When Fan Wuzhao was woken up from his sleep by his servant, he was still a little confused. It wasn't until the servants said that Mr. Nan from Pingyang Marquis' Mansion was here that his eyes suddenly became clear.
Nanguan is Xiao Yunyue's personal guard. If it is not important news, Xiao Yunyue will not let him deliver the message.
"Is there any important military information? Or is there something unusual happening outside the pass?" Fan Wuzhao hurriedly put on his clothes and came out. Before he could fasten his belt, he asked after seeing Nanguan.
Nanguan was as taciturn and expressionless as ever. But this time Fan Wuzhao always felt that there was a feeling on Nanguan's face that he was reluctant to speak.
Just when Fan Wuzhao felt a little strange, Nanguan said: "Master Hou urgently sends you a message to go to the Hou Mansion and your wife."
As soon as these words came out, Fan Wuzhao became even more confused. If it was an emergency military situation, he should be sent there, why would he bring his wife with him?
Thinking of this, his expression suddenly changed.
Fan Wuzhao knew that since Xiao Yunyue came back, Fan Ruyi had been pestering him to take him to Pingyang Hou Mansion. But Fan Wuzhao knew what his daughter was thinking, and when he came back this time, Xiao Yunyue confessed that he had a crush on him.
In order to make Fan Ruyi give up as soon as possible and to prevent her from causing trouble, Fan Wuzhao made her stay in the house and not allow her to go out casually.
It's just that these days, he has been busy in the military, and this ban is obviously not implemented very well.
Fan Wuzhao glanced at the attendant beside him and said solemnly: "Go and ask Madam to come out. And, where is Ruyi?"
This attendant obviously knew that Fan Ruyi was often out of the house during these days. Hearing Fan Wuzhao's question, he showed some shyness and embarrassment on his face.
Fan Wuzhao knew the answer just by looking at this expression. He had a bad temper and was about to get angry, but Nanguan interrupted him.
"Master Fan." Nanguan's tone was calm, but he was very helpless in his heart. It wasn't that he wanted to care about Fan Wuzhao teaching his servants a lesson, but he was very aware of his master's temper.
Xiao Yunyue's temper and patience were extremely poor in these matters. If Fan Wuzhao couldn't catch up soon, his anger would overwhelm half of the Hou family.
"Over there with the Marquis...you'd better bring your wife over there as soon as possible." Nanguan didn't directly say that Xiao Yunyue was angry in the mansion, but the implication was very clear.
Fan Wuzhao knew that this was not the time to teach his subordinates a lesson, so he raised his eyebrows and cursed: "Why don't you go and see if Madam has packed up."
When Mrs. Fan woke up, she had already received the news from her personal nanny that Fan Ruyi was not at home. Before she could get shocked, she heard a servant coming to report, and her husband asked her to get dressed quickly and go to Pingyang Marquis Mansion with him.
Thinking about Fan Ruyi's infatuation with Xiao Yunyue in the past, and the uncharacteristic invitation to the steward of Pingyang Hou Mansion to come to the house this afternoon, Mrs. Fan suddenly had a very bad suspicion in her heart, and her hands were shaking for a while while putting on clothes. .
Mrs. Fan asked the maid to stop combing her hair in complicated styles. She combed her hair casually and hurried out.
When Fan Wuzhao saw his wife, his expression was still very bad. But remembering that this was his wife since he was a pawn, and the hard work he had put in over the years, he still suppressed his temper and just snorted.
There is no one living in Jinyun City who cannot ride a horse, even Mrs. Fan.
When the three of them rushed to the Pingyang Hou Mansion, Fan Wuzhao saw that the Pingyang Hou Mansion, which was not much different from other official residences in Jinyun City, had been guarded by the Sixteenth Cavalry of Youyun. Fan Wuzhao suddenly felt shocked. It seemed that the situation was much more serious than he imagined.
Several private guards belonging to Xiao Yunyue were separated from the sixteen cavalry. This was something that Emperor Jingyuan had already acquiesced to, and it was certainly not a secret in Jinyun City.
But Xiao Yunyue mobilized this private guard only a handful of times.
First of all, Xiao Yunyue didn't like to be special in the army. Although he had a noble status, when he was in the army, his food, clothing, housing and transportation were no different from those of his subordinates.
Secondly, the private guards are also members of the Sixteenth Cavalry of Youyun. Xiao Yunyue hoped that they could train with their military colleagues instead of garrisoning his often uninhabited mansion.
Moreover, Xiao Yunyue and Nanguan are skilled enough to deal with any crisis that may suddenly occur, and there is no need to mobilize so many people to protect him alone.
He is not married and there is no woman in the house. Xiao Yunyue doesn't like extravagance, especially in Jinyun City, he keeps everything simple. Therefore, his mansion has always hired some local servants to clean the yard, and Nanguan can arrange some trivial matters.
This was the first time in history for Xiao Yunyue to mobilize sixteen guards to guard the mansion.
Seeing Nanguan and Fan Wuzhao coming, Yi Fei, who was in charge of Xiao Yunyue's private guards, hurriedly came up to lead their horses and said urgently: "Nanguan, are you back? Go quickly, the master has just sent people to ask several times ”
When Nanguan left, he sent a flying pigeon to pass a message to the Sixteenth Guards. After receiving the letter, Yi Fei hurriedly brought his people over. Now the entire Pingyang Marquis Mansion has been taken over by this private guard.
Yi Fei followed Xiao Yunyue. Although he was not a personal guard like Nanguan who took him wherever he went, he had experienced hardships in the army with Xiao Yunyue. This was the first time that Yi Fei had seen this master lose his temper.
The person in charge of the army always needs to keep his emotions and anger hidden. The first priority when anything happens is to stay calm and rational.
Although I don't know what exactly happened in the mansion, just seeing that Xiao Yunyue ordered all the servants and stewards on duty in the mansion to be guarded tonight, I know that the matter is not trivial.
Nanguan led Fan Wuzhao and Mrs. Fan through the front hall and to the inner courtyard. He saw people from the Sixteenth Guard guarding them all the way.
Seeing that Nanguan was taking them towards the inner courtyard, Mrs. Fan's uneasiness almost materialized. Although she usually indulges Fan Ruyi, it does not mean that Mrs. Fan has no brains.
As soon as Fan Wuzhao entered the inner courtyard, he saw Xiao Yunyue standing as tall as a pine tree in the courtyard, and in front of him were the servants of the mansion who were tied up in a row.
Xiao Yunyue turned around when he heard the noise. The anger on his face had completely disappeared. After seeing Fan Wuzhao and Mrs. Fan, he stepped forward and called: "Uncle Fan."
Hearing that Xiao Yunyue was still willing to call him uncle, Fan Wuzhao felt a little relieved. It seemed that although Xiao Yunyue was angry, the situation had not reached an irreversible point.
Xiao Yunyue's eyes gently turned to the nervous Mrs. Fan's face, and then said in a cold tone: "Madam, you might as well come into my room and take a look, but I would like to ask why the fifth lady of your house is like this." Appear on my couch?”
