Xiao Fan ordered Jia San and his wife to calm down the panicked servants at home, and then took Jia Quan to find Zhao Pan'er.

As soon as the two of them arrived at the door of Zhao Pan'er's house, Jia Quan rushed up, grabbed the door knocker, knocked on the door and shouted: "Sister Pan'er, Xiao Zhao, the officials and I are here to see you."

After a while, the door opened from the inside, revealing Xiao Zhao's face that was about to cry.

"Master, go and see Sister Pan'er quickly. She has been shutting herself in her room since she came back, without even turning on the light. If it weren't for the crying that could be heard from time to time, I would be really afraid that something would happen to her."

He signaled to Xiao Zhao not to worry. When he entered the door, he found Sun Sanniang also running around anxiously behind the door.

"Xiao Fan, hurry up and take a look. Pan'er won't even open the door for me now, so I can only look at you!"

Xiao Fan nodded to her: "Okay, you, Xiao Zhao, and Jia Quan will stay here. I'll go over and take a look first."

After Xiao Fan gave instructions to the three of them, he went straight to Zhao Paner's room.

When Jia Quan called the door, Zhao Pan'er already knew that Xiao Fan was definitely coming.

But at this moment, neither Zhao Pan'er nor Xiao Fan knew how to face each other. Because of Xiao Qinyan, there was a blood feud between her and Xiao Fan.

When she heard Xiao Qinyan say that he was the one who impeached his father in Xiao Fan's study, Zhao Pan'er felt like the sky was falling.

It turns out that more than ten years have passed since the incident, and she has already let it go, no longer holding on to the past.

As a result, we learned from Xiao Qinyan that he was the one who caused Zhao Pan'er's family to be ruined, and he was also the father of his fiancé. It made people sigh that it was really a trick of fate!

"Pan'er!"

Hearing Xiao Fan's anxious shouts and knocking on the door, Zhao Pan'er ran towards the door happily and almost hit the table and fell down because of the blindness.

Xiao Fan felt relieved when he heard the movement in the room, but felt distressed after hearing the impact. He hurriedly said: "Pan'er, be careful, don't hurt yourself."

The moment she touched the door bolt, Zhao Pan'er's hand suddenly stopped. She turned around and leaned her back against the door. She slid down the door panel and sat on the ground. She buried her head in her knees with both hands and cried.

Xiao Fan heard the cry, knocked on the door and shouted anxiously: "Pan'er, what's wrong with you? Open the door!"

Zhao Paner wanted to see Xiao Fan, but was extremely confused.

"Fan Lang, my heart is so confused, what do you think I should do?"

Listening to Zhao Pan'er's sad cry, Xiao Fan's heart ached like a knife: "Pan'er, I want to see you. No matter what you think, I will support you."

Seeing that Zhao Pan'er didn't open the door, Xiao Fan sat on the ground with his back to the door. He and Zhao Pan'er were back to back across the door. He couldn't help but utter a faint self-mockery: "Pan'er, do you know? Just now, I confirmed something.

.I guess you can’t imagine that my father planned the attack on me.”

"What?" Zhao Pan'er suddenly stood up and opened the door, ignoring Xiao Fan who almost fell, and checked his body: "Then did he make things difficult for you just now? Are you injured?"

"He didn't make things difficult for me. After all, he and I are also father and son. Besides, the few people he brought can't hurt me." Xiao Fan stood up and wiped the tears on Zhao Pan'er's face: "Pan'er, you are finally willing to see me.

.”

Zhao Pan'er let Xiao Fan caress her face and asked anxiously: "Tell me quickly what's going on? Why did your father want to harm you?"

"Actually, it can't be said that he harmed me. He just regarded me as a chess piece, and then for his own overall situation, he made me a chess piece that was almost eaten by others." Xiao Fan was very helpless.

"Then your heart must be very painful, right? You were betrayed by the person closest to you and kept in the dark." Zhao Pan'er leaned into Xiao Fan's arms and stroked his face distressedly.

"Actually, it's nothing," Xiao Fan said as he walked into the room and lit a candle: "He hasn't cared about me much since I was a child. When I was sixteen, he even said that I couldn't hold up a wall with mud, and then drove me away from Tokyo.

Go back to my hometown in Suzhou."

"My mother has loved me since I was a child and even quarreled with him over this matter, but after all, he is the head of the family. During the six years I have been in Suzhou, I can only go to Tokyo every year for the New Year's Day family reunion. Later, I worked as a government official in Suzhou.

I told you six years ago, and you know it."

"Then why did you say he was using you?"

Zhao Pan'er blinked her big eyes that were red from crying and looked at him curiously.

"Didn't he lose power in the court this time and move to the left? In order to return to the court, he heard someone said that two ears of wheat were found in Tonglu, and he was going to present it to the official family as an auspicious sign."

"So he came to me and said that he had neglected me over the years. Now he saw that I had grown a lot and wanted to keep me with him for a long time. So he took me to Tonglu in the name of visiting relatives, but actually he wanted to see for himself whether the auspiciousness was true.

.”

"Some people from the Qingliu party in the court knew that he was going to Tonglu and that he didn't have many guards around him, so they prepared to intercept and kill this traitor."

"I didn't expect that he secretly got off the ship midway, but claimed that he was ill and needed to rest in the cabin. Because I, the second son, was here, others did not suspect that he had left long ago."

"In the end, he took advantage of the Qingliu party. Not only did he uproot their power in the south of the Yangtze River, but he also followed the clues and caught a lot of clues about Qingliu in the court. And he did not delay him in giving good luck to the officials."

Zhao Pan'er couldn't help but sigh: "It's such a profound calculation, it's like killing multiple birds with one stone. He used the trick of luring the snake out of the cave to weaken Qingliu's strength, eradicated his constraints in the south of the Yangtze River, offered auspiciousness to please the officials, and won the favor of the officials after the attack.

The key to the sympathy of the officials is to seize the Qingliu party so that they dare not act rashly. And the price of all this..."

"That's right, the price of all this is just my insignificant and useless son. What's more, I'm fine now, wouldn't everyone be happy?" Xiao Fan laughed as he spoke.

Zhao Pan'er looked at Xiao Fan who was getting more and more crazy as he smiled and said worriedly: "Don't be like this, I feel bad when you look like this."

"Pan'er, do you know? In fact, I didn't feel too heartbroken when I found out, because I knew he was that kind of person, so I wasn't surprised." Xiao Fan lay down and rested his head on Zhao Pan'er's lap and whispered softly: "Really

What makes me heartbroken is that when you ran away and ignored me just now, I was really heartbroken at that moment. I was afraid that you would never ignore me again, and I was afraid that I would lose you."

Zhao Pan'er gently touched Xiao Fan's temples to help him relax: "Fan Lang, you know? In fact, I thought a lot just now. I thought about never missing you again, but I found that I couldn't. I also thought about leaving, but

When I think about the days without you, my heart is like a knife."

When Xiao Fan heard this, he happily hugged Zhao Pan'er's waist and rubbed his head against her waist: "So I am so important in your heart. I knew you couldn't bear to leave me, Pan'er."

"Don't make trouble! It's itchy." Zhao Pan'er used her hands to control his rubbing head, and said slowly: "Actually, I also know that your father did not do anything wrong at the beginning. It was his duty as an official to impeach my father.

.It was not your father or the official family that reduced me to a lowly status. It was my father's own choice."

"My father knew that opening the door to let people go was a serious crime, but he still chose to do it. Just because he couldn't watch the people of the Song Dynasty being plundered and killed by the Liao people without doing anything."

"When my father's old subordinates came to redeem me, they told me that when my father was dying, he said he was sorry to me and my mother, but he had no regrets."

"Fan Lang, do you remember? I also told you that I will never regret it at any time!"

Seeing Zhao Pan'er who was crying again and again while talking, Xiao Fan quickly sat up and held her in his arms.

"Pan'er, I will definitely make you happy every day from now on, without even the thought of regret."

"Well, I believe you!" Zhao Pan'er dug into Xiao Fan's arms again.

Xiao Fan was happy when he heard this: "What about our marriage?"
