Chapter 739 Noon 2 (1/2)

The Qing Kingdo this period of time There was a new little prince in the Palace, and it was a matter for celebration As for how exactly Consort Mei died, no one dared discuss it The midwife responsible for the birth in that palace hall acco co court had soldiers in the North The state of the country was very tense, and the day of unification was approaching Who would have such daring to say those forbidden words unless they were not afraid of being reported by the internal court eunuchs and Ascetic Monks that hid in the darkness?

In just a few days, the dou returned to a clear and calm place in the depth of autu on The winter snoere ido north and were drawing near the Nanjing defensive line the Northern Qi people had been preparing for 20 years It was unfortunate that Shang Shanhu, who had been at the city in the Song Kingdom the entire ti ar back his soldiers with unusual coldness after receiving the Northern Qi E army worried about the consequences

shi+ Fei still went north Since the battle affairs were tense, Jingdou felt rather solele-handedly subdued the Northern Camp, was sent by the E Zhikun and be responsible for the Northern expedition A faeneral was like a beautiful woan his journey, his heart was also filled with noble aspirations

Once shi+ Fei was gone, the position of Coain It drew the countless burning gazes of young ures in the prime of their life The Euished all of their extravagant hopes

Ye Wan formally left the role of advisor in the Bureau of Military Affairs Other than his position as a martial tutor, he also took on the role as the Co, no one expressed any opposition, not even a glimmer of objection, because Ye Wan's achievedom had been solidly witnessed by the officials and the people No one could suppress his rise

Decades ago, Ye Wan's father, Ye Zhong, had also taken the position of the Coe The wheel of fortune turned Now, it had reached the son he did not like In the eyes of outsiders, this was nothingmen and the pillar of a ht spilled across Ye Wan's white, light arently squeezed his horse as he walked slowly outside Jingdou's Zhengyang Gate His eyes were slightly narrowed and swept endlessly across the cole searching for its prey in a sea of grass

This was just an unconscious and true reflection of his inner desire He did not hope that he would be able to meet Sir Fan junior here He just hoped to be able to see the figure of legends Although the Emperor had strictly ordered that he was to first retreat three steps if he saw Fan Xian, how could Ye Wan be satisfied?

In the clear and expansive autuht turned into countless streaks of either straight or warped rays of light Ye Wan's eyes narrowed further In his slightly dark coe, appeared by the corners of his eyes In his ht of his conversation with the Emperor in front of Taiji Palace His mood was unusually complicated

Why did they choose autumn to carry out the Northern expedition? Were they not worried about the imminent and continuous coldness of winter? This was a question the Northern Qi Emperor and officials did not understand and also the worry of Qing subjects Once the Emperor's edict went out, the entire world leapt into the dance as warhorses stepped onto the path to invade the North No one asked h they knew the ti, who co eable about battle affairs, chose to admonish the Emperor

”Tens of thousands ofonto the path of no return It is just to force him to show hihtly It was as if he wanted to escape the sun that was not burning fiercely A slightly tart smile rose to the corners of his mouth He didn't understand why the Emperor placed such importance on Fan Xian or why he had to lure hi , he didn't know that the person he wanted to capture, the person that the Qing Emperor was h the city gate and returned to Jingdou However, the gate that the two people had gone through was not Zhengyang Gate

Under the noonday sun, the western city gate was very quiet Adou, there were two figures that did not draw any attention One person wore nor while the other wore a straw hat

Fan Xian, who had disguised hilance at Wu Zhu by his side as he stepped into Jingdou The wide-brimmed straw hat completely hid the strip of black cloth on Wu Zhu's face within the shadows No one would be able to spot anything strange

Many years ago, Ye Qingdoh the Jingdou city gate guarded by Ye Zhong, beat Ye Zhong into a pulp, and then began to aid a reat ht an indifferent Wu Zhu silently back to the Qing Kingdouarded by Ye Wan Like two spirits, theyto end thatwith this, it seemed like a beautiful cycle

…

…

When Fan Xian and Wu Zhu returned to Jingdou, the war in the North was still continuing, but it had been soh he was presently a traitor to the Qing Kingdom and had been stripped off all his posts and power, he still had his oerful intelligence network In an inn in Jingdou, Fan Xian closed his eyes and thought about the reason for Consort Mei's death, analyzed his chances of success, and felt hisdays, Fan Xian disguised hidou and traveled between the various h the streets, alleys, and tea houses He didn't go look for anyone who knew him because he didn't want to be pursued by tens of thousands of people yelling for his death He was just carefully searching for sohty chest When the assassination on that snowy day failed and he was entrapped by the Qing army on the square in front of the Palace, he heard the chest ring out He also knew the Emperor had almost died to that assault rifle

If he could recover the chest, perhaps what came next would be much simpler But, who had the chest? This question should have been asked of Wu Zhu for the simplest and clearest answer Presently, Wu Zhu was like a white and indifferent piece of paper He didn't re He had just unconsciously followed Fan Xian away froh, travel, and experience the world

During those few days, for the sake of his fareement between him and the Emperor, Fan Xian did not return to Fandeeply Who would have Uncle Wu Zhu's greatest trust, other than hihts sank into inconsistencies and did not turn toward that wo appeared irresolute and completely without direction He wished he could let out a yell on the streets of Jingdou in the depths of autu court In the seean to seep with an air of solemnity, the foremost mission was to survive and hide any trace of himself He didn't even make contact with the old officials of the Overwatch Council, so this kind of searching was very tiring

The present Jingdou was not like the Jingdou of a year ago The Overwatch Council had beco in the cold and bitter rain If not for the fact that the Eone coested to the Emperor to simply disband the Overwatch Council coht that with three treasures in his arers he met in his second life, he had never truly lost his confidence Even when faced with Ye Liuyun's sword and the Eer, he still felt that he was the most ruthless person in the world

His three treasures were his poisonous crossbow, poisonous dagger, and Uncle Wu Zhu But, Uncle Wu Zhu had becoone What could he do?

…

…

The Fan 's 's manor, the Overwatch Council on Tianhe Avenue, the yamen of the First Bureau by the Supreme Court, the small courtyard in the south of the city, were all places that had court spies watching it There were a number of ti Ascetic Monks It was very dangerous

Since he didn't understand where the chest could be, there was no need to think about it This was how ruthless Fan Xian had beco the true condition of the Emperor's health and the state of his ence reports in his hand, he did not particularly trust them because the E, trickery, and luring others into a sense of safety Dong Mountain was an example There were many other examples as well Fan Xian didn't want to ive hi of which, it was strange The Emperor and Fan Xian could not cos for each other Once they thought of the other, their e behind the word ”kill”

There was no need to tell others, and no need to tell the sun andthe other seemed to have become a kind of emotional support as they lived in this world It had to be said, this was a rather tragicto obtain thein the Royal Palace, Fan Xian thought for a long time in the inn and chose the Yewas the Head of the Bureau of Military Affairs, and Ye Wan was the Codou Garrison The Emperor trusted them absolutely, so he would not send additional spies to watch them
