Chapter 31: Right and Wrong
Ever since Fang Jinyuan left the border pass and went to Dongli, Fang Zihuai has always felt that something is wrong. Even Su Zixu also showed that Sheng Sheng is not an ordinary person, even so, the identity of Fang Jinyi is even more suspicious.
But no matter who Fang Zihuai asked, no one was willing to tell him the truth of the matter, so he had no choice but to give up the investigation for the time being and guard the border.
It's just that I didn't expect that just a few days after Fang Jinyuan left, the border pass suddenly changed, but fortunately, Fang Yanyu was always there, and they guarded the border pass together, and they were not broken by the enemy army in the end.
But the rest of the southern kingdom is not so lucky, the capital is full of hidden murderous opportunities, and some well-intentioned people hiding in the shadows may assassinate the current saint at any time and seek to seize the throne, but Yan Yumo can't find a chance to eradicate the tumor.
After the battle, Fang Yanyu immediately sent a message to Fang Jinyuan, but Fang Jinyuan never came back, and they didn't have any extra thoughts to think about whether something was wrong with him, so they could only stick to the border.
Later, after the battle at the border pass subsided, Fang Yanyu rushed to other places where there was a war, and only Fang Zihuai was guarding the border pass, and Fang Jinyuan's deputy general Qi Yi guarded it.
Qi Yi has followed Fang Jinyuan for many years, and his tactical wisdom and strategy are equal to Fang Jinyuan's, and the two are not only subordinates, but also good brothers and good friends.
On the battlefield, Qi Yi has been protecting Fang Zihuai, Fang Zihuai is Fang Jinyuan's younger brother, and naturally his younger brother. What's more, Fang Zihuai killed the enemy on the battlefield for the first time, and he didn't have any experience, so he should protect him.
After Fang Yanyu left, Fang Zihuai had always obeyed Qi Yi's orders, he knew that he had no experience in warfare, and it was most appropriate to let Qi Yi command at this time.
About half a month later, Fang Jinyuan suddenly returned, and he said that he rushed back immediately after getting the news. When Fang Zihuai said that they had sent him a letter as early as the day after the battle, Fang said that he had not received the letter.
Obviously, someone intercepted the letter, and as for who it was, Fang Jinyuan knew very well in his heart.
Fang Zihuai asked Fang Jinyi if he went to Dongli to find Fang Jinyi, but Fang Jinyuan did not admit it, nor did he deny it, but just told him that Fang Jinyi was fine.
Because of this incident, Fang Zihuai and Fang Jinyuan had a big quarrel, which was the first time the two brothers had quarreled.
The reason for the quarrel between the two is also very simple, Fang Jinyi feels that the matter about Fang Jinyi is too involved, and she is unwilling to let Fang Zihuai wade into this troubled water. But Fang Zihuai felt that they were a family, and they hid everything they did, which was obviously distrustful of him.
In the end, Fang Jinyi still didn't tell Fang Zihuai about Fang Jinyi, after all, the implication was really too big, and it was related to two countries, and he still put safety first.
Later, the matter was over, and Fang Jinyuan was busy training troops and discussing military affairs every day. Fang Zihuai, like other soldiers, practiced martial arts every day, and when he had time, he would make a few moves with Qi Yi.
Fang Zihuai suddenly remembered Lin Lang, when Fang Jinyi and Su Muqiu first got married, Lin Lang often instructed him in martial arts and would accompany him to practice swords.
But at some point, everything changed. Su Muqiu became the former prince of the Southern Kingdom and was trying to seize the throne, while Fang Jinyi also left the Southern Kingdom. For a while, he didn't know who was telling the truth and who was playing on the spot.
When Iwa-cheol received the order to return to the capital, he was having dinner with Fang Jinbang, and it was the first time they had sat down to eat together since their quarrel.
Fang Jinyuan finished reading the holy decree and was silent for a long time, and then told him to let him do whatever he wanted in the future, and not think too much.
Fang Zihuai didn't understand the meaning of Fang Jin's words, but he still resolutely packed up his things and rushed back as quickly as possible.
It's just that I didn't expect that as soon as I returned to the General's Mansion, I saw Fang Jinyi, who had been worried for a long time.
"Second sister? It's really you. ”
Fang Zihuai looked at Fang Jinyi with a surprised expression, and then ran over happily, just as he wanted to hug her, he was stopped by Xiao Tao.
"Little boy, this is the county lord of Dongli Kingdom, please don't be rude."
Xiao Tao didn't care what Fang Zihuai's identity was, her only purpose for coming with her this time was to ensure Fang Jinyi's safety and clear the obstacles.
"County Lord?" Fang Zihuai looked at Fang Jinyi, frowned, and said, "Second sister, what's going on?" How can you be the county lord of Dongli Kingdom? ”
Fang Jinyi looked at him and chuckled, and said, "Young Master Fang, many years ago, the Holy Lord of the Dongli Kingdom personally made me the county lord. ”
"Does the eldest brother know about this?" Fang Zihuai hesitated, in fact, he already had the answer in his heart.
Fang Jinyi walked to the chair and sat down, looked at him and said, "We just met some time ago, so he naturally knows about it. ”
Fang Zihuai was silent for a long time, looked at Fang Jinyi and said in a deep voice: "Second sister, what is going on?" ”
Fang Jinyi looked at him and didn't speak, Su Zixu next to him saw that the atmosphere was not right, and immediately walked towards Fang Zihuai and said, "Fang Gongzi just came back from the border pass, and he was tired all the way, why don't you let him diagnose Gongzi's pulse?" ”
Everyone in the hall looked at Su Zixu, as if they were very strange why he suddenly said such a thing, only Fang Zihuai frowned after looking at him, "Who are you?" ”
"I'm a doctor." Su Zixu walked up to him and stopped, turned sideways, and showed him the jade pendant on his waist.
It is said that it is a jade pendant, but it is not actually a small object made of jade. At the beginning, the two followed Fang Jinyuan to the border pass, but when they encountered danger on the way, Su Zixu saved Fang Zihuai. Later, when the two went to the market, Su Zixu stared at this small object, and Fang Zihuai saw that he liked it, so he bought it and gave it to him, saying that it was a thank you gift.
Fang Zihuai was originally quite strange, but when he saw the jade object on Su Zixu's waist, he immediately reacted, and he was so excited that he almost blurted out his name. Su Zixu reacted quickly, and when he saw that he was about to call himself, he hurriedly interrupted: "There are a lot of people here, why don't we change places." ”
Fang Zihuai looked at Fang Jinyi, and saw that Fang Jinyi was looking ahead without squinting, so he nodded and said, "It's hard work." ”
Liu Qingqing looked at Fang Zihuai, who was leaving with Su Zixu, obviously didn't react, shouldn't she be angry with her? Why did you leave with such a casual word?
After Fang Zihuai and the two left, Fang Jinyi looked at Liu Qingqing and said, "I have already ordered someone to release Ziyu, and please don't embarrass her in the future." ”
Although Liu Qingqing has never studied, she also knows that those who know the times are Junjie, especially after experiencing the slapping of Fang Cai, so she immediately nodded and agreed: "Yes, I will follow the orders of the county lord." ”
Xiao Tao walked back to Fang Jinyi and stopped, and returned to her previous expression, the difference between her low-eyed and pleasing appearance and Fang Cai's domineering appearance was simply 108,000 miles.
Fang Jinyi took a sip of the teacup, glanced at the nervous Liu Qingqing, and then put the teacup on the table and made a clear sound.
"I heard that you ordered someone to set fire to Youjin Garden?"
Liu Qingqing's body trembled violently, looked at Fang Jinyi with a cold face, and whispered: "I didn't let people set the fire." ”
"Isn't it?" Fang Jinyi looked at her and asked rhetorically.
Liu Qingqing's eyes dodged and she didn't dare to look at her, and whispered: "The county lord is too worried, the weather has been dry recently, and there are many dead trees and branches in Youjin Garden, and it is normal for a fire to catch fire suddenly." ”
Fang Jinyi's right index finger tapped on the tabletop, and his eyes looked fixedly at Liu Qingqing, who was trying to calm herself, and after a while, he got up and walked towards her.
"Mrs. Liu, you and I know exactly where that fire came about. You should be glad I don't have proof, otherwise you wouldn't be standing in front of me right now. ”
Liu Qingqing instantly breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Fang Jinyi who was close at hand, tried to squeeze out a smile, and said, "That, Jinyi, we ......"
"Mrs. Liu really doesn't have a long memory." Fang Jinyi interrupted her words, and the corners of her mouth hooked: "I am no longer Fang Jinyi, remember, my name is Du Yue, and I am the county lord of Dongli Kingdom." ”
Du Yue?
"County Lord, please calm your anger, I didn't mean to." Liu Qingqing said while owing herself, "It's just that you have lived in this general's mansion for more than ten years, and you can't change your mouth for a while." Besides, I think your dad should be happy to see him back, but your dad probably likes to call you Kimono. ”
Fang Jinyi looked at him with a slight change in face, raised his eyebrows and said, "My father is the general of Zhenguo in my southern country, and before you married into the General's Mansion, you were just a woman who lived in Fireworks Willow Lane. In front of me, my dad is my dad, you are you, don't confuse you. ”
What Liu Qingqing hates the most on weekdays is that someone mentions her past, she knows that her status is low, and she is not worthy of Shang Yanyu. But now it's different, now the saint is her son-in-law, her daughter is the queen, who dares to insult her with words.
Thinking about it like this, Liu Qingqing felt much more comfortable, looked at Fang Jinyi and said, "I know you don't like me, but I think you also know in your heart that since your father married me, then I am your stepmother." Juniors should at least have respect for their elders. If you treat me like this today, if it spreads, I'm afraid you will lose your father and the face of Dongli Kingdom. ”
Fang Jinyi raised her eyebrows slightly, it seems that this Liu Qingqing is really not immortal in the heart of the Yellow River! I thought that after Fang Cai's experience, I would be more restrained, but I didn't expect to dare to provoke her now.
"You're right. But there is one thing you forget, I am not Fang Jinyi, I am Du Yue. So you're not my stepmother, and I'm not your junior, so I don't have to respect you. ”
Fang Jinyi walked around Liu Qingqing, looked at her, and continued: "And respect for this matter, it depends on the person." You just used a little trick, and then married into the general's mansion and became the general's wife. Do you think no one will know about all the you've done? ”
Hearing these words, Liu Qingqing's face changed greatly, but she still pretended to be calm and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?" I never used the means, and the general married me because he liked me. ”
Fang Jinyi chuckled, shook her head a little funny, and then approached her and said, "Don't think that others are as stupid as you, people like you, why do you think you can enter the General's Mansion?" ”
"What do you mean...... What do you mean? Liu Qingqing stammered a little, so nervous that she kept twisting her handkerchief.
Fang Jinyi looked at her with a smile on the corner of her mouth, and said softly for a while: "I heard, my dear sister, being a queen is very enjoyable?" ”
