Chapter 123 [Life and Death Crisis]

Qingguo.

Kyoto.

Fan Mansion.

Fan Jian paced back and forth in the study, feeling a little anxious.

"Master..." Liu Ruyu was almost dazzled by him.

"Master, don't worry, Fan Xian will be fine.

After all, the only person Ku He wants to kill is the prince."

Liu Ruyu comforted.

Upon hearing this, Fan Jian felt overwhelmed.

"What are you talking about? Can a Grandmaster leave evidence after killing someone?
Since Fan Xian is on the boat, he will inevitably die."

This is what Fan Jian is worried about.

The Grand Master always ignores the law when doing things.

So, even if the whole world knew that he was the murderer.

However, it is still necessary to leave no evidence and no witnesses.

"Master, what should we do?" Liu Ruyu asked.

“What else can we do? In this world, the only one who can stop a Grand Master is a Grand Master.

But where can I find it now…"

After saying that, Fan Jian hurried out.

"Master, where are you going?"

"Enter the palace!"

Royal study room.

"Your Majesty, Si Nanbo requests to see you." Eunuch Hou reported.

"Let him in."

"Yes."

The voice came before Fan Jianren entered the imperial study.

"Your Majesty, the ship is about to dock. Kuhe..."

Before he could finish, Emperor Qing interrupted him.

"You seem to be more anxious than I am, but are you worried about your son or the crown prince?"

Fan Jian was choked by these words and said:

“Everyone is worried!”

Emperor Qing continued to sharpen his arrows, and said calmly:

"There's nothing to worry about."

"Your Majesty, Northern Qi will definitely not let go of this opportunity.

Haitang Duoduo, the saintly lady of Northern Qi, has already arrived in the south of the Yangtze River.

Grandmaster Ku He is missing now, I’m afraid…”

Fan Jian said anxiously.

"He's a grandmaster, he should at least have some dignity, right?" Emperor Qing still didn't look up.

"Even if he is a grandmaster, he is shameless!" Fan Jian said.

As soon as these words were spoken, Emperor Qing suddenly looked up.

He stared at Fan Jian for a long time and suddenly laughed.

"That makes perfect sense. The most shameless person in this world is indeed the Grandmaster!"

It is for this reason that he wants to eliminate all the great masters in the world.

Of course, this does not include himself.

"Then what do you want to do?"

"Send people to support." Fan Jian said.

After saying this, he glanced at Emperor Qing's expression and said:

"Your Majesty, isn't there a person in the palace..."

The words were not said explicitly, but the meaning was obvious.

"But I think the prince can turn danger into safety, what do you think?

Why, you don't believe him?"

Emperor Qing looked at Fan Jian with a smile.

Hearing this, Fan Jian was speechless.

“Your Majesty, the prince is indeed amazing and has repeatedly performed miracles.

Create possibilities out of the impossible.

However, the one we have to face this time is the Grand Master!
This is beyond human power.”

Fan Jian was not optimistic at all as to whether Li Chengqian could escape danger with his own strength this time.

At least in front of the Grand Master, no matter how many tricks His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has or how good he is at fighting, he has no power to resist.

"Don't be impatient, I'm not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?"

Emperor Qing really doesn't seem to be in a hurry at all.

Fan Jian sighed helplessly.

Lin House.

"My Lord, the ship is about to dock, aren't you in a hurry?" Yuan Hongdao asked.

As he spoke, he dropped a chess piece.

However, as soon as he made the move, Lin Ruofu regretted it.

"Why should I be anxious? Looking around, Gong'er is not on the boat, but remains on the island.

So, what do I have to worry about? " He said this lightly.

Yuan Hong couldn't help but twitch his eyebrows.

He is worthy of being the prime minister, he dares to say such words.

“When the warships returned to Beijing this time, Gong’er did not return but was left on the island by Li Chengqian.

He was deliberately trying to win my support and make me support him unconditionally.

I never realized before that this prince actually had such a method."

Lin Ruofu analyzed.

Yuan Hongdao was silent for a moment, "But if the prince dies, I'm afraid the second young master will never come back."

"How can a dead person interfere in the affairs of the living?" Lin Ruofu smiled.

Therefore, he really didn't care about Li Chengqian's life or death this time.

"Sir Prime Minister, do you think that the prince can escape danger this time?" Yuan Hongdao asked again.

In the yard, Dabao was feeding the fish again.

He kept running around the bathtub and seemed very happy.

When people see it, they can't help but think of entertaining themselves, which is also a good idea.

“If Ku He shows up, the prince will definitely die in this game!
Unless the palace sends out a Grand Master, there is no way to survive."

Lin Ruofu said it with certainty.

There is no doubt about the power of the Grand Master.

There are only a handful of masters above the ninth rank in the world.

However, even nine ninth-grade masters may not be a match for the grandmaster.

"If the crown prince dies this time, the second prince will no longer have any rivals." Yuan Hongdao said.

The second prince's residence.

"Your Highness, what do you think about the situation in Jiangnan?"

The scholar and counselor stood outside the pavilion and bowed slightly.

In the pavilion, the second prince ate too much and was sweating profusely.

spicy.

When eating hotpot, spicy food is a must.

Fan Wujiu was sitting on the steps reading a book, carrying two swords on his back.

"If Ku He takes action, the prince will have little chance of survival."

The second prince said this and continued eating.

If the prince died, he would not be able to survive.

So, this might be the last meal.

So, let’s make it extra spicy this time.

Really spicy!

He has already sent Xie Bian to the prince.

However, if the Grand Master takes action personally, it seems that it will not make any difference whether there is one more Xie Bian or one less Xie Bian.

"Your Highness, once the prince... you will have no opponent." said the scholar.

The second prince glanced at him and didn't respond.

But he thought in his heart, you know nothing. If the prince dies, he won't be able to survive either.

Of course, this cannot be said out loud.

In the pot, the steam is boiling and the food is very spicy.

"Would you like to eat something?" asked the second prince.

The scholar shook his head.

Fan Wujiu seemed not to hear and continued reading.

Very focused.

When I got closer, I saw that what was in her hand was not some book of sages, but Jin Ping Mei.

"I'm afraid the Crown Prince will not be able to escape this time..."

The second prince couldn't help but mutter in his heart.

There is indeed a grandmaster in the palace, but he cannot leave easily.

Otherwise, Emperor Qing’s safety would be difficult to guarantee.

After all, Si Gu Jian had tried to assassinate Emperor Qing more than once.

The closest one was only a hundred steps away.

Nowadays, many people know about what happened in Jiangnan.

Therefore, it is not impossible that Si Gu Jian and Ku He have joined forces to lure the tiger away from the mountain, but their real intention is not to kill them.

Therefore, the second prince was certain that Emperor Qing would not send that grandmaster to take action.

In this way, Li Chengqian will have to deal with the situation in Jiangnan on his own.

But, that is the Grand Master!
Therefore, the second prince felt that the crown prince was really going to be in trouble this time.

Near Kyoto.

Chen Pingping has returned, but has not entered Beijing.

"The ship is about to dock, but given the current situation, once it docks, I'm afraid..."

Shadow stood behind him, pushing Chen Pingping's wheelchair while talking about things in Jiangnan.

Chen Pingping suddenly waved his sleeves and said:

"How about we play another round?"

"No, I'm really quitting this time!" Shadow answered firmly.
