The Proof of the Heavens Begins with The Legend of the Condor Heroes

Chapter 138 Taking advantage of the topic
Fang Hao has never been a person who plays by the rules.

Finding evidence and identifying the real culprit is what the Supervisory Commission should do. For him, just one result is enough.

Wang Qinian suspected that Fang Hao had found Si Lili's weakness, but that was not the case.

Fang Hao’s method of dealing with it is very simple: if you don’t cooperate, you will die!

Moreover, he didn't care at all who the so-called real murderer was as mentioned by Si Lili.

If the manager wants to survive, he must cooperate with Fang Hao to continue this play.

Moreover, once the matter involves the eldest princess, it will be a serious matter. As a key witness, Si Lili cannot die.

Of course, Prince Fang Hao’s identity also played a big role.

In this case, let alone Mu Tie, a mere assistant clerk, even Zhu Ge, the head of a department of the Supervisory Council, would not be able to handle it.

Only Chen Pingping, the president of the Supervisory Yuan, could step in. Unfortunately, Chen Pingping had recently gone back to his hometown to visit relatives and was not in Kyoto.

"There's no hope. You better keep an eye on the Inspectorate and don't let Si Lili die like this." Fang Hao tapped the table lightly.

"My lord, I can't defeat Shadow Lord from the Sixth Department of the Inspectorate." Fan Wujiu said.

Fan Wujiu and Xie Bian have followed Fang Hao for a long time and know that this gentleman encourages them to speak their true thoughts, otherwise if the action fails, it will be their responsibility.

"Yingzi and Chen Pingping have always been inseparable. You don't have to worry." Fang Hao explained.

"Yes, my lord." Fan Wujiu said.

"Bi'an, let's distribute the things we prepared tonight." Fang Hao said.

"My Lord, tonight?" Xie Bian asked, "Isn't it too early?"

"It's getting late, otherwise when Chen Pingping comes back, we will miss this best opportunity." Fang Hao said.

Why did the princess dare to instruct Lin Gong to assassinate Fan Xian? Wasn't it because Chen Pingping was not there?

The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. This time, Fang Hao wants to be the oriole.

Kyoto in spring is particularly lively. In just one night, a heavy snow fell from the sky, and countless white papers with black words fell on the streets and alleys of Kyoto like snowflakes.

Especially around Imperial College and Wenyuan Pavilion, there are countless treasures to be found.

This was not the first time that verbal papers appeared in the history of Qing State, but it was the first time that verbal papers were used on such a large scale to attack someone.

It must be said that the Supervisory Office responded very quickly. It only took a few hours for the snowflakes of writing to be collected and stored in the inconspicuous building of the Supervisory Office on Tianhe Road.

Having seen the methods used by the Supervisory Commission, no one dared to intercept the leaflets in private.

Even among the hot-blooded students of the Imperial College, no one caused any trouble or rebelled.

But rumors are something that can fly even without wings. In just a few hours, the contents of the rumor paper spread throughout the streets and alleys of Kyoto.

The eldest princess has never had a good reputation in Qing Kingdom. After all, she is already in her thirties and has not yet married, which is quite strange.

So perhaps you don’t believe what the leaflet says, that the princess is a traitor and colludes with foreign countries.

But regarding the matter of the eldest princess adopting a lover and causing chaos in the court, everyone still watched it with a casual attitude.

Facts have proved that no matter what era, there have always been people who like gossip, and their number is not small.

It is better to defend the mouth of the people than to defend the river.

Faced with this situation, the royal family of Qing still felt powerless, coupled with Si Lili's accusations against the eldest princess.

For a time, the eldest princess became the target of public criticism.

……

"boom!"

In Guangxin Palace, the sound of porcelain breaking was heard again.

The eldest princess threw a precious glass cup to the ground.

Her trembling body and white knuckles all showed her anger at the moment.

"Good boy, you have really improved!" The princess said with great effort, trying to calm down. The target of her attack this time was only Fan Xian. Putting the blame on the second prince was just a matter of convenience.

I never expected that Fang Hao's reaction would be so quick.

Not only did she find Si Lili as soon as possible, but she also made Si Lili change her words and turned the tables on her.

But the eldest princess was unable to refute it, because the assassination on Niulan Street was indeed carried out by Lin Gong at her suggestion.

The eldest princess's plan was very clever. If she could successfully kill Fan Xian, the inner treasury would still be under her control.

Even if the assassination fails, you can choose to kill Wu Bo'an and destroy the body, which can not only save Lin Gong, but also completely drag Lin Xiang into the water.

However, the appearance of Yanzhi completely disrupted her plans.

Although the contents on the paper were all fabricated, they completely exposed her, who was supposed to be hiding behind the scenes.

This will undoubtedly make Emperor Qing unhappy, and this is the most fatal thing!

In this world, the only one who can decide her fate is Emperor Qing.

Therefore, although everything the princess does is selfish, as long as it does not cross the red line drawn in Emperor Qing's heart, everything will be fine.

Fang Hao was obviously very clear about this, which is why he used the Niulan Street assassination case to set up a trap and a series of moves to try to take the eldest princess away in one go.

It's only been a few years, and Fang Hao's methods have become so sophisticated. If he doesn't take action, it would be fine. But once he does, he has put himself in such a difficult situation!
"Your Highness, the Queen Mother invites you over." A palace maid walked up to the eldest princess and said.

When the princess heard this, her face immediately turned pale.

……

Kyoto, Sinanbo Mansion

Inside the study, Fan Jian put down his teacup, took a sip and said, "So, you think the murderer is someone else?"

Fan Xian nodded first, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, but Si Lili made it too easy."

“It’s pretty good to be able to see this.”

Fan Jian said: "Although the princess will not easily hand over the jurisdiction of the inner treasury, the means behind the Niulan Street assassination are indeed a bit lacking."

Fan Jian's implication was that if the eldest princess had done this, there would never have been such a big flaw.

"You mean, Si Lili is lying?" Fan Xian understood immediately and asked.

"Si Lili must be lying, but we can't rule out the possibility that the eldest princess is the mastermind behind this."

Fan Jian said in a deep voice: "The princess is a crazy woman. Once she goes crazy, she can do anything."

Fan Xian understood that the princess might not have sent out assassins, but she could still kill someone by using someone else's knife.

"So, the Second Prince is just taking advantage of this situation. Is there any conflict between him and the eldest princess?" Fan Xian thought for a moment and said.

"The second prince once encountered an assassination attempt in Dingzhou. Rumor has it that the person who leaked the second prince's whereabouts was the eldest princess." Fan Jian said.

"So that's how it is. That makes sense." Fan Xian said.

"Let's stop investigating the case for the next few days." Fan Jian suddenly said.

"Why?" Fan Xian asked.

The Second Prince took advantage of the situation to fight with the Eldest Princess, but it was none of his business.

But he must know who the assassin was, for his own sake and for the sake of the guards who died for him.

"Everything has its limits. Once the letter is out, it has already involved the royal family's reputation. Your Majesty will not sit idly by." Fan Jian said.

"That's right." Although Fan Xian had only met this emperor once, he could still feel the majesty of this emperor who held the power of the world.

"Father, how do you think His Majesty will deal with this matter?" Fan Xian asked.

"Order the princess to return to her fiefdom, stay out of the spotlight, and reward you handsomely to appease the people." Fan Jian said.

"Your Majesty is worthy of being called His Majesty because he clearly distinguishes rewards and punishments." Fan Xian said sarcastically.
