Chapter 288： visitor

"Okay, let's talk about the topic first." Ning Qianshi patted his palms, "If you haven't rested for a night, you should be exhausted. Let's go back to the residence and rest. When His Royal Highness ascends the throne, this ceremony will also It has come to a successful conclusion."

He didn't want to let himself have a deeper understanding of the ancient tomb. Xia Fan realized that the importance of the Yongwang's tomb might still be above the secrets of Yongchao itself.

"I have one last question. If I become a core member of the Privy Council, what do I need to do in the future?"

"Not if," Ning Qianshi corrected, "You are already one of our recognized core members. As for what you are going to do... the seven stars and six countries have their own tasks, you can choose what you like to do. If you don't If you know what you are good at, you can also ask Girl He'er. She can help you figure out the best solution. In short, the main purpose of the Privy Council is to unify the six countries as soon as possible and fill the power gap of the family."

"Hey boy, don't you have not made up your mind to become one of us?" Qian Loulou laughed, "don't look at the six nations, but the level of magic skills has not risen but declined over the past century. The threat from overseas can be described as It’s getting bigger and bigger, you don’t want to see the mainland fail in the end, right?"

"That's definitely not what my generation wanted. It's just...changes are too fast, and some are difficult to adapt."

"Really? Then I'm relieved." He patted him on the shoulder dryly, "Boy, I am optimistic about you."

Xia Fan looked at the others, and everyone's eyes showed approval and encouragement. Even the layman on the cloud Baizhan, who had been sullen, nodded slightly to him.

If he hadn't gone to Jinxia for his post, and hadn't worked with Princess Guangping, maybe he would have another idea at this moment.

It's just that Xia Fan knew in his heart that the Privy Council might entrust him with important tasks, but it would never be as unreserved as the princess.

Jinxia looked weak, but the seeds of the future had already been planted. Once this power grew up, it would sooner or later become an unshakable big tree.

...

Back at Wanjing Building, the partners who had been waiting for nearly a whole day immediately surrounded him.

"Why are you back now?" Li lied to him and said, "Obviously the palace was captured in the morning, and it took so long to solve a prince? You will not be confused by the rhetoric of the second prince, and then you have reached something ulterior. Agreement?"

"So, has Ning Qianshi succeeded in usurping the throne?" Luo Qing's focus was on order. "You won't... also become the initiator of this palace coup, right?"

"Whatever it is, as long as it comes back safely." Qianyan looked around Xia Fan, probably to check whether he was injured, "Now we can go back to Jinxia?"

"Back to Jinxia, ​​Qianzhi wants to eat ice!"

"Meow----!"

The cat demon also joined in, and the room was so lively for a while.

"This matter is a bit complicated, I'll just say it all together." Xia Fan first quieted everyone down, then picked up the communication instrument, and told the people in the room and the people in Jinxia City all the information he had heard in the palace. Ning Wanjun. "...That's almost the case. In short, the Six Nations will soon become history, and the Privy Council, as the core organ of the new kingdom, will control everything behind the scenes."

There was a brief silence in the room.

Probably the news is too shocking and everyone is still in shock.

After a while, Ning Wanjun came back to her senses, "So the prince and the second prince will be enthroned soon, and the other will be the controller behind the court?"

"You can think so."

"This... how is it possible!" Ning Wanjun's voice was a little excited, "Why did the two of them make Qi Guo disappear? If even Qi Guo doesn't exist, what should I do?"

Xia Fan was silent for a while, he could understand the feelings of the other party-the goal of the princess's revenge was to murder the mother's concubine, and the way was to make their hopeful son miss the throne, or to pull the head off the throne. But Qi Kingdom will no longer exist, so the King of Qi Kingdom will naturally no longer be the emperor.

The women who knew all this would not be so distressed when facing the princess's revenge.

Xia Fan glanced at the "audience" behind him, and gestured at them.

Everyone understood, and quickly walked out of the room.

Only then did he speak, "But the two are still standing at the highest point of Qiguo's power. The second prince's status is even higher than that of the previous emperor. You don't have to worry about revenge without a goal.

"But the purpose of the Privy Council is to unify the six countries. I thought...you would support this change."

"Of course I support it, provided that they can accommodate a Jinxia city." Xia Fan said disapprovingly. "The Privy Council obviously does not want to spend more time on those opponents. Direct elimination is the most efficient choice. The frontier guarding Leizhou is One of them. In the face of such integration, if you give up your own armed forces, you will undoubtedly put your life in the hands of the other party."

"What are you talking about?" The voice over there suddenly shook, "The secret man behind the frame of the border army is the Privy Council?"

"At least the prince said so personally. Moreover, if the real murderer is the Privy Council, all questions will make sense-for them, losing Leizhou, Suzhou, or even the entire northwestern border is not a matter of concern, because the countries It has become one in their eyes."

"It turns out—is that the case?" Ning Wanjun's tone suddenly became gloomy, as if she had gritted her teeth and said, "Will you return to Jinxia?"

"Of course, the Privy Council does not have so many restrictions on the core personnel. After the enthronement ceremony is over, I will find an excuse to leave Gyeonggi."

Xia Fan never likes to persuade people to give up revenge. After all, the law of nature is cycle and retribution is unhappy. If it is not for worrying that Luo's identity will be slightly exposed and subsequent plans will change, he would like to find an opportunity to sneak the other party into the palace. Let the Fourth Prince and Luo Yufei face the anger of the listener.

"Xia Fan..." There was a pause, "Thank you."

This seems to be the first time Ning Wanjun said thanks to him.

"You're polite, we are also ants on the same boat anyway-no, we should be firm revolutionary partners. This support is just a matter of effort."

"You're talking strange things again When Xia Fan smiled and was about to reply, a loud knock on the door suddenly came from the aisle.

Then the door of the inner room was pushed open, and Li probe warned him, "It is the green sword of the Privy Council, and there is no sign of Xin Wu around!"

Not long after returning from the palace, a high-rank alchemist came to visit him, and he didn't pass the messenger in advance? Xia Fan frowned and said, "Here is an alchemist visiting, and we will talk later." Then he interrupted the communication and quickly put the audio instrument into it. After confirming that there were no flaws in the room, he walked to the room unhurriedly. By the door, "coming."

Opening the door of the wing room, standing outside was the "lock weaver" Yan Qing.

"So it was you," he pretended to be slightly surprised, "could there be anything the second prince forgot to explain?"

"It has nothing to do with the second prince." Yan Qing's gaze penetrated him and fell into the room behind him, "I just want to see someone."

"Who?" Xia Fan had an answer in his heart.

Sure enough, the other party replied slowly, "That girl named Li."
