I made the villain right.

Chapter 262 Because she is worth it

Two quarters of an hour later, Fan Hua went to Yunbohou Mansion because he received a summons from King Shengqing.

In the mansion of Yunbohou.

When King Shengqing saw Fan Hua arriving, he immediately took a few steps forward to greet him with a hint of eagerness.

"Come, Nannan." King Shengqing said in a low and intimate voice.

Inside the room were the elite backbones of Fengyun Pavilion. They all had tall postures and kind faces. When they saw him coming, they all looked at him.

Fan Hua slowly scanned everyone's faces, observing everything calmly.

There was a hint of scrutiny and doubt in his eyes.

Then he asked in confusion, "Father, why did you come to see me?"

King Shengqing smiled and said, "The banquet that day was too hasty, and I didn't have time to introduce you to several colleagues from Qianshuang Pavilion."

As he spoke, he pointed to a middle-aged man in a black robe.

The man had a calm and elegant temperament, and his eyes revealed a majesty that had been accumulated over the years.

"This is Mo Ruo, who is quite famous in the martial arts world. I have been in Kyoto for several years, and he is in charge of Qianshuang Pavilion. You can call him Uncle Mo."

"Uncle Mo." Fan Hua called softly.

Hearing this, Mo Ruo smiled slightly and praised, "Pavilion Master, your son is just like you, handsome and elegant, truly a leader among men."

Hearing the polite compliments, Fan Hua remained calm and just nodded slightly.

When King Shengqing heard such praise, the smile on his face became even more intense, and his eyes were filled with pride and satisfaction.

Then, King Shengqing pointed at Bai Jin, who was wearing gray brocade clothes.

"This is Bai Jin. He is the steward of Qianshuang Pavilion. His identity in Beijing is the shopkeeper of Yunshuijian."

Bai Jin's eyes were narrow and deep, revealing a shrewd look.

Fan Hua had met Bai Jin and Pei Luoheng before.

Now that he knew that these two people had a relationship with Shi Jin, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.

Once upon a time, he poisoned Shi Jin.

One who had rumors about Shi Jin.

"Uncle Bai." Fan Hua raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a seemingly gentle smile. He reached out and held Bai Jin's hand. The strength was just right, but it made people feel uneasy.

"I heard that Master Bai once poisoned someone. Don't do this again in the future. People's minds are unpredictable. Be careful not to make others hate you."

His voice was gentle, but contained a hint of unmistakable warning.

The faces of the people present changed when they heard this.

King Shengqing frowned slightly. He knew what Fan Hua meant. He was feeling sorry for Shi Jinming.

But the others didn't know, and they looked confused and felt it was a little strange.

The person involved, looking at the smile on Fan Hua's face, felt terrified, but he still faced it with gritted teeth.

His face and hands were stiff, and there was some confusion in his eyes.

He sensed that there was something else in the other person's words, which also contained a warning, but he racked his brains and could not figure out how he had offended the prince.

Bai Jin forced himself to remain calm, quickly pulled his hand back, and gave a dry laugh, trying to cover up the embarrassing situation.

He quickly said, "Your Highness is right."

Seeing that the situation was not good, King Shengqing was about to introduce Pei Luoheng to divert everyone's attention.

However, Fan Hua seemed to have predicted his intention and said first: "I have seen this senior brother before in Yunshuijian."

Everyone's eyes then fell on Pei Luoheng.

He pursed his lips slightly, his eyes showing a hint of surprise.

"It is true. I never thought that the prince still remembered me."

"Of course." Fan Hua looked directly at Pei Luoheng, his eyes deep and unfathomable, and said in a cold voice.

Pei Luoheng's heart couldn't help but shudder, and he wondered secretly why this prince looked at him with a hint of hostility.

Where does this hostility come from?

He couldn't figure it out, so he just dealt with it, with a faint smile on his lips, but the smile had not yet reached his eyes.

Seeing this, the Saint King smiled meaningfully and said, "So that's how it is. It seems like you two are really destined to meet. Luo Heng is my disciple and the senior brother of Qianshuang Pavilion."

After that, he turned sideways and pointed to the woman beside him, "This is Senior Sister Xie Ru.

Fan Hua's gaze slid towards Xie Ru, and he saw a smile on her pretty face. She had a strong temperament and her eyes revealed a heroic spirit that was no less than that of a man.

He just nodded slightly at her and said nothing more.

Xie Ru's eyes flickered with confusion and concern: "Junior Sister Shi, why didn't the prince come with you? We haven't seen each other for a long time."

"She is busy with other important matters and cannot come." Fan Hua said without changing his expression.

King Shengqing's gaze slowly swept over these young men, with a hint of tenderness in his eyes.

"You young talents should have many similar interests. You may want to visit each other more often in the future to enhance your friendship."

"Yes, Master," Pei Luoheng and Xie Ru said in unison.

After a while, the Holy King asked Fan Hua to stroll around the palace with him.

When they reached a secluded corner of the courtyard, the Holy King saw that there was no one around, his expression froze, and he spoke:

"Nannan, on the day of the banquet, a female disciple of our Qianshuang Pavilion was murdered. A silver needle was taken from her body, and it had the logo of your Fengyun Pavilion. Do you know who it was?"

Fan Hua looked determined and said bluntly, "It's me."

King Shengqing had guessed it was him before, but he still wanted to hear it from his own mouth.

Now seeing him being so straightforward, he frowned slightly.

He still firmly believed in his heart that Fan Hua would not kill people for no reason, so he asked, "Why?"

Fan Hua's face was stern, and he said in a decisive voice: "Shi Jin is my bottom line. I will never allow anyone to hurt her, not even myself. And everything Lin Mu did was harmful to her. How can I let her go?"

Fan Hua's decisive words made King Shengqing's expression change.

With his attitude towards Shi Jin, I'm afraid he would even risk his life for her.

King Shengqing said helplessly: "Nannan, why did you do this for her?"

When Shi Jin's face appeared in Fan Hua's mind, his eyes softened a little.

His tone was firm: "Because she is worth it."

Upon hearing this, the Holy King was speechless for a moment.

Lin Mu is Bai Jin's disciple, and he also needs to give him an explanation.

"Even so, we shouldn't kill him. Just give him a slight punishment to serve as a warning to others."

"Father, have you forgotten that I am from Fengyun Pavilion? I have always been ruthless and merciless in my actions."

Fan Hua's expression was cold and hard, revealing a sense of stubbornness and unruliness.

King Shengqing listened to Fan Hua declare his code of conduct, remained silent, and sighed in his heart.

I couldn't help but think: This child has been living outside since he was young, and grew up in such a complex and dangerous place like Fengyun Pavilion. It is understandable that he has developed such a rebellious character.

I want to get close to him and cultivate a father-son relationship, but I really don't know where to start.

In a place like Fengyun Pavilion, killing people might be a common occurrence for them.

After all, Lin Mu was an outsider. Moreover, he had made the mistake first and offended his weak spot. It seemed expected that he would kill him.

We have finally found this child, and we must cherish this lost and regained father-son relationship, and we must not let this matter of Lin Mu hurt the relationship between us.

As for Platinum, he had no choice but to find a suitable excuse to shirk his responsibility.

As for building familiarity with others, he'd better ask someone for advice.

Fan Hua saw that King Shengqing was silent, as if he was thinking about some difficult problem, with a frown on his face.

His eyes suddenly dimmed.

Does his father think that he is a very bad person?

Do you regret meeting him?

Thinking of this, he felt a little annoyed.

After a moment, he pursed his lips and suppressed the waves in his heart.

He bowed and said in a deep voice: "Father, if there is nothing else today, I will take my leave first."

"Go." King Shengqing came to his senses and waved his hand, signaling him to leave.

Fan Hua turned around slowly, and his departing back revealed a sense of haste and hurry, as if he wanted to escape from this situation that made him feel uneasy and bored as soon as possible.

When Fan Hua was walking in the corridor, he unexpectedly met Pei Luoheng and Bai Jin.

Stunned for a moment.

No one knew how to start.

Fan Hua nodded slightly at them and walked straight past them.

Suddenly he seemed to think of something, paused, turned around immediately, looked at Pei Luoheng's back and said:

"Brother Pei, please stay for now!"

Pei Luoheng's figure paused slightly, as if he was frozen by the sudden shout.

He turned around slowly, with a hint of doubt and uneasiness in his eyes, and asked softly: "Prince, what's the matter?"

Fan Hua took a few steps forward, did not say anything, just glanced at Bai Jin.

Fan Hua walked forward quickly, but did not speak immediately. He just glanced at Bai Jin who was standing beside him intentionally or unintentionally.

There was a hint in his eyes, as if indicating his desire to talk to Pei Luoheng alone.

Bai Jin understood immediately and smiled: "Luo Heng, I'll go find your uncle Mo, you two can talk slowly."

Bai Jin said and walked away, and saw Bai Jin's figure walking away.

Fan Hua then spoke: "Recently I have heard false rumors about my wife deliberately seducing you."

Pei Luoheng's face changed, and he quickly denied it: "There is absolutely no such thing, the Crown Prince's Concubine and I are innocent."

"I know her very well, and I have never had the slightest suspicion or suspicion. But outsiders do not know the truth and slander her without reason. This matter concerns her reputation and innocence, so I hope Brother Pei can come forward to clarify these unfounded rumors and give her justice."

Fan Hua said this sincerely, and from his words, one could see how seriously he took this matter.

Pei Luoheng lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, then raised his eyes and looked at Fan Hua firmly, and nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, my lord, I will definitely clarify this matter and clear the name of the lord's wife."

When Fan Hua heard this, a look of gratitude appeared on his face.

He clasped his hands together, bowed to Pei Luoheng, and said sincerely: "I would like to thank Senior Brother Pei for his help."

"You don't have to be so polite, my Lord. It's my duty." Pei Luoheng said politely.

"I have something else to do, so I'll leave first."

After Fan Hua said this, he walked away.

Seeing this, Bai Jin came out from the darkness of the corridor, walked up to him, and asked in confusion, "What does the prince want to see you for?"

"Let me clarify the false rumors about me and the Crown Princess."

After Pei Luoheng finished speaking, a light flashed through his mind in an instant, and he suddenly realized.

"Now I finally understand why he is hostile to me. It is because of these ridiculous rumors."

Thinking of Fan Hua's words and actions just now, a hint of emotion unconsciously appeared on his face.

"The prince seems to be different from what I imagined. He is not cold and heartless. He has deep feelings for Junior Sister Shi. He personally came to me to clarify the rumors for her."

Bai Jin listened to Pei Luoheng's words, as if he was inspired by something, and couldn't help muttering to himself: "No wonder..."

His thoughts drifted back to the past, when he had poisoned young Shi Jin long ago.

Now that I think about it, Fan Hua mentioned the poisoning incident today for no apparent reason. Could it be that he already knew the truth?

Thinking of this, Bai Jin's expression suddenly became solemn, with a hint of uneasiness and worry in his eyes.

Is he trying to take revenge on me?

Just then, King Shengqing walked towards them and signaled Bai Jin to follow him to the side.

King Shengqing calmly explained: "The investigation results are clear. Lin Mu's death by poisoning was a revenge killing."

Bai Jin looked puzzled and asked, "Vengeance? There is the Fengyun Pavilion logo on the silver needle. Was it done by someone from Fengyun Pavilion?"

King Shengqing responded calmly: "I have confirmed with Nan Nan that the logo on it was forged. The murderer disguised himself as someone from Fengyun Pavilion and sneaked into the mansion and murdered Lin Mu."

He paused for a moment and said thoughtfully, "I guess this may have something to do with Xu Wuchen. I think he intends to sow discord between Fengyun Pavilion and Qianshuang Pavilion."

When the Holy King told this lie, he looked calm and composed, without any flaws.

After hearing this, Bai Jin accepted the explanation without further investigation.
