Chapter 218: Choice

At this point, Fan Zhongming was completely able to understand Yu Zizhen, so he didn't have any emotions about Yu Zizhen's words first.

In case someone can't see the situation clearly and affect others, Fan Zhongming solemnly told his family after he went back:

"I found a friend to send you out of Beijing, and he will send someone to pick you up tomorrow."

"On the way, you have to listen to the words of the escort, you will follow when people say to go, and you will stop when they say stop, don't question, don't make trouble, and don't shout bitterness and tiredness."

"If it comes to the time when you need to give up your wealth to save your life, don't give up the little floating wealth around you, the most important thing is that people can live."

Fan Ting never expected that his grandson would exert such great energy at a critical moment, allowing the old and weak women and children in the family to escape, and of course he didn't want them to die in the political struggle with him.

He asked Fan Zhongming, "Your friend, is he sure about dealing with those soldiers outside the mansion?" ”

There are so many people, and all of them are fully armed and have distinct armor, where can they deal with idlers.

Fan Zhongming glanced at his grandfather, "Since he agreed, he will definitely do it." He's the one who never says anything he's not sure about. ”

After a pause, he added, "He also asked me to ask my grandfather and father if I would like to return home with my grandmother." ”

From the bottom of his heart, he hoped that his grandfather and father would not be so stubborn, but he also knew that as the head of the Fan family, Fan Ting would definitely not leave with the old and weak women and children in the family.

He can't retreat, because as long as he retreats, the Lu clan will definitely convict him as a "fugitive", and then directly take the entire Lu clan under the knife.

It was impossible for Fan Ting to give them a chance to take advantage of his family, so after Fan Zhongming said this, he smiled lightly and slowly shook his head at the old wife who was looking at him expectantly.

"Your father and I can't go." He said.

Mrs. Fan's last glimmer of hope was shattered, and her tears couldn't help but flow, but she couldn't help herself cry.

As the patriarch of the Fan clan, Mrs. Fan understood why her husband and son could not go.

The son is the so-called "mastermind behind the scenes" who was bitten out by the dead, and the husband is the old man of the court, and he is one of the auxiliary ministers appointed by the emperor himself.

"From now on, the Fan clan will be handed over to you." Fan Ting looked at his eldest grandson with a loving face, "You are even better than I imagined, with a grandson like this, the old man can smile even if he dies." ”

Fan Zhongming was stunned, "You, you are"

Fan Ting nodded, "I plan to let you go with your grandmother and them." ”

This is the successor he has carefully cultivated, and he is the future patriarch of the Fan clan that he has already set, but whenever there is a chance to get him out of trouble, Fan Ting will of course immediately seize the opportunity to send him away.

Even if he had known that Fan Zhongming had the ability to get out of the Fan Mansion by himself, he would not let Fan Zhongming stupidly return to the net.

In his heart, the contribution that his grandson can make to the family is much greater than the other children and grandchildren in his family combined.

Don't blame him for being cold-blooded, he actually put the "life" of his blood relatives on the other side of the "value", as a qualified head of the family, he just put the continuation of the family before the love of his children.

Fan Ting handed over the seal letter of the head of the family, which symbolized his identity as the patriarch of the Fan clan, to Fan Zhongming, "From this moment on, you are the patriarch of the Fan clan, and in the future, whether it is your uncle or those clan elders of the side branches, you can only control and dispatch them as the head of the family." ”

This is not an easy job to do, especially since his grandson is not yet twenty years old, and there are dozens of old people in the clan who are higher than his Fan Ting, and these old bones, his grandson has to call his great-grandfather.

This is not good among the clansmen, although the patriarch is the head of a sect, but those guys who rely on the old and sell the old by blood relationship, even if he is a high-ranking patriarch, he can't really give no face at all, not to mention that his grandson is just a young man without an official position.

Fan Ting could almost foresee that without him and his eldest son to help Fan Zhongming suppress the formation, Fan Zhongming would definitely suffer a lot of trouble after returning to his hometown.

However, he was not worried that Fan Zhongming would not be able to cope with it, and he did not say that his old wife was still alive, but only said that Fan Zhongming's mother was also a powerful family lineage.

and his second son and eldest daughter, who will also give Fan Zhongming some help in the future.

With the help of his maternal grandfather's family, great-grandfather's family, his own uncle, and his own aunt, Fan Zhongming only suffered a little at most.

Where can Fan Zhongming stand this, he didn't count himself in the crowd of people who left from the beginning.

The handsome young man who hadn't cried for more than ten years knelt on the ground holding his grandfather's knees, crying tears all over his face.

Yu Zizhen, who listened to the relay of the little milk voice system, sighed, "Master Fan, this is too pedantic, Lu Tong and Xiao Lu's father and daughter are clearly not planning to use the fighting methods of cultural people such as verbal battles and intrigue, why is he still waiting for the results of the trial in Jingzhao Mansion?" ”

In Yu Zizhen's view, the most taboo thing in life is to stick to the rules and remain unchanged, if Fan Ting is replaced by her, she will never use the same set of standards to deal with her enemies.

The enemy is a gentleman, she may not necessarily use the gentleman's standard to fight back, the enemy is a villain, but she will definitely take the villain's path, so that the villain has no way out.

Yes, she doesn't mind lowering her moral standards in order to deal with despicable villains.

According to her observation, although the family is not in charge of the military, not all the soldiers around the capital are in the hands of the Lu family.

Those generals who have not yet been killed or collected by the Lu clan must be in the same difficult situation as the Fan family at this time.

Yu Zizhen felt that instead of waiting to be broken one by one, it was better for them to join forces and kill the Lu clan first.

What she doesn't know is that the people of the family have their own arrogance, they are actually already a powerful class like the Lu family, but because of their shallow background, they don't look down on the official eunuch family that they regard as "mud legs", where can they look down on those martial artists who are indeed "mud legs" and can only fight and kill?

And those who are in charge of the army, they have always avoided the family.

Not to mention that people look down on them, they won't come forward to make fun of themselves, just say that if there is really a person from a family who comes to get close to them, then they will consider that there must be a demon when things go wrong, and they will definitely only suspect that the other party has a bad idea, and they want to calculate that they are still thinking about each other's good.

It can only be said that the estrangement between the gentry that has accumulated over hundreds of years is really not so easy to eliminate.
