Heavenly Dao Formula Chapter 268: Help

Combined with the people's remarks, Xia Fan also understood the situation outside the palace that night.

The prince was assassinated almost in front of thousands of people, so the news spread extremely quickly. When it reached the Wanjing Tower, the floating lights had not even gone out.

Li Ben planned to go to the palace to find out, but Luo gently stopped him. According to the latter's understanding, after this happened, the palace's alert level would increase exponentially. If there is still a slight gap to dive into, now it is definitely a choice to snag the net.

The facts were just as Luo Qing expected. The people on the street were quickly cleared by the Forbidden Army. Patrol guards appeared at the corners of the streets, and even the roofs of some houses began to have crossbowmen in place. Once they leave the residence in vain, they will undoubtedly become the most visible target.

Therefore, Li let go to the palace.

Although the cat can't talk, its IQ can understand and implement the "master" intent.

Finally, according to the rolling feedback, there was no strong "bloody atmosphere" around the Palace Square-this means that the assassination was only targeted at the Prince, and there was no disturbance or suppression at the scene. In the midnight of the abruptly halted Lantern Festival, this was a piece of calming news. With the advanced divination above, everyone decided to wait one night and make a decision based on tomorrow's situation.

After staying up all night, everyone waited for news from Xinwu.

"So the prince himself is safe and sound?" Qianyan asked.

"Yes. Otherwise, I guess it would not be so easy to release people over there."

"It's a pity." Luo said softly with a little regret.

Xia Fan quickly glanced behind him--fortunately, Xin Wu didn't follow him into the house.

"This is a bit strange," Fang Xiandao pondered for a moment. "The prince is the first heir to the kingdom of Qi, and he is personally recognized by the holy. The Privy Council has no reason to trouble him, so it can only be attributed to the assassin. But...why did you choose to be on the Lantern Festival? Not to mention that it is easy to reveal your whereabouts, and there is no lack of guards around the prince, and even this person did not even anticipate the life-saving artifact."

"No matter what the reason is, the Privy Council must be in trouble." Qianyan smiled a little, "The six parts of the court are not compatible with the Privy Council. Now it is undoubtedly an excellent opportunity to beat each other."

"Anyway, it has nothing to do with Jinxia, ​​we just need to wait for the result." Luo Qing said disapprovingly.

"I don't know how long the lockdown will last. It would be fine if it ends sooner." Fang Yanni still had some lingering fears.

"By the way, the Yuyi you met at the Wandeng Banquet, did you mention the specific content of the ceremony?" Li changed the subject.

Xia Fan shook his head, "That guy is very tight-lipped, he will know when he speaks."

"So they are really just eating a meal when they meet you?"

"I also have this question, but it seems to be the case."

"Chichi has a problem, does Yui look great?" the girl interjected.

"How do I put it..." Xia Fan thought, "I feel like a very ordinary middle-aged man, 35 or 6 years old. Apart from the roughness, there is nothing special about it."

"Ordinary?" Fang Xiandao hummed, "The other party is a first-rank official in the Privy Council. People who can climb to this position have proven themselves by **** deeds. If you have to deal with him in the future, you still It’s better to be cautious."

"Master, are you caring about others?"

"I am thinking of Fang's future!"

Xia Fan couldn't help but twitched the corner of his mouth.

Rather than saying that Yuyi is "dry", the words of another Qingjian "Jushi on the cloud" make him more concerned, especially the sentence "The ceremony is not a child's play, it is related to the future of the nations"-Could it be Qiguo Is the internal ceremony concocted by the Privy Council related to other kingdoms?

Not only that, this person also mentioned a strange term.

"Thousands of words," he looked at the living fossil in the room, "have you ever heard of the fact that there is such a post as an envoy in the Privy Council?"

Qianyan shook his head, "What is that?"

"Listening to their tone, this person seems to have a higher status than Yuyi."

She thought about it for a while and still denied it, "The division of Yuyi Qingjian guardianship can be traced back to the Yongwang period, but at that time the title was more representative of ability than merit. Later, people just inherited this name. No matter. I have never heard of this official position before or after the establishment of the Privy Council."

Xia Fan nodded. It seems that this question will not know the answer until the ceremony begins.

"Ah... there's something else." Li suddenly remembered something, "Don't forget to report to the princess later. Yesterday she took the initiative to call and ask."

Uh-Xia Fan's expression suddenly froze. He forgot about this incident last night and said that he would report the news every day, but something went wrong on the third day.

Although it is considered force majeure.

"The person who picked you up, don't you plan to leave?" Luo gently leaned against the window and said, "The carriage is still parked at the gate, and there is no breath of him in the carriage."

"Really?"

Xia Fan looked out of the inn with some surprise, then walked to the door of the wing and opened the sliding door, only to see the messenger staying in place, not leaving.

"Master Xia," Xin Wu said, "I have something to tell you."

After introducing him into the hall, Xia Fan motioned, "What's the matter?"

He suddenly bowed down, "I also ask Master Xia to help the Privy Council find out the truth, to prevent Xiao Xiao from turning the world upside down and profiting from it!"

"Wait..." Xia Fan was startled, "Are you talking about me?"

"There is no second person besides you~IndoMTL.com~"

"Get up first."

"If you don't agree--"

Xia Fan didn’t wait for him to finish, and pulled him off the ground, “Sit down and say. This is the Privy Council of Gyeonggi. You asked me to find out the truth in Jinxia City. What's more? This is not something I can help if I want to help, right?"

"You are indeed just a hundred-edged sword in name, but you already have the potential to become a core member in the Privy Council. This is not something that you can get by changing your official rank." Xin Wu insisted, "If it is normal, let There are naturally doubts about your help in the investigation of the general government, but now most of the alchemists in Shangyuancheng have rushed to the two places of Su and You, leaving behind the three in Gyeonggi. In addition to the assassination yesterday, the adults and the hundred people have been restricted from freedom. , Trapped in the palace. If you want to choose a person to take over the overall situation, only you are the most suitable!"

"In addition, this is not my own thought." He raised his voice a little, "After I learned of the incident in the palace last night, I secretly contacted my colleagues who were hiding in the dark--they despite their abilities The level and level are very limited, but it is agreed that the reserve core members will instruct them. There are 32 alchemists in total. As long as you nod your head and agree, they will all become your helpers."
