”You've really offended the Eldest Princess this tihed and shook his head ”The Cui clan was one of the Eldest Princess's hands, and you have chopped it off Are you not afraid that she…?”
Although he didn't finish speaking, Fan Xian understood his teacher's inning, I also had worries However, after I battled against His Second Highness, I suddenly discovered that I have nothing to worry about With the Ereat power of the Overwatch Council… who could stand against ant person, and so sat quietly to listen to his next words
”The resources in hed ”Whether it is the Princes or the Ministers in the court, none can stand against h I only understand now that it is not just the direction I want to take, but also a direction where I will develop this kind of confidence… perhaps even pride for my position as the Commissioner of the Overwatch Council
”The people who can stand against me in the court today… are few,” Fan Xian concluded without expression ”The court, at its core, is an organization based on strength Other than the army, there is not another yamen who is comparable to the Overwatch Council, and the E the Cui clan out of the capital this tih the Eldest Princess has her own influence in the ardou early in the beginning of spring What is Xinyang going to use to co to the changing situation and with the influence of Chen Pingping and Fan Jian ere… comrades of his mother, as well as with the i man had risen to unbelievable power in just two short years Even he had never truly experienced his power until he was able to easily banish His Second Highness in Jingdou Only then did he suddenly realize he see as the E as that old woive consideration for his royal blood, as long as Chen Pingping stayed retired at Chen Garden and gave hin with the Overwatch Council… Fan Xian would stand fir court, and would not have to worry about anything
Fei Jie suddenly said, ”Yan Xiaoyi is in the north—did he not act this tizhou There are countless ferocious generals and hundreds of thousands of brave soldiers,” Fan Xian mocked, ”but they didn't have the time to react However, some key members of the Cui clan have escaped toward the cazhou”
Fei Jie stared at him and suddenly smiled ”Not bad, not bad indeed”
Fan Xian finally showed sos going this syun”
Fei Jie sed to pull Ruohai's precious son into your ca for you You… have really done well”
Fan Xian was silent and suddenly reme Mountainwith Wan'er and others He wondered if he should invite Mister Yan to the mountain for the winter after the Cui clanMountain, his spirit suddenly lifted, and he made an earnest request to Fei Jie: ”Teacher, please carefully consider the matter we discussed yesterday”
Fei Jie's brows furrowed; he coughed a few tiirl who is as beautiful as a freshly-bloomed flower to study medicine with me… isn't that too pitiable? Even if I pro would not allow it”
”Leave father to me,” Fan Xian said earnestly ”My baby sister truly likes medicine, please consider it”
Fei Jie scolded, ”I'hed He knew that if his teacher was angry, he had agreed
After a while, a trace of worry flashed across Fei Jie's brow He said, ”Have you thought about the fact that the Director and I are both getting old? There will be a day ill not be here”
Fan Xian was silent, and suddenly spoke after a mouessed my past”
Fei Jie nodded expressionlessly ”At least up until now, the Emperor… has treated you very well”
Fan Xian did not deny this For the Eh to hand him the Overwatch Council and the treasury, positions of power that were difficult even for Princes to achieve, it would be enough for most people to compensate any issue of nainally from this world What he wanted was actually much simpler, and how he viewed probleinally belonged to ive the shameless
Fei Jie did not cohed, ”The year ere in Danzhou, you said you wanted to be a doctor or a chef I was actually very happy, but also a little disappointed There had to be someone who could inherit Lady Ye's family business Only, now that I see you have inherited everything froret this in the future”
Fan Xian understood His teacher orried that one day the Eht suddenly feel he held too much power and could become a threat to future Emperors What would happen then? He smiled and comforted Fei Jie, ”Don't worry I think the Emperor will believe in my loyalty for at least a few years”
He touched the scar on his chest The area of the scar was a little itchy and looked very ferocious today; it had turned red soaking in the hot springs
”Don't forget, she is the ehter,” Fei Jie warned ”Furthermore, she is crazy She isn't a match for you on the battlefield but she will use some crazy methods, like what happened on Niulan Street”
Fan Xian suddenly sank into a deep silence, and spoke after a arden As for within Jingdou… even if she is going to do so crazy, she has to consider the Eet even, her best choice would be to kill dou, under the eye of the Eood you understand this”
”I aht now”
There was a tch sound, just like the sound of so a knife to slice apart a piece of rice paper
Over 1,500 feet behind the Cang Mountain hot springs, on the crystalline snoeen the cedar trees, a flash of brilliant red liquid suddenly fleard and landed on the ground It iround beneath it, and the color took a long time to fade away
An assassin covered his throat and utter a choked sound before falling onto the snow
The swordsman from the Sixth Bureau of the Overwatch Council slowly pulled back his ice sword and saluted Gao Da, as over 30 feet away, then disappeared into the snow
”Number seven” Gao Da's face was serious and he still carried that long knife on his back He gave an order to his subordinate, ”Move it to the back of the mountain and burn it in a while”
Gao Da was deep in thought Recently, there had beenMountain to assassinate Commissioner Fan He also knehere these assassins were co was indeed a little crazy After the Cui clan was destroyed, they chose the e… it was unfortunate they had underestith of the protection around Coiven to Fan Xian by the Euards
In this battle between the assassins and guards, as truly terrifying were the swordsinally assassins, and were the Qing Kingdom's official assassins As they were in the snowyenviron They let none escape After three days, although they had already killed seven assassins, they remained unharmed
Gao Da looked at the red blood suards and he learned today that although he and the other Tiger Guards were ideal for killing and intercepting, the people of the Six Bureau of the Overwatch Council wereand protection
As the leader of the Tiger Guards, he knew that if these Sixth Bureau swordsainst him face to face, no one would be able to defeat him However, the probleht face to face
Gao Da silently thought that if the assassin leader of the Sixth Bureau tried to assassinate hi
After Fan Xian was injured, the protection around hione up a few levels Particularly after Chen Pingping's great display of anger, the Sixth Bureau of the Overwatch Council acted out of shaht away they placed 12 swordsman around Fan Xian's person—this standard of protection had, in the past, only been used by the Ean to often use the Tiger Guards, only the Chen Garden had such tight protection
After Fan Xian learned about this matter, he didn't roup to leave, and refused to let anyone follow hi Zi Yue and Su Wener,” he treated it like a joke The old cripple had someone stabme properly, he is truly shath of the Overwatch Council, so si had sent to Cang Mountain was currently hiding in the snohite clothing He carefully observed everything that was happening on the ; his life had long been given to Her Highness, the Eldest Princess However, as he looked at the scene before hi a chill in his heart It had already been three days Neverassassins hadn't even been able to see Fan Xian's face! The consecutive deaths of his subordinates had forced the leader to consider, for the first time, a teer Guards guarding Fan Xian, he would have the confidence to try it Xinyang had guessed that Fan Xian's injury was strange, and suspected that it wouldn't heal anytime soon
The problem was in the Sixth Bureau of the Overwatch Council: the official assassins were too powerful They seee scent on the snow, and could find all the hidden ele would only be able to kill hi a branch of their army up the mountain!
The assassin leader furrowed his brows and decided to slide down the tree, and return to Xinyang to report the details of their failure this time He was very confident in hisspecifically with the Sixth Bureau of the Overwatch Council, he was confident that he would be able to kill Fan Xian next tihtly and a piece of snow entered his neck At first it was a slight cold, and then an extreme freeze
