Li Chengze was angry and felt that he had been fooled.
"It seems that Your Highness has forgotten that we are just partners and not everything needs to be reported to you."
"presumptuous…"
The emperor humiliated his subjects to death, and just as Li Chengze finished speaking, Xie Bi'an's sword was already on Tianjiexing's neck.
"Excellent swordsmanship. Sir Xie is worthy of the name of the Supreme Sword Master. Only masters like Liu Yidao and Qian Chunqiang are worthy of being your opponents."
Tianjie Xingming praised them but actually criticized them. The ratio was two to one. Compared with the Eastern Palace, the high-end combat power of Prince Cheng's Mansion was not superior.
"Do you think that just because you escaped from Liu Yidao's hands, you have the right to talk to me like this?"
Xie Bi'an smiled slightly, Tianjiexing's neck had already started to bleed.
"If Your Highness wants to kill me, I am willing to commit suicide. However, from now on, the cooperation between our two families may..."
"Bi'an, put down the sword."
Li Chengze knew that this was not the time to turn against Tianshatang.
"I hope this is the last time. Also, who is the person who asked you to kill Fan Xian this time?"
"this?"
"Can't you even tell me this?"
Li Chengze said with a gloomy face.
"Your Highness, please forgive me. In our industry, it is not allowed to betray the identity of the employer. I will not betray her today, and I will not betray you in the future."
Tianjiexing was certain that Li Chengze would not dare to touch him, and he was not going to give him any face at all.
"Your Highness, why don't you let me kill him?"
Guards don't have to be too smart, they just need to be obedient. In the past few years, Xie Bian has been playing his role well.
“Now is not the time to turn against them. I still need them to deal with the East Palace.
This incident is not without benefits. I have already guessed the identity of the person behind Tiansha Hall.
Apart from that bitch, no one would be so bold..."
The scene Li Chengqian performed two years ago was so realistic that up to now, no one has linked him to the mastermind behind Tiansha Hall.
…………
East Palace
Li Chengqian felt that in the current world, it would be difficult for him to regain interest and take the trouble to please a woman.
He could understand that the Fu sisters were born as palace maids, and that they tried their best to please him in order to survive; but why would Fan Ruoruo, the Crown Princess and one of the heroines in the original drama, do the same?
Ah, life is really not easy for women in feudal society. Let me comfort them.
"Ruoruo, who did you learn these from?"
"Does Your Highness like it?"
Although exhausted, Fan Ruoruo still obediently helped clean up the battlefield.
"Will this be too unfair to you?"
Li Chengqian pulled Fan Ruoruo into his arms and spoke softly.
"As long as Your Highness likes it, Ruoruo will not feel wronged."
Li Chengqian visited the Fu sisters many times, and Fan Ruoruo had nothing to do, so she started flipping through the books in the East Palace and accidentally found a special book.
Although she was a little embarrassed at first, she still finished reading it with a blushing face in order to please Li Chengqian.
Today was just the first try, but seeing her husband's satisfied smile, she felt it was all worth it.
"Go back to the Fan Mansion tomorrow and visit Fan Xian for me."
"If Ruoruo returns home, will it cause trouble for His Highness?"
Fan Ruoruo's heart is completely tied to Li Chengqian.
"No, your elder brother was assassinated, so you should go there for both moral and logical reasons. When you get to the Fan residence, if they ask you questions, just say you know if you know, and if you don't know, just say you don't know."
Li Chengqian warned her because he was afraid that Fan Ruoruo would act on her own and something unexpected would happen.
"Yeah, Ruoruo understands."
Fan Ruoruo agreed.
"Then let's go to bed..."
"Your Highness, Xiao Ping is waiting outside, let's call her in..."
For some things, once you take the first step, the rest will come naturally.
…………
Fan Mansion
Fan Ruoruo originally wanted to return home in the morning, but she obviously overestimated her physical fitness, or underestimated the intensity of last night's exercise.
"I've met the Crown Princess."
"Free gift"
"Ruoruo, you are finally back. Our Fan family has not been bullied like this in these years."
As soon as Fan Ruoruo got off the carriage, Liu Ruyu came to greet her.
Didn't they say that he had been neglected by the prince during this period? It doesn't look like that?
As someone who had experienced this, Liu Ruyu knew that the news from the East Palace was wrong just by looking at Fan Ruoruo's radiant face.
"Aunt, let's talk about it after we go into the mansion."
At Fan Ruoruo's command, the entourage entered the Fan Mansion.
"Ruoruo, where's Xiaoping? Why didn't she come back with you this time?"
Seeing that the maid accompanying Fan Ruoruo was not Xiaoping from the Fan Mansion, Liu Ruyu was puzzled.
"Xiao Ping, she caught a cold last night, and I asked her to rest in the palace. What's the matter, Auntie, you want to see her for something?"
"No, no, I'm just asking."
Xiaoping was the spy planted by Liu Ruyu in the Eastern Palace.
"Where's my brother? How is his injury? Why isn't he at home?"
"Fan Xian is fine, his injuries are not serious. He went to the Overwatch Council with a team of guards early in the morning, saying that he was going to find someone to help."
Without Fan Ruoruo's mediation, Fan Xian did not get along well with others in the Fan Mansion;
Although Liu Ruyu did not say it explicitly, deep down in her heart she already regarded him as a disaster.
There were still twelve people when I went out yesterday morning, but how about coming back?Counting himself and the one who will lie dead, there are only two people left.
"Supervisory Council?" Fan Ruoruo asked curiously.
The Overwatch Council is a terrifying entity in Kyoto. My brother has just arrived in the capital, so how could he be related to them?
…………
Familiarity is really important. Including the time when they were babies, this should be the second time Fan Xian and Chen Pingping met. But just these two meetings made Fan Xian feel that the person in front of him was someone he could trust for the rest of his life.
"It's cold in Kyoto. You're wearing too little."
The two looked at each other for a long time, and Chen Pingping spoke first.
"Oh"
What kind of look was that? Concern? Love? What was his relationship with my mother?
Fan Xian speculated in his heart.
"Your eyes look like hers."
Looking at Fan Xian's bright eyes, Chen Pingping thought of the deceased Ye Qingmei. She was his belief and the only light in his dark life.
"she?"
"Your mother, Ye Qingmei."
In order to gain Fan Xian's trust as quickly as possible so that he could protect him more conveniently, Chen Pingping spoke straight to the point.
"How did my mother die? Who wanted to kill her?"
At this moment, Fan Xian has fallen into the quagmire of Kyoto City, but he has not forgotten his original intention of coming here, to investigate the cause of his mother's death.
"We have already killed all the people who killed your mother over the years."
Just a simple sentence, but it revealed a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
"Who were the people who assassinated me on Niulan Street yesterday? Why did they want to kill me?"
"The people who assassinated you were from Tiansha Hall and the Northern Qi Intelligence Group. As for the mastermind behind the scenes, I think you should know."
Chen Pingping said with narrowed eyes.
"What do I know? I know..."
Fan Xian was a smart man, and he did have some guesses about the mastermind behind the assassination on Niulan Street.
"That's right. After all, she is Lin Wan'er's biological mother, and the ones who died were just a few insignificant guards. It makes sense for you to pretend to be confused."
"You're talking nonsense. It doesn't matter who they are. They died for me, and I will definitely avenge them."
It doesn’t matter. Chen Pingping’s words “it doesn’t matter” irritated Fan Xian’s sensitive nerves.
"Oh, then can you tell me how you plan to avenge them?"
Chen Pingping looked like he was ready to watch the show.
Chapter 226 Si Lili
He wanted to do a test to understand why Chen Pingping treated Fan Xian like this.
Over the years, he has already guessed the culprit behind Ye Qingmei's death, and all he lacks is a piece of evidence.
If it was really him, who should avenge her? As a son, Fan Xian had an obligation to avenge her, but he was in such a position.
Chen Pingping had many concerns. He wanted to see clearly what kind of person Fan Xian was before making a decision.
"I want to know the truth of the matter, the truth about how I was stabbed in Danzhou, the truth about how I was stabbed in Niulan Street."
"It's a good habit to plan before you act. But you have to find out the truth yourself. I don't think you would believe what others tell you."
After observing people for a lifetime, Chen Pingping could see that Fan Xian lacked a sense of security.
"Dean, Si Lili is back."
While the two were talking, Zhuge reported outside the door.
"Nothing went wrong along the way?"
"We set up an ambush, but the ones who came were a bunch of assassins, leaving no one alive."
Zhuge was also disappointed with the result.
"It's okay. At least it proves that she is valuable. Take her to the dungeon first."
Chen Pingping said calmly.
"Si Lili, isn't she the most beautiful girl in Zuixianju? Why did you arrest her?"
After all, she was the first woman in the world who had slept in the same bed with him. Although she hadn't done anything, Fan Xian still had something to say when he heard that she was caught.
"Zuixianju is a base of Northern Qi in Kyoto City, and Si Lili is the person in charge of this base. She was the one who planned your assassination on Niulan Street. So, you didn't expect that, did you?"
"The more beautiful a woman is, the more likely she is to lie..."
Fan Xian blurted out.
"Well, that's a very accurate summary. It seems you haven't been idle in Danzhou these years."
Just like a long illness makes a good doctor, if you haven't experienced betrayal hundreds of times, you can't make such wise words.
"You..." (You are going too far)
