Don't ask where people go

Chapter 39 Replacement
After finally sending away the little treasure of Awan, Fang Zilan went to the stable to find Vice General Cao, and as expected, he saw Vice General Cao who was leaning against the side of the stable and sleeping soundly.

She stretched out her hand and pushed Vice General Cao, but he still didn't respond, snoring like thunder and still pursing his lips.

Fang Zilan had no choice but to take the horsewhip on the side, and slammed down on his head and face.

She didn't make much effort, but it still made Vice General Cao wake up suddenly. He stood up scrambling and swearing, "Which bastard dares to hit me?"

"It's my bastard thing." Fang Zilan shook the whip in his hand angrily, "Are you still awake?"

"Boss!" Deputy General Cao saw the person in front of him clearly, his soul was almost terrified, "You... why did you come here, old man?"

"I can't afford to be your old man. I'm just a bastard who beat you." Fang Zilan's half-smile expression made Deputy General Cao cry inwardly, "Boss, look at my mouth."

He said that he was about to give himself a mouthful, but Fang Zilan wrapped his wrist with a whip, "Okay, I'm just joking with you, you are tired from the journey these days, after eating moon cakes later, go to rest early."

Deputy General Cao saw that Fang Zilan didn't intend to argue with him, so he immediately breathed a sigh of relief and felt a lot more relieved, "Old Li is back?"

"I've been back a long time ago. The moon cakes are all distributed, and I'm just waiting for you." Fang Zilan took the whip and walked back, "I said you have been here for so long, let alone the horses and horses. Come and take a look, who knew you were sleeping in the stable."

"Boss..." Deputy General Cao hurriedly followed shyly.

Fang Zilan paused, turned her head and said: "Next time you are tired, just say it and go back to sleep comfortably. I don't have so many rules, so what to say, remember?"

"Remember." Vice-General Cao nodded hastily, "I don't know what's going on today, but I fell asleep after feeding the horse. It's really evil."

Of course Fang Zilan couldn't tell him that he was drugged, so he could only laugh and turn things around.

After the two went back, the three of them ate moon cakes and chatted for a while, and then went back to their rooms to rest.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, Fang Zilan and his party stopped and stopped, and finally arrived at Yanzhou City in the north after more than half a month.

Huang Fulin had been prepared for a long time, and had been waiting in Yanzhou City since receiving the news.

When Fang Zilan saw him, she felt both lucky and had a headache. Fortunately, there was someone as shrewd as Huangfulin to take care of the Shangguan family, but the headache was also because of Huangfulin's shrewdness. aware.

She remained as calm as usual, and after exchanging a few words with Huangfulin, Huangfulin brought her to the front of Shangguan's mansion. Before she could take down the plaque with the word Shangguan, she was about to replace it with a new one. host.

It's just that if she just lives in it like this, she might have trouble sleeping and eating.

Huangfulin saw Fang Zilan standing at the door and staring at the plaque above his head, so he took the initiative to speak, "Master Fang, in the entire Yanzhou City, only the mansion of the Shangguan family is enough for Shanggongqing, and I will also give it to the emperor. Excuse me, the emperor means that extravagance and waste should not be done after the war, so let me take this house and leave it to Mr. Fang to come and deal with it later."

Hearing the voice, Fang Zilan withdrew her gaze, with a cold expression, "It's okay, just take off this plaque, and I won't pick anything else."

"Okay, then I'll order someone to take the plaque away." Huang Fulin nodded in response, turned around and ordered the guards behind him.

Seeing Huangfulin's reaction, Fang Zilan's heart sank. He is not a blind person. He deliberately performed such a scene of picking plaques in front of her. He probably wanted to show her off. I'm afraid there are other people standing behind him. , I just don’t know if I can see you today while taking advantage of this good show.

Sure enough, after Huang Fulin gave the order, he changed his voice, "Lord Fang, the plaque of the Shangguan family is too heavy, and it may not be easy to remove it. Why don't we go in and talk first, and we can take it out later when we find a craftsman."

To take such a trouble to find a craftsman to get a plaque, Huang Fulin is really serious nonsense.

Fang Zilan smiled coldly, "I never talk about my own affairs under the roof of others."

The meaning behind her words was obvious, and Huangfu Lin could only laugh along with her, "Master Fang, aren't you embarrassing me? The handover is imminent, so you can feel at ease sooner."

Fang Zilan played with the horsewhip in her hand leisurely and gracefully, "I don't dare to embarrass General Huangfu, how about General Huangfu tell me first, who asked the general to keep this plaque, and then I will consider whether to take it or not?"

However, the smile on Huangfulin's face froze, "Master Fang, what are you talking about? The emperor's imperial decree has already come down, and the Shangguan family has already dealt with it, let alone a plaque?"

"Since this plaque doesn't need to be kept, there is no need to go to such a trouble to find a craftsman." Fang Zilan said, waving the horsewhip in his hand, hooking the corner of the plaque, "I thought General Huangfu wanted to keep the plaque to see things and think about others, not that It's much easier to handle."

Fang Zilan exerted strength in her hand, and as soon as she finished speaking, the plaque fell straight down, and landed between her and Huangfulin, splitting in two.

Huang Fulin didn't have time to dodge, the dust from the plaque fell all over his body, he was really ashamed.

The people around were also stunned by the sudden loud noise, and then saw the broken plaque on the ground, the vermilion lacquer was no longer as bright as before, and the gold characters were also broken into several curved sections.

Like the fragmented Shangguan family, the scenery is gone, as if announcing the end of an era in the northern border.

"Lord Fang, you..." Huangfu Lin was shocked, he didn't expect that Fang Zilan could not tolerate sand in his eyes like this.He stuttered for a while, but couldn't say anything.

Fang Zilan didn't care about his reaction, and turned to look at the two lieutenants following her, "Pick up the chin, and then clean up this."

Vice-General Cao was stunned before he could recover, and was immediately elbowed by Vice-General Li next to him, "Yes, boss. But what about this plaque?"

"Chop it up and use it as firewood." Fang Zilan said calmly, but Huang Fulin reached out and wiped the cold sweat on his forehead. This act broke the last hope of all the old people in the northern border, and also attracted Shangguan's cronies The resentment, isn't this looking for trouble for yourself?

It's not that she has no brains to be able to obtain gilt from Pingbei, but why doesn't she understand that a little intolerance can lead to a big conspiracy?Sure enough, it was still a woman's belly, Huang Fulin couldn't help but sighed as he thought about it.

Fang Zilan stepped into the threshold of the house, and suddenly heard Huangfu Lin sigh, turned to look at him and said, "General Huangfu thinks it's a pity?"

"It's nothing." Huang Fulin shook his head, and walked into the Shangguan's mansion with her.

Due to the change of Shangguan's family, the courtyard is not as neat as usual, with sloping vegetation and scattered furniture, it is quite messy.

"If Mr. Fang needs it, I'll send someone to help clean it up later." Huangfulin seemed to be unable to bear it any longer, and whispered to the side, but Fang Zilan didn't care much, "Aren't all the women from the Shangguan family enslaved?" Are you registered? Let them clean it up."

"This..." Huangfulin smiled forcedly. Although he was enslaved, he was a member of the Shangguan family after all. A centipede is dead but not stiff, who dares to touch it casually.However, when it came to Fang Zilan, she really had no taboos.

"General Huangfu's reaction..." Fang Zilan pondered for a moment, stopped and turned her head and said, "Isn't he already sold out?"

"Don't dare." Huangfu Lin hurriedly waved his hands to deny, Fang Zilan still just smiled, "It's not a big deal if you sell it."

Huangfulin smiled wryly, "Everyone is in the backyard, Mr. Fang doesn't believe that we can go and see later."

Fang Zilan didn't bother to talk to him anymore, "General Huangfu doesn't need to be like this, I just said it casually. If there is anything you need to tell the general to hand over, just say it."

"Lord Fang, you are polite." Huangfu Lin smiled, "The old Shangguan family has many entanglements, I dare not deal with it arbitrarily. Now that the emperor has ordered Sir Fang to garrison the northern border, he is in charge of all affairs, and I shouldn't." What to say, but after all, Yanzhou City has been managed by Shangguan's family before, and only Shangguan's cronies can tell the truth about it."

"I understand what General Huangfu means. Xiao Gui and Cao Sui, as long as the Shangguan's cronies uphold their duties and don't take the opportunity to make trouble, I won't embarrass them." Fang Zilan spoke solemnly, and Huangfulin also nodded, "Master Fang knows how to measure That's fine. You have to worry about the affairs of the military camp, but since the Tiger Talisman of the Northern Territory is not here, I'm afraid those reckless men in the army may not listen to what your lord says."

"Tiger Talisman of the Northern Territory?" Fang Zilan realized that Li Shengxuan had made another move. Did he treat her like an empty puppet in the Northern Territory?
"Your Excellency, don't you know?" Huangfu Lin feigned surprise, Fang Zilan could only force a smile, "Of course I know. I don't need the general to worry about military affairs, I have my own way."

Seeing that Fang Zilan didn't question him, Huang Fulin breathed a sigh of relief, and talked eloquently, "I'm relieved when Mr. Fang said that. The control of Yanzhou has always been divided into civil and military affairs. Mr. Fang is here to inherit the old position of the superior and to rule the border. It is a military post. However, Mr. Fang has a very high position as the Duke of Beiguo, and he can intervene in all matters within Yanzhou, and officials of all sizes in Yanzhou should honor him with the courtesy of a minister."

"As for the civil service, Mr. Zhong Yao, the magistrate of Yanzhou, has served for three years. He is fair and honest and has a good reputation. If Mr. Fang needs anything, he can discuss with Mr. Zhongyao at any time, or send someone to Pingshan City to inform me. As long as Master Fang speaks, Huangfu Lin will die."

Fang Zilan was stunned for a moment by Huangfulin's determined attitude, and then he reacted.Among the eighteen cities in Yanzhou, Pingshan City is also one of them, no wonder he is so concerned about it.

However, Huangfu Lin is also a high ranking official, so speaking of it, he is an aristocratic family on an equal footing with the Shangguan family in the northern border. It's just that the descendants of the Huangfu family are not good at fighting, so they are a little shorter than the Shangguan family in the chaos of the northern border.

Now that the northern border is much more peaceful, she is alone and weak, and she is afraid that she will have to rely on Huangfulin's help in the future.

Thinking of this, she clasped her fists and saluted solemnly: "What is General Huangfu talking about. If General Huangfu needs me, just ask, Fang Zilan will be sent by you."

"Master Fang is too serious, Huangfulin can't bear it." Huangfulin hurriedly returned a salute, "From now on, the northern border is entirely up to your lord."

　Knock on the blackboard to draw key points, and things in the northern border have started!
