Chapter 1368 Hesitation

Fu Congnan couldn't stop her, nor could he not stop her, so he could only force a smile and said, "Madam, this is my house after all, I am more familiar with it, and I'm looking for the prince..."

"General Fu wants to get rid of me?" Fang Zilan interrupted Fu Congnan's next words. The smile on his face became more and more stiff. "That's not my intention, it's just..."

He paused, then quietly gestured to the soldiers behind him, and the secret door suddenly closed.

"Miss Zhen, are you really the wife of the prince?" Fu Congnan still had a smile on his face, but there was a sinister undertone. "Or let me ask it another way. Are you really Miss Fang San?"

Fang Zilan looked at Fu Congnan leisurely, "If I'm not Miss Fang San, who does General Fu think I am?"

"Miss Zhen, it's impossible for a substitute marriage to be foolproof. If Prince Zhongzheng knew that the person he married was not Miss Fang San, but someone unknown..." Fu Congnan dragged his voice and said, "Do you think everyone in Prince Zhongzheng's mansion will give up? Does the Fang family still have a way out?"

"Why can't I understand a word General Fu is saying?" Fang Zilan's expression turned cold. "What do you mean by substitutionary marriage..."

"Miss Zhen, even if you deny it, it's too late." Fu Congnan laughed as if he had heard something funny. "When your majesty was still the Prince of Xiang, you asked to marry Miss Fang San, and your love for her was so deep that it made others envious. How could you watch her marry Prince Yu Zhongzheng and become a widow now?"

There was an unconcealable teasing look in his eyes. "I was curious before, why did the troops invade Lincheng? It turns out that they wanted to get you, Miss Zhen, to marry into the Zhongzheng Palace. It's a pity that you went to the Jiangnan camp alone for His Majesty, but in the end you were sold to the people of Miluo..."

"So this is how General Fu sees me." Fang Zilan raised her lips, but a layer of frost condensed in her eyes, "If that's the case, then I might as well be honest with you. I'm Fang Zilan, the third daughter of the Fang family. I'm the one Li Shengxuan once wanted to marry, and I was also the one he sold to Miluo. I'm here today for Fang Lihui."

After she finished speaking, regardless of Fu Congnan's stunned expression, she pulled out the short knife hidden on her body and pointed it directly at his chest, "Be sensible and hand over Fang Lihui. Otherwise, I don't mind turning your birthday into your death anniversary."

People are always reluctant to expose their shortcomings, so when Fang Zilan told everything, whether it was true or false, she had already won half the battle in terms of momentum.

What's more, Fang Zilan didn't say a single falsehood. She has always been bold and responsible for her actions.

Hong Tai, hiding in the dark, watched coldly, feeling inexplicably sad in her heart. She had come to this point after all, and she could only use herself as a bargaining chip.

"Miss Fang San?" Fu Congnan repeated the name playfully, "The third Miss Fang who is said to be hiding in the boudoir and is so frail?"

"It's true that I'm hiding in the boudoir, but it's not necessarily true that I'm weak and fragile." Fang Zilan knew what Fu Congnan was thinking without having to guess. In his mind, Third Miss Fang and Zhen from Qianjinfang could not be the same person.

It doesn't matter which is true and which is false, what she has to do now is to delay the time, after A Wan recruits everyone and makes things big, the chance of taking Fang Lihui away will be even greater.

So she simply asked, "If I was really so delicate, why would Li Shengxuan ask to marry me? He wants to be the master of the world, so he can't make any mistakes, let alone such an important matter as marrying a wife."

There was a hint of suspicion in Fu Congnan's eyes. Fang Zilan saw it clearly and simply added fuel to the fire, "Could it be that General Fu has heard too many rumors and thinks that Li Shengxuan is just a young man with a romantic personality?"

After a while, Awan heard someone knocking on the door, and asked impatiently, "Who is it?" There was no response. Awan frowned, walked over and opened the door, but saw that there was no one outside, only a bottle of medicine on the ground. She opened it and smelled it, and it was golden medicine.

As if she could no longer hold back her anger, A Wan subconsciously threw the medicine bottle away. "Who cares? I risked my life and didn't dare to relax for a moment, fearing that if I was a step late, something would happen to her..."

The more she spoke, the more aggrieved she felt. She simply squatted down, hugged her arms, and cried loudly, "But she is so good that she is related to the Miluo High Priest. I worried for nothing... Asshole!"

Xiao Xuan'er, hiding in the dark, had a gloomy expression. She was about to step out to comfort Awan, but saw Li Qiyou and Zhuge Yu walking quickly towards her, so she had to leave first.

"Miss Awan, what are you doing..." Li Qiyou walked up to Awan and realized something as soon as he opened his mouth, "Could it be that the Crown Prince's wife..."

"Bah, Third Miss Fang is fine, Your Highness, please stop cursing her!" Awan interrupted Li Qiyou before he could finish his words, but her words were vulgar, like a street curse, which choked Li Qiyou so much that his face turned pale.

Instead, Zhuge Yu smiled and said, "Since Miss Fang San is safe and sound, then why is Miss Awan..."

"Why, I've been running around for days, can't I complain?" Awan was like a little firecracker, ignited at a touch, and exploded whoever she saw. "Master Zhuge, have you been an official for so long that you want to control everyone you see?"

Zhuge Yu coughed lightly, "That's not what I meant..."

  "Then what do you mean?" A Wan stood up suddenly, her eyes red. "This is not the first time she has pretended to be dead. Why does she let me know at the end every time? Who does she think I am? And you, you always help the evil, what qualifications do you have to point fingers at me? Do you really think I can come and go at will?

"That... Miss Awan." Zheng Yan's voice suddenly sounded, and Awan was startled. "General Zheng? Why are you here..."

Zheng Yan didn't explain, but said awkwardly: "I always find out at the last minute."

Awan's expression froze, as if she had bumped into cotton. "General Zheng, how can you say that so matter-of-factly?"

"I think Fang..." Zheng Yan stopped talking, as if he didn't know how to address her. He hesitated and said, "She must have her own reasons. Miss Wan, please don't be angry with her."

His serious and sincere look left Awan speechless, especially seeing him, who was usually taciturn, trying so hard to protect Fang Zilan, which made her inexplicably unbearable...

Seeing that Awan had calmed down, Li Qiyou took out the medicine hidden in his sleeve and said, "I see that Miss Awan was seriously injured. This medicine..."

"Thank you, Your Highness." Awan said awkwardly, but she took the medicine from Li Qiyou without hesitation, and then turned to Zhuge Yu, "Master Zhuge, don't you have anything to say?"

Zhuge Yu laughed dumbly, but still took out the medicine he had prepared long ago, "This is the Zhuge family's homemade golden medicine, which is very effective in treating external injuries. Miss Awan might as well give it a try."
