Hearing the homonym of Zhou Fangli, Su Yan immediately understood what he meant.

He smiled and said,"General Zhou, although Su Ze is my second brother, he is my biological brother, I should protect him."

After a pause, he continued,"However, as a minister of the Han Dynasty, I should be loyal to the emperor and the court, and should not do things that are partial to me and bend the law, even if it is my biological brother."

"Su Yan, what are you talking about? I tell you, don't try to frame me!"

Su Ze heard this and said angrily

"Second Young Master!"

Zhou Fang said in a deep voice:"I am asking the eldest young master a question now, you'd better not interrupt me, otherwise I have reason to think you are making trouble."

"I can arrest you for obstructing official business!"

"Arrest me?"

Su Ze was so angry that he laughed,"Do you know who my father is? If you dare to arrest me, you must be tired of living!"

"Please be careful with your words, Second Young Master!"

Zhou Fang was angered by Su Ze's arrogant words, and he tried to suppress his anger.

Although he was only a city defense captain, he was not as good as Su Ping, the deputy driver.

But he had the support of the governor Liu Yu behind him. Even if Su Ping had great power, he would not dare to openly resist Liu Yu. His identity as a relative of the Han Dynasty alone made him higher than everyone else, coupled with his connections in the court and his reputation for benevolence and integrity.

Su Ping would never dare to provoke a war easily, otherwise once Liu Yu's true potential erupted, he would definitely not be able to stop it.

This is why Zhou Fang was not too afraid of Su Ping, although he was wary of Su Ping.

His position was to be in charge of the city defense of Ji County. Most of the troops in Ji County were under his command, and he had great power.

When Liu Yu first took office, he found a reason to replace the original He promoted Zhou Fang from the previous captain.

This also shows that he is Liu Yu's confidant, and no one is allowed to act rashly.

In this way, the army of Ji County is indirectly controlled by Liu Yu.

Su Ze is just a dandy boy, and he doesn't understand these secret interests.

That's why he dared to use Su Ping's identity to scare Zhou Fang in front of everyone.

If Su Ping were here, he would definitely be furious and slap Su Ze to death.

Such a son is simply a pitfall!

Su Yan watched this scene with interest, and he suddenly realized that Su Ze was really stupid.

Even such a pus would make his predecessor embarrassed.

It seems that he was too weak after all.

He smiled and said,"General Zhou, my second brother is still young after all, and a little ignorant. Please don't argue with him."

"Don't worry, Master. I know that Master just blurted out something because he was angry."

Zhou Fang said, cupping his hands and glancing at Su Ze.

The two of them sang the same tune, completely ignoring Su Ze's existence, which completely angered him.

"Su Yan, stop pretending to be a good guy! I tell you, Ji County is my territory. If you come here, don't even think about leaving. I will kill you sooner or later."

He pointed at Su Yan and said angrily, then he threw his sleeves and was about to leave.

But at this moment, the soldiers around him stopped him.

"Second Master, the matter has not been investigated yet. You are bringing people here to cause trouble. I cannot just leave like this."

Zhou Fang said

"What? You still want to keep me here? Do you really have to ask my father to come and look for you?"

Su Ze looked at him and sneered.

"You!"

Zhou Fang glared at him, snorted, and said,"Since the Second Young Master is unwilling to cooperate, then I can only detain him."

"You dare! I......."

"Wait a minute!"

At this moment, an old man suddenly rode over and shouted

"General Zhou, please wait a moment, let me talk to you.

He looked at Zhou Fang and said

"Who are you?" Zhou Fang said

"I am the steward of the Su Mansion. I wonder if the general would be willing to listen to me."The old man said slowly

"You say."

Zhou Fang frowned when he heard that it was from the Su Mansion.

The old man came to Zhou Fang and whispered a few words to him.

Su Yan narrowed his eyes slightly. He knew that someone must have helped Su Ze.

If he guessed correctly, it should be Xu.

Xu was very favored by Su Ping and had a lot of say in the entire Su Mansion, and sometimes even influenced outside the mansion.

This housekeeper Su Yan had some impression. It seemed that he was Xu's servant before.

After a while, after listening to the old man's words, Zhou Fang frowned and waved his hand, and the soldiers immediately dispersed the encirclement.

"In that case, I thank the general on behalf of my wife."

Seeing this, the housekeeper saluted to Zhou Fang, and then signaled the guards to take Su Ze back.

He came to Su Yan and said,"Old slave, I greet the eldest master!"

He bowed to Su Yan, looking very respectful.

"What's the matter?"

Su Yan asked calmly.

"The master's birthday is coming soon, and the lady asked the eldest son to go back to celebrate the master's birthday."

Su Yan nodded and said,"I know, you tell the lady that I will go back. Please rest assured that I will thank her well."

He emphasized the word"thank you".

The housekeeper didn't know whether he heard it or not, he bowed to Su Yan and then rode back. As soon as he left, Zhou Fang came to Su Yan again.

"Thank you General Zhou for your help this time."

Su Yan bowed to Zhou Fang and said

""You are too polite, eldest son. Lord Lu saved my life. Now that the eldest son is under Lord Lu's tutelage, I have helped him, which is also a way to repay Lord Lu's kindness."

Zhou Fang said with a smile.

After hearing this, Su Yan suddenly realized that he was indebted to Lu Zhi.

Now it seems that he was right to become Lu Zhi's disciple, and now some of the benefits have been reflected.

Zhou Fang explained:"Just now, the steward of the Su Mansion used your father to pressure me, and I had no choice but to release the second son. I did not help the eldest son, please forgive me."

"It's okay, General Zhou. It's great that you can help me. You can come to Zhuo County to find me if you need me in the future."

Su Yan waved his hand.

Zhou Fang's status is not ordinary, and there is no harm in getting in touch with him, so Su Yan is willing to do this favor.

"In that case, I will take my leave first."

Zhou Fang bowed and left with his men.

Su Yan looked at them and asked Wang Min to take them to contact the 100 soldiers of the Pojun Camp.

In several small courtyards in the north of the city, 100 soldiers were lurking there and were soon found.

Su Yan ordered them to wait there and then went to the governor's mansion.

The main person he came to Ji County this time was to meet Liu Yu and see what his attitude was towards him.

If he was very supportive of him, then he would have a backer. It would be much easier for him to develop his power in Youzhou in the future.
