Don't Ask Where People Go After Time Travel

Chapter 1462 Fall
Ouyang Zirou smiled and said, "Your Majesty has promised in person, and the Empress has guaranteed it. In addition, the Ministry of Revenue has checked it out. The Fang family has legitimately become a great imperial merchant serving the country and the people. It can't be considered ostentatious. Moreover, if we talk about ostentation, it has to be the Huangfu family in the north and the Dugu family in the west. After receiving the order from His Majesty, these two families quickly reorganized two armies and rushed over. They even said that they would make sure that the people of Miluo would never return. This is the real ostentation."

As she spoke, a hint of shyness suddenly flashed in her eyes, "Young General Dugu Ming of the Dugu family is really amazing. Not only is he handsome, but he was also the first to lead the army here when the food and grass had not yet arrived."

Fang Zilan asked in confusion: "Why haven't I seen General Dugu Ming leading his troops to help?"

"Master Fang, you don't know that Qiluo City was surrounded and almost isolated. The Miluo people took the opportunity to extend the battle line to the north. If it weren't for the bravery of General Dugu Ming, who stopped the Miluo people for a few days and waited for reinforcements, I'm afraid..." Ouyang Zirou didn't say anything else. Fang Zilan understood in her heart, "I may not be able to hold on in Qiluo City for so long, right?"

Ouyang Zirou pursed her lips and did not answer directly, "How can young General Dugu Ming be compared with Lord Fang? He knows that he has reinforcements behind him, so he is fearless, but Lord Fang, you..."

She paused suddenly and changed the subject, "As for the southeast region, I don't know why King Rong'an suddenly stepped forward to help resettle the refugees and resolve the riots, which allowed the troops from the southeast camp to arrive in time to join the forces."

"Don't you know why?" Fang Zilan repeated in a low voice, and Ouyang Zirou nodded, "Yes, but as the uncle of your majesty, it is common sense for Prince Rong'an to put justice first."

Fang Zilan did not respond. She knew what kind of person King Rong An was. He put justice first? He was not worthy of it. There must be something hidden.

Ouyang Zirou did not notice the frost in her eyes, and continued to talk to herself: "But if we talk about the most powerful one, it is still Lord Wei. I heard from my father that before His Majesty said in the court that before he personally led the army to fight, the pro-war faction and the pro-peace faction were about to tear off the golden roof of the palace. The pro-war faction felt that Lord Fang had lost troops and generals because of the grain robbery, and it was not good to defend the city. The pro-peace faction said that you were just delaying time, and how could you delay with the loss of troops and generals? It is better to ask for peace as soon as possible. Lord Wei stood up at this time."

Ouyang Zirou said with longing, "Lord Wei said, 'The battle between Dajing and Miluo is extremely dangerous. No matter who goes to the battle, there is no certainty. Lord Fang is like this, and so am I. Now Lord Fang is still fighting for her life on the battlefield, but everyone in the hall is talking and blaming her behind her back. Since everyone in the hall is resourceful and decisive, and is sure to drive back the Miluo people, why not replace Lord Fang? Who can do it?'"

She finished speaking in one breath, then sighed and said, "Lord Wei is really amazing. After he finished speaking, the whole hall fell silent. Then His Majesty said that since no one was sure, he would lead the army himself. The fate of Dajing will be decided by him."

"Lord Pei Xiaoze is reasonable, but Duke Lan is not so easy to talk to." Zhuge Yu lowered his eyes to look at the document in her hand and advised: "Sister Lan, please read it carefully again. Don't let the people from the Ministry of Revenue find any mistakes."

"Duke Lan is no longer the Minister of Revenue, but he can still stretch his hands so far?" Fang Zilan snorted coldly, but still patiently read the document in her hand carefully.

The more she read, the tighter her brows furrowed. "There are a few items here that are indeed questionable. I'll have someone verify them first. If they are correct, I'll go to the Ministry of Revenue in person."

"Okay." Zhuge Yu nodded, then called his subordinate officials in and explained the parts that needed to be verified one by one.

Fang Zilan roughly went through the documents on the case, and then assigned them to different people to handle. It was already past noon when the work was completed. She felt hungry in her belly and was about to go out to eat something when she saw Zhuge Yu walking in with lunch.

Seeing this, she couldn't help but sigh, "Ayu, you are so considerate."

Zhuge Yu put the lunch on the table while listening to her sighing: "I thought that a youngest child like Yu would be treated like a treasure and raised with great care, but I never thought that he would be so caring." "In the Zhuge family of the capital, apart from my brother, I am the only one left in my generation." Zhuge Yu said indifferently, "My brother is mostly away, so naturally I have to take care of the grandfather and elders at home. After a long time, I got used to it."

Fang Zilan was keenly aware that she might have said something she shouldn't have said, so she was silent for a moment before speaking again and said, "Speaking of which, these days when I have been closed down, the government has accumulated a lot of official work. I'm afraid they have to be busy. It’s been a while.”

Zhuge Yu didn't say anything, he just looked at her steadily until her hand holding the chopsticks stopped, "A Yu?"

"Sister Lan, do you really want to keep Mo Han in the capital?" Zhuge Yu asked suddenly. Fang Zilan was stunned for a moment and whispered: "That kid Mo Han has always had good ideas, I'm afraid he can't help me."

A flash of astonishment flashed in Zhuge Yu's eyes, "Can't you help me?"

"Yes." Fang Zilan smiled and said helplessly: "He relies on me to pamper him. He has been like this since he was a child. As long as he opens his mouth, I can't do anything to him."

"Since childhood?" Zhuge Yu repeated the word, and Fang Zilan looked a little more nostalgic, "We grew up together since childhood, but unfortunately we got separated later. Now that I find him again, I can't bear to push him away. "

"The land of tigers and wolves is not suitable for a white rabbit to live." Zhuge Yu looked away and said coldly: "If he stays, he will die without a burial place."

Hearing this, Fang Zilan murmured as if to herself: "I'm here, can't I protect him?"

Zhuge Yu glanced at her and shook his head gently, "If you continue to break up, you will suffer." After saying that, he turned and left.

Fang Zilan finished her lunch without any taste, stood up and planned to go for a walk in the courtyard, when she heard reports from subordinate officials that the verification part had been completed.

She checked it again, made sure there was nothing wrong, and left for the Ministry of Finance. The current Minister of Hubu was originally a disciple of the Pei family. He entered the Hubu when he first entered the officialdom. He was promoted by Pei Juqing, Duke of Jui.

Although the Pei family is standing behind the Secretary of the Household Department, he is not rigid and strong. On the contrary, he has a smiling face and is surprisingly easy to talk to. No matter what Fang Zilan says, he nods in agreement, but when the topic comes to the topic, he looks away from him.

After a whole hour, Fang Zilan was so thirsty with him, but he still smiled and handed her tea and water to persuade her not to get angry. His smile was like a friendly lucky cat, which made her lose her temper. Losing his temper, he could only go home in the end.

Zhuge Yu was not surprised to see her return without success, but comforted him: "The Minister of the Ministry of Finance is a smooth man, and it is not easy to deal with him. This matter cannot be rushed, and must be discussed in the long run."
