Chapter 488 Fairness
"Master Yue, please stay." Zhuge Yu's voice came from behind Fang Zilan, she stopped and looked back, "What else is there for Master Zhuge?"

Zhuge Yu opened his mouth, but he didn't make any sound. Seeing this, Xu Youtong took Xie Yanping and the two young men with great eyes and quietly left. For a while, only Zhuge Yu and Fang Zilan were left in the hall.

Fang Zilan looked at Zhuge Yu steadfastly, and after a while, he heard him sigh and say, "Master Yue, do you really believe that Second Miss Fang is innocent?"

"As I said just now, it's difficult for a woman to stand up." Fang Zilan didn't show any expression on her face, but her eyes were extremely firm, "So every time there is a problem and I need to judge who is right and who is wrong, I will always have no regrets." There is no reason to choose to trust and support the woman first, and then to distinguish carefully after the truth is found out. Otherwise, it may be difficult for the woman to survive until the day when the truth is revealed."

"But what if you believe it wrong?" Zhuge Yu frowned slightly, "If Second Miss Fang is really the murderer, do you still want to cover her up? I know that Second Miss Fang is suffering at Pei's house, but the victim was not the murderer. Reason, if everyone in the world acts according to what is right or wrong in their own minds, what is the use of the law? Isn’t the world going to be chaotic?”

"Second Miss Fang appears domineering, but she is actually determined." Fang Zilan said word by word: "She will never commit murder just because of her own difficulties."

"But..." Zhuge Yu wanted to say something more, but Fang Zilan cut him off, "Since Second Miss Fang's sleeve arrow was not coated with poison, would Mr. Pei Poming, who bought the poison, be more suspicious? After all, Jing Zhao When Yin's house was searched, Second Miss Fang had been away from Pei's house for some time, anyone could hide poison in her dowry. Such tricks as framing the blame have been common for a long time."

Zhuge Yu pursed his lips, "If, as Lord Yue said, why didn't the Pei family clean up all the poisons from Lord Pei Poming, and put the whole case on Miss Fang, wouldn't it be better?"

"What does the Pei family think, how do I know?" Fang Zilan snorted coldly, "What's more, the investigation of the case should be handled by the Jingzhao Yin Mansion. What do you think, Mr. Zhuge?"

"Please rest assured, Lord Yue." Zhuge Yu cupped his hands and saluted, "I will definitely investigate this case to the bottom. No matter who the murderer is, I will make him pay the price."

Fang Zilan said noncommittally: "Since Mr. Zhuge said so, I will wait and see." After finishing speaking, he turned and left.

Zhuge Yu looked at her back with mixed emotions in his heart, but the ever-changing situation did not give him a chance to calm down.That day the Empress Dowager recovered from a serious illness, her first reaction was to put pressure on Li Shengxuan, and at the same time the Yushitai presented the Wanmin Letter, all the officials knelt outside the palace city, just to ask for the truth.

But no matter how the Jingzhao Yin House interrogated him, Pei Poming only admitted that he had purchased the poison, but he refused to admit that he killed Pei Gongqing by poisoning, and Fang Zitong couldn't communicate normally, so even if he was suspected, he couldn't interrogate him.

When the case was in a stalemate, someone proposed to first try the case of wounding with a modified bow and crossbow, but the person who made the first report at the camp in the suburbs of Beijing was nowhere to be found. Ouyang Zirou, who was finally found, was still alive and dead at the Duke of Yue's mansion. Fang Zilan refused to disclose the specific situation.

So the people in Jingzhao Yin's mansion had no choice but to poke their heads around Yue Guogong's mansion from time to time. Chu Bin dismissed wave after wave and reported Fang Zilan several times, but she just felt very annoyed.

"The people from Jingzhao Yin's Mansion are here again?" A Wan couldn't help asking Fang Zilan, who looked at Fang Zilan, who had an expression of keeping away from strangers.

Fang Zilan nodded perfunctorily, her eyes fell on the bloody discarded gauze in A Wan's hand, "How is Zi Rou?"

"It's still the same, nothing responds to what I say." A Wan said as he raised the discarded gauze in his hand, "If you are forced hard, you will slap your hands and hurt them again and again. If you continue like this, your hands will really hurt." Obsolete."

Hearing that Fang Zilan's face seemed to be covered with a layer of frost, she said in a deep voice: "Don't force Zirou, she will not respond if she doesn't respond, let's talk about recovering from the injury first."

"But..." Awan opened his mouth, and then changed his voice unwillingly, "Everyone from Jingzhao Yin's Mansion has come to the door, so can't we fight for justice for Lord Ouyang?"

"Fair." Fang Zilan repeated the word, and said sadly: "If you want to fight for justice for Zirou, the Ouyang family must confess. Among them are her brother, mother, and even other relatives we don't know. You have to pay the price. Therefore, if she doesn't speak up in person, no one else can make a decision for her, whether to fight for this fairness."

Awan's expression froze, she was thinking that Ouyang Zirou had suffered a great wrong, and the world should know about it, and the person who hurt her should pay the price.But she forgot that the people who caused her to fall into such a situation were all her close relatives connected by blood.Once it is brought to court, I am afraid it will be more painful than breaking his hand.

"Then if Master Ouyang has been keeping silent like this, could it be..." Before A Wan finished speaking, Xiao Xuan'er who came hurriedly interrupted, "Master Fang, something happened to Ouyang's family."

Fang Zilan looked solemn, "What happened to Ouyang's family?"

"Patriarch Ouyang may die." Xiao Xuan'er said in a low voice: "Mrs. Ouyang ordered someone to invite the elders in charge of the clan, and put Ouyang Zongrui under custody, saying that she wanted to open the ancestral hall and move the family law."

"It seems that Mrs. Ouyang won't shield Ouyang Zongrui anymore." Fang Zilan said thoughtfully, "It's just that she still cares about the dignity of Ouyang's family, and she doesn't want to hand over Ouyang Zongrui for disposal."

"However..." Xiao Xuan'er just opened her mouth, when she saw Qiao Nian supporting Ouyang Zirou to the corridor, she couldn't help but exclaimed, "Lord Ouyang!"

Fang Zilan saw the two men coming, hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Something happened to Ouyang's house, do you want to go back and have a look?"

Ouyang Zirou's eyes turned red, but she still didn't say a word. On the contrary, Wang Lingyuan, who ran quickly, panted and said, "Master Fang, I heard that something happened to Ouyang's family, I..."

"Okay, let's go." Fang Zilan patted Wang Lingyuan's back lightly, comforting her.

Feeling the temperature from her back, Wang Lingyuan felt relieved. She looked gratefully at Fang Zilan, who gave her a firm look.

In fact, since she was rescued to the Duke's Mansion of the Yue State, she discovered that Fang Zilan was not as ruthless as the outside legends said. Under the appearance of killing and decisiveness, there was a heart of compassion hidden.

So when she was worried and didn't want to go back to Ouyang's house, Fang Zilan didn't force her to go back.But today, when Ouyang Zirou was uneasy and she was in panic, Fang Zilan's determination and company were their best reassurance.

No matter what is waiting for them in front of them, as long as Fang Zilan stands behind them, they will always have a burst of courage.

 The world is hard, justice is hard to find
