Chapter 1582 Letters

Fang Zilan stood with a sword in hand, with a sharp look on his face, "It is your Majesty's decree that the general and six deputy generals of Jiangnan Camp will be temporarily detained in the camp, and other soldiers are not allowed to move without permission."

Before she finished speaking, there was a commotion among the soldiers outside the tent, but before they could say anything, she showed off Li Shengxuan's gold medal and said calmly, "Anyone who refuses to comply will be killed on the spot."

It was like a stone stirred up a thousand waves, but Fang Zilan didn't care. She held the plum sword in her left hand and Li Shengxuan's gold medal in her right hand, and slowly walked out of the tent with Ah Shi on her back.

However, Fang Zilan had not gone far when she saw the general and six deputy generals of Jiangnan Camp coming towards her. They were all fierce and looked like they were going to eat her alive.

"What kind of little lady dares to pretend to preach the imperial edict?" The words came before the person arrived, and the contemptuous and loud voice of one of the deputy generals instantly spread throughout the entire camp.

Another sharp-eyed lieutenant next to him saw Ah Shi on Fang Zilan's back and said with a smile: "Could it be that this little boy's lover came to the camp to steal someone?"

As soon as he said this, there was laughter all around, and everyone had a look of ill-intention on their faces, not even half-covered.

Fang Zilan's face was as dark as water, and she said in a cold voice: "In the past, the soldiers of Duke Wei captured good girls for pleasure, and now you are holding the shopkeepers captive for fun. I heard that the soldiers of Duke Wei were skinned alive, and as for you... "

She narrowed her eyes and deliberately said in a flirtatious tone: "But are you tired of living?"

In an instant, the murderous intent that burst out from Fang Zilan swept over the whole place, causing everyone present to be silent.

After a long while, the general coughed twice, his face was uneasy, but he still said eloquently: "Little lady, the person on your back is a waiter, not a shop owner..."

"Do you dare to confront me in front of His Majesty?" Fang Zilan said, taking a step forward with overwhelming force, "Open your dog eyes and see clearly, what is this?"

Li Shengxuan's gold medal in her hand was swaggeringly waved in front of several generals. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was indeed the emperor's token and could not be faked.

But the commander-in-chief and deputy-generals of the first battalion couldn't swallow their anger when they were caught and scolded by an unknown young lady.

Immediately, a deputy general strode up to Fang Zilan and tried to snatch Li Shengxuan's gold medal from her hand. Unexpectedly, she raised her hand and slapped her with the hilt of her plum sword, and she took several steps back.

"Your Majesty's will, I will only convey it once." Fang Zilan's voice was as cold as ice, "If anyone wants to disobey, you might as well give it a try."

After she finished speaking, the plum sword in her hand was unsheathed, its cold light exuding a dangerous and breathtaking brilliance, which was a silent shock.

"Who... are you?" The commander looked unfriendly, while Fang Zilan looked indifferent. "You are just an unknown person who is delivering His Majesty's orders."

"You are just a messenger, and you dare to speak so arrogantly..." The deputy general next to him just started to speak, but was interrupted by Fang Zilan, "Why, I said that you are blind and ignorant, is there anything wrong with that?"

"You are the dog..." Another deputy general said without thinking. Fang Zilan snorted coldly, "Those who are capable will be fought over even if they are dogs. Those who are incompetent will be complained about not being tasty enough even if they are stewed into a pot of dog meat soup."

As she spoke, she glanced at the deputy general who had just spoken with disdain, "People like you are really disgusting if I look at them for even one more time."

The deputy general was obviously enraged, and was about to rush forward to fight Fang Zilan, but was stopped by the commander, "Back off!" Cheng Zhiyan stared at the letter intently, but heard Fang Zilan say calmly, "Sir Cheng, have you never thought of opening it and taking a look? If you had taken one more look, you would have known that the things inside had been replaced long ago."

"You..." Cheng Zhiyan couldn't help but tremble, "Then why did you..."

Before he could finish his question, Fang Zilan interrupted him and said, "It's one thing for me to give you a chance, but it's another thing for me to not trust you and therefore have a backup plan."

She paused, looking down at Cheng Zhiyan who was kneeling on the ground, "I have always been willing to assume the worst of others. This way, I won't be too disappointed."

Hearing this, Li Qiyou raised his head from the letter and looked at the figure standing upright in the hall. He suddenly remembered the night when he first entered Yanzhou City. The situation was extremely dangerous when he was commanding thousands of soldiers under the stage.

But she never retreated, and he followed her and held on. To this day, there is no possibility of retreating after walking this road.

"Cheng Zhiyan, the evidence is conclusive. Do you admit it or not?" Li Qiyou's hand holding the letter suddenly tightened, and a few more wrinkles appeared on the pages, but nothing could distort his heart anymore.

Cheng Zhiyan suddenly laughed out loud, "May I ask where did you get this letter, Madam? Madam, do you know that your husband, the Zhongzheng Prince of Miluo, is Mr. Zuo's..."

"I know." Fang Zilan interrupted Cheng Zhiyan expressionlessly, "My husband Murong Qing is Mr. Zuo's student."

As soon as she said this, the crowd was immediately outraged. For a moment, it was unclear who was collaborating with the enemy.

Murong Qing, who was listening in, clenched his fingers. It's not that he didn't expect Fang Zilan to push him out. On the contrary, when he saw Mr. Zuo's letter, he knew there would be such a moment.

He was not entirely clear about what Mr. Zuo was planning, but he did not dare to say that he had nothing to do with it.

Since she is not innocent, it is only a matter of time before she is implicated. However, Fang Zilan's move seems to be a righteous act, but can she clear herself of the charges?

Is she not going to be satisfied until everyone is dragged down and trampled to death?

Li Qiyou signaled everyone to be quiet, and then raised the letter in his hand and shook it, "This letter does not mention Miluo's loyal and upright prince Murong Qing, Cheng Zhiyan, don't make random inferences."

"If it's not mentioned, does it mean it's innocent?" Cheng Zhiyan seemed to have made up his mind to fight to the death. He knelt straight and said loudly: "Mr. Zuo mentioned in the letter that if Dajing asks for peace and pays tribute, an extra 20% will be given to the Zhongzheng Palace..."

"Sir Cheng, does this count as an admission of guilt?" Fang Zilan interrupted Cheng Zhiyan, but Li Qiyou frowned. Although he only skimmed through the document, he was sure that there was not a single word about the Zhongzheng Palace, let alone a deal like the extra 20%.

But now that things have come to this, in the face of such overwhelming evidence, there is no need for Cheng Zhiyan to lie. Moreover, what good would it do for him to drag Murong Qing into this?

Murong Qing, who was listening in, had a lot of thoughts in his mind, and from their reactions, he had already guessed that Fang Zilan not only secretly replaced Mr. Zuo's letters, but also took away the part related to the Zhongzheng Palace.

So in Li Qiyou's eyes, what Cheng Zhiyan said was bamboo climbing. But why did Fang Zilan do this?

"Madam, did you tamper with the letter? Did you do it for the sake of loyalty to the prince..." Cheng Zhiyan suddenly realized, "Okay, so you are the one collaborating with the enemy."
