Seeing the carriage drive off into the distance and hearing the faint clahtly yu Hall at Twenty-eight-Li Hill was a way to take advantage of the chaos in JingdouHe wanted to bring the old shopkeepers of Qingyu Hall out of Jingdou and disperse them into society
This was not an idea Fan Xian suddenly hadIt had been a part of his plan froThese old shopkeepers were irasp of the crafts in the palace treasury and fadoiven consideration for past affections and left thedou to fall into the hands of other powersFrom the fall of the Ye family to now, it had already been 20 yearsIt was practically idou
The Eldest Princess's and Crown Prince's rebellion, along with the chaos in Jingdou, gave Fan Xian, who had been carefully planning this ht the Edou was in chaosA gliht appeared in front of Fan Xian's eyes
He really had no people he could use right nowIn addition, he later faintly guessed that the Eht still be alive, so he temporarily stopped this planHowever, the last words the Eldest Princess had said by his ear in Taiping Courtyard were enough to have him make up his mindEven without the Eldest Princess's words, he would still have done all he could to inning, the battle between the Emperor and Eldest Princess had been carried out on a different levelAlthough Fan Xian had always stayed silent and seemed to be a pawn to be hts
He was sure that Jingdou would fall into chaos, so he chose to fish in troubled waters and be usedThe light in his eyes and strategies were all incisive
…
…
Without even co the sad and sorrowful Wan'er, Fan Xian turned and walked out of the manor doorThe Eldest Princess's reardenHe had to return to the Royal Palace to deal with more important problemsSince he knew of the news that the Emperor was fine, he had to make some forceful adjustroup of riders approached in a cloud of dustFan Xian looked with narrowed eyes, not sure who they belonged toThe situation in Jingdou had long been settledThe Dingzhou ar and the officials handed the defense of the Royal Palace back to the Great PrinceThere were no more rebel soldiers within the city
The newcozhou armyAn officer covered in blood-stains pulled his horse to a stopTu off his horse, he crawled to Fan Xian and said with fear and urgency, ”Duke, the Coent news to report”
There were countless fierce generals and talented people in the Qing KingdomThe soldiers of various Roads all habitually referred to their zhou arFan Xian wondered if sodouHe had been in a rush to see Ye Zhong, so he didn't say anything roup toward Donghua GateAlong the way, he listened silently and finally learned what had happened
Listening to the officer's explanation, only now did Fan Xian learn that while he had been in Taiping Courtyard, Ye Zhong had been searching for hiqian had been blocked by Ye Zhong at Donghua GateAt this tiotiationFor soh the Ye family had suddenly defected, the rebel soldiers were still powerfulThe battle for power of the re soldiers could not be underestiht that the Crown Prince would be trapped within JingdouNo one would have thought there was such a dangerous confrontation hidden by soate that seeo
He narrowed his eyes slightly and took in a cold breathIf the rebel soldiers had been kicked out of Jingdou, once the battlefield operations happened, it had nothing to do with him at allNaturally, it would be taken over by the Ye family and soldiers of various roads loyal to the Ehua Gate? Why didn't the Crown Prince just charge out?
As he thought about this, the horses' hooves did not stopWithout takingtoward Zhengyang Gate to leave the cityFan Xian and his group arrived at Donghua Gate
It was cohua Gate, a death-like silenceThe Qin rebel soldiers, ere blockaded into a long street by the city gate guards and Dingzhou soldiers, gripped the weapons in their hands tightly, looking nervously and hopelessly at the soldiers around them
In the center of the rebel soldiers, the faces of a few Qin falyThe two sides had been facing off in front of Donghua Gate for two hoursUnder the Crown Prince's powerful constraints, the rebel soldiers had not begun an attack on Donghua Gate or launched a counter-attack against the Dingzhou soldiersYe Zhong, who had led the Dingzhou soldiers in surrounding theood patience as he waited for the arrival of Fan Xian, who the Crown Prince had requested must be present
Ye Zhong had good patience, but the leading general of the rebel soldiers felt each second drag bySweat poured off his faceHe didn't take action lightly because a failure would be a weighty ht, not many people would surviveHowever, they didn't knohat the Crown Prince was thinkingIn a matter involved rebellion, was there a way to survive?
Crown Prince Li Chengqian, surrounded by guards, wore a particularly calm expressionHe only appeared a little sallow but not overly flusteredIt was not until he saw Fan Xian approaching frohtly zhou riders parted the crowd like a waveFan Xian rode down the center of the street aloneColanced at the Crown Prince and furrowed his brows, not sure what he should sayTurning his head, hequietly
Ye Zhong's face lit upHis eyes brightened, but he immediately felt a wave of fearHe knew his earlier decision to protect the Crown Prince and give hied to evade a crisis and was still alive, the treasonous Crown Prince should be left for his sacred judgh he was a treasonous deposed Crown Prince, he was still the Emperor's sonAs the father-in-law of the Second Prince, Ye Zhong did not want the Crown Prince to die in his hands
Fan Xian raised his eyes to look at the Crown Prince, who looked back at hihtly as if he had finally made an important decisionSlowly, in a raspy voice, he said, ”You've coave up their weapons and surrendered, becozhou arenerals were also brought to the ground with an expression of despair
The battle in Jingdou ca escorted a black carriage toward the Royal Palace
The black carriage had been summoned by the Overwatch Council at the first instantThere were two people sitting in the carriage: Fan Xian and the forqianThe two brothers sat in the di time
”There may be problems with the three conditions I prohtly lowered and he spoke with an apologetic tone”If I can't do it, don't think I lied to you”
Li Chengqian didn't want countless rebel soldiers and innocent soldiers to lose their lives because of hie, he had surrenderedHowever, he requested for Fan Xian to coree to three of his conditions before he illing to let go and be capturedLi Chengqian knew that in Jingdou, Fan Xian, who held his father's posthumous edict and had the support of the majority of the people, spoke with , who had the ar as Fan Xian illing to agree, no one in court would give these co Fan Xian's words, Li Chengqian thought that Fan Xian was going back on his wordsStaring into his eyes, he asked angrily, ”Why?”
”I can try for the lives of the common soldiers, but I still cannot proh they were just cannon fodder, this was a rebellionAlthough Qing law is not harsh, it still doesn't leave theqian didn't understand what he
Fan Xian gazed at Li Chengqian's pale face and sighed”As for those officials and generals who participated in the rebellion, I can do nothing at all”
”I know they can't live, but I hope you won't involve… They all have large fains, tens of thousands of people will die”
Li Chengqian's face was somewhat darkHe hoped that Fan Xian would be able to proainAfter all, he had personally promised in front of two ar out the fa I can control” Fan Xian's broere furrowed very tightly”Just like I said earlier, I will do s I promised you, but I cannot proe rose before Fan Xian's eyes of countless people being beheaded, countless infants being thrown to death, and countless high-ranking wives and young ladies being sent into governh he was a cold-blooded person, once he thought about the tragedy that would play out in Jingdou, he still felt a chill
Men rebelled for their oer and statusIn the end, those who suffered the tragic consequences were not just the children, distant relatives in their hoqian tre the collar of Fan Xian's shi+rt in one hand, a rare glimpse of bravery appeared on his pale and scared faceIn a low voice, he roared, ”If you didn't pro to be your prisoner?”
Fan Xian didn't struggle out of Li Chengqian's weak handsIn a low voice, he shouted back, ”Not surrender? Did you actually want to be killed in the chaos of battle?”
Li Chengqian pausedHe seeripping his collar unconsciously loosenedHe said in a tre voice, ”My Crown Prince title has already been deposed, and I aent, and the scholars all support youEven if Ping'er takes the throne, you are still the E, ould dare object?”
The expression on Fan Xian's face was apathetic”His Majesty is still alive”
Abruptly hearing this news, Li Chengqian's shoulders fell weakly against his kneesAlthough he had already guessed at this possibility when Ye Zhong first defected, it was still difficult not to be shocked upon actually hearing this news
