"Childe, what are you talking about, it's too quiet, the servant can't hear clearly." Han Zhan was thinking nonsense when he suddenly heard Pear Blossom's voice: "You say be louder." ”

Pear Blossom's voice woke Han Zhan up from his contemplation, and he immediately realized that he had just been thinking too much, and he actually said everything in his heart unconsciously. He hurriedly changed the topic and asked, "Pear Blossom, how is the relationship between me and my second brother?" ”

Hearing Han Zhan's question, Rika was stunned for a moment, and then thought that this son had almost forgotten all the previous things since he was injured after falling from a horse, and when he woke up that day, he saw his own expression, as if he was looking at a stranger. This is still the case for the servant girl who gets along with him day and night, let alone others.

Rika hurriedly replied: "Do you need to say this, of course it's brother and brother." The second son is not only respectful to you, but even when he sees me, he speaks very politely, and he doesn't put on a show at all. ”

Originally, Han Zhan had already believed in his heart that his second brother was the culprit who instigated the assassin's assassination, but when he heard Lihua say this, he couldn't help but doubt his guess again. After careful consideration, he decided to meet this second brother in person, and see what the other party's expression was when he saw him, and he could basically judge the truth of the matter.

Thinking of this, he looked up and asked Pear Blossom: "When does the second son practice martial arts every day?" ”

Rika thought for a moment, and then said in an uncertain tone, "It's probably the time." ”

"What time is it?"

"It's already time."

Han Zhan stood up from the barrel and ordered: "Pear Blossom, help me change my clothes, I want to go to the garden to watch my second brother practice martial arts." ”

Pear Blossom answered, wiped Han Zhan who had just come out of the bucket dry, took the clothes that had been prepared a long time ago, and put them on for him one by one. After getting dressed, she also tentatively persuaded her: "Childe, the second son practices for more than an hour every day, so you should go after dinner." ”

"I'll have dinner when I get back." Han Zhan, who was eager to know the truth, really couldn't wait for a minute, where else did he have anything to eat. But in front of Pear Blossom, he wanted to pretend to be casual: "I haven't seen my second brother for many days, so I just went to catch up on the old days." ”

"Childe, even if you and the second son haven't seen each other for many days, there is no hurry to meet at this time." Rika continued to persuade: "Let's go again after dinner." I'm calling the patch over now and asking him to move the barrel away. ”

Before Rika could walk out of the room, Patch hurriedly ran in and shouted with a panicked face: "Childe, it's not good, Childe, something happened......"

"Panic what!" Han Zhan frowned and asked dissatisfiedly, "Patch, you say slowly, what's wrong?" ”

"Returning to the prince," Patch hurriedly replied with a low brow, "The prince has returned to the house!" ”

"This is Fujun's home, what's wrong with him returning to his home after receiving the Marquis of Yi?" Han Zhan asked puzzledly, "Is it worth your fuss?" ”

"Childe, you'd better go and have a look," Patch said with a sad face, "and you'll understand it all when you see it." ”

Listening to the tone of Patch's words, Han Zhan seemed to have something wrong, and hurriedly asked, "Where is Fu Jun?" ”

"Just entered the gate, and was walking towards the main hall......" Before he finished speaking, Han Zhan had already run past him like a gust of wind and ran towards the main hall in front.

Entering the main hall, he only saw that there were two servants lighting oil lamps inside, Han Zhan hurriedly asked loudly, "Where is the prince?" ”

A servant pointed outside, "The prince is still in the courtyard." ”

Han Zhan looked out of the door and saw two rows of lanterns coming slowly. He hurriedly greeted him, and with the help of the light of the lantern, he could see clearly that Han Fu, who was still in high spirits not long ago, and even condescended to drive for Yuan Shao, was now a man in his early forties, with blank eyes and staggering steps, but he looked like a drooping old man in his seventies and eighties. He didn't even have the strength to move, but was being helped by two servants to move forward little by little.

After placing Han Fu in the main hall, Han Zhan sent the servants out, and then asked with concern: "Father, shouldn't you be in the Prefecture Pastoral Mansion at this moment, accompanying the Marquis of Yi Township for a banquet, why are you so sad?" ”

"Xun Chen, Xin Ping, Guo Tu," Han Fu gritted his back molars and said viciously: "In vain, I have a lot of respect for them, who knows that as soon as they see Yuan Benchu, they can't wait to change their courts." I, the former Jizhou pastor, was still sitting next to me, and they showed favor to Yuan Benchu as if no one was around, and they didn't take me seriously......"

After Han Zhan and Han Fu complained for a while, he asked cautiously, "Father, I don't know how Xianghou Yi plans to settle you?" ”

Han Fu's expression was gloomy, and he said with a look of remorse: "Xun Chen once said that as long as I gave Jizhou to Yuan Shao, he would definitely thank me for my kindness, and Gongsun Zhan would not dare to wave his troops south. In this way, I not only have the reputation of being virtuous, but also the place in Jizhou will be as stable as Mount Tai. Who knew that today Yuan Shao actually named me a brave general, who can neither manage the army nor the people, which is a fictitious title in name only. ”

Hearing this, Han Zhan sighed secretly, and said in his heart that poor people must have something to hate, and Han Fu also reaped the consequences. But he thought about it, in such a big Jizhou, it is impossible to have only two loyal ministers, Geng Wu and Min Chun, there should be many civil and military generals who oppose Yuan Shao's stay in Jizhou. Thinking of this, he asked tentatively: "Father, although there are people who tend to be inflammatory, there must be loyal ministers in Jizhou, and they are unwilling to serve Yuan Shao." I wonder if there is such a person? ”

Han Fu didn't realize that when he was talking to his son, the title of Yuan Shao had been changed from Yixianghou and Yuan Benchu to his name. He thought for a while and replied: "When I went out of the city to greet Yuan Shao early this morning, Jizhou civil and military forces had basically arrived, and only two of them said that they were sick at home in the future. ”

"Are they Geng Wu and Min Chun?" Han Zhan asked.

Who knew that Han Fu shook his head and replied, "Geng Wu and Min Chun have already resigned and left me. The one who said that he was sick at home today was the strategist Fu Zhi and Tian Feng. ”

Frustrated and Tian Feng, hearing these two names, the muscles on Han Zhan's face twitched violently, and he said in his heart that in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, Frustrated Tian Feng was the two most capable strategists under Yuan Shao, especially Frustrated Confucian, after being captured by Cao Jun, even Cao Cao wanted to recruit him. You have such a good strategist under you, you don't know how to use it, it's just a tyrannical thing, no wonder you can't keep the foundation of Jizhou.

At this moment, a hoarse voice suddenly came from the door: "Father, I heard that you have returned home, and I have come to see you." Han Zhan followed the prestige, only to see a slightly immature young man walking in from outside, he was wearing a black arrow suit, holding an iron tire bow, and carrying an arrow bag on his back. Seeing Han Zhan sitting aside, he first paused for a moment, and then a surprised expression appeared on his face, "Big brother, why didn't anyone tell me when you came back?" ”

Although Han Zhan had never seen this person, from his age and dress, he guessed that this should be the second brother Han Shan. He nodded at the other party and said lightly: "I have been back for almost an hour, and I have just finished bathing, and before I have time to have dinner, I heard that my father is back, so I hurried over to say goodbye." ”

Han Shan nodded, came to Han Fu and knelt down on one knee, put the iron tire bow in his hand aside, and asked with concern, "Father, what happened to make you so depressed?" When Han Fu told him about the situation, he grabbed the iron tire bow, stood up suddenly, and said angrily: "Yuan Shao is a dog thief, he deceives people too much. My father waited here, and when I finished rushing to the state pastor's mansion, I shot Yuan Shao to death with an arrow, and my father could be the Jizhou pastor again. ”

As soon as Han Zhan came in, Han Zhan was carefully observing him. didn't find anything unusual about him, and even showed his true feelings towards Han Fu and his attitude towards himself, if all this he saw was fake, then his acting skills would be enough to win the Oscar, if there was an Oscar in the Three Kingdoms.

Seeing Han Shan's bad luck when he turned around and was about to go to find Yuan Shao, Han Zhan hurriedly got up and hugged him, and said loudly: "Second brother, don't be reckless. Yuan Shao's troops are very extensive, and if you break through single-handedly like this, you will hit a stone with an egg. ”

Han Shan threw the iron tire bow in his hand to the ground, and said angrily: "Big brother, are we just watching our father be humiliated by Yuan Shao's dog thief?" ”

"It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years," Han Zhan let go of Han Shan, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder, and said: "Even if we want to wash away my father's shame, we can't rush for a while, we have to wait patiently for the opportunity, and when the time is ripe, we will give Yuan Shao a thunderous blow." ”
