I made the villain right.
Chapter 144: I'm not looking down on you, but I can't look down on him
Early the next morning.
Shi Jin didn't see Fan Hua, and thought that he might have gone to find Du Xuan, so he went to look for him.
She had been trapped in Kyoto for several days, and she didn't know how her father and brother were doing in Fengyun Pavilion. She was always worried and planned to discuss with Fan Hua how to pass the message on.
At this time, Du Xuan was talking to Fan Hua in the room: "There is news from Yunchuan"
After saying that, Du Xuan handed the note to Fan Hua, who opened it and took a look.
It said: The poison for Shi's father and son has been cured, everything is fine in the pavilion, don't worry.
Fan Hua lowered his eyes and accidentally saw another note in Du Xuan's hand. He looked at him and asked, "What does that say?"
Du Xuan glanced at the note in his hand and said helplessly: "Ran Ke told me about some of his experiences in the pavilion."
Fan Hua didn't say anything, but looked at Du Xuan quietly, as if waiting for him to continue.
Du Xuan understood and said, "After the Shi family father and son detoxified, they knew that the master and his wife were trapped in Kyoto. They were very worried and wanted to come back to rescue them. Fortunately, they were stopped by Ran Ke, otherwise our sacrifice would have been in vain."
Fan Hua knew that his father-in-law was rather stubborn. Seeing that Ran Ke was able to restrain him, he asked with interest, "How did he persuade him to stop?"
"This..." Du Xuan touched his nose and hesitated.
Seeing Du Xuan's awkward expression, Fan Hua opened his lips and said, "Speak."
There is a deterrent power in the tone that makes people dare not disobey.
"In addition to appeasing the Shi family father and son, Ran Ke also lied that Luo Yi had the intention of rebellion, and asked the Shi family father and son to stay and guard Fengyun Pavilion for the master."
Fan Hua raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and then said: "This is indeed what he would do."
After lowering his eyes and thinking for a moment, Fan Hua seemed to understand why Ran Ke was able to persuade his father-in-law.
Given the current situation of Shi's father and son, Fengyun Pavilion is their last resort. If internal strife occurs in Fengyun Pavilion, they will have no chance of turning the situation around.
In addition, Shi Wei knew the power of Fengyun Pavilion and that Fengyun Pavilion was extremely important to him. Any unrest within Fengyun Pavilion would inevitably put Shi Jin and him in danger again.
"Oh, you scared me."
Shi Jin's voice suddenly sounded outside the door, interrupting Fan Hua's thoughts.
Fan Hua quickly got up, opened the door and walked out, but saw Shi Jin staring curiously at the cold Cang Qi who was standing on the steps.
Cang Qi saw Shi Jin looking at it. It opened its mouth slightly, and its yellow eyes flashed coldly, as if it was looking at some prey.
She looked away only after seeing Fan Hua and Du Xuan come out, wondering, "Does Cang Qi's appearance here mean that there is news from Fengyun Pavilion?"
"Well, the poison to my father-in-law and brother has been cured. They have been settled down. You can rest assured."
Shi Jin's mouth curled up: "Well, that's great."
This was exactly what she was concerned about. Seeing that her father and brother were safe and sound, she felt much more at ease.
Shi Jin's eyes drifted to Du Xuan. Seeing that he was already moving freely like a normal person, he couldn't help but sigh and asked with concern: "Are your injuries better?"
Du Xuan smiled and said, "Thank you for your concern, Madam. I have thick skin and flesh, and these are just flesh wounds. I just need to rest for a few more days."
Shi Jin smiled and praised casually: "Being strong is good, and your body recovers quickly."
He didn't notice that Fan Hua's face suddenly darkened.
Fan Hua felt uncomfortable. Although he remained calm on the surface, jealousy could still be heard from his words: "Since you are strong and have almost recovered, you should finish the task I asked you to do as soon as possible."
When Du Xuan heard this, a crack seemed to appear on his face. He didn't know why Fan Hua changed his expression.
Until his eyes swept over Shi Jin, he suddenly understood something and sighed helplessly: "Yes"
Shi Jin, who was standing by, felt a little sorry for Du Xuan. She said, "Ah Yu, you are too oppressive. Du Xuan's injury hasn't even healed yet and you've already assigned him a task."
Then, Fan Hua put his arm around Shi Jin's shoulders and pulled her away.
This sudden action made Shi Jin stunned. After she reacted, she realized that he was jealous.
Then she raised the corners of her mouth, a smile spread to her eyes, she snuggled in his arms, and whispered: "You can be jealous of this, aren't you afraid of being laughed at by your subordinates?"
Fan Hua directly covered Shi Jin's mouth and automatically muted her microphone.
Beside the fish pond at Prime Minister Qin's residence.
Qin Yixian was sitting on a throne and fishing. He stared at the calm water with a gloomy look in his eyes. Even the air was filled with a suffocating dullness.
Repeated failures made him feel extremely bad.
He searched almost every corner of Kyoto City, but could not find any trace of Fan Hua and Shi Jin. It was as if the two of them had evaporated into thin air, completely disappearing from their sight, and there was no way to trace any trace of them!
This made him feel more bored and frustrated than ever before.
In addition, since he learned yesterday that Fan Hua had the Sky-shaking Bomb in his hand, he felt vaguely uneasy.
Fengyun Pavilion is difficult to deal with already, and if he has the help of Thunder of Heaven, it will be extremely difficult to get rid of him.
But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that there was something fishy about this matter.
Why does Fan Hua have a thunder bomb in his hand?
You must know that the Sky-shaking Thunder is controlled and dominated by the royal family, King Jing'an Xu Yuanzhou. If you want to use the Sky-shaking Thunder, you must get the approval of King Jing'an.
He applied several times before being approved once.
Although the Sky-shaking Bomb is the exclusive magic weapon of the royal family, not everyone in the family can get it if they want, let alone give it to others.
Could it be possible that he could also refine it?
Qin Yixian thought about it for a while and immediately denied it.
In order to get the Thunder Bomb in his own hands, he secretly asked someone to develop and refine the Thunder Bomb. However, the refining process of the Thunder Bomb was complicated, time-consuming and labor-intensive, and extremely prone to failure. He spent many years and failed to refine it.
He thought that even Fan Hua couldn't do it, so the thunder bomb in his hand must have been obtained from somewhere else.
In this world, the only families who can refine thunderous bombs are the Huang family and the Li family.
Dating back to several decades ago, the Huang family banned the use of the Sky-shaking Bomb with a pretext, and then used the Li family's orders to force the Li family to hand over the refining method and threatened that they would never be able to refine it again.
I just don’t know if the Li family has been able to stick to their original intentions over the years?
Excluding the royal family, the only suspicious one is the Li family.
Qin Yixian was thinking about it, and the next moment, he waved his hand, and with a crisp "snap" sound, the bamboo pole in his hand broke.
The bamboo pole fell into the water, splashing a layer of ripples.
Qin Yixian looked at the lake, with a sinister look in his eyes.
At this time, someone came up to him from behind.
"Prime Minister Qin," Leng Yue called in a low voice.
When Qin Yixian heard the voice, the hostility in his eyes instantly dissipated, and he turned his cold eyes to Leng Yue: "How is the investigation going?"
Leng Yue lowered her head and said, "I checked the gift books of the Guangchusi in recent years and did not find any record of the glass bead. Could it be that the glass bead is not in there?"
Qin Yixian frowned, not very satisfied with Leng Yue's answer.
"If it has not been found in recent years, it can be traced back to the past ten years. Don't jump to conclusions."
"Yes," Leng Yue responded, and then said, "A group of people once said that they saw a group of suspicious people enter Fumeng Pavilion and never come out. After our people went in and searched carefully, they found nothing except a secret room inside."
When Qin Yixian heard about the secret room, his eyes lit up and he suddenly had a guess in his mind.
They searched almost the entire Kyoto but could not find Fan Hua and Shi Jin. It was very likely that they were hiding in some secret room or left through some secret passage, so their whereabouts were difficult to find.
"Send someone to carefully check Fan Mansion, Jiangjun Mansion and Fumeng Pavilion to see if there are any secret rooms or secret passages." Qin Yixian narrowed his eyes slightly: "Especially Fumeng Pavilion, even if you have to dig three feet underground, you must find them for me."
"Yes"
After a moment, Qin Yixian's eyes moved slightly, and he remembered his guess about the Li family. He turned around and told Leng Yue: "Also, check for me if Fan Hua has any relationship with Yunbohou Mansion."
"Yes," Leng Yue accepted the order.
Leng Yue thought of something, so she said, "The spy around the Sixth Princess reported that the Sixth Princess wanted to commit suicide last night. Fortunately, she was rescued in time and is now fine. His Majesty visited her and the two chatted in the room for a long time. I don't know what they talked about specifically."
"It seems that the spy we sent out has been exposed and is now imprisoned in the dungeon by His Majesty."
Qin Yixian lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then said, "Then let's have someone else keep an eye on them."
As soon as Leng Yue left, Wei Dong came to the pool and soon arrived in front of Qin Yixian.
Wei Dong bowed and said, "Prime Minister Qin, I have found out who planned the Baique Lane party."
Qin Yixian's eyes flickered, and a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes.
Then he asked in a very calm voice: "Who did it?"
"It was Feng Nanyi, the counselor beside the Fourth Prince. He was the one who arranged for the opera troupe of the Pear Garden to hold a parade, saying that it was to pray for blessings and ward off disasters. I went to the Fourth Prince's house to arrest Feng Nanyi and question him, but Feng Nanyi was not at the house. He fled because he was afraid of being punished."
Qin Yixian was stunned when he heard this. After a moment, he fixed his eyes on Wei Dong and asked doubtfully, "What is the attitude of the Fourth Prince towards this matter?"
"His Highness the Fourth Prince was very cooperative, claiming that he was not involved in the incident and that he was also harmed by Feng Nanyi and was seriously injured."
Qin Yixian heard this and smiled with an ambiguous smile. He asked with interest, "How was the Fourth Prince murdered?"
"On the night of the incident, Feng Nanyi suddenly had a conflict with the Fourth Prince. The two of them fought fiercely. During the fight, Feng Nanyi stabbed the Fourth Prince and then fled from the mansion."
"What was the conflict about?" Qin Yixian continued to ask.
Wei Dong lowered his head, not daring to look Qin Yixian in the eye, and whispered: "I dare not ask more about this."
Qin Yixian did not blame Wei Dong, but asked him: "Do you think this was planned by a counselor?"
Wei Dong seemed to notice something, but he was not in a hurry to reply. Instead, he wanted to see what Qin Yixian wanted to say next.
"Do you think that the Fourth Prince has nothing to do with this matter? Could the so-called serious injury be a self-torture trick?"
Wei Dong's heart tightened when he heard this.
After a moment, Wei Dong dared to speak: "It is indeed possible. I will arrest the Fourth Prince and bring him to justice." After that, Wei Dong was about to leave.
"Wait, I'll go with you." Qin Yixian stood up from his chair, "I'm afraid you can't control him."
Wei Dong's expression changed slightly when he heard this, but he still responded respectfully: "Okay"
When Qin Yixian passed by Weidong, he saw Weidong's dejected look. He seemed to see through Weidong's thoughts and patted Weidong on the shoulder.
"I'm not looking down on you, but I can't look down on him."
"I understand. Please rest assured, Prime Minister Qin, I will do my best to handle this matter." Wei Dong quickly stated his position.
After hearing this, Qin Yixian walked out with his hands behind his back, and Weidong followed closely behind him.
Qin Yixian had been having a lot of bad luck during this period, and he was suppressing a lot of anger in his heart. He just wanted to find someone to vent his anger to, and that person was Xu Wusheng. As for what the truth was, it no longer mattered.
