Celebrating more than two years of peace in the world

Chapter 85
Picking up the letter paper and shaking the dust, Fan Xian opened the envelope.

The letter was not a letter written by Concubine Yigui to Fan Xian when she had nothing to do, but a letter from someone else.

After reading the letter, Fan Xian understood some of the things.

Concubine Yigui is a person in the deep palace. She does not have nothing to do every day. Although there is no competition for favor in the harem, there are still factional disputes. The harem has been clearly included in the positive In the factional struggle, it was only the Queen Mother who was in charge, and no one dared to show it too clearly.

The person under the empress dowager is of course the eldest princess Li Yunrui. She relies on her unique advantage of wealth and power in the inner treasury, coaxing everyone in the harem to be happy, and she uses both soft and hard methods to make all these people count under coercion. to himself.

Concubine Yigui is a sensible person, she knows who can offend and who can't, now it is obvious that the eldest princess has lost her power, and no one is in the palace anymore, she can't control the capital now, she can only be in Xinyang In the deep palace, it's just to study some small movements every day to relieve boredom.

But what about Fan Xian?The popular Overwatch Council Commissioner!The person holding Shangfang's sword in his hand is the person who can behead third-rank ministers and below at will, and is the number one God of Wealth of the Qing Kingdom who is about to take over the inner treasury!He is even more likely to succeed the Overwatch Council's No. [-] Secret Detective of the Qing Dynasty!

Although the third prince is still young, it does not mean that he has lost the qualification to inherit the throne. Concubine Yigui has not forgotten this, so it is not a bad thing to be able to climb up to Fan Xian now. After mixing with Fan Xian, this powerful official who is on an equal footing with the prime minister may really be able to influence the future of Qing Kingdom!

So she would rather offend the eldest princess Li Yunrui than Fan Xian.

The things Fan Xian got in his hands this time were no longer simple things. This time, the letter in his hands was the autographed letter from the eldest princess Li Yunrui, who colluded with everyone in the harem!These letters are very precious. It seems that Concubine Yigui has already prepared for it. She must have spent a lot of time collecting these letters in front of her, otherwise there would not be so many things.

Here are a total of letters talking to seven people from the harem, not only Concubine Yigui, but also Ning Cairen, Concubine Shu and others, and there are as many as five letters from Concubine Shu, which made Fan Xian very excited. She was so shocked that even a person as cautious as Concubine Shu would be knocked out of the way by Concubine Yigui.It seems that Concubine Yigui's ambition is not small.

Fan Xian heaved a sigh of relief, and sat on the chair with a limp body.

Both Wang Qinian and Gundam just looked at Fan Xian silently, because they didn't know what huge thing Fan Xian got, and this thing could play such an important role, they didn't understand it, so they didn't understand the danger in it.

But Lin Wan'er seemed to be able to guess something, she looked at Fan Xian quietly, her heart was quite complicated, she thought about it, walked over quietly, and stayed by Fan Xian's side——

Fan Xian didn't make this matter public, so not many people knew about it. Steward Zhou disembarked for the first time in the past few years, and was assassinated in Danzhou City on an inexplicable rainy night. The body was floating in the water at the port, and was found by fishermen who went out to sea three days later. The body was already swollen, but the Overwatch Council recognized the man as Steward Zhou of the Fan Mansion in Danzhou City at a glance.

The people from the Overwatch Council quietly disappeared into the crowd of onlookers, and brought the news to Fan Xian.

This was not done by Fan Xian, but it was so clean and neat. Of course, Fan Xian knew that it was an act in the palace. He didn't know whether this act was approved by His Majesty the Emperor. Originally, he knew that Steward Zhou could not die. But if Steward Zhou died, many problems would arise.

Butler Zhou's death illustrates a very important issue, that is, the secrets in him have been hollowed out. Now that the secrets have been hollowed out, the eldest princess Li Yunrui will definitely not let the news go, and she will start sending people to continue to investigate. It just so happened that Fan Xian was in Danzhou City. If the eldest princess was not stupid, she would definitely be able to think of this question.

After hearing the news, Fan Xian didn't have much reaction. He was still at home, accompanying Lin Wan'er peacefully. After all, they were going to be separated soon. Fan Xian must be very reluctant to part with Lin Wan'er, and this A trip to the Northern Qi Dynasty can be described as difficult and dangerous. The road ahead does not know what it will be like. Fan Xian does not know how long it will be delayed when he passes through various state capitals. Moreover, he now thinks that Emperor Qing is repeating his old tricks. He must be specially asked to shovel shit along the way, otherwise, who can't go to Beiqi to see Zhuang Mohan?

It didn't take long to think about it, and Fan Xian didn't arrange anything superfluous in the past few days. He just arranged some things to prepare for when he was about to leave, and handed it over to Deng Ziyue and Qu Han. Things are still much more reliable than Wang Qinian and Gao Da.

"This time, will we go for a long time?" Lin Wan'er leaned against Fan Xian's arms and asked in a low voice.

Fan Xian sighed. He actually didn't want to leave, but there was no other way. However, Fan Xian was not someone who would pour out the bitterness in his heart to others. He immediately smiled, and said to Lin Wan'er, "This time it won't be as difficult as It's been a long time since the last time, so I can come back earlier to be with my Wan'er."

Lin Wan'er smiled shyly, and beat Fan Xian, "Nothing is allowed this time, I know about you and your mother, but I won't ask, and you don't have to worry about anything about me, including my brothers, and Uncle, don't consider my feelings when you do anything in the future, okay?"

Hearing this, Fan Xian was shocked immediately. Looking at Lin Wan'er, his eyes were a little wrinkled, obviously not understanding why Lin Wan'er would say such a sentence suddenly.

But then Lin Wan'er explained, "I have read a lot of literature and ancient books, and there are many stories in them. There are some examples similar to ours, such as the daughter of an important minister in the palace and the minister. I don't know who I am, so arrogant and conceited, not to mention harming my husband's official career, and ruining the prestige of the whole family. Of course, I can't escape death in the end. I don't want to be such a person, besides, I Know whose family I am, and who I am."

"Wan'er." Fan Xian looked at Lin Wan'er in shock, but couldn't speak in a daze.

When we bid farewell to Lin Wan'er, it was already the third day since Fan Jian and Liu Ruyu left. Fan Xian's irritability was like this. He was obviously from the same family, but he just returned from one Fan residence to another. But they couldn’t go together, because the reception specifications and courtesy were different, so they couldn’t enter the capital city at the same time, and the two of them both went for the courtesy under the emperor, and they had to enter the capital through the main entrance, that is, the south gate. The city must be accepted by the Ministry of Rites, so they cannot enter the city on the same day, they can only stagger the time and return to the capital city in two groups.

Fortunately, there were guards protecting Lin Wan'er, so Fan Xian didn't have so many worries, but even so, Fan Xian still sent six guards along the way to escort Lin Wan'er back to Beijing.

When it was time to part, the scene where the two cherished each other was still very uncomfortable. Fan Xian's nose was a little sore, but after Wan'er left, Fan Xian was immediately called into the room by Mrs. Fan.

Fan Xian walked into the room respectfully, saluted his grandma, and then said, "Grandma, you are looking for me."

"This Wan'er is leaving too, are you leaving soon?" The old lady's tone was very calm, she looked at Fan Xian, although there was some reluctance in her eyes, but more worry.

Fan Xian nodded, "Grandma, after I return from my mission to Northern Qi this time, I will take you back to live with us in the capital city."

"Picking me up... Going back to the capital city is not an important matter. Grandma is worried about you, grandson. This time, going to the Northern Qi Dynasty is a long way away. Will there be any danger?" Mrs. Fan looked at Fan Xian and said softly. asked.

Fan Xian is a person who can't deceive people. He looked at Mrs. Fan and sighed, "It's not very dangerous. I think it can be resolved, although there may be various things I don't know on the way. However, with my equipment and my ability to deal with the problem, I don't think anything will happen. Besides, I basically know the tricks those people use to treat me, and I also know who will attack me, so I've already prepared myself, grandma doesn't need to worry."

"My grandson has really grown up..." Mrs. Fan looked at Fan Xian. At this moment, the handsome face of the young Fan Xian gave Mrs. Fan a great sense of security. She looked at Fan Xian with a smile, " This is much more reassuring than telling grandma that it’s okay, don’t worry, or that there will be no problems along the way.”

Fan Xian finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he looked at Mrs. Fan with peace of mind.

And Mrs. Fan smiled, "Go, grandson, push grandma, go out and have a look, look at your West Lake."

Fan Xian pushed Mrs. Fan into the backyard. The grandparents and grandson chatted very happily. Mrs. Fan avoided those vicious topics, but talked with Fan Xian about how to get along with Lin Wan'er How to get along, how to get along with Fan Jian, how to get along with Liu Ruyu, the two chatted very happily, and before they knew it, it was time for dinner.

When sending Mrs. Fan back to the back hall again, Fan Xian personally helped Mrs. Fan to the dining table, and finished dinner with Mrs. Fan. At this time, Mrs. Fan also knew that Fan Xian was about to leave. .

When Fan Xian stood in front of Mrs. Fan to bid farewell again, this time the two sides were not as inseparable as they were when they parted for the first time, this time it was especially relaxed.

Fan Xian kowtowed, stood up slowly, and hugged Mrs. Fan——

Night fell slowly, and there were not many people in this team. When they walked out of the gate of Danzhou City, almost no one would pay attention to the presence of this team of people. They left Danzhou City very quickly. Not a trace of lingering.

"Going out for the first time?" Fan Xian looked at the nervous Qu Han in the carriage and asked in a low voice.

"No, it's just that this time it feels much different." Qu Han pursed his lips, lowered his head and glanced at Fan Ruoruo, who looked at Qu Han, and smiled, "Don't worry, I'm not fierce. , You can say whatever you want, it has nothing to do with me."

After Fan Ruoruo said this, Qu Han felt relieved. She let out a sigh of relief and said to Fan Xian, "What shall we do now?"

"Go to the next place." Fan Xian said with a smile.

Hearing what Fan Xian said, Qu Han of course didn't ask any more questions, and opened the curtain to look outside.

Gundam and Wang Qinian were both on horseback, walking forward, the team slowed down after they walked out of Danzhou City, the two of them were at the head, there were not many people in the whole team, there were only six Tiger Guards left, The few people behind were members of the Overwatch Council, Shi Chanli and Mu Tie were on the left and right sides of the carriage, while Deng Ziyue and Huwei followed at the end.

Along the way, the people and horses were tight. This is a very typical defensive formation. During the march, no one dared to take it lightly, because Fan Xian had already explained it very seriously before leaving. It's not that easy to go either.

Fan Xian was sitting in the car at this time, and said to Qu Han, "Do you think we can enter Shazhou City smoothly?"

"Not necessarily. Since the housekeeper was killed that week, it must have been done by someone outside. Obviously our opponent already knew that he had something to do with you. If you knew the secret he was carrying, maybe we would There is a danger of death." Qu Han said.

"I thought so too at first." Fan Xian heaved a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "But after thinking about it, it shouldn't be like this."

"It shouldn't be like this? Why is that? What do you think?" Qu Han didn't quite understand Fan Xian's thoughts.

Fan Xian leaned against the back of the carriage, smiled, and said, "She thought that if I found out, there would be two consequences. The first is to report it directly to the present-day sage. It’s not so peaceful anymore.”

"Or it's the second point. I caught such a terrifying thing, and I will definitely use it to make some movement. At least I will negotiate with the eldest princess, but I don't move at all. If she moves now, it will prove that She has a guilty conscience, so I will know what happened to Steward Zhou, and I will know if I don't know, she will not take such a risk."

"Then... Butler Zhou's death..." Qu Han frowned.

"In the end, we will find the palace!" Fan Xian sneered.
