Tang Dynasty: The seventh rank of official residence, and you will be given the Ten Thousand People

Chapter 235 Hang up and leave!

The cheerful atmosphere in the yard suddenly stopped, and Princess Taiping looked at Fan Xin in disbelief.

"What did you say, consort?"

Hearing such news suddenly, she couldn't react for a while.

Shangguan Wan'er also had a shocked expression.

Fan Xin understood the mood of the two of them very well. It was hard for them to make a great achievement but to leave sadly, which no one could accept.

But that's politics, and no one knows the emperor better than he does.

This time Wu Sansi launched a coup, it can be said that the emperor's prestige was completely lost. If he hadn't saved him, he might not even have been able to save his life.

If he continues to stay in the court, wouldn't he be reminding the ministers that the emperor relies on him to secure his throne?

So when he saw Manager Geng putting pears on the table, he knew it was time to leave.

After suppressing his thoughts, Fan Xin smiled lightly.

"Don't be nervous. I'm just a little tired. I'll go back to my hometown in Youzhou to visit."

What kind of characters are the two women? They are all smart and smart. Naturally, they don't believe Fan Xin's words.

Princess Taiping's pretty face darkened and she said seriously.

"Did someone in the court impeach you? Was it Wu Chengsi or the crown prince?"

"They are all white-eyed wolves. You worked so hard to save their lives, but you actually want to write a letter to impeach you!"

"This is simply unreasonable!"

Shangguan Wan'er frowned.

"I will go back to the palace to advise His Majesty. I believe she can distinguish right from wrong!"

After saying that, he was about to go to the palace to find the emperor, but Fan Xin stopped him with his hand.

"This matter has nothing to do with the prince. It's just that I want to go back to my hometown and stay for a while."

"You really don't want to stay in Luoyang?"

Facing the two women's inquiries, Fan Xin came to the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the ancient city of Luoyang in the distance.

"It's not that I don't want to stay in Luoyang, but I can't stay here anymore."

"Leaving early can at least preserve a trace of friendship. Otherwise, one day suspicion will arise and nothing will be left."

"You know, I care about friendship the most. I can't do it without anyone."

There is another sentence that Fan Xin did not say. This time Wu Sansi rebelled, most of the army generals who participated were from his disciples.

If he wants them to survive, he has no choice but to leave the capital city and return to his hometown.

In this way, the emperor would spare their lives for his own sake.

Princess Taiping hugged Fan Xin's waist from behind and pressed her face against his back.

"In this way, the emperor and everyone will feel at ease, but you will suffer."

"Okay, let Wei Peng pack his things. Let's set out quietly tomorrow morning without disturbing anyone."

……

At night, visit the Guanfeng Hall.

Zhang Jianzhi, the minister of Feng Pavilion, came to the hall anxiously.

"Your Majesty, Fengge Luantai just received a memorial from Fan Xin."

"It is said that he is seriously ill and has reached the point where he can no longer support himself. We are asking the court to allow him to retire and return to his hometown."

Wu Zetian's body trembled slightly and she held the brush in hand without raising her head.

"Jianzhi, what do you think?"

"Your Majesty, Fan Xin has great military exploits, is capable of civilizing the country, and is capable of commanding the entire army. He is a rare legendary figure since the founding of the Zhou Dynasty."

"You must not allow him to resign and return to his hometown, otherwise it will be difficult to quell the uproar between the government and the opposition."

Since the last plan failed, Zhang Jianzhi knew that the only way to get rid of people like Fan Xin was to kill him.

So he chose to try his best to retain Fan Xin.

However, what surprised him was that the emperor who used to be open-minded about Fan Xin changed his mind.

He said calmly.

"Prelude!"

"Your Majesty, what did you say?"

Zhang Jianzhi thought he had heard wrongly and looked at the emperor in disbelief.

"Your Majesty, he is only thirty years old this year. It is time for him to be strong and healthy. You?"

Putting down her brush, Wu Zetian sighed.

"Do you think I want to lose Fan Xin? No one in the entire Zhou Dynasty knows that he is a loyal minister and general with great military exploits.

"He is retiring and returning home to make me feel at ease."

Speaking of this, Wu Zetian covered her heart and coughed several times.

"You should step back first."

Zhang Jianzhi sighed in disappointment, stood up and left, until only Wu Zetian was left in the hall.

A figure appeared in the corner.

"Your Majesty, I have been in the internal defense for so many years, and I am used to intrigues and intrigues."

"But this is the first time I've seen someone as affectionate and righteous as Duke Yan. You don't know that after reading the letter, he didn't even change his clothes and got on the horse."

"I didn't even get a full night's sleep along the way. The soldiers advised Duke Yan to get some sleep before leaving, but he always said that he could just wait a little longer to save His Majesty."

"Your Majesty, you have a good son-in-law." Liu Da said with emotion.

Wu Zetian showed a hint of pride.

"Of course! I have only trusted two and a half men in my life, one was Gaozong, one was Fan Xin, and half was Di Renjie!"

"Everyone in the world thinks that I am mean and ungrateful. I have no room for Fan Xin."

"Don't you know this is my way of protecting him!"

"This guy values ​​love and justice, and cares about the world. I really can't bear to let him be implicated for the sake of those rebel soldiers."

"So I can only let him go home and rest for a while. After all these rebellious officials and traitors are killed, I will invite him back!"

At the end of the story, Wu Zetian's eyes flashed with endless killing intent.

Seeing this, the figure bowed and said

"Your Majesty, don't worry. The internal guards have drawn up a list of more than 20,000 people. We guarantee that they will not survive the Lantern Festival!"

...

Early the next morning, in the courtyard, Fan Xin took out a stack of contracts from his arms.

"I have changed your deed of betrayal into a good status."

"Get your severance pay, go back and buy a house, and buy a few acres of land to live a good life. It won't be in vain for you to compete with me."

Hearing this, all the servants knelt on the ground one after another, their voices choked with sobs.

"Prime Minister, the mountains are high and the roads are far, so you must take care of yourself."

"Young ones, I can't serve you anymore, woo woo..."

Looking at the crying servant, Fan Xin turned around and waved his hands.

The six men were carrying small baskets and each of them was given twenty copper coins.

According to the rules of Yaxing, one tael for a slave and eight taels for a maid.

But Fan Xin took out all his salary.

After the servants wiped away their tears and turned back three times to leave, Liuzi came back.

"Master, there are four boxes of our gifts in total. They have been loaded on the carriage and are ready to go."

Fan Xin nodded, glanced at the house sadly, and sighed.

"It's been two years, and it's really hard to bear to have to leave suddenly."

Liuzi said unwillingly.

"Master, I really didn't expect it to end like this."

Fan Xin patted his shoulder.

"Six sons, it is enough for a person who is a minister to be worthy of heaven above and worthy of the common people below."

"As for personal grievances, it may not be a disaster. Let's go."

After closing the door, Fan Xin took a deep breath and walked towards the carriage.

Princess Taiping's carriage was already waiting there.

A group of people got on the carriage and headed out of the city. Wherever they passed, people retreated to the streets and looked at the convoy in surprise.

I can’t figure out why Fan Xin left again just after he came back.

When passing by the Shili Changting Pavilion, Liuzi suddenly pulled the reins and looked into the carriage in shock.

"Master, look, all the ministers are here to see you off!"
