Joy of Life: Grandmaster of the Fan Family

At the gate of Qing Kingdom's capital, a team of horse-drawn carriages moved in an orderly manner.

On both sides of the carriage were the most elite soldiers of the Qing Kingdom.

Even the luxury of the carriage itself is incomparable to other grades of carriages.

There were a lot of people gathered at the city gate.

Among them were all the civil and military officials of Qing Kingdom, headed by the new emperor Li Chengqian.

The people around saw such a spectacular scene and stretched their necks to watch.

"Who is coming today? Even when the soldiers returned victoriously, it was not as grand as this one?"

The biggest event in Qing State before was the battle between them and Northern Qi. Under the leadership of the Great Qing God of War Fan Bin, they annexed one and a half states of Northern Qi in one go.

It is said that if Emperor Qing had not given the order, their God of War Daqing would have led his soldiers and marched all the way to the capital of Northern Qi.

Although in recent years, because of the strong national strength, the soldiers under his command are brave.

Daqing had always held a considerable advantage in its struggle with Northern Qi, but this advantage was by no means overwhelming.

Overall, the two countries fought back and forth.

It was not until Fan Bin led the troops that they annexed such a large territory in one go, which established Daqing's position as the strongest country.

After that, Daqing will be the only one who can unify the world.

The most spectacular scene that impressed people before was the scene where Fan Bin and his soldiers returned to Qing State to be conferred the title.

At that time, when they looked at the brave soldiers of Qing State, a feeling of pride arose in their hearts.

So much so that even now, many people in Kyoto are still deeply impressed by it.

Now, they were surprised to find that there seemed to be another group of people coming.

Moreover, this scene, at least the scale of the reception, was much grander than the previous one.

His Majesty came to greet them personally, and there were so many civil and military officials. It seemed that all the important people in Kyoto had come to the city gate.

How can this not make people who don't know the truth confused?

"Brother, you are not from Kyoto, right?"

Hearing the man's question, a scholar-looking man next to him waved the folding fan in his hand and made an assertion.

"My dear brother, you have a keen eye. I have indeed just come from Jiangnan. Could you please give me some advice?"

"That's my guess. Otherwise, how could you not know that I, the God of War of Daqing, have returned!"

"The God of War of Daqing, Fan Bin?"

Upon hearing this name, the pupils of the person who asked the question first widened.

"Didn't they say that this God of War had died in Mount Dadong?"

"Bullshit! What is the identity of our Daqing God of War? What is his strength? How can a mere Dadong Mountain trap him?"

No matter what the people of Kyoto thought before?

To this day, he insists that these are all rumors.

Their Daqing God of War, the best fighter in the world, known as the invincible grandmaster, how could he die on the Dadong Mountain for no reason?

"Didn't you see that His Majesty led all the civil and military officials to personally welcome him? If it weren't for me, the War God of Daqing, who else in this world would have such a big face?"

Everyone spoke very decisively about this issue.

This is indeed the case, although there is more than one grandmaster in the world.

However, the only person who could have their Majesty personally come to greet him and have him wait at the city gate early was Fan Bin.

It is obvious that other grand masters cannot have such weight and are not qualified.

The carriage came all the way to the presence of civil and military officials.

Li Chengqian, who had just ascended the throne of Emperor Qing, saluted directly to Fan Bin's carriage.

"Welcome to the Duke of Protectorate!"

The emperor has surrendered, and there is no such ridiculous thing in the whole world.

As the emperor's subordinates, what else could the civil and military officials do? They all knelt on the ground and paid homage to Fan Bin's carriage.

"Welcome to the Duke of Protectorate!"

Wang Buer was not in the carriage at this time, but sat on the frame, driving the carriage.

When he saw Li Chengqian bowing towards him, Wang Buer's brain almost short-circuited.

It would have been fine if I had just written a letter before. Even if everyone knew about it, I could have pretended to turn a blind eye.

Now, he actually saluted directly to his master in front of all the civil and military officials in the court?

This is almost putting their adults on the fire.

"grown ups?"

Wang Buer's brain short-circuited, but he did not forget to greet Fan Bin.

Fan Bin opened the curtain of the car door, walked out of the car, and then looked down at Li Chengqian and the civil and military officials who came to greet him.

In addition to Chen Pingping, the second prince Li Chengze, Prime Minister Lin Ruofu, and Grand Master Ye Liuyun.

A lot of things that should have come and shouldn’t have come came.

This also included Fan Xian, who was winking at him in the crowd.

It is said that a man can bend and stretch.

Li Chengqian, who has now ascended the throne, can actually bow to me and adopt such a humble attitude?
This was something Fan Bin didn't expect.

Now, not only the civil and military officials in the court, but also the people of Kyoto who are watching, are waiting for Fan Bin’s reaction.

Fan Bin smiled, took the initiative to reach out and help Li Chengqian up.

"Your Highness, I am sorry to trouble you."

Although Fan Bin had a smile on his face, everyone's face was moved when he said this.

Every one of the civil and military officials in this court is extremely intelligent.

They quickly realized that although Fan Bin did not turn against them, he did not recognize Li Chengqian's status either.

"How dare you! This is our Majesty..."

Behind Li Chengqian, there followed a young eunuch.

When the eunuch heard that his master was being humiliated, he immediately widened his eyes and wanted to correct it.

"Where did this fly come from? How dare it make such a noise here? Kill it!"

The smile on Fan Bin's face disappeared, and he immediately looked like the King of Hell running out of hell.

The civil and military officials around also felt a chill all over their bodies.

A man immediately stepped out of Fan Bin's motorcade. He was a burly man with agile movements.

He covered the little eunuch's mouth with one of his big hands, and then used his other hand to press the back of his head and twist it.

"Crack!"

After a crisp sound, the little eunuch who had just been glaring angrily died instantly.

Then the burly figure grabbed the little eunuch into his arms and dragged him away from everyone's sight.

"Your Highness, and all the others, please stand up quickly."

After all this was done, a smile reappeared on Fan Bin's face. But at this time, the civil and military officials in the court dared not relax at all.

Facing the newly enthroned Emperor Qing, Fan Bin actually killed his chief steward?

The key point is that Li Chengqian did not dare to say a word from beginning to end. Even when Fan Bin smiled at him again, Li Chengqian smiled back at Fan Bin.

"too frightening!"

"Our Daqing God of War is really different from the past."

Many officials present had dealt with Fan Bin before.

In their impression, the Daqing War God was extremely capable and had superb martial arts skills. Apart from his somewhat martial arts-obsessed personality and his love of picking fights with people everywhere, there was really nothing wrong with him.

But now it seems that their previous understanding of this Daqing God of War was too one-sided after all.

Before he reached his current level of strength, Fan Bin would never have acted so high-profile.

But now, he seemed to no longer care about those worldly views.

He did not recognize Li Chengqian's identity, which meant that he would most likely have to change the emperor of Qing Kingdom.

Of course, civil and military officials could not stand this.

But there was no point in being dissatisfied. Even the masters in the Censorate dared not stand up at this time.

The Fan Bin they are facing at this moment is too strong!
It was so powerful that they couldn't contend with it. "Let's go back to the city first."

After Fan Bin got off the carriage, he did not return to it, but walked to the front of everyone.

Li Chengqian followed behind him obediently, looking not like an emperor at all, but rather like Fan Bin's subordinate.

After him came Fan Xian and officials from the six ministries.

Fan Xian looked at Fan Bin who was walking to the front of the team, and felt quite proud.

Even though he is already a grandmaster, he has the help of Si Gu Jian and Wu Zhu.

It should be no problem for them to act arrogantly in Qing Kingdom with such power.

But the current capital of Qing Kingdom is no longer the same.

Even with Fan Xian's current strength, he still has to be cautious.

As soon as his elder brother arrived, all problems seemed to be solved.

Li Chengqian, who had originally refused to leave the palace no matter what, now ran out obediently and became the meat on the chopping board.

"Let you be so arrogant..."

Fan Xian was not the only one who felt relieved, but also many officials who disliked Li Chengqian.

There are many people who are unhappy with Li Chengqian during this period.

As soon as Fan Bin entered the city, he saw people lining up on both sides of the avenue to welcome him.

"Mars!"

"Fan Bin!!!"

"Lord God of War, mighty and powerful!!"

"Grandmaster Fan!!!"

People were calling out Fan Bin's name, or the name of the God of War.

They were holding flower baskets, and some were holding fruits, which they wanted to take the initiative to present to Fan Bin.

However, the guards on both sides were loyal to their duties and did not give them such an opportunity.

They could only raise the gifts in their hands and try to attract Fan Bin's attention.

Fan Bin smiled and waved at everyone.

As he waved his hand, the people cheered even louder.

"With the Lord God of War here, Northern Qi is nothing but a clown."

"Sooner or later, the iron hoofs of our Daqing will surely crush the capital of Northern Qi."

"Of course, our God of War is an invincible Grandmaster!"

……

This kind of team is not just a small group.

From the time they entered the city to the gate of Fan Mansion, it was a full seven or eight miles.

There was never a shortage of people on both sides of the road.

Some people knelt down and prayed, some tried to give gifts, and some waved their arms and cheered...

Almost everyone's attention was on Fan Bin.

Li Chengqian, who had already ascended the throne, was clearly not far behind Fan Bin, but he seemed transparent.

The civil and military officials who followed behind them also truly felt for the first time that Daqing's God of War Fan Bin was so popular?

Isn’t there a rumor that he killed Emperor Qing?

It is impossible for the people not to know this.

But the people of Qing Kingdom didn't seem to care about this at all. They welcomed Fan Bin sincerely.

No matter how cunning Li Chengqian was, his eyes darkened when he saw this scene.

Although it was not up to these peasants to decide who would become Emperor Qing, Fan Bin's popularity among the people still aroused Li Chengqian's vigilance.

"Your Highness, thank you for your hard work in protecting me all the way. Fan Bin just returned home and he is very tired. I will not receive you. When I have time, Fan Bin will visit you."

The gate of the Fan family can already be seen.

Fan Bin turned around and said to Li Chengqian.

"Then the Lord Protector of the Country will take a rest. I will go back first..."

Li Chengqian forced a smile, but that smile looked uglier than crying.

Fan Xian was not far behind him and could just see the expression on Li Chengqian's face.

This prince does not know the name and story of Emperor Xian of Han yet. Otherwise, he would have been able to become a close friend of Emperor Xian of Han across generations.

Li Chengqian left Fan Bin's sight, and the anger on his face could no longer be suppressed.

"His Majesty……"

The young eunuchs in the palace were all silent.

The process that Fan Bin had previously dealt with their chief steward was just like cleaning up garbage.

Not to mention the civil and military ministers, even Li Chengqian's close attendants were nervous.

Become an enemy of such a Fan family and such a Fan Bin.

Do they really have a chance of winning?

Li Chengqian was not unaware of his subordinates' thoughts.

But he couldn't control it.

Today, Li Chengqian went to meet Fan Bin at the risk of losing his head.

Li Chengqian didn't even bring the temple messenger.

Before Li Chengqian left, he had simulated various situations in his mind. For example, would Fan Bin attack him directly?

Li Chengqian believes that Fan Bin is unlikely to do so.

In front of all the civil and military officials in the court, he directly killed the new generation Emperor Qing.

Even if the Fan family succeeds in usurping the throne, they will be nailed to the pillar of shame in history.

And no one can rescue them.

Let’s not talk about it for now, does Fan Bin dare to do it?

Fan Bin had no reason to do that. If he wanted to seize the throne, he could have done it step by step. There was no need to create so much trouble for himself and the entire Fan family.

Only after making sure that he would not die did Li Chengqian muster up the courage to go and greet him.

Even if he had to pretend to be timid and lie dormant, as long as he could delay Fan Bin for a while and prevent Fan Bin from attacking him.

Li Chengqian felt that everything he did was worth it.

I didn't expect that the devil is always higher than the good.

As soon as Fan Bin came down, he refused to acknowledge his identity. No one in the court, including his own direct subordinates, questioned him.

The only eunuch who raised his voice to question was also executed by Fan Bin. In addition, there were the common people on both sides of the road.

Thinking of those people, the sincerity in their eyes.

Li Chengqian felt as if someone had stabbed him hard in the chest and the blood was flowing profusely.

"I know that I am no match for him at this stage!"

Although Li Chengqian had anticipated this.

But before Fan Bin returned, he was still able to compete with the Fan family.

Even though Fan Xian had become a grandmaster and had two grandmasters guarding him, Li Chengqian was still able to fight against Fan Xian on equal terms.

This achievement made Li Chengqian extremely proud.

He once thought that he could change a lot of things now, but he didn't expect that in Fan Bin's eyes, he was still nothing.

Even the dragon throne he was already sitting on did not seem to belong to him.

"Calm down! Just delay it for three months, three months!"

"The insult I suffered today will be returned a hundredfold in the future!"
