Seeing the government soldiers who were about to arrest him, the burly young man felt anxious and pulled out his hand, and the two government soldiers flew out in an instant.
"My lords, I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, but have you made a mistake? I'm obviously a victim, so why did you arrest me instead?"
The captain of the imperial army was dumbfounded. He pointed at the young man’s nose and cursed:
"You dare to hinder our errands, you must be a thug..."
Besides, do you think we are stupid? You stand while they lie down, and you still dare to tell us that you are a victim?
At this time, the team leader was also a little bit stuck. He knew that they should have encountered a tough fight, but he still wanted to bluff.
Regardless of the burly young man's skill, he is not afraid, because no matter how good your skill is, you will not dare to resist the court!
As long as the young man follows him, when he arrives at the government office and the shackles are put on him, he is not allowed to knead him as much as he wants.
"Master, it's true that they grabbed my pheasant first. I just pushed them a little. The conflict with the officials just now was purely a misunderstanding."
Although he is young, he is still reasonable and knows that no matter whether he is justified or not, he must never fight against the soldiers again, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable.
"You said they robbed you by force? Do you have any evidence? I also said that you have no regard for the imperial court and want to rebel!"
"They can all vouch for me. Many people have seen it."
"Testify, hum, let's see who dares!"
The middle-aged butler dusted himself off and stood up, looking at the onlookers with contempt.
Immediately, the crowd watching the excitement took a few steps back, and no one dared to stand up.
There's no way around it. Anyone who lives in the West Market knows what's going on, and many people have suffered from it.
Testify, but who dares! Unless you don't want to make a living here.
As the crowd of spectators retreated, the positions of Yang Fan and Wu Zhao stood out, making them particularly conspicuous.
Team Zheng and the middle-aged housekeeper just glanced at them and didn't pay attention.
Because Yang Fan and the others were not very luxuriously dressed, and they looked young, and there were no servants following them.
Such a combination will naturally not attract their attention.
Looking at the retreating crowd, their eyes were full of unwillingness, but they did not dare to speak out. Team Zheng felt deeply that he was standing wisely.
"Stop talking nonsense, come with us, and if you dare to resist again, you will be considered a rebel. As for whether you are guilty or not, it is up to you, the adults, to decide!"
"Master, I, Xue Li, swear to God, they were the ones who snatched my pheasant first, and they were the ones who made the first move!"
Seeing the behavior of the onlookers, the young man was stunned for a moment and also a little anxious.
"Hmph, if the oath is useful, why would we use our soldiers, and why would we need Wang Fa? Take it away!"
"Wait a minute, I can testify that this is how your soldiers do things. Do you want me to talk to your Lordships?"
Hearing the word Xue Li, Yang Fan suddenly thought of something.
But if it was that person, shouldn't he be in Jiangzhou at this time?
There is no time to think too much, save it first and then talk about it.
The soldiers who were about to arrest people again were dumbfounded and could only look at the leader.
Dui Zheng frowned, obviously not recognizing Yang Fan.
But no matter who it is, as long as it is a lord, it is not something that his small army can provoke.
What's more, they are obviously being unreasonable.
So he cupped his fists and asked:
"My lordship is..."
"My lordship is Yang Fan, the founding uncle of Wannian County who has just been ennobled by His Majesty..."
Hearing this, the surrounding crowd suddenly became restless, whispering together in twos and threes.
"This is County Count Wannian, so young!"
"The Wannian county uncle provided the court with methods to prevent the smallpox plague, and he was the reincarnation of the Bodhisattva."
…
The expressions of the captain and the middle-aged housekeeper changed when they heard this.
They didn't expect that they would encounter such a giant Buddha in this crowded West Market.
This Kaiguo County Bodhisattva has just been ennobled by His Majesty.
Every time the imperial court confers a knighthood, a royal list will be posted, so they will naturally know about it.
You should know that after His Majesty ascended the throne and granted many ministers a large number of titles, except for those with great military exploits, he rarely granted any more titles.
Naturally, the man who presented the method of preventing the smallpox plague was conferred the title of earl by the court, which immediately caused a sensation in the world.
Many people even call Yang Fan a living Bodhisattva.
Team Leader and the middle-aged housekeeper looked at each other, somewhat helplessly.
People like them can bully ordinary people, but they would never dare to do anything when they meet a real nobleman.
Although Yang Fan is known as the Living Bodhisattva among many people, in the eyes of Chang'an Xungui, this is a real hammer.
After all, in order to seek justice for a woman, she broke into the Duke's house angrily and slapped the Duke!
What is this kind of person if not a stick?
The most surprising thing was that after the beating, nothing happened to him, but the Duke was grounded for a month.
This matter has been widely spread in Chang'an City.
If it is really this man, they have really touched the tiger's butt!
But we can't show that we bully the weak, fear the strong, or fear the powerful, otherwise how will we be able to maintain order in the future.
So Team Zheng could only bite the bullet and said:
"Wei Quangui, the captain of the Chang'an County government's military squadron, has met the count."
This strong man obstructed the execution of errands and injured government soldiers. If we let him go like this, where would the majesty of the court be?
Yang Fan laughed out loud when he saw that Wei dignitaries were unwilling to give up and wanted to use the court to put pressure on themselves.
"You, a small military leader, cannot represent the imperial court."
What's more, you know the reason very well. If you continue to mess around, don't blame me for being rude.
After speaking, he raised his fist.
Seeing Lord Yang Fan taking the lead, the crowd of onlookers was no longer afraid, and was suddenly aroused with righteous indignation.
"Yes, the housekeeper of Duke Huo's mansion got there first."
"This young man is not guilty."
"We support County Uncle Wannian."
…
Seeing the public outrage, Fu Bing did not dare to say anything. After all, compared with face and own safety, safety is of course the most important.
I can only leave in disgrace.
At this time, the young man finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If the Sir Alex Ferguson hadn't spoken out in front of me today, he would have been jailed for a few days, so he cupped his fists and bowed in thanks:
"Thank you very much, Sir. Your Excellency, Xue Li, named Rengui. I have just arrived in Chang'an. I am grateful to Sir for your generous help. I am very grateful to you."
The burly young man in front of him turned out to be Xue Rengui, the famous general of the Tang Dynasty who later became famous all over the world. Yang Fan was so excited that he couldn't help but fall into memories.
Xue Rengui, Ming Li, courtesy name Rengui, was born in 614 BC. He was born in the southern ancestor of the Xue family in Hedong. He was a descendant of Xue Andu, a famous general in the Northern Wei Dynasty during the Southern and Northern Dynasties.
The Xue family fell into decline due to the early death of Xue Gui. When Xue Rengui was a boy, his family was poor and his status was humble, and he made a living by farming.
When he was thirty years old, Xue Rengui was preparing to move the graves of his ancestors. His wife Liu persuaded him:
"You have outstanding talents. Now the emperor is personally campaigning in Liaodong to recruit brave generals. This is a rare opportunity. Why not strive to become famous? It is not too late to return home and bury you after you become rich."
Xue Rengui agreed, so he went to see General Zhang Shigui and entered the army.
He fought for decades in his life, and left behind stories such as his good strategy to end the war, his three arrows to anchor the Tianshan Mountains, his bravery to conquer Liaodong, his love for the people in Xiangzhou City, and his removal of his hat to retreat from all enemies. He can be called a famous general in ancient times.
Xue Rengui is a late bloomer. After all, in an era when the average life expectancy is only over 40 years old, joining the army at the age of 30 is considered very late.
It is now the tenth year of Zhenguan (636 BC), and he should be only twenty-one or two years old. Shouldn't he be farming at home at this time?
Why did you come to Chang'an City?
Is it the butterfly flapping its wings that causes the butterfly effect, or is this simply the Tang Dynasty in a parallel world?
Looking at the dazed Yang Fan, Wu Zhao gently tugged at the corner of his clothes. Only then did he come back to his senses and replied apologetically:
"Ren Gui, you are so polite. From your accent, you shouldn't be from Chang'an. Why are you living here?"
It turned out that Xue Rengui came to visit his relatives, and the smallpox plague was spreading. His relatives and his family were not spared, so they had to go to Chang'an City to escape.
After the imperial court had brought the smallpox epidemic under control, all the money was spent and the wife fell ill and was bedridden.
Since he had no money for medical treatment, he had no choice but to go out hunting to raise money, which led to what he had just experienced.
After listening to Xue Rengui's story, Yang Fan couldn't help but sigh, the world is so unpredictable that it's really hard for a penny to stump a hero!
On second thought, Yang Fan was thinking about how to conquer this future famous general of the Tang Dynasty.
After making a big fuss in the Duke's Mansion, he found that the background of his family was much worse than that of the distinguished family.
In order to give yourself and your family the ability to protect themselves, you must strengthen safety precautions and establish a security team without delay.
But good talents are not so easy to find. Now that I met Xue Rengui by chance, of course I wanted to take advantage of him.
If he gave money directly and acted recklessly, wouldn't it be obvious to Xue Rengui that he had other intentions?
In the end, either Xue Rengui will be regarded as a fool, or he will be politely rejected. Who of the smart people will accept it?
If the words to testify for him just now were a sign of drawing a sword to help him when the situation was rough, then the offer of money now for no reason was simply a sign of Sima Zhao's intentions that everyone knew, and he would be rejected without even thinking about it.
