Celebrating more than two years of peace in the world

Chapter 143 Jinyiwei Commander
Fan Xian's face was full of doubts, but he was really happy in his heart. He was the one who played this game. Could it be that he didn't know what he was playing?

The python pattern was the empress dowager's handwriting. Fan Xian was there when the python pattern was unloaded from the heavy load, and the person who gloated at that time was the current Uesugi Tiger.It's just a change of location.

"If I remember correctly, then..." Fan Xian was in the middle of speaking when Uesugi Tiger rudely interrupted him. He looked at Fan Xian and coughed coldly.

"Minister Uesugi Torano, I greet Your Majesty!" Uesugi Torano knelt down on the ground and calmly kowtowed to the emperor of Northern Qi.

At this time, Fan Xian did not kneel down, but bowed deeply, "Although Mr. Zhuang Mo, Han Zhuang and I are not named as masters and apprentices, the books we have collected throughout our lives have been donated to foreign ministers, and we have already become masters and apprentices." , Master passed away, and it was the month of offering sacrifices, so I should have worn linen and filial piety, but I am a citizen of Qing, and I don’t have the etiquette of Qi, so I came here in plain clothes, but I remember that Qi is a state of etiquette, I pay much attention to etiquette, if I kneel before His Majesty the Emperor during the mourning month, it would be a big mistake."

The emperor didn't bother to chat with Fan Xian, everyone knew he was talking nonsense here, but his flattery of the Qing Dynasty made it impossible for anyone to give him a bad word, so the emperor ignored him and directly addressed the eunuch beside him. Said, "Get ready for the banquet."

"The banquet begins!" the father-in-law announced with a hoarse voice.

Uesugi Tiger's performance was quite satisfactory, which was within the range of Fan Xian's expectations for him. After all, he was a general, and he didn't have a deep understanding of scheming.This is both a disadvantage and an advantage, but under Fan Xian's control, this is only a disadvantage.

The banquet is going on as usual. This is not the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet. In addition, the Empress Dowager is seriously ill at this time in the palace, and Mr. Zhuang's sacrificial ceremony is about to begin. Such bad things gather together. The emperor didn't find anyone to sing and dance tonight, but everyone together Have a light meal.

"Today's dinner." The emperor spoke. He raised his wine glass and sat upright facing the officials. Daqi was a little caught off guard, but General Uesugi Tiger is sitting firmly in the army, it is the great fortune of the court and the blessing of the officials, why not bring wine with me and send the general out of the customs!"

At this time, the officials followed the emperor to raise the wine glass, and everyone drank a glass of wine together.

The banquet was going on normally, during which Uesugi Tiger and Fan Xian did not have any interaction, the meal was actually arranged in a mediocre manner, the emperor drank a few glasses of wine, threatened to feel unwell, so he withdrew, Fan Xian saw that the emperor withdrew Yes, and he took Wang Qinian and left early.

Unexpectedly, after walking out of the main hall, Uesugi Tiger hurriedly followed, and stopped Fan Xian loudly.

"Master Fan!" Uesugi Tiger came out, looked Fan Xian over, and said with a smile, "Unexpectedly, you really dare to come."

"Why don't you dare?" Fan Xian looked at Uesugi Tiger and said, "Could it be that the General wants to kill me in the palace in Shangjing?"

"Do you still remember how Chong Chong died?" Uesugi Tiger looked at Fan Xian.

"The General knew how to die for Chong Chong?" Fan Xian smiled, "I now think that the General really didn't know why Chong Chong died."

"It's a joke, heavy is death by my hands. You speak like this, which reveals that your Overwatch Council's news channels are too poor. I didn't think of it." Uesugi Tiger said with a sneer.

Fan Xian sighed, and said to Uesugi Tiger, "You killed Chong, but you don't know how he died, General."

"How else can I die? I was shot through the body and died, what? Master Fan wants to experience it?" Uesugi Tiger sneered.

"The general only knows one thing and doesn't know the other. Then let me ask you, the general killed the commander of Jin Yiwei on the street, why didn't the emperor ask you for anything?" Fan Xian smiled. Looking at the sneering Uesugi Tiger, he said, "The General doesn't think that Shen Chong belongs to the Empress Dowager, does he?"

Uesugi Tiger glanced at Fan Xian suspiciously, but he still didn't believe what Fan Xian said, "It doesn't matter who it is? We are loyal to Qi."

"Loyal to the Qi State? Hahaha, the general said it lightly, so many people who are loyal to the Qi State, who will end well?" Fan Xian looked at Uesugi Tiger, "Sean? Or heavy?"

"Fan Xian, you're so presumptuous, you're in the palace of Qi Kingdom, and I can arrest you anytime!" Uesugi Tiger was furious when Sean was mentioned.

Fan Xian didn't take it seriously, and continued, "My lord, heavy death, you have to understand that the Northern Qi emperor acquiesced in this matter, and then let you live until now. There's no way around it."

"Joke, I have military power, what can he do?" Uesugi Tiger said in a low voice.

Fan Xian shook his head, "General, if you can listen to it, listen to it. If you can't listen to it, then pretend that someone Fan didn't say it. I can tell you very clearly that the Queen Mother's illness is not a coincidence. And the last order given by the Empress Dowager when she got sick was for you to send troops."

Uesugi Tiger looked at Fan Xian, as if he didn't directly understand the meaning of his words.

"Goodbye." After leaving these words, Fan Xian left.

Wang Qinian closely followed Fan Xian, dodging his eyes, trying to see clearly what Uesugi Tiger was doing behind him, but the other party seemed to be thinking and did not catch up.

"My lord, can he understand you when you say that?" Wang Qinian asked.

"I just want him not to understand. If he understands everything, now Uesugi Tiger will go back to the Queen Mother to verify, and we can no longer lie to him." Fan Xian smiled, "Now he is all guessing, we must find a way There is no time to verify some things, so Uesugi Tiger may not be able to sleep tonight."

"My lord is indeed wise." Wang Qinian said excitedly.

"Don't say it, Uesugi Tiger can believe me or not, it's just a poor general, he will bear a bad name from now on, these two foster fathers and sons have worked hard for Daqi, who would have thought that they would end up How about such a field?" Fan Xian shook his head, "Only now can I understand why the original Qin Hui insisted on Yue Fei's death."

"Huh? Qin Hui? Yue Fei?" Wang Qinian rolled his eyes, obviously he didn't know who Fan Xian was talking about.

"You don't need to know, it's just people from the fairy world." Fan Xian smiled, and the two walked out of the palace, turned left and walked away.

A layer of haze seemed to have shifted from Cangzhou City to the sky above Shangjing City in Northern Qi Dynasty.

In the early morning of the next day, the exhausted Uesugi Tiger, wearing a battle uniform, led his [-] soldiers, under the watchful eyes of the little Northern Qi emperor, and joined the army outside the capital city.

The [-]-strong army set off without any delay, and set foot on the border of the Western Frontier Pass. It would take five or six days to rush from the capital city of Northern Qi to the Western Frontier Pass. If the army walks, at least it will take more than a month, two months to arrive.

Northern Qi fought mainly with cavalry, but infantry was still the fighting force of most countries, and Northern Qi was no exception, so the infantry's itinerary greatly delayed the progress. Fan Xian estimated that it would take two months, but in fact it was about the same.He understands a truth, even if the army of the Qing State at the western frontier pass smashed the Turkic tribes that belonged to the Qi State, this Uesugi Tiger will never run fast, because it takes a thousand miles to raise enough soldiers and horses, and Uesugi Tiger understands more than others, so he will not run fast even if he collects the corpse.

This is also the reason why Fan Xian is not in a hurry. This is not the present age. Even if the news of his entry into the capital arrives at the western frontier within five days at the earliest, it will take half a month for the second prince to do it. This is the fastest way. Yes, coupled with the speed of information transmission, the second prince's action, and it will take 20 days at the earliest to receive the information here. If Fan Xian is captured and sent to the western frontier for captive trading, it will be a month later. son.

This is why Fan Xian is not in a hurry. The time is still very long. In this era of life, one must not be in a hurry, or you will make irreparable mistakes. Therefore, Fan Xian's character has become what he is now. He can't be in a hurry. You can't mess up your position, even if you know what is about to happen.

So for the past few days, Fan Xian sat peacefully in the courtyard prepared for him by Jin Yiwei. Fan Xian really had nothing to do during this time, so he simply brought Fan Sizhe and Qu Han into contact. It doesn't matter, the two hit it off as soon as they met, Qu Han began to tell Fan Sizhe about the art of businessmen, and the two chatted for a long time, which was even more enjoyable.

Fan Xian looked at the two children, and of course he felt very relieved. Thinking about how hard it was for these two children to be so enthusiastic about something that no one was very interested in, Fan Xian didn't bother, so he left it to the two of them. Just give them some space and let them discuss it by themselves.

Today's Fan Xian is sitting on the recliner, staggering, holding Mr. Zhuang's classic book in his hand, which is the Art of War of Dongyi City. It's very different, but it's also interesting, and it's all about killing the boring time.

Coincidentally, at this moment, a figure blocked the sunlight. Fan Xian immediately turned his head and found Gao Da standing not far away, looking at him awkwardly and smiling, and standing beside him was a woman in black. He could tell who it was, he was about to close it, sat up, looked at Si Lili in front of him, and asked, "A person who is about to become a queen, how decent is it to show his face in public? Don't ask me a crime? If the Jinyiwei people know, read me a copy, I am a member of the Northern Qi Dynasty, and I will be ruined when I go back to Nanqing, how can I explain it?"

Si Lili looked at Fan Xian with disdain, and took off the bamboo hat on her face. She let out a calm breath, and then sat down beside Fan Xian, "The emperor knows."

"You know?" Fan Xian smiled.

In fact, if the relationship between him and Si Lili hadn't been for that night in the thatched cottage, it would have been weak before, but after Haitang Duoduo's tricks, it would be trivial to say that they were entangled now, but Fan Xian had always kept this matter hidden. In his heart, even if the Lord stood in front of him, he would not say anything about their relationship.

"This little emperor has a big heart."

Si Lili smiled angrily, "You're cramming, it's too late, isn't it?"

When Fan Xian turned his head, the big characters Zhuang Mohan could be seen on the cover of the book he had just read. Fan Xian smiled awkwardly. These books were given to him by Lin Waner before he left. Then he said, "It's not like holding the Buddha's feet for sacrifice, but it's just that the battle is coming soon, and I want to read the art of war. Unexpectedly, a man named Gu Gu in Dongyi City wrote the art of war, and the other so-called People in the big countries, Qi and Qing, and even Xihu don't have a book on the art of war."

"Qing's infantry and archers are very powerful, suitable for medium-distance warfare, coupled with strong soldiers and horses, and wealth, and now they are beginning to develop cavalry, while Qi has strong cavalry, strong people, and strong endurance. This is the difference between the two countries. The difference between them." Si Lili said.

"I didn't expect you to be so interested in these wars." Fan Xian said in surprise.

"It's not that I'm interested." Si Lili picked up the book, flipped through a few pages and said, "It's just that now that I've reached this point, if I don't study some things, when the emperor comes to chat with me, I don't even know what to do with him." What to say, besides, don’t forget, I used to be the same as you, except that we are not called Overwatch Council, but Jinyiwei.”

"Oh!" Fan Xian pretended to suddenly remember, "I even forgot that this is Daqi's number one female spy."

"Spy?" Si Li was puzzled.

"A spy is a spy." Fan Xian smiled.

"This time you go to the Western Frontier Pass, you have to be careful not only Uesugi Tiger and your second prince." Si Lili suddenly said to Fan Xian with a serious face, "The situation there is quite complicated, and it's not something that can be done in a short while. I made it clear to you, but you have that weird place everywhere, you shouldn’t lack information, right?”

"Hmm..." Fan Xian said, "I understand, the information from everywhere has arrived, you are talking about Xihu people, right?"

"You must have a good grasp of the terrain of the West Frontier Pass, otherwise many places will be easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the slightest damage may cause the entire army to be wiped out." Si Lili said, "The Xihu people are waiting in the West Frontier They have been here for a very long time, and they are very familiar with the terrain there, so it is best for you not to conflict there."

"Conflicts are inevitable." Fan Xian said, "I know those Xihu people have a bad temper, but it's not a bad thing for me. I'm not the one who leads the troops to fight."

"What if?" Si Lili smiled, "You come to Northern Qi, you can underestimate the commander of Jin Yiwei, but you absolutely cannot underestimate Jin Yiwei."

"Oh?" Fan Xian looked at Si Lili, who suddenly laughed, "Are you finally going to confess something to me?"

Si Lili looked at Fan Xian in surprise but joy, "Sure enough, I haven't misread you, Fan Tisi."

"I didn't misread you, my lord, the Commander-in-Chief of Jinyiwei of the Northern Qi Dynasty."

The two smiled at each other.

Since that day, Si Lili has never been in the side courtyard again.

Fan Xian did not expect that Si Lili would reveal his identity to him so early, in fact, he was also a little surprised.

In fact, when Fan Xian knew that Si Lili was taking over as the commander-in-chief of Jinyiwei in the Northern Qi Dynasty, that is, when he first entered the Northern Qi Dynasty, He Daoren gave him the information, which was brought back by Shi Chanli. It's really a mallet, and he doesn't even know who his boss is.

Moreover, after Fan Xian found out about Si Lili's identity, Fan Xian had this strategy in mind, and he also knew why the Queen Mother of the Northern Qi Dynasty fell ill at this juncture. This woman's handwriting.

Fan Xian could understand that the Queen Mother was unwilling to make Si Lili the empress. Si Lili could understand the old lady's strong desire to control her son, so Si Lili could back down and endure, but now her son was born. Well, if after Yuansuo, there is only such a prince in the current dynasty, and there is no concubine in the harem, your mother will not make me the queen, but make my prince the prince, then Si Lili will do it, who will All make sense.

It's just that her vision is still too narrow.

Fan Xian understands this truth. Even if Si Lili succeeds, when the queen mother really falls, it is impossible for her Si Lili and her family to die in peace. This is something that cannot happen around the emperor. The emperor will definitely find a Reason, kill her.After all, this is the crime of killing his mother. Besides, the little emperor of Beiqi didn't have any big thoughts in the first place, and everyone knew what he was thinking.

Therefore, even for the sake of this child, Fan Xian had to help Si Lili. The person who did the work changed from Si Lili to Uesugi Tiger. Poor Uesugi Tiger didn't know what happened, so he hurried Embarked on the road of expanding the territory for the Northern Qi Dynasty.

That's why Fan Xian lamented Yue Fei.

The soldiers who go out to shed blood and tears and the eunuchs and ministers who are comfortable in the palace, who is more powerful in this government?It depends on where you are sitting. If it wasn't for the fall of the capital, then all the previous problems would not be any problems in the eyes of these ministers, ministers and eunuchs. What they have to consider is what the emperor is thinking, what the emperor wants What the emperor likes, so in a sense, they are not wrong.

It's just a different position.

………………

………………

Time passed quickly, and when Fan Xian appeared in front of Wenwu of the Manchu Dynasty of Qi State for the second time, it was already time for the sacrificial ceremony.

The emperor was not present, but the queen-to-be, Si Lili, who was known throughout the country to give birth to a prince, was present.

But women certainly cannot sit on the main seat, so the academicians from the Northern Qi Tai Academy sit on the main seat.

Fan Xian appeared in full view as the successor of the highest academic in the Northern Qi Dynasty. On this occasion, the harsh and mean scholars would definitely make things difficult for Fan Xian, but they were all suppressed by the academicians of the Northern Qi Tai Academy. The huge value of academics regardless of national boundaries or territories was narrated for an hour.

And at the last moment, I wanted to borrow some of the only surviving copies of Mr. Zhuang Mohan kept by Fan Xian to come back and transcribe.

Of course, Fan Xian could only use the name of Qingguo Academy, and promised that after returning to Qingguo, someone would transcribe and send it to him immediately. After all, His Majesty the Emperor of Nanqing also had a huge value of academics regardless of national boundaries or territories. The two of them It's a pretty good fit.

No one would do anything wrong at the sacrificial ceremony. After all, this is the most prestigious literary priest in the contemporary era. No one would make irresponsible remarks. All the officials of the Northern Qi Dynasty were tense and might collapse at any time.And other well-known onlookers who came to surround the sacrificial ceremony three times inside and outside three circles, and even cried out because of the deeds of Mr. Zhuang Mohan, and said with snot and tears that there is no one in the world. And so on.

Fan Xian didn't take it seriously either. After all, he knew better than anyone how he got his name. If it wasn't for the sake of surviving, the collection of half-time poems would definitely not be published, so Fan Xian didn't put these unnecessary Fame is too important. As for who the onlookers like to say has high literary attainments, it has nothing to do with him.

The sacrificial ceremony ended after the imperial eunuch conveyed His Majesty's imperial edict.

But the blockbuster that followed cast a cloud over all the officials present.

Fan Xian didn't know about this until he returned to his place of residence, because Tong Zhi was already waiting at the gate of his courtyard.

Fan Xian didn't enter through the main entrance at the first time, so he didn't meet his colleague. He only heard about it after he returned to his room.

The western frontier is at war.

The second prince of Qing State led Xisai to station 12 troops in Qing State to directly clash with the Turkic tribes. Although the Turkic tribes had 5 people, most of them were ordinary people in the city. There are a lot of old, weak, sick and disabled, high-ranking officials and generals, support women cooks, etc., but there are not many real combat effectiveness.

Moreover, the cities of the Turkic tribes still had to be defended. The second prince had [-] mercenaries, which was nearly double the number of sustainable fighters of the opponent.

This time the Second Prince was of course a great victory. His sudden offensive made the entire Turkic city's defense line retreat ten miles, and the Second Prince was even more deceptive, directly advancing the camp where he was stationed for twenty miles. The place where the army set up camp was only twenty miles away from the battlefield.

Of course, Fan Xian knew what the second prince was up to. He was fighting Turks now, not for the sake of fighting, but to let the people in Northern Qi know that he, the second prince of Nanqing, was a ruthless man. He was now strong and ready to break through. Even if the city of the Turkic tribe was massacred, the second prince had to give Fan Xian to Bei Qi, and let the people of Bei Qi capture him and give it to him. Otherwise, Bei Qi might lose one of his vassal states. would really be isolated.

Fan Xian listened to these tips comfortably, but didn't say anything.

On the contrary, Wang Qinian, who was not in a hurry for the emperor and the eunuchs, came to Fan Xian's side, "My lord, there is nothing wrong with things going in this direction, but how are you going to deal with it now?"

"Wait for Shang Shanhu," Fan Xian said.

"What do you mean?" Wang Qinian was puzzled.

"If I don't go out, I don't dare to come in and arrest me." Fan Xian said leisurely, "I'm just a missionary of the Qing Dynasty under house arrest by the Northern Qi Dynasty. The war is imminent. I'm not a missionary of the war. I came here to detain a priest. The missions here couldn't be more normal, Bei Qi is not stupid, no matter what, they don't want to suffer, even if they suffer, they have to suffer with Qing Guo."

The matter was indeed as Fan Xian said, the Tongzhi did not come in to arrest Fan Xian, but just surrounded the place where Fan Xian lived inside and outside according to the treatment of house arrest, as if the entire Jinyiwei in Shangjing City Everyone was watching Fan Xian, and Fan Xian didn't do anything superfluous, but continued to sit in the room as he did before the sacrifice.

It's just that Fan Sizhe is unlucky that he can't meet Qu Han anymore, and he really keeps a low profile. In the past, Fan Sizhe would have at least used a pair of scissors to fight to the death with Tongzhi, but now he has been here for two days in a row, and he saw this After that, it never came again.

Fan Xian and the others were kept in the courtyard, but they had nothing to do. The people below lamented that it was really good to do things with Mr. Fan Tisi. They have been resting for almost a month. Leisurely, but not very relaxed. After all, Fan Xian had set a course for them early on. Not only Shi Chanli and Wang Qinian, but even the two brothers Deng Ziyue and Deng Zifei, as well as the maid and Qu Han, had already started to follow Fan Xian, every day. I got up before dawn.

A few people started running around the courtyard. Fan Xian taught them all the stages of the second set of radio gymnastics "The Rising Sun" for elementary and middle school students. They studied it very seriously. All the people practiced according to the specifications of the peerless magic arts, and their seriousness can be imagined.

After doing it for a few days, Wang Qinian asked early in the morning, "My lord, what is the name of this set of exercises? Why have I practiced for so long, but I don't feel the slightest improvement in my strength."

Fan Xian definitely didn't know how they studied the second set of radio gymnastics for primary and middle school students in private, and he didn't know what they called it, but he needed to exercise, so he took these people to exercise together. Unexpectedly Wang Qinian would attach so much importance to it, but Fan Xian was ashamed to say that this was the only thing in his mind that elementary and middle school students used to exercise, right?

After thinking for a while, he said, "This is an extremely easy-to-practice set of exercises. Although the moves are not complicated, you need to be careful every step of the way. If you make a wrong step, you won't go crazy, but It will fail to achieve the purpose of cultivation.”

"Then what's the purpose of training?" Wang Qinian looked at Fan Xian suspiciously, "I didn't feel the speed of my feet, nor did I feel how much my strength had improved."

"Then how do you feel?" Fan Xian looked at Wang Qinian suspiciously and asked.

"Hiss..." Wang Qinian took a deep breath and began to think back seriously. After practicing the exercises handed down by Fan Xian for the past few days, the changes in his body suddenly occurred to him, "I just feel that my body is also getting up early. Being able to move in the first place is indeed much more comfortable than before.”

"Of course." Fan Xian said, "In the fairy world, there used to be a family who practiced this set of exercises. Their father lived to be 72 years old, but the two sons didn't practice hard, and they only lived to more than 50 years old. Reaching 60 years old, you understand?"

"72 years old?" Wang Qinian looked at Fan Xian. He couldn't imagine this age. Mr. Zhuang Mo Hanzhuang was only in his 60s when he passed away. The person I was talking about actually lived to be 72 years old!
"Of course, would I still lie to you?" Fan Xian said, "And that person also died of illness. If he was not ill, he might live to be a hundred years old, because before he got sick, he was still alive and well."

Wang Qinian immediately said to Fan Xian with a serious expression, "My lord, this great kindness and virtue will never be forgotten by my subordinates. Please allow me, my lord, to pass on this exercise to my wife and daughter through the Secret Way of the Overwatch Council. Madame is not feeling well recently, I received a letter from home, Madam's health can be said to be..."

"Chuan Chuan Chuan." Fan Xian waved his hand, and didn't bother to talk to him. A primary and middle school student's radio gymnastics was blown into a five-animal show by Fan Xian. If things were straightened out, Fan Xian believed that their lifespan would not be short.

Just when Fan Xian was about to turn his head and leave, he realized that Gao Da, a few Tiger Guards, Qu Han and other members of the Overwatch Council were eavesdropping behind them. I was practicing the rising sun radio gymnastics, but I didn't know what it was for. After listening to Fan Xian's explanation this time, it was simply a practice of immortality, and it immediately spread.

"It's only effective when you wake up in the morning!" Fan Xian shouted loudly.

"It's my lord!" Gundam yelled from behind the house.

"Your Excellency is wise!" Deng Ziyue shouted beside the well.

"My lord is mighty!" Qu Han shouted not far behind Fan Xian.

When Fan Xian looked back helplessly, everyone ran away, not a single hair was left.

These days are still going on, the difference is that these people's enthusiasm and love for radio gymnastics has surpassed day by day, and even in the middle of the night one day they heard the two brothers Deng Ziyue and Deng Zifei doing the rising sun under the moonlight, Fan Xian I also laughed it off, I have to find something for this group of people to do, otherwise, if they continue to live aimlessly like this, everyone will grow hair.

It's just that such a quiet day didn't last long. With the sound of a golden gong, their peaceful life was shattered. Fan Xian remembered that day very clearly, and bad news came from the entire capital.

The Queen Mother is dead.

The entire Shangjing City became extremely quiet, all housing markets, streets, and stalls were closed, and even the inns were closed.

The Jinyiwei guarding Fan Xian and the others changed from a few hundred people to four at the front gate and four at the back gate overnight.

It's just that Fan Xian didn't run around, he was still in the courtyard, watching quietly, he didn't take any action, just waited quietly, waiting for the second step of this matter to come out, and also waiting for this matter Things, get into his rhythm.

The empress dowager's death shocked the entire sky of Shangjing, and all the ministers were in fear.

Because there were very few royalists in the past, and now the national teacher Kuhe is not in the palace, then the whole Northern Qi Dynasty, the person who should have covered the sky with one hand, really started to cover the sky with one hand, and it was at this time that the emperor issued the first secret decree , Order the Ministry of Criminal Justice to find out the murderer as soon as possible!

There was no word about this matter, so the person who told Fan Xian was of course the current Commander-in-Chief of Jin Yiwei, Si Lili.

When Si Lili brought this news to Fan Xian, the whole country of Qi was already in shock.

News of the Queen Mother's death spread very quickly.

"So when the Empress Dowager's body was discovered, the characteristics could already be seen, it was poisoned?" Fan Xian said.

"Yes." Si Lili said, "Poison is also very rare, and you can rarely find it, but I happen to have seen it."

"Oh?" Fan Xian asked.

"It's Nanqing's poison." Si Lili said, "Master Fan should be very familiar with it. It smells like Crane Crown Red."

The biggest contributor to Hedinghong's turning into the Nanqing poison is Fan Xian. He is very proficient in debugging this poison. Of course, there are only two people in the world who can prepare this poison. One is Fei Jie and the other is Fan Xian. , but there are fewer people who know about it than those who know how to prepare poison.

"Well, so the suspect is locked. It should be someone from Nanqing in the Northern Qi Dynasty, such as me?" Fan Xian looked at Si Lili suspiciously and asked.

"That's not true." Si Lili said.

"Your method is really too stupid, what do you want me to say?" Fan Xian shook his head helplessly, "I have already given you a very good way, why don't you choose to trust me? "

"My concubine trusts Mr. Fan, that's why I told His Majesty what Mr. Fan told me." Si Lili said calmly.

Fan Xian raised his head and frowned at Si Lili, but he didn't speak.

He knew what it meant after Si Lili told the Northern Qi Emperor what he wanted to express.

Because of these words, Fan Xian had spoken to the Northern Qi Emperor once, and the original meaning of the Northern Qi Emperor at that time was to ask Fan Xian to convey this matter to Si Lili again. What is the reason for this? Fan Xian He didn't know it, but Fan Xian could feel that the emperor at that time still didn't trust Si Lili.

So now it seems that the doubts of the little Northern Qi emperor have been dispelled, and they also started to start preparing for this matter according to the plan given by Fan Xian.Fan Xian reckoned that the Empress Dowager's life would only last for a few days at most, so although he hadn't moved anything for the past two days, the Jin Yiwei and others in the entire Northern Qi Dynasty seemed to be crazy busy. catch up with the current situation.

Fortunately, caught up.

Si Lili sat in front of Fan Xian, "Master Fan, are you ready?"

Fan Xian looked at Si Lili in a low voice, "That's natural. I've made all the preparations since the moment I left for Northern Qi. I just hope that your Majesty the Emperor will not break his promise."

"Master Fan's move really shocked me. He wanted to use his own reputation to exchange for the stability of our regime in Northern Qi, so that the little girl would be very touched. I just don't know how it will benefit you." Si Li Li looked at Fan Xian.

"Being entrusted by others is just a matter of loyalty." Fan Xian smiled.

"In today's world, is there anyone from the Qing Kingdom who cares more about our Northern Qi government than Master Fan?" Si Lili asked in surprise with her mouth open. Her expression proved that she didn't know who the person behind her was. Fan Xian felt a little shocked, but this shock didn't stay on his face for a long time, it was fleeting.

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't have much to do with you, nor does it have much to do with Bei Qi." Fan Xian smiled.

"My lord puts your wealth and life into our hands like this. Are you really not afraid that His Majesty will prove your crime and drag you down?" Si Lili asked.

"Hahaha, of course I'm afraid." Fan Xian laughed, "But your emperor is more afraid of the mutiny in front of the palace. Uesugi Tiger led the [-] troops to seize the throne instead of attacking Nanqing? Your emperor is even more afraid. Are the deepest secrets in the palace being made public?"

"Hahaha." Si Lili followed suit with a smile, "My lord, you will lose your words if you talk too much. In the deep palace of the Northern Qi Dynasty, where are there any secrets?"

Just at this moment, there was a knock on the door. Si Lili immediately put the black scarf on his head, leaned on the chair without moving, and the next moment Fan Xian said, "Come in."

The maid walked in with a smile. Instead of looking at Si Lili, she said to Fan Xian, "My lord, dinner is ready."

"Oh? All right, let it go." Fan Xian said joyfully.

The maid put the food in front of Fan Xian, and then said, "My lord didn't say that there are guests coming, do you need to prepare more food?"

"No need, you go down." Fan Xian waved his hand, and the maid walked out.

After watching the maid go out, Fan Xian smiled and said to Si Lili, "Don't be so nervous."

"This maid is not bad, she has good eyesight." Si Lili smiled.

Fan Xian didn't respond to the topic, so he continued, "I like red bean rice, and the red bean rice in Northern Qi is a must."

"Oh? When was the first time Master Fan ate red bean rice?" Si Lili asked.

"A year ago, in the thatched cottage, in the countryside, I remember that bowl of breakfast was made by Begonia Duoduo." Fan Xian smiled.

"The memory is still fresh?" Si Lili asked.

"I'm impressed." Fan Xian replied.

Just when Si Lili was about to say something, Fan Xian put a big mouthful of rice into his mouth, chewed and said, "It's just a little hard to swallow, you know? When eating red bean rice, I couldn't be in a hurry. I was in a hurry, I choked on my food, so for the red bean rice, I chewed slowly and savored it carefully, so that I could eat well and not be afraid of being choked."

Si Lili never interrupted Fan Xian's words again, but quietly listened to Fan Xian's words.

"Only if you don't get choked, can you continue eating, right?" Fan Xian's smile was fully revealed.

Si Lili, who didn't understand what Fan Xian was talking about at all, looked at Fan Xian quietly. She didn't intend to interrupt Fan Xian at all. At this moment, Si Lili had already understood some things and understood some truths.

"Boys love red bean rice, right?" Fan Xian laughed.

This time, Fan Xian was silent.

And the next moment, there was the sound of hurried running outside, followed by the sound of opening the door. When the door was opened, Gundam appeared in front of Fan Xian and asked, "My lord, now..."

"Let them in," Fan Xian said.

"Ah?" Gundam looked at Fan Xian puzzled.

"Next, I'll leave everything to you. Don't let me down." Fan Xian ate, and finally said a word to Si Lili. Meal, eat cleanly.
