Chapter 253 Making a Game
After the doctor left, Ding Liang looked at the unconscious Lu Zhiran. Her face was as pure as white jade, yet a little pale.
Ding Liang stood beside the bed, looking at the woman who had once made his heart beat fast with complicated eyes.
He sighed softly, took out a small porcelain bottle from his sleeve, poured out a few drops of liquid with a faint fragrance, and gently dripped it on Lu Zhiran's lips.
That was a special drug he made, which could put her into a deep sleep temporarily and she wouldn't wake up for a while.
After doing all this, Ding Liang stood up, turned around and left.
He walked out of the room and came to the courtyard and saw Zhang Xiangxiu sitting there.
Seeing Ding Liang finally appear, she showed a hint of dissatisfaction on her face and a bit of unhappiness in her tone.
"Mr. Ding, I understand that you have a beautiful woman in your arms, but you don't have to wait for me to come over and leave me here alone for a long time!"
What's more, if Zhang Xiangxiu hadn't taken action just now, Lu Zhiran would have escaped long ago.
It was inappropriate for Ding Liang to be so neglectful to her both morally and logically.
Ding Liang smiled slightly, walked over and sat on the stone bench.
"Don't be so aggrieved. I have removed Lu Zhiran, the obstacle for you. From now on, you have the final say in the entire Fu Mansion."
Zhang Xiangxiu sneered.
Let’s get straight to the point.
"Tell me, what are you going to do next? I can't hold on to the Fu Mansion for much longer. Fu Yuzhang is getting more and more crazy because he can't find Lu Zhiran for a long time. If it goes on like this, I'm afraid he will report it to the emperor."
Ding Liang: "So, it's time to give him a hook!"
Zhang Xiangxiu frowned in confusion, "What do you mean?"
Ding Liang: "Don't you always want to know how important you are to Fu Yuzhang? Then let him choose between the two and see whether he will choose you or Lu Zhiran in the end."
Zhang Xiangxiu was suddenly shocked.
"What nonsense are you talking about? Fu Yuzhang is in love with Lu Zhiran right now. He will definitely choose Lu Zhiran. Otherwise, why would I cooperate with you?"
Ding Liang didn't care.
"But don't you forget that you gave Fu Yuzhang a jade pendant before? Is Fu Yuzhang really willing to give up the power behind you?"
Ding Liang's words were like a stone thrown into a lake, causing ripples in Zhang Xiangxiu's heart.
She lowered her eyes and carefully considered the feasibility of this proposal.
"You mean, let Fu Yuzhang choose between me and Lu Zhiran?" Zhang Xiangxiu's voice trembled a little. She felt both anticipation and uneasiness in her heart.
Ding Liang nodded, his eyes gleaming with shrewdness, "Yes, only in this way can we see Fu Yuzhang's true intentions."
Zhang Xiangxiu took a deep breath, she knew she had no way out.
Ever since she was brought into Fu Yuzhang's mansion, her fate has been closely tied to this man.
Now, she has to make a decision for her future.
"Okay, I promise you." Zhang Xiangxiu raised her head and looked at Ding Liang firmly, "But how should we do it?"
Ding Liang smiled slightly. He already had a plan in mind. "First, we need to create an opportunity to make Fu Yuzhang mistakenly believe that Lu Zhiran is no longer alive."
Zhang Xiangxiu was stunned. "How is this possible? Although Lu Zhiran is missing, no one saw her die."
Ding Liang shook his head. "We don't need to let her die. We just need to make Fu Yuzhang have this illusion. We can spread some rumors that Lu Zhiran encountered misfortune during her escape."
Zhang Xiangxiu frowned, "Isn't this too risky? What if we get exposed?"
Ding Liang comforted him, "Don't worry, I will make sure everything is perfect. As long as Fu Yuzhang believes these rumors, he will naturally start thinking about his options."
Zhang Xiangxiu was silent for a while, and finally nodded, "Okay, I believe you."
"and then?"
"What should we do next!"
Zhang Xiangxiu asked anxiously.
"And then you'll disappear too. I'll tie both of you to the cliff and force him to choose so that he can only save one of you...hahaha..."
Zhang Xiangxiu's heart was beating wildly.
"But what if Fu Yuzhang chooses Lu Zhiran?"
Ding Liang smiled faintly, "If he chooses Lu Zhiran... there is no such possibility, he can only choose you."
Zhang Xiangxiu looked at Ding Liang's confident look and felt a little more confident.
She knew that from the moment Fu Yuzhang betrayed her, she had no way back and could only move forward bravely.
After discussing with Zhang Xiangxiu what to do next.
Ding Liang returned to the room and looked at Lu Zhiran lying on the bed, feeling at peace.
……
The moonlight was like water, sprinkling on the carved and painted eaves of the Fu Mansion, illuminating the bluestone path in the courtyard, revealing a sense of coolness and loneliness.
Zhang Xiangxiu returned under the moonlight, her face a little tired, but she could not hide the joy between her brows.
As soon as I stepped into the mansion, I heard a roar coming from the direction of the hall. It was Fu Yuzhang's voice. His anger was like a storm, sweeping across the entire mansion.
Zhang Xiangxiu's heart tightened and she couldn't help but quicken her pace.
Fu Yuzhang's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's, and he looked intimidating without even getting angry.
At this moment, he was sitting in the main seat in the hall, his hands clenched into fists, the veins on his forehead bulging, and he was obviously extremely angry.
The servants knelt on the ground, not daring to breathe, for fear of angering the furious young marquis.
Fu Yuzhang's voice echoed in the empty hall, shocking everyone: "You bunch of useless people! My wife has disappeared for so long, and there is not even a trace of news! What's the point of me keeping you!"
Zhang Xiangxiu stood outside the door, took a deep breath, calmed herself down, and then slowly walked into the hall.
She lowered her eyebrows, not daring to look directly into Fu Yuzhang's eyes, and asked softly, "My Lord, is there still no news about the Madam?"
Upon hearing this, Fu Yuzhang was even more furious. He glared at Zhang Xiangxiu and said coldly, "Why are you asking me? If you can find her back, I will naturally reward you handsomely!"
Zhang Xiangxiu's heart trembled. She knew that Fu Yuzhang had deep feelings for Lu Zhiran. Now that Lu Zhiran was missing, one could imagine the anxiety and anger in Fu Yuzhang's heart.
She lowered her eyelids, not daring to say anything more, and just stood there silently.
The atmosphere in the hall was so oppressive that it was hard to breathe, as if even the air had frozen.
At this moment, a servant came running in with a letter in his hand, and said breathlessly, "Master, someone outside brought a letter, saying... it said it was left by the lady."
