Chapter 50 Come to find trouble
"Since it is the property of my uncle, then I can rest assured!" Wang An laughed heartily.

As far as he could remember, Wang An had never met this imperial uncle.

However, from the daily records of emperors of past dynasties, we can indeed see that his imperial grandfather and imperial uncle had a very close relationship when they were young.

When Prince Fu Wang Xu left the capital for Jingzhou to establish his fiefdom, Grandpa Wang cried bitterly.

The affection between the two brothers can be seen from this.

As the eldest son and grandson of the Emperor, he should be more important in the eyes of Prince Fu Wang Xu than Wang Hongyuan, the second son of Grandpa Huang.

Even if the weight is not that important, at least he should not help outsiders to deal with himself.

The old shopkeeper also smiled and said, "Although I seldom go back to Jingzhou, whenever I go back, I will definitely hear your name from the old prince. The old prince cares about you so much."

Wang An felt more relieved after hearing this.

He immediately said, "Please tell my uncle that I will go to Jingzhou to visit him if I have the chance."

"Okay, okay, I will definitely do whatever your Highness asks!" said the old shopkeeper.

The two chatted about some family matters and asked about the recent situation of Prince Fu Wang Xu, and then Wang An stood up and said goodbye.

Before leaving, they agreed that the money for buying grain would be delivered with the grain transport team later.

The old shopkeeper said indifferently, "I don't believe what His Royal Highness said. Even if the money is not available right now, it will be the same even if I give it to you later."

After leaving the grain warehouse, Wang An immediately ordered a garrison soldier to go out of the city to notify the bandits' grain transport team waiting outside the city.

Seeing that it was getting late, Wang An estimated that it was time to go to the government office to pay a visit to Fang Shan.

When everyone arrived at the Jingzhou government office, they saw that the front of the government office was filled with luxurious carriages and sedan chairs.

The gate of the government office was covered with wedding characters and hung with red lanterns, creating an atmosphere of joy.

Many nobles dressed in silk and satin, holding gift lists and invitations, entered the government office in an endless stream.

Judging from their clothes, they are all gentry and powerful people in Jingzhou City.

There was an old man and a young man dressed as a groom standing at the door, constantly welcoming the guests.

Wang An sneered, "Wow, it's quite lively."

Then he turned to Xu Huang and said, "Do you have the guts to join in the fun?"

Xu Huang showed a cruel smile, "Why should we be afraid? We will go wherever the prince tells us to go."

Wang An nodded with satisfaction and walked forward first.

Those who came in and out of the Jingzhou government office were all gentry and powerful people from Jingzhou, as well as officials. They were all dressed in silk and satin and had an elegant temperament. So Wang An, who was wearing armor and holding a sword, quickly attracted everyone's attention.

The old man in front of the door and the young man in Hechuan groom's clothes all looked at Wang An.

Wang An grinned at them, cupped his hands and said, "As the saying goes, it's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early. I guess you two must be Lord Fang Shan and your son Fang Yukun, right?"

The old man Fang Shan had already guessed Wang An's identity, so he was not surprised to hear this.

On the contrary, Fang Yukun looked surprised, pointed at himself and asked, "Who are you and how do you know me?"

Wang An raised his lips to sneer and said, "Who in the whole Jingzhou City doesn't know the name of Fang Yukun? I just arrived in Jingzhou and I heard of Mr. Fang's name." Fang Yukun showed a hint of pride on his face, and he didn't even notice that Wang An called himself the King.

But the smile on his face froze again before it could even melt away. Wang An continued, "Mr. Fang's reputation as a scumbag is known throughout Jingzhou Prefecture!"

Fang Yukun was stunned for a moment, as if he had not expected that someone would dare to scold him in front of him, but he quickly came to his senses and became furious.

He pointed at Wang An and wanted to rush up and hit him, but was stopped by Fang Shan who was beside him.

Fangshan is about sixty years old, thin and with a dark face. If he were on the street, people might mistake him for a farmer.

Fang Shan stared at Wang An for a while, then suddenly sneered, "Today is my son's big day. I didn't expect His Royal Highness Prince Xin would come to visit. It really makes me feel honored."

As soon as Fang Shan said this, everyone around him looked at Wang An in shock.

Everyone was pointing at Wang An and talking, and the sound of people's discussions could be heard faintly.

"Is this the late emperor's posthumous child?"

"He is a handsome man, but unfortunately people say he is cowardly and incompetent. It's a waste of his good looks."

"I heard that His Royal Highness Prince Xin was enfeoffed in Jizhou. How come he came to our Jingzhou?"

"It looks like he came here specifically to congratulate Master Fang. He really gave Master Fang a lot of face."

"How ridiculous! His Royal Highness the Prince actually came to curry favor with the governor. I wonder what the late emperor would think if he were still alive."

Just as everyone was talking and speculating why Wang An appeared in Jingzhou.

Fang Shan continued, "However, if His Royal Highness Prince Xin comes to the wedding, I will welcome you. But if His Royal Highness Prince Xin speaks nonsense and slanders my son's innocence, I will have no choice but to ask His Royal Highness to leave."

Wang An laughed loudly upon hearing this, looked at Fang Shan with a hint of sarcasm on his face, and said, "Since Lord Fang thinks that I am a bad guest, you should know that bad guests are not so easy to get rid of."

Fang Shan's eyes fixed, and he asked in a cold voice, "What exactly do you want, Your Highness?"

Wang An stopped talking and just waved his hand, saying, "I was just joking, why did Lord Fang take it seriously? Are you really afraid that I will do something on your territory?"

Fang Shan snorted coldly when he heard that, but he actually felt relaxed.

As a local governor who holds the power of life and death over Jingzhou, and has been operating in Jingzhou for many years, he does not dare to say that he has made Jingzhou an iron barrel, but he is indeed confident that no one would dare to cause trouble for him here.

Even if the other party is a prince, it won't work.

So he said with a haughty look: "Since Your Highness only knows this place is Jingzhou, then don't make such jokes in the future."

As he spoke, he invited Wang An to the Jingzhou government office and said, "You are a guest from afar. Since Your Highness is here, why not come in and have a drink."

Wang An came in laughing and said, "That's natural!"

But when Xu Huang and his companions were about to enter the government office, they were stopped by a man dressed as a butler.

As the saying goes, a dog relies on the power of its master. The housekeeper knew that Xu Huang and the others were Wang An's guards, but he still said proudly, "Today is my young master's wedding day. The mansion is full of famous people in Jingzhou City. What are you vulgar warriors doing in there?"

"Wait outside the mansion first. Someone will take you to the kitchen to eat in a while."
