Chapter 237 Jizhou Fan Clan
Chapter 237: Fan Family in Jizhou
On that day, Feng Sha and Zhao Yun led the Zhao family's private soldiers to kill Chunyu Qiong, plundered the Zhending treasury at night, and left with Fan Susu and Xiaoman. The people of Jizhou were unaware of the inside story. They only thought that Zhao Mo, the eldest son of the Zhao family, avenged his brother, sued King Wuwei of Luoyang, and took his family to rob Zhending, killed the beloved general of the Grand Marshal Yuan Shao, and took his family with him to take a detour to Luoyang to the west of the Great Wall.
When Yuan Shao heard this, he was furious and asked someone to seal off all the property of the Zhao family and seize his land. However, the house was gone and the army came, and no money was found. He only occupied the Zhao family's ancestral house and land, and even the Zhao family's tenant farmers were caught.
Because the Fan family had just got married to the Zhao family, they were also implicated by the Zhao family. Yuan Shao was furious and wanted to uproot the Fan family's power, but the Fan family was prosperous, with thousands of hectares of fertile land and countless tenant farmers. The family soldiers alone could gather tens of thousands of people among the tenant farmers at any time, and they also had good friends with the big families in Jizhou. Compared with the Zhao family's weak power, Yuan Shao did not dare to move the Fan family for a while, so as not to cause dissatisfaction with the Jizhou family and endanger his rule.
The head of the Fan family, even Fan Susu's father, was angry when he saw his son-in-law doing this, and he had no choice but to send someone to plead with Yuan Shao's confidant generals and gave him a large number of heavy gifts. Finally, he bought a safe and sound.
Although the matter was gone, the whereabouts of his daughter were no longer known. The Fan family also sent people to Luoyang to find out the news, but said that the eldest son had not come to Luoyang with the tens of thousands of Zhending people, but followed King Wuwei to another place. The truth was the case, and there were different opinions on the Fan family. There were no doubts about who should believe in, and there was a lot of worry in the whole family.
Fan Susu is gentle in character and has always been favored by her parents. Even a man as old-fashioned as her father, she likes her daughter quite much. Now that her daughter has been abducted by her son-in-law, she has no idea whereabouts. The two old parents sighed, restless, and their hair is really much white.
Suddenly one night, a man in black jumped off the beam of the house and knelt in front of the two elders' bed.
The two old men woke up and saw the man in black wearing a steel knife in his back and his face covered with a black cloth. Although he was a little surprised, he was not panicked and asked him in a deep voice who he was.
The man in black reported to his family, saying that he was sent by King Wuwei and came from Qingzhou, bringing news about Miss Fan.
The two elders were both surprised and happy. They took the letter from him. It turned out to be written by the King Wuwei, who was powerful, controlled the Luoyang court, and led the governor of Qingzhou. The letter was very respectful and explained the causes and consequences in detail. He said that he wanted to marry Fan Susu as his wife, and asked the two old men to understand, and he would definitely hold the etiquette of his son and nephew and respect the two old men.
When Mr. Fan saw the letter, he was furious and denounced the King of Wuwei to act absurdly and pretended to be his son-in-law to come and cheat his marriage and wanted to recognize him as his son-in-law unless the sun came out of the west!
Fortunately, Fan Susu's mother was very wise and tried hard to persuade him, saying that the hero of King Wuwei was great and did not humiliate his daughter, and he also held heavy troops. In this chaotic world, he had military power, which was the guarantee of protecting his family and life. However, he was confronting each other with Yuan Shao, the governor of Jizhou, and he must not leak this matter, so as not to attract Yuan Shao's revenge.
Mr. Fan sighed to the sky, and unexpectedly, his son-in-law turned from a talented man in Zhao to the king with the most authority today. The dispute between the governor of Qingzhou and the governor of Jizhou would involve his family. It is really strange to think about it.
After thinking about it, it would be useless for Mr. Fan to know that he did not recognize this son-in-law. With his daughter by his side, it would be difficult for him to escape from Qingzhou to go home. Besides, he was not unaware of the children's thoughts. At this moment, he was afraid that even if he went to pick up his daughter, his daughter might not be willing to go home.
Thinking of his daughter's well-behaved and cute appearance, Mr. Fan had no choice but to recognize her daughter anymore. Therefore, he had to sigh and ask the master at home to write a letter, helplessly admitting his son-in-law who flew out of the sky. He just hoped that one day he would let his daughter go home and take a look, and that would be fine.
In order to prevent the incident from leaking, Mr. Fan had to order his eldest son Fan Rong to take a letter to Qingzhou, and at the same time led hundreds of guards to avoid accidents on the way.
After receiving the order from his father, Fan Rong did not dare to neglect, so he hurriedly brought a large group of people and horses, equipped in an orderly manner, and headed towards Qingzhou. He traveled all the way to night and came to Linzi City. Suddenly, he heard the news that King Wuwei got married again. The marriage partner was actually a large-scale lady of the Xianbei clan. Her brother, who had just been named the Xianbei General and commanded the Xianbei Central Committee, had thousands of cavalry under his command, and his family background was not worse than his own.
Fan Rong was shocked when he heard this, fearing that his sister would be bullied, so he wanted to go to the city to meet King Wuwei that night. On the surface, it was to congratulate her, but in fact it was to support her sister, so that the Xianbei people would not dare to bully her.
Unexpectedly, Linzi City closed early and locked Fan Rong outside. Fan Rong sent someone to come forward and shouted, begging them to open the door and let him in. However, the soldiers were tightly controlled by Zhang Liao and did not dare to open the door, so as not to be invaded by the bandits taking advantage of the siege and dared not even ask for his heavy bribe.
Fan Rong couldn't, so he had to stay outside the city for one night. He had just gotten into the city this morning. As soon as he packed his luggage, he saw a heroic young man riding on a horse and said that he wanted to see him.
Seeing that he was so majestic that he did not dare to neglect, Fan Rong hurriedly went in to report. However, when he heard that he claimed to be General Jianwei, Governor of Qingzhou, and King Wuwei Liu Sha, he was shocked.
Fan Rong looked at him carefully and saw that he was very young and not much older than him. He was shocked and suspicious, and he couldn't believe it for a moment. He saw that he was tall and amazing, and he was powerful without anger. The strong kingly style was heartbroken. He also looked brave and brave. He rode a tall black horse and grew a heavy Fangtian painting halberd, which was almost the same as the rumored King Wuwei. Moreover, outside Linzi City, there might not be anyone who dared to pretend to be King Wuwei. Fan Rong believed that it was King Wuwei who came to worship in person, and hurriedly bowed and greeted King Wuwei.
King Wuwei did not dare to accept his courtesy, so he quickly supported him and comforted him with kind words. He comforted him with great pains and thanked him for visiting him deeply, and said that Fan Susu must be very happy.
When Fan Rong saw that King Wuwei was approachable, he was happy. He thought that his sister would not be beaten or scolded when he married him. Moreover, this person's authority was more important than the world. If this person led the army in the Luoyang court and attacked the Qingzhou army on both sides and wiped out the princes of Guandong, his family would be extremely prominent. In Jizhou, the Fan family was the leading family. If he had a good relationship with him, he would definitely rise to the top and his future was unlimited. Even if he was a marquis and general in the court, he would be ranked as the third duke, which was unknown. Therefore, he was flattered and the two got along very well.
Feng Sha talked and laughed for a while, then took him, rode on two fast horses, and drove all the way to Qingzhou Muslim Mansion.
On the way, Fan Rong saw him handing over his dark horse to his subordinates to guard him. He changed to an ordinary horse, put down his face armor and covered his face. He was confused. After thinking for a while, he suddenly realized that he was afraid that he would be with him and be known to cause disaster to the Fan family. He couldn't help but feel it. Thinking of having such a careful man to accompany his younger sister, the younger sister's blessing was quite good.
King Wuwei was the world's number one figure. He was willing to give in this kind of fortune and thought about the Fan family everywhere. It must be because he favored his younger sister and looked up to him. Thinking of this, Fan Rong was overjoyed and secretly decided to persuade his father to call on the Jizhou clan to stand on the side of King Wuwei and try to help him eliminate Yuan Shao and his gang. At that time, with this contribution, the younger sister would definitely be more favored by King Wuwei. If he could give birth to a child, he would be made the crown prince with the full support of the Fan family, which had become more powerful. I am afraid that the grandson of the Fan family will have a share of the emperor!
He had a dream all the way, galloping behind King Wuwei into the city, came to Qingzhou Mushi, got off his horse, and saw the soldiers guarding the tall mansion respectfully kowtowed to King Wuwei, and then he felt completely relieved and knew that the person in front of him was not a liar, but the real King Wuwei.
King Wuwei went in for a while and brought her sister out. Seeing that her sister's face was rosy, her eyebrows and eyes were open, she was a little more beautiful than before, and she had a bit of mature charm. She couldn't help but feel secretly happy. Knowing that King Wuwei's pampered her sister, she would make her live such a good life, and she was a little more plump than her weak appearance before.
When the brother and sister reunited, there was endless things to say. Fan Rong told the situation at home that Fan Susu did not have to worry about it. As long as she served King Wuwei well, her relatives at home would naturally feel at ease when they knew she was safe and happy.
As Fan Rong spoke, he suddenly saw Xiaoman sitting aside, wearing a new red dress. He couldn't help but frown slightly, secretly blaming this little maid for being rude and relying on the power of the Xianbei people, she dared to be on an equal footing with him.
When Xiaoman saw him looking at him, he remembered that when he was a slave in the Fan family, the eldest son was a little stupid, but he was very nice to his servants and was very good to him. He never scolded his servants and often gave him rewards. He hurriedly stepped forward to see him and said respectfully: "Young Master, I am polite!"
Fan Susu hurriedly stepped forward and helped her up, angrily: "Xiaoman, what are you doing? Now you are not in real concentration. Don't call yourself a slave anymore!"
Fan Rong was surprised and asked, "Xiaoman, are you okay here?"
Xiaoman nodded quickly and said, "Young Master Cheng asked, I have always been taken care of by the lady and I am doing well."
