Don't Ask Where People Go After Time Travel

Fang Zilan said bluntly: "The Mo family went through this disaster because of the mistake made by Mo Bin, the helmsman of the family, and this mistake happened to be taken advantage of by the prince. Otherwise, if Mo Bin had sent troops to the outside of Mushan Pass or asked for help from General Xiahou at that time, would the prince still have a chance to complain?"

Prince Rong'an's heart tightened, but his expression remained calm. "Since Lord Fang believes that the long-term prosperity of the family cannot rely on outsiders, why are you negotiating such conditions with me?"

"No matter how powerful a family is, it cannot withstand constant assassination with ulterior motives, so what I have to do is to cut off the source of the assassination." Fang Zilan's tone suddenly became colder, "I'm sure the prince knows the source."

King Rong'an looked at the person in front of him thoughtfully, his expression gradually becoming more serious, "Master Fang made everything clear and left no room for anything. Are you really not afraid that I will bear a grudge against you?"

"Hold grudges?" Fang Zilan suddenly laughed out loud, "Your Majesty has done so many things that are worthy of being hated. I'm afraid he will be hated by many people day and night. Have you ever been afraid?"

"You..." King Rongan's face was as cold as ice. He was about to say something but was interrupted by Fang Zilan, "Of course I'm not afraid. What's more, the purpose of my trip is to make the prince bear grudge against me."

"What do you mean?" A trace of astonishment flashed in King Rong'an's eyes, and he heard Fang Zilan say: "The people outside Mushan Pass who were tortured by pirates, all the people in the southeast who were infected with the plague - the fishermen on the East China Sea Fishing Islands, the Linjia Village The villagers, as well as many people in the villages and towns who lost their lives for this reason, I, the Duke of the Kingdom of Jingyue, Zilan, have remembered all these blood debts, and one day, I will recover them from the prince one by one. "

She paused for a moment as she spoke, "Your Majesty, you may hold a grudge against me. The ugly words are ahead. If Your Majesty can't crush me to ashes, you can only wait for me to collect debts."

She spoke every word very harshly, but the look on her face was very indifferent, only showing a little coldness. However, the clear black and white pupils were full of undisguised cruel killing intent.

King Rong'an couldn't help being shocked. He had been in the southeast for many years and was used to being domineering. There were many people who dared to be angry but dare not speak out. Occasionally, he would meet one or two who refused to submit. Even though they say they are powerful, most of them are not strong-willed. They would rather die than surrender. I didn't expect that Fang Zilan would be so bold and openly threaten him...

No, she's not a threat.

An inexplicable fear suddenly surged in King Rong'an's heart. For some reason, he was very sure that if he couldn't crush Fang Zilan's bones into ashes, Fang Zilan would definitely let him die a miserable death.

"How?" Fang Zilan took the rest of the paper on the table and said quietly: "Have you thought it through, Your Majesty?"

King Rong'an looked at the person in front of him steadily, and after a while he said solemnly: "I have agreed to Lord Fang's two conditions. From now on, I and Lord Fang will have no contact with each other until death."

"Okay." Fang Zilan nodded slightly, "If we meet again, either you will die or I will live." After she said that, she stood up and raised her hand, and the pieces of paper in her palm turned into crumbs, falling from the air and scattered on the ground.

She left without looking back, and King Rong'an looked at her back with a sinister look in his eyes. He originally thought that she would not be able to walk out of the epidemic area alive, but who knew that not only did she come out alive, but she also had an extra glory that made him unable to move.

He angrily threw the teacup on the table and said sternly: "Fang Zilan, one day, I will grind your bones and scatter your ashes, and add you to flower mud." "I wonder if your majesty knows how a craftsman forges a sharp sword?" Zhuge Yu did not answer this question directly. He said in a calm voice: "When a craftsman forges a sword, he first selects materials layer by layer, and then melts them in a furnace to remove impurities. After that, he forges and hammers them, and repeatedly hits them to make an iron tool. If you want to make a sharp sword, the last process, and the most important one, is quenching. If you can't withstand the test of quenching, you can't make a sword that can cut iron like mud."

He coughed lightly and continued, "Mo Han to Fang Zilan is like tempering to forging a sword. When he dies, that will be the day when the sword will be sharpened. However, the one who appeared in the world at that time..."

Before he could continue, Li Shengxuan said: "It must be an evil sword, killing everyone."

Zhuge Yu nodded slightly, "Everything is too much, and too little is too much. If the sword is forced to take a wrong turn, even if there is a way out, you will still be inferior. I think your Majesty is not willing to break the sword in your hand and give others an opportunity... "

"Zhuge Yu, you have crossed the line." Li Shengxuan interrupted him coldly. He bowed respectfully and said, neither humble nor overbearing: "Your Majesty, please forgive me."

Li Shengxuan let out a long sigh, "I would like to be her source of confidence, but she would rather risk her own life than tell me. Sometimes I wonder, is it her whom I blame and doubt, or myself?"

Zhuge Yu opened his mouth, but he swallowed his words when he heard them. He listened to Li Shengxuan, as if talking to himself, and said in a low voice: "I blame myself for having an unstable foundation. Some people, some things, I have bad intentions." I am powerless and have no choice. I doubt myself and cannot become a wise king. Even the Xiahou family is disheartened and wants to leave me..."

At the end, he suddenly laughed like a self-mockery, "I'm telling you this, do you think it's funny?"

Zhuge Yu bit his lips tightly, forcing himself not to make any sound. It was as if he had accidentally seen the majestic and ferocious beast in the past, cutting open his belly, breaking through all the fragility, and exposing it in front of him.

But he didn't dare, let alone look at it.

But the ferocious beast did not let him go. "When she said that she had no regrets, I realized that she could say these four simple words easily, but I couldn't say them out."

Do you have a clear conscience? Zhuge Yu chewed on these four words secretly, and his heart couldn't calm down for a long time. When it comes to achieving the goal, neither Li Shengxuan nor he would be exaggerated to say that they have no regrets. But when it comes to the process, the end justifies the means. Under the rule of success or defeat, if we look closely at the many mistakes that have been covered up, who is really clear about it?

It's not that Li Shengxuan doesn't know, on the contrary, in the supreme position, he understands better than anyone else, but is more stubborn than anyone else. How could he not be a wise king like this?
Zhuge Yu thought about this and said as he thought: "Whether you have a clear conscience or not, in Zhuge Yu's heart, Your Majesty is a wise ruler."

He spoke each word with dignity, "My grandfather once told me that a ruler should think about the people and do what the people want. A wise ruler should not only understand the people, but also understand himself. Your Majesty's words today are worthy of it."

After he finished speaking, he bowed solemnly and then turned and left. Li Shengxuan stared at his back, unable to react for a long time.
