Don't Ask Where People Go After Time Travel

Chapter 402 Hard Stubble
"Isn't the national treasury approving money according to regulations?" Mo Han asked, and the person who answered him was Zheng Yan, "It is according to regulations."

A few short words, but Mo Han had the answer in his heart - false report and greedy ink.

The aristocratic family can ask the court for a large sum of money every year on the grounds of supporting the family and generals.As time goes on, the tide rises and the boat rises, and it has become a tacit secret of the aristocratic family.After all, no one thinks money is hot.

He knew Fang Zilan's temperament very well, and he never saw how much money was approved by the treasury, and directly handed over full authority to Zheng Yan.Fortunately, Zheng Yan has a good character, otherwise, Fang Zilan would not know if he embezzled the extra money.

Xiao Xuan'er quickly finished reconciling the account, "Master Fang, it's all right, there's no problem."

"In this case, then use the extra money." Fang Zilan said, looking at Zheng Yan, "If there is a shortage of money in the Fubing, just come and tell me."

"Okay." Zheng Yan agreed, and left after seeing that there was nothing to do.

"Miss Xiao, I want you to help me find out something." Fang Zilan told Xiao Xuan'er what Cong Rong said to her just now, she nodded slightly, "Master Fang, don't worry, I will find out as soon as possible."

"Please trouble Miss Xiao." Fang Zilan said with a stern expression, "But I don't think it's that simple. It's not that I underestimate that lady, it's just that it's really difficult for an ordinary woman to escape from her husband's house on her own. I think there should be family members behind her." Help."

"Whether it can be done or not, we still have to check it first." Mo Han comforted, Fang Zilan nodded, "This is the only way to go now."

"Lord Fang, the Persian Mission will arrive in Beijing in the next day, and the Di Rong Mission will also arrive in Beijing in five days." Xiao Xuan'er reminded: "At this juncture, our family must not make any mistakes."

"I see." Fang Zilan breathed a sigh of relief, "Miss Xiao, you don't have to worry about me, just check it yourself. It's not a big deal, I can still handle it."

After she finished speaking, she didn't stay any longer, and went back to the room with a heavy heart.A little later, Awan came to deliver medicine to her, and when he talked about the bruises on Bai Xiuniang's body, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Sister Bai has suffered a lot." A Wan said with righteous indignation: "There are so many injuries on her body, I think the family beat her a lot."

Fang Zilan remained silent, and A Wan tugged at her sleeve, "Fang Zilan, we must rescue Sister Bai!"

"You." Fang Zilan nodded her forehead resignedly, and finally agreed to make her feel at ease.

However, Fang Zilan slept very restlessly that night, and there was always a bad premonition in her heart that lingered.

Sure enough, the next day when the sky was bright, Cao Hong knocked on the door of the Duke of Yue's mansion, looking anxious but as if he had done something wrong.

When Fang Zilan heard the news, she put on an outer shirt indiscriminately, wrapped her cloak and went to the front hall. Before she could sit down, she asked, "What's wrong?"

"Boss, I..." Cao Hong drooped his head and said after a while, "I may have done something wrong."

Fang Zilan yawned, took the tea that Xiao Xuaner handed over, drank half of it and sobered up for a while, then said: "What did you do?"

"I..." Deputy General Cao sighed, and then said: "Last night, Master Zhu sent someone to Miss Bai's house to ask for someone. Miss Bai's brother couldn't hand him over, so he started arguing with Master Zhu's people. Master Zhu The people said that if they don't see anyone after three days, they will report to the police. I went to Mr. Zhu's house and beat him, but he told Miss Bai's family overnight that he didn't want Miss Bai..."

He finished speaking in one breath, and secretly glanced at Fang Zilan, who had no expression on his face, "How did you hit that Master Zhu? Did you do it?"

"I didn't have time to do it." Cao Hong hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I just frightened him a bit, who knows..." He rubbed the back of his head, but didn't continue.

"It's better if you don't do anything." Fang Zilan snorted coldly, "It's nothing to frighten this kind of person who is afraid of power but not morality. It just so happens that he doesn't want Miss Bai. If it's cheaper, we can talk to Miss Bai's family."

"Boss..." Cao Hong hesitated and said, "Miss Bai and her elder brother are tough, and her subordinates are also somewhat powerful, so they can be called by name in the army. If Master Zhu doesn't want Miss Bai, I'm afraid he won't be kind."

Fang Zilan took a sip of tea, "Are you afraid that he won't be nice to me?"

Cao Hong nodded his head, "If this matter becomes serious, Miss Bai..."

"Lord Fang!" Zheng Yan came in a hurry, with a rare solemn expression on his face, "Miss Bai's family went to Jingzhao Yin's mansion to play drums, and said they would sue our Yue State mansion."

"So fast?" Xiao Xuan'er's face changed, and Fang Zilan said in a low voice, "I don't leave any leeway, it's really a hard stubble."

"Boss, what should we do now?" Cao Hong panicked. He is good at fighting, but he is a layman when it comes to lawsuits.

"Old Cao, go and invite Miss Bai's brother to come here for me." Fang Zilan said coldly, "If he doesn't want to go to court, you can just tie him up."

Cao Hong was stunned for a moment, only to hear Fang Zilan say: "If he plays rough in front of me, he might be too young. Zheng Yan, you take the government soldiers and go with Lao Cao."

"Yes." Zheng Yan took the order to go, and Cao Hong hurriedly followed, "Brother Zheng, wait for me!"

Looking at the backs of the two, Fang Zilan breathed a sigh of relief, and said to Xiao Xuan'er: "I'll wash up first, and then come back after changing clothes. If they come back, let them wait in the front hall for a while."

After she finished speaking, she got up and went back to the room, after packing up, she went to the front hall again, only to see Cao Hong and Zheng Yan escorting a man in the hall, needless to say, it was Bai Xiuniang's elder brother.

The man's complexion was not good, and he said fiercely: "Master Fang's way of inviting people is really different."

Fang Zilan glanced at him, and signaled Cao Hong and Zheng Yan to let him go, "You are Bai Xiuniang's brother? What's your name?"

The man spat, and said: "That's right, I will change my name and surname if I can do it, so does Bai Chu."

Fang Zilan hummed casually, and said straight to the point: "You can make an offer, I want Bai Xiuniang."

"What?" Bai Chu was obviously stunned, and after a while he said, "It's easy to say. I don't know which family is interested in my sister?"

"Are you deaf?" Fang Zilan said coldly, "I'll say it one last time, I want Bai Xiuniang."

"No..." Bai Chu looked incomprehensible, and frowned, "Master Fang, you are a woman, what do you want my sister for?"

"Just ask the price." Fang Zilan was too lazy to entangle with Bai Chu, but unexpectedly he shook his head and said, "That's not okay. My sister is going to be sold to be a concubine, so what's the point of selling you a woman?"

Fang Zilan laughed angrily at him, "You just take the money, and you don't care if the other party is a man or a woman?"

"That's natural." Bai Chu said as it should be: "My sister is a widow, so I can only sell it. But even if I sell it, I can only sell it to a man. Even if you are the Duke of Yue, so what? A woman, meddling what?"

　Fang Zilan: Bai Xiuniang's brother really shocked me...
