Everything starts from Menghualu

Chapter 203 The Fan family’s reaction and Wu Zhu’s return to Beijing
Chen Pingping suddenly stopped talking when she said this, and Fan Jian recovered for a while. Yes, it was just like back then. Didn't they have nothing to do?

If there was a way, he wouldn't trade it with his own son. Thinking of this, Fan Jian said directly, "Okay, you go back. I still have some family matters to deal with, so I won't accompany you."

"Okay, but let me remind you that your family is not just your family now, so I don't want anything to happen that cannot be ended."

"You and I have been old friends for many years, don't make it too difficult for me." Chen Pingping said

After hearing these words, Fan Jian certainly knew what they meant, and he suppressed the anger in his heart and nodded.Then Chen Pingping left here.

After Chen Pingping left, Fan Jian asked someone to call Liu Ruyu and Ruoruo over. When the mother and daughter learned that Fan Jian had called them over, their hearts sank.

Ever since Ruoruo knew that Yan Que was coming over today, she had been extremely anxious. When she came back, she didn't care about her fatigue and told Liu Ruyu the matter directly.

But in fact, Liu Ruyu didn't have any good ideas. After all, the matter was done badly this time. Not to mention that the matter was not done, and he showed up in front of His Majesty, it was a huge defeat.

And under this situation, the house was leaking and it was raining continuously, and Yan Que chose this time to come to the house for a showdown. The current situation was extremely bad.

So for a while, Liu Ruyu had no other choice. The cheap mother and daughter could only go to the study room and wait for the trial to come.

To their surprise, after entering the study, the violent storm they imagined did not come. Instead, they were always immersed in the calm before the storm.

And this also made the two of them feel heavier and heavier. At this moment, they heard a voice saying, "Haha, you are really capable. Do you dare to do such a big thing?"

"Ruoruo, have you ever thought about what if Yan Que doesn't keep his word? What if he kills someone and silences him? Have you ever thought about this? How will you get married in the future?"

"And you, it's okay if Ruoruo doesn't know the depth, but what about you? How old are you? How could you do such a thing? If Ruoruo is not your daughter, you don't feel bad, right?" Fan Jiandao
"Master, I was wronged. Master, I only found out later, but at that time the dead end was settled. I, I have been thinking of ways to make amends."

"Ruoruo was someone I grew up watching, so how could I not feel distressed? I have been planning since then, trying my best to solve this matter."

"Actually, it was all well planned. Even the princess has been convinced by the eldest princess, but I didn't expect that Yan Que would be so cruel." Liu Ruyu knelt down and explained.

"Father, my aunt was forced by me. If you want to blame, just blame me. I chose all this by myself. I have no regrets." After hearing this, Ruoruo knelt down and said
"You, you guys? Okay, okay, okay, that's great. Everyone has hidden this from me. I'm the last one to know. I, the head of the family, am simply a joke!"

"Haha, get out, get out of here!" Fan Jian waved his hands with a helpless look on his face.

After hearing this, Liu Ruyu tried to persuade her, but she was scolded again, so she could only leave the study in despair. Ruoruo naturally did the same.

Looking at the departing figures of his female family members, Fan Jian felt helpless in his heart. He had actually thought about what to do just now, but as soon as he saw them, he was completely confused.

He now deeply understands the meaning of the saying that it is difficult for an honest official to resolve household affairs.

After Ruoruo and Ruoruo came out of the study, they went directly back to Ruoruo's room. After all, the punishment they expected today did not come. At this time, they were very panicked.

"Auntie, what do you think my father is going to do? How can it be over after just a few words? Isn't he trying to do something irreversible?" Ruoruo said worriedly.
"No, Ruoruo, don't worry. You don't know. Chen Pingping came here just now. He discussed it with your father for a long time. He should be the one who convinced your father."

"The most important thing is that now our house is surrounded by water and no news can get out, so you don't have to worry about this."

"The key now is to find a way to let your father vent. If he keeps this in his heart, he will have physical problems." Liu Ruyu said worriedly.

"Yes, but, what should I do? The person my father doesn't want to see the most right now is probably my aunt with me. I'm afraid at this time?" Ruoruo said.
"Yes, but there is someone who should be able to do it. Ruoruo, I want you to take action this time." Liu Ruyu said

"Huh? Auntie, you mean my brother? Yes, why didn't I think of that? Okay, auntie, I won't tell you anymore, I'll go find my brother right now." Ruoruo said immediately.
Looking at the back of Ruoruo Fengfenghuohuo, Liu Ruyu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that since his officials didn't say anything today, they wouldn't say anything in the future.

It's just that after this incident, the rift between her and her officials will never have a chance to be repaired, so at this time, she can't tell whether she should be happy or sad.

But Ruoruo didn't care about this, because at this time, she had already arrived at Fan Xian's place. Fan Xian was very happy about the arrival of his sister.

The situation approaching him was special. He rarely left his yard, so although he knew that Yan Que and Chen Pingping were coming, he didn't know the details.

He was worried about where to go to find out, but his sister came. Isn't this a God-given opportunity?

"Ruoruo, please wait for a while. Let me ask you first, what is going on today? Why is our house so busy? Why are Yan Que and Chen Pingping here?" Fan Xian asked

After hearing this, Ruoruo's face looked a little weird, but she quickly recovered and said, "Brother, I don't know the details, but it shouldn't be good news."

"After Chen Pingping left, my aunt and I went to the study room. As a result, my father was in a bad mood. Our attempts to persuade him were in vain, so we had to go back to the room first."

Fan Xian nodded after hearing this. His doubts deepened, but he still said, "By the way Ruoruo, you suddenly came to see me. Is there something wrong?"

"Ah, yes, there is something. In fact, you also know that I just want you to persuade father. Brother, you are a man after all, so some words are more convenient for us." Ruoruo said.
"Well, that's it. Then I'll go and try to persuade you. But we have agreed in advance. My father and I have been a little awkward these past few days, so it may not be helpful if I go." Fan Xian said
"Oh brother, how long has it been since then and you are still saying this? You have to give it a try before you know whether it works or not?" Ruoruo said hurriedly. Fan Xian thought it was right when he heard this, so he said directly, "Okay, if If you don't worry, I'll go to the study to find my father. Okay, I'll leave now without telling you."

Looking at her brother's leaving figure, Ruoruo finally felt relieved, but that was all. After all, she knew what she had done this time was too much.

Fan Xian didn't know this. He came to the study without knowing anything. When Fan Jian saw him, he said, "Xian'er, why are you here? Did Ruoruo ask you to come?"

"Father, I really can't hide anything from you. It was indeed Ruoruo who asked me to come. I wonder what happened? Can it make you so sad?" Fan Xian said
"Huh? Xian'er, don't you know what happened?" Fan Jian asked with a strange look on his face.
"Ah? Father, should I know? Wait, it's not about me, right? Father, tell me, what exactly is it?" Fan Xian had a guess right away.

After hearing this, Fan Jian looked at his son's expression and knew that he really didn't know. While cursing Ruoruo in his heart, he also felt helpless.

Because for a moment, he didn't know what to say to his son. Should he tell him directly that because of you, your sister went to Yan Que and gave up to him under the humiliation?

So he could only say, "Don't think too much. In fact, what they are talking about is Wuzhu's matter. After all, you have made your attitude clear now. How can they not be worried?"

"The reason I'm so angry is because of this. Your Majesty doesn't think highly of you now. It's only because of Wu Zhu's relationship that he reluctantly agreed to your participation."

"Your Majesty is asking them to question me now, ask me about my position, and see what I really think. Son, Your Majesty is probably going to take action against you." Fan Jiandao
"What? Is that so? But why didn't you tell me?" Fan Xian said
"What's the use of me telling you? Wu Zhu is not in the capital now, and Yan Que's attitude is ambiguous. What if I tell you now? Can you solve it?" Fan Jian asked

After hearing this, Fan Xian stopped talking because he really didn't know how to answer. He really couldn't solve this kind of thing by himself.

"Father, in your opinion, how long can His Majesty tolerate me?" Fan Xian asked

"Well, it's hard to say. The relationship between you and him is there after all. When he will finally take action and what he will do, no one can say now."

"But judging from today's status, it shouldn't be a big problem. It should be fine in half a month. But after half a month, it's hard to say." Fan Jian said solemnly.
"Well, I understand, father, don't worry, Uncle Wu Zhu will definitely come back." Fan Xian could only say this after hearing this. His words were not only to persuade others, but also to persuade himself.

"Okay, it's not that bad now. Your dad and I can still hold on. Okay, go back quickly. You've done a good job during this time. Keep it up," Fan Jiandao
After hearing this, Fan Xian could only nod his head, then bowed and exited the study. After he left, Fan Jian's expression turned gloomy again.

At this time, Yan Que had returned to his mansion and had already talked about this matter with his wife.

"Don't worry, madam, it won't affect your relationship. I've made it very clear. Don't have any worries in the future. Just do whatever you want."

"Madam, you don't have many friends. If you have one friend, of course I have to cherish it. If you get bored, there will still be someone to accompany you." Yan Que said
"Husband, you are so kind. I really took advantage of being able to marry you." Wan'er said
"Haha, you only know now? But you just said it? Can you give me a reward? Also give me more motivation?" Yan Que said with a smile.

After hearing this, Wan'er gave him a blank look, but she didn't refuse. Naturally, Yan Que would not miss the opportunity when he saw this, so the action started again.

As time passed slowly, seven days soon came. During these days, everything seemed to be back to normal, with no changes from before.

It was as if what happened seven days ago had never happened. At this moment, Wu Zhu returned to Beijing, but no one knew that he was back. At this time, he had already entered Fan Xian's room.

"Uncle Wuzhu? You are finally back. If you don't come back, I might be in trouble." When Fan Xian saw Wuzhu coming back, he hurriedly stepped forward and said
"Huh? Why are you so unlucky? What's the reason? Is it Yan Que?" Wu Zhu asked

"No, Uncle Wuzhu, come on, sit down first, and listen to me tell you slowly. Uncle, you don't know, but I have learned a big secret this time. It turns out that I am not."

"So, uncle, do you understand now? On the surface, I want to seize the throne, but in fact, I want to know how my mother died back then."

"Based on what we know now, we can deduce that although it was apparently the Queen's instigation, I always feel that things are not that simple. After all, what happened back then was such a coincidence."

"Why is it such a coincidence that neither you nor Chen Pingping are in the capital? I asked Chen Pingping, and he said that you left the capital first."

"But in this case, Chen Pingping went to Northern Qi? So I guess it's either Chen Pingping or my cheap father. I really can't think of the third person." Fan Xian said
"Well, what are you going to do?" Wu Zhu said seriously.

"Uncle, I plan to get the position of crown prince first, confirm my fight for the throne, and let those people relax their vigilance, so that I can have a chance to find out." Fan Xian said in a deep voice.
"Okay, I understand, then how do you want me to help you?" Wu Zhu said
"Uncle, actually you don't have to do anything. You just need to let the people who should know know that you are back in Beijing. I can handle the rest myself." Fan Xian said
"Okay, I understand, is there anything else?" Wu Zhu asked

"No uncle, are you tired from the journey? Take a rest." Fan Xian advised

After hearing this, Wuzhu didn't move, but closed his eyes. Fan Xian didn't say anything after seeing this, but got up and went back to the bed.

The room gradually darkened, but Wu Zhu, who should have closed his eyes this time, suddenly opened his eyes, with a ferocious expression on his face.

Because some fragments appeared in his mind, some fragments that had long been forgotten. This sudden memory caught him off guard.

When Fan Xian woke up the next day, Wu Zhu had already left. Fan Xian was not surprised when he saw this. Instead, he washed and tidied up and then went to the study.

"What did you say? Wu Zhu is back? Are you really back?" Fan Jian said with a surprised look on his face.
