The current situation is that after we left, the Wangxian Pass Volunteer Army found them. They intended to resist and were killed. At the same time, this news was also passed back to the Lan family."

Lan Jingzhu's face turned ugly: "But what does this have to do with me? It's not me who killed them. I can't protect myself either!"

“That’s the problem.”

Fu Qingzhou said leisurely: "Now, the Lan family suspects that you are colluding with Mingjian Pavilion and are already their people."

"How can it be?!"

Lan Jingzhu cried out, and then realized something. His eyes turned fierce as he looked at Fu Qingzhou: "No! How could you know such a thing? Who are you?"

"What is my identity..."

Fu Qingzhou smiled slightly: "Mr. Lan, you really can't guess?" Lan Jingzhu took a breath and leaned back suddenly, pressing tightly against the wall of the carriage.

"It seems that our conversation can move to the next stage."

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "Think about it. You were secretly escorted by Mingjian Pavilion. How did we know about it? You must have suspected it before, right? If I was really as powerful and smart as I have been acting recently, how could I have been caught so easily?"

"you you……"

Lan Jingzhu's voice trembled: "You are from Mingjian Pavilion..."

"Mr. Lan is a man who knows the current situation. I have confirmed this a long time ago."

Fu Qingzhou's smile became gentler: "So now, do you want to shout loudly and reveal my identity, or continue chatting?"

"Chat...chat..."

Lan Jingzhu swallowed his saliva and suppressed his fear: "Continue, continue chatting..."

"very good."

Fu Qingzhou blinked and said, "Back to the topic just now, the Lan family suspected that you were a traitor. Of course, I was the one who gave the information to them."

Lan Jingzhu's face fell and he wanted to cry but had no tears.

But Fu Qingzhou hadn't finished his words yet: "For you, the bad news is that the entire Lan family has probably started to arrest you; the good news is that the news has not yet spread here, and the people of the Yuan family don't know."

"You, you were willing to take me away from Wangxian Pass at that time, just because you wanted to use me..." Lan Jingzhu said in a hoarse voice.

"That's understandable."

Fu Qingzhou looked into his eyes and smiled: "So, what are you going to do?"

"You should, you should ask, what do you want me to do?" Lan Jingzhu said with a sad face.

Fu Qingzhou smiled even more happily.

He didn't answer immediately, but took out a small bottle from his body.

"This, this, this, what is this?" Lan Jingzhu's teeth were chattering.

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "A bottle of chronic poison... Oh, don't be nervous, I haven't told you to drink it yet."

"Brother, can you please give me a quick death?"

Lan Jingzhu was about to collapse, and he inserted ten fingers into his hair: "What on earth are you going to do?"

"I'm going to give you two choices."

Fu Qingzhou shook the medicine bottle in his hand: "Choice one, drink this bottle of medicine, and you will be under my control. You will do whatever I tell you to do. If you play any tricks, you will turn into a pool of pus and blood the next day...Wandushan carefully prepared the poison, and it has never failed."

"Choice 2..."

He smiled and said, "Do my work for me during this period. I can guarantee that the news of 'you are a traitor' will not reach the Yuan family. Afterwards, I will give you a plaque... a Mingjian Zhishi plaque."

"Gah?!"

Lan Jingzhu's face was about to fall, but when he heard this, he almost didn't react, and he squeezed out a duck-like interjection from his throat: "What do you mean?"

"In recent years, Mingjian Pavilion has also been short of people."

Fu Qingzhou said quietly, "Although you are from an aristocratic family, you haven't made any mistakes before, right? You were just a playboy, eating and drinking, and doing small business - now that you have come to your senses, we can give you a chance."

Lan Jingzhu's eyes started rolling wildly!
After a while, he asked tentatively: "Then...what do I need to do?"

At this time, there was not much fear left in his tone.

Fu Qingzhou grinned: "Tonight, someone in our team will die, and I want you to be a witness."
