Chapter 688
"It doesn't have to be the highest bid." Li Shengxuan interjected: "If the news is only related to Yin Quanzhang, or the news that he is thinking about, others will not be able to bid, and the price he bid will naturally not be too high, so there is no need to worry about it. .”

"Although what you said is reasonable, I'm afraid it's not feasible." Fang Zilan said quietly: "Since I promised Fang Lihui to use the news of Qianjinfang as the grand finale of the Fang Family Spring Festival, I can't discredit him and the Fang family."

"Master Fang underestimated Fu Que." Fang Lihui laughed self-deprecatingly, "Fu Que soon discovered that all this was done by me, and also discovered my dark business with the state government, so she pretended to be obedient on the surface. Shun, but secretly colluded with other sisters to plan the fire."

He spoke in a lower voice, "I didn't know what happened until after the fire happened. Fu Que left two letters, one was handed over to the government to surrender, and the other was handed over to me."

Fang Zilan bit her lips lightly and asked, "What was written in the letter?"

"All the plans." Fang Lihui's voice was very soft, but Fang Zilan still heard it.

"The guests invited by all the boats on the river that day were arranged in advance by Fu Que and her sisters. Those people bullied others for the sake of being rich and unkind, and more or less killed them. As for the accompanying boatmen and kabuki, they were also well prepared. They all bear hatred and are unwilling to be oppressed, and would rather die together with a fire."

"I was originally one of the guests that day. But in the end, Fu Que couldn't make up her mind and asked someone to send me away. She said in the letter that even if it was false, I was still her comfort and let her live for a while. Days. In these days, she saw clearly the filth and filth of the human heart, it would be better to burn it clean."

Fang Zilan's hand holding the teacup suddenly tightened. How much bullying Fu Que and the others must have suffered and how determined they were to resist with their lives like this.

On the side, Ah Shi stared at Fang Zilan who was covered with chills, and suddenly felt lucky to survive the catastrophe.If he hadn't met her, his despair would probably not have been less than that of Fu Que.

As if the breath he had held for many years suddenly dissipated, Fang Lihui's figure was unsteady, he picked up the teacup and drank it down in one gulp, calmed down and looked at Ah Shi, "There were few people to live back then, and the matter of Qianyan Pavilion was a big deal. It's an old person around me, and I don't know much about it. Ah yes, I'm curious, who are you?"

"You planned to enter Fang's house..." Fang Lihui took a breath, "Are you doing it for revenge?"

"Premeditated? Revenge?" Ah Shi chuckled. There was sadness and helplessness in that smile, which should never have appeared on the face of a young man of his age. "If I hadn't found out about Qianyan Pavilion, I had some vague impressions. I asked my mother carefully, I am afraid that I will never remember these things until I die. Mr. Fang is unwilling to mention that fire case, let alone those who witnessed it."

He said in a deep voice, "As for revenge, even if I bring up the old case again, Mr. Fang can still stay out of it, and there is no evidence to identify you."

"Then why do you want to investigate?" Fang Lihui couldn't help asking, Ah Shi said quietly: "My purpose was made very clear to Mr. Fang from the beginning. I want to know how Wanhualou survived alone in the fireworks and willow alley."

Fang Zilan couldn't help being startled, she just mentioned it casually, but she never thought that Ah Shi would take it to heart.Did he enter Fang's house just for Wanhualou?

"Is resentment useful?" Ah Shi lowered his head, his voice was very soft, "The man has passed away, not to mention the fire case was not the fault of Mr. Fang alone. If you talk about resentment, it is better to resent the injustice of the world."

"Is the world unfair?" Fang Zilan repeated these words in a murmur, with mixed feelings in her heart.

"Lord Fang, don't worry about me." Ah Shi forced the corners of his lips into a smile, "If the world is unfair, I will fight against it in my own way."

His voice was more decisive, and his eyes turned to Fang Lihui, "I will be willing to be a dog in the future, I wonder if Mr. Fang is willing to keep me?"

Although these words were spoken humbly, the tone of the speaker was calm and calm, and on the contrary, there was an aura of certainty.

Fang Lihui looked at Ah Shi in front of him firmly, and he realized that he had no reason to refuse.On the one hand, Ah Shi knows too much, and he can't feel at ease if he doesn't stay by his side;

"If you want to stay, you can stay." Fang Lihui raised his hand and spread out his folding fan, returning to his usual cynical look.

Looking at the scene in front of her, Fang Zilan suddenly felt that Ah Shi was drifting away from her.Perhaps not only Ah Shi, but also many people, such as Mo Han.

Suddenly, she regretted pushing Mo Han to Li Shengxuan.But she knew that even if she didn't do this, Mo Han couldn't stay out of it.Just why, she felt powerless?

A Wan was dumbfounded when he heard this, and dared not answer: "When I was in the capital, I saw that the Gongqing family did not spend so much. This Mr. Yin is just the prefect of Suzhou. In terms of background, he is far inferior to the Beijing Zhong Gongqing family. How can he be so rich?"

"Three years as a state official, one hundred thousand snowflakes and silver." Fang Zilan snorted coldly, "It's hard to say whether Yin Quanzhang's financial resources are comparable to those of the Gongqing family, but at least they are comparable to the frugal His Majesty in Qiankun Palace."

Li Shengxuan, who was suddenly mentioned, couldn't help coughing, "Your Majesty joined the army when he was young, and he was strictly controlled by General Xiahou. He has always been used to frugality. But when it comes to financial resources, His Majesty, as the master of the world, no one can compare to him .”

"Really?" Fang Zilan looked at Li Shengxuan with a half-smile, "Such a tattered purse should be treasured. This kind of frugality is indeed unmatched by others."

"Purse?" A Wan was full of suspicion, looking back and forth between Fang Zilan and Li Shengxuan, wondering if there was a follow-up to the purse on the mountain?

Seeing this, Mingxiang asked puzzledly: "Miss Awan, why are you looking at Master like this?"

"It's nothing, I'm just curious, what kind of purse His Majesty uses." A Wan hurriedly waved her hand, and changed the subject, "What did you just say, Mr. Yin is rich..."

Fang Zilan raised her eyebrows helplessly, and A Wan said with a sneer: "You guys continue to talk..."

"It's one thing for Yin Quanzhang to be rich, but it's another for Yin Quanzhang to be willing to reveal his wealth." Fang Zilan was a little serious, "If he buys the Qianjinfang with a lot of money at the Fang Family Spring Festival, it will be tantamount to telling the world that he is rich , and there is a lot of money from unknown sources. Unless he is tired of working, why should he expose his crimes?"

"That's right, it's said that the money is not revealed, let alone the money of unknown origin." A Wan nodded, and echoed: "Master Yin will definitely not leave such a big deal waiting for someone to catch him."
