Chapter 45 45. Tit for tat [Updated chapter]

Fan Xian's most important thing right now is to capture the assassination center's Si Lili.As for other things, there will be comprehensive planning steps later.But when he and Wang Qinian caught up with the flower boat, it was already too late. Si Lili seemed to have sensed something in advance, lighting the flower boat and disappearing without a trace.Fortunately, Wang Qinian is a master of tracking and found something in the clues.

Si Lili left Kyoto City grandly without anyone being prepared.If he returns to Northern Qi safe and sound, Qingguo will become a joke in the eyes of everyone in the world.Now not only the court is angry, but also the Overwatch Council is in action.

Just when Fan Xian said goodbye to Lin Wan'er and left the city to pursue Si Lili's traces, Zhu Ge blocked the road with a hospital office.Everyone was holding swords and sharp blades. When they saw Fan Xian, they immediately stopped in their tracks: "Fan Xian was involved in the attack on the commander of the palace guards. Get him!"

Fan Xian took out the commander-in-chief card from his arms and said in a lazy and dismissive tone: "Hey! Mr. Zhu, you are the host of Kyoto No. [-]. I am also the commander-in-chief of the same host. When will it be Mr. Zhu's turn to shout? He shouted to be killed. Besides, Shen was not involved, Master Zhu, do you have the final say?"

No one in Kyoto could tell that Zhuge from the Overwatch Council always found Fan Xian uncomfortable.Thinking that he is "a piece of garbage" and that he is too out-of-touch.When Guo Baokun was beaten, he also lacked respect for the royal family. How could such a person become a minister, let alone be in charge of the internal treasury of Qingguo.

Zhu Ge took the initiative to jump out today, first of all for Si Lili, who was responsible for monitoring Kyoto, and the Northern Qi spy naturally fell within his scope of authority.The secondary purpose is for Fan Xian. As a loyal minister who has dedicated his life to the Qing Kingdom, Zhuge wants to take the opportunity to take down the Fan family brothers in one fell swoop, and will never allow any disturbing factors to disturb the Qing Kingdom.

At the moment when the two sides were facing each other, the sound of uniform steps was like the sound of beating war drums, and a group of generals came holding spears and shields.The cold breath is full of chilling oppression, like the black clouds rolling in from the sky, giving people an invincible momentum: "Flying Tiger Cavalry is escorting the second master in and out of Kyoto City in accordance with the military order of the chief instructor!"

The team of a hundred people gave people the illusion of thousands of cavalry, and even the Office of the Overwatch Council couldn't help but retreat.No matter how strong a person's ability is, how can he withstand the force of soldiers rushing into battle?Fan Bu walked at the front with a long gun in his hand, pointing the gun pointed at the people in the Overwatch Council and loudly said: "Lord Zhu Ge, please get out of the way."

Zhuge's face was ugly, and he frowned and shouted: "Are you, the Flying Tiger Cavalry, going to rebel? Who dares to march without His Majesty's order!"

Fan Bu waved his spear and shield, without any hesitation on his face: "Master Zhu, will you give in or not?"

"Gun in front, shield in back, Feihu charges -"

The training of the Flying Tiger Cavalry was planned by Fan Fei, integrating training methods from previous lives and today. The military formation charge is one of the best in the world.Especially after Fan Bu issued the military order, the Flying Tiger Cavalry's phalanx, which was like tofu cubes, immediately began to move in an orderly manner.The soldiers in the front row put their shields back on their backs and held their spears with both hands at the front. The sharp spear points shone like bright moonlight, shining brightly under the rays of the sun.

"blame--"

The shouts of Fei Huqi were like a prelude to an attack. Zhu Ge wanted to reason, but Fan Bu had no intention of paying attention.If Fan Xian hadn't been at the forefront, the charge would have started quietly: "General Fan, you have to remember this. This is Kyoto City. No one can use force here. Once you do it, the chief instructor will definitely kill you." If I am implicated, even I will enter the dungeon of the Overwatch Council. You are not helping me, but harming me!"

"Close the gun!"

The prohibitive military orders had long been integrated into the Flying Tiger Cavalry's instincts, forcing Zhuge to seriously consider again whether blocking the arrest of Fan Xian was really worth the price.Just when he was hesitating, Fan Jian arrived in a carriage and horse: "Flying Tiger Cavalry will return to camp immediately and is not allowed to stay in Kyoto City!"

"Follow the order!"

The title of Chief Instructor was proposed by Fan Fei. He was only the deputy general in Feihuqi, and the real commander has always been Fan Jian.Faced with such a military order, Feihuqi naturally did not dare to neglect it.He immediately put away the weapons in his hands and the team left towards the city gate.But where exactly the Flying Tiger Cavalry's camp is is still a mystery in Kyoto.Many people are secretly guessing how Fan Jian and Fan Fei managed to remain so secretive.

Just like when the Flying Tiger Cavalry was formed and how it was selected and trained.What makes people even more suspicious is when exactly the Flying Tiger Cavalry entered Kyoto.If they hadn't shown up on their own, no one would have known their whereabouts!
"Lord Zhu!"

Zhu Ge could be dismissive of Fan Xian, but he could not ignore Fan Jian. He was one of the people with the highest power in the Qing Kingdom.Besides, Fan Jian greeted him with a smile, and Zhuge couldn't just respond with a cold face, saying, "Master Fan!"

"Children are ignorant, don't argue with them!"

As expected of a senior official who has been in charge of the secrets of the household department for many years, Zhuge was speechless with just one sentence.If he was talking about something, it meant that Zhu Ge's methods were too radical and he would chase Fan Xian after he made a small mistake.You must know that Zhuge is not Fan Fei. He can chase the Ye family and "beat up the drowned dog" without any worries at the court meeting.

Didn't you see that Fan Lang, who was "a smash hit", is now in the dungeon of the Overwatch Council?
Zhu Ge also knew that things could not be forced. His Majesty ordered Fan Fei to be imprisoned without any real treatment.In other words, there are still variables about what happened to Yan Xiaoyi.The reason why Zhuge took action in a hurry was to create a gap in information and time.Before anyone could react, they took down Fan Xian and asked him to plead guilty. Unexpectedly, Fan Jian would actually do it himself: "Master Fan, you are joking."

Zhuge is now thinking of taking action. Supervisor Fan will definitely go to the palace to plead for mercy. After all, both sons are in jail.No one can figure out what His Majesty really means now. Fan Fei will really get out of the dungeon if he can't handle it. This is definitely not the result Zhuge wants to see.Seeing that nothing could be done, Zhuge could only take people away.While Fan Fei was still imprisoned in the dungeon, Zhu Ge knew very well that something must be done during this time.

Zhuge thought secretly in his heart: "Maybe I should make a move. Fan Fei can never stand in the court. Qingguo does not need such a domineering person who acts without scruples!"

Fan Jian gave Fan Xian and Wang Qinian a few words and let them do what they should do.After he returned home, he immediately changed into his official uniform and entered the palace, facing the thunderous wrath of Emperor Qing.

No matter who he is, no matter which emperor he is, the Ministry of Personnel and the Ministry of War must be firmly in his hands.The prince and the second prince had previously touched these two cakes and were severely scolded by Emperor Qing.Now that Fan Fei secretly mobilized the Flying Tiger Cavalry and openly suppressed the Overwatch Council in Kyoto, there should be an explanation for this matter.

The two old foxes started a duel between the emperor and his ministers in the royal study. Throughout the whole process, Emperor Qing was yelling and asking harsh questions, while Fan Jian responded with a calm attitude.He neither apologized nor denied it excessively.The attitude of neither yin nor yang can be called a model of "slippery but not slippery".Even an emperor with a strong and domineering personality like Emperor Qing could only look back and sigh in silence.He wasn't really angry, he really wanted to do something to Fan Jian. Emperor Qing had at least hundreds of ways to "kill" Fan Jian.

However, Emperor Qing was still a little uncomfortable in the face of Fan Jian's attitude of not making any progress.Since he was already feeling uncomfortable, Fan Jian naturally didn't want to feel comfortable either.Isn't playing tricks on ministers one of the emperor's daily "funs"?
"Old guy! I remember Xiaofei is already an adult. Didn't you say you wanted to get engaged last time?"

What Emperor Qing said immediately made Fan Jian feel cold in his heart.What could Fan Jian say? This was the authority of the emperor. He could only follow Emperor Qing's wishes and said: "Your Majesty, it's time for Xiao Fei to get engaged!"

"Childhood sweetheart! Childhood sweetheart! Old guy, how do you feel?"

Fan Jian was stunned by the words spoken by Emperor Qing.After all, he had never thought of it this way in his mind, nor did he expect Emperor Qing's idea to be so "crazy".If he hadn't known the truth, Qingguo would have become "the laughingstock of the world."But now that Emperor Qing has said it, it means that he is not joking, but really has such a plan.
