Chapter 156: Furious!
It started to rain lightly in the gloomy sky. A luxurious carriage slowly stopped in front of Fan's mansion under the protection of guards.

"Your Highness, why didn't you say hello in advance when you came? I would like to ask the young master to come out to pick you up." Liu Zi took the gift box and made a gesture of invitation.

"I have nothing to do. I'm going out for a walk and visiting my two elders."

Princess Taiping glanced at the heavily guarded guards and frowned slightly.

"How is this going?"

"Your Highness doesn't know something. My young master has been grounded by the Queen Mother. These Qianniuwei brothers are here to carry out the will."

"It turns out that he was grounded by his mother." Princess Taiping smiled casually: "I didn't expect that this guy would also be punished."

"I go in and see him." He said and walked towards the door.

At this moment, a half-dressed woman suddenly walked over from a distance and knelt in front of Fan's house in front of everyone.

The rain slid down her wet hair and fell to the ground, and her face looked pale and frightening.

Qianniuwei was wary of this stranger who appeared.

"Girl, if you want to file a complaint, you have to go to Luozhou Yamen. This is the Marquis Mansion. No one is allowed to come near this place without the decree of the imperial court!"

"You'd better go quickly!"

The woman raised her head and scanned everyone one by one, folding her hands on her chest and trembling.

"I want to see Fan Siqing!"

"What a joke, Fan Siqing can be seen by you whenever you want?"

"Come on!"

Several Qianniu Guards waved their hands impatiently and walked up to the woman to drag her away.

It's a special period now and it's too late to protect Fan Xin. How dare they let people in at will. "

Princess Taiping didn't take it seriously at first, but she was slightly startled when she saw the woman's face.

"Hey, isn't this Zhou Tong's wife? Why is she here?"

"Your Highness, do you know this person?" Liuzi stopped and asked curiously.

"We know each other. I met Zhou Tong and his wife several times when we were at the inn."

Having said this, she walked up to the woman and put her hands in her hands.

"Why are you here if you don't go back to your hometown?"

Hearing this, the woman raised her face and said with sadness: "My husband was put in a prison by the magistrates and tortured. They said that he would be taken out and beheaded at noon tomorrow."

"Please let me see Fan Siqing. He is the only one in Luoyang who can save my husband."

After hearing these words, Princess Taiping's expression suddenly changed and she quickly asked.

"Where did you come from?"

Years of palace life have allowed her to develop a sensitivity far beyond ordinary people.

Pretending to be a princess is a serious crime and according to the law, he should be imprisoned in the same prison as Zhou Tong.

However, the Senate only released her and pointed out the location of Fan Mansion. No matter how you look at it, the woman looks like a bait.

Sure enough, the woman hesitated for a moment: "The little woman was defiled by those animals and was thrown out of the Magistrate's Court."

"Your Highness, please let me see Fan Siqing. My husband was almost tortured to death in order not to betray him." The woman sobbed softly.

After her thoughts were confirmed, Princess Taiping sighed and squatted in front of the woman.

"Ms. Zhou Yan, I cannot let you see Fan Xin. He is in great danger now and will definitely fall into the enemy's trap once he steps out of the gate."

"By then, not only will your husband die, Fan Xin will also be implicated."

"You'd better accept your fate." He said, taking off the gold bracelet and putting it in the woman's hand.

"There's nothing we can do about Zhou Tong. You should take your gold bracelet and go back to your hometown as soon as possible."

After saying that, he turned around and walked towards Fan's house, leaving the woman kneeling alone in the rain and crying.

"Listen, if anyone dares to talk nonsense in front of Fan Xin, I will kill him immediately!"

People are selfish, and Fan Xin is her husband, the one who will have power in the world in the future.She would never allow an insignificant person to affect his future.

Even if this is a miserable woman!

All the way to the hall, the Fan family was sitting at the table eating. When they saw her coming, Fan Zhonghua and his wife stood up quickly but were stopped by Princess Taiping.

"Uncle and aunt don't need to be polite. From now on we will be a family and we just need to get along as equals."

"Look at how well this child can talk." Mrs. Zhou touched Princess Taiping's little hand with a smile on her face and said to her daughter.

"Xiaolan, please ask the cook to cook more dishes. Taiping will be a golden branch and a jade leaf. We can't treat her badly."

"I know, mother." Fan Xiaolan smiled slightly and went to the kitchen.

After the two parties sat down, Fan Zhonghua glared at his son.

"I just know how to eat. When the princess comes, I don't even say hello. Do you have any etiquette?"

"We are all a family from now on, why do you do such nonsense?" Fan Xin said angrily.

"you!"

"Okay, uncle, Fan Xin is right, my family doesn't need to be too polite." Princess Taiping glanced at Fan Xin with a proud expression.

Fan Xin felt helpless and was about to go to the study to draw the drawings of the matchlock gun and flintlock gun when a faint exclamation came from the front yard.

"Xiao Liu, what happened at the front door? It's so noisy?"

"This..." Liu Zi subconsciously looked at Princess Taiping, who shook her head slightly.

"Look at what she is doing, reply to my words!" Fan Xin said dissatisfied.

Damn Xiao Liuzi has taken himself less and less seriously since he relied on his parents.

Liuzi said with a smile: "Back to the young master, it's Qian Niuwei's brothers who are drinking."

"Mom, not to mention banning me, I even have to pay for the food and drinks. Where can I reason with you?" Fan Xin muttered and walked towards the study.

At this time, a figure ran in from the rain curtain, kneeling on one knee and saying regardless of Princess Taiping's ugly face.

"Reporting to Lord Fan Si, there is a woman outside the palace who claims to be Zhou Tong's wife and died after running into a beam. Before she fell into coma, she asked her subordinate to tell you."

"You are the last survivor of the Tang Dynasty. If you don't even dare to show up, who can the people expect to protect them from the wind and rain!"

"Zhou Tong's wife?" Fan Xin frowned and looked at Liu Zi.

"Didn't you say that Qian Niuwei's brother was drinking? Why did he end up committing suicide?"

"This……"

Fan Xin slammed the table and shouted: "Now, you still want to hide this from me."

"Say!"

Seeing Fan Xin getting angry, Liu Zi knew that he could no longer hide it, so he could only tell the whole story exactly as it was.

Finally, he whispered.

"Master, the people in the Magistrate's Court have made it clear that they want you to rescue people to prove that Zhou Tong was instigated by you."

"We must not be fooled."

"Yes, Xin'er, the Queen Mother ordered you to stay at home because she is afraid that you will fall into the enemy's scheme."

"You can't disobey the order." Zhou said with a worried look.

Seeing Fan Xin frowning and saying nothing, Princess Taiping sighed.

"Fan Xin, we are getting married next month. For the sake of my palace and my family, you should endure this."

"As long as you avoid this period of limelight, no one can frame you again."

"Compared to Splendid Future, Zhou Tong and his wife are just small figures after all, and their deaths are insignificant."

"If you want to blame, just blame them for their bad fate. They were born into an ordinary family."

Faced with everyone's admonitions, Fan Xin sighed and slowly stood up from his seat.
