Fang Zheng Cons for Money and Love

"I once naively thought that after living together for so long, we could eventually become family, but only now do I understand..."

"We were never meant to be, I've just been forcing it... In the end, my true heart was misplaced!" Having said this, Fang Zheng let out a long sigh, filled with endless regret!

Bai Yi was now completely lost, tears streaming down her face.

She never imagined that Fang Zheng had known her identity all along and had been covering for her!

Yet she had only been thinking about revenge...

Scene after scene of Fang Zheng's kindness toward her flashed through her mind.

In an instant, she had successfully transitioned from mental chaos to a heart-wrenching state. Looking at Fang Zheng through her tears, she sobbed an explanation: "I... I didn't want... to implicate... you all. I would... wear a mask... then kill myself..."

Fang Zheng's face suddenly dropped, though it returned to normal in an instant.

I knew it! You damned girl, you really were planning to assassinate the emperor!

Fortunately, she had no experience, too green!

Seeing Bai Yi crying uncontrollably, Fang Zheng quickly embraced her, continuously patting her back. He said softly: "Don't rush... it's good I discovered it early, before you did something foolish!"

"Now, we should be honest with each other. What is your true identity... is your name real?"

"I am... the third princess of Great Qian... Shui Yibai..." Shui Yibai buried her head in Fang Zheng's embrace, continuously sobbing.

Fang Zheng was stunned, his breathing becoming more rapid.

He had guessed she was a princess, but there was something different about hearing it from her own lips.

If he brought Miaohan home in the future, wouldn't there be two princesses in the house?

Things suddenly seemed to get exciting!

Fang Zheng steadied her body, seeing her crying with tears and mucus. He reached out to gently wipe the tears and mucus from her face.

Then, unbeknownst to her, he wiped his hand on her shoulder.

"Don't cry anymore, Xiao Bai. I still have questions for you!"

"My... name... is... three... characters..."

"............"

She's young, probably didn't experience much before her country fell and her family was destroyed!

Her mind is indeed simple. At a time like this, she's still concerned about such trivial matters. Fang Zheng sighed inwardly.

"Yibai, I ask you, is the Water God Sect related to you?"

"Yes, there is no Water God Sect now." Shui Yibai nodded, her emotions gradually calming.

But thinking about how she had impulsively confessed everything, her heart began to pound violently again.

Fang Zheng looked directly at Shui Yibai: "The Crown Prince is often by my side, as you must know. Why didn't you target him?"

Shui Yibai swallowed bitterly, somewhat regretful of her impulsive confession, but having already admitted everything, she could only continue: "He is your friend. Revenge has its targets. I didn't want to cause trouble for you."

Hearing this, Fang Zheng couldn't help but feel touched.

"How did Xiao Tao discover me? We clearly shook her off?"

Now more composed, Shui Yibai finally asked the question that had been bothering her.

Fang Zheng was taken aback by this question, then sighed: "Some things once used, can never be the same again!"

He hadn't expected Xiao Tao to capture Shui Yibai so quickly.

But he was even more surprised by how simple the method was!

Shui Yibai was extremely particular about her quality of life, something no one in the Fang mansion knew better than Xiao Tao.

Since Shui Yibai's purpose had been exposed, and she couldn't leave the capital, she could only prepare for a long-term stay.

Naturally, her living arrangements would need to be adjusted accordingly.

And for Shui Yibai, the biggest change in her life since coming to the Fang mansion was one thing!

The toilet!

Due to Fang Zheng's obsessive requirements for toilets, every toilet in the Fang mansion could be described as the height of luxury! Even more lavish than bedrooms or studies.

All tiled with porcelain, glass lampshades, lit twenty-four hours a day!

Bookshelves! Toys! Newspapers, all provided!

Fresh flowers, incense, and soft white toilet paper, everything available!

Such extravagant decoration couldn't be found even in imperial palaces around the world!

Under his influence, greetings in Banshan District had even temporarily changed to, "Have you relieved yourself? You?"

Having grown accustomed to using a toilet with such luxurious facilities, it would be difficult to adjust elsewhere!

In her new home, renovations couldn't be changed in the short term, but at least she needed a toilet!

Although Shui Yibai didn't understand the complex work beneath a toilet... that didn't stop her from sending people to the city to custom order a toilet!

Since the high-quality clay for firing porcelain was mostly found in the south, the imperial kilns were also in the south.

Northern ceramic kilns were relatively few in number!

But there was one in the capital! And that kiln had a specialized shop selling ceramics in the capital!

When they first moved to the capital, the road to Taoyuan County wasn't good. Taoyuan County had toilets, but transportation was troublesome.

Xiao Tao had arranged everything herself. All the toilets in the Fang mansion were custom-made at that shop!

So she suspected Bai Yi would go purchase some necessities, and immediately arranged for people to stake out that specialized ceramic shop.

Sure enough, in less than a day, Shui Yibai's hiding place was discovered, leaving her still confused!

"What... does that mean?" Shui Yibai stammered, clearly not understanding which step had gone wrong.

Fang Zheng didn't want to dwell on it and directly asked: "Don't worry about those details. I want to ask what you're thinking now? What will you do in the future?"

"I... I've been captured by you... will you let me go?" Shui Yibai lowered her head, her heart bitter.

The path ahead held nothing but confusion and despair!

Fang Zheng would never let her take revenge, so what was the point of asking these questions now?

The next moment, Shui Yibai felt her arms gripped tightly. Looking up, she saw Fang Zheng's face full of sincerity.

"Of course I won't let you go! How could I let you go?! Would you have me watch you walk to your death?"

Shui Yibai was stunned again, feeling a wave of emotion. So I'm this important?

"Although you're stupid and clumsy and can't do anything right, we are family!"

"Young Master..."

"Enough! No need to say more. Though you've made a mistake, if I don't help you, who can? Now I can only do my best to protect your safety!"

"Young Master..." Shui Yibai felt increasingly moved, her body swaying slightly.

Fang Zheng reached out and pulled her directly into his embrace.

Fragrant softness in his arms, Fang Zheng gave a lecherous smile. The food at home was certainly good... she had grown!

Shui Yibai's face turned crimson. Being bound, she could only press her head against Fang Zheng's chest, her eyes tightly closed.

An indescribable feeling surged up within her.

Fang Zheng said in a low voice: "I've brought Qian Desheng back to the mansion. You made too much noise on the street, and the North City Garrison discovered your movements."

"The only plan now is for Qian Desheng to hand over all his property, including real estate, so I can help him dispose of it all."

"I'll spend my own money to help you bribe officials high and low. In the future, you'll have normal identities to move about in the capital."

"Although these matters are very difficult, don't worry, Young Master will arrange everything for you, giving you a bright future!"

"I'll take you to see Qian Desheng soon. If he doesn't listen, you'll have to convince him, understand?"

"Mm." Shui Yibai leaned in Fang Zheng's embrace, responding softly.

Hearing her agreement, Fang Zheng released her, gently placing Shui Yibai on the bed, saying quietly: "Wait here for me. I'll bring you to see him soon."

Shui Yibai obediently nodded twice, feeling a bit dizzy in the head.

Fang Zheng smiled, turned, and left.

Reaching the main hall, he immediately called loudly: "Xiao Tao! Where have you gone?!"

Xiao Tao hurriedly ran out from a side room: "I'm here, what is it, Young Master?"

"Xiao Bai... she's the third princess of Qian!" Fang Zheng said mysteriously.

"What! Young Master, you're not lying to me?!" Xiao Tao immediately covered her mouth in surprise.

To think a princess would be her maid!

This... this is too exciting!!

"Stop wasting time! Quickly prepare two servitude contracts for me!"
