Don't Ask Where People Go After Time Travel

Chapter 1393 Calculation

"Master Pei, it doesn't matter who I am." Fang Zilan looked at the astonished man in front of her and said in a deep voice, "What matters is, can you do it?"

"I..." Pei Xiaoze opened his mouth, only to feel that Fang Zilan's question weighed a thousand pounds, making it almost impossible for him to breathe.

At that time, he escaped from the Pei family case. The head of the family, Pei Ranqing, died, and Lian Niang went from being a victim to being the perpetrator. She was tried and sentenced, but he escaped unscathed.

Unexpectedly, after migrating thousands of miles to the southeast, we were still in a dilemma.

It turns out that people can’t escape just because they want to. Even if they escape once, there will always be another time, and there will always be a time when they can’t escape.

This time, he didn't want to escape. No matter what it was, it should be resolved, and it would be worthy of the name of the Pei family.

"I understand." Pei Xiaoze's face was pale, revealing an indescribable dejection, but in his eyes, there was a determination that had never been seen before, "This time, I won't run away again."

"Okay." Fang Zilan hadn't finished her words when she saw Su Yun walking quickly towards her, followed by Zhuge Yu who couldn't catch up with him. "Master Su, wait a moment..."

Fang Zilan raised her eyebrows. It was really lively this early morning with everyone taking the stage.

"Madam, the Crown Prince." Su Yun stood in front of Fang Zilan and bowed respectfully. "I came here today to seek the testimony of the First Yue Kingdom."

Zhuge Yu's hand stopped in mid-air. He ultimately failed to stop Su Yun in time. If he really forced Fang Zilan to step forward...

Zhuge Yu didn't dare to think about the consequences.

Fang Zilan looked at Su Yun who was standing straight in front of her and asked, "Master Su, have you thought it through?"

"I... have thought it through." Su Yun took a deep breath. Fang Zilan held the prepared testimony hidden in her sleeve tightly in her hand, "Even if the Su family is destroyed and you become a sinner for all eternity..."

"Even so." Su Yun interrupted Fang Zilan and said word by word: "Su Yun has no regrets and no complaints."

"I'll leave it to you." Fang Zilan took out the testimony. The pages were covered with fingerprints, which looked very much like them. They struggled secretly for a long time, but were still exposed in broad daylight.

Su Yun's hands were shaking. He slowly took the thin pages of paper, calmed himself, and said the words he had been thinking about for a long time, "I have another unwelcome request..."

"Lord Su, that's enough!" Zhuge Yu stood in front of Fang Zilan, "I know what happened in the southeast that year. It's not necessary for the Crown Prince's wife to stand up."

"Although Mo Han has talent, he is only worthy of the title of guest official." Fang Zilan said coldly: "He does not have the ability to implement new laws now, and he will not have it in the future."

"That's too absolute." Li Shengxuan said solemnly, "The so-called ability is acquired through training, not innate. Even you are not born as the Duke of Yue."

"Since I have assumed the position of Duke of Yue, I will not live up to the name." Fang Zilan's face was as gloomy as water, "But Mo Han is different."

Li Shengxuan frowned and said, "What's so different about Mo Han? I can also grant him an official position..."

"Your Majesty!" Fang Zilan interrupted him abruptly, took a deep breath and said, "It is so difficult to implement the new law. Not only do we have to weigh the pros and cons and appease all parties, but we also have to be decisive and have outstanding means of killing and killing. I..."

She paused, bit her lip and said, "I can risk everything, but only Mo Han..."

"Do you want to implement the new law on behalf of Mo Han?" Li Shengxuan interrupted her and frowned even more tightly.

Fang Zilan didn't hesitate, "If His Majesty orders, I will not refuse even if I have to die." After she said that, she bowed respectfully. Li Shengxuan understood completely that Fang Zilan could sacrifice her own life, and the lives of others, but not Mo Han.

"You..." Li Shengxuan gritted his teeth. Fang Zilan said calmly, "This is my selfish desire. I hope Your Majesty will understand."

"What a selfish thought." Li Shengxuan snorted coldly, "Fang Zilan, have you ever thought that even if I don't care, others will still plot against me. You can protect Mo Han for a while, but can you protect him forever?"

"Whether I can protect you or not, it's all my business." Fang Zilan remained motionless in the posture of saluting, "Your Majesty, please don't worry about it."

"Fang Zilan, why are you..." Li Shengxuan endured it, waved his sleeves and didn't say anything else.

Fang Zilan pursed her lips and wanted to say something to ease the situation, but Li Shengxuan grabbed her arm and brought her in front of him, "Your Majesty..."

"Fang Zilan, if you want to protect Mo Han, then do it." Li Shengxuan sighed, "I will choose someone else to implement the new law."

"Thank you, Your Majesty..." Fang Zilan said as she tried to break free, but Li Shengxuan held her tighter. "I said I'm willing to share the burden with you. No matter what you want to do, I will support you."

He changed his name and spoke sincerely. Fang Zilan was a little dazed, "You..."

She turned her head away, not daring to look directly at Li Shengxuan. "Your Majesty, there is no need to treat me like this. It's not worth it." After she said that, she resolutely shook off Li Shengxuan's hand and took a step back.

"Whether it's worth it or not is my business." Li Shengxuan took a step forward, "Fang Zilan, do you really want to push me away?"

Fang Zilan opened her mouth but no sound came out. Seeing this, Li Shengxuan suddenly smiled, "That's good. At least in your heart, I have weight."

"What?" Fang Zilan looked surprised. Li Shengxuan coughed and said, "Before the Mid-Autumn Palace Banquet, you sent everyone in the mansion away because the situation was unclear and you were afraid that they would be implicated, right?"

Fang Zilan's expression froze, "How did you know..."

"But they still came back." Li Shengxuan said seriously: "They didn't avoid it, and I won't avoid it either."

For some reason, Fang Zilan felt like hiding when she saw the person so close to her. She subconsciously took a step back, her heels stepped on the edge of the corridor column, but the back of her head did not hit it, but leaned on Li Shengxuan's palm.

"Be careful!" Li Shengxuan stretched out his hand to block Fang Zilan's head. She couldn't help but clench her fingers, "Your Majesty..."

"I know you are related to the previous dynasty, and I also know you have a deep relationship with the Ghost Gate." Li Shengxuan continued, "I admit that I care, but what I care more about is when you are willing to tell me."

This was the first time he had spoken out everything he knew so bluntly. It was not as complicated as he had imagined, but rather indescribably easy.

He hadn't seen Fang Zilan for more than a month, and he had been thinking that if they met, he could tell her everything and no longer be shy about anything. But after thinking it over again and again, he felt that it was not right.

It was not until he saw her evasion that he finally made up his mind. The days without her were much harder than he thought. Even though someone around him kept notifying him, he still couldn't stop wanting to see her.

It’s like there are millions of colorful butterflies living in my chest, fluttering around and ready to fly out.

Fang Zilan's lips moved, her voice hoarse, "So, you know everything."
