It is difficult to make this deal, whether to do it or not.
If you do it, you can leave Dongting County. If you don’t do it, no one can leave Dongting County.
With life and death at stake, it was best to make this deal.
He looked indifferently at the grown-up little flower in front of him, feeling both familiar and unfamiliar. Ten years had passed, and no one could go back to the past. He suddenly felt a sense of loneliness as everything had changed and people had changed.
Zhang Zhongjian looked at Sai Yuhuan and said to her, "What do you mean? I will listen to you."
Sai Yuhuan frowned and thought for a moment before saying, "Okay, I'll do it."
Yin Jiujiu and others have always followed Sai Yuhuan's lead and never objected to her words, so they support Sai Yuhuan.
However, one person objected. This person was Ye Zelin. He was truly doing this for Hua Fushu's own good: "Fushu, don't get involved in these matters. Regardless of their identities, the 100,000 official silver coins are inextricably linked to them. You helped them leave Dongting County, which is illegal. As the wife of the Ye family, you cannot break the law. As parents, your parents would never let you put yourself in danger. As your husband, I don't want you to get involved in these matters. Their life and death have nothing to do with you."
Yu Chisu thought it made sense. Her uncle had often told her not to break the law knowingly. Whether as a friend or someone who had received her favor, she should also persuade Hua Fushu. Just as she was about to speak, Hua Fushu said, "Ye Zelin, you don't understand me. If I, Hua Fushu, want to know something, I must know it, even if it means using any means necessary."
Ye Zelin's handsome face showed calmness and composure, but his heart was full of anger and anxiety. He was annoyed that Hua Fushu was disobedient, he was annoyed that she meddled in these matters, and he was annoyed that she disregarded her own safety.
She knew that once the court knew about this, not only would she be in danger, but the Hua and Ye families might also be implicated. The Ye family was an important official in the court, commanding a large number of troops and guarding the western border. The current emperor was wise and would not punish the Ye family severely, but what about the Hua family?
The Hua family is just a small merchant family. If His Majesty is angry, how can the Hua family be safe? She is so bold and presumptuous that she actually went to investigate Huo Qing's rebellion. She was impulsive and ignorant and made a deal with the rebel. Does she want to die?
He tried his best to suppress the anger and anxiety in his heart, pretending to be angry and said: "Fushu, a married woman should obey her husband, and the husband is the leader of the wife. I am your husband, you must listen to me, this matter ends here, don't interfere anymore!"
Hua Fushu persevered and remained true to his original intention, "Impossible!"
Ever since she decided to investigate, she had no intention of giving up halfway. Since she was going to investigate, she had to get to the end. It was not Hua Fushu's style to give up halfway!
Ye Zelin glared at Hua Fushu fiercely and said deliberately, "Do you want to die? If you are not afraid of death, I can send you to death!"
Hua Fushu was stunned. How could this guy say such a thing? He was so vicious. But she soon understood that Ye Zelin was the tutor of the current emperor Zhao Zixu. He had a deep friendship with Zhao Zixu and was quite favored by Zhao Zixu. Did he want to tell Zhao Zixu about this and then kill her?
Thinking of this, Hua Fushu couldn't help but feel panic. Of course she was afraid of death. She still had so many things to do, how could she die?
But she acted extremely calm, as if she was really not afraid of life or death. She held Ye Zelin's hand. His hand was much bigger than hers, so she couldn't hold his entire palm, but she could hold a few of his fingers.
She looked at him with a sickly pale face, a gentle smile on her face. She said, "My husband, if you don't marry me, even if the court knows about it, it won't have anything to do with your Ye family. But if you marry me, it's neither easy nor difficult to stay out of it. If you want me to die, I will definitely drag you and the Ye family down with me. If we have to die, we will die together. I'm also a businessman, and it's not a loss to have you by my side."
Ye Zelin's mouth twitched as he glanced at the girl holding his hand. This girl had a harmless face as white as paper, but her mind was too vicious. It was obviously her who investigated these things, what did they have to do with him and the Ye family? She actually wanted to drag his Ye family into the water.
He really wanted to send her to death, but she couldn't see that. Was he doing it for her own good?
At this point, he said calmly: "I'm doing this for your own good, can you please be obedient?"
Hua Fushu also smiled. "I know you're doing this for my own good, but I have my own plans. Ye Zelin, you're not me. You don't understand how I feel when I investigate these things. I never thought of giving up from the beginning, and I won't give up. I've made this deal."
Ye Zelin looked at Hua Fushu's unusually serious face and was speechless for a moment. He understood her persistence and sympathized with her perseverance. Whether as her husband or her friend, Ye Zelin least wanted her to get entangled in these things, but she was already entangled and had no intention of withdrawing.
He sighed softly and stopped trying to persuade her. He couldn't stop her, so he could only help her. He couldn't do much, but he could keep this a secret for her and not tell His Majesty. He pulled his hand away from hers and said, "I'll only help you this once. From now on, I hope you won't drag down my Ye family."
Hua Fushu was overjoyed, "Thank you, husband."
She looked at Sai Yuhuan and gave two choices. "I have two manors in Qinzhou, Chuqing Manor and Meiling Manor. These two manors are not small and are more than enough to accommodate you. In Lanling, I have many good friends who can help me settle you. My suggestion is that you should choose Qinzhou. First, Qinzhou is closer to here and it is very convenient to travel by water. Lanling is a bit far and requires land travel, which is not very convenient. Chuqing Manor and Meiling Manor are both my private properties. You will be safe hiding there. Choose between Lanling or Qinzhou, Big Boss."
Sai Yuhuan chose Qinzhou without a doubt. In fact, she could only choose Qinzhou. The two choices given by Hua Fushu were just one choice, and she had no choice.
Hua Fushu gave a faint smile. She deliberately gave two choices, and she knew that Sai Yuhuan would definitely choose Qinzhou, because Qinzhou was Sai Yuhuan's only choice, which happened to be exactly what she wanted. She wanted Sai Yuhuan and others to go to Qinzhou and there would be no possibility of leaving.
If Sai Yuhuan changed her mind and didn't tell her about Beiling, she would have a hostage in her hand and wouldn't be afraid of Sai Yuhuan not telling her. She wanted to prove whether Sai Yuhuan was really an orphan of the Huo family. If she was, she would kill her with her own hands to avenge her uncle!
If Huo Qing hadn't rebelled, how could her beloved uncle have died?
If Sai Yuhuan was not an orphan of the Huo family, she would first avenge the sword, and then let her senior brother Qin Youran, as the lord of Qinzhou, capture Sai Yuhuan and others and put them all in jail. She would then be considered to have eliminated a scourge for the people.
