Don't ask where people go

Chapter 1206 Commitment

Fang Zilan took a deep breath and said in a cold voice: "Does Fang Lihui want to make a clean break with me? Or is the entire Fang family going to make a clean break with me?"

If she was asking about Ah Shi in the first half of the sentence, then she was obviously asking Fang Chongzheng in the second half. However, she didn't get any reply, not even a word.

"Miss Fang San, please take inventory." Ah Shi repeated, still maintaining his original posture, motionless like a puppet on strings.

"Why?" Fang Zilan took a step back and looked around at the people present.

Fang Chongzheng had a very pale expression on his face, and it was impossible to tell what he was thinking. Fang Zitong's red lips were slightly opened, and she clenched her fingers tightly, forcing herself not to make a sound. As for Ah Shi, he never showed any emotion from beginning to end.

Unable to get an answer, Fang Zilan's eyes finally fell on the wooden box, but it only stayed for a moment before falling back on Ah Shi, "Ah Shi, you used me to escape from the world, and used me to enter the Fang family. Now you can give me back a favor." How about going back?"

Ah Shi pursed her lips and said, "But it depends on Miss Fang San's orders."

"You take these back to the north, and it's up to you to decide how to deal with them. But..." Fang Zilan paused and said decisively: "Don't appear in front of me again."

Ah Shi looked at Fang Zilan in disbelief, but saw her reaching out and pushing the wooden box into her arms, "Since you chose the Fang family, I don't have to choose you anymore.

"Fang Zilan..." Hongtai wanted to say something, but Fang Zilan stopped him as soon as he started speaking, "I understand what the Fang family means."

As she spoke, she saluted Fang Chongzheng, "The married daughter throws water, and from now on, the Fang family and I will go our separate ways..."

"Lan'er..." Fang Zitong finally couldn't help but speak, but Fang Zilan ignored her and finished the last half of her sentence, "No more relations."

After she said that, she turned around and left. Fang Chongzheng's voice came from behind her, "If you want to fight for justice, you can't protect Fang Lihui. Do you understand?"

Fang Zilan stopped, feeling mixed in her heart. How could she not understand?

The so-called fight for justice means that regardless of one's status, background, whether he is one of the Nine Great Lords, or a poor family, as long as he is guilty, he should be tried and punished without any shelter.

But since the death of King Rongan, everyone has become unforgivable under a pile of bad debts. However, in order to consolidate the mountains and rivers forever, we cannot do it overnight, we can only plan it slowly, and we must prioritize it.

In this case, why not keep Lihui below for the time being?

This is her selfishness, hidden under her family background, and only Fang Chongzheng can see it clearly. Once it is spoken out, it cannot be concealed.

Just because she knew that Fang Lihui was just the beginning, not the end. He knows a lot, and there are countless people involved. This is not something he can do alone.

Even if she pretended to be deaf and mute, she could guess what kind of role the Fang family played behind the scenes. What's more, all the account books found by Qianjinfang were in her hands, so she couldn't deceive herself or others even if she wanted to.

From acquiescence to connivance to secret help, the Fang family cannot be called innocent at all.

"How much do you really know?" Fang Zilan turned around and looked at Fang Chongzheng steadily, "Or are you actually the real manipulator?"

"I have been a businessman and an official. I have stirred up troubles in the past and present times." Fang Chongzheng seemed to be explaining, but also like a monologue, "I have led the Fang family to this day, and I feel no guilt."

Fang Zilan took the wine bottle on the table and drank a glass of wine. It seemed that only in this way could she say what she wanted to say next.

Li Shengxuan had no time to stop him, and watched as her cheeks turned red, and her voice became a little drunker, "Since you want to do it, then be the most unparalleled emperor in ancient and modern times, protect all people and create a peaceful and prosperous age. In this way, I ..." She didn't say any more, but her eyes turned red. I thought to myself, I have come to this world in vain, even if I am shattered into pieces and turned into dust, I will have no regrets.

Li Shengxuan stared blankly at the person in front of him. The countless possibilities he had thought about were instantly wiped out, but the emotions in his chest were so high that they were about to overflow. At this moment, he finally confirmed his mind.

If we were talking about a sudden glimpse of her when he was young, she was like a light, and became his warm comfort when he was in fear. So now, she is the only one who can stand side by side with him in the prosperous country.

She was also the one who really moved him.

"I promise you." He changed his name, and his solemn words were the promise he made as the emperor of Beijing.

Hearing this, Fang Zilan's tightly clenched hands suddenly loosened. The sound of a clang and the falling of the wine bottle made her wake up a little, so she breathed a long sigh of relief and gently raised the corners of her lips.

However, before she could react further, Li Shengxuan said: "But, I will not use you as a step to pave the way for the peaceful and prosperous age you talk about."

Fang Zilan was stunned for a moment and then said: "If we want to create a peaceful and prosperous age, not only the emperor must wear clothes and eat at night, but also the ministers must work hard. If one day, I am the leader, I am willing to..."

"I don't want to." Li Shengxuan interrupted her, and there was something undeniable in his tone, "Everyone in the world can be a rank, but you can't."

"What do you mean?" Fang Zilan was confused and couldn't help but frowned and said shamelessly: "I don't care, anyway, if I want to make steps, I can make steps. Don't try to stop me."

She was drunk and extremely stubborn.

Seeing this, Li Shengxuan couldn't laugh or cry and said: "Okay, you can do whatever you want. I won't stop you, but you can always help me, right?"

Fang Zilan nodded obediently, "Okay. But I don't need your help now. I won't be polite when I need you in the future."

"Seriously?" Li Shengxuan looked serious. Fang Zilan nodded vigorously and said: "Seriously, if I lie to you, I will be a puppy!"

After saying this, she stretched out her hand, approached Li Shengxuan, and said solemnly: "Pull the hook!"

Although Li Shengxuan was puzzled, he still put his hand up. As soon as he put his hand over, she hooked her little finger.

Their little fingers were intertwined and their thumbs pressed together into a seal.

Strange feelings spread in Li Shengxuan's heart, and he couldn't help but use gentle force to bring Fang Zilan's hand into his own, clasping his fingers tightly.

Fang Zilan squinted her eyes slightly and looked down, but she felt dazzled. All she saw were double images, as if there were countless hands.

She suddenly became irritated, and subconsciously took the hands of the two of them together, pulling them in front of her to get a closer look. Who would have thought that she was so confused that she had no control and actually put her hands on her face.

This doesn't seem to be your own hand? She felt her mind was filled with mush, and she took a big bite out of her thoughts.
