Don't Ask Where People Go After Time Travel

Chapter 1621: Biased
"You don't look good at all when you kill people." Fang Zilan looked down at Wuhuan's body. She didn't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, but the fatal wounds on Wuhuan's body were not neat and tidy. The person who did it seemed like a novice who seldom killed people.

"I..." Li Shengxuan opened his mouth, but could not say anything. After a long while, he whispered, "I asked Wuhuan, but he refused to say anything."

"Normal." Fang Zilan stretched out her hand and gently closed Wuhuan's eyes. "The killers of Guimen will only take secrets into the coffin."

After she finished speaking, she stood up and looked at Xiahou Zhang instead of Li Shengxuan. "You are seriously injured. You should take good care of yourself."

"You don't want to ask Ah Shi..." Xiahou Zhangfu opened his mouth, but was interrupted by Fang Zilan, "You failed to bring Ah Shi back, what else can I ask?"

Her expression turned a little colder as she spoke, "I never like to pursue the process of failure."

Xiahou Zhang moved his lips, but saw Fang Zilan left without looking back. Soon Awan hurried over, followed by the waiters of Zuiyue Tower.

Mingxiang leaned on the railing in the corner upstairs, watching the scene quietly. Fang Zilan's voice came from behind, "Do you know Wuhuan?"

"Yes, he is the first disciple accepted by the Imperial Physician Wen Ya." Mingxiang turned her head and saw Fang Zilan sitting not far from her, drinking medicine slowly. "I heard from Wen Ya that Wuhuan is quite talented in practicing medicine, but he has an unconventional approach and his relationship with him as a master and disciple is shallow."

"Taking an unconventional approach? Mr. Wen actually said that?" Mingxiang laughed dumbly. Fang Zilan put down the medicine bowl in her hand, "Do you also think Mr. Wen's words are weird?"

"If we talk about taking an unconventional approach, Mr. Wen's master, the Medicine God Xu, is the best in the world." Mingxiang said calmly, "In order to protect Wanhua Villa, Pharmacist Xu refined many medicine dolls. Mr. Wen, who inherited his legacy, is even better than him."

She paused, her face showing a cold expression, "Master, you know better than me what Mr. Wen has done in these years since he entered the Ghost Gate. How could such a man break off the relationship between master and disciple just because Wuhuanjian took an unconventional approach?"

"Even you think there's something else going on, let alone me?" Fang Zilan shook her head. "It's a pity that Wuhuan is dead. Only Mr. Wen knows the truth."

Mingxiang didn't say anything and turned her head to look downstairs again. Xiahou Zhang had been sent away by the waiters of Zuiyue Tower. Only Awan and Li Shengxuan were there, talking about something in front of Wuhuan's corpse.

Awan seemed very emotional and was about to have a big fight. Li Shengxuan, who was standing opposite her, lowered his head and said nothing, allowing her to criticize him.

Madam Chen rolled her eyes. "Why do I feel like Madam Ouyang is hinting at something?"

"There's no hidden meaning in what you said." The woman sitting to the left of Madam Chen said, "Madam Ouyang's daughter is very ambitious. I heard that His Majesty promised her an official position. I'm afraid she won't lose to Lord Fang in the future."

"Oh, you are talking about Miss Ouyang Zirou, right?" Madam Chen covered her face and chuckled, "I never thought that she could get an official position by hanging out with craftsmen every day. She is really amazing."

"But if Miss Ouyang wants to be compared with Lord Fang, I'm afraid she is still far behind..." The woman sitting opposite them just opened her mouth when she was interrupted by Madam Chen, "What do you mean by far behind? You don't know, Miss Ouyang is very capable and has already hooked up with Lord Fang. It's hard to say whether she will step on Lord Fang to move up in the future."

Madam Ouyang was about to lose her smile. "Madam Chen really flatters my daughter too much. She usually likes to make some small things, but they are not presentable. How can they be compared with Lord Fang? I am scared just by hearing it. You'd better stop talking." "What is Madam Ouyang afraid of?" The woman opposite smiled and said, "Everyone knows that the next head of the Ouyang family must be your son. Now even your daughter will be promoted to an official position. With such a pair of children, we are afraid that we can't even envy them in our dreams."

Madam Ouyang was embarrassed by what everyone said, but Ouyang Zirou, who was sitting in the lower seat, ate and drank without noticing anything, until Fang Zitong beside her pushed her and said, "Everyone is trying to take the blame on you, and you can still eat?"

"What fire?" Ouyang Zirou looked confused, then said indifferently: "With my mother here, even if there is a fire, it can't burn me."

Fang Zitong glanced at Madam Ouyang's pale face and shook her head helplessly.

Ouyang Zirou pushed a piece of pastry in front of Fang Zitong and said, "Try this. I think it was probably made by the chef from Sufangzhai."

"You've always been particular about food and drink, so you're definitely not wrong." Fang Zitong picked up a piece and sighed, "Zirou, when will you be more careful?"

"What snack?" Ouyang Zirou hadn't swallowed the food in her mouth yet. Her cheeks were puffy like a little hamster, making her cheeks look even rounder.

Fang Zitong blocked the view of the people beside her and reminded them in a low voice: "Talk after you finish eating."

Ouyang Zirou half covered her face with a silk handkerchief, quickly swallowed what was in her mouth, then picked up the teacup that Fang Zitong handed to her and took a sip.

The woman sitting on the other side of Ouyang Zirou couldn't help but ask, "Zirou, I heard that you are going to have an official position. Is this true?"

"What official position?" Ouyang Zirou waved her hand. "Don't talk nonsense if it's not even a clue."

Fang Zilan, who was not far away, saw everything they said and did, and thought that Ouyang Zirou was really good at fooling people by saying she knew nothing about anything.

No wonder she felt a subtle sense of disharmony when she first met Ouyang Zirou. She was a well-mannered daughter of a noble family, but she looked careless and heartless. Now it seems that Ouyang Zirou is clear in her mind, so it is no wonder that she is in a relationship with Fang Zitong, a domineering and straightforward person.

"Why are you talking nonsense?" Madam Chen listened to it with a sharp mind and immediately started talking again, "Your Majesty's words are golden, can you treat them as a joke?"

"Of course not." Fang Zilan walked to the main seat and sat down, looking at Madam Chen and said, "But I want to ask Madam Chen, when did you hear His Majesty say that he would grant Zirou an official position? Was there an explicit decree or oral order?"

"This..." Madam Chen laughed dryly. Before she could say anything, Fang Zilan said, "Madam Chen's reaction seems to indicate that there is no clear order or oral instructions. No wonder I don't know anything about it."

"Sir Fang..." Madam Chen was about to speak, but was interrupted by Fang Zilan again, "Madam Chen, as an official appointed by the court, I would like to kindly remind you. Fabricating the words of His Majesty out of thin air is at best just gossip after dinner, and at worst it is misrepresenting the emperor's will with ulterior motives. If you are not careful, you may be charged with some crime."
