Chapter 33: Unclear Relationships
Fang Zihuai saw Fang Jinyi again in Youjin Garden, where it had been burned to the ground, and at a glance, he knew that it was deliberately burned.
The General's Mansion is different from other places, there are people patrolling day and night, and if the fire is not deliberately allowed to spread, as long as someone puts out the fire, it will definitely not burn like this.
Fang Jinyi asked Xiao Tao to wait at the gate of the courtyard and went in alone, when Fang Zihuai and Su Zixu came, Xiao Tao did not stop the two.
Seeing that the place where she grew up has become a barren place, Fang Jinyi felt very sad in her heart, she stood by the pond that had dried up, looking at the dry mud in the pond, and felt that Youjin Garden was desolate for the first time.
In the past, when Youjin Yuan was first sealed by Fang Yanyu, Fang Jinyi would sneak in from time to time to take a look, looking at the lush trees, flowers and plants withering and turning into dead branches, but at that time, he only felt a little depressed.
But now, there's really nothing.
"Second sister."
Fang Zihuai's voice sounded behind him, Fang Jinyi turned around and saw the two of them, revealing a smile, "Why are you here?" ”
Fang Zihuai looked around, then walked up to Fang Jinyi, and said with some guilt: "I'm sorry, second sister, I didn't know that my mother would do this." Don't worry, I'll get this place back up as soon as possible. ”
Fang Jinyi smiled and shook his head, "Don't bother, it's an abandoned yard, just burn it." ”
"But second sister, isn't this the courtyard where you and Erniang have been living? Are you really willing to do it? Fang Zihuai said a little anxiously. Although many people say that Erniang is not treated by his father, he couldn't sleep in the middle of the night a few times when he was a child, and he once saw many power Yanyu coming to Youjin Garden.
"What's there to be reluctant to? It's just a yard that has been abandoned for many years. Fang Jinyi smiled bitterly, and then walked around the two of them towards the door.
Fang Zihuai and Su Zixu glanced at each other, then followed, and saw Fang Jinyi walking out of the courtyard towards his own courtyard, Fang Zihuai stopped.
"What's wrong?"
Su Zixu saw Fang Zihuai stop in place, and also stopped, only to hear Fang Zihuai say, "Will the second sister not want to see me?" ”
Su Zixu was slightly stunned, then frowned and pushed him, and said, "What do you want?" Seeing his hesitation, he sighed helplessly.
"Although she is not your own sister, don't you know what she is like to you? I know, you may wonder if she didn't trust you because she didn't trust you by hiding so many things from you before. But if you think about it, is it really because she doesn't believe you? She's just protecting you and doesn't want you to get into danger because of her. ”
Fang Zihuai looked at Su Zixu, and then at Fang Jinyi, who had his back to them, and his eyes gradually became firm.
"Second sister."
Su Zixu looked at the person who ran towards Fang Jinyi, and shook his head helplessly and funny, no wonder everyone was protecting him, he was really a little kid.
Fang Jinyi glanced back at Fang Zihuai, stopped and waited for him, and when he walked in front of him, he glanced at Xiao Tao next to him, intentionally or unintentionally.
Fang Zihuai saw Fang Jinyi's movements, and immediately understood, bent down to Fang Jinyi and hugged his fists: "County Lord." ”
"No need to be polite."
Fang Jinyi smiled lightly, and then continued to walk forward, Su Zixu walked very slowly, walking at the end as if he was thinking about something?
Sheng Sheng still lived in the old house, very close to Fang Jinyi's house, and immediately came out of the house when she heard the sound, followed by a maid who was waiting for her.
"Miss."
Sheng Sheng walked up to Fang Jinyi, and when he saw Fang Zihuai, he owed him again, "I've seen Fang Gongzi." ”
Because Sheng Sheng was wearing a veil, Fang Zihuai didn't recognize her, looked at her suspiciously, and said, "The girl doesn't have to be formal. ”
Sheng Sheng looked at Fang Zihuai, who was full of doubts, and the corners of his mouth raised lightly, "Young Master Fang, the slave is Sheng Sheng." ”
Fang Zihuai was stunned, then immediately reacted, and said with a surprised face: "Are you Shengsheng?" Seeing Sheng Sheng nodded, he wondered, "Then why are you covering your face?" I didn't even recognize you. ”
The smile in Shengsheng's eyes disappeared, Fang Jinyi looked at her, and said to Fang Zihuai, "Come into the house and talk." ”
Fang Jinyi instructed Xiao Tao and the maid to guard outside, and then the four of them entered the house, and as soon as they entered the house, Sheng Sheng coughed lightly, and Su Zixu immediately stepped forward to check her pulse.
Fang Zihuai looked at Fang Jinyi, who was full of worry, and then looked at Su Zixu, who was diagnosing his pulse, and then remembered that Su Zixu had just said that both of them had injuries.
"How's it going?" Fang Jinyi saw that Su Zixu had finished diagnosing his pulse, and immediately asked worriedly.
"It's okay, maybe I've been tired from the road recently, just rest for a few days." Su Zixu shook his head and comforted, and then asked, "What about my sister-in-law?" How does it feel? ”
Fang Jinyi tried his left hand, and said with a wry smile: "The pain has decreased a lot, but it still can't be used." ”
"Sister-in-law, don't worry, you have broken bones, how can it be so easy. But with me here, I'll get you both back. Su Zixu swore an oath.
Fang Jinyi chuckled lightly, didn't speak, just looked at Fang Zihuai and asked, "Why did you come back suddenly?" Doesn't it mean that the southern country has been in trouble lately? ”
"I don't know, I came back by order, and I haven't had time to enter the palace to see the saint." Fang Zihuai shook his head and said, paused, and continued: "Second sister, do you want to enter the palace?" ”
Fang Jinyi was silent for a moment, nodded and said, "Naturally, I want to go." Now that I have appeared in the southern kingdom as the lord of the Eastern Li Kingdom, in order to avoid causing trouble, I sent a letter to the palace yesterday, and I will enter the palace tomorrow to meet the saint. ”
"Are you going?" Fang Zihuai looked at Su Zixu, his face was obviously a little ugly.
Su Zixu raised his eyebrows, and said in a serious tone: "Of course I ......"
"He's not going."
Fang Jinyi interrupted Su Zixu's words, now that the relationship between Twilight Rain Villa and the imperial court is delicate, at this juncture, it is better to cause less trouble.
Su Zixu frowned dissatisfiedly and said, "Why don't you let me go?" I'm the messenger of the flowers, and if my eldest brother hands you over to me, I will be responsible for your safety. ”
"I have no relationship with your eldest brother for a long time." Fang Jinyi said with a serious face, looking at Su Zixu with a serious expression, "You can go back tomorrow." ”
Su Zixu frowned at her dissatisfied, and said in an unhappy tone: "Sister-in-law, are you going to cross the river and tear down the bridge?" ”
Fang Jinyi frowned for a long time before he spoke: "In today's situation, it's better for us to have less contact." ”
"What else?" Su Zixu looked at her with a gloomy face and said, "If one day we become enemies, sister-in-law, will you treat it as if you don't know me, don't you know my eldest brother?" ”
The atmosphere instantly became delicate, Fang Zihuai and Sheng Sheng both looked at the two quietly, they were discussing not only the personal relationship of their children, but also the rise and fall of the country.
"You don't know martial arts, it's best to stay in the villa in the near future, if someone catches you, your eldest brother will be very embarrassed."
Fang Jinyi did not answer Su Zixu's question, in the current situation, she didn't want to, and she couldn't help discussing this. She just wants to finish what Liyang arranged for her now, and then take her sister to leave these places of right and wrong and live freely.
Su Zixu didn't speak again, Fang Zihuai looked at him, sighed in his heart, patted him on the shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, I'll take care of the second sister, don't worry." ”
"Can you protect?" Su Zixu glanced at him with some disdain, and said mockingly: "Do you know how many people want to harm your sister-in-law? Even this general's mansion is not only your mother. ”
Su Zixu's words were a little straightforward, Fang Zihuai's face instantly became ugly after hearing this, he knew that his mother didn't like the second sister, but it wouldn't be to the point of harming her.
Fang Jinyi heard what Su Zixu said, at this moment, only Liu Qingqing wanted to attack her in the general's mansion, but listening to Su Zixu's meaning, it seemed that there were other people hidden?
Su Zixu looked at Fang Jinyi, saw that her brows were slightly furrowed, and she looked thoughtful, she sighed helplessly in her heart, and then said intentionally or unintentionally: "That Ziyu's injury is not serious, I can get out of bed and walk around tomorrow, and it will heal in two or three days." ”
Fang Jinyi looked up at him, but Su Zixu seemed to have just been angry with Fang Jinyi, and turned his head and was unwilling to talk to her. Seeing his appearance, Fang Jinyi couldn't help but hook the corners of his mouth, and then immediately recovered his expression.
Several people were in a stalemate, and Xiao Tao outside the door suddenly walked to the door and saluted, "County Lord, someone is here." ”
Fang Jinyi and the others looked at the door, and soon heard footsteps, and the housekeeper walked to the door with the people in the palace.
"Which one is the county lord of Dongli Kingdom?"
Fang Jinyi glanced at Fang Zihuai, got up and said, "I am." ”
"There is a decree from the saint, please enter the palace immediately to meet you."
Fang Zihuai and Su Zixu, who were kneeling on the ground, looked at each other at the same time, with serious expressions, they didn't expect it to come so quickly.
And Fang Jinyi seemed to have guessed early in the morning, and saluted calmly: "Du Yue takes the order." After getting up, Fang Jinyi said to her father-in-law, who conveyed the will, "Please allow me to prepare." ”
"County Lord, please."
Fang Jinyi glanced at Xiao Tao, Xiao Tao immediately got up and accompanied her into the back room, and Sheng Sheng also followed.
The father-in-law on the side saw Fang Zihuai, and immediately smiled and said, "The little boy is back?" When he came, the saint said that if he saw the little boy, he would let the little boy follow him into the palace and discuss important matters. ”
Fang Zihuai nodded, "I'm tired." ”
When Fang Jinyi came out of the inner room, he changed his clothes, and he was originally going to wash up when he arrived at the General's Mansion, but when he heard that Youjin Yuan was burned, he couldn't help but find Liu Qingqing first.
After Fang Jinyi walked over, he looked at Su Zixu and said, "You can go back today, I guess I won't see you for a while in the future, take care of yourself." ”
Su Zixu knew what Fang Jinyi cared about, and he didn't want to embarrass her, so he nodded and said, "Okay, if there is something, don't worry about getting into trouble, send us a message immediately." ”
Fang Jinyi nodded, then looked at Gonggong and said, "I'm tired of my father-in-law." ”
Subsequently, Fang Jinyi took Xiao Tao and Fang Zihuai into the palace, Sheng Sheng became seriously injured because of her injuries, and Fang Jinyi let her stay in the General's Mansion to rest.
And Su Zixu wrote the prescriptions of the two, handed them to Sheng Sheng, and gave them another instruction, and then left the general's mansion.
