Chapter 319: Who Could Kill Commissioner Fan?
The countryside was still after the wind and snow
The scent of tea lingered in the roo pause before Haitang replied in a soft voice, ”I understand”
Ku He didn't look at her faceHe shtly and said, ”Didn't Fan Xian ask you for the Heart of Tianyi Dao? Give it to hi into raising her headShe wasn't sure if her teacher was joking or if he had gone crazy—the incouarded secretly; were they just going to casually handed it over to a powerful official of the south court?
Ku He save ht for er Fan Xian is, the more of a headache he is for the south court royal faood for Northern QiIf it will both satisfy my wishes as well as benefit the country, why shouldn't it be done?”
Haitang parted her lips but remained speechlessShe understand her teacher's true purpose and felt a chill in her heart
Although the teacher and student had guessed Fan Xian's connection to the Ye clan, they did not know of Fan Xian's other identityAnd so they assumed from their limited information that after Fan Xian's identity was revealed he could only be a fierce tiger within the Qing Kingdoo, disappeared in an instantThe royal fadom must take most of the responsibilityIn the eyes of Northern Qi, the stronger Fan Xian was, the dom would be in, and the safer their country would be
”Teacher, if Fan Xian isn't able to shoulder it, then what?”
All of the Ye clan's wealth had been taken by the Qing royal faically, once the news that Fan Xian was a descendent of the Ye clan got out, the Qing royal family would try to kill him as quickly as possible
However, Ku He shook his head and sighed quietly, ”The people who overthrew the Ye clan dou ran red with bloodI really cannot guess how things will develop afterwardsDoes the Ye clan still have ene within the southern Royal Palace? Perhaps that blind man also wants to use this matter to force those people to show themselves”
As Northern Qi's Imperial Advisor, Ku He needed to first consider Northern Qi's interestsThe kingdom of the mother and son in the Royal Palace, and even the difficulties Fan Xian would face, were not ahtly and said, ”With the blindfirmly behind hi attack, even if he failed and wanted to die, the blindthe Heart of Tianyi Dao would make Fan Xian very powerful—it seemed too riskyBesides, that co: the Heart of Tianyi Dao was originally given to her teacher by Fan Xian's mother!
”Lady Ye… exactly what kind of person was she?” Haitang was stunned
Ku He furrowed his brows and thought deeply for a long tiht she was a Goddess who did not meddle in the world of mortalsOnly later did I discover this was not the case”
”Tian”Lady Ye was a eniuses”
After a long ti respectfully saw off I her teacher's bare feet stepping into the snow, the girl asked softly, ”Teacher, Sir Xiao En?”
In the snow, Ku He's shadow paused and a moment later a soft voice said, ”In the saers in life but partners in deathIt's not so bad”
Haitang lowered her head to hide her surpriseUp until now, she had not known this
”These are thepeople have your oorldThe Heart… you need to hand it to Fan Xian personally” After Ku He finished this sentence, he stepped into the wind and snow, and disappearedWith the flip of his hat, he hid the old, bald head frodo rose from a patch of white snowDozens of beautiful crowned cranes were stretching their wings in dance, flying noback downScared and cowardly, they stretched out their long feet
and tentatively stepped towards snow-covered hot springs beneath the fog
The tehtly on the hot sideFan Xian soaked, half naked, in the hot springs with his eyes closed and his neck stretched out, resting on a hard and wet black rock beside the springMost of his body was sunk into the water, and hid skin left out was colored a light redAlthough not th as they lay on the rocks
Two slightly-thin fingers landed firht wristFei Jie closed his eyes while his eyebroitchedHis usually disheveled hair, wet fro water, lay ta been summoned to the capital did Fei Jie learn that Fan Xian had taken his whole fa Mountains for winter, and had hurried overThe teacher and student had spent today soaking in the hot springs surrounded by cedar treesSuch an enjoyood” Fei Jie slowly opened his eyes and withdrew his fingers, which had been taking Fan Xian's pulseThe o darker and darker”Usually it is difficult to see under all the clothes”
Fan Xian had also opened his eyes and sure a long tio” He paused and then asked, ”Teacher, is there a
way?”
Fei Jie took his towel fro; then he forcefully rubbed the so for ahis teacher's face, he knew that he had no good ideas for the rapidly exploding zhenqi in his body
”You won't eat the medicine I left for you,” Fei Jie said worriedly”Why are you refusing to accept help? If you take the reat loss of zhenqi, but at least it won't burst out”
Fan Xian shook his head”For reat loss of zhenqi and a complete loss?”
”The difference is ith to protect yourself”
Fan Xian laughed and his delicate face remained full of confidence”I have many ways to protect myself… you've known that ever since I was littleI was not a barbarian who depended on martial arts to conquer the worldI have always depended on otherEven if I lost all my zhenqi, I don't believe that if I ran into trouble I would only be able to wait to die”
Fei Jie stared into his eyes for a while before sighing, ”You really are a strange creatureFor a fighter, the importance of zhenqi is paraer Guards, and have the Sixth Bureau watching, you should still show some sentiment and disappointment”
”Those are unnecessary es he had received froed in his mind and he slowly said, ”If it can't be cured then I will accept this realitySighing won't help the situation at all”
Fan Xian, at the Cang Mountain hot springs, did not know that in the distant north, the enigmatic teacher-student pair had already deduced his identity as though it were child's playFurther of this identity to cause tur court and set hi aside whether or not Haitang would delay this , the distance between the two countries was very largeNo matter how fast rudom yetAnd so his identity as a descendent of the Ye clan was not yet Fan Xian's biggest danger, orthe zhenqi in his body, and to cure the punctured walls of his meridians
”Just look after yourself for now,” Fei Jie spoke after a long ive you a new prescription to takeAlso, don't throay the medicine I left you before—it still has its uses”
Fan Xian was a little surprisedHe wondered what the point was in continuing to take the power distribution medicine since his zhenqi had already dissipatedIn reality, Fei Jie also didn't knohat use it could do—he had just said it without thinking
Unexpectedly, it beca Mountain for a fortnightI wonder what's happening in Jingdou?” Fan Xian gently slapped the slightly hot water
water of the springs with a smile”You have just come from the capital, tell me about it”
”Every day, you receive at least a dozen reports,” Fei Jie scolded”Why are you asking an old man like me?”
Fan Xian chuckled
Fei Jie spoke coldly, ”You used your injury as an excuse to hide here in Cang Mountain while the Bureaussunk into turmoilThe north has captured hundreds of people and seized oodsThe accusations you pinned to the Cui clan have been nified family is about to be toppledYou, kid, really struck hard”
”It was all the court's wishes” Fan Xian explained with a smile
The Overwatch Council's declaration of war on Xinyang was unusually brutal and sudden, and they had struck very hardTheir spies, which were spread out across the country, had long controlled the Cui clan's northern syun of the Fourth Bureau suddenly attacked, they did not give Xinyang any tioods and silver
After all, Fan Xian was injured, and everyone in Jingdou kneas recovering at Cang MountainWho would have thought that the ill Commissioner would strike so suddenly and harshly? This plan had been in preparation since the suan after they received the E, even though Xinyang had power in various states, they had still suffered a great loss
Most ihClearly, the Eldest Princess had underestimated her own son-in-law
