Dressed as the mistress of the Hou family, I became the white moonlight in the Beijing circle

"What's the difference?" Fang Lan sat up straight and looked a little more solemn.

Fang Xu frowned and said softly, "They came suddenly this time and brought the yamen guard who was guarding the prison as a witness. Sister, if you think about it carefully, how did the Pei family persuade the yamen servants when they had neither money nor power?"

When Fang Lan heard this, he frowned and lowered his voice, "You mean... someone is behind this?"

"That should be the case." Fang Xu dusted off his skirt, his face calm and calm, "When I rebelled against the general, both the Yamen and the two elders of the Pei family turned their heads and looked at the crowd, as if they were looking for someone. .”

The room was quiet for a while, then Fang Lan raised his eyes and whispered, "Are you someone who has doubts in your heart?"

Fang Xu narrowed his eyes and said in an understatement, "Everyone who opposed me is almost dead, only one is left."

Hearing his sister's words, Fang Lan's eyelids twitched, "Who?"

Fang Xu raised his eyebrows, looked at his sister, smiled faintly, and said, "Princess Duanyang."

"Her?" Fang Lan's eyes dimmed and he murmured, "I forgot about her... But you have no evidence, what can you do to her with just suspicion?"

"Why must there be evidence?" Fang Xu closed his eyes and said in a condensed voice, "She and I have reached the point where it's either Duanyang or Fang Xu. Only one of us can live. If the bright one can't be used, I will use the dark one, no matter what. No matter what, I will not be a loser."

Fang Lan twitched the corner of her mouth and whispered, "I can't believe that my sister who cries when she doesn't get what she wants actually grew up to be an outlaw."

"You can have some snacks and don't capsize in the gutter."

"Sister's words really compliment her." Fang Lan raised his chin slightly and replied softly, "Duanyang is not a ditch here."

"You have the same temperament as me in not taking advantage of others." Fang Lan glanced at her, the corners of his mouth raised, and a flash of relief flashed in his eyes, "What are your plans for the next step?"

After a short pause, Fang Xu rubbed his eyebrows and whispered, "Sister once told me that Princess Duanyang's consort is not dead."

"You don't want to make a fuss out of this, right?" Fang Lan was stunned, and her heart tightened, "This is just a rumor, we will definitely survive!"

A smile appeared on Fang Xu's lips, and he said softly, "Whether she can be sentenced to death depends on your sister's ability."

When Fang Lan heard this, his head was as big as two, "How...how...you still have the ability to make the dead come alive?"

Fang Xu no longer answered her words, but just pursed his lips and smiled, a flash of determination flashed in his eyes, "Water can carry a boat or capsize it. Those in power value the people's hearts the most. If Duanyang's actions go against the will of the people, I don't believe those above." He can still be killed by a collision."

"And..." Fang Xu sneered and said quietly, "Duanyang is too ambitious. Once her actions are exposed, no one can protect her."

Fang Lan took the tea from Xunfang, took a sip, calmed down the anger in her heart, and lowered her voice, "Besides other things, I have been Duanyang's sister-in-law for more than ten years. I understand her temperament and her simple mind. , Arrogant and domineering..."

"To be able to come up with so many dirty tricks to deal with you, someone must be giving her advice." Fang Lan looked worried, "There is no guarantee that there is a big shot behind her."

"No matter how big a person is, is he bigger than the emperor?" Fang Xu leaned back and said in a calm tone, "Duanyang wants to reach the top of ten thousand people. My sister thinks... if the emperor knows about this, he will look at it. Do you want to keep her for the sake of flesh and blood?"

Fang Lan choked and was speechless for a moment.

If the royal family really cared about blood, the War King would not be beheaded in the street.

"That's all." Fang Lan held his forehead and said quietly, "If you need me, just ask."

Fang Xu raised the corners of his lips, and the cold light in his eyes was imperceptible.

Dongcheng Shen Family
"Sir, you have been sitting in front of the case for a long time. Please take a rest first." Wen Mo held the tea cup and gently placed it on the desk. His eyes fell on the man beside him, his tone was quite helpless.

Shen Ji had no intention of looking up at him, and all his attention was focused on the pile of letters in front of him. "I'm not tired. It's not too late to rest after reading this."

Wen Mo let out a long sigh and pursed his lips, "Sir, you have no enmity or enmity with Princess Duanyang, why are you so concerned?"

Shen Ji didn't even raise his head, and said in an upright tone, "This person has done many evil things. I have already found out some clues. When the time comes, I will read her book, which will be considered to be in compliance with public opinion."

"What does it mean to comply with public opinion?" Wen Mo snorted and said Yin Yang, "Sir, what you said is nice! He is sincere, but it's just for the sake of Mrs. Yongcheng!"

Shen Ji squeezed Xinjiao's hand and looked calm, "You are really becoming more and more emboldened. Now you dare to arrange for me?"

"Whether it's a small arrangement or not, sir, you know clearly." Wen Mo was dissatisfied and muttered in a low voice, "Every time I see Mrs. Yong Chenghou, sir, she smiles like a morning glory. Who can't tell?"

Shen Ji was stunned for a moment and secretly cursed in his heart.

I didn’t see the Mrs. Yongcheng Hou you mentioned.

"Sir, I know that Mrs. Hou Yongcheng is good-looking, but you have to think about it carefully!" Wen Mo looked worried and whispered, "Sir, you haven't married yet, but Mrs. Hou..."

"She is married and has a child." Shen Ji raised his eyes and looked directly at him, "Is this what you want to say?"

Wen Mo paused and nodded sadly.

"I never felt like these were issues."

Shen Ji seemed to be mocking himself, and smiled, "Yongcheng Hou had great military exploits and never suffered a defeat during his lifetime. He has a lot of meritorious service and a straight back. It's true that the two of them got married from a very high starting point."

"If I want to win the favor of my wife, I have to carve out a path in the officialdom and have a higher position than the Marquis. Only then can I protect mother and son from being humiliated."

Wen Mo looked puzzled and whispered, "Sir, I'm trying to persuade..."

"I know, I still have many shortcomings," Shen Ji ignored him and sighed to himself, "I'm not worthy of such a good wife."

Wen Mo was dumbfounded and murmured, "First...Sir...Mrs. Hou doesn't know your thoughts, so you have calculated so much?"

Shen Ji glanced at him, his ears turning red, "To be honest, I've even thought about the name of our child in the future."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a strange sound outside the door.

Both people in the room were startled. They looked for the source of the sound and saw Xie Li's livid handsome face.

"Thank you... thank you..." Wen Mo's face suddenly lost color, and he couldn't hold his tongue straight for a while. He stuttered for a long time, but he didn't even say a second word of thanks.

Shen Ji quickly came to his senses, his face remained as usual, and he called out in a warm voice, "Xie Li, why are you here?"

"I really shouldn't have come at this time." Xie Li's face was gloomy, his hands hidden under his sleeves were tightly clenched into fists, and he said in a deep voice, "Brother Shen, I regard you as my elder brother, but you are still thinking about my mother? "
