Chapter Thirty-Eight: Self-inflicted iniquity
However, after thinking about it, Cao Cao felt that it was best to come forward as a middleman to resolve the contradiction between Fan Xiwen and Yuan Benchu. So, Cao Cao decided to go to the Dragon Gate Inn in person.
In addition to Cao Cao worrying about Fan Xiwen here, Fan Xiwen himself did not take Yuan Shao in his eyes, in Fan Xiwen's eyes, Yuan Shao is a straw bag, do you have to be afraid of a straw bag. It's just that Fan Xiwen seems to have forgotten that Yuan Shao is the head snake in this capital, and the power of the Yuan family behind Yuan Shao in the capital is extremely huge.
If Yuan Shao wants to deal with Fan Xiwen now, then Fan Xiwen will definitely not have good fruits to eat. It's just that Fan Xiwen doesn't seem to think of this, even if he thinks of this, Fan Xiwen won't care, it's a big deal to go back immediately to recruit soldiers and horses to defend his land. If you want Fan Xiwen to be angry with others, I'm afraid Fan Xiwen doesn't have this good temper yet. Fan Xiwen has always believed that people are equal, and a person who only knows how to rely on the shadow of his ancestors to be arrogant is not qualified to accept Fan Xiwen's equal attention.
In the end, Fan Xiwen and Huzi decided not to buy clothes, not because they were afraid of making a fool of themselves, but because Fan Xiwen suddenly thought of one thing, that is, the "ally" Chen family is doing these businesses. As long as Fan Xiwen goes to say the last sentence, then the other party will definitely take the initiative to send the clothes to the door obediently.
I'm not going to buy clothes, but I can't go out for nothing. So Fan Xiwen and Huzi wandered around. This visit was an afternoon, and after Fan Xiwen saw the customs of the capital, it was not early. However, the achievements of the two are still brilliant, and most of Luoyang has visited almost everywhere except for some very famous places such as: the palace, the mansions of princes and nobles, the land of fireworks, etc. Men shopping is different from women, and it is a kind of torture for women to go shopping, because women like to look around; A man's shopping is also a kind of torture for his feet, because today Fan Xiwen has traveled all the way to most of Luoyang, and Huzi's feet have long been sore.
The two of them were dizzy and physically and mentally exhausted after shopping for a long time, and they had already planned to go back. But suddenly they found that there were a lot of people gathered in one place in front of them, and the two were very curious, so they squeezed through the crowd and went in to see what was going on. I struggled to walk in, but I didn't see anything interesting.
Fan Xiwen felt very strange in his heart, how could so many people come here? It's not a good place, isn't it just an inn, what's so good. Then Fan Xiwen was stupid, this is the inn, the Dragon Gate Inn. This inn is nothing to look at, but there is a great talent in it, called Fan Xiwen.
Fan Xiwen immediately hid his face, for fear that others would recognize him. It's just that Fan Xiwen is purely covering his ears and stealing the bell, and no one has suspected him yet, because everyone has only heard of Fan Xiwen's name and has not seen Fan Xiwen himself. It's good that Fan Xiwen didn't hide his face, but now when he hides his face, it suddenly makes people suspicious.
The people standing here are all scholars, many of whom are clever, and when they saw Fan Xiwen hiding their faces, they were immediately overjoyed, knowing that the person in front of them was the main person who had been waiting here for nearly a day. Earlier, Fan Xiwen sent people to block the Longmen Inn, and there were no guests, so that the group of scholars outside waited hard, always thinking that they couldn't see their idols, so they couldn't help but be a little disappointed. Now that he guessed that the person in front of him was Fan Xiwen, he was excited, and immediately shouted loudly.
One of them even ran to Fan Xiwen's side and said to Fan Xiwen tremblingly: "Fan Le'an came to Beijing this time, but it is so hard to wait for Xiaosheng." The resentful words almost made Fan Xiwen want to cry, because all the scholars focused their eyes on Fan Xiwen, whether they guessed Fan Xiwen's identity or didn't guess Fan Xiwen's identity.
"Eh, this son, you have recognized the wrong person, you are not Lord Fan Xiwen of Nale An Ling, you are only one of his admirers, and I am here to meet him today." Fan Xiwen watched everyone's eyes focus on him, and his scalp couldn't help but feel a little numb. Although three women are in one play, and ten women are stronger than a hundred ducks, Fan Xiwen feels that if you want to be strong, you have to be strong in front of you. If they think that they are Fan Xiwen later, then you can imagine so many people saying a word to me, and all the gods and ducks will stand aside.
"You said you weren't Fan Le'an, so why did you hide your face?" The scholar who spoke just now was obviously not so easy to be fooled, and seeing that Fan Xiwen refused to admit it, he decided to be a case judge to conduct a strict interrogation of Fan Xiwen, and he must correct Fan Xiwen's tail, no, flaws.
"This, this." Fan Xiwen was a little speechless, yes, why do you have to hide your face when you are so dignified, isn't this asking for trouble and asking for trouble.
"What? Childe is speechless, isn't Childe still unwilling to admit that he is Lord Le'an Lingfan? The gentleman smiled, as if he had done a great deed. Yes, what a commendable thing to find out the right master for so many compatriots who were waiting at the door of the Dragon Gate Inn.
"Nonsense, I was just too excited just now, so I just hid my face in order not to let Sven sweep the floor." Fan Xiwen quibbled, and at the same time was ready to run away, but there were so many people here. Fan Xiwen really didn't have much confidence to escape. In fact, in Fan Xiwen's heart, the best way is to adhere to the true meaning of "confessing and suffering and resisting chic".
If Fan Xiwen runs away, so everything is revealed, so many people can see Fan Xiwen's appearance clearly, and it is not good that Fan Xiwen is still a master of painting, and Fan Xiwen is wanted by the whole city, it will be a tragedy for Fan Xiwen. On the contrary, as long as Fan Xiwen doesn't admit it, and holds on to the patrol team holding Jin Wuwei or finds an excuse to slip away, everything is still like this, at least Fan Xiwen can still cower in the Longmen Inn.
There is no way, Fan Xiwen really has a shadow in his heart, just this morning's huge scene, Fan Xiwen really didn't have the courage to experience it again.
"Then why is Brother Tai excited?" This scholar is not giving up, Fan Xiwen's hesitation just now made the affirmation in the scholar's heart continue to deepen, but Fan Xiwen's mouth is too hard, it seems to be a tough battle.
"Just now, Lord Le'an Ling decided to meet with him, and he was in Lord Le'anling's room, this is a good thing that he dreamed of, how can he not be excited. See, it's the guard sent by Lord Le'an to pick him up. Fan Xiwen smiled and pointed to Huzi who was standing seriously on the side and said.
