Chapter 318 (2/2)
Haitang lowered her head and said, ”Perhaps he was carrying a grappling hook or so hook” Ku He watched her with a smile ”You were so shocked before, so you must remember what the precipice of Xi Mountain looks like”
Haitang sighed, ”I really don't understand this oshawks in the mountain not eaten Sir Xiao En's bones?”
Ku He's thite-as-snow eyebrows floated up and he replied warically, predators should have helped Sir Xiao En on his way a long tio I didn't expect to find Sir Xiao En's perfectly-preserved body as I came down on the rope There were some dead birds next to him, but those birds had already beco lost a little water, had not rotted”
Hearing these words, Haitain was momentarily shocked, but in an instant she smiled peacefully and said, ”That's a powerful poison”
Ku He nodded his head gently and very casually changed the topic ”Let's talk about the young 's heart thuht s and knew that she could no longer hide anything In a light voice she said, ”The night Xiao En left the capital, Fan Xian stayed with the envoy but no one actually saw hi on his bed… at the tiht the person he saw fall off the cliff with Xiao En was hi poison”
On this earth, only two people had been touched by the Temple: Xiao En and Ku He Now that Xiao En was dead, only Ku He was left The Emperor had suffered innu Xiao En to Northern Qi only to have Ku He try with all his power to kill him And now, he knew that Fan Xian was possibly the last person to have seen Xiao En alive Given how careful Ku He was about the secret of the Teht Fan Xian She only knew that this kind-looking teacher in front of her was an ie earlier was, naturally, to remind her
Unexpectedly, Ku He did not continue this topic of conversation; instead, he looked at her reen tea and said, ”Your tea tastes better and better”
”Thank you, teacher,” Haitang replied demurely
Soently, ”I think I knoho Fan Xian is” This co did not understand what he meant; she could only stare at her teacher
Ku He stood slowly and the trace of aman came to Northern Qi, I left for a while and was injured I am sure you are very curious as to who in this world is able to injure me”
Imperial Advisor Ku He represented the spirit of Northern Qi and so his injury had long been hidden fro knew, she had never heard the details fro this now, she suddenly focused her attention
”It was a blind azed out at the wind and snow in his disciple's garden He spoke slowly, ”It was a blind otten”
Haitang was very shocked She thought, For someone in this world to be able to hurt teacher is already a very shocking thing, and it wasn't a famous Great Grandmaster, it was a… blind man!
Ku He continued to speak slowly, ”What was very strange was that this terrifyingly powerful blind otten thatlistened in silence
”This blind ain rose to the surface of Ku He's face ”Unexpectedly, he appeared once again in this world and the first person he sought was -e more and more confused
”This blind u Jian, and had once defeated Ye Liuyun so badly he gave up the sword He ended a generation of Granduessed it was him I just didn't think he would seek me out—this was very different in style to his secretiveness of bygone years”
Haitang suddenly opened her mouth and asked, ”Perhaps this blind man is that most mysterious Great Grandmaster?”
Ku He shook his head; the pair of eyes that see revealed a trace of confusion ”No, the blind man never needed those empty titles As for the mostRoyal Palace”
Haitang was a little confused Since no one had seen that mysterious Great
Grandmaster, as everyone sure he existed and was inside the Qing Royal Palace?
”The reason is very siu Jian tried three ti Royal Palace to assassinate the Eave a shocked cry She only just learned that Dongyi City's Sigu Jian had done so so crazy However, to act as an assassin at the realm of a Great Grandmaster, the Emperor would be very hard pressed to defend himself even if he were the person with the uess what she was thinking, Ku He said quietly, ”Everyone who
knew about this thought the sah chance of success… unfortunately, he failed four consecutive tih he wasn't injured, he also achieved nothing”
Haitang furrowed her brows and asked, ”That blindRoyal Palace at the tied to injure her teacher was most likely that htly and shook his head ”At that ti lady of the Ye clan, repairing the treasury in Jiangnan”
”The young lady of the Ye clan?” Haitang was even h she was currently the eneration, she knew that everyone in these insider stories her teacher was telling her was soed the shape of this world
Ku He gently turned the conversation back and turned around to look at Haitang ”Do you understand now?”
Haitang's eyes ide and bright; she shook her head
”Who is Fan Xian?” Ku He calmei's son… the son of thewas stunned and very confused Fan Xian… was the illegitimate child of the south court's Minister of Revenue—hoas he connected to the Ye clan? The Ye clan? The Ye clan that once controlled the world through trade? The Ye clan that set up the Overwatch Council, repaired the treasury, and whose prestige lived on to this very day?
Ku He rubbed his hands, sat down, and sighed, ”Xiao En was always locked up by Chen Pingping and so did not know of Lady Ye's identity, but I happened to know The blind man could only be a servant of Lady Ye The ti was, naturally, to make it easier for Fan Xian to act And so, Fan Xian's identity e shook her head and dared to share her opinion before her teacher: ”Although this reasoning makes sense, it seems a bit too forced What if that blind… Grand in theto do with Fan Xian being in the north? Besides, wasn't the Ye clan wiped out all those years ago?”
Before she had finished speaking, Ku He was already s, but if you think about Fan Xian's current position in the south court, and then think about the strange going-ons in the south court since he caether, the truth of the matter becomes clear Don't bandy about words like 'wiped out' The Ye clan's old housekeeper is still alive and well For those in the Qing court ished to preserve a thread of Lady Ye's bloodline, it would not have been ihed worriedly, and was ht: even if Fan Xian was Minister Fan's illegitienius, and a true master, it would be iiven his identity It was even more impossible for him to have the Overwatch Council in his left hand and the treasury in his right The Overwatch Council and the treasury—weren't these the s the Ye clan had left behind in this world?
Was it possible that the gentle young ed letters with, had such a complicated and wretched past?
”Previously, you repeated a poeently tapped his fehtly and said, ”You only discovered through this poem that he was the author of 'Story of the Stone,' but if you think carefully you ht discover that Fan Xian used this poeer and bitterness”
One su, Fan Xian was drinking with Haitang, and had recited a poe, and I will suddenly encounter my savior; fortunate e you, spend your life helping the stranded and assisting the poor Do not love money, and be a ruthless uncle or treacherous brother! All your losses and gains are in the vault of Heaven”
On that winter day, Haitang repeated the poem in her heart and finally experienced the emotions her teacher spoke off She suddenly raised her head, stunned
If Fan Xian, currently far away in a hot pool in the Qing mountains, knew that this teacher-student duo had so hastily confirmed the circumstances of his birth from this little poeer and run naked all the way to Shangjing and scold them harshly Then he would explain that Lao Cao wrote this and it was a coincidence that it so soon recovered her calreat importance or it could not matter” Since she no the truth of Fan Xian's birth; she could see he must have do that needed careful consideration
”The information that Fan Xian is a descendent of the Ye clan… should be told to the world,” Great Grand was feeling slightly dazed, and didn't kno to best protect Fan Xian's interests
Ku He sighed slowly, ”Although the blind nize me, I think since he purposely acted and left these clues, perhaps… he wanted to useinformation with everyone in the world” The Great Grandmaster finally came to a conclusion: ”The blind man doesn't want to wait anymore; he wants Fan Xian to move faster”
