Chapter 7 Summoned
The house leaks happen to rain all night, and the boat is late and encounters the headwind.Unlucky things in the world usually happen one after another, and Wang Fan's troubles are not over yet.

At the end of the month, an official from Yushitai suddenly read Wang Fan's book to the emperor, listing Wang Fan's crimes.

One is misconduct!The second is breaking the law and discipline!
The so-called misbehavior refers to non-repayment of debts, and violation of laws and disciplines refers to beating court officials.

Not only that, but there were many gossips circulating in the entire palace, talking about him in every aspect, and there was not a single good word to say.

His humble background, vulgar words and deeds, simple-mindedness, mediocre qualifications, lagging behind in studies, low morality, and bad temper...what is so difficult to hear, he has been belittled from the beginning to the end, and has even spread outside the palace.

Until His Majesty the Emperor was alarmed.

An imperial edict removed more than a dozen ministers who spread rumors in the palace from their official positions and demoted them outside the palace, and the turmoil gradually subsided.

It's just that although the discussion on the surface disappeared, it became more violent in the dark. Suddenly, the entire imperial city knew that the emperor's thirteenth son was a waste of nothing.

But Wang Fan, the person involved, seemed to be unaware of it.

In a remote and desolate courtyard in the palace, Wang Fan was standing in the middle of the courtyard, posing in some strange poses, bouncing around.

And the little maid at the side was doing similar movements skillfully.

"Stretch, one two three four, five six seven eight; two two three four, five six seven eight."

"Limb movement..."

"Shoulder movement..."

After a dazzing dance-like movement, the two sat down to rest.

"Master, are you not in a hurry, everyone is talking bad about you now." Xiaoyue remembered those people's belittling words, her little face was full of anger.

Obviously such a good master, why do those people speak ill of him? They are all bad people.

Xiaoyue felt resentful in her heart.

"Don't be angry, Xiaoyue, thanks to these people, I understand something." Wang Fan's eyes flickered, with a different emotion, and then he regained his composure, "Besides, 400 taels of debt is not forgiven. Yet?"

"Master, why don't you worry at all, although the debt has been forgiven, but this matter has spread throughout the imperial city, it is extremely bad for your reputation, and it will also affect your image in His Majesty's heart."

Naturally, it will affect the image. As the prince owed a large amount of debt, and the emperor Lao Tzu even asked the emperor to use the royal treasury to repay it. A reputation of incompetence cannot be escaped no matter what.

Wang Fan didn't mind.

He had a vague premonition that things would not be so simple.

From the beginning of Yushitai Yushi's participation in the performance, to the rumors inside and outside the palace, if there is no one behind the scenes to promote, how could the momentum be so violent in less than a month?

As for the identity of the people behind the scenes, Wang Fan also has some guesses, it is nothing more than those princes or the forces behind them.

It's just that it's unclear which force is driving it.

"I still took it lightly. I thought that acting low-key and bearing the burden of humiliation could avoid these unnecessary fights and give me enough time to upgrade." Wang Fan sighed in his heart.

Whether it was the contact with Wang Zhong, or the subsequent outbreak in Yuanyue Palace, in the eyes of others, it was a sign of rising.

In the eyes of interested people, Wang Fan and Wang Zhong are trying to win over and cultivate power; Yuan Yuedian's beating of Zhao Guanshi is to show courage and courage.

However, they never thought of the real reason for Wang Fan's outburst.

"My strength is still too weak!" Wang Fan began to reflect, "Although I have gained Honkai points for completing the mission, it cannot be converted into strength immediately, and I need to be vigilant."

"Xiaoyue, you have to be careful when you go out these two days. You should choose the main road when you walk, and don't go to those dark and secluded corners." Wang Fanqian urged.

"Understood, master." The little maid said obediently, "Master, I'm going to fetch water."

"Hey, if only my sister was one-third as well-behaved as Xiaoyue."

Watching the little maid leave the small courtyard, Wang Fan remembered some things in the earth world, with a smile on his face.

Suddenly, a loud voice rang out, breaking the tranquility of the small courtyard.

"The thirteenth prince, I'm afraid it's not good to criticize Her Highness the Princess so much?"

At some point, a tall figure appeared at the gate of the courtyard.

This is a graceful middle-aged man, with eyes as bright as the stars in the sky, a high forehead, and a dignified appearance. He is wearing a maroon official uniform with a crane embroidered on it.

Wang Fan's eyes froze, and his expression became serious involuntarily.

The official uniforms of the Tianming Dynasty are very similar to the uniforms of ancient dynasties in the Earth world.

Birds are embroidered on civil official robes, first-rank cranes, second-rank golden pheasants, third-rank peacocks, fourth-rank geese, fifth-rank white pheasants, sixth-rank mandarin ducks, seventh-rank squids, eighth-rank quails, and ninth-rank sparrows.

Military officer embroidered beasts, first-rank unicorns, second-rank lions, third-rank leopards, fourth-rank tigers, fifth-rank bears, sixth-rank bulls, seventh-rank rhinos, and ninth-rank seahorses.

In other words, the middle-aged man in front of him is a first-rank official of the imperial court.

Especially seeing how freely he enters and exits the palace, one can guess his status.

Wang Fan just recalled a little bit, and then remembered the identity of this person.

Yang Shao, Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites.

"I've met Master Shangshu." Wang Fan immediately stood up from the stool, saluted respectfully, and didn't look careless in class.

If it was just this identity, it would not make Wang Fan treat it so seriously. After all, he still dared to speak wild words when facing Zheng Taifu, who was also a first-rank Zheng Taifu.

What really makes Wang Fan afraid is Yang Shao's other identity.

The current patriarch of the Yang family is also the younger brother of the late Empress Yang and the uncle of the eighteenth prince Wang Zhong.

Minister of the Ministry of Rites, uncle of the dynasty, head of the Yang family, any one of his identities has great influence, and when the three come together on one person, the power they can display is even more terrifying.

"Your Highness, I'm so polite." Yang Shao's expression on his face was extremely strange, seemingly majestic and unapproachable, but there seemed to be a smile in his eyes, which made people can't help letting go of their guard.

"Master Shangshu, it was just Meng Lang's words, please don't take it to heart." Wang Fan saluted again.

He knew that Yang Shao had misunderstood.

In addition to having two princes, Empress Yang also has a daughter.Wang Fan's casual exclamation blamed Yang Shao's niece.

However, no matter how Ren Yangshao imagined, he might not guess that the "sister" in Wang Fan's mouth did not refer to these imperial daughters.

"I don't know why Master Shangshu came to the humble house?" Wang Fan's voice was light, and he didn't show much enthusiasm.

Yang Shao narrowed his eyes slightly, and then the corners of his mouth curved slightly.

"Your Highness, since you have already guessed it, why pretend not to know it? I came here to obey His Majesty's decree to call you to the Imperial Study Room."
