”What’s thewouldn’t be so tense Regardless, he still forced a srapevines not work out?”
On another note, despite already being old enough tohad yet to do so for unknown reasons
”I don’t have ti said with a dark expression, ”There had been a double murder yesterday in a manor just at the foot of the mountains Both Wu Bo’an and the second son of the prime minister died”
Fan Xian went pale with shock ”What?”
Li Hongcheng said, ”You heard ht Your future brother-in-law is dead”
Fan Xian, however, wasn’t thinking about such complicated family relationshi+ps This news made him panic somewhat Wu Bo’an’s death had been within his predictions, but… if this wasn’t the work of Uncle, rather so to eliminate all evidence, the second son of the priht up in it Fan Xian kneell enough that his status was far below his brother-in-law Since he and Wu Bo’an died together, could it be that the one who plotted the assassination was…the father-in-law, the prime minister?
Fan Xian didn’t hold much sentiment towards this brother-in-law he had neverabout it, Fan Xian couldn’t help but be troubled He calmed himself down and asked, ”How did they die?”
Li Hongcheng described the crime scene Because thelike this wouldn’t be discovered for a long time However, on the third day, people came to deliver some orders and discovered the bodies Because the victims were the son of the prime minister and Wu Bo’an, who had special status, the incident was reported—skipping the govern directly to the palace
King Jing was in the palace today and happened to hear the news He asked the father-in-law he knew to pass it on to Fan Xian
This suddenly hit Fan Xian; King Jing should know of his visit today For King Jing to take the risk to deliver the news meant itFan Xian’s confusion, Li Hongcheng lowered his voice, ”The Council is looking for Wu Bo’an because they heard he is related to your assassination atteht suspect you”
Fan Xian pretended to be frightened and waved his hand ”I’ve nothing to do with this mess If the Council couldn’t find him, how could I? If the prime minister believes I did it, how a?”
Li Hongcheng was convinced and let out a sigh of relief, ”If you really did it, I had to reevaluate ood side in the future”
Fan Xian and Li Hongcheng had gotten this faly, ”What a rotten thing to say I could only pray to heaven that the prime minister wouldn’t link his son’s death to me”
Li Hongcheng reassured hiht You haven’t been in the capital for too long, and there is no way you could catch soht, he wouldn’t rando” He looked at Fan Xian seriously, ”I believe you I’ to speak to my father on your behalf; I think not even the prime minister would act irrationally”
Fan Xian sighed, ”I’m just afraid that the prime minister would want to explain why his son ith Wu Bo’an You should know that Wu Bo’an is connected to the spy from Northern Qi; he is a confirmed traitor”
Li Hongcheng nodded and spoke with slight worry, ”It’s just that the old pri such a blow, if he were to be fra connections with Wu Bo’an, his life would most likely not be peaceful”
Fan Xian secretly gave the prince a look, thinking, ”Aren’t those ‘political enemies’ you and the second prince? Why speak as if this doesn’t involve you?”
Leaving King Jing’s e, Fan Ruoruo noticed her brother had an uneasy expression Worried, she asked him, ”Do you feel unwell? TooFan Xian his folding fan
Fan Xian was a bit irritated and in a foul mood He spat out, ”None of your business!” Only after he said it did he realize it wasn’t appropriate of hi really complicated came up; I really have to think on it Don’t worry about me for now”
Once back to the FanFan Xian did was run to his father’s book chamber Fan Jian was not there; perhaps he had been summoned by the palace
Fan Xian went back to his roo down at his desk, he discovered the back of his shi+rt was drenched in sweat In truth, as soon as he heard Li Hongcheng describe the bodies, Fan Xian kneho the killer was; in this world, no one was more familiar with Wu Zhu’s methods than him
