To avoid being deceived and misled, he planned to inspect the living conditions of the people. This reason was absolutely legitimate!

Skipping work to go home, Fan Jian was reading a book at home—a family heirloom worth a small fortune, the "Petition." Fan Jian had read quite a bit of it and, according to Chen Xi's viewpoint, she was not looking for a thorough understanding, just a general idea was good enough.
