Mr. Fan is the eldest grandson of Master Fan in Beiyong. His full name is Fan Qishan. He has a suave appearance and a wealthy family. He is the leading figure in Heyang. Local officials, big and small, all pay three respects to Fan's family.As for which imperial relative and how close they are, there are many kinds of opinions, but few people can make it clear.

Young Master Fan stepped in front of the horse, bowed his head and met Fan An's eyes.

Fan An looked at Mr. Fan as an idiot, and Mr. Fan also looked at Fan An that way.The white horse trotted its hooves slowly, Mr. Pan rubbed his ear with his fan: "Where is the old man, his brain is covered in shit, and he wants to snatch my slave from me?"

The corner of Fan An's mouth twitched.The dog couldn't spit out ivory, and was dressed in elegant clothes for nothing.He's only 28 years old and he has a beard today, does he look that old?

As soon as Fan An lowered his head and stroked his beard, Bai Guoqi who was next to him walked up. Mr. Fan seemed to recognize Bai Guoqi, his eyes lit up and he said, "Why is Governor Bai here? A few days ago, my father invited you to the mansion for tea. Why haven't I seen you..." Bai Guoqi didn't dare to reminisce with him, so he walked to the side of the horse and whispered, "This man is an official slave and cannot be bought or sold. The man with the beard is an adult from the capital." He sent Fan Da The young master leaned down and whispered in his ear: "This man is too big to be messed with. I'll ask Sa Fanpei to return the deposit money to you, and return this slave to the Pingqing quarry. Otherwise, he will definitely be messed with. A lawsuit."

Young Master Fan looked at Bai Guoqi and gave a meaningful oh.He took a look at Fan An, and suddenly laughed loudly: "What kind of official is it? He can mobilize the magistrate's men and horses, and let our Master Bai be like this. The Ministry of Criminal Justice in the capital is still a high-ranking official in the Metropolitan Procuratorate? Which one is it?" The supervisory censor? Imperial envoy?" He smiled nonchalantly, "The capital of the capital? The minister of Dali Temple? The secretary of the Ministry of punishment? Or the head of Lantai?"

When he mentioned the leader of Lantai, both Li Jianbi and Fan An raised their eyes to look at him.Mr. Fan looked at the eyes of the two and sneered, "What are you looking at, it seems that you two have really done it." His eyes fell on Fan An's hand holding Li Jianbi, and he picked up the fan and nodded. "Ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai ai

Li Jianbi looked at him and glanced at Fan An again, but he didn't move.Mr. Fan let out a hey and said, "You lowly slave! Do you owe a beating again? I'll call you over here!"

Li Jianbi still didn't move, and Mr. Fan was easily aroused into anger. He got off his horse, walked over in three steps at a time, and grabbed Li Jianbi's arm.With sharp eyes and quick hands, Fan An grabbed Master Fan's wrist and threw him out.Mr. Fan didn't expect this bearded man to have such strength and skill, he was caught off guard, he was thrown around twice, staggered and almost fell to the ground.

Mr. Fan stood firm, he let out a yo-ho, and looked at Fan An in disbelief.Bai Guoqilian, who was next to him, helped him quickly and said, "Don't do anything! It's all a misunderstanding, everyone, sit down and have a sip of tea and talk about it."

Mr. Fan didn't even look at Bai Guoqi, he threw away the jade bone fan and robe, walked up and grabbed Fan An by the left shoulder to drag him over to beat him.

This Mr. Fan came from a wealthy family, although he often fights, he seldom fights himself.He didn't make any preparations today, he came alone and had no choice but to go into battle himself.This Fan An looks like a scholar, his face full of vicissitudes makes people think that he is getting old.Mr. Fan thought that he could beat Fan An to the ground with two punches, but he didn't expect Fan An to see him coming, so he let Li Jianbi go, and rolled his sleeves to meet him.

Fan An was born as a bandit, he was quick and accurate, and he didn't show mercy at all.Mr. Fan had just waved his hand when Fan An punched him out of the nosebleed.Mr. Fan snorted, looked at him like a ghost and said, "How dare you hit me?!" He roared loudly, rushed forward like crazy and knocked Fan An to the ground.

The two were fighting back and forth on the ground, and a group of government servants stood around them, one was a strong dragon, the other was an earth snake, no one could offend them, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, and no one dared to step forward to disturb their "Ya Xing" .On the other hand, Bai Guoqi, who was standing next to him, was sweating in anxiety, and said, "Don't hit, don't hit!" He circled around the two of them twice, bent down to tear them apart, but was unexpectedly punched by Mr. Fan.

At this time, there was a commotion in the distance on the street, and one person said: "Where is the idiot mentally retarded! How dare you beat my son!" Bai Guoqi looked up and saw half a hundred slaves of the Fan family rushing forward.He was anxious, hugged Mr. Pan from behind, turned around and pulled him away from Fan An.

The servant of Fan's mansion took Panqishan from him, and seeing his young master's face being slapped with green and red, he rushed up to grab Fan An and pinned Fan An to the ground.Then Bai Guoqi hurriedly asked someone to protect Fan An in the middle, and declared: "This is Mr. Zhongcheng Gao, the imperial censor of the Capital Procuratorate. Anyone of you who dares to hurt someone will be punished with death!"

This drink really worked, and everyone was stunned when they heard this.Yushi Zhongcheng is a senior official of the second rank of the imperial court, second only to the capital inspector who is the head of Lantai.Bai Guoqi didn't dare to reveal Fan An's identity, so he could only use an intimidating title as a cover for him.He pushed aside the crowd to help Fan An, and said: "My lord, the master of the Fan family in Beiyong and the current Da Fuma have a classmate friendship, and love is like a brother. This Mr. Fan is also the eldest grandson of the Fan family. In terms of seniority, Mr. Fan He is also your grandson. How can you fight him."

Mr. Fan is about the same age as Fan An, if he hears that he is arranged to be Fan An's grandson, he will be so angry that he vomits blood.Fortunately, he was beaten so faintly that he swayed from side to side when he stood up, and he didn't hear what Bai Guoqi was saying at all.

Bai Guoqi stood up and said: "Everyone has misunderstood! It is really not worth it because a slave fights and hurts peace." He walked over and pulled Li Jianbi and said: "This man is an official slave, he can't go anywhere! Only in Pingqing Quarry!" As he spoke, he ordered the yamen servants to take Li Jian away quickly.

"Bai Guoqi, how dare you!" Mr. Fan supported his slave to stand firm, and said with a drink, "I bought this man from Boss Sa, and I spent money, and this man is mine! Did he break the law? Is this man an official slave? Who can testify? Liu Xie, the guard at the quarry? What proof does he have?"

Mr. Fan's words are not unreasonable. The law of official criminals' trading is not allowed, so Liu Xie did not leave any contract certificate in his hand.If we only rely on witness testimony without physical evidence, it is impossible to prove that the current Qian Wu is Li Yan.

Fan Qishan said: "I have a bond with Boss Sa in my hand! If you don't give me the person today, I will go to the capital to sue! Is it because I am afraid of you?!" He said, "I, Fan My family usually wins the lawsuit without reason, but now it is rare to be justified, so why not lose?! Is there any law of the king?!"

Mr. Fan was beaten up, and now he was so angry that he insisted on fighting Fan An to the death.

Fan An shook the dirt on his body, stood quietly for a while, and said with a smile: "You are absolutely right, no one can prove that Qian Wu is Li Yan from the quarry. , You don’t need to go to the capital to file a complaint. As a parent official, Mr. Liu, the magistrate of Heyang, must be a person who talks about the king’s law. There is no second word, let go immediately."

"That's good. I also believe in Liu Zhifu's preachers of king's law." Mr. Fan also smiled, "If he says to award you, I will definitely say nothing."

The two groups of people went to the prefect of Heyang in a mighty way.

In fact, when these two groups were fighting on the street, someone had already notified the magistrate Liu Fengshun.Now I heard that two groups of people wanted to come to his house to argue after a fight, which made Liu Fengshun break out in a cold sweat, and quickly asked someone to call the master who was collecting grain taxes to come back to find a solution.

The master of the magistrate heard about this and said that one of these two people is too powerful and the other is too powerful, we can't mess with each other, and we must not accept this case.At that time, adults, you can say that you are sick and can't be a director, and let them mediate by themselves.

Liu Fengshun thought it was a good idea, so when Mr. Fan was playing drums outside the mansion, someone ran over and nodded and bowed and said that the magistrate Liu had a cold today and couldn't even get out of bed, so he couldn't accept the case.

Fan An snorted next to him and said, "Fake it, go and wake him up. If you really can't get out of bed, move the bed to the front of the hall. As long as he has a breath today, he has to be interrogated by me!"

Liu Fengshun was forced to be helpless, and finally came to the hall wrapped in a thick quilt.

One of these two people is a high-ranking official in the capital, and the other is the mansion of the emperor's relatives. Liu Fengshun did not dare to ask them to kneel, so he asked them to prepare a large pear flower chair on the left and right.Sa Fanpei and Li Jianbi were detained in the hall for trial.

Liu Fengshun roughly listened to the matter, and said that this matter is very easy to handle, and whoever has the money to buy the body will belong to that person.Wang's laws and decrees are written in this way, and I am not biased.

Mr. Fan smiled, and said: "Prefect Liu is indeed a person who preaches the law of the king. I have a contract of sale for this slave, and I am in the study at home." The deed of sale was brought out.

Fan An calmly said: "I also have Qian Wu's deed of selling myself, and it's in Nanchang's mansion." He greeted Bai Guoqi who was on the side, and said, "You go and get it for me." Bai Guoqi glanced at him, and he Where can I get the money to buy a body deed? !Could it be possible for Xing Zhi to temporarily make a fake one?

Seeing him staring blankly, Fan An scolded, "Hurry up!" Bai Guoqi swallowed, and went out bravely.

Everyone waited in the hall for a few quarters of an hour, and the servants of Fan's mansion and Bai Guoqi all returned, and each handed over the deeds in their hands to Liu Fengshun.

Liu Fengshun saw at a glance that Bai Guoqi's deed was made temporarily, and the seals on it were real, but it could be seen that it was made temporarily, and the color was still fresh.But he glanced at Fan An, but didn't dare to say anything.

Mr. Fan stood up and pointed at Fan An's nose and said, "How can you have a deed of prostitution for Qian Wu?! You made a fake deed!"

Fan An said: "Is it up to you whether the deed is fake or not? It's up to the prefect Liu to decide. Is this case going to be tried by you or the prefect Liu? Is there any law?"

Mr. Fan was so angry that his five orifices rose into smoke, he turned his face to stare at Liu Fengshun and said, "Prefect Liu, which deed is the real one?"

Liu Fengshun didn't dare to answer, his eyes fell on Sa Fanpei in the hall, his brain brightened, and he hurriedly said: "It's hard to tell whether the deed is true or not, but Boss Sa must recognize the one drawn by himself, Sa Fanpei, look Clear, tell this government, which contract is true?!"

Sa Fanpei naturally knew which deed was the real one, but now that he knew the identity of Fan An Yushi Zhongcheng, he didn't dare to admit it.As a slave merchant, he couldn't offend the rich, let alone the officials, so no matter how much Liu Fengshun asked, he wouldn't open his mouth.But Liu Fengshun only had him as a life-saving straw, so he was not willing to let it go. He slapped the stump and reprimanded: "It seems that you won't recruit without punishment. Come here! Sergeant with great punishment!"

Sa Fanpei heard the word "big punishment", and his heart was pounding. He suddenly yelled, and rushed to Liu Fengshun's desk, but with a bang, the man bumped into the desk. Passed out!

Liu Fengshun stared at him dumbfounded, and the yamen servant next to him turned him over to look at him, and said, sir, this man has passed out.

Everyone was silent for a while.

Fan An said: "Whether this contract is real or not, we still have to rely on the magistrate to identify it."

Liu Fengshun swallowed, he really wanted to pass out with Boss Sa. "I can't tell the truth with my own eyes. I'll ask Bo, the old owner of the mansion, to take a look." He said as he got off the desk and went to the back hall, "My lords, wait for me for a while."

Liu Fengshun turned to the back hall and asked the master, what should be the next sentence?The master said: Sir, since you have seen the imperial order of that person, it means that it is an imperial envoy, and it must be a member of the Metropolitan Procuratorate in the capital. If this person offends you, you can be dismissed as soon as you go back.And Mr. Fan is a big family in Heyang, so the so-called strong dragon does not overwhelm the local snake, if he offends this person, it will be even more difficult to be an official in Heyang in the future.

The two thought it over, and after two quarters of an hour, they discussed and reached a result.

Bai Guoqi stood outside the hall for a while, saying that the two of them hadn't come out for such a long time, so I went to urge him.

As he spoke, he went into the inner hall, didn't stop for a while, and finally led Liu Zhifu out.Mr. Fan asked: "Is there a result?" Then Liu Fengshun sat in front of the desk for a while, raised his head and said: "The result is out."

He said: "Both deeds are true."

"Ridiculous!" Mr. Fan said, "How do you argue? You can't even tell the truth from the fake?!"

"The villain is incompetent, I really can't tell the difference, so I can only judge that both are true."

Fan An said: "But Qian Wu has only one person. If both cards are true, who will this person be awarded to?"

"This is very easy to handle. Since both are real, of course we have to divide them into two." Liu Fengshun pointed to Li Jianbi who was under him and said, "Use a knife to cut him from side to side, half of you and half of him, no one else. One share, no one less than one point. Isn't it done?"

Mr. Fan jumped up and said, "Cut it in half, it's bloody, who wants it!"

"If you dislike it, of course you don't have to." Liu Zhifu said: "According to the king's law, if you don't want this person, then this person will be given to Lord Gao." Even if you take it and feed it to the dog, it won't be cheap for him!"

Li Jianbi was kneeling in the hall, without raising his eyelids, Fan An saw his dark eyelashes and pale cheeks, motionless like ice in a deep well. "I think this idea is very good." Fan An said, "If you want to share, then divide it quickly."
