Chapter 107: Seven Days

The servants and maids from the Fan Mansion heard the will clearly, and felt a thunder slashing down ruthlessly and cruelly, and the entire Fan Mansion began to tremble and shake. Everyone kneeling outside the hall turned pale and their hearts were shocked, and they felt uneasy and fear for the young master.

Not only them, including the officials and people in Kyoto, were very clear about the foundation of power in the hands of Lord Xiao Fan. His Majesty's decree to seize the official was cutting off the roots of Lord Xiao Fan. However, when Fan Xian, who was kneeling on the ground, still remained calm when he heard the order, his face remained calm without any shock and sadness, because all this was what he expected. Just as he had been thinking and judging in bed these two days, His Majesty would try to gradually remove the layers of power defenses that covered Fan Xian's body during this period.

After careful calculation, the battle started from meeting Wang Qinian on the way back to Beijing in Dongyi City. In the past ten days, Fan Xian did many rebellious things. The black cavalry roared among the prefectures and counties, which was a big taboo. Moreover, the five hundred black cavalry rushed to more than ten passes in a row, and even a huge crime was committed between the court and the country. In addition, Fan Xian killed the commander of Zhengyangmen when he broke into Kyoto, and stabbed several powerful men on the court to death in front of the eyes of Wan Min...

Every chunk and a chunk are all sins, and they are unforgivable sins in Qinglu. Even if he is Fan Xian, he must pay the price for this matter. His Majesty did not let him go to prison was considered to be lenient enough. However, this kind of lenient cannot calm the discussion and pressure in the civil officialdom. Today, this decree is not only Fan Xian's position as the dean, but also a preliminary explanation for the world and a channel for His Majesty to vent his anger.

As for what kind of decree will be issued in the future, and what kind of blows and losses will Fan Xian suffer, it depends on Fan Xian's response and the news in the officialdom and the people.

Fan Xian stood up dullly and took the imperial edict from Eunuch Dai. He casually handed it to the Qingke behind him to settle it, and did not read it carefully, because the crimes enacted in the imperial edict were very real, and he was not prepared to sue the palace in these aspects.

"Let's have a cup of tea before leaving." Fan Xian looked at Eunuch Dai gently. Eunuch Dai's face was uncontrollable and embarrassed. His ups and downs in the palace over the past few years were actually all because of the young powerful man in front of him. However, today he came to Fan's mansion to read out this order. Eunuch Dai felt a little uncomfortable.

"I have to go back to the palace." Eunuch Dai glanced at Fan Xian with uneasy eyes. His voice trembled slightly, "Your Majesty is just angry for a moment, and it will be fine for a few days."

Fan Xian knew why this guy showed such a look. He smiled, patted his shoulder and said, "Don't think too much. Since Your Majesty has asked you to regain the important mission of promulgation, I believe he believes you."

Eunuch Dai bowed respectfully and was about to leave, but he heard Fan Xian's low voice ringing in his ears: "Is Ruoruo good in the palace?"

The eunuchs and ministers privately conveyed information. This is a big taboo. However, after a little thought, Dai's father did not hesitate at all. He lowered his voice and said, "Ms. Fan is a very good life and often listens to the discussion in the imperial study. Your Majesty treats her very well, so don't worry, sir."

The Fan family is actually considered a genuine member of the Li royal family. In addition, Fan Xian has added favor to Eunuch Dai, so the eunuch did not care about the taboos. He lowered his voice and told him about the situation of Fan Ruoru in the palace these two days.

Fan Xian raised his eyebrows slightly, a little surprised. He could not guess what His Majesty thought, nor did he understand why his sister could appear so detached in the palace, not like a hostage at all.

After the order was completed, Fan Xian turned to the main hall and looked at his wife who had been listening quietly in the back and said softly: "Today is the first wave. I have a lot of trouble on my body. If Your Majesty wants to peel it layer by layer, it will take some time."

Lin Wan'er glanced at him, bit her lower lip gently, and said, "If the name is not right, the words will not go well. Although the position of dean is now empty, Your Majesty will definitely wait for you to enter the palace to apologize, and you will still give this position to you in a few days. But... in the end, the imperial power is boundless. You have lost the position of dean and want to gather the power in the courtyard in these days. I am afraid there are some obstacles."

"Your Majesty also knows this, so he cut off the post in our hospital in the first place." Fan Xian sat down and whispered: "At least for now, he doesn't want the court to be in chaos, so he slowly cuts it, and waits for me to admit guilt and bow his head naturally. But... for so many years, the Supervision Bureau has been under the control of the old lame man. Your Majesty still doesn't understand the tricks. Even if there are many people in the Supervision Bureau who are afraid of the imperial power, in the end there are still more people who do not recognize the will and only recognize the inheritance in the hospital."

"Being under house arrest is like being suicide, both a difficult problem." Fan Xian said: "Your Majesty wants the whole world, even myself, to slowly get used to the days when I lose authority. It will be much easier for me to tossing, so I have to hurry up."

Lin Wan'er frowned. She had never understood. Even if Fan Xian could tear open the big net outside the mansion and contact the members of Qi Nian's group, what problem could be solved by just one meeting?

"My subordinates are all a group of amazing people." Fan Xian saw the doubts in her heart and said calmly: "And they can help me under house arrest and contact a group of even more amazing people."

If Fan Xian forcibly broke through the surveillance network outside the mansion, with his current cultivation level, it would not be very difficult. As he said last night, unless His Majesty himself, it would be difficult to find a few people who could follow him in the country and the world.

However, he had to consider the safety of his subordinates and the lives of those collaborators who were not in Kyoto, so he could not give any opportunity to follow him in the palace, so he could follow the map and clear his true foundation.

The position of director of the Supervision House was taken away, which would not affect Fan Xian's regaining control of the Supervision House through officials who were loyal to him and Chen Pingping. If the court really passed the Fan Xian line and captured all the teams he had been hidden behind the scenes, it would be much more difficult for Fan Xian to connect with those forces that were extremely far away from the temple.

So Fan Xian's actions were very careful, and his carefulness was shown to the world. However, it was a kind of unreasonable and bloody decision, because shortly after His Majesty's order to take the post of President of the Supervisory Office spread throughout Kyoto, news came that Mr. Fan had once again attacked the big net outside the Fan Mansion.

More than twenty people died outside the Fan Mansion on that day.

On the second day, the palace issued an order to remove the position of Chief Envoy of the Transportation Department of Fan Xian, and formally stripped out the treasure of the inner treasury that Qingguo relied on as the foundation of national strength from Fan Xian's control.

That night, Fan Xian took action again and swept the people in the streets and alleys around Fan's mansion in a tic-tac-shaped shape.

On the third day, the palace issued an order. Fan Xian was scolded by a strict order, and the first-class common title was directly seized and captured to the end.

Seven days later, all the official positions of Nan Qing's most dazzling young powerful minister were taken away by ruthless decree. Remembering Jiangnan, when the dragon raised its head, the long list of prefixes in front of the young imperial envoy who stepped down from the ship, not one of them was left.

From today on, Fan Xian replied to his white body, even worse than the Jinshi scholar who went to Beijing to take the exam. He had no official position, nominal authority, and no salary. During the spring examination, he had an errand in the Ministry of Rites and was also recorded in the palace. The extremely noble position of Zhengqing in Taichang Temple was also taken away.

The only remaining part of Fan Xian is the teaching position in the Imperial Academy, which was demoted to the third level, but for some reason, His Majesty the Emperor did not take this position away.

During these seven days, the palace and Fan Mansion were like a transmission belt, transmitting His Majesty's calm and indifferent will, and conveying a series of chilling wills. Under each will, the glory on Fan Xian's body faded.

The Kyoto officials and people all looked at the road in front of Fan Mansion. From that day on the autumn rain court, they all knew that this road would be very busy. But they did not expect that this road would be so busy that it is now.

No one expected that His Majesty would punish the young master so completely and seriously, and no one expected that Fan Xian would be so arrogant and resisted for seven days, but still did not enter the palace to apologize.

Everyone looked at the Fan Mansion, waiting for the direction of the cold war between His Majesty and his illegitimate son? Is it because His Majesty was furious that he simply arrested Fan Xian and went to jail, or whether Fan Xian could not resist these decrees and finally surrendered.

However, even though Fan Xian is just a white man now, the people of Kyoto are still used to calling him Little Fan in their relish chats after dinner, and those officials who hide in their respective mansions and watch the progress of the matter are still used to calling him Little Prince.

Because they all know that even though Fan Xian has been demoted by His Majesty to a wise man, as long as he does not die and is not imprisoned, he may still become the big man below one person and above ten thousand people at any time.

No one dared to underestimate Fan Xian's existence, even beyond the expectations of many officials. Fan Xian clearly violated countless Qinglu, ignored the court, and killed so many people, but in the folk discussion, there were still not many remarks that were unfavorable to Fan Xian.

During the war between His Majesty and Fan Xian, the first time that public opinion in Qingguo was not completely in the palace was strange. Perhaps it was because although Fan Xian killed someone outside the Fan Mansion, what he did was not exaggerated. Except for the first and second days, his murderous aura had been greatly restrained, and the people he killed were all spies sent by the palace. What did it have to do with the general public? Perhaps it was because many people in Kyoto had seen that autumn rain, Fan Xian hugged Chen Pingping's body and cried haggardly, and subconsciously felt a little sympathy.

Human emotions are so strange. They may be cheering the moment before, but the next moment they may begin to remember silently. In fact, such progress has occurred in countless magic fields and countless deaths throughout the ages.

But Fan Xian, who was able to make a white man, still has a foundation for the support of many public comments. It is still because of his actions over the years. Those glorious old things do not need to be proposed one by one to calculate energy, nor do they need to care about how much Chen Pingping used the eight departments of the Supervision Bureau to do for Fan Xian. This is the fact. Since leading the cavalry of Qing Kingdom to break through the old dynasty and open up countless territory decades ago, the only person in Nan Qing can be called an idol is probably Fan Xian.

If it were in Jiangnan, perhaps Fan Xian would have received greater support from the public. After all, he had been there for the longest time, and the Hangzhou, which Lin Wan'er managed, would spare no effort to provide local pensions to the people over the years. It has long replaced the Ming family and became the most glorious name in the minds of the poor people and scholars in Jiangnan.

After all, even if the people in Kyoto are in the imperial city, they will never be able to do anything. So in the final analysis, this war is still the war between Fan Xian and His Majesty, just like Yupiao Astronomy pulling outward.

The majesty of imperial power is undoubtedly supreme. The fear of death is also supreme. In this kind of attack, the surveillance of the inner court will undoubtedly reveal flaws. Fan Xian stood coldly at the door of the mansion, quietly watching the movements around him, but he remembered Wan'er's words that day. A strange emotion flashed in his eyes.

If the emperor wants to deal with Fan Xian's distortion, there are actually many ways. Why don't he use it? Is the outward movement of these inner court's eyeliners forced to do this like a splash? Or is the emperor's secret order issued by his majesty? Those eyeliners are endless...

Fan Xian couldn't figure it out, nor did he want to figure it out. Perhaps the man in the palace still had some warmth and hope for him, but he didn't want this kind of warmth and hope to shake his heart again, the heart that had long been cooled in the autumn rain.

He turned around and entered the Fan Mansion. Not long after, a carriage delivering vegetables also turned into the side alley next to the Fan Mansion. After entering the corner gate, of course, outside the corner gate, the carriage underwent the most stringent inspection, and even the inner layer of each cabbage and the roots of each radish were not spared.

The people responsible for these inspections were all officials with clear identities. Unlike the inner court who were scattered around the Fan Mansion, Fan Xian did not make things difficult for these people because if he wanted to get rid of the shackles of house arrest, the only ones needed to be careful were those officials, not these officials.

There was nothing unusual about the carriage delivered to the vegetable field. The official waved his hand and let the carriage enter the Fan Mansion. Not far from the corner gate was the large kitchen of the Fan Mansion, and there was a servant who came to transport the vegetables, vegetables, melons and fruits on the van.

The palace's order was clearly stated that no one in the Fan Mansion could go out, and it was extremely difficult for people outside to come in. Even the carriage was sent directly by the Dengshikou Vegetable Inspection Department, and it was under surveillance from the court from the source. Naturally, it was not afraid of what the Fan Mansion or the restless officials of the Supervision Bureau wanted to do.

The driver on the carriage quietly wiped the kitchen and walked to the back garden when everyone was not paying attention. Then, with the help of an old servant from the Fan Mansion, he went straight into a quiet study room.

As soon as the coachman entered the study, he saw a woman besides Fan Xian. He immediately guessed that it should be the dean's wife. After being slightly stunned, he took off his straw hat, knelt down and bowed, "I've seen the dean."

After the coachman took off his straw hat, Lin Wan'er covered her mouth in surprise and exclaimed, "It's really like."

The coachman was a little embarrassed, but he didn't dare to say anything. He stood up and said directly: "There are the guards outside the Tianfu these days, so everyone dared not move."

"This is a general in my Qi Nian group. I helped me a lot in Northern Qi back then." Fan Xian Wen explained to his wife that this official from the Supervision Bureau who looked very much like him had been hidden in the Qi Nian group. However, even he did not expect that after seven days of blockade, the Qi Nian group would venture into the mansion to join the mansion and connect with him. The local man would be this person.

"It's best not to move, nothing is as important as your life." Fan Xian looked at the subordinate and said seriously. This was the creed that he had been instilling in the people around him, even the most loyal subordinates, nothing is as important as his life. Wang Qinian did this, and Gundam did this.

"The net outside has loosened a little. I'm going out today." Fan Xian lowered his head slightly and said softly.

"Sir, this is too risky." The official said seriously, thinking that since he had taken the risk to enter the mansion, he would just spread it himself if he had something to do.

"No." Fan Xian shook his head. Those words were too critical and had to be explained to everyone in person. If there was a slight mistake, they would cause great trouble. He suddenly thought that if Wang Qinian was by his side at this time, everything would be easier to solve. With the ability of Lao Wang, sneaking into the Fan Mansion under the gaze of the eyeliners, it would be not too difficult.

"The carriage delivering vegetables is from the Vegetable Inspection Department. How did you come in?" Fan Xian suddenly thought of this question, his eyes slightly converged, and he was a little worried.

"Dai Zhen has checked the vegetable department back." The official responded with a smile.

Fan Xian also laughed. Eunuch Dai re-elected the eunuch who proclaimed the imperial edict. As a result, his nephew also returned to the position of the Vegetable Procuratorate. Using the means of the Supervisory Office to pick up the two men of the Dai family, it was naturally easy to use it at this time.

The sky in Kyoto in autumn is high and far away, and the rain spills from the clouds like lead, making the surrounding scenery blurry but moving. The Fan Mansion and the Palace fought for seven consecutive days, especially the young Mansion's merciless storm outside the mansion for seven consecutive days, which finally made the hearts of most inner court's snooping, because they felt that their colleagues were all in vain. Judging from their appearance, the emperor in the palace would never really take their illegitimate son down to prison and avenge these colleagues.

So the website outside Fanfu lost unconsciously, leaving some loopholes that could be exploited, and the carriage of the Vegetable Inspection Company, which seemed to have no problems, got out of this loophole.

A secluded place in Kyoto, with simple alleys and no deep gardens, with no big family. A small courtyard is quietly located in the end of a lane, and the sound of selling vegetables in the streets and alleys outside is clearly heard here. However, for several years, no one will ever know what this small courtyard represents.

Just as the slight autumn rain wiped away the flour and rouge disguise on his face, Fan Xian flashed into the courtyard, and then saw many familiar faces. Looking at the surprises and the gloom after the surprises were revealed on these faces, Fan Xian's heart was slightly moved, but nothing was revealed on his face.

This is the most secret residence of the Qi Nian group. The officials of the Supervision Bureau here are Fan Xianzao's loyal subordinates. When the news of Kyoto is different, especially when some subtle signs appear inside the Supervision Bureau, these members of the Qi Nian group left their posts silently and quietly, and returned to this small courtyard through different channels, waiting for Fan Xian's call.

Many years ago, when there were only Fan Xian and Wang Qinian in the Qinian group, one old and one young, Wang Qinian spent a very small amount of money to buy the yard. If these members of the Qinian group were Fan Xian’s eyes and arms, and now Fan Xian wants to wave the forces that are close to him in the world, he must convey his will through these loyal eyes and arms.
