The crowd parted, and Fan Xin, dressed in a white cotton robe, strode over.

His face was resolute and his steps were steady. The guards of the three armies stood in awe and bowed their heads wherever he passed.

With tens of thousands of people watching, Fan Xin came to the imperial chariot and bowed before him.

"Your Majesty, Holy Ann?"

"Holy Holy Gong!"

"Queen Mother Saint Ann?"

"Saint also be in peace!"

After the two parties finished their greetings according to etiquette, Wei Peng smiled slightly and read loudly.

"Under my sect, Haotian has a destiny, and the emperor accepts it. Fan Xin, the young minister of Dali Temple, was honest and upright during his tenure and made many meritorious deeds. He was specially appointed as the deposed deputy envoy of Guannai Road to assist Princess Taiping in negotiating with the Turks."

"My servant Fan Liu is loyal to his master and has made outstanding contributions. He will be promoted to the rank of Sixth Grade Qianniu Preparatory Officer as appropriate. Zhang Huan and Li Lang will each be awarded the same position."

As soon as these words came out, everyone onlookers showed envy. Even a servant could be awarded a sixth-grade official position, which shows how deep Fan Xin's holy family is.

Tan Yue, in particular, looked at Fan Xin with dull eyes and a bitter mouth.

It took him ten years of humility to earn the position of ninth-grade county captain, but in the end he was no more than a servant like Fan Xin.

How sad!

What an irony!

No one cares what a fallen county captain thinks. At this moment, everyone is looking at Fan Zhonghua and his wife with envy.

It is not difficult to imagine that the Fan family will definitely become a new powerful family in the future.

He is no longer the small farmer who allowed himself to be bullied.

"His father, Xin'er has become a high official. We can have an explanation to the ancestors of the Fan family!" Looking at her high-spirited son in the field, Mrs. Zhou wiped the corners of her eyes and said.

"Yes, my biggest hope before was that Xin'er would become famous and his ancestors would be honored, and now it has finally come true." Fan Zhonghua said with emotion.

However, just when Fan Zhonghua and his family thought the matter was over, Wei Peng suddenly changed the subject and looked at them.

"In addition, his father, Fan Zhonghua, has made great contributions to the education and education. He was granted the title of Changping County Male of the Fifth Rank, with eighty households in the city."

"His mother, Zhou, and sister Fan Xiaolan were each conferred the title of Mrs. Lady of the Fifth Grade County Lord and the Imperial Lady of the Sixth Grade."

"I will reward you with a plaque from the Zhongliang family. All civil servants who meet you will get off their sedan chairs and military officers will get off their horses."

"Appreciate this..."

As soon as these words came out, the whole place shook with thunder, and tens of thousands of onlookers crowded forward to see the plaque of the Zhongliang Family with their own eyes.

As for the three hundred stones of tribute rice, twenty jars of royal wine, ten cattle, and one strong horse mentioned by the imperial envoy, they no longer care.

At such an old age, they had only heard in dramas that the court awarded plaques to ministers who had made meritorious deeds.

I didn’t expect to see it with my own eyes today.

"It's really breathtaking! This is the first time in my seventy-year-old life that I have seen such a scene."

"It's so shocking!"

"It's ridiculous that Tan Yue has eyesight but cannot see Mount Tai. He thinks he is trying to win over a big tree, but he doesn't know how small Yunshan is compared to Fan Xin!"

The onlookers turned their heads to look at the pale Tan Yue, with a sense of gloating in their eyes.

Feeling the mocking eyes of everyone, Tan Yue felt his throat licked and a mouthful of blood spurted out.

The next moment, everyone collapsed on the ground and looked at Fan Zhonghua's family who came forward to receive the order with unwillingness.

"Good wife..." Tan Yue reached forward with difficulty.

Bang!

Dozens of feet stepped on his back and ran over.

After handing over the imperial edict to Fan Zhonghua's family, Princess Taiping smiled and took Zhou's hand and said.

"Auntie, you have given birth to a good son. Let's look forward to enjoying him in the future."

Mrs. Zhou likes people to praise her son most, she said a little cautiously when she heard this.

"Your Highness Princess, you are so good-looking. I wonder if you are married yet. My second son is fine in everything but he has not yet married. I think you two..."

"Auntie, you go back first, I still have some business to deal with." Fan Xin interrupted hurriedly.

Good guy, I am a mother who really misses her daughter-in-law so much that she talks nonsense without even looking at who the other person is.

If the Queen Mother found out about this, wouldn't she be sent to the inner chamber?

"You kid really has no eyesight. Didn't you see me talking to Her Highness the Princess?" Mrs. Zhou glared at her son and smiled at Princess Taiping.

"Your Highness, when you finish your business, be sure to come and sit at home. I will stew a chicken for you."

Princess Taiping blushed and nodded: "Don't worry, aunt, I will definitely go and sit down after I finish my official duties."

After the family of three left, the smile on her face disappeared and she sneered.

"Who is Fan Shaoqing, who is still famous in the Tang Dynasty? Isn't this the Fan Renyan I met in Hanguang Temple, Brother Fan?"

Sensing Princess Taiping's dissatisfaction, Fan Xin covered his mouth and coughed.

"Your Highness will talk to you later. Before that, I have something to deal with."

With that said, he came to Yunshan and said calmly with his hands behind his back: "Yun Changshi, do you still think that I am the leader of Heifeng Village?"

Hearing this, the smile on Yunshan's face faltered and he said sarcastically.

"Fan deposed his envoy to calm down his anger. The subordinate just listened to Tan Yue's slander for a moment. You can rest assured that the governor's office will deal with this slander seriously!"

"Misunderstanding?" Fan Xin sneered: "I don't think so. Could it be that the villagers who were imprisoned in Youzhou Prison also had a misunderstanding?"

As soon as these words came out, a flash of shock suddenly flashed in Yunshan's eyes, and then he lowered his head and said.

"I don't know what you are going to say."

Seeing that it was already this time, Yunshan still wanted to pretend not to know, so Fan Xin shook his sleeves and shouted loudly.

"In the fifth year of Yonghui, you killed more than 900 people and pretended to be meritorious. Later, you pretended to be bandits and massacred more than 3,000 households in the village."

"Yunshan, don't you know that there are more than five thousand lives?"

"Come here, arrest these bastards who are greedy, perverting the law, and stained with blood and interrogate them severely!"

"I will obey your orders!"

The Eight Hundred Thousand Niu Guards shouted loudly and immediately rushed towards the people in the Governor's Mansion with knives. Anyone who encountered resistance would be subdued with knives.

Not long after, more than three hundred officials, large and small, were all taken away except Fang Qian.

"Depose the envoy, what should we do with this guy? He said he is your brother-in-law." Zhang Huan pointed at Tan Yue, whose face was covered with blood.

"Brother, brother-in-law is wrong. We are all a family. Can you please..." Tan Yue said with a smile.

Fan Xin glanced at him and said coldly: "This man abandoned his wife and son, took bribes and perverted the law. He does not need to be tried again and can be directly put on death row until the Youzhou case is over and executed together!"

Tan Yue......

After escorting all the prisoners away, Princess Taiping said worriedly.

"Are you too hasty to do this? Fang Qian is the governor of Youzhou and has the power of the local garrison. If he is angered and the dog jumps over the wall, we may not be able to live with it."

Fan Xin smiled calmly, looked at the southern suburbs of Youzhou and said, "Your Highness, there is no need to worry. Fang Qian just keeps to himself."

"If he jumps over the wall in a hurry, he will definitely die!"

Southern suburb, Fang Mansion.

"So all our core members have been arrested?" Fang Qian stood in front of the window and said with a pale face.

"Back to the governor, everyone from Yunshan to the county magistrates were imprisoned!"

"I'm worried that they will reveal what you did before." The armored general said with his fists clasped.

"Okay, okay, a young man with no hair on his head actually dares to run wild on my own territory. Do you really think that I, Fang Qian, are a fool?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fang Qian turned around suddenly and said murderously.

"Xiong Hui, you immediately go back to the Youzhou camp to mobilize troops and horses, and wait until noon tomorrow to rush into Youzhou City and attack Xingyuan."

“If you want me to die, then they don’t want to live either!
