”It's all the sahed”In any case, father and you both think the sale forcefully? It will be good to go West this timePresumably the blood and fire on the battlefield will beinto Fan Xian's eyes he said, sincerely, ”I've always been close to the Second Prince…there is so” seeuessed what he wanted to say and got in first by furrowing his brows and saying, ”I as that I cannot be the master ofFurthermore, who can be sure of all the victories and losses? There is no need to speak of such things before they happen”
Li Hongcheng shook his head calmly”You won't let me talk first because you're worried you won't be able to pro uncertain is trueNo matter how you look at it, it's impossible for you to defeat them within a few short yearsFor some reason, I just think you will be victorious in the end”
”You flatter et, he is your brother after all…your true brother,” Li Hongcheng looked into his eyes and said”If such a day really caive him a way out”
”You overestihtly and looked to the side of JingdouHe calmly said, ”He is a princeNo matter hoerful we are as officials, it is impossible for us to deterive him a way outIf one day, the Second Prince captured radually becah time to considerYou know that in the past year or so why I've shaved off his wings, but he won't do itHis heart is too big, so big that he can't control itSince it is so, if I continue to overly restrainslowly lowered his head and said, ”When he was 10, he was forced into the competition for the line of successionAfter all these years, it has becooalEven if there is just hiht” Fan Xian's face gradually becaht ar”If you walk a dozen li this way, there is the Fan family's country estateDo you knohat is over there?”
Li Hongcheng glanced at him
”Four people are buried there,” Fan Xian lowered his aruards are buried thereThey were the four guards who followed me everywhere after I entered the capitalThey were killed on Niulan Street”
He continued, ”The attack on Niulan Street was the Eldest Princess' idea, and it was arranged by the Second PrinceAlthough you were being used by someone, you also cannot deny that, no matter how you look at it, you were an accompliceIt was from that day on that I swore that if there was anyone else anted to kill dou, I would not show any mercy to them”
”In these three years, too many people have already diedI've lost many people on my side andbecome the fresh blood in the mud, impossible to wash cleanSince the Second Prince thinks he can continue to ith the Ye family's help, then I ith hi and slowly said, ”Since the Second Prince refuses to back out, then this matter has already become one of life and deathYou want ht that this would be the sa such a request of hed self-ain”I just hope this matter can be peacefully concluded”
”It will depend on the Crown Prince and the Second Prince's intentions!” Fan Xian said a line very similar to what the Emperor said”I as to conclude peacefully, we'll have to see how these two behave in front of the Emperor”
He paused and suddenly felt that in thiswas a bit too harshHe couldn't but help shake his head and soften his tone”By going West and not stopping between the Second Prince andwhere I acheng laughed bitterly”Are you thankingaway so that you won't feel reluctance when you swing your knife in the future?”
Both of the the reins, Fan Xian's heart ju West will be difficultYou have to be careful”
Li Hongcheng was silent for a long tientlyHe vaulted onto his horse and turned back to gaze Fan Xian for a momentHe quietly said, ”If I die in the West, remember to quickly tell Ruoruo of my deathOnce I'm dead, she won't need to hide in the North anyn landIt is incouessed at his sister's true reason for studying abroad and couldn't help a feeling of sha in his heartHe raised his hands in a salute and forced hihed loudly and cracked his whip in the airHis horse charged up the slopeLeading the other three riders, he rode directly West along the official road, sending up pluht with narrowed eyes and secretly prayed for Hongcheng's safety

At dusk, the Overwatch Council carriages heading to Jiangnan once again passed through the little valley where the attack happenedAs they drove along, they could still see the marks left by the battle on the htly dry lips as a powerful nan this ti, he would think of a way to chop off the head of the cabbage planting oldhad been transferred to be a Deputy at the Bureau of Military Affairs and lost his position in the Jingdou garrison, the old Qin master still, as usual, did not attend courtFan Xian had not gone to the Qin faenerous giftIt was likely that the other party didn't know that Fan Xian had already guessed the true identity of the culprit behind the attack in the valley
At thiswhat plans the E the attack in the valley, a few important positions in court had been replaced by new peopleHe had successfully carried out his plan to replace the old with the newHowever, the Qin and Ye families' were still very powerful in the militaryThe Emperor was certainly not pleased with this situation
What exactly will the Emperor do then? Fan Xian often asked hion chair, the transfer and purge in the military would be doneon right nohich continued to give the elders in the military sufficient opportunities to move
Perhaps the sudden advance in Xi Lake had completely wrecked all of the Emperor's plans, or perhaps the Northern Qi E Shanhu forced the Ely tedom's seven roads of elite soldiers, four had yet to coenerals that the Great Prince had nurtured during the Western expedition had not had a battlefield to demonstrate their abilityDid they need to take the Qin, Ye, and Yan three factions so seriously?
Fan Xian shook his head and faintly guessed at so them in like a prostituteHowever, this kind of plan was too absurd and carelessEven someone as presumptuous as Fan Xian wouldn't believe that the Edoes drove through the valley and went forward a few htsWearing the silver reet Fan XianHe then silently retreated back a around, no faction was able to threaten Fan Xian's safety within the Qing Kingdom outback
Fan Xian's heart suddenly juently clapped his hands
The carriage htlyA normal official of the Overwatch Council lifted the curtain and walked inFan Xian glanced at him and said, with admiration, ”No wonder you are the best assassin in the world, your skill with disguises is indeed much better than mine”
The Shadow didn't smile and said in a dead voice, ”What orders do you have?”
”Go back to the capital” Fan Xian stared into his eyes and used a tone of voice that allowed no questions”Immediately return to the Director sideFrom noard, don't leave his side at allYou must ensure his safety”
The Shadow furrowed his foreheadHe had personally been sent by Chen Pingping to Fan Xian's side, unexpectedlyNow, Fan Xian was suddenly asking hi's sideFan Xian didn't explain anything and directly said, ”You know o”
The Shadow thought for a bit and noddedIn a esHe dissolved into a streak of black shadow and quickly flew through the valley toward Jingdou
After Fan Xian confir's side, his tightly strung heart finally relaxedFor so the capitalIf it were just the matter of the Crown Prince, it would be a threat to the old cripple's safetyHowever, Fan Xian felt that sodou
Once the major event happened, the people in the Palace would know of the hidden power at his father's sideFurthermore, his father had always hidden it well so that if there was any et
Chen Pingping was not the sa those people would do would be to gather all their forces and exhaust all their
This was a true logic proved in the decades of unrest in theEh Fan Xian kneerful and shrewd the old Director was and how terrifyingly powerful the guards outside Chen Garden were, without the Shadow at his side, Fan Xian was still uneasy

The carriage went south past the hills beside Wei River, past the h the newly built riverbanks to arrive near YingzhouOne branch of the river transport yaht, Fan Xian didn't su Wanli to visit hiSecond, he urgently needed to check the council reports that canan water bandits had sent over
Fan Xian sat by the table and read the files by the faint lantern lightHe couldn't resist laughing self-erous areas as to beco E the people andcourt systeht, the sound of night watches came from the streetsFan Xian had already co clothes to hide his appearance
Since the big picture had yet to in
In a broken-down tereen banner and saw Thirteenth wang below the banner looking in a daze at the statue
”I am very pleased about the matter with the little arrow brother”
Fan Xian sat opposite hihtly, ”However, I heard you were injuredYou see forced a smile and said, ”My body reat that it's sturdy because I a,” Fan Xian szhou and Suzhou, but you need to go first and o out on my behalf and help hed”A large alanced at hi fa there”
”NonsenseIf Yu Zhilan wasn't keeping an eye out, ould I have you go?” Fan Xian sht with Dongyi, so it is more appropriate for you to show your face”
Thirteenth wang forced a laugh and said, ”I a my master's attitudeIt doesn't mean that I will represent him to subdue brother disciple Yun”
”I ayi would have internal strife” Fan Xian shook his head and looked at the green banner beside him”However, I am the owner of this account…but it's not convenient for me to show my face, and the sainally thought to use a rando fahly skilled, so, naturally, you don't have to be afraid of these vulgar threats on your life”
Thirteenth wang said, with shock, ”Why do you trust me so much? Are you not worried I will steal this account? Are you not worried I will tell everything to the Ming fa to ier” Fan Xian didn't care that he couldn't understand these neords”As for the Ming fao and tighten the rope”
Thirteenth wang sighed sorrowfully and said, ”Sir Fan junior, I am not your assassin”
”Attitude” Fan Xian sSince your master wants to stay neutral, then he needs to demonstrate his attitudefaoods heading East is free flowing”
”If the channel East is not free flowing, those who suffer a loss include your Qing Kingdo threatened by others
Fan Xian said, seriously, ”Qing Kingdos to the E a lossHowever, Dongyi is your gest difference”
Chapter 484 Attitude DeterTranslator Nyoi Bo Studio Editor Nyoi Bo StudioThe talent of an actor was directly proportional to the size of the lie, which was directly proportional to theFan Xian deeply believed inIn court, each of thereatest interest in the worldEven if the Crown Prince told hieThe proble how much truth or lie was in the Crown Prince s wordsIf he was in the Crown Prince s position, would he make such a promise What about what happened in the past Given the Crown Prince s innate position and the eer s favoritism, as well as his secret connection to the Eldest Princess, if he also obtained the support of Fan Xian with the Overwatch Council and palace treasury, no one would be able to obstruct his future ascension to the throneIf he could find a way to gain Fan Xian s support, the Crown Prince ht be able to make a sufficient sacrificeGiven Fan Xian s life experience and knowledge, he didn t think such an exchange could happenUnless the Crown Prince truly became someone without a father or mother, or if he really did become such a person, how could Fan Xian sit equally with him He and the Crown Prince chatted warmlyOccasionally, he would think of when he first arrived in Jingdou and the kind attitude hich this Crown Prince of the Eastern Palace had treated himThis made the cloud of complicated emotions in his heart even thickerIs Sister Wan er well After walking in the Royal Palace for this long, it just happened that it was the Crown Prince as the first to directly ask about Wan erFan Xian smiledHis mind was a bit distractedHe answered the Crown Prince haltingly, but his eyes were on the other person s face, looking at him intentlyGradually, he noticed details he didn t usually seeThe Crown Prince was very lonely and pitifulThe sun was already setting as he walked out of the Eastern PalaceThe light dusky red light shone on the red palace walls and gradually spread out,the cold resistant short trees around his of the Palace covered with a red color, an unlucky red colorFan Xian s hands were behind his backHis expression was calhts were focused on the Crown PrinceJust like his feeling in that instant earlier, thinking about it carefully now, Fan Xian realized that, including him, of the five princes, the one as the most pitiful was actually the Crown PrinceHe was only a little older than himBefore he was born, the Ye family had collapsed, but what about the Crown Prince Four years after the Ye fadou ran red with blood, the Crown Prince s randfather had died at his own father s handHe had lost more family than even himselfFrom then onward, the Crown Prince had lived alone in the Palace and in a state of constant tension and uneaseHis only supporters were the eer and empress who loved himNo, the empress didn t countJust as his father said, the reason the Ee the heir was because the empress was very stupid and her relatives had already been wiped outThis was a situation the Emperor neededThe only person the Crown Prince could rely on was the eerHowever, because of the environ recollections of the past, it caused the Crown Prince s mediocre and timid personalityHe didn t have friendsIt was impossible for him to have friends, so he could only stay silentThe Emperor did not wish for his heir to stay silent like this forever, so he had picked out the Second Prince in an attempt to sharpen the knife that was the Crown PrinceIn the end, he also picked out Fan Xian to bring down the Second Prince and continue testing the Crown PrinceThis was a an abnorical problemsSilence, ah, silenceIf one didn t explode in silence, one would be perverted by itIt seemed like the Crown Prince had chosen the latterHowever, there was no part of hiFan Xian approached the foot of the palace walls and turned his head to look at the fire like brilliance the ht of duskHe narrowed his eyes slightly and sighedWhen did he ever want to stand in opposition to you Between the Crown Prince and Second Prince, Fan Xian actually leaned more toward the Crown Prince because he knew the mercilessness beneath the Second Prince s war the Second Prince down and save the other person s life, but he could not use the same trick on the Crown Prince because the Crown Prince s position was too specialHe would either ascend through the clouds or bleed out and dieThe Second Prince had to do soave Fan Xian too many opportunitiesIt was the exact opposite for the Crown PrinceHe didn t need to do anything and could not do anythingOnly then would he naturally inherit the throneOnce the Crown Prince understood this, he would behave as he had this year with unusual cleverness and cal with cold eyesHowever, calenerosityIf Fan Xian was truly fooled by this illusion and allowed his heart to soften, once the other person ascended to the throne, ould welcome Fan Xian It would certainly be the ee and the Eldest Princess eAt that time, would the Crown Prince still treasure his life However, the Second Prince had not retreated froed inHe gently squeezed his fists to ht to himself, It is not easy for anyone to survive in this world, so don t blaly on fire Royal Palace in the dusk and tilted his head slightlyThe origin of all of this was actually the on chairFan Xian suddenly felt a glied e of huuise and hurt his heartWhen it was all said and done, everyone was cruelThe sky was bright with few cloudsAlthough spring had not yet arrived, the sky had already clearedOn the two sides of the official road outside the Jingdou city gates, winter trees reached into the air with scraggly branches and scared those far away froes filed out froates and lined up on the side of the roadAt the saroup of people ahead to disperseA youngunder the shade erected in front of the carriage, he looked in that directionHe furrowed his brows slightly andFebruaryHe could no longer find any douIn these circumstances, he knew that it was better for hidou as possibleOnly then would he not be dragged under in the after that gave hihly and decided to have Wan er stay in Jingdou to look after her and have hidouHaving learned from his previous experience, he didn t tell e didn t hear about itThe leaving this time appeared to be relatively quiet and a bit lonelierFan Xian looked at the Qing soldiers ahead ere gathering into groups and furrowed his brows slightlyIn a short while, a few riders detached from the more emotional military send offThese riders headed directly back and rode toward Fan Xian s group of carriages with the clip clop of horse hoovesFan Xian se to waitThe lead rider was a ht armorHe looked very heroicBehind him were a few of his deputiesThe military official rode to a stop in front of Fan Xian, slapped his whip, and disileIt was only after he took off his helentle face did one realize that this was actually King Jing s heir, Li HongchengWho would have thought that ould be leaving the capital at the sa patted Fan Xian heavily on the shoulder and shedYou were fine staying in JingdouWhy enter the military For men in this world, of course, we have to work for merit, but it doesn t necessarily have to be on the battlefieldIf the master hadn t told dom had conquered their lands on horseback, and the people s customs were simple and valiantEvenand eneration, they were used to joining the areneration, the Great Prince was afrom the position of a minor military officer, he had clicheng was silent for a dou, father will continue to shut me up in thein prisonI would rather go West and fight with the strange Hu people than suffer such treat timeHe then raised his head and slowly said, You have to be careful, otherwise I ll feel apologeticIf I can uilty, this expedition will have been worth itLi Hongcheng was slightly startled and laughedDuring a lifetioalsMy entry into the Western expedition troops this time is also to fulfill a childhood dreamFan Xian said, I had no idea you had such dreaht that your dreahedAware that there were still a number of other people around the led his horse by the reins and walked shoulder to shoulder with Fan XianThey came to a slope below the official roadsHere, the branches of the leafless trees grew denser and split the diht from the sky into pieces of severe coldSilenceNo one could hear the conversation between theradually rose to his faceHe said without restraint, The events of these two years have dou, I cannot beat you and neither can the Second Prince this is goodI ll leave Jingdou for you to play in, and I ll go WestFan Xian forced a smile and didn t knohat to sayA moment later, he sincerely said, Your path to Xi Lake is far and dangerousYou have to be careful although gaining erousAlthough the Great Prince now holds great military power in his hands, you kno hard it was for the first few years in the WestLi Hongcheng nodded his head thoughtfully and said, Since I have joined the military, I have prepared hts, otherwise, he wouldn t have given his consentThe so called thought was that he had truly decided he was going to leave the sickening and dangerous codouHowever, Fan Xian remembered that the head of the Western expedition this time was still the Ye family, the Second Prince s father in law s faeHe looked at Li Hongcheng s face and resisted again and againIn the end, he couldn t resistHe opened hisis the Second Prince s father in lawSince you ve decided to not participate in the matters in the capital He hadn t even finished his re had already waved his hand to stop his wordsHe calmly said, RelaxI will do what I promised youI am not a stupid person however he smiledYou seem a bit overly cleverThus, it is very difficult for people like me to find an opportunity to show our abilitiesParticularly in the past two years, you used father to keep me in placeIf I don t lower my head to you, I would probably still be under house arrestFan Xian laughed bitterlyIt s notme to suppress youYou have to be clear on this pointIt s all the sahedIn any case, father and you both think the
