Chapter 650 Who Really Submits You? (Update 1)
"Master Xu, do you think Fan Chengzhuo really knew nothing about what Zheng Baosu did?"
Watching Fan Chengzhuo walk away, someone couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
Xu Fengchi did not comment. "Whether he knows or not, the truth will soon be revealed. Since he is so confident, let's just wait and see."
If there is really no connection between them, how could these people in the court be completely unaware of the relationship between these two?
If Xu Fengchi had not said it in public, Fan Chengzhuo would have had no way of arguing, and I'm afraid few people would believe that there was such a blood relationship between the two.
But it's okay this way.
No matter how they investigated afterwards, Fan Chengzhuo had no excuse to stop it.
He must reveal everything about himself and allow himself to be examined!
"No matter what, Fan's attitude is too arrogant!" Another person sneered, "Does he think he is a third-rank official?"
Xu Fengchi smiled.
"It's normal for him to be upset with such a cousin."
…
As soon as Fan Chengzhuo left the palace, he went straight to the Mansion of Marquis Zhongyong.
Xie Anjun, who was at home playing with his mistress, frowned immediately when he learned that Fan Chengzhuo had come to visit.
Only after comforting the beauty beside him did he leave reluctantly.
When he came to the front hall and saw Fan Chengzhuo, Xie Anjun felt even more dissatisfied.
"What are you doing here at this time?"
In the past, when the two met, they always chose to meet in private places, and they did not have much contact in public.
It's broad daylight now, in front of so many people, if someone notices...
"The situation is urgent, we can't care about that."
Fan Chengzhuo looked serious and worried.
Xie Anjun walked over and closed the door. He was stunned when he heard the words, "What's wrong?"
Fan Chengzhuo is usually calm, but this is the first time he has shown such an expression.
"What have you been caught doing wrong again?"
"It's not me!"
Xie Anjun frowned.
"It's Zheng Baosu!"
"Your cousin? What happened to him?" Xie Anjun began to wonder, "Could it be that he lost the battle?"
"That would be great!"
Fan Chengzhuo felt that he had never been so embarrassed. Even when he was demoted, he never lost confidence.
He always believed that he was just down and out for a while, and when he got the chance in the future, he would be able to turn things around again!
Can--
"At today's court meeting, Miao Sheng reported him!"
Fan Chengzhuo quickly recounted what happened at court today. The more he spoke, the uglier Xie Anjun's expression became.
After hearing the last part, he couldn't help but slapped the table and stood up angrily.
"He's really crazy!"
Xie Anjun quickly came to Fan Chengzhuo, stared at him, lowered his voice and asked sternly,
"What did you tell me before!? Didn't you promise me that he would never have anything to do with Master Wa again? Now that things have turned out like this, how do you explain it?"
Fan Chengzhuo was also very annoyed. Being forced to question him like this, he was furious for a moment.
"I have repeatedly reminded him! He also promised! But who knew that it would be such a coincidence! Miao Sheng found out! He directly reported it to His Majesty, what can I do!?"
He became more and more angry as he spoke, and couldn't help but mock him.
"And you! Who told me before that if there was any disturbance in the court, I would definitely get the news early - and now it's been exposed! Where's the news? If I hadn't come, you wouldn't know when you would have heard it!"
"you!"
Xie Anjun choked, but couldn't say anything to refute.
He suppressed his anger and paced back and forth, the more he thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
"How could this happen? Miao Sheng didn't reveal any news before!"
Ever since he inherited the title, he had always felt that his life would be much better.
Among all the officials in the court, who wouldn't give him face when they see him?
Even though he has no military power and his reputation is not as good as the old marquis, he is now the head of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion!
Now that he occupies this position, he is naturally different from before!
Xie Anjun indeed had an overly good opinion of himself, so much so that when he was suddenly hit by this blow, he was completely stunned.
Fan Chengzhuo looked at him and sneered in his heart.
Outsiders said that although Xie Anjun could not practice martial arts, he was a good writer and was a man of great talent.
But if you get in touch with him a few more times, you will find out that he is really an idiot!
"Don't you think that once you get rid of your brother, everything will be fine? The situation in the court is treacherous and unpredictable. If you are not careful, you will fall to pieces!"
The disdain in Fan Chengzhuo's eyes was almost hard to hide.
"I think you've been living too leisurely and comfortable lately. You almost forgot who you are!"
Xie Anjun looked unhappy.
During this period, he used the excuse of mourning to hardly care about external affairs, and spent the whole day having fun in the mansion, which was indeed very refreshing.
No one in the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's mansion dared to disobey him in the slightest.
After a long time, he really lost himself in thought.
It is precisely because of this that Fan Chengzhuo’s words are so heartbreaking.
"It's not your turn to teach me what to do." Xie Anjun gritted his teeth, "The most urgent thing is to make sure Zheng Baosu doesn't involve you and me!"
Fan Chengzhuo sneered, "I'm afraid the imperial edict has already left the capital by now. Can you stop it?"
"How can you stop the imperial decree? Are you crazy?"
Xie Anjun was so angry that his chest felt stuffy.
"The only solution now is to prevent Zheng Baosu from entering the capital!"
Fan Chengzhuo's expression changed, and a cold look appeared in his eyes. "What do you mean?"
"Literally!" Xie Anjun frowned and pondered, his tone resolute, "As long as he dies outside, we won't be able to investigate further! Even if Miao Sheng and the others find out that it was you and I who jointly recommended him to that place, without evidence, they can't do anything to us! In this way-"
"no!"
Fan Chengzhuo immediately voiced his objection.
Xie Anjun was stunned, a little bit unbelievable, "Fan Chengzhuo, you are not reluctant to let him go, are you? You should understand! If he comes back alive, we will both be dead! The crime of collaborating with the enemy - neither you nor I can bear it!"
Fan Chengzhuo remained firm, "No way! I don't agree with this method!"
Xie Anjun looked at him with amusement.
"What are you talking about? Fan Chengzhuo, you must have remembered that it was you and Zheng Baosu who insisted on dragging me into this, right? I told you at that time that you can make money, but you can't have other ideas. It was him! He was greedy! He was the one who secretly resold those weapons to Master Wa——"
"You also got what you wanted, didn't you?" Fan Chengzhuo suddenly asked back in a cold voice.
Xie Anjun fell silent.
Fan Chengzhuo sneered.
"Half of that money is in your hands. Don't you acknowledge it?"
Xie Anjun became anxious.
"I took all that money--"
"You used it to win people's hearts, didn't you?"
Fan Chengzhuo narrowed his eyes.
"You want to inherit your father's military power, but you can only think of this method. Xie Anjun, have you ever thought about whether any of those who follow you really obey you?"
