Just as Han Xiu stood up and was about to take a few steps forward, Bi'er's voice suddenly came from outside: "Eldest son, there are two people outside who claim to be from Luoyang asking to see you." ”

Han Xiu's footsteps suddenly stopped.

It seems that Wang Yuelan also seems to be a little disappointed.

"This matter, it is still necessary for the elder brother to explain to the concubine in the future, and now, Hugh is going to snub the people from Luoyang." Wang Yuelan lowered her head slightly, and her voice was very soft.

Han Xiu was overjoyed.

"Brother and sister, don't worry, the little brother will definitely explain to you in detail in the future."

Walking out of the house, Han Xiu glared at Bi'er fiercely, this girl really shouldn't have interrupted herself at such a time.

Back in the living room of Xilianghou Mansion, Han Xiu was still thinking about who would come from Luoyang.

The people who came were waiting outside the gate at this time.

"Your eldest son has such a big shelf, why hasn't anyone come out to greet him for so long?" One of them became impatient.

Seeing that although the two people were dressed ordinarily, they came from Luoyang from a long distance, and the people guarding the door didn't know what kind of origin they were, so they naturally didn't dare to offend.

Fortunately, at this time, there was a word from inside, asking the two to go in.

It didn't take long for the two of them to stand in front of Han Xiu's eyes.

Han Xiu stared at the face of one of the young-looking people, tried to think about it for a moment, then suddenly stood up and asked, "Isn't Gongzi Fan Xu Xian's brother under Uncle Fan Ru's knees?" ”

The young man nodded and fell to his knees on one leg.

"Fortunately, Brother Han still remembers the younger brother."

Han Xiu made an unusually surprised look and grabbed Fan Xu's hand.

"You and I often played together when we were young, but later you followed your uncle to Qingzhou. When my brother heard this, you were also recruited into the capital, why did you suddenly come here? ”

Fan Xu looked very sad.

"Brother Han didn't know, the younger brother was also forced to enter Beijing, and the Sima family was worried that my father had a different heart in Qingzhou for a long time, so he asked me to enter Beijing as a hostage, so as to coerce my father to contribute to it. Some time ago, when I heard that your second brother died in prison, my younger brother was very sad, but I didn't expect Sima Yan to ask my younger brother to enter the court to be a captain. The younger brother had a premonition that this was Sima Yan's conspiracy, but he didn't dare to refuse. Later, when he learned the truth, it turned out that Brother Han wanted to crusade against Sima Yan, and the younger brother was very moved by Brother Han's actions and was willing to help Brother Han. ”

Han Xiu felt that one of his heads was too big.

"So, the virtuous brother escaped from Luoyang? Did Sima Yan ever know that the virtuous brother had come here? ”

Fan Xu nodded.

"The younger brother met Sima Banru, the former Marquis of Yicheng, on the road, and knew that Sima Yan was mobilizing people and horses to come to fight Brother Han. Therefore, when I walked with him, I asked Brother Han to prepare in advance. ”

Another person heard Fan Xu say this, and deliberately coughed.

Han Xiu's gaze fell on Sima Banru's face.

"Is this the Marquis of Yicheng?"

Sima Banru coughed again, which counted as an answer.

Han Xiu just snorted coldly and said, "I heard that the Marquis of Yicheng was expelled from Sima's house and fled to General Chewei in Xuzhou, but General Chewei is no longer alive. Why, Hou Ye came here this time, did he think that this son had lived a long life? ”

Sima Banru was exposed, and he instantly lost the momentum just now, and smiled awkwardly.

"Although Ben Hou was kicked out of the house by his father, he must still be the brother of the current King of Jin, maybe one day the King of Jin will remember his brotherhood and ask Ben Hou to return to Beijing. It's just that I heard that General Han wanted to crusade against Sima Yan, so he came, and General Han should not be suspicious. ”

Han Xiu ignored him anymore, but in his heart, he scolded Fan Ru and Fan Xu's father and son.

Originally, he just hoped to take this opportunity to get the position of Xilianghou, but he didn't want to be disturbed by this father and son, could he really rebel?

The most unfortunate thing is that this Sima Ban Confucian, how to deal with it?

Seeing Han Xiu silent, Fan Xu was a little puzzled.

"Brother Han, do you have any concerns?"

"Brother Xian doesn't know my heart." Han Xiu shook his head and said, then turned around and instructed the two family members guarding the door, "You two should take Marquis Sima to rest for a while, and then settle down after I talk to Brother Fan Xuxian." ”

Sima Banru knew that he was now under the fence, so he had no choice but to follow the two of them out without saying a word.

Seeing Sima Banru go out, Han Xiu and Fan Xu sat on the chairs separately.

"Uncle Fan heard about me, and he has already raised troops to help me. This time, the virtuous brother is here again, and the painstaking designs of the foolish brother have been destroyed by your father and son. Han Xiu said.

"Brother Han's words, could it be that there is another hidden secret?"

Han Xiu thought about it, and then he said his true plan, but he omitted the fact that he deliberately wanted to send the messenger's lost letter and kill Han Meng.

"Brother Xian and Uncle Fan are here, they will inevitably attract Sima Yan's soldiers, and at that time, how can you and my brother be Sima Yan's opponents?"

Only then did Fan Xu understand Han Xiu's thoughts, and stood up with a snort.

"It's rare for my little brother and my father to take the risk to come to help you, but you have such thoughts? In this case, the younger brother saw the wrong person, so he left, and after finding his father, he went to Luoyang to crusade against Sima Yan. ”

Han Xiu grabbed Fan Xu.

"Brother Xian, don't worry, Uncle Fan's soldiers are already on the way here, and Brother Xian is here with Sima Banru, presumably Sima Yan will get the news soon, even if Brother Fool no longer acts, it will be difficult to escape this crime of rebellion. In this case, the foolish brother simply rebelled, if you and my brother can succeed, we will share the world in the future. ”

Han Xiu's reaction was quite fast, since the matter was irreparable, and his title as the Marquis of Xiliang was hopeless, then, it was better to really move troops, once successful, wouldn't it be a hundred times stronger than this Marquis of Xiliang.

Fan Xu sat down again.

"Brother Han is not in Beijing, I don't know the tyranny of Sima Yan's house, this person bullied the Son of Heaven and pressed the ministers, repeatedly trespassed, and killed the ministers of the court on fabricated charges for no reason. This time Brother Han's actions are in line with the younger brother's intentions, my father and son and Brother Han work together, how can it be unreasonable? ”

Han Xiu was overjoyed by these words, as if he was already the emperor at this moment.

Of course, neither he nor Fan Xu knew that Fan Ru led his troops to kill Han Xiu and save Fan Xu. However, Fan Xu's escape completely changed the rules of this game.

Sima Banru was indeed Fan Xu whom he met on the road.

Fan Xu was temporarily appointed by Sima Yan as the captain of the Xiao Cavalry, and he should have been very grateful, but he guessed that Sima Yan's mind was not here, and it was not until he heard about Han Xiu's rebellion that he suddenly realized.

Like Che Wei, he really hated Sima Yan's actions, so he escaped from the capital and planned to assist Han Xiu.

However, Sima Banru had nowhere to go after escaping from Xu Zhi's house, so he followed Fan Xu to come.

"Brother Xian, Sima Banru is an ominous person, and we must not leave this person." Han Xiu said.

Fan Xu doesn't think so.

"Sima Banru must be a member of the Sima family, Brother Han raised an army to fight against Sima Yan and had no excuse, so he could pretend to support this person, and maybe he could also use this to unite some people who were dissatisfied with Sima Yan to help. When you succeed, it's not too late to kill this person. ”

"Virtuous brother Gao Jian." Han Xiuxi said.
