Don't Ask Where People Go After Time Travel

Chapter 1600 Dependence

While treating Fang Zilan's wound, A Wan asked angrily, "Do you really not want to live?"

"I should be the one asking you this." Fang Zilan raised her hand and lightly frowned, "When you told a mother that you would trade her daughter's life for money, you should have expected that she would kill you in anger."

"Killing someone means paying with one's life. This is only natural." Awan tightened the bandage. Fang Zilan couldn't help but gasp. "It's not worth it to exchange your life for a girl who died a few years ago."

"Fang Zilan, when you kill people, do you ever consider the status of people?" A Wan snorted and laughed, "Since when have you ever thought that human lives are divided into different levels?"

Fang Zilan clearly heard the sarcasm in Awan's tone, but she was not annoyed at all. Instead, she followed her words and said, "People are divided into different classes, let alone human life?"

A Wan was holding back her anger. After treating her wound, she turned away from looking at Fang Zi Lan. However, she continued, "Little A Wan, your life is in my hands. Have you forgotten?"

"When did my life become in your hands?" Awan turned around and looked at Fang Zilan with a frown, but she reacted as soon as the words came out of her mouth.

"From the moment you took it upon yourself to heal me, our lives were tied together." Fang Zilan stood up. A Wan reached out to help her up, but said, "Why, the life debt I owe is counted on you, and yours should be counted on me?"

"If little Awan is willing..." Fang Zilan dragged her voice, and Awan pinched her, "You wish!"

Fang Zilan smiled and said, "The quarrel is over, and the injury has been treated. What on earth did you come to the government office for? Can you tell me now?"

"You want to wrongfully kill Lord Zhuge?" A Wan asked instead of answering. Fang Zi Lan laughed dumbly, "Are you here to speak up for A Yu?"

"Is it not possible?" A Wan said confidently, "Lord Zhuge has treated you and me well. From the battlefield to the epidemic area, it is not an exaggeration to say that we have a life-and-death friendship. I don't believe that you would kill him unjustly for the sake of Prince Zhongzheng."

"Ayu doesn't believe it either." Fang Zilan restrained her expression, "But the court has already begun. If there is no conclusion, even if he is wrongly killed, we must give an explanation to the Miluo Zhongzheng Palace."

A Wan stared at Fang Zilan in disbelief, "Are you crazy?"

"I've been crazy for more than a day or two. How come you only found out today?" Fang Zilan said, holding Awan's wrist. "I'm afraid things will change in the next few days. When you go back, try not to leave the house again. Remember to tell the prince a few more words for me, and tell him to take good care of his life."

"What are you going to do?" A Wan couldn't help but ask. Fang Zilan didn't say anything, just looked at her, and looked at her like a deflated ball. "Okay, is that not enough for me to say? I'm here to see Dugu Linxiu."

She lowered her head. "If I can't say some things, I will never feel at ease in my life."

"I know." Fang Zilan raised her hand and touched the top of Awan's head. "I also know that you really wanted to pay with your life just now."

"What about you?" A Wan grabbed Fang Zi Lan's hand, "Do you really want to wrongfully kill Master Zhuge?"

"If I say I don't want to, will anyone believe me?" Fang Zilan curled her lips in self-mockery. Awan held her hand a little harder, "I believe it, and Lord Zhuge believes it too."

"Awan, people's hearts are hidden in their stomachs. Never guarantee for others." Fang Zilan tried to pull her hand away, but Awan refused to let go. "I don't care. I believe whatever you say. As for whether others believe it or not, it has nothing to do with me."

"You..." Fang Zilan shook her head, "I'm really not a trustworthy person." "But you keep your word." Awan said firmly, "So, no matter what you say, I'm willing to believe it."

The old horse knew the way. It carried Fang Zilan, whose life was hanging by a thread, and ran back to the capital. He was stopped by the guards at the gate of the city. Before he could investigate carefully, he saw Xia Houzhang coming in a hurry, "Everyone, get out of the way!"

The guard did not dare to say anything and quickly got out of the way. He watched helplessly as Xia Houzhang took the bloody man off the horse, put him into the carriage, and then drove away in person.

All the guards were dumbfounded. No one in the capital knew that Xia Houzhang was the person next to Li Shengxuan. But for some reason, he suddenly came to guard the city gate in person three days ago, unshakable from morning to night, as if he was afraid of missing something.

Now it seems that what Xia Houzhang is waiting for is the bloody person just now. I wonder who he is that can make him so attracted to him? In other words, it was because Li Shengxuan was so interested.

However, curiosity is curiosity, and no one dares to inquire about anything at will because of their longevity, and they all quickly dispersed, as if nothing had happened.

Xia Houzhang drove into the palace and sent Fang Zilan into Fengyi Palace. Fang Ziqin was shocked to see her like this and took a few steps back, almost unable to stand still.

"Empress!" Qiu Shui supported Fang Ziqin and heard her voice tremble slightly, but it was full of power that could not be ignored, "Send the third lady in and call Wen Ya over quickly. Also, let's say something happened to Fengyi Palace. Assassin, the third lady blocked the knife for me, life or death is uncertain."

"Go quickly." Qiu Shui shouted to the maids in the palace, and they all bowed and retreated.

Xia Houzhang sent Fang Zilan in. Fang Ziqin looked at their backs and whispered to Qiu Shui: "I want you to send a message back to the Fang family, and you go there in person..."

"Yes." Qiu Shui nodded in agreement, but there was hesitation in his eyes.

"Don't worry, I can still hold on." Fang Ziqin gently patted the back of Qiu Shui's hand, telling her not to worry, "She can't die now, not even for the Fang family."

"Qiu Shui understands." Qiu Shui saluted solemnly. When he ran out, he happened to bump into Wen Ya who was coming. The two apologized to each other and left.

As soon as Wen Ya entered Fengyi Palace, he saw Fang Ziqin sitting upright on the Phoenix Throne, with a look that was the most stern he had ever seen.

"Greetings, Her Majesty the Queen..." Before Wen Ya could finish his greeting, Fang Ziqin interrupted him, "Mr. Wen, there's no need to be so polite. I summoned you here to save my little sister's life."

"I will do my best." Wen Ya bowed, and Fang Ziqin looked at him steadily, "I want more than just my best."

Wen Ya was stunned for a moment, and Fang Ziqin continued to talk to herself, "Whatever your master doesn't want, this palace wants. Her life is decided by this palace."

Wen Ya's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, "What do you mean, Queen?"

"Mr. Wen, there is no need to pretend to be confused in front of me." Fang Ziqin stood up, walked to Wen Ya, and said in a deep voice: "I know that Mr. Wen has always been a man who knows the current situation. Today, I might as well speak out. I know what Mr. Wen did in the past and what kind of person he is. If Mr. Wen can save my little sister's life, I promise to keep my mouth shut, and the Fang family will be grateful to him."
