"Did you reveal my news to other people?" Xia Fan asked in a quiet voice.

"No, your true identity and the purpose of this trip are secrets of the Privy

Council. I still know that." Xin Wu quickly added, "I just mentioned that

there is a top-ranked figure who is trusted by the core. But no specific

information about you was disclosed. If you don’t say so, they estimate that

they will reach an agreement in a short time."

Xia Fan understood what he meant.

The main force of the Privy Council went out, and the remaining batch of

pillars were "caught by a net" at the Wandeng Banquet. The surviving ones are

all small fish and shrimps. He, an outsider, has become the one with the

highest status. Xin Wu wanted to do something to redeem his disadvantages, but

was unable to integrate the overall situation, so he approached him.

"What if I disagree?"

In the final analysis, this is an internal conflict between the Privy Council

and the court. If the prince trusts these alchemists, he will definitely be

released soon. If he is wary of the Privy Council and wants to take this

opportunity to dismantle this special organization that has lasted for nearly

a hundred years, then Xia Fan is even more pleased to hear about it.

For Jinxia City, both are the same raccoon dog, no different in the degree of

decay.

"The matter may not be resolved until the second prince returns. But before

that..." Xin Wu clenched his fist, "The Privy Council is likely to suffer huge

losses. Losing the heart is a small matter. Once it is invaded by an overseas

enemy , The consequences can be unimaginable!"

"Enemies overseas?" Xia Fan frowned, "What do you mean?"

"It's normal if you didn't know... This should have been something that His

Highness Ning told you. In recent years, there have been many cases of

overseas envoys spying on the information of the Privy Council in Gyeonggi,

and most of them are gone. I don't understand this. The reason behind the

scenes, but obviously they did not do it because of goodwill or curiosity."

He seemed to have heard this before.

Xia Fan thought about it, and found that Ning Wanjun had also said the

same--"The Holy Master doesn't want to see these outsiders. There are a few

foreign envoys in Shangyuan City that have caused them to jump."

"Are you sure there is something hidden behind this matter?"

"I can only think so." Xin Wu said bluntly. "Things happened too strange, and

there was no strong emotional person around the prince. If he wants the

alchemist to achieve the assassination, someone must cooperate with him. It's

just that these messengers from overseas have been registered as emotional

people!"

"The question is what can I do if I find it out? Don't you tell me everything,

don't the past cases basically stop?"

"That's because the other party is a messenger and lives in the Hongyou

Temple. Without conclusive evidence, the Privy Council can't do anything. This

time the main alchemist's march to meet the invaders of the high country is

known to everyone, and the headquarters is almost an empty shell— \-If this

matter really started from them, I am afraid that we will relax our vigilance

at this time." Xin Wu bowed his head and said, "My lord, this is not only a

crisis in the Privy Council, but it is also an extremely rare opportunity. I

hope you don't evade it! "

These remarks made Xia Fan look at the messenger again. At least when most of

the core members are missing, he can analyze the situation and try to take

action to deal with the crisis. This thought has been called bold and

meticulous. .

However, the above situation is only speculation after all. Assuming that, as

Xin Wu said, there are overseas envoys behind the incident, but what is the

most direct benefit of doing this? Give the prince a chance to rectify the

Privy Council in exchange for a royalist alchemist force? It sounds

uneconomical. After all, as long as the prince still has normal thinking, he

will definitely understand the truth that local alchemists are more reliable

than overseas envoys——

wait!

Xia Fan stared at each other, "What did you just say?"

"Uh... this is a crisis in the Privy Council, but it is also—"

"No, the previous sentence."

Xin Wu thought for a while, and said unsure, "Everyone knows that the main

force is to fight against the invaders of the high country. The headquarters

has almost become an empty shell?"

"So who are the left-behind personnel in the Privy Council?"

"This...regular affairs officer and handyman."

"Okay, I'll take this job--no, it is incumbent to protect the rights of the

Privy Council from being infringed by overseas forces." Xia Fan responded.

Xin Wu's expression was overjoyed, "My lord, are you...yes?"

"Yes, but don't ventilate with the remaining alchemists in advance. The more

unclear the situation, the more likely betrayers will appear. If there is any

need, I will mention it to you alone, right?"

"Yes!" he arched his hands, "then Sir Lao!"

...

Shangyuan City, Tianfu District.

Xia Fan climbed to the top of a pagoda with the seven-star brand given to him

by the Privy Council. This pagoda was built fifty years ago and has four

floors. It is the smallest of the six pagodas in Shangyuan City. Although

there are only four floors, it is the highest overlooking point of Tianfu

Street, and it happens to be able to see the complete appearance of the Privy

Council two blocks away.

"Now you can always say..." Li took off his hat, freed his ears that had been

suppressed for a long time, and trembled in the wind, "Promise that messenger,

and help the Privy Council's reason."

Listening to the tone of the fox demon, this question seemed to hold her back

for a long time.

Obviously, in Li's eyes, the Privy Council was her greatest enemy. As the

murderer who took the Master away, she wished that the Privy Council would be

torn apart immediately. If she did not trust Xia Fan, she would have protested

in Wanjing Tower.

"It's actually very simple. This is the best opportunity to sneak into the

Privy Council of Gyeonggi." Xia Fan explained.

"Sneak into... the Privy Council?" Li asked in surprise.

"Yes. I've been thinking before, if that person's guess is correct, what is

the biggest benefit for the planners behind the scenes? Only after much

deliberation is the Privy Council itself~www.mtlnovel.com~Xia Fan looking far

away The gray wall said, "The Privy Council in other places is just a security

organization, but here is different-it inherits the magical inheritance of the

previous dynasty, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a treasure

house in the eyes of insiders. "

"What do you mean... After the hidden enemy restrains the power of the Privy

Council, these are the most likely places to use their hands and feet?" Fang

Xiandao suddenly said.

"Or a big hall--" Xia Fan paused, "The main hall of Lubu where there are magic

spells, magic weapon catalogs, and secrets that ordinary people cannot know."

"So that's the case." Qian Yan raised his mouth with interest, "No matter if

the other party guessed it right or not, it will not change the fact that the

Privy Council is now like an empty shell."

He nodded, "And the answers he finds are often the most accurate and

reliable."

"But, but... this is the Privy Council," only Fang Yanni looked worried. "If

we get caught, wouldn't it be a bad thing? If there is no permission from the

recording department, it means breaking into it without permission. Capital

crime..."

"I didn't break in privately." Xia Fan said with a light smile, "Isn't this

what the Privy Council entrusted to investigate the truth of the assassination

and prevent the planners from causing more damage?"
