Chapter 75: Yi Fan was arrested

The Spring Festival is one of the most important festivals of the Chinese nation.

Chang'an City was hilarious. Every household was filled with smoke. Over Chang'an City, the laughter and joy of the people echoed, as well as blessings and expectations for the coming year. Most importantly, the sky was filled with various delicious aromas, which made people salivate.

On New Year’s Eve, the most important thing is of course the family reunion and have a New Year’s Eve dinner.

In heaven and earth, the whole family can be said to be a mobilization to make dumplings.

Yang Guo held a kitchen knife in one hand and quickly chopped the filling on the chopping board. The rest of the people washed vegetables, the noodles were made, and the dumplings were made.

When Yi Fan suggested that he would eat dumplings tonight, everyone was surprised.

Wu Meiniang was surprised and said, "Little Langjun, aren't these dumplings eaten during the winter solstice? Why should I eat them today?"

Yi Fan still knows that eating dumplings on the Winter Solstice, but shouldn’t you eat dumplings even on New Year’s Eve?

When Yi Fan asked this question that he took for granted, he looked at him with a strange look.

"Young man, these dumplings were created by Zhang Zhongjing, a medical saint at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, to cure frozen ears. Therefore, people eat dumplings on the first day of winter, on the winter solstice, to prevent frozen ears. When will it become a must-eat item on New Year's Eve?"

Yi Fan scratched his head awkwardly and thought to himself: "It seems that eating dumplings during the Chinese New Year is not popular in the Tang Dynasty."

When Yi Fan saw Wu Meiniang looking at him with strange eyes, he was a little angry and embarrassed and said, "From the future, my Yi family must eat dumplings during the Chinese New Year, this is the family rule."

When Wu Meiniang saw Yi Fan's appearance at this time and his words, she couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"Haha...Little Langjun, how can you do this as you do, you can customize your family rules like this."

Yi Fan ignored the somewhat proud Wu Meiniang and forced Yang Guo and others to prepare for the dumplings. This led to the fact that the whole family made dumplings.

The whole family happily finished the New Year’s Eve dinner.

After the meal, when the endgame was cleaned up, Yi Fan said to Yi Feng: "Take out the things!"

Yi Fan agreed excitedly and called Yi Chengfeng, Yi Polang and the other two ran out together.

Everyone was wondering when they saw the three of them coming back, holding a box in their hands.

Yi Fan walked over and opened the box. Everyone saw that there were new clothes neatly stacked in the box.

Yi Fan picked up the snow-white shirt on the top, and the collar and cuffs were set against the contrast of snow-white marten fur.

He handed it to Wu Meiniang and said, "This is for you. How can you not have new clothes during the Chinese New Year?"

Wu Meiniang took the clothes and felt that it was soft and comfortable. It was even more delicate than the cotton coat, and a faint fragrance came from the tip of her nose.

"Little Langjun, is this a new cotton coat?"

Yi Fan raised his index finger and shook it: "No, this is a down jacket."

Yi Feng, who was standing beside him, said with some excellence: "It is made of the fluffs that I bought from Chengfeng and Polang some time ago. We also smoked them with spices. Sister Mei Niang, you can smell them, and there is still a fragrance."

Wu Meiniang nodded to show her awareness.

Yi Fan sent the down jackets to everyone one by one and said: This down jacket is unique to our Yi family. There is no curfew tonight, so everyone can go out to show off and play."

Yi Fan took out a bunch of red envelopes and began to send New Year's money one by one. Even the two rough men, the eighth and the nineth, Yi Fan also sent it.

Lao Ba blushed and said, "Boss, isn't this suitable? We are both so old, so how can we still have the face to get New Year's money? If you tell me, you won't be laughed to death."

Yi Fan thought about it and said, "This is what I would like to reward you for the wages."

After paying the New Year's money, Yi Fan asked the whole family to find a place to play. Yi Fan knew that he was by his side and these kids couldn't play, so he simply let them play on their own.

Yi Fan is preparing to watch Li Shimin's political performance show tonight. Yi Fan received news that Li Shimin will celebrate New Year's Eve with the victims in Chang'an City tonight.

Tonight, Li Shimin should have had a great banquet for the ministers, but he changed the location to Zhuque Street, allowing all officials to sit together with the victims.

Yi Fan wanted to travel with Mei, but Wu Meiniang said that she wanted to buy some things from her daughter's house with Chunhua and Qiuyue.

Yi Fan had to take Jing Li out of the heaven and earth. The two of them had been strolling for a long time and were about to go to Zhuque Street when they saw a man running towards them in a very embarrassing manner.

I heard the man shouting to Yi Fan while running: "Go away quickly."

Yi Fan looked closely and saw that the person coming was Qian Kuan from the Weiyuan Escort Agency. Qian Kuan rushed to the front and said anxiously: "Go away quickly."

Seeing Qian Kuan like this, Yi Fan was puzzled and asked, "Mr. Qian, what happened? Why did you let me go?"

Qian Kuan took a quick breath and said, "The boss, the Chang'an County Magistrate led people to surround the Weiyuan Escort Agency. I happened to be not in the escort agency at that time, so I came to report to you.

I also heard from the county magistrate that as long as the escort agency is controlled, you will lose your minions. It will be easy to catch you. The boss will leave quickly, maybe they are already on the way."

Cui Bao's voice suddenly came: "Haha, I want to leave? I'm afraid it's too late."

A group of officers and soldiers suddenly appeared in the crowd, surrounding Yi Fan and the other two.

Cui Bao looked at Yi Fan arrogantly and ordered seriously: "Yi Fan made private weapons, and his subordinates gathered more than 400 people, intending to rebel. Now take them down for me. Those who resist will be killed without mercy."

Jing Li turned his hand and showed his dagger, and Yi Fan also secretly buckled the crossbow. Jing Li looked at Yi Fan and whispered: "I can protect you and fight out, this will definitely attract more officers and soldiers, and we will undoubtedly die at that time."

Qian Kuan was so scared that he collapsed on the ground. He regretted coming to report to Yi Fan.

The reason why Qian Kuan came to report the news was because he heard that Yi Fan had a close relationship with the King of Wu. According to his guess, as long as the King of Wu came forward, Yi Fan would be safe this time. What he did not expect was that Cui Bao would give Yi Fanan a charge of intention to rebel, so that the possibility of the King of Wu coming forward would become slim.

Yi Fan shook his head at Jing Li. After all, this place was Chang'an City. If he dared to attack the officers and soldiers, then the name of rebellion would be confirmed.

Besides, he wrote a letter to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin also allowed him to expand the number of people to 500. It seems that Cui Bao didn't know about this.

Yi Fan looked at Cui Bao coldly and asked, "How is my person now?"

"Haha" Cui Bao laughed and said, "Don't worry, the boy named Yi Zhongtian you adopted is not bad. He stopped your subordinates who wanted to resist and let me take down the entire escort agency without any effort. Now they are all in the prison."

Yi Fan felt relieved. As long as there was no conflict, there would be a place of change. If this was not Chang'an City, Yi Fan wouldn't mind having a fight with Cui Bao.

Yi Fan and the other two were naturally taken away.

When the onlookers saw the officers and soldiers walking away, someone said, "Is that person a little god just now? Ye is too dark, I can't see the old man very clearly."

One hundred people said that it seemed like a little god. I heard from the county magistrate just now that the little god opened a escort agency a few days ago, somehow he had rebelled."

The old man who asked before heard the 'Oh' and said, "It's really a little god! Old man, I don't care about any treason or treason. My old life is saved by the little god. I have to go to the county government to check it out."
