The Marquise: I Earn My Own Worship

Chapter 417 A Coincidental Token

"What do you mean by that? Could it be that Fang Youming is here to look for a relative, and that relative is you?"

Zan Lei found it hard to believe that there could be such a coincidence in the world.

"That's right. This might have been destined."

"Then why didn't you come in and answer just now?"

Fan Xuanyu's eyes were red and she looked at Zan Lei with some confusion.

"You're the one who's blocking anyone from entering? I begged the officers and soldiers, but they wouldn't let me in no matter what I said."

Having said that, it seems like a big misunderstanding.

Fang Youming ignored the guesswork and shock in his heart and knelt there to kowtow, but this time it seemed extremely difficult.

It seemed like there was a kind of awkward emotion that he hadn't felt in many years.

"If you don't believe me, you can ask the people present today. I also said at that time that I was here to look for my relatives. Everything is traceable."

General Wang gave a look and someone immediately went out.

"If what you said is a confrontation with this woman, then it's all a misunderstanding."

General Wang had to clean up Zan Lei's mess at this moment. He didn't want to bother with him. But if this matter was not properly resolved, he was afraid that the female students would hold a grudge against him.

Zan Lei didn't appreciate it, he had a feeling something was wrong.

At this point, if he really admitted that it was a misunderstanding, it would first affect his reputation, and he would no longer have any prestige in front of his subordinates.

Secondly, the informant who delivered the message this time was no ordinary person. The information he had obtained from there in the past was always accurate. It was precisely with these that he gradually climbed to the position of deputy general.

He didn't believe that there would be any problems this time.

"Without any evidence, how can you be sure that he is your distant relative?"

When Fan Xuanyu saw Zan Lei looking at her, her slightly drooping eyelids were filled with coldness.

The brother who used to be so high-spirited and proud, now kneels there and can't get up because of this person.

She didn't answer but asked, "May I ask this... Lieutenant General, you just mentioned a token. Was that just a guess or did someone tell you about it?"

Keepsake?!

Zan Lei almost forgot about this thing. "Of course someone saw it and told me. I got the letter here. Someone borrowed the token to pass on information to contact me."

"Then may I ask what this token is? Do you know its characteristics?"

Wow, he actually knew this.

The reason why he was so anxious to search the body just now was to find this token to prove the accuracy of the information.

Once the token is confirmed, he can tie the person up directly.

"A jade pendant inlaid with gold."

Upon hearing this, Dean Liao didn't show any emotion on his face, but his hands in his sleeves tightened slightly. Fang Youming, being the younger man, suddenly had his pupils dilated.

Fortunately, he kept his head down, so no one noticed.

Seeing that Zan Lei was so sure, General Wang did not think about the accuracy of the matter, but was surprised by his methods and became alert.

A light laugh drew their attention back.

Fan Xuanyu spread out his hands, revealing what he had in his hands.

"That person must have not seen it clearly. This thing is not inlaid with gold, but an ordinary jade pendant with amber."

The others looked at the jade pendant in her hand. It was very ingenious. The amber patterns spread all over the tiger's head, making it look like a vivid tiger.

Fang Youming naturally saw it as well, but he was kneeling and only caught a glimpse of it.

But even if it was just a little bit, he still recognized it.

His body trembled slightly, and he tried hard to suppress his emotions so that no one would notice.

"Maybe I saw it wrongly, mistaking amber for gold."

As he spoke, Fan Xuanyu deliberately lifted the rope and showed it half-covered.

"It's possible."

General Wang responded with certainty.

"General, the dean summoned me this morning and told me he wanted to show me something and asked if I knew what it was. He had just taken it out when you arrived."

"When I saw the item, I was deeply moved. However, knowing that the dean was talking to you, I waited patiently. I had planned to wait in the front yard, but I didn't expect to find it. A group of soldiers broke into the house from behind, so I hurried over."

Fan Xuanyu explained and brought the whole process full circle.

What she said was not fabricated. The dean had indeed come to see her, and everyone knew it. She had also indeed gone to the front yard afterwards, and there were people who could testify along the way.

"Hahahahahaha, I didn't expect that Wu Long would actually witness a happy event today."

General Wang glanced at Zan Lei calmly and said, "Look at what you have done, but I still have to clean up your shit."

"President Liao really has a keen eye for talent and connected us online right away."

Zan Lei was a bit sarcastic, pretending not to see the threatening look from General Wang beside him. He didn't understand what General Wang was afraid of. He was a general after all, but he didn't have the aura of a general at all.

They are just two women. Since when have women been able to be the masters of the family?

Look at how cowardly he is.

Zan Lei looked down on General Wang, and naturally looked down on this female school even more, so he was not polite at all in his words.

"Since we are related, we naturally have some similarities. When this person came to me, I felt that he looked familiar. When I learned his purpose, I suddenly understood, so I went to find Xuan Yu."

As he spoke, President Liao pulled Fan Xuanyu and seemed to have just remembered the introduction.

"Oh, I forgot to tell you. Xuan Yu is a child from the Ciyou Hall founded by Madam Duan Hou. After being taken to the manor of the Marquis's manor, she started attending the girls' school when she was old enough. Although she is young, she has learned a lot from her senior sisters. Thanks to them, she has the opportunity to leave her name in history."

Seemingly modest, but actually showing off.

General Wang and Zan Lei looked at each other in bewilderment. They were at the border, and when the war broke out, they had no time to inquire about these things.

Leaving your name in history is no joke.

No one dared to joke.

"Xuan Yu's achievements are all thanks to the cultivation of the women's school."

Fan Xuanyu realized what the dean was thinking and answered accordingly.

She actually wanted to tell it to someone else.

"When the Fang family was exiled, my family was implicated even though we were distant relatives. We eventually settled down in the Marquis's mansion. The old lady of the mansion was kind and allowed us girls of age to study. That's how we achieved what we have today."

General Wang came from a humble background, and his current status is entirely due to his own abilities.

He had been in the army before and had never been to the capital. Hearing the woman constantly mentioning the Marquis' Mansion, he already had a plan in mind.

He is not very smart, but he does one thing very well, which is that he never makes enemies or causes conflicts with others.

This can be seen from the fact that he took over Mu's City. Although two people were placed around him, he didn't care at all.

He exerted all his strength and means on the battlefield.

As for Zan Lei, there is no need to mention it.

The highest-ranking official I've ever met is the general, so naturally I haven't met any more important people.

What he cares about most is leaving a name in history. What kind of person can leave a name in history?

He thought that perhaps after the war was won, this battle and those generals would be recorded in history.

For young players like them, the chances are slim.

Another feeling of resentment began to surge in his heart.
