Don't Ask Where People Go After Time Travel

Chapter 495
"Master Prime Minister, is there evidence for what you said?" Fang Zilan asked dumbly, and Fang Chongzheng said quietly: "The jade pendant on your body, and the word Lan on it, were carved by Mrs. Qin Ji herself."

Fang Zilan slowly closed her eyes. The answer she guessed seemed to be verified, but she didn't feel at ease. Instead, she seemed to have broken into a bigger puzzle.

After a long time, she opened her eyes, looked fixedly at Fang Chongzheng, and asked, "The prime minister just said that I am the only orphan of the royal family. Isn't it the king of Yuning, Ji Ningtian?"

Fang Chongzheng secretly sighed at her keenness, but in just a short moment, he realized it.He didn't intend to hide anything, and simply said directly: "Did you never suspect the last play of the leader of the Qingchao troupe, Huanyan, after hearing it?"

Fang Zilan suddenly realized, "You are the one who sent away the rest of the Qingchao class..."

"Yes." Fang Chongzheng nodded and said, "If it wasn't for that, with King Yuning's temper, none of them would have survived."

"But..." Fang Zilan was full of doubts, but she didn't know where to ask.Even though Fang Chongzheng and Ji Ningtian are not standing together, they should not be opposing parties, but Fang Chongzheng secretly hides the traces of the other members of the Qingchao Squad...

As if seeing her doubts, Fang Chongzheng said eloquently: "Everything starts from the previous dynasty. In the last years of the Great Chu, a prince came out of the royal family who calmed down the Quartet, which is what later generations said General Zhenbei and King Pingnan. It was because of his appearance that Dachu, like a candle in the wind, only burned for a few more years."

As he spoke, there was a look of nostalgia in his eyes, but it faded after a moment, "However, as his military achievements became more prominent, the emperor became more and more afraid. His achievements are so great, not to mention the many heroes around him." , all regard him as the master, and listen to his orders alone. Over time, the emperor has the heart to eradicate him."

When the voice fell, there was a barely audible sigh, which made Fang Zilan a little dazed, and she almost thought she had heard it wrong.After all, the person in front of him is the prime minister of the four emperors of the past and present. He is used to seeing the wind and rain as dark as ever, and has always stood firm like a mountain. How could he lament like this?
"It's not that he doesn't know the emperor's suspicion, it's just that the four realms are only superficially stable. If he wants to relinquish his military power to suppress his subordinates, the covetous foreign tribes will make a comeback." Fang Chongzheng lowered his voice a little, "Xu knew that he was doomed, so he decided to With his temper, he killed and made decisions, and even married Mrs. Qin Ji regardless, just to have a clear conscience. But no one thought that that day would come so soon."

"I heard that he was buried in the deep sea. Is it true?" Fang Zilan's voice trembled slightly. She didn't dare to call the former God of War that the world said—maybe her biological father's name, as if everything could be done like this. Just like before, when she didn't know anything.

"The person the emperor sent to kill him was indeed seen in Yuedi. He was killed by General Xia Yunzhao, and his body was thrown into the sea without a trace." Fang Chongzheng shook his head, "After all, no one would believe that General Xia Yunzhao would let him go." over one's 'mortal enemy'."

"General Xia Yunzhao saved him?" Fang Zilan frowned involuntarily, and Fang Chongzheng said helplessly, "Compared to saving him, it's more appropriate to call it a deal."

"What do you mean?" Fang Zilan asked subconsciously, and Fang Chongzheng said in a low voice: "The affair between Xia Yunzhao, the general of Baiyue, and Xie Chen, the famous minister, is well known in the world. The monarch of Baiyue is no less afraid of Xia's army than the The Great Chu Emperor treated him, so the two sides have been fighting for many years, always retreating and advancing, no one is asking for a half point, and no one dares to slack off in the slightest, maintaining a delicate balance."

Fang Zilan suddenly understood, "The birds are gone, the good bow is hidden. General Xia Yunzhao is afraid that one day she will be like..."

She didn't continue, Fang Chongzheng said: "Besides this, there are other reasons. You have guarded the northern border, so you should know what it was like when the barbarians invaded before. At that time, Persia and other countries in the Western Regions were silent. When the barbarians were at their most powerful, they swept across most of the territory, and even formed an alliance with Miluo, vowing to rule the Great Chu and Baiyue."

"I heard from Qi Yuming that at that time the northern border was covered with blood and scorched earth, and there were few people alive." Fang Zilan's voice was low, and Fang Chongzheng said with emotion: "The Qi family..."

"Master Prime Minister recognizes the Qi family?" Fang Zilan was stunned, and Fang Chongzheng had a wry smile on his lips, "It's more than just recognition?"

He paused, took a sip of the teacup in hand, and then continued: "When the news spread that he was buried in Yuedi, the barbarians in the north couldn't wait to invade Yanzhou City. Not only that, but also inside the Great Chu The turmoil continued. On the way he quietly led his subordinates to the northern border, he left behind a few people to suppress the chaos. Not only Xu Yaoshi and others, but even Qin Yu, who was closest to him, were sent to the capital by him. In the end, he accompanied him. Apart from Mrs. Qin Ji, the only one who came to Yanzhou City was Chu Xiang."

Chu Xiang?When Fang Zilan heard this name, he felt a shock.

"Later, in the name of the Qi family, he tried his best to turn the tide and ensure the stability of the northern border. Otherwise, the Li family would not sit in the capital." Fang Chongzheng said lightly, but Fang Zilan could not be calm for a long time.

"At first, I thought that he could hide his name in the northern border and live leisurely, but he never thought about the secret that he was still alive. He was finally discovered by the ghost gate." , seduced Qin Yu, and conceived a son, who is now King Yucheng. In Wenrou Township, Qin Yu revealed the news that he was still alive. After the situation stabilized, there will be a steady stream of ghost killers flocking to the north .”

"So, I was born in the northern border, and he died in the northern border?" Fang Zilan's eyes were red, Fang Chongzheng was silent for a while, and then said: "After he passed away, Mrs. Qin Ji was distraught. I am pregnant. I also have friendship with the couple, and after receiving the news, I arranged for Mrs. Qin Ji to come to Beijing."

"The prime minister knows the details, how can you say that you have a relationship?" Fang Zilan bit her lip, stared at Fang Chongzheng closely and said: "She heard that you arranged to enter the capital, but you didn't protect her well."

Fang Chongzheng looked at the man in front of him who was gnashing his teeth and suppressing his emotions, and swallowed all the words on his lips—if Li Shengxuan in Baiye Temple hadn't fallen in love at first sight, and she hadn't married, she wouldn't have provoked the former concubine Shu to be murderous, and at all costs, He must kill Mrs. Qin Ji and force her to be engaged to Ji Ningtian...

He couldn't say these words.

Looking at the delicate girl who was repeatedly told not to use swords and swords, who has grown into the Duke of Yue who is now wearing a strong and persistent guard to protect the country, he suddenly felt that the years had been too harsh on her.

She lost her freedom like a mountain wind, and was imprisoned under such a grand plan and ambition of Shanhe Yonggu. She took on the unfinished business of the predecessors with her own strength, which is worthy of awe no matter what.

But if she had to know that the cause of all this was just unkind hatred, personal affair and greed, would she still be like this now?

　The past is like smoke, Fang Zilan: I never expected that I would be the only orphan from the former dynasty?
