Reborn In The Three Kingdoms

Chapter 45: Visiting Wang Yun

Emperor Ling is angry when heard what Zhang Rang said, even though he likes Zhang Rang but that doesn't mean he can tell the Emperor that he is wrong so inciting his wrath and everyone there immediately kneel when they saw that Emperor Ling anger

Zhang Rang: "This servant doesn't mean to anger Your Majesty, I just thought that maybe General Lie Fan is too young for such heavy responsibilities he will have"

Emperor Ling: "Too young?! General Lie has put his body on the line to protect our empire at such young age and manage to defeat the Yellow Turbans! And your reason is that he is too young, do you doubt the choice I make?!"

Zhang Rang: "This servant doesn't dare to doubt Your Majesty's choice, please punish this servant because I doubted the person Your Majesty choose"

Emperor Ling: "Hufff no need, Eunuch Zhang is only caring for the big picture it's okay We forgive you"

Lie Fan observes the interaction between Emperor Ling and Zhang Rang, he can see that Emperor Ling is truly angry to be doubted but his anger is gone just like that when Zhang Rang plead for punishment showing that Emperor Ling truly favors the Eunuchs too much

Lie Fan kneels to give his appreciation for the reward he gave him and promises Emperor Ling to live up to the trust that he has put in him by making Xu Province more prosperous and clearing the remaining rebels in Xu Province

Emperor Ling told Lie Fan to stand up and told him that his official seal and token signifying his new rank will be given tomorrow as well as the address of the Mansion he got tomorrow so he need to come to the court for the official ceremony, and the monetary rewards he got will be sent toward his mansion when he has officially stayed there.

Emperor Ling after saying this grows tired of the talking and told everyone to be dismissed as he wanted to enjoy his time feeling the essence of the garden.

Lie Fan alongside his retinue who was brought to the garden by Eunuch Lu was escorted back to the Imperial Palace Gate, Eunuch Lu on the way there complimented Lie Fan nonstop for the promotion he got, and in return, Lie Fan promises to send him some Fruit Wine and Beers alongside some copper mirrors to him making Eunuch Lu happy and promises to inform him if anything happens inside the palace

Lie Fan says goodbye to Eunuch Lu and alongside his retinue left the Imperial Palace to visit Wang Yun at his manor after asking Eunuch Lu for directions to discuss the letter that they have shown some members of the 10 attendants are colluding with the Yellow Turbans

Sun Qian: "Congratulations My Lord! You're the youngest man ever that was promoted to the rank of general and Inspector of a province! Your vision of the land will be attained!"

Lie Fan: "Hahaha! I'm the youngest but that means many people will be displeased with the rank that I got now, I towered over many people, and above me is the Three Excellencies alongside Your Majesty which show the substantial power I had"

Sun Qian: "Yes! I forgot about that as I'm too elated with My Lord's promotion, I suggest that after we have the Manor that Your Majesty gave to you we hold a banquet inviting every official in the Imperial Court as a sign of respect to their seniority"

Lie Fan: "Good idea! Master Sun can make the letters for the invitation and make one also for my family to come to join the banquet in Luoyang let Chao Bo guard them as he will be in Huai'An bringing back the men we got, Xu Kai you will send the letters when it's done and examine every manor you manage to visit personally"

Xu Kai: "Okay Big Brother! Can I ask you something Big Bro?"

Lie Fan: "Sure what is it?"

Xu Kai: "In here I met many orphans on the streets, can I recruit them for the Oriole?"

Lie Fan thinks about the idea for a minute and belief it was a good idea so he allowed Xu Kai to do so under the condition that to be discreet when they talked with each other Lie Fan and his retinue finally arrived at Wang Yun's Manor

A servant was waiting for Lie Fan when they arrived at the gate, he brought Lie Fan and his retinue to the study where Wang Yun is waiting for them and when they reached the study Lie Fan told his bodyguards to guard the door outside while he and Sun Qian will enter

Lie Fan and Sun Qian enter the study and saw Wang Yun sitting in his chair holding some letters while contemplating in silence not knowing what he was thinking

Lie Fan: "*ahem* Uncle Wang , Lie Fan is here to keep his promise to see you"

Wang Yun: "Ah! Little Lie is here! Come and take a seat, it looks like you're accompanied by someone"

Lie Fan: "Yes this is my strategist and advisor Master Sun Qian, but I think Uncle Wang is more interested in this letter than I found" *gives the letters*

Wang Yun receives the letters and begins to read them carefully, Lie Fan and Sun Qian take a seat and give each other a look trying to signal each other which was kinda funny as Lie Fan can't understand what Sun Qian trying to say while Sun Qian understand what Lie Fan is saying

When they were signaling each other a knock was suddenly heard through the door where Wang Yum who was absorbed in the letters was taken out from his review, he tell the people who knocked to enter and says sorry to Lie Fan and Wang Yun as he neglected them the guest

Lie Fan was saying it was okay when suddenly he smell a sweet fragrance, he turned his head and was wonderstruck by the beautiful girl who just entered the study as he can be sure that she is slightly more beautiful that Ying Yue

???: "Father, I bring some tea for you and our guest to enjoy"

Wang Yun: "Thank you Chan'er, Father forgot to give basic courtesy to our guest thanks to the important matters we are discussing"

Lie Fan: "Uncle Wang, may I know who is this lady as I never heard that Uncle Wang has a daughter"

Wang Yun: "Ah yes, Little Lie let me introduce you to my step-daughter Diao Chan she is younger than General Lie by a year, I took her in when she was little and has taken care of her since. Chan'er this is General Lie Fan and Sir Sun Qian His advisor"

Lie Fan: "Lie Fan is humbled to meet Lady Diao Chan, Sir Wang Yun is very benevolent taking Lady Diao Chan in as your daughter"

Diao Chan: "Diao Chan meets General Lie, Father is a good person and cares for the people so taking me in is already proof of that"

Lie Fan: "Haha! What Lady Diao Chan says is true, this is a testament to the reputation I heard about Uncle Wang and what My Father told me!"

Wang Yun and Sun Qian as old-timers we should say, saw how Lie Fan first looked at Diao Chan, and the stars that were showing in his eyes made Wang Yun and Sun Qian sure of what they were thinking

Wang Yun even though is a good and benevolent person is still a crafty old fox, and he began to consider Lie Fan as a candidate for his future son in law seeing the prospect Lie Fan has now

Wang Yun still doesn't know about Lie Fan's promotion as it's not announced yet, Sun Qian on the other hand was building a strategy where to hold Lie Fan's urge as he is afraid that Lie Fan will be distracted by beauty and forgot his aspirations as history has shown many example of that

Diao Chan is still a tender 16-year-old girl and was attracted by the handsome and charismatic young general but thanks to her father's teaching she managed to not show her true thoughts and continue conversing with Lie Fan

Wang Yun: "*ahem* Chan'er you can leave us now as Father still has important things to discuss with General Lie"

Diao Chan: "Okay Father, then I take my leave first General Lie and Sir Sun Qian"

Lie Fan: "Oh Of Course! I hope we can meet again in the future Lady Diao Chan"

Diao Chan giggled upon hearing what Lie Fan said and then left the study leaving a mesmerized Lie Fan, Wang Yun saw Lie Fan looking like that and coughed making Lie Fan wake up and turn his head back to Wang Yun

Wang Yun: "*ahem* then let's continue our subject that brings us here together, how does General Lie manage to find this letter?"

Lie Fan: "My subordinate founds it when we managed to Capture the leader of the Rebellion Zhang Jiao and kill him inside his shirt there is a book with the letters inside it"

Wang Yun: "What?! You managed to kill the leader of the Yellow Turbans?! Why doesn't this announced by His Majesty?!"

Lie Fan: "I don't know for that specific reason, but I think Your Majesty wanted to announce it when I arrived at Luoyang and give my rewards"

Wang Yun: "Then I congratulate Little Lie in advance for the rewards you will receive from the Emperor"

Lie Fan: "Thank You Uncle Wang, but why don't we continue our subject at hand?"

Wang Yun hearing that began to tell his story of how he found the letters, he was assigned as the Inspector of Yu Province and tasked to help Zhu Jun's armies eliminate the Yellow Turbans there

When he raided some Yellow Turbans campsites, he was investigating their letters when he saw the letters from Zhang Rang to the Yellow Turbans and suspected that the commander of the Yellow Turbans camp is an important one as he managed to hold this

After getting the letter, he began to ride back to Luoyang, and when he arrived he wanted to report it to the Emperor immediately but then he meet Lie Fan at the gate where the rest that happened led to this situation now where they meet in his Manor
