Chapter 207 Fan Xian Sends His Daughter Away
"Who did it?"
Fan Xian was about to go crazy.
"Is it possible that they were not taken away, but left on their own initiative?"
Shadow said coldly.
"How is this possible? They are mother and son and have no one to rely on. Even if they go to seek refuge with relatives and friends, they have nowhere to go."
Fan Xian frowned.
"But judging from the traces at the scene, that's the case."
Shadow took out a report.
"According to the instructions of the dean, the group of people who are best at investigating cases in the hospital have already inspected the scene, and this is the conclusion they came to.
There are no signs of destruction or fighting there. If that's the case, it can still be said that it was done by a martial artist with high martial arts skills, leaving them unable to resist.
But the strange thing is that their clothes and toiletries have disappeared, as if they took the initiative to pack."
"Master Shadow, this doesn't make sense either.
If they really left on their own initiative, who knocked out the guards?"
Wang Qinian asked.
"I don't know, but the traces at the scene can't be false."
Such a contradictory situation made Fan Xian feel very confused.
"Perhaps it was done by an acquaintance who didn't want to show up in public."
Chen Pingping made some guesses and said, "We can make such an assumption.
Gen Zijing has a powerful friend who is deeply trusted by Gen Zijing's wife and children, but he can't stand their poverty and doesn't want anyone to know his existence.
So this person secretly met with Gen Zijing's wife and children, and the mother and daughter took the initiative to leave Kyoto with him."
"Gen Zijing's identity information and social network must be well known by the Inspection Bureau.
If there is such a person, how could the Inspection Bureau not know?"
"This..."
Chen Pingping hesitated and said, "There are things that the Inspection Bureau doesn't know. Leave this matter to me. I will help you find out.
For you, the diplomatic mission to Northern Qi is the most important thing."
After they worked together to overthrow the princess, Emperor Qing entrusted Fan Xian with an important task and asked him to go to Northern Qi. On the surface, it was to exchange hostages.
But the real purpose was to discuss the alliance between the two countries and fight against the Tiansha Palace.
"Okay."
Fan Xian agreed. It would be more appropriate to hand this matter over to the Inspection Institute.
"Tiansha Palace... Tell me, why did Tiansha Palace want to kill Yan Xiaoyi?"
Chen Pingping changed the subject, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes.
"According to your description at the time, Yan Xiaoyi's arrow could have hit you.
If Tiansha Palace really just wanted the key, it could have taken you down after Yan Xiaoyi made his move.
Why bother to arrange two Tiansha Palace assassins to assassinate Yan Xiaoyi?"
In Chen Pingping's opinion, this matter was full of doubts.
Even for a terrifying force like Tiansha Palace, there are only nine Tiansha-level assassins.
"It's strange that you say that."
Fan Xian's expression was slightly stern.
"It can't be to save me, right?"
"No, it's to kill Yan Xiaoyi."
Chen Pingping slowly closed his eyes.
"Not long ago, the Third Prince proposed a strategy of forming alliances and gathering the power of the world to attack the Tiansha Palace in the court, which made His Majesty very happy.
Privately, His Majesty, I, Prime Minister Lin, and Qin Ye were also discussing the specific rules.
But at this juncture! The Tiansha Palace killed Yan Xiaoyi!"
"What does this mean?"
Fan Xian was puzzled and did not understand what Chen Pingping meant.
Shadow said coldly: "Don't you think that Tiansha Palace is deliberately provoking His Majesty?
The Third Prince's plan is an open conspiracy, because Tiansha Palace is a killer organization, and it has a considerable reputation in the world. It can't be said that its reputation is very bad.
But it can't be said that it is very good, it is intimidating. Based on this tone, it is easy for Northern Qi and Qing to completely discredit Tiansha Palace.
And Tiansha Palace can't make any excuses, because they are still the killer organization.
When people's inner fear reaches the extreme, people in the world will spontaneously reject Tiansha Palace. All forces will unite, warriors, armies, grandmasters... together, and Tiansha Palace will hardly have room to survive.
In theory, with Tiansha Palace's intelligence network, they can't be unaware of His Majesty's plan.
According to common sense, breaking up into pieces, hiding for a while, and waiting for the limelight to pass is the strategy that Tiansha Palace should adopt.
But they did the opposite."
Wang Qinian was horrified.
"If that's the case, Tiansha Palace probably believes that it can be the enemy of the world!"
Is this self-confidence or arrogance? !
"Maybe."
Chen Pingping said: "We only need to observe the next move of Tiansha Palace to know the answer.
If they really want to anger the world, the ninth-grade masters of all major forces may be assassinated."
Fan Xian thought about it and said: "Maybe not.
Perhaps Tiansha Palace knows that its strength is not good enough and it can't crack this conspiracy, so it plans to eliminate the high-end combat power of all parties as much as possible, so it dares to do so."
Chen Pingping smiled and said: "What you said makes sense.
There is one last thing, which is your marriage with Lin Wan'er.
The third prince and I have already agreed to cancel your marriage.
Do you have any objections?"
Fan Xian said indifferently: "It would be best if it can be cancelled. I don't care about the financial power of the inner treasury."
Chen Pingping raised his thumb and smiled: "As long as you agree, leave the rest to us."
"You?"
"Yes."
…………
The next day.
Chen Pingping, Fan Jian and Lin Xiang came to the imperial study to meet Emperor Qing.
"You old guys are all dissatisfied with Wan'er's marriage."
Emperor Qing snorted coldly.
"We dare not!"
The three people hurriedly said.
Emperor Qing looked at Fan Jian: "Others are fine, but you personally asked for this marriage for Fan Xian.
Why, do you regret it now?"
"A forced melon is not sweet. For this matter, Fan Xian has expressed his dissatisfaction to me many times, making the house restless. I have been really troubled these days."
Fan Jian had a complicated expression.
Bai Jing asked Meng Jiang to heal Fan Xian twice, and Fan Jian did not want to break up the couple.
When Qingmei was alive, she advocated free love and equality between men and women, and hated the so-called parents' orders and matchmakers' words.
Maybe he was really wrong about this matter.
"What about you two? What are you doing?"
"Wan'er and the third prince love each other. Please help me, Your Majesty!"
"I want Fan Xian to take over. I'm afraid that his energy will be dispersed in the future. Let's let someone else take charge of the inner treasury."
Lin Ruofu represents the civil service system, Chen Pingping is the Inspection Institute, and Fan Jian is an old friend. After all, they have old feelings. The three of them asked for orders together, and Emperor Qing had no choice.
'Meng Jiang only listens to the orders of the third brother. The war is imminent, so we can't let her run away again... Well, give the third brother a little sweetness. '
Emperor Qing waved his hand and said angrily: "Get out of here!"
The three smiled at each other, knowing that the matter was settled.
…………
Soon, Fan Xian was summoned by Emperor Qing. Because his left foot stepped into the palace first, Emperor Qing was very unhappy and canceled the marriage that was originally promised to him.
