Chapter 477
Fang Zilan leaned over quietly, only to hear a female voice anxiously saying: "Miss, what's wrong with you?"

After that, there was the sound of rubbing clothes in a hurry, and the sound of porcelain colliding.After a moment of silence, there were only the sound of heavy breathing and gulping of water.

"I can't sleep, you go out first." Fang Zitong's voice was very low, but the moment Fang Zilan heard it, she felt relieved and walked to the gate of the courtyard again, but did not leave.

The servant girl pushed the door out and saw Fang Zilan standing not far away at a glance. She couldn't help but widen her eyes and called out "Master Yue Guogong".

Fang Zilan turned around, "I'll stay here tonight, you go back." She didn't deliberately raise her voice, but it was just enough for Fang Zitong in the room to hear clearly.

The servant girl nodded, bowed and said, "I'm sorry, Lord Lao Yue, please worry about it." After saying that, she left.

Fang Zilan walked to the porch beside the house and sat on the railing.But Fang Zitong heard that there was no movement outside, so he went to the window to have a look.

The moonlight was hazy and the stars were dim, and Fang Zilan's white fox fur cloak was particularly conspicuous in the dark night. She was half leaning on the railing, but at this time she suddenly looked towards the window for some reason.

Fang Zitong felt guilty for no reason, even though the windows were closed, she always felt that Fang Zilan had seen her through through the window paper.

So she simply turned her back, didn't look at the people outside, walked back to the bed and lay down, stared at the bed curtain above her head for a while, and then slowly closed her eyes.

Maybe it was because she knew that Fang Zilan was outside, or maybe it was because the past few days were too long and exhausted, Fang Zitong stopped tossing and turning, and soon fell asleep.

Fang Zilan heard that there was no movement in the house, so she closed her eyes and rested her mind, thinking about everything that happened in the Pei family.

According to what Dong Xue said, Fang Zitong shot and wounded Pei Juanqing with a sleeve arrow for the purpose of self-defense. Although what she saw with her own eyes was only a scratch, Pei Yuqing died. The most suspicious weapon must have been tampered with. Maybe it was poisoned.

The key question is, who poisoned the Xiujian?What is that man's purpose?
Seeing the behavior of the Pei family in the daytime, it is clear that they want to kill Fang Zitong unjustly, then the real reason for Pei Gongqing's death will be covered up.

From this point of view, the person behind it either made Fang Zitong his own scapegoat, or used Pei Juanqing's death to put Fang Zitong to death, thereby dragging the entire Fang family into trouble.

No matter what the reason is, this person hates Pei Juanqing very much, and Fang Zitong and Fang's family have no good intentions.The Pei family should be the latter, if the former...

Even if she hated her so much, she would not kill Pei Gongqing easily for the sake of family glory.

After all, no matter how poor the Pei family was, they knew very well in their hearts that once Pei Juanqing died, no one would be able to hold up the lintel, and it would be a matter of time before the Pei family collapsed.

But if it wasn't for the Pei family, who would it be?

Fang Zilan frowned, feeling like falling into a fog, everything around her was confusing and confusing, and she couldn't grasp anything.

In a daze, she vaguely heard Fang Zitong's voice, and opened her eyes again, and it was dawn.

"You're awake." Fang Zitong held the brocade quilt in his hand, looking coy and in a dilemma.

Seeing this, Fang Zilan wanted to say something, but she sneezed. Hearing the sound, Fang Zitong's eyes flashed with panic, "Are you catching a cold?"

"It's nothing." Fang Zilan sneezed again before she finished speaking.

So Fang Zitong wrapped the brocade quilt tightly around her body without hesitation, and said aggressively: "Master Yue is an important minister in the capital, if something goes wrong, I can't bear it."

Fang Zilan subconsciously pulled the quilt on her body, but not only did she not pull it off, but her whole body looked chubby, like a dumpling.She pulled her hand out and said helplessly, "Second Miss Fang, I'm not so weak."

It was rare for Fang Zitong to see her like this, so she couldn't help but curled the corners of her lips, but before she could say anything more, she saw the servant girl coming in a hurry, followed by Awan.

"Okay, my family, Awan, is here." Fang Zilan pulled off the brocade quilt neatly, and handed it back to Fang Zitong, "Second Miss Fang, don't worry about me."

"Who's worried..." Fang Zitong was interrupted by A Wan before she finished speaking, "Master Fang, Miss Dongxue is dead."

She didn't notice Fang Zitong until she finished speaking, but it was too late to cover it up, "Second Miss Fang..."

"What did you say?" Fang Zitong stepped forward and pressed A Wan's shoulder, her eyes were red, "How could Dongxue..."

"Second Miss Fang, please give me your condolences." A Wan's voice was like a mosquito, and she dared not look at Fang Zitong with her head down.

Fang Zilan pushed away Fang Zitong's hand, embraced A Wan, and replied: "Second Miss Fang will not be too late to hear what A Wan has said."

Feeling the temperature coming from her body, A Wan regained her composure and said apologetically, "When Miss Dongxue was sent back to our house by Sister Xiao, she already hurt her heart and lungs. I originally thought..."

She paused, her voice weakened, "I didn't expect to find that Miss Dongxue had died early this morning."

Fang Zilan frowned slightly, A Wan's words were vague, thinking about what happened, she didn't want to mention it in front of Fang Zitong.

Thinking of this, Fang Zilan comforted Fang Zitong calmly, and then asked the maid to send her back to rest.

A Wan hesitated to speak, Fang Zilan held her wrist and took her to the room where she lived, "What's going on?"

"Someone poisoned Miss Dongxue." A Wan whispered, "Although the dose was small, Miss Dongxue was seriously injured, so she died last night..."

She didn't continue, Fang Zilan's expression turned cold, "Have you found out who it is?"

"It's been found out, it's a servant in the house." A Wan nodded and said, "I judged from the poison he gave him that he is a ghost. Brother Chu dragged him out overnight, but he refused to admit it. In the end, he committed suicide by taking poison, and even scared Sister Cong, and everyone else in the house was also very scared..."

Fang Zilan didn't listen to what was said later, she never thought that Ji Ningtian would embarrass the Fang family of Xiangfu.Back then, Fang Chongzheng helped him to fake the broken leg and disability. Even though the two sides have had little contact over the years and have never expressed their views, this is still a clue after all.

At this juncture, the Pei family is useless, and Ji Ning ordered the people from the ghost gate to poison Zitong's favorable witnesses, what good can he gain?

Fang Zilan couldn't figure it out, but Xia Chongzheng hadn't returned to Beijing yet, the situation in the palace was unknown, Jing Zhao Yin's mansion might find Fang Zitong at any time, Fang Lixing might not be able to handle it.

She simply took a leave of absence and went back and forth between her own mansion and the prime minister's mansion. While tracking down the young servant who committed suicide by taking poison and the ghost gate, she accompanied Fang Zitong to recall the circumstances of Pei Yuqing's death, trying to find some clues, but unfortunately there was not much progress on both sides. smoothly.

Fortunately, Jingzhao Yin's Mansion has never looked for Fang Zitong, and Fang Zilan can finally breathe a sigh of relief temporarily.However, before she breathed a sigh of relief, she heard the news that Ouyang Zirou was going to be interrogated by Jing Zhao Yin's House.

Jingzhao Yin's mansion publicly accused him of murdering Duke Ping, and the person who made the accusation was Ouyang Zirou's brother, Ouyang Zongrui.

 Ouyang Zirou: I never thought that it could be related to me.Some brothers, it is better not to have...
