Chapter 575: 575
”Why?”
Faced with his son's shocked inquiry, Minister Fan did not continue this topicHe sht in the Palace?”
Fan Xian replied, ”The Great Prince is keeping watch with injuries, the eqian has already been shut in the Eastern PalaceThere shouldn't be a problem”
”Good” Fan Jian noddedHis eyes gradually revealed a glihed in adht daysI have to say, to be able to hold down Jingdou for the Emperor in such circumstances, you have improved beyond my expectationsYou've done very well”
Although he had received praise from his father, Fan Xian did not feel any joy in his heartSht desperately in Jingdou, but ould have thought that the Ezhou army had not defected in the end, it would have been impossible to hold the Royal Palace…”
Without waiting for him to finish, Fan Jian waved his hand and stopped him ”The Ees farIt is not souess at” The tone of these words revealed a trace of unnaturalnessHe continued to speak and sighed, ”As for the Ye family, it was truly out of everyone's expectationsWho would have thought that after years of pressure, they were the Emperor's hidden pawns?”
He looked at Fan Xian and revealed a slight cultured s the attack in the valley a year and a half ago was right, and I rong”
Fan Xian was silentAfter the attack in the valley last year, he and his father had once analyzed the proble crossbowsAfter the matter, they kneas the old Qin family's action, but they had once wondered if the EFroan to talk about the distribution of various do these 20 years, other than Ye Zhong, who had always been the Co both the Commander of the Imperial Army and Co Dian
At that time, Fan Xian suspected that pointSince the Emperor had shown such trust in the Ye family, ould he force the Ye family to join hands with the Second Prince and lean toward the Eldest Princess? However, Fan Jian had given hiht it reasonable, so he had let go of this suspicion
Unexpectedly, the truth of this suspicion, the truth behind the Emperor's silent tolerance of many suspicious and weak points, was finally revealed in the chaos in Jingdou
The Ee mazeNot only had it confused the Eldest Princess and everyone in the world, it had even thoroughly fooled Fan Jian, a trusted confidant horown up
Speaking of the attack in the valley, the sight of the white snow that day, red blood, heads in front of the Bureau of Military Affairs, as well as his arrogance, all rose involuntarily before his eyesHe couldn't help but laugh bitterlyHe thought about how childish and laughable his arrogance that day was in front of the Emperor and Eldest Princess
His heart movedHe opened his mouth to ask, ”Father, I've always had a questionWhy did Qin Ye betray the Emperor?”
This was not just his questionThis was many people's questionHowever, the battle for imperial power, for control of the world, made everyone assume that the Qin family's betrayal was like every internal conflict in the history booksIt was inevitable and right
Fan Xian had heard the Eldest Princess's words before her deathA poisonous flower blooan to pay particular attention to this questionAlthough the Qin fa family and secretly commanded the Jiaozhou Navy to massacre the island, for an elder of the h for the EhtlyBut, only as long as he remained absolutely loyal to the Emperor
What kind of creature was the Emperor? If he had ever suspected Qin Ye's loyalty, how could he allow him to stay in the position as Minister of the Bureau of Military Affairs for so many years? These years, the old Qin master had constantly said he was sick and didn't come into court, yet the position of Minister had never been made empty
He spoke about this confusion out loudFan Jian didn't think before saying coldly and directly, ”Also on the day of the attack in the valley, I had once said the empress's father's head had been chopped off by meWho knows if those heads that should have been taken off were completely done so”
Fan Xian's heart trembledHe understood what his father meantThe Qin family stood on the Eldest Princess's side in the rebellionPerhaps they were also involved in his o
”At that ti had been ency situation in the North, and Ye Zhong had gone with the backup troops to be stationed in Dingzhou to hold the fort for the Ehtly”However, at the ti old court precedent and in his position as Minister of the Bureau of Military Affairs, controlled the headquarters of douIf it was said that he participated in the rebellion in Jingdou, no one would think it was strange”
If the old Qin Master had been one of the original culprits responsible for killing Ye Qinght that ran red with blood four years later, when the edou purged, as the Qin fa, and his father joined hands to avenge his o?
Meeting Fan Xian's questioning gaze, Fan Jian slowly said, ”The problem was that there was never any evidence that clearly said the Qin faer, at most, it was a crime of tolerance”
Fan Xian furrowed his brows slightlyChen Pingping had once said this hier was probably not athis matter critically with his father, Fan Xian suddenly realized that Director Chen probably thought differently and had endless suspicions about the role the Qin family had once played
The person who could best prove Chen Pingping's thoughts about the Qin fa GeSuch a dangerous figure ished to wipe out the entire Qin faht hiWhy did he do that? Was it for when he fell out with the Qin family in the future?
A chill grew from the bottoping though, participated in the killing of Ye Qing of this, a streak of coldness began to surge out of the depths of his body, seeping out of countless pores in his body,the entire study as cold as winter
He had once guessed countless times and come close to the truth, but he didn't dare askHe didn't even dare ask Chen PingpingFurther had distanced hiive him any chance to open his mouth
There had always been a knot in Fan Xian's heartHe had always quietly turned his attention toward Northern Qi, feeling a natural fear toward the Qing Kingdole and reveal the inky truth insideThus, he fell silentShtly at his father, he said, ”If the Qin family actually participated in the matter, it could be said that they had received their retribution today”
He worried that this father would follow this line of thought and think of the things he secretly feared earlierHe rushed to open histo the capital in the next few daysEarlier, the court had been preparing his funeralto turn around so quickly”
Fan Xian ssWhat needs is there for you to be concerned?”
Fan Xian shrugged and didn't say anything limmer of confusion on his faceThe ate
Presudou who had survived were silent in their residencesNo one had thought the E Mountain aliveIn their shock, they also thought of the Ye family's defeated move, as well as a number of waterproof plans in the rebellionAll of the officials' respect and fear of the Emperor had been raised to a level that had never been reached before
Fan Xian looked at his silent father and rose to say a few more wordsHe then turned and left
Leaving the study, he walked toward the back garden bordering the street to see Wan'erAlong the way, the evening breeze was as cold as water as it washed over his faceUnexpectedly, a wave of joy ca the injury in his body, and thought blankly about Chen Pingping's letting go of the attack in the valleyBecause of this severance, it was no wonder that the old cripple was theclearly, yet he carefully hid the truth fros aloneHe even used this severance to maintain his own peace after the event
Fan Xian had been learning froNow, he could only be silentHis father was going to quit his post and return houesses sink hidou and be unable to extricate himself? For the sake of each other's safety, both had to severOnly this was truly love, like how Chen Pingping loved him
Fan Xian very
At this dou happilyOccasionally, he gave an order to have the Overwatch Council cooperate with the Edou before the Eht
However, soht was already darkFan Xian still hadn't had the time to see his wifeSo Gong Dian at the door, he sucked in a deep breath and pushed down the irritation in his heartBowing, he said, ”Sir Gong”
Earlier, he and his father had been discussing this man in the studyThey knew that he was one of the people the Emperor trusted the most, so he spoke measuredly
In Gong Dian's opinion, Sir Fan junior was the person closest to the Ehly of himself, he bowed as a person of lower status and said in a heavy voice, ”There is a matter I must trouble you with”
Fan Xian was one of the Dukes and could accept such a bowFurthermore, in the days before the EentHowever, hearing the word ”trouble,” he knew that it would be a big troubleHis head couldn't help but start hurting
Too douPlus, Fan Xian was not in a very good radually returning within the cityHe had to rest and thinkHe wasn't happy about being disturbed
Fan Xian forcefully suppressed the irritation in his heartLooking at him, he said as evenly as possible, ”What is the matter?”
Fan Xian forcefully suppressed the irritation in his heartLooking at him, he said as evenly as possible, ”What is the matter?”
Gong Dian looked at him and seemed to hesitate and feel aardEven when he had chopped toward thetens of thousands of rebel soldiers during the day, he had not looked to be in such a difficult situation
Fan Xian also didn't say anything and only looked at hi Dian sed and said, ”Please, will you co mistress…”
Hearing these words, Fan Xian i the day, he had been busy killing and rescuing people and had coht was dark, people were quiet, and the sht of afollowed the Ees
”The Commander has left the capital in pursuit and ordereduard by Zhengyang Gate for a long tiht, he idou, probably only Fan Xian had the right to handle the matters of the royal fazhou's face and had straightforwardly spoken of the problem
Fan Xian continued to look quietly at Gong Dian and allowed hi in his eyes, but itDian feel an involuntary wave of unease and shame
Fan Xian took a deep breath and didn't say anythingOf all the people still alive in this matter, it was probably the worse for Wan'er and her best friend Ye Ling'erHis wife hurt over the death of her er would probably not reduce
When Ye Ling'er had married the Second Prince, it could truly be considered willing and voluntaryNo one had guessed that this e was just one step in the plan between the E'er couldn't even be considered a pawnShe had only paid out her e chip in the Ye fas had come to a head, only noould she abruptly realize that her father had been trying to defeat her husband
Of course, her husband was using her to control the Dingzhou army
Thinking of this, Fan Xian involuntarily thought of the Eldest Princess's last words before she diedAll the hteousness such as reputation, power, and the so-called unified worldThey really weren't anythingPerhaps this included hiHe developed countless feelings of disgust toward Ye Zhong, who had sold his daughter
Gong Dian seeHis expression was very unnatural
Fan Xian shook his head and said, ”The Second Prince is also shut up in the manor?”
