Don't ask where people go

Fang Zilan looked at the little girl who spoke, her face was somewhat familiar.

After a little thought, the name Shangguan Linglan suddenly appeared in Fang Zilan's mind, causing her to squint her eyes, "So what if you don't believe me?"

"If you don't believe me, I'll find the murderer myself." Shangguan Linglan looked like a newborn calf who was not afraid of tigers.

Fang Zilan found it very interesting, and smiled slightly: "Then you might as well give it a try."

Shangguan Linglan didn't seem to have expected that Fang Zilan would agree so readily, and stood there in a daze without any reaction.

On the contrary, Shangguan Kuo who was at the side suddenly said, "Since Mr. Fang allows everyone to find the murderer together, I have a few questions that I would like to ask Sister Linglan for advice."

Shangguan Linglan looked at Shangguan Kuo, nodded in response, "Say it."

After obtaining Shangguan Linglan's consent, Shangguan Kuo considered carefully: "I checked the purchase record written by the butler, and found that every purchase was made by two people together. There were two times when I remembered that it was Sister Linglan, you and Sister Lingmei. , and the other time I went with sister Lingyun, both of them disappeared, but you came back."

"You doubt me?" Shangguan Linglan frowned, her expression was obviously displeased, "Didn't others come back when they went shopping?"

"If it's someone else, when they come back, they come back together. When they disappear, they disappear at the same time. Sister Linglan, this situation has only happened to you." Yu, "I don't know if Sister Linglan has any explanation?"

"You!" Shangguan Linglan bit her lips tightly, and turned her head to one side, "It's fine if you don't believe me, I have nothing to explain."

"Really?" Shangguan Qi smiled noncommittally, and was about to say something more, but Fang Zilan suddenly stood up and straightened his clothes.

Fang Zilan said in a low voice: "You Shangguan's family is interrogating your own people, so I won't stand by and watch the excitement." After she finished speaking, she turned her head and went out of the yard, but she still did not forget to ask Vice General Cao to take good care of everyone and not let anyone be missing.

A Wan followed Fang Zilan and left the courtyard, and when she saw no one around, she approached Fang Zilan and said in a low voice, "What are your plans?"

"Naturally, the suspicion of murder must be cleared first." Fang Zilan kept walking, her tone was calm, "You went to the court with me today, and you should have seen that Zhong Yao didn't dare to deal with me without conclusive evidence. He If he is really helpless and selfish, he may even be biased towards me. But if this matter drags on for a long time, even if there is no evidence, he will not be able to withstand the pressure of the northern family and the spit of the people of Yanzhou."

"Then where are we going now?" A Wan asked uncertainly, "Could it be to Wang's house?"

"Report a letter to Zhong Yao first, and then go to Wang's house." While Fang Zilan was speaking, she had already seen the right time to take A Wan out of the mansion quietly.

After confirming that no one was paying attention, Fang Zilan took A Wan to hide in the alley, and then continued, "As soon as the accountant leaves the house, he will definitely inform his master, no matter whether his master is Zhao Jinqian or not, he will always talk to that I will let you know. Others dare not say that Huo Sanniang's skin business is at the cusp of the storm, and she must avoid the limelight. Tell me, will she make any moves?"

A Wan hurriedly nodded and said, "Of course I will."

"As long as Zhong Yao moves quickly, he can block Huo Sanniang for a while." Fang Zilan pulled A Wan with ease and turned left and right. How did you find it?"

"Before I decided to go back to the city, I had seen the map of Yanzhou countless times." Fang Zilan said and motioned Awan to look not far ahead, which was Zhizhou's capital. "Actually, Shangguan's old house is very close to Zhizhou's mansion. It's just that people can't see it when they walk on the main road. It's just a blink of an eye if they walk on the alley."

"But the people behind Huo Sanniang, will they just watch Zhong Yao arrest Huo Sanniang?" A Wan and Fang Zilan turned over the back wall of the mansion while worrying: "Wouldn't it be worse if they startled the snake? "

"The enemy is in the dark and we are in the light. They will always know what we do." Fang Zilan lightly jumped off the wall, stood in the grass and helped Awan down from the wall, "It is better to take the initiative to attack than to be led by the nose." , Let’s see what other tricks they have.”

After Fang Zilan finished speaking, she pulled Awan and walked towards the courtyard, but before she took two steps, she saw Zhong Yao drinking tea alone under the pavilion in the courtyard.

After Fang Zilan and A Wan exchanged glances, they walked down to the pavilion in a graceful manner, "Lord Zhong is very elegant."

"I'm waiting for Mrs. Fang." Zhong Yao poured out a cup of tea, put it in front of her, and made a gesture of invitation.

Fang Zilan sat across from Zhong Yao unceremoniously, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, nodded and said: "This tea is not bad."

Zhong Yao was dressed in plain clothes at the moment, without the majesty of the hall, on the contrary, he was a little more smoky.He smiled slightly and said, "Master Fang is here, do you have something to say to me?"

"Since Mr. Zhong guessed that I will come, you might as well guess again, what I want to say." Fang Zilan said and put the teacup on the table.

Zhong Yao added tea for her, with a smile on his face, "Master Fang is in a hurry, so anxious and in the mood to guess riddles with me, it is really a good mood."

"Lord Zhong, if people are too smart, they will have a lot less fun." Fang Zilan shook her head helplessly, "My housekeeper and his wife have both recruited, and they sold the missing Shangguan woman to Huo Sanniang. The people who patronized Huo Sanniang's flesh and blood business did not know what to do and killed them."

"The housekeeper's lady in Mr. Fang's house, but the woman who blocked the way just now?" Zhong Yao took a sip of tea, Fang Zilan was stunned for a moment by his calm and unsurprising appearance, and then he reacted, "You should Wouldn't have known..."

Fang Zilan didn't continue, but Zhong Yao nodded, "I told Mr. Fang earlier in the courtroom. This matter needs to be investigated and Mr. Fang's consent is needed."

"You're using me as a shield." Fang Zilan's expression darkened a bit, but she didn't expect to be swayed by Zhong Yao.

Seeing her change of expression, Zhong Yao also suppressed his smile and said seriously: "Master Fang is so restless. Then I dare to ask Mr. Fang, what do you think is a good official?"

Zhong Yao suddenly changed his voice, but Fang Zilan was startled.

Seeing that she didn't respond, Zhong Yao continued on his own, "The so-called parents and officials must consider the common people. But Mr. Fang, have you ever thought about what the common people are?"

"Everyone in this world is a common people." Fang Zilan replied with the opportunity.

Zhong Yao nodded approvingly, "Lord Fang is right. Since everyone is a commoner, so is everyone in the high courtyard of the aristocratic family."

Hearing this, A Wan interjected dissatisfiedly: "How can family members be compared with ordinary people?"

　Fang Zilan: Zhong Yao must be my ally!

　　Awan: Are you sure?
