After the Great Prince participated in the banquet, he did not hurry to rest Instead, he waved gently at Fan Xian The two of them slipped into a silent study
The Great Prince was silent for a lanced at it Seeing the style of the letter, he prepared to kneel and receive the Emperor's secret edict Unexpectedly, he was stopped by the Great Prince
”There's only the two of us There is no need for your knees to suffer” The Great Prince gently shook his head
Fan Xian s the Emperor's secret edict from his hands, he opened the seal and read it carefully He sank into thought and did not speak for a long time
”I'm to return to the capital You're here to take my place for three months” In the letter, the Emperor's tone arm There was an affection for Fan Xian that he could not hide Fan Xian felt relaxed It was reflected in his tone when he spoke to the Great Prince ”This arrangement is viable The problem is that when you return to the capital, I'll have to coain Are the two of us perate Dongyi with as little disturbance as possible, and to use as little national wealth and military power as possible, the Great Prince and Fan Xian, two sons of the Eyi, were, without question, the best choices
Although Sigu Jian's will during the opening cere a Dongyi citizen and targeted the Emperor's heart, the Emperor was a wise man How could he not understand this ploy? He ith the flow and changed his initial plan He sent the Great Prince to lead the Qing arardless of whether it was the Great Prince or Fan Xian, they were both half Dongyi When it cayi people, this was the best weapon Every tiht about the fact that the Qing noble riding above theyi person, they would presumably feel much better about it
In particular, the Great Prince was a proper prince His mother's identity was known to the world With hiyi, it also represented the intertwined bloodline between the Qing Kingdo of blood was the best weapon
The Emperor saw very far and deep But, the Emperor would not allow both the Great Prince and Fan Xian to linger for a long tirown princes at his side He needed to them to help him with state affairs and military dou As neither prince was much like the Li family, the Emperor had a faint worry
Fan Xian understood these worries well and was not surprised by the Emperor's instructions in the secret edict for him and the Great Prince to rotate places He was just concerned about the future
”There always needs to be soyi” He looked at the Great Prince and asked, ”What is the Emperor's plan? Will it be you or me?”
”I'm not sure” A faint worry appeared between the Great Prince's brows He was not a coh he felt incomparably happy and stunned that Fan Xian was able to convince Sigu Jian without a drop of blood, subdue the Sword Hut, and s the lands and people of Dongyi into the Qing Kingdom, he was more worried about whether this process could s Iron Riders had effectively intiyi people, the behavior of the Sword Hut disciples put the Great Prince on guard
He glanced deeply at Fan Xian and said, ”Concerning the h the Emperor does not say so explicitly, it is clear that he is not happy about it”
”At that time, I had no choice I could either take over the Sword Hut or start again frohed coldly ”Do you think I want to be theis clear You have to at least go back and debrief…” The Great Prince furrowed his brows slightly and sighed ”I a over froyi for a long time”
Fan Xian sank into silence and knew that the Great Prince was speaking from his heart The Great Prince had always shown care toward Dongyi After all, Lady Ning had exhorted to him for many years He also now held military authority The Eyi than hand it over to the Great Prince
Splitting territory and crowning kings was not a difficult matter What was difficult was how the land should be split and who should be king
”The E me back I'll stay for a while and help you tidy up the situation,” Fan Xian said ”Once the situation is stable, I'll go back to the capital”
The Great Prince nodded ”The Overwatch Council still needs you to run it, presudou After you return to Jingdou, have a poke around and see what plans there are for Dongyi”
”You're worried the Eyi people into an uprising?” Fan Xian looked at his here Don't worry too yi person”
His tone became serious ”Even if you are worried, you have to bury it deep and not let others see it”
The Great Prince knew that his younger brother was truly looking out for hi
”Is Chen Pingping getting ready to leave?” Fan Xian took a sip of cold tea, feeling his lanced at hi, so he was very aware of as happening at Chen Garden
”He is already getting ready He went into the Palace a few days ago to take his leave” The Great Prince did not know that the Director Chen that he saw as an uncle had previously developed treasonous thoughts against his father, so he did not take the etting old and should retire Thinking about the fact that he didn't knohen he would see Director Chen again after leaving Jingdou, the Great Prince actually felt slightly dazed
Fan Xian was silent After calculating for a long time, he put aside that yi, are they actually all from the Western Expedition Army? Can you control them coenerals are all people I'm unfamiliar with,” the Great Prince said coldly as he narrowed his eyes slightly
