Emperor Yu slowly picked up the tea cup on the dragon table, put it to his lips and took a sip, looking at Ning Fan's expression calmly!
He was very curious. The second child had never been involved in government affairs in these years, but now he wanted to intervene in the position of right prime minister. Who would he recommend?
Is it possible that the second brother is still hiding a power in the court that is difficult for him to detect?
"Let me know who you want to recommend!"
"Reporting to the emperor, my sons and ministers want to recommend the former Taifu Shen Li, Mr. Shen!"
"Um?"
Emperor Yu's hand holding the tea cup trembled suddenly, and he looked at Ning Fan with a look of disbelief on his face: "Who are you talking about?"
"Former Taifu, Shen Li!"
Ning Fan repeated his words again, and Emperor Yu's face showed a complicated look. It seemed that he had wrongly blamed him!
I thought that the second child also had a hidden agenda in the court, but now it seems that he is really dedicated to the court and is sincere!
After all, Mr. Shen has been away from Beijing for many years, and it is absolutely impossible for him to have any interaction with the second son. Besides, Mr. Shen will never do anything casual!
Thinking of this, Emperor Yu's expression softened a lot and he looked at Ning Fan: "Do you know where Master Shen is now?"
"Reporting to my father, I have found out that the old gentleman is now living in seclusion in a small town in the south of the Yangtze River!"
"Master Shen is old and may not want to leave the mountain anymore!"
Emperor Yu sighed, Shen Li was indeed a good candidate, and even said that if Shen Li could come, he would be able to ease his dilemma in the court!
But Shen Li had been away from the temple for many years. When he succeeded to the throne, he made several inquiries about the whereabouts of Master Shen, but in the end there was no news!
Now that this kid suddenly mentioned Master Shen, is it possible that he is sure to invite Master Shen out of the mountain?
"Father, there is a scholar under my command who has been friends with Mr. Shen for many years. Now he has personally gone to the south of the Yangtze River to invite Master Shen to come out!"
"oh?"
A hint of curiosity appeared on Emperor Yu's face, and he said softly: "Then how sure do you think you can surprise Master Shen?"
"Eighty to ninety percent!"
"good!"
Emperor Yu's face also showed a hint of joy, and he kept tapping the table with his fingers, and said in a deep voice: "If you can invite Master Shen to the capital within three days, he will be the right minister. !”
"It's a deal!"
Ning Fan's eyes sparkled, and after slightly cupping his hands, he was about to excuse himself and leave.
"Second brother, have you ever found out who was behind the assassination last night?"
"Reporting to my father, those assassins are all dead men, and I haven't found any important clues!"
"Why!"
Emperor Yu also sighed softly and said solemnly: "Now that you are regarded as a thorn in their side, you must not take it lightly and bring more guards when you go out!"
"Father, don't worry, I'm ready!"
"Well, go ahead!"
Ning Fan strode out of the hall. Emperor Yu looked thoughtful for a long time and said softly: "Have you found anything?"
"Reporting to Your Majesty, these eight are the dead soldiers that Marquis Xuanwu brought out from the Blood Demon Pavilion three years ago!"
"Marquis Xuanwu!"
Emperor Yu looked surprised and sneered: "I didn't expect that he would be involved in it!"
"Send someone to protect the second child secretly. If he makes any mistake, I will hold you accountable!"
"According to the order!"
…
Ning Fan returned to his house and had nothing to do, so he started practicing the Thirteen Deadly Spears!
After experiencing an assassination, he was even more thirsty for power!
"I miss you forever, but I miss you forever!"
"Lovesick!"
Ning Fan's figure stagnated in the void, and he stabbed out a spear. The gun barrel trembled, the wind rustled, the momentum was like a rainbow, and cold light shot out!
"You have practiced the first style of Thirteen Deadly Spears once, and your experience value +10"
"You have practiced the first style of Thirteen Deadly Spears once, and your experience value +10"
"You practice..."
System prompts sounded one after another. For more than an hour, Ning Fan became more and more proficient in the use of the first move. If he had been practicing just a few days ago, then today, he has already achieved a certain degree of lethality!
At least, it's not a problem to fight against a few ordinary strong men!
"System, check the martial arts assistance page!"
[Thirteen Deadly Guns]: Xiao Cheng (221/300)
[Picking leaves and flying flowers]: Getting Started (5/100)
Seeing that there was another martial arts attribute page, Ning Fan's face showed a hint of expectation. Now the master-level hidden weapon method is his trump card!
When caught by surprise, even some martial arts masters may find it difficult to guard against him!
"Lin Bo!"
"Second Master, what are your orders?"
"Go get me some darts, silver needles, steel balls and the like!"
"okay!"
Lin Yong went to prepare with a smile, while Ning Fan sat on the bluestone pier to rest. Grandmaster-level hidden weapons are not only throwing methods, but also include the manufacturing process of hidden weapons!
However, if you want to create a real object, you must invest a lot of effort and energy. Ning Fan obviously doesn't have time, and he is not very interested!
For him, hidden weapons are just a way to save his life, so he has no plans to study hard!
…
Night fell quietly. After what happened last night, the entire capital was much more alert. The patrolling imperial troops were walking in the empty alleys with lanterns on.
As a group of forbidden troops left, a ghostly figure appeared in front of a glorious mansion.
"Xuanwuhou Mansion!"
Zhuan Zhu looked at the golden plaque on the door, with a disdainful smile on his lips, and with a movement of his body, he rushed directly into the house!
Regarding the task assigned by the Lord himself, he did not let his subordinates do it, but prepared to personally cut off the head of Xuanwu Hou's son!
"As far as I know, Marquis Xuanwu has three legitimate sons, and the eldest son should live in the east wing!"
After finding the target, Zhuanzhu relied on his strange movement skills to almost completely blend into the night and wander around various houses.
"Mom, try to hide from me again!"
"Get naked and crawl over here!"
"Otherwise, I will kill your family, believe it or not!"
An extremely arrogant voice sounded from a bedroom, accompanied by a cry and the sound of clothes being torn!
"Master Ji, please let me go!"
"I kneel down for you!"
"Woooo..."
Zhuan Zhu's eyes were filled with cold murderous intent. He slowly took out the smoke that had been prepared from his arms, pierced the window paper, and slowly stretched it in!
Not long after, it became extremely peaceful inside!
After a while, Zhuan Zhu calmly walked out with a black bag, flew to the main courtyard, and used smoke to stun Marquis Xuanwu, and his head hung on his bed.
"grown ups!"
When Zhuan Zhu walked out of Xuanwu Hou's mansion, a figure appeared in front of him and said respectfully: "The whereabouts of Xue Sha Pavilion have been found!"
"Notice, after three days, the black and white impermanence assessment will begin!"
"As you command!"
The two of them disappeared into the darkness almost at the same time, and the counterattack from Ning Fan finally began...
