The other coitimate child Furthermore, he was the Third Prince's teacher Most i from his actions these years, Sir Fan junior had no interest in the throne
For the officials and mistresses in the palace, whether or not Fan Xian had an interest was a question worth careful consideration For now, the Third Prince's road was bright and the support at his side was true The future of the entire Qing Kingdoood Unifiedevery day Each person's spirit see upward
…
…
Fan Xian traveled at double speed the entire way When he returned to Jingdou, it was already dusk After entering the palace, the day had becoently ru his brows and thinking that he should have gone to Xinfeng Restaurant first and gotten soht However, he carried a heavy responsibility given to hi to the capital to report, he didn't dare linger outside the Palace
Just as he was silently fu a food box into the royal study
The Eh the inner court informed him Fan Xian had returned to the capital, he couldn't make it at the moment Fan Xian looked in surprise at the food box and smiled ”You know I haven't eaten?”
Eunuch Yao usually followed the Emperor's side The head eunuch on duty outside the royal study was also an old friend of Fan Xian's It was Eunuch Dai who had perfor the rebellion in the palace
Eunuch Dai looked at Fan Xian with a smile and said, ”You anxious about state affairs, so presu hour I've picked so dinner in the back palace Even if he wanted to award you a bowl of caviar with rice, there isn't tian his attack on the contents of the food box As a subject, sitting in the royal study while the Emperor was not present was already a cri for an edict in the royal study was an evenreceived a special edict, so he sat cal at the side He thought Sir Fan junior was indeed not like other officials Iht of thesensationally all under heaven Eunuch Dai warht of the historical deed Sir Fan junior had done for the Qing Kingdo to reward him? The reason this head eunuch was so excited was because he knew much of his future lay in the Emperor's hand But, a smaller portion was completely in his relationshi+p to Sir Fan junior
His life in the palace had gone smoothly until Fan Xian showed up Only then did he start to experience ain Since he had done well during the Jingdou rebellion, he was now the deputy head eunuch His status was far more respected than when he had been in Lady Shu's palace
So fear If he had stayed in Lady Shu's palace, he would probably be ati back fro him had also once been favored and served in the royal study Unfortunately, he served in the Eastern Palace Although he had not co, his status had fallen a thousandfold
Fan Xian put down his chopsticks and spoke warmly with Eunuch Dai for a little while Only then did he slowly turn his gaze toward the person behind the eunuch Looking at the increasingly sole eunuch, whose acne was still as clear as day, he calmly said, ”So, you still haven't died That is so Zhu's expression was respectful as he bowed toward Fan Xian and replied, ”I have just received the Erace and came out from the Cold Palace earlier in the year”
”In the future, remember to serve the Emperor carefully,” Fan Xian spoke neutrally
Eunuch Dai casually said so Zhu away fro been ru and Sir Fan junior did not see eye to eye Back then, it had been Sir Fan junior who had kicked hi at the situation now, this was indeed probably the case
He couldn't help but laugh coldly in his heart Even though Hong Zhu had been looked after by old Eunuch Hong back then, he still wasn't a match for the little Duke's hand that extended in fro Zhu's position in the palace was now very aard
When Eunuch Dai left the royal study, he co each other's eyes with entle, not easily noticed, nod
It was co his thoughts Hong Zhu co been liked by the nobles in the palace During the rebellion, it appeared Hong Zhu knew nothing at all, so reinstating hi that matter, Fan Xian had taken many roundabout ways to help hio, Fan Xian no longer thought about it At least, this eunuch had helped hireat deal In ter Zhu and not the other way around
As he thought this, the sound of hurried footsteps rang out froh the darkness through the glass and floated in this direction
Fan Xian quickly drew back his stretching arms and stood to welcome the Emperor
The door to the royal study was pushed open The Qing Ee steps His slightly thin face was cale and the toll these years had taken on his spirit
The group of serving eunuchs did not enter Cleverly, Eunuch Yao closed the door tightly behind them There was only the Emperor and Fan Xian left in the royal study
The Ereat ease on the soft couch and rubbed his knees with his hands His eyes looked at Fan Xian Suddenly, he laughed
Fan Xian was coh and stood aardly where he was
The Eood”
Since it was good, why did he shake his head? Fan Xian laughed uncomfortably He took out the case of secret reports the Council had prepared and placed it on the table in the center of the soft couch
The Ean to read The case was filled with the initial results of the negotiation between the Qing Kingdoyi, as well as the Overwatch Council's analysis of Dongyi's bottoyi provided, and the details of the division of people and finances
The yi had shocked the entire world The diplootiations and Fan Xian both dou about the details The Eotiation details but, after all, the two places were very distant To truly have a first-hand account of the situation required Fan Xian to return to Jingdou to make a report
The E to a wall of the royal study, he pulled open the curtains hanging across
Below the curtain was a large map of the entire world The various provinces and areas were all drawn clearly Even the seashores to the east and south were draith great detail This dom's territories, but it also included the territories of Northern Qi and Dongyi
The first time Fan Xian truly entered the royal study to discuss state affairs, he had sat with theE his borders At the time, there were three princes by the Eone
The Eht inside the royal study was bright, it wasn't like the shadow-free la theatre Wherever his hand moved on the map, that area would be in a patch of darkness It was like a black arrowhead containing endless power and representing tens of thousands of troops filled with yi and the vassal states surrounding it He lightly tapped it The E a single soldier or firing a single arrow, I have obtained this piece of land Fan Xian, tell otiations haven't come to an end Plus, there is internal conflict within the Sword Hut I'm also afraid that the nobility of the vassal states will turn traitorous Most i troops will cause a rebound in Dongyi”
Fan Xian responded with a sh the Emperor's expression was calm, he could not hide the joy deep in his heart This E the world and establishi+ng a 10,000-generation legacy, had spent decades getting rid of Ku He and Sigu Jian He was now able to take the first step in a 10,000-step journey It was iu Jian?” The E the question of reward
”Completely crippled He is certain to die within three months” Fan Xian answered quickly and cleanly
The Ehed ”So, he's about to die I truly admire that sword-obsessed idiot He endured Uncle Liuyun's scattered hands and another punch by th of his physical forest of all of us”
Naturally, his words excluded Wu Zhu
Fan Xian's eyes htly He quietly said, ”It is also fortunate that Sigu Jian didn't die Only he could suppress the powerful warriors in the Sword Hut Without his consent, the negotiations would probably not have been successful”
The E He could never quite understand this son of his Was he speaking for Sigu Jian? What purpose was there in speaking for a Great Grandht for a bit and then said, ”I think the negotiations will continue until next year At that tio However, since he had already decided and delivered it all around, presumably his disciples in the Sword Hut would not disobey his wishes”
”Will Thirteenth wang take over as the Master of the Sword Hut?” The E about Fan Xian and Thirteenth wang's private friendshi+p He cared that the Master of the Sword Hut had to be someone controllable if he wanted to truly control the territories of Dongyi
Thirteenth wang, had deep connections with the Qing Kingdoardless of his ability, first and foremost, he was sohtened Hisceremony for the Sword Hut was delayed a u Jian is thinking about leaving the Sword Hut to”
”There is no need to inquire,” The Eyi truly submits, the Master of the Sword Hut will have to follow ive my approval, it won't work”
Fan Xian's u Jian would forcibly expose the Shadow's identity and have him become the second Master of the Sword Hut Now, it seemed he should be worried about otherthe Dalai La about it closely, the Edoyi, in the hearts of the Dongyi people, the true master was still the disciple of the Sword Hut This would probably be clearly stated in the negotiation between the two countries The Qing Kingdoyi within 50 years
If the Qing Kingdom didn't have the authority in naures, what kind of submission was this?
”I will yi” Fan Xian didn't hesitate and agreed straightforwardly
