At the tables to the side, the colorings of the officials who had heard their subordinate's reports gradually becalier, particularly that of the Second PrinceHis delicate appearance gradually became white, then it immediately flushed redYet, three breaths later, it had become normal

Fan Xian watched this scene with slanted eyesHe knew that the other party had already learned of the news of all the deaths of his Eight Generals, but he had not thought that the Second Prince would immediately able to restrain his expressionHe couldn't help but feel a little admiration

The Great Prince furrowed his brows and asked, ”What happened?”

The Second Prince smiledHis smile was rather bitterThe depths of his heart was icy coldThe legs crossed on his body felt nu Overwatch Council Co at a slightly s demonAs a prince, he didn't knohat reaction he should immediately make

So, he raised his cup and drank aloneHe erew in his chest

After a moment of silence, the Deputy of the Bureau of Military Affairs, Qu Xiangdong, stared at Fan Xian and said in a cold voice, ”Tonight, enerals in the Second Prince's manor were killed at the same timeSir Fan junior, do you know of this matter?”

After these words came out, the Great Prince, who didn't knohat exactly had happened, looked at Fan Xian in shockThe Crown Prince, who had been hiding in the beauty's ar to be muddled, also let out a surprised cry and suddenly sat up from the beauty's embrace

The Crown Prince stared at Fan Xian's cal incomparable shock in his heartHe knew that Fan Xian did not have good intentions, but he truly did not think that Fan Xian's retaliation would be this si of consequences

Under everyone's gaze, Fan Xian…tilted his headWith a glihtly said, ”Oh? Are they all dead?”

The Second Prince was just putting down his wine cup when he heard Fan Xian's questionThe elier be controlledHe placed his cup down a little hardThe wine cup thunked onto the table, knocking askew the wine-jar beside it

Learning froenerals had truly all died, Fan Xian's heart was as sh itHe didn't purposely hide his expression and senerals have to do with enerals of the Second Prince walk very arrogantly in JingdouThey've must have offended many people they could not afford to offend”

Since the beginning of this feast, this was the first time he had referred to hiht Generals had once offended but could not afford to do so…it was very clear, the person's surname was Fan

The feast was absolutely silentThe Second Prince gazed in a daze at Fan Xian and then suddenly sardless of whether or not the other party had done this, to have the power to co the feast in such a short ti this prince could oppose face-to-face

He raised his cup and toasted Fan XianSincerely, he said, ”The Commissioner has incredible methods…and boldness”

Fan Xian raised his cup to hness, please li couldn't co is like this”

The Deputy of the Bureau looked at these two ”princes,” who bore a remarkable resemblance to each other, and couldn't help an absurd e at the present situation, the Second Prince was not a match for Fan XianIn terms of titles, Fan Xian was, after all, an official, how could he be so daring?

Qu Xiangdong suddenly felt like he was old and ti his mouth to ask Fan Xian, ”Sir Fan junior, you should know about thea dozen court officials, right?”

Fan Xian carefully used both his hands to return the wine cup to the tableHe raised his head and said, ”I am the Commissioner of the Overwatch Council as well as the leader of the First Bureau, by idouWithout my nod, who dares to capture those vermin?”

pedestriansThere were only nightwalkersWho knethe cover of darkness to hide in the streets, alleys, and under the eaves in Jingdou using nooses, sharp knives, metal drills, chains on doors, and powder to ensnare people s necks, slice open their throats, rip through someone s body, and confuse somebody s eyesFresh blood covered everyone s eyesA black chain hung from the main door of Zizhu ParkAt the end of a chain in their death throes, their feet kicked weakly in the cold windThe light from the lantern was very dis and cast sinister shadows and faint light onto the groundIn the corner, Deng Zi Yue s pale face was so like a dehtHe stared at the person and turned to leave after confir his deathOn Guili Lane, inside a brothel, the sheets were all tossed about and the ace on the bed with strong and powerful muscles suddenly opened his eyes wideThreads of blood appeared on his eye whitesThe prostitute on his were opened very wide, yet they tightly held down his waistThe position was obscene but fatalAfter an indeterminable amount of time, the prostitute s slender, clever, and pale hands slowly moved away from the man s ears and drew out two very slender ht lay on top of the drills, as well as black colored bloodAt Gaoshan Tower, the sound of a panicked chase rose upA person was panicked and fearfulThey ran toward the foot of the toith shock and fear in their facesThe clothes on his body had already been sliced into countless pieces and fresh blood dripped downA moment later, he was trapped by the killer beneath the towerThe black clothedafter him spat out a mouthful of saliva that had a trace of blood in it and waved his handBlack clothed ed forward and surrounded the h his martial ability was very powerful and he resisted with all his strength, he was still like a whale being besieged by a group of sharksGradually, they became unable to endureIn the darkness, only the sounds ofof the wind could be heardThe black clotheduntil the person in the limmer of nerve reactionThey were like a piece of rotten ht the report to the candle flame to burn itHis hands did not shake at all, and his broere no longer furrowedSince the matter had already happened, there could not be a trace of doubt, just like how after the crossboas triggered, there was no one who could make that arrohich could kill people, disappear into thin airThe Eight Generals the Second Prince personally led were a total of six people and had all died under the Overwatch Council s attack from different methods and at different locationsThey had all disappeared into Jingdou s dark nightFroht Generals would become a trite ht to be recorded in historyYan Bingyun lowered his head and looked at the piece of paper on the tableHe unconsciously squeezed the bridge of his nose to clear his state ofto the plan, the next step should immediately be carried outAs for the rest of the five people that needed to be killed, there were already particular people responsible for theh this was the Overwatch Council s crazy revenge on the attack in the valley, Yan Bingyun still had to think of ways to control the situation within a certain rangeThe Second Prince s eight generals were not officials, they were just private generals of hisas the Overwatch Council killed them cleanly and did not leave behind any evidence, the court could not do anything to Fan XianHowever, those five people were not the sameThe officials they had to capture were also not like thatAlthough the officials were all unremarkable people from various departments, they were all paid by the courtWhat kind of chaos would they create after capturing so hed and inforh a secrethis order, he habitually walked back to theto glance distantly at the not very far away corner of the Royal PalaceHe thought to himself that what the Director had initially said was very correctBelow Fan Xian s warreat factor of crazinessHe had only lost a dozen trusted aides in the valley, yet Fan Xian was already demented to this extentIf it was as the Director said, when the Director passed in the future what kind of terrifying person would Fan Xian become Inside Baoyue Brothel, Fan Xian s expression arhtly raisedHe was unspeakably agreeable as if he had no idea of as happening outside in Jingdou s nightHe had finished telling about the attack in the valleyRegardless of whether the various officials at the feast felt fear or regret, they all expressed their sympathies to hi to Jiangnan, the Ming family, and Palace TreasuryHe then furrowed his brows and said, Actually, there is so hard for the court in Jiangnan, as there always someone in the capital who liked toto the about In the year that Fan Xian was far away in Jiangnan, if one were to say that no one put rocks in his way, that was definitely i stones 365 days and one each day, just which one were you talking about The investigation into the Ministry of Revenue Sending books into the Palace Besides, these tripping stones had long been taken care off by those oldabout here The Crown Prince couldn t resist laughingly scolding, How can you feel so wronged If you re speaking of those who don t see eye to eye with you, they certainly existBut if you are talking of those who purposely pull you back, you won t be able to name anyoneFan Xian also smiled and shook his headIt is just that I haven t been back to Jingdou in a year, I think, perhaps, there are otten what I a the wine cup and closely savoring the alcoholHearing these words, a sudden chill twisted from the bottom of his heart for soe, while Fan Xian s attitude was too arrogantIt was arrogance that did not follow reason, and that did not follow rulesIt was of no benefit to hi very stifled about the valley ether prettily, thinking, It hasn t even been found who did itWhat are you trying to do bya ruckus here with us The downstairs of Baoyue Brothel suddenly became lively and the clip clop of horse hooves could be heardIt see this wayThe Crown Prince, as sitting at the head, furrowed his brows and said unhappily, Who dares to make such a claazed out theIt seemed like someone wanted to enter Baoyue BrothelThey had already successfully passed through the layers of defense that were the Jingdou garrison and the bailiffs of the Jingdou government, but they had been stopped outside by the people of Baoyue BrothelFan Xian glanced at Sang Wen, and she understoodShe lifted
