Don't ask where people go

Chapter 179 Inexplicable
Fang Chongzheng asked instead, "I dare to ask Mr. Fang. In your heart, but the mountains and rivers in your heart are always bigger than the sky?"

Fang Zilan was stunned for a moment, and then said quietly: "Yes." Her voice was a little hoarse, with an indescribable heaviness, but she was extremely firm.

"Then do you know that this responsibility should belong to the emperor in the Qiankun Palace?" Fang Chongzheng's tone was a little solemn, "You have eternal responsibilities in your heart, but the family of Gongqing said that the power and interests are greater than the sky. Yours Perseverance cannot reach the threshold of their high-ranking families, exhaust the inch of land they have granted to them, and cannot support the beams and pillars of their grand family."

Fang Zilan listened quietly, but only felt an unknown fire burning in her chest.

She couldn't help but retort: ​​"Master Fang lives in a high place in the temple, and the way of being an official is beyond my comparison. But even so, I dare not agree with Mr. Fang's words."

She coughed lightly, cleared her throat, and continued: "In his position, he seeks his own government. The affairs of the world are not the affairs of the emperor alone. Otherwise, why do you want a hundred officials? What's the use of a family? Don’t take the world as your own responsibility, but take the world as your own body. If you stumble to this point, you will do everything you can.”

Fang Chongzheng was speechless, but a familiar figure flashed in his heart.

When they were young, who didn't worry about the world with enthusiasm, devoted themselves to life and forgot to die?The world can change, and who will stick to it?

Sure enough, they are family.

"Master Fang is young, so he must feel that what he has done is righteous and understandable." Fang Chongzheng spoke slowly, "But looking back after many years, it was just a moment of heroism. You did not hesitate to die for the sake of everyone in the northern border, but you Who can stand up to protect them after death? People live in the world for decades, and the trickle of water will last forever, and it is not a decision at a young age."

Fang Zilan chuckled suddenly, her voice was full of regret, "Master Fang is used to being wise and safe, so why bother with me, a young and frivolous junior who doesn't know the heights of the sky and the earth? Although life is not about seizing the day and night, there are always some things that need someone to do. I am a person who never turns back when I die, I am afraid that I am going to spoil Master Fang's kindness."

"Master Fang, do you think that there is anything in this world that you must do?" Fang Chongzheng's tone became colder, and Fang Zilan's voice weakened, "There is nothing that must be done by anyone. It's just..."

She stopped talking suddenly, and said after a long while: "There are many things in this world that no one wants to do. I don't want these things to be looked at coldly, and it will be silent." After she finished speaking, she felt funny.

Fang Chongzheng was right, she was indeed a brave hero.

But who can be the savior?She's not that arrogant yet.

Fang Chongzheng's hands in his sleeves were clenched into fists, and the past flashed back and forth like a revolving lantern.

He was powerless then, and he is helpless now.

He once felt lonely because of the fact that the Fang clan could only protect himself wisely, and he also envied his determination to sacrifice his life for the eternal, and he was even more dissatisfied that the Fang clan was not strong enough to protect everyone in his family, country, and world.

Later, as he got older, the hills and valleys in his chest were gradually honed into a smooth road. The loneliness, envy and unwillingness he thought were young had disappeared with time.

However, until this moment, he suddenly realized that so many years had passed, no matter how calm he was, he still hid a trace of regret that he couldn't suppress.

In the end, his expression was as indifferent as usual, and he said in a cold voice: "Since ancient times, there has never been a good death for a warrior. I hope Mr. Fang will take care of himself."

A sentence as light as a feather, but an unspeakable warning, made Fang Zilan uncontrollably excited.

Is there no good end?How could she not know.But even if there is no way ahead, despite all the difficulties and dangers, she still has to overcome obstacles to carve a way for herself.

If she were to retreat, she would not be reconciled anyway.

After Fang Chongzheng left, Fang Zilan relaxed her mind and lay down on the bed, drowsy, and it was evening before she knew it.

Someone knocked on the door of the wing room again, presumably A Wan who brought her medicine had arrived.

"Come in." Fang Zilan's voice was still a little hoarse, and the people outside the door pushed the door in without hesitation when they heard her voice.

The visitor walked around the screen and walked in front of her, which made her startled involuntarily. It was actually Li Shengxuan.

She hadn't seen Li Shengxuan since she fell into a coma in front of Yuzhang Palace that day.

Later, when she woke up, she heard from Fang Ziqin that Li Shengxuan had attached great importance to the Northern Territory case. He not only sent Wei Subaru to preside over the trial, but also Zhuge Ming to sit in on the hearing.

If she said that there was no wave in her heart, it would be a lie, but it was more doubts.

Although she didn't know exactly who Li Shengxuan was, she could get a glimpse of it from his behavior. The ruthless and ruthless Lord of the World would never be influenced by others to develop a heart to protect everyone in the northern border.

What's more, the people involved in this case, from Zhong Yao to Qi Yuming, to the lieutenant general in the army, are all high-ranking people with shallow foundation and no background. Even if it is Ming Zheng's punishment, it is just a stone thrown into the sea, which will not make any waves.

She knew that Li Shengxuan could not openly contend against the Empress Dowager and the family of the princes for the sake of these people, so she took the risk and did not hesitate to risk her life and reputation to save them.

But she never expected that Li Shengxuan would carry the case to the end, and protect her together with her.

Li Shengxuan took a seat beside the bed, seeing Fang Zilan staring at him without saying a word, he couldn't help chuckling and said, "Why are you staring at me like this?"

As soon as he said this, Fang Zilan was startled to feel impolite. Just as he wanted to get up and say hello, he pressed his shoulder and leaned back, "You are injured, so there is no need to be polite."

Fang Zilan looked at the person close at hand, and said with a complicated expression: "Thank you, Your Majesty. I have caused a lot of trouble for Your Majesty recently..."

Li Shengxuan interrupted her and said: "Since you know that you have caused me a lot of trouble, you should take care of yourself as soon as possible."

"Okay." Fang Zilan murmured, her expression still full of hesitation.

Seeing this, Li Shengxuan took the initiative to ask: "You want to ask me, why did you save everyone in the northern border?"

Fang Zilan nodded unabashedly, "Yes."

Li Shengxuan smiled slightly: "You answer me a question first, and I will tell you why."

Seeing that Fang Zilan didn't respond, Li Shengxuan assumed that she agreed by default.

He asked indifferently: "I know all about the situation in Yuzhang Palace that day. You could have retreated completely, why did you insist on kneeling in the snow to belittle yourself and beg the Empress Dowager to calm down?"

There was a hint of anger in his tone, although he restrained it well, Fang Zilan could still hear it.

She wondered why he was angry, and said involuntarily: "I beg the empress dowager to calm down, is that how your majesty sees me?"

　People live in the world for decades, and the trickle of water will last forever.

　　After changing it N times, Fang Chongzheng's plan is standing, and I finally have the most satisfying chapter so far. It's not easy...
