Don't Ask Where People Go After Time Travel

Chapter 1604 Escape
"Young General Dugu really arrived just in time." Fang Zilan looked frightened and patted her chest with her hand, "If you were a little later, you would have come to collect my body."

"Mrs. Shizi is good at planning." Dugu Ming's expression darkened a bit, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth. "If I don't come today, what will happen to Mrs. Shizi?"

Fang Zilan met Dugu Ming's gaze, smiled slightly and said, "As long as you are Dugu Ming, you will definitely come."

Dugu Ming clenched his fists, took a few steps forward, and walked up to Fang Zilan.

Meng Tingyang held his sword to protect Fang Zilan, but his hands couldn't stop shaking, "What is General Dugu going to do?"

Dugu Ming did not speak, but Fang Zilan said: "Little General Dugu means no harm. General Meng, please let him come."

Hearing this, Meng Tingyang hesitated for a moment, then withdrew his sword and stepped aside.

Dugu Ming took another step forward and stretched out his hand towards Fang Zilan, "How long do you plan to sit on the ground, Madam Prince?"

"Thank you." Fang Zilan stretched out her hand, letting Dugu Ming hold her wrist and help her up.

Several people in the hall who moved after hearing the sound saw this scene as soon as they came out.

Zhuge Yu coughed lightly and asked, "How is Mrs. Shizi's injury?" He said and walked to Fang Zilan's side, as if to check her injury, but in fact he forced Dugu Ming to take back his hand.

"My injuries are not serious." Fang Zilan shook her head and staggered back two steps, avoiding Zhuge Yu and Dugu Ming. "Fortunately, General Meng is brave and Little General Dugu came quickly..."

Before she finished speaking, she saw Dugu Ming turning sideways and waving his hands impatiently to his men, indicating that they could withdraw their troops without paying the price.

"Mrs. Crown Prince, I didn't come here to listen to you talk about these scenes." Dugu Ming waited for Fang Zilan to finish speaking, and then he spoke politely, "If you know anything, if you are willing to tell me, the Dugu family will treat you as a friend."

"Little General Dugu, I do know something, and I am willing to tell you." Fang Zilan looked at Dugu Ming steadily and said word by word: "But not now."

Dugu Ming gritted his teeth, "When was that?"

"I want to see Fu Congnan." Fang Zilan did not directly answer Dugu Ming's question, but changed the subject, "General Dugu, don't you want to know why Fu Congnan insisted on not getting a divorce? I will help you find the answer."

Dugu Ming was hesitant and looked at Fang Zilan for a while, then he said, "I hope the Crown Prince's wife will not disappoint me."

"Is Young General Dugu disappointed today?" Fang Zilan curled his lips, and Dugu Ming raised his head and said, "If we catch him alive, what can we find out..."

The smile on Fang Zilan's face grew brighter. Dugu Ming's young mind was really not frank, but she did not expose him. She just said: "It's better not to disappoint little General Dugu."

"Mrs. Your Majesty's hard work." Dugu Ming left these words a little stiffly and left with his men.

Zhuge Yu's eyes wandered back and forth between Fang Zilan and Dugu Ming, "Has Madam Prince met General Dugu in private?" He did not deliberately lower his voice, so almost everyone in the court could hear him clearly.

Fang Zilan looked calm, but Dugu Ming paused. Last night...

"Major General?" His men called out tentatively. Dugu Ming clenched his fist and left in a hurry. Zhuge Yu smiled in his heart. Dugu Ming's reaction was enough to prove that he guessed right, so today's reinforcements were inevitable. Fang Zilan took advantage of the situation and did a favor to the Fu family and even Mrs. Fu. She had to repay it emotionally and rationally.

As for how and what to pay back, I'm afraid Fang Zilan has already made plans...

Zhuge Yu looked at Fang Zilan's straight figure and secretly sighed when did she become so determined, and when did she become so cunning that she could hide all the strategies in her mind without revealing them?
"Thank you so much for your help today, Madam Prince, and Mr. Zhuge." Mr. Fu bowed tremblingly, "If it weren't for you two, I'm afraid the entire Fu family would not have escaped disaster. I would like to express my deep gratitude to you two for your great kindness."

"Master Fu is serious." Zhuge Yu held Master Fu's arm, "Today it was me and the Crown Prince's wife who caused trouble for the family."

"Although it caused trouble, being able to solve the trouble is also a skill." Madam Fu's expression was cold, and her eyes fell on Fang Zilan, "Today, the wife of the prince really made me look at her in a new light."

"Your Highness, is there anything bothering you?" Fang Zilan said as she walked to the palace wall and stood opposite Li Qiyou. "If Your Highness is willing, you may as well tell me and ask if it bothers me or not."

Hearing this, Li Qiyou couldn't help but curl his lips, "Miss Fang San, are you going to be my confidant?"

"As long as the prince speaks." Fang Zilan also raised the corners of her lips and revealed a bright smile, which instantly alleviated Li Qiyou's uneasiness and made him look relieved.

Seeing Li Qiyou staring at her intently, Fang Zilan's smile faded a little. She lowered her eyes and asked, "Why are you staring at me like this, Your Majesty? Is there something on my face?"

"No." Li Qiyou denied it, but found that there were some things he didn't dare to admit. For example, now, as long as he saw Fang Zilan standing in front of him, he would be satisfied.

It seemed that no matter what happened, it could not compare to the smile of the person in front of him, which could make him truly sink into it and be unable to extricate himself.

"Then what does the prince mean?" Fang Zilan asked. Li Qiyou did not answer, and she did not urge him.

The two men stood under the palace wall, their shadows lengthened by the setting sun.

An unknown amount of time had passed, until the sky gradually darkened and the two people's shadows blurred together. Fang Zilan did not hear Li Qiyou's answer, but instead heard him say, "It's getting late, I'll take you back to Fengyi Palace."

"No need." Fang Zilan refused bluntly. After all, she and Li Qiyou, one was the innocent daughter of the prime minister, and the other was a prince with a complete family, so there should be no involvement between them.

One should not put on shoes in a melon field, nor should one adjust his hat under a plum tree. The mere words "avoid suspicion" made the two people strangers, and they should never have any contact with each other.

However, for some reason, Li Qiyou was unexpectedly stubborn. "Miss Fang San is weak. I need to personally send you back to Fengyi Palace and hand you over to the Queen, so that I can feel at ease. Otherwise, if something happens, I will never forgive myself in this life."

After hearing what he said, Fang Zilan had to bite the bullet and agree to it, even though she was unwilling to do so. She had to know that she couldn't bear his guilt.

On the way back to Fengyi Palace, Fang Zilan rarely spoke, and so did Li Qiyou. Both of them looked restrained and distant.

It was not until they entered Fengyi Palace that Fang Ziqin raised her eyebrows when she saw Li Qiyou, "Your Highness Prince Yucheng, what is this..."

"It was getting late, and I saw Miss Fang San was alone outside. I was afraid that she might get into an accident, so I sent her back." Li Qiyou explained appropriately, but in Fang Ziqin's eyes it seemed to make the matter worse. Fortunately, she did not pursue it, but her eyes roamed back and forth between the two of them, with a profound meaning that could not be concealed.
