Chapter 150: Kyoto, the dust settles

Chapter 150 Return to Kyoto, the dust settles
Faced with Fan Xian's questions, Qin Feng did not keep him in suspense.

He smiled and said, "It depends on the situation. Should we attack one by one or in groups? What about the frequency and strength of the attacks? It all depends on the situation. Also, who the Grandmaster you are besieging is very important!"

"Master, please tell me everything." Fan Xian's face was full of curiosity.

"To put it simply, a Grandmaster is also a person with an upper limit. He is very powerful, has a very fast recovery speed, and is also very strong in defense!"

"As long as you break this limit, you can consume its strength until it dies!"

"If we continuously send warriors in batches to consume the enemy, and if they are strong enough, the Grandmaster will be consumed the fastest, but the loss will also be the greatest. It is estimated that one hundred ninth-grade warriors can kill a Grandmaster."

In this case, there are too many restrictions.

If we relax a little, more lives will be needed to surround and kill the grandmaster.

"One hundred ninth-rank warriors? I don't think there are that many in the entire world."

Fan Xian continued to ask: "Master, didn't you say that the strength of each Grand Master is different, so more people will be needed?"

"That's natural!"

Qin Feng nodded and said, "Si Gu Jian may not even need a hundred people. His martial arts are too killing, and he is unstoppable. He consumes his energy faster and is not good at defense. Ninety ninth-grade warriors can kill him!"

"Ye Liuyun is good at Qinggong, but the terrain restricts him, so he is just ordinary. A hundred people can kill him!"

"As for Ku He, he is actually the most difficult to kill. He also has a way to restore his internal energy. It will probably take two hundred people to kill him!"

"Can he restore his true energy infinitely?" Fan Xian asked in a curious way.

"Of course not. It depends on the location!"

Qin Feng pointed behind him and said, "The vitality over there in Dadong Mountain is very rich. If she were in that place, Ku He should be able to recover her true energy all the time. But in other places, she can probably only use it once or twice, and the amount recovered will not be much."

"So it's mainly Ku He's physical strength that's consumed?"

"You may think so."

"Master, I want to ask you a question that is extremely blasphemous."

Fan Xian asked nervously, "What if Master is under siege?"

When they were discussing Taoism on Mount Dadong before, he discovered that Qin Feng actually knew a little bit about everything and his overall strength was extremely powerful!

"Boy, I knew you would ask this."

Qin Feng was not angry either, he just said: "I don't know the details, I can only tell you that there are more than 200 people."

Qin Feng knows so much, hexagonal warrior!
Other grandmasters also need to use true energy to defend, and the amount consumed is not small.

As for Qin Feng, he can block most of the damage with his own physical fitness.

And his total amount of true energy is even comparable to Emperor Qing.

There is also the visualization method, which allows him to take time to restore his mental strength. Except that there is an upper limit to the recovery speed of his true energy, Qin Feng can be said to be invincible.

"Master is worthy of being a master, he is awesome!" Fan Xian praised.

Then he asked, "Master, I still don't quite understand the move you just taught me. Can you teach me again?"

More than a thousand people died at once, and this matter could not be concealed.

He died on the side of the official road and was soon found, and then the news spread.

Kyoto.

The news that Fan Xian and the third prince poisoned Emperor Qing has spread throughout Kyoto.

However, not many people believed this news. After all, Kyoto is not a small place. Basically everyone in Kyoto knows who Fan Xian is. He is the immortal poet of Qing Kingdom and the apprentice of the grandmaster.

These two conditions combined make the rumor much less credible.

Of course, there are still many people who believe it outside of Kyoto.

After all, apart from Kyoto, other places can be called small places, even Jiangnan is just a slightly larger small place.

This is not discrimination or anything, it is the truth.

There are few educated people in small places, and they are all ignorant. They believe whatever others say and have no subjective consciousness.

Inside the palace.

After hearing the news that the assassination attempt had failed, the prince accepted his fate.

He no longer had any cards to play. Facing the Grand Master, he was like a fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others!

"It's over!" muttered the prince.

"still have a chance!"

Li Yunrui said, "The news of His Majesty's death has spread throughout Qing Kingdom. Three governors are already coming to Kyoto. This is an opportunity!"

"I have already won over two of them. When the time comes, I will persuade one of them, and maybe I can help you ascend the throne!"

"aunt?"

Li Chengqian looked at Li Yunrui and said in disbelief: "Do you know what you are doing? You are splitting up the Qing Kingdom!"

During these few days, he wanted to ascend the throne, but the Ministry of Rites ignored him. The Inspection Institute stepped in and easily suppressed the matter.

So at this point, he really had no cards to play.

And what about Li Yunrui? She actually colluded with the governor!

Still thinking about going to war and splitting the Qing Kingdom!
Li Chengqian had never thought of such a thing. Even if he wanted to seize power, he would not allow Qing Kingdom to split away even a tiny bit of its land. This was the bottom line of the fight!
"What? Are you still thinking about seizing power peacefully?"

Li Yunrui sneered, "You know, it was you who gave the order to cover up Yan Shen's whereabouts!"

"Crazy! You're crazy!" Li Chengqian pointed at Li Yunrui, his tone excited.

If he retired now, he could still retain a bit of dignity and perhaps become a leisurely prince.

This is also what Li Chengqian is pursuing now. After all, he is facing a great master, and there is also Emperor Qing’s will, which he cannot stop.

Surrendering is the only option!

But Li Yunrui seemed unwilling to let him retreat.

Threatening him with things really made him feel unreasonable.

"Someone, take the eldest princess away and take good care of her!" Li Chengqian shouted, suppressing his anger.

After dealing with Li Yunrui, he stopped spreading rumors, began to prepare to welcome Fan Xian, and began to express goodwill.

Inspection Institute.

Chen Pingping listened to the information reported by Shadow and knew that the prince had no longer resisted.

"More than a thousand cavalrymen, all dead, and all with just one move!"

"According to the traces, the first sword killed more than 600 people!"

"He defeated six hundred cavalrymen with one sword, and they were all warriors wearing light armor. Grandmaster, oh, Grandmaster, you are inhuman!"

Hearing Shadow's praise, Chen Pingping smiled slightly.

He asked back, "Didn't you say you wanted to break through to Grandmaster level? Do you think you have a chance now?"

"That's natural!"

Shadow said without thinking: "No setbacks can defeat me. My martial arts will is unshakable!"

Being strong will not only not be stressful for Shadow, but will make him more motivated!

"Then I hope you can break through to the Grandmaster level soon." Chen Pingping said with a smile.

He knew how difficult it was to break through to the Grandmaster level. Shadow? Unless he had some kind of adventure, it would be difficult for him to do so in this lifetime!
Not long after, news came that the prince summoned Chen Pingping to the palace.

"Dean, this might be a trap!" Shadow advised from the side.

He first pretended to accept his fate, then tricked Chen Pingping in and kidnapped him to threaten Fan Xian.

It is possible that the prince could do such a thing.

After all, Chen Pingping and Fan Xian had a good relationship, and this kind of thing was a consensus among the Qing Kingdom's top leaders, and everyone knew it. "It's okay, just go to the Ye family first." Chen Pingping said calmly.

He always plans before taking action.

Faced with the prince's invitation, the best way is not to go. This way, after Fan Xian arrives in Beijing, everything will naturally be settled.

But if you go now, you can get more benefits.

So Chen Pingping had to go, and for safety reasons, he could give himself an extra layer of insurance.

"The Ye family? Could it be that Grandmaster Ye Liuyun is back? How come I don't know the news?" Shadow was stunned.

"He just came directly to me, so of course you don't know." Chen Pingping said with a smile.

If we were to ask who knows the situation in Kyoto best, it would naturally be Chen Pingping, the uncrowned king of Kyoto today.

So Ye Liuyun came to him first to ask about the situation.

"Is that so? Then let's go find him now?"

"kindness."

"Will he help?"

"Of course, the situation is better than you think."

Chen Pingping has a constant smile on his face now.

Sixteen years!

Sixteen whole years!

Finally, the young lady’s revenge was finally achieved, how could he not be happy?
When no one was around, he would even sing loudly, singing the songs that Ye Qingmei taught him.

It's him!It's him!it's him!
Our hero, little Nezha!
Shadow pushed Chen Pingping to the Ye Mansion, and not long after, Ye Liuyun came out and walked towards the palace with Chen Pingping.

No one knew what was talked about in the palace, but afterwards, Kyoto instantly became peaceful.

The things people talked about were no longer rumors that Fan Xian and the Third Prince had poisoned Emperor Qing.

Rather, it is the story of Fan Xian protecting His Majesty and competing with the Grand Master in a battle of wits and courage.

There is also the story of Fan Xian protecting the imperial edict into Kyoto and killing rebels along the way.

This was to create momentum, and with the intervention of the Inspection Institute, the news was spread out rapidly.

Two days later.

August 20th, the fourth year of the Qingli period.

At the east gate of Kyoto, there were the Crown Prince, the Second Prince, the Third Prince, Chen Pingping, Fan Jian, and a group of ministers who stayed in Beijing.

At this time, everyone gathered at the east gate, looking into the distance.

By the way, the Qin family is not here!

At this time of transition of imperial power, as a family with military power, Qin Ye ignored the prince when he approached them.

Using the excuse of border changes, the whole family went to the other side of the border and waited before coming back.

This is clever, but too clever!

Moreover, Qin Ye was also involved in Ye Qingmei's death, so he couldn't escape even if he wanted to.

Soon, Fan Xian appeared at the city gate, carrying the urn in his left hand and the will in his right hand.

The prince and his men gathered around him, all smiling.

The third prince was confused and didn't know what to say, so he just stood there.

Chen Pingping, Fan Jian and the others did not come over, but just watched Fan Xian from a distance.

Because they knew that Fan Xian would not stop here, but would go directly into the palace.

Just like that, the Crown Prince, the Second Prince and other people who wanted to get close to the emperor in advance all met with setbacks.

And they couldn't get angry, so they had to smile and walk towards the palace.

The Tiger Guards under Fan Jian's command took over the security work, cleared the way and headed straight for the palace.

Half an hour later.

In the main hall of the imperial palace, all the most important civil and military officials of Qing Kingdom were present.

That’s right, old guy Qin Ye has also rushed back.

The time is neither early nor late, just right.

The Crown Prince, the Second Prince, the Third Prince and others are all here.

Qin Feng and Ye Liuyun were naturally there too, sitting on either side of the throne, one on the left and one on the right.

This is a symbol, symbolizing the equal relationship between the Grand Master and the imperial power.

The rest is just a formality.

Fan Xian took out the will and read it in the hall. The ministers and princes knelt down to receive the order.

"Disciple Li Chengping, hello to Master!"

In this court, Li Chengping kowtowed three times to Fan Xian to prove their friendship between master and disciple.

"Please stand up quickly!" Fan Xian quickly helped Li Chengping up.

Just when he was about to say something, Li Chengping ran in front of Qin Feng.

He knelt down again, "Disciple Li Chengping, homage to Master!"

Seeing this scene, Qin Feng burst into laughter.

With a wave of his hand, he lifted him up out of thin air, "You are really smart! You know how to pay homage to me."

Li Chengping's worship of Fan Xian as his master only means that Fan Xian is the state teacher and can teach Li Chengping how to govern the country.

But now, taking advantage of today's situation, he directly worshipped Qin Feng as his master.

The most important thing is that Qin Feng did not stop it, which is different. It means that he is under the protection of the grandmaster and can learn martial arts in the future.

In addition, Ye Liuyun has always been loyal to the emperor. With the protection of these two great masters, who dares to touch Li Chengping's throne? !
"My mother taught me!" Li Chengping explained openly.

This time, Qin Feng laughed even more happily. This silly boy is really funny.

Qin Feng had no idea of ​​taking Li Chengping as his disciple before, but he didn't mind when the other party bowed down to him.

It's fine to accept it, after all, he is an emperor.

Seeing this scene, Li Chengqian and Li Chengze's eyes turned red with jealousy and their teeth were almost broken.

The two of them have fought so hard for so long, but couldn't even touch the throne. Now this Li Chengping has picked up the throne without doing anything, and is also related to the grandmaster. It's really enviable!
After that, nothing serious happened.

It was nothing more than a state funeral, and the whole country mourned for three months. Li Chengping was named the crown prince, and after the state funeral, he ascended the throne as emperor.

Li Chengqian and Li Chengze were granted the title of idle princes, and their fiefdoms were far away and remote.

Oh, and there is also Li Yunrui.

Based on Chen Pingping's evidence, she was directly convicted of treason, stripped of her title of Princess, her fiefdom taken back, and demoted to a commoner.

And Fan Xian would never let her go free, but would keep her specially raised and assign people to guard her around the clock.

At this court meeting, only these few major events are worth paying attention to, the rest are not very important.

But everyone knows that this is just the calm before the storm.

With the full support of the Inspection Institute, the entire court will probably be purged by then.

And those who participated in the rebellion will also be liquidated one by one.

The most important are those who were involved in Ye Qingmei's case back then, such as Qin Ye and the Queen Mother. Fan Xian will not let any of them go!

He wants to remove these people bit by bit!
 There is still one chapter to wait, I will try to finish it in about one o'clock.
