Enter Chang Xiangsi and help Jingzhai fight

He smiled and whispered, "Your elder brother is asleep."

I asked him in a trembling voice: "Did you kill him?!"

He blinked and smiled, "How could that be? It's very expensive for me to kill someone."

I asked him, "Are you here to kill me?"

He shook his finger: "Not necessarily. First, you have to tell me, who are you?"

I didn't answer, but lit a candle next to me and asked him, "Who are you?"

He narrowed his eyes: "You just say it when I say it?"

I stood up and said, "If you tell the truth, I will tell the truth."

He sheathed his sword and pulled off his mask.

I was shocked and said, “Ali?!”

He nodded and said, "It's me. My name is Gui Fangduan."

I was shocked. He was actually from the most mysterious Guifang clan among the four major families? !

He tilted his head and smiled: "It's your turn."

I was speechless for a moment. I didn't know how much he knew. What identity should I use to face him? Ruiyang? Yu Sulan? Lanxiang? Or...?

Seeing that I didn't say anything, he stopped smiling and said, "We agreed on this."

I hurriedly replied, "I'll tell you, I'm really surprised! I'm Ruiyang, serving Master Bai. We met at Wanfeng Manor."

He raised his chin: "You look like that, but you're not like that on the inside."

I didn't know how he saw through me, and I was afraid of making more mistakes if I said more, so I could only stare at him with my eyes blinking.

He then asked, "You are not Xiangliu?"

I waved my hands repeatedly: "No, no! I'm not Xiang Liu! If you follow me, you will see me appearing with him, so I am definitely not him."

He sighed, "It's a pity that I came too late and didn't see it."

I asked, "When did you catch up with us?"

He smiled and said, "When it comes to 'Once you meet Yang Guo, your life will be ruined'."

I didn't expect that he also listened to half of the story and was speechless for a moment.

He sat cross-legged, holding his chin and said, "A few days ago, someone paid our family to rob the Tushan family's carriage. My third uncle took it and sent my uncle to rob it. My uncle robbed it lightly, but he didn't expect that all he robbed were scrap copper, iron, stones and tiles, and he was left with a lot of treasures from the Tushan family, gold and silver, and so much reputation debt. My third uncle was furious and sent me to find out where the goods were transported. I followed the trail and found you, but I heard someone telling a story. I thought, I know someone who loves to tell stories..."

He looked up at me and continued, "Is it you? If it's you, it's better not to kill you."

My legs felt a little weak, so I slid down to sit down, calmed myself, and replied, "It's me... so it's best if you don't do anything. And what exactly does your Guifang family do?" It was not mentioned in the novel or the drama. I knew nothing about the Guifang family, so I had no idea how to convince him.

He smiled, his eyes shining brighter in the candlelight: "The Tushan family does business, and so do we. It's just that they sell goods, while we mostly trade people. One hand pays money, the other hand hands over people's heads. Or kidnapping and robbing goods is not a problem."

I shuddered and asked, "So, is your mission today to take back Xiangliu's people - the snakehead?"

He laughed loudly, not afraid of waking up the people next door. "Hahaha! You are really funny! That's not the case. I'm just asking. If you are Xiangliu's transformation, I probably can't beat you. If you can't beat you, just run away and come back another day."

I sighed: "If that's not the case, then it's easy to say."

He asked curiously, "What do you mean?"

I thought that the contradiction was not irreconcilable, so I could use my eloquence to brainwash them. But I couldn't say it directly, so I just asked tentatively: "Of course, there is a mystery. Let me ask you, aren't you afraid of revenge by doing business like this?"

He replied: "Don't worry, because the enemy will most likely not be able to find us, and even if they do, they won't be able to defeat us. It would be better to work hard to save some silver, and then buy us back to take revenge, which would be faster."

I secretly took note. The Guifang family is powerful and secretive. It seems that they are not afraid of revenge. They are paid to do things, so I think they are not short of money. Those people in Wanfeng Village, old and young, I am afraid there is no room for the honey trap. For such a noble family, the only remaining worries are probably...

I cleared my throat and asked again, "So, who will be the head of your family? Have you chosen the next head of the family?"

As expected, he stopped smiling and asked cautiously, "Why are you asking this?"

I saw that there was a play, so I put on an unfathomable expression: "Of course I have my reasons. To be honest, although I am not very old, I have had many adventures before, I am knowledgeable, and I can write and calculate. Otherwise, where do you think all my stories come from? You and I have met by chance a few times, and we are quite predestined. We treat each other kindly. I saw that you warned us not to go to dangerous places before, so you are a good person. So I want to help you analyze and see if you are about to make a mistake. Don't take the wrong order and offend people, and end up with a tragic end of ruining your family and killing people!"

He frowned and remained silent, thinking silently.

Seeing that he was a little relieved, I continued, "As the old saying goes: Pride brings harm, humility brings benefit. Although your Guifang family has strong spiritual power and excellent martial arts, those who can afford you are naturally rich and powerful. If you stand on the wrong side and get involved in a dispute, even if you are a famous Guifang family, you will not be able to escape. If you don't believe me, look at Chenrong. Such a big country, it fell into decline in the blink of an eye. Is your Guifang family more powerful than Chenrong?"

He opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in them, and looked at me and said, "Grandma is the head of the family now, but she is old and intends to pass the position of head of the family down. I am grandma's only grandson, and the family has not yet decided whether to pass it down to me or to my uncle from my third uncle's family."

I slammed my palm and said, "That's it! That's it! Look, this is a time of great trouble. What you do will determine your future and the future of the Guifang family! You must be careful. Let me ask you, who paid you to do this?"

He shook his head: "According to the clan's rules, we cannot reveal the customer's name."

I smiled and said, "Okay! Then let me guess. But where is Xuanyuan's Xuanxuan?"

He was a little surprised and didn't say anything, but his eyes betrayed his heart.

I also shook my head: "Tsk, tsk, tsk, this is difficult! Think about it, who is Xuanxuan? He is a prince who lives in Gaoxin and his heart belongs to Xuanyuan! Which prince doesn't want to be emperor? If he succeeds, you will be considered as a sword that has made meritorious deeds, but can you be sure that he will not cross the river and destroy the bridge, wiping out the past so that future generations will not know his cruelty? If he fails, it will offend his enemies. Can you deal with so many forces?"

Gui Fangduan sneered: "Then, are you expecting me to go back empty-handed just by talking nonsense like this?"
