Chapter 746 Afterward (1/2)
A spring dayuards behind his Occasionally, he raised a hand to brush aside thebranches in front of his face with a slight smile, but there was no affectation of carefreeness On the contrary, he emanated a sense of courteousness and indescribable confidence
Travel barges floated by on the lake, but there were no beautiful wo their red sleeves A housekeeper-like person beside this young h voice, ”Everyone says there are many beautiful wo htly, probably feeling that the housekeeper's words were not in keeping with his station Aman on another horse said coldly, ”Baoyue Brothel is open all under heaven Presently, there is so every day on West Lake, so who still dares to conduct business on the lake?”
These words were strange and carried a glidoh Jingdou's Overwatch Council had been changed and even the position of Director had been reovernance had reached a strictness that had never been seen before Relying on the abundance of the national treasury, and learning from a certain person, he h it couldn't completely put an end to tyranny in small towns, surely no one dared to take over the entire West Lake in such a distinguished and flourishi+ng place as Hangzhou?
The young htly and looked at the commoners in the distance who avoided hi and expressions and focused his attention elsewhere
Many years ago, the Qing Emperor wanted to invade North Unexpectedly, as a touch away froe happened within the Royal Palace in Jingdou The Qing Kingdom traitor, Fan Xian, entered the Palace to assassinate the Emperor, who, unluckily, fell victiot out, the world was shocked and the Qing Kingdo Iron Riders who had pushed their attack to the foot of Nanjing had no choice but to disperse the troops and retreat, giving up, for nothing, the wonderful meal they had already sed Later, they still took over a large piece of Northern Qi territory
The Qing invasion of the North was thus delayed After the new Emperor tidied up the imperial court, nurtured his trusted aids, andpeople invest their confidence into hiht to the table It seemed that it would be delayed forever
Northern Qi had not let down its guard because of the instability in the South Under the Northern Qi Eovernance, Northern Qi thrived and flourished After a th If this staledom invaded the North, it would probably be particularly difficult
As for the details of the assassination that shocked the entire world, all those who knew of the details, including the Qing court, kept it a tight secret They only nailed Fan Xian to the pillar of humiliation as quickly as possible
As for this, no one questioned it After all, the new Eh everyone in the world knew that His Majesty had brotherly affection with Fan Xian, and a friendshi+p of student and teacher, he could not absolve Fan Xian of the crie hy the Qing court did not connect this shocking event with Northern Qi or Dongyi and use the anger of the nation to attack, straightforwardly carrying out the Northern invasion to the end On the contrary, purposely or not, the Qing court reyi froe horse was the present day Enized the dom at the moment, the deputy head of the Bureau of Military Affairs, Ye Wan
If the Northern Qi people caught wind of this infor Ezhou, far away froe nu Edoth would at least be reduced by half
The present Edom was the Third Prince of the previous E Since he dared to leave Jingdou far behind to cozhou, he did not worry about the issue of safety First, Ye Wan at his side was one of the few superior ninth-level warriors in the world Second, there were countless internal court aces hidden all around hi did not believe that there was anyone who could har the sixth year of the Qing calendar, I stayed in Jiangnan for an entire year” Li Chengping sat on the large horse His eyes turned toward the gently gleaht and naturally softened ”Although I stayed longer in the Hua Garden in Suzhou, I also lived for a while in theof it now, those were the most relaxed days of my life”
”Your Majesty shoulders the burden of peace under heaven and the hopes of millions of people, naturally, you cannot be as relaxed as in your youth” Ye Wan spoke evenly At this time, the two people were on the ed banks of West Lake and surrounded only by people from the Palace Pedestrians kept their distance, so there weren't any taboos in the talk between ruler and official
Li Chengping heard Ye Wan's old-fashi+oned and faintly ad any feeling of irritation He respected Ye Wan's loyalty toward hih, even until today, Li Chengping only acknowledged that person he had not seen in a long tiroup of people continued slowly along the beautifulbanks of West Lake, heading toward the one on for ant courtyard with gray walls and black eaves Wind rustled through the bamboo
”It's been eddismounted the horse with a cal been opened in preparation to welco in front of the wide-open and still slightly fa Emperor tidied his clothes and stepped forward
The manor by West Lake faced the water with its back toward the mountain It was secluded in the back but did not feel shadowed or dah the woods and entered this courtyard, entle
”Teacher, I owe everything these years to your secret support…”
”Teacher, there is so I don't understand…”
”Teacher…”
The person the Qing E, called teacher was silent for a very long ti out quietly, ”Since Your Majesty is here, then stay and rest in West Lake for a while Jiangnan's scenery is good, and the clidou's blazing heat and chilly winters”
Li Chengping's voice was also silent for a very long time before he slowly said, with a hint of faint resentdom”
”Your Majesty, I a tiht?”
”Teacher, you have to give the court an explanation for the palace treasury matter Presently, the Overwatch Council has already discovered the whereabouts of that village As the E deaf and er about thishis to”
At this point, the conversation reached a stalelassFan Xian sat beneath theat a clean table andhis eyes slightly, he looked at the spray of peach blossoms in the courtyard
Many years had passed Fan Xian had disappeared from the world for many years He had even disappeared from the discussions in tea shops and alleys There was no need to suspect that, perhaps,court's immortal poet, powerful official, and, finally, traitor His appearance did not change n of age between his brows He was just as he alas, except his te glanced at him and slowly raised the teacup in his hand to take a shallow sip He did not purposely hide the worry between his brows Ye Wan, as standing at the Emperor's side, narrowed his eyes as he looked at the person who looked like a rich farether It had been h he secretly knew that this person was living comfortably somewhere in the world, Ye Wan still could not accept this truth
How could a traitor who assassinated the previous Edom territory? This absurd truth er in his heart However, he knew that this was not the ti slowly in a cold voice, ”Sir Fan junior, in front of the Emperor, it is best to keep strictly to your place as a subject”
Fan Xian turned his head and s He knehat Ye Wan's personality was like He also knew his present status in the court, as well as why Ye Wan felt such deep enmity toward him His place as a subject? If he truly considered his would not have happened in the palace back then
It was not just Ye Wan who had an implacable hatred for Fan Xian In reality,court felt a powerful hatred toward the already disappeared Sir Fan junior In order to placate this hatred, during these few years, the court had banished the Fan clan into the dust and confiscated all of their property It wasn't absorbed into the national treasury Instead, it was handed to King Jing's e
Because the Emperor's mother was born of Duke Liu's manor, the Duke's Alley was not implicated by Fan Xian and dou Their fa's manor This would be able to shut up most of the officials, but it couldn't truly hurt Fan Xian
Fan Xian s and said, ”It's been h state affairs are busy, stay for a few nored Ye Wan This was a kind of self-control, as well as a kind of coldness and confidence
Li Chengping s ti treasures”
Fan Xian also s calligraphy with Sisi right now Your Majesty can go ahead I'll coed I've very sleepy every day and have just gotten up It's truly neglectful of eneral of the Qing Kingdouests Fan Xian did not personally acco and Ye Wan er because their conversation in the study earlier had made Fan Xian's attitude completely clear
The housekeeper of the Fan manor on West Lake humbly led the way in front This housekeeper's appearance was delicate and lance However, there were some acne scars left on his face, which was a pity, but not many people noticed this once his face was filled with a war about the quiet and beautiful stone path in thelooked at the back of the housekeeper in front and suddenly furrowed his brows, feeling that this back looked rather familiar In particular, the man's earlier reply was deeply i Eping furrowed his brows slightly and called probingly
”Yes, Your Majesty” The housekeeper of the Fan reat respect
Li Chengping looked at hi tidou, he only asked ht that you would be able to stay at his side this entire tied in the Emperor's heart However, in the FanZhu to led them to a side courtyard
--------------------------------Boundary Line For the Final Chapter---------------------------------
The Qing E in plain clothes, did not stay for long on the banks of West Lake He only stayed for three days After two ping and Ye Wan left the Fan manor on West Lake and headed in the direction of Suzhou
Of the entire Qing court, only a few at the very highest level knew that Fan Xian lived in secret by West Lake Naturally, Xue Qing, still the Governor of Jiangnan Road, knew of this After Li Chengping took the throne, he overnors of the seven Roads, but he didn't touch Jiangnan Road First, it was because Jiangnan was truly one of the do so to control Fan Xian, as living there in secret
A's expression was cal ti Zhu fro Zhu was the head eunuch that teacher hated the ive hi”
Li Chengping's brows furrowed slightly He changed fro Fan Xian teacher to a direct reference Presu Zhu's identity liht that he had hidden so o in and out of the palace without a proble in the palace could be kept from him Even father eventually fell to his hands”
Ye Wan remained silent to the side He wished the Emperor would order the court to carry out the most absolute attack on the Fan faction hidden in the darkness However, the changes these years made Ye Wan clearly sense the influence Sir Fan junior, who had no Kingdom and the world In the present situation, it was i on the large horse suddenly let out a sigh and said, ”I knohat you want to say, there is no need to say it I have learned from him ever since my youth I knohat kind of person my teacher is Mother will also not allowturned his head to glance at Ye Wan and thought to himself that he was probably the loyal officialhi only asked that he didn't create any h
Was there so on the throne for a long tiratefulness, and worshi+p that he felt in his childhood toward Fan Xian This kind of eaze noas also very coh the trees by the side of the road to the beautiful spring scenery of the southeast Slowly, he said, ”Without teacher, it would be impossible for me to sit on this throne”
Other than the civil officials in court who still felt a powerful killing intent toward Fan Xian's naer toward Fan Xian On the objects coe roo” character carved into it, the ”Hang” of Hangzhou Conference
…
…
Life by West Lake was very comfortable Fan Xian had already had many years of peaceful life However, the peace of this year's spring had been disturbed by the Emperor's sudden visit His heart had also seemed to have co Li Chengping left, he ignored the fresh dew and began to wander through the garden
His son and daughter had grown up and had long begun their learning Presently, they orking hard in practicing their calligraphy every day with Sisi Back in Danzhou, Sisi had helped Fan Xian copy a great deal of the ”Story of the Stone” Her regular script was very beautiful Fan Xian was not worried, just a bit tender-hearted that the children had to rise so early
Lin Wan'er approached fro, ”Careful, you'll catch a cold”
”How late did you play lanced at hervoice Sisi was responsible for the children's studies Other than occasionally looking at Hangzhou Conference's accounts, Lin Wan'er had nothing else to do, so she had invested her li and never seemed to tire of it
”The skill level in this faood We just played a few rounds before stopping” Lin Wan'er replied with a s woman in her 20s, but her speech and se eyes were still innocent
”Wait until ets home Watch as he deals with you,” Fan Xian said with a s of Sizhe, Fish Guts cae fro with you I orried that this ent, so I didn't disturb you”
Fish Guts was the black-clothed Tiger Guard who had followed the retired Minister of Revenue, Fan Jian, for many years He was thethese words, Fan Xian's brows furrowed He asked, ”Is so major He just wants us to return to Danzhou in a while Grand and will probably not have tizhou first,” Lin Wan'er quietly said
”Then let's go back Sizhe, that kid…” For sohed and said to Wan'er with a sht that once the Third Prince was the Eht even be another Minister of Revenue in the future and be able to help the Third Prince However, he is ain”
”Don't worry about those things Fish Guts also brought a question froe be dealt with?”
”Slowly, according to the plan” Fan Xian's sradually faded Calmly and strictly, he said, ”Since the court already knows, then why bother hiding too much? The Third Prince still speaks as he did before, still as endlessly and dishonestly He is clearly very worried but refuses to speak explicitly Since this is the case, I cannot say tooof the Emperor, your attitude toward him these two days has been very problematic Did you not notice Ye Wan's face?” Lin Wan'er asked with a sh the relationshi+p between you two is not that of normal ruler and subject, he is, after all, the Emperor You have to at least hed out loud and stroked Wan'er's head After a moment of silence, he seriously said, ”I've spent half et to the point where I kneel to no one I cannot ardless of whether it was the Edom, Fan Xian did not have to kneel in front of either of them On the contrary, if he did kneel, these two Emperors would probably becorown He should have some of his own ideas” The husband and alked into the depths of the ba white stone in the distance As they walked, Fan Xian continued to speak The corners of his lips rose involuntarily into a complicated smile ”Last year, Lao Da was chased out of the palace by hi able to keep his life is already the Third Prince givinghas also been proh the bamboo forest and stood in front of the while built hite rocks ”This is not acceptable”
Although his words were sith that did not suffer questioning Lin Wan'er stared in a daze at his profile, but she did not think her husband's words, which interfered in court politics, were unbelievable In the years following the Qing Emperor's death, the forces related to Fan Xian had all been razed and dispersed by the court Those ere truly aware of the situation knew that once Fan Xian wanted to, he still could call upon a powerful force
”Although Lao wang has backed out, Zi Yue is still working in the capital I'll give this matter to him to handle”
”Haven't you alanted to not be involved in the Jingdou court? Why are doing this, this ti the E This is the Eer ht to interfere in it If he tries to testat his wife ”I know the Third Prince better than you, none of the Li sons are all that si this, he turned his head to look quietly at the protrusion 's tomb It had been set by hireenEe Fan Xian Even Li Chengping could not Fan Xian's strength was too wide, too dispersed, and spread out under heaven Even the allEmperor had no choice but to be bound by Fan Xian and have a battle between the of today
