Chapter 94 Sigh
In the Jiangnan area far away from Kyoto, the spring scenery has already covered the willows of West Lake. The spring scenery in the Peng family manor beside the West Lake is even stronger. The green trees behind the house stretch their waists happily, greedily sucking the wetness in the air and the sunshine that warms the day after day.
However, the owner of this manor was not very happy, nor did he have the leisure to stretch his mind. He looked at the recent news reports sent by Kyoto in the court and even the lace newspapers run by the palace, but he still did not relax.
At the end, he whispered to Shi Chanli about the news coming from the Baoyuelou channel, and finally confirmed the development trajectory of the matter, just as the information said.
The eldest princess was imprisoned in the villa of Xicheng. His Royal Highness, carrying the saint's order, went to the Nanzhao Kingdom thousands of miles away to watch the ceremony.
These are the two most direct results of the incident at present, so the young owner of the manor couldn't help but sigh and shook his head repeatedly.
Shi Chanli looked at him curiously and asked, "Sir, although I don't know why Your Majesty is angry, after this incident, His Highness the eldest princess can no longer be in the court in Jiangnan. Isn't that a great thing? Why are you still so depressed?"
Fan Xian looked at him with his eyes squinted, swallowed his words after a while, waved his hand a little boredly, and said, "Let's talk about it, you should go back to Suzhou and look at Baoyue Tower."
Shi Chan left in confusion. Wang Qinian, who knew the inside story, flashed in. He stood quietly behind Fan Xian, watching the adults review all the information coming from Kyoto again, without saying a word.
Because he knew why Fan Xian was worried.
"I worked hard to do such a game, but in the end it was like this." Fan Xian said helplessly: "The risk this time was great enough, but the result... the woman survived. Why is this?"
Wang Qinian glanced at him and thought to himself... The eldest princess is the adult's mother-in-law after all, and her words were a little cold-blooded.
Of course, the only one who could lie between the eldest princess and the emperor was able to suppress the bomb that Fan Xian used countless strength to detonate. However, Fan Xian still had many confusions and doubts about the process of this matter.
"The kindness of a woman."
He said with a frown.
This sentence not only criticized the emperor for finally stopping, but also represented his suspicion in one aspect. Why did the eldest princess not even use a decent counterattack and was easily dismantled by the emperor? Even though he knew that the actions outside the palace were arranged by Dean Chen himself, with his understanding of his mother-in-law... she surrendered so quietly, which was really inconsistent with that crazy name.
"I told you that the eldest princess likes His Majesty." Fan Xian said with a flat mouth: "I just didn't expect that she would be obsessed with this level. Before His Majesty really took action, she would not take the initiative to resist... What kind of world is this?"
Wang Qinian's face beside him was very strange, and he couldn't help but be strange. As a minister of Qing Kingdom, no matter how arrogant and rebellious he was, no one dared to say such ruthless words in his own yard.
Fan Xian said it, and even said it in front of him, forcing him to hear it. It was obvious that this was not the first time that this was a topic.
Wang Qinian coughed twice sadly. He understood that his life and wealth in this life had long been closely linked to Lord Xiao Fan. Lord Xiao Fan was not worried that he would betray him, so he spoke so presumptuously in front of him.
Originally, the plan to expose the royal scandal and force His Majesty to take action was done by Fan Xian and Wang Qinian. This was a big deal, and the other members of Qinian's group did not get any news at all. As for Yan Bingyun, he was completely kept in the dark.
Fortunately, Jiangnan is far away from Kyoto, and Fan Xian and Wang Qinian set up a plan to break out after two months. Even gods and immortals probably wouldn't guess that this matter has something to do with them.
Unless Hong Zhu suddenly has the courage to commit suicide and kill friends.
"There are several places worth noting in the court newspaper." Although he was doing something unjust, Wang Qinian could not get used to talking about unjust. He pointed to several places in the court newspaper in pain, forcibly changed the topic, reminding him: "The arson case in Huichuntang, the clan fell off a horse, and the imperial physician died... There are some strange things in these three things."
"Oh?" Fan Xian looked back at him. The court newspaper did not connect these three things, and the palace would not allow anyone with any intention to see the relationship inside. The problem was that the two of them were too clear about these three places, and of course they knew the root of these things. "Don't you think the eldest princess killed someone to silence him?"
"That's just medicine. The medicine is not enough evidence at all." Wang Qinian's forehead wrinkles were very deep. "Your Highness the Princess and the Prince of the Prince are not stupid people. Why do you do these confused things when investigating in the palace?"
"This is also something I find strange. We keep these living mouths just to let Your Majesty go to trial." Fan Xian thought, "But obviously, Your Majesty didn't try, how could he conclude that matter?"
"And," he pointed to the paper and said seriously: "I didn't find it in the palace. The eldest princess should not admit his own defilement... Who did the Sanchun case?"
Fan Xian frowned. Afterwards, he reflected on the incident, it was better to die than to live in these three places. His original idea was indeed a problem in this link... And now he was thinking about who helped make this game a real death game, making His Majesty unexplainable. He could only make the final decision based on his own suspicion?
When he was still in Kyoto, he and Wang Qinian vaguely realized that a force seemed to be doing something similar to his, but they were afraid of alarming the enemy at that time, so they did not dare to investigate in detail.
"It shouldn't be someone else." Wang Qinian sighed.
Fan Xian also sighed, shook his head and said, "There is no one else except ours."
"Your Highness of the Crown Prince has gone to Nanzhao..." The study did not calm for too long, and Fan Xian said the problem that was hanging in his mind. "Based on time, it should have passed Yingzhou at this time and continued to go south. Why is Your Majesty's arrangement? The ministers in the court must still be guessing and still can't figure it out. Why does the Princess involve the Prince, but you and I must know that Your Majesty will never tolerate a son who shames the royal family and inherits the throne. Go to Nanzhao to watch the ceremony... Can Chengqian come back?"
Wang Qinian was silent and did not dare to answer this question.
Fan Xian smiled and looked at him, saying, "You and I don't know how many things you and I have done that are in the Nine Clans, so why bother to discuss it."
Wang Qinian smiled bitterly, knowing that the lord reminded himself again. He was shameless in his heart, shook his head and said, "I think there should be nothing wrong along the way. Even if His Majesty already has the intention of abolishing the crown prince, he would not choose to throw it out at this time."
"It makes sense." Fan Xian patted the table gently, "Just like my thoughts, what our Majesty wants is a wise and powerful spirit, a famous style in history. He tried every means to suppress this matter and would never be willing to leave anyone's words. This time the prince went to Nanzhao, one was to leak him out of Kyoto and slowly planned the dethronement of the crown prince, and the other was…"
He frowned. Suddenly he thought of the poisonous fog in Nanzhao. When Yan Xiaoyi led his troops to fight south seven or eight years ago, the casualties of the soldiers were basically caused by this disaster.
"The miasma invaded the body, and the prince gradually became weak..." Wang Qinian said this and suddenly woke up. His courage to speak was getting stronger and stronger.
Fan Xian smiled bitterly and continued: "If you and I really think so, your Majesty... is indeed amazing."
A complicated expression flashed in his eyes, but Wang Qinian did not notice it.
"I'm sorry, I didn't win the full results." Fan Xian sighed: "Why did you say the eldest princess didn't die?"
This is the second time he felt nakedly regretful today. Wang Qinian felt a little strange. The eldest princess had lost power. After all, the adult was the other party's son-in-law. Whether from the perspective of human relations, he should not say so.
Wang Qinian was not clear. After Fan Xian entered Kyoto, he subconsciously became very afraid of the eldest princess because he could use conspiracy to fight against people next to him. However, when dealing with a powerful and noble person who was praised by the world, it was difficult for Fan Xian to guess what kind of crazy reaction the other party would make.
This uncertainty makes Fan Xian very troubled.
Especially this Kyoto Palace Change. Fan Xian still couldn't believe in such an ending - the eldest princess was killed, why did her forces not launch a final counterattack? What about the military? What about Yan Xiaoyi's attitude? If the incident happened too quickly, the military had no time to respond... But what about Ye Liuyun?
Fan Xian knew better than anyone else that Ye Liuyun's status as a worshiper in the Junshan Association was once scared by the sword of the Broken Tower in Suzhou City. Even though Junshan Association was a loose organization, the eldest princess would definitely not be as vulnerable as it seems now.
He had previously analyzed the eldest princess' crazy love for the emperor with Wang Qinian, but that was just a saying by Fan Xian to convince himself, and he did not believe this.
However, there are some things in this world, perhaps what people don’t believe in, and the real reason.
Fan Xian sighed at the desk, sighing regretfully. After Wang Qinian left, he still couldn't stop sighing. Wang Qinian closed the door and shook his head subconsciously, thinking that although the eldest princess was not dead, no one in the court was Fan Tisi's opponent from then on. This result was already great. Why did Lord Tisi sigh?
In fact, the reason is very simple - Fan Xian is not a loyal minister, nor is he a pure minister. What he imagined was just watching the tigers and cranes fighting in Jiangnan, and each was injured.
He wanted the princess to collapse, but he would not believe the emperor. What he sighed was the emperor's method, which seemed to come faster and more powerful than he had imagined. The emperor's power was not lost at all.
Fan Xian sat alone in the study, silently analyzing what happened in Kyoto. He vaguely felt that the eldest princess might be waiting stubbornly for the emperor's thunder and anger because of her crazy feelings, and the emperor obviously had some reservations, was it family affection? Fan Xian didn't believe this.
He opened the letters in the hospital newspaper. After reading them for the second time, he pondered for a moment and began to write a reply. The letter came from his home in Kyoto. One letter from his father and one from Wan'er, mainly about Sisi and the children in her womb. He should be safe and not worry too much.
However, Wan'er's letter naturally mentioned the story of the eldest princess. Although she didn't say anything clearly, she seemed to want Fan Xian to say something in the palace.
Fan Xian sighed in distress again. He knew that his wife was a rare smart person. Of course, he knew how irreconcilable it was behind everything that was hidden, but she still wrote to let herself speak, which only proved that Wan'er still had a mother-daughter relationship with the eldest princess.
This is a natural thing. The emperor is cold-blooded and Fan Xian is cold-blooded. It does not mean that the people in this world and the people in the royal family are cold-blooded animals.
Fan Xian wrote a reply seriously, of course he wanted to express his shock and doubt to his father. He mainly expressed his replies to Wan'er, and at the same time he greeted Sisi's girl.
Then he began to write a memorial and secretly memorial to the emperor. Although he did not directly plead for the eldest princess in the memorial, he also vaguely expressed the concerns that he should have as a son. After writing it, he carefully checked it several times and confirmed that this attitude would not make the emperor think he was hypocritical nor angry. He sealed the lacquer and asked his subordinates to send it on the first-level mail route.
After doing all this, Fan Xian felt a little relieved. Although he was free in Jiangnan for the past few months, his eyes were actually fixed on Kyoto, and his mental pressure was huge.
Although things were not in line, they were basically following his ideas. He finally relaxed a little, opened the drawer in the secret room, took out the three internal warehouses that Qiye and he copied over more than a year of work and was in a daze.
Although this process flow is not the entirety of the internal warehouse, Fan Xian knew that if this thing was really spread to Northern Qi, it would really cause terrifying consequences.
His eyes narrowed, thinking that although he and Chen Pingping secretly joined hands and played with the emperor once this time, they only played with the details. As for the big situation, it might be the emperor who played with him.
"Wang Shisanlang has been idle for a long time."
