Yu Fan and He Qi who saw this knew that they had entered a trap, one that they couldn't escape from. Knowing that they could fight back with the number of men they had, and not wanting their family to be implicated, they finally allowed themselves to be 'invited' by Huang Zhong toward the Mayor Castle.
Yu Fan and He Qi's family were escorted toward a server residence alongside their Clan Guards by Huang Zhong's men, where they would be guarded by them until there was a positive development.
Yu Fan and He Qi followed Huang Zhong's lead toward the Mayor's Castle, for a small town was led by a Mayor while a Medium-sized Town was led by an administrator and a Large sizes Town was led by a Governor, of course, this Governor status was different with the Governor of a Province.
Liu Ba, Chen Deng, and Zang Hong were waiting in the Castle alongside Dian Wei and Zhang Chao, when Yu Fan and He Qi were introduced to them all, they realized that they had met the top generals and advisors under Lie Fan.
Dian Wei and Zhang Chao name, the two of them know who they are, one is part of the Three Heroes who defeated Lu Bu and the other one is the Governor of Guangling, who previously led his own force.
As for Liu Ba, they only remember him serving Yuan Shu from their information network, while Chen Deng names they remember because he was the son of Chen Gui, a famous advisor and scholar from Xu Province who served as chancellor of a kingdom.
All of them are heavyweight names, but they all have one thing in common, and that is they served Lie Fan which shows the kind of prestige or charm Lie Fan had that he could amass many talents to serve him.
Huang Zhong told Yu Fan and He Qi to sit on the chairs tag was prepared for them, the reason why Huang Zhong invited the two of them is because Liu Ba and Chen Deng told him that they could try and invite them to serve Lie Fan.
They are the type of talents that Lie Fan needed, if it's not for the Oriole extensive network in Yang Province being utilized to the maximum right now, they wouldn't even know that Yu Fan and He Qi are staying here.
Liu Ba: "Master Yu Fan and General He Qi what a surprise it was for us when we knew that two of the best talents serving Liu Yao were staying in such a small town."
Yu Fan: "Haha Master Liu Ba we aren't that great, and what can we say we are trying to have a breath of fresh air from the busy life serving Liu Yao, where we will not return there well forever."
Chen Deng: "Looks like Master Yu Fan is insinuating something that I don't dare to believe yet, Master Yu Gan and General He Qi stopped serving Liu Yao?"
He Qi: "Yes that's right, some circumstances force us to make the choice, and since you all know that we don't serve Liu Yao anymore, please allow us to leave we will not disturb your plan."
Yu Fan: "Just like He Qi said, we will tell you all of Liu Yao's important information, supplies location, and even his secret treasury that Lord Lie Fan will be interested in, in exchange everyone here let us go."
Zang Hong: "Wait a minute Master Yu Fan and General He Qi, why are the two of you so in a hurry to leave? We actually have an offer that we are sure the two of you can't refuse, right everyone?"
Zhang Chao: " What Zang Hong said is right, we would like to offer you the invitation to serve Lord Lie Fan alongside us, not many people receive this honor of being invited by three of Lord Lie Fan Army General-In-Chief."
Yu Fan: "Wow what an honor but unfortunately we can't accept it, we already have other plans worked out, and on behalf of Me and He Qi we refused this kind invitation."
Huang Zhong: "Are the two of you really sure about rejecting our offer? Heading toward Liu Biao and choosing to serve him are worse than pledging allegiance to My Lord."
Yu Fan and He Qi were both surprised when they heard what Huang Zhong said because they hadn't even told their family yet, how could Huang Zhong know about the plan that they just discussed between the two of them in a closed quarter.
They don't know that their movement, conversation, and secrets all have been known by Orioles who found them and monitored them for the single week they stayed in this town, which was a stroke of bad luck for them.
Both turned their head toward each other and began to communicate with their eyes since their choice to head toward Liu Biao was exposed, which means they didn't have any chance to leave the town alive except for accepting the invitation to serve Lie Fan.
Liu Ba, Chen Deng, and Zang Hing can see and sense that Yu Fan and He Qi are having doubts about serving Lie Fan, so the three of them take turns persuading the two of them the benefit in pledging their allegiance to Lie Fan, which a lifetime chance for them.
They explained how they don't need to be afraid of not receiving any trust from Lie Fan, because Liu Ba, Zhang Chao, and Zang Hong are just one of the examples Lie Fan giving his trust in the position or assignment that was assigned to you, where you have to reciprocate that trust by doing your best.
Next Lie Fan always assigns tasks or positions that suit the people he chooses to do, not assigning an impossible task or something that you know will fail or doesn't know how to handle, which is fair to say that Lie Fan is not a petty person.
The trio keeps giving them reason after reason whereas Lie Fan is a much better Lord than Liu Biao, and their talents will shine much more in serving Lie Fan than both Liu Biao and Liu Yao, as Lie Fan gives them the platform and isn't a paranoid Lord so they will never be under suspicion from Lie Fan.
Yu Fan and He Qi were smart people, they knew that if people such as Liu Ba, Chen Deng, and Zang Hong had high talents and could serve well in any Lord they chose to praise Lie Fan to such a degree that it was the truth.
After contemplating for a while, Yu Fan gives a signal to He Qi which shows that he will accept the invitation, He Qi who sees this finally chooses to do the same as Yu Fan, at least they can change if Lie Fan is not to their liking.
Yu Fan and He Qi accept the invitation to serve Lie Fan which receives a positive response from everyone in the room, Oriole member immediately heads out to inform Jia Xu about the new talents that were recruited.
Since Lie Fan isn't here to officially give Yu Fan and He Qi their task, Huang Zhong and Liu Ba who can be said to be highest highest-ranking officials among the people in the room, have the two of them serve their group army first, gaining some merits before meeting Lie Fan.
Unknown to what happened in a small town in the center of Wanling County, Lie Fan led the Army Group to conquer Jianye and then Jianye County, on his way back to Xiapi to fulfill his promise to his wives.
It's already around 2 months passed by in his battle against Liu Yao, and Diao Chan and Cai Wenji's due date was getting near so after giving control of his army to Ji Ling assisted by Jia Xu and Xun You, he headed back to Xiapi.
Of course, he is not going back alone, he is accompanied by his bodyguards and the Tian Mao Battalion led by Xu Rong, after finishing conquering Jiange County, he returns to Jianye where he boards one of the treasure ships with his party.
Lie Fan then got off the ship when it reached Guangling, where he continued his ride toward Xiapi. The distance from Guangling to Xiapi is somewhere between a month and a half to two months.
Not caring to take a rest unless needed, Lie Fan pushed his party stamina and endurance to the maximum, and he reached Xiapi in just one month something that never happened before.
Fortunately, all the horses in his party were trained war horses he received from the system, so their stamina and endurance were on top of their levels, even though it was also pushed to the maximum limit by Lie Fan.
Not caring for the sore body he had, Lie Fan rode his horse Pangu toward his residence, leaving behind Xu Rong and The Tian Mao Battalion outside Xiapi, also leaving behind his bodyguards who tried to catch up.
Lie Fan is lucky that his stats allow him to only have soreness all over his body, his bodyguards, general, and unit all feel like they will die due to exhaustion, Xu Rong dismissed his unit allowing them to rest for two days without disturbance.
Lie Fan arriving at his residence met with Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing followed by a bunch of nurses and midwives, who also wanted to enter his residence bringing a bunch of wooden boxes filled with medicines and herbs from the smell of it.
Lie Fan's presence surprised everyone because they thought that Lie Fan would stay on the front line since they were at war against Liu Yao right now, not expecting that Lie Fan would return to Xiapi at all.
Lie Fan gave his greetings to both Hua Tuo and Zhang Zhongjing, then said his goodbye to them entering the residence ignoring the eyes that were looking at him from behind, heading toward the treatment room that was prepared in the residence, where his wives should be there now.
It was the cleanest room in the residence as Lie Fan had it be cleaned 3 times a day by a special group of servants whose job was just to do that, they would be sterilized before ensuring the room to cleaned, reducing the chance of germs entering.
So it was the perfect place for his wives to give birth, of course, this room was prepared after Ying Yu's pregnancies which came as a surprise at that time, and Lie Fan was busy with many matters so he forgot about building such a room.
In the room, Diao Chan and Cai Wenji are lying down on the bed that was prepared especially for them, accompanied by Ying Yue who is holding Yaoyao while Chenchen is being held by Wannian beside her, they are talking harmoniously and this is the scene that Lie Fan saw when he entered the room.
