"Senior brother, what's going on?" Shi Yong couldn't help but ask when he saw that Xia Fan's face was not very good.

"Look at it. Xia Fan gave the box of spirit jade to Shi Yong, but he was constantly thinking about the important information that Eagle Invincible had sent to him.

Eagle Potian's movements are getting bigger and bigger, which not only affects the changes in the situation on the grassland, but also inevitably affects the Han Dynasty and other large and small countries.

Previously, the eagle broke the sky to unify the grassland, became the Eagle Emperor, and stepped up the speed of expansion outward, just because of the civil strife in the Han Dynasty and the prince's retreat, no one presided over the overall situation, but now the prince has been out of the customs, and got the edict of succession, and it is already a sure thing to ascend the throne as the emperor, and the prince became extremely strong after the pass, and sent troops to quell the rebellion everywhere, looking like he was working hard.

Throughout the ages, after a young and promising emperor ascended the throne, most of them would first rectify the rule of officials, and then control the military power, followed by external expansion. Judging from the current situation, it is clear that the crown prince is doing the same.

When the Tianjiao on the grassland such as Eagle Potian and the crown prince of the Han Dynasty face each other, it must be a life-and-death battle between two huge countries. In such a situation, any small country and small power caught in it will inevitably be easily crushed into powder.

Although Xia Fan's territory was not sandwiched between these two countries, the situation was still not optimistic, because he knew very well in his heart that the crown prince had set his sights on him and began to deal with him.

The current situation is becoming more and more critical, and time is becoming more and more urgent, Xia Fan can no longer lay out extremely calmly.

"But fortunately, I was prepared, and some of the previous arrangements should also be able to come in handy, so I can get through the current hurdle first. Xia Fan thought to himself.

"Senior Brother, you said that the Second Senior Brother mentioned the opening of the Three Holy Lands of the Grassland, should we go and intervene and help a group of Second Senior Brothers by the way?"

"There's no urgency over there, the most important thing right now is in front of you. Xia Fan held the box containing the spirit jade in his hand, his fingers flicked lightly on it, making a tinkling and tinkling sound, and he said: "The eagle breaks the sky and moves so much on the grassland, but how have we all heard too much wind before, don't you think it's strange?"

"Senior brother is saying that someone has blocked the news?" Shi Yong immediately thought of the reason.

"That's right. Xia Fan nodded and said: "The crown prince is about to ascend the throne, isn't the time already set? At this time, it should be the time for the whole country to celebrate, singing and dancing, if those things on the grassland come over, wouldn't it ruin everyone's mood, it will be too bad for the scenery, so some people intentionally or unintentionally blocked these news." ”

"Did you say the prince knew?" Shi Yong couldn't help but ask.

"Is it important to know or not to know?" Xia Fan shook his finger and said, "Seventh Senior Brother, you have to understand one thing, that is, the crown prince needs to be peaceful before he ascends the throne, so the grassland is piercing the sky, and he will pretend not to know, but ...... Of course, this is not going to end here. ”

"You're saying there's going to be a big war soon. Shi Yong's eyes froze.

"Yes, the current prince is not the same as before, maybe there was an emperor in the past who pressed some things on his head that was not too smooth, and now he is about to become an emperor, and he is suddenly unrestrained, so the prince has become extremely strong and domineering now, just look at the things he is doing now. Before the eagle broke the sky, he took advantage of the prince's retreat to make wind and rain, and later ascended the throne as the eagle emperor, and was attacking Blood River City, do you think this is a slap in the face in the eyes of the prince?"

When Xia Fan said this, he couldn't help but sneer: "Before he was about to become the emperor of the Han Dynasty, ruling the Quartet, and all the people surrendered, someone was making trouble for himself, and the movement was getting bigger and bigger, guess if the prince in the palace could swallow this breath." ”

"No, you can't. Shi Yong shook his head without thinking about it.

"Of course he can't. Xia Fan said: "As soon as the prince came out of the customs, he rectified the rule of officials, and strongly subdued the ministers in the court, and then transferred troops to quell the chaos, in order to create a good-looking situation for himself to ascend the throne and build momentum, but now the eagle breaks the sky and blocks him again, how can he stand it, so in my opinion, the prince will not give up." ”

"What does that have to do with us?" Shi Yong asked puzzled.

"It's not just related, it's big. Xia Fan flicked the box in his hand again, clanged, and said, "The previous war between the three sects and the four sects, in the eyes of the prince, may be looking for trouble for him, he will inevitably find the three sects and four sects to settle accounts in the future, and I have also become a thorn in his side, anxious to remove me and hurry up, besides, the prince is about to ascend the throne, and no one dares to say whether he will settle the old accounts of the past, my identity is more embarrassing, in order not to give the prince an excuse to trouble the Qiankun Sect, so I decided to return to Baishi City as soon as possible." ”

............

"No, you can't just leave. Xia Fan, I didn't say you, why bother? Could it be that the crown prince ascended the throne and became the emperor, and he could still send a large army to the Qiankun Sect to arrest you? If that's the case, we may not be afraid of him?!" After hearing the news that Xia Fan was about to leave, he was quite unhappy, and hurriedly came over to persuade Xia Fan.

In Bang Ye's opinion, although the battle between the three sects and the four sects is over, there are still many things left, and many of them need Xia Fan's help to get ideas. At the same time, Mu Sheng and Jian Ruthless were also constantly asking for compensation from the Three Sects, and how to divide it after the compensation was received was also indispensable for Xia Fan to be present. In addition, the four sects are now in the same qi, and how to treat the three sects and how to treat the Han Dynasty in the future are all matters that need to be discussed urgently. If Xia Fan picks his son and leaves like this, what will happen to the three of them?

"I'm afraid I'm definitely not afraid of him, you're not afraid, I'm not afraid either. Xia Fan was also quite grateful for Bang Ye's retention, but his determination had been made and he would not change it easily, so he said: "But we are not afraid, but what about the rest of the sect? The Han Dynasty is not the Three Sects, they have soldiers and horses, and they have unparalleled war potential, with the current strong style of the Crown Prince, they must not be afraid to fight a protracted war with us, but Bang Ye, think about it calmly, can our Three Sects still withstand such a big war?"

"No, you can't. Although Bang Ye has a hot temper, he is not brainless, Xia Fan has said this thing, if he still can't figure it out, it will be too wasteful, so he shook his head helplessly.

"Therefore, even if there will be a war between our four sects and the Great Han Dynasty in the future, it must not be today. Xia Fan said solemnly.

"It's just that we haven't even been afraid of a powerful guy like Lotus Peng Ancestor, and we collided head-on with him to the end, but now we are retreating when facing the crown prince of the Han Dynasty, which is really a bit unbearable. Bang Ye had a gloomy face, and he was very unhappy. He understood that Xia Fan did this with his own considerations, and it was indeed for the sake of the interests of the four sects, which could be said to be sacrificing personal honor and disgrace for the sake of the overall situation. But the more this is the case, the more the explosion Ye feels sorry for Xia Fan, and at the same time, the more dissatisfied he is with the Han Dynasty, especially the current crown prince.

"You don't have to swallow this bad breath, I have a plan in my heart, when the time comes, you will cooperate with me, and you will give me a face, how about it?" Xia Fan said with a smile.

"What to do, you just have to give orders? This face is not only for you, but also for the First Sword Sect and the Dan Sect to hold the field for you to the end. Bang Ye patted his chest and reassured.

"That's good. Xia Fan's smile became brighter and brighter.

got Xia Fan's promise, and the arrangement that Xia Fan had already made was considered to have a relatively good ending, and the rest had to see how the time came. This time, Xia Fan really didn't plan to have a hard fight with the prince in the capital, so he wisely chose to leave. If the prince let him go safely like this, it would naturally be that everyone's well water would not interfere with the river water, but if it was as Xia Fan expected, the prince would regard it as a big trouble and want to clear it in one fell swoop, of course Xia Fan would not sit still, and would naturally give the prince an impressive lesson.

Rationally speaking, Xia Fan doesn't want to take the initiative to provoke the prince now, after all, the prince is about to ascend the throne as the emperor, and he will rule the huge Han Dynasty in the future, and tearing his face with him is really harmful and not beneficial, but Xia Fan is not the kind of temper that can be knocked out of his teeth and swallowed in his stomach with blood, once tolerating and twice retreating is already the limit, and when he reaches the third time, he will definitely have no need to endure it anymore.

This is the last concession for Xia Fan, it can be said that there is enough leeway, if the prince is still aggressive and has to move in, then Xia Fan will no longer have to swallow his anger. Horizontal and vertical is just to show that the chariots and horses are fighting to the end, who is afraid of whom!

The day of the crown prince's accession to the throne has already been announced to the world, and it is chosen on the ninth day of the ninth month of September.

The prince's accession to the throne is a major event, so it is natural to invite people with heads and faces in the world to watch the ceremony, this is a common practice, of course, the four sects have also received invitations, but Mr. is not there, it stands to reason that if the Qiankun Sect wants to go to the ceremony, it should be Xia Fan, the senior brother, who should come forward best, which can be regarded as giving the prince a face. It's just that Xia Fan's identity is more special, in addition to being the senior brother of the Qiankun Sect, he is also the son of the king of the town, and he is also the ruler of Baishi City and Yunhuan Lake, if he appears on the throne ceremony with the latter two identities, it will inevitably block the crown prince, so in order to look good on each other's faces, Xia Fan gave the invitation to the thirteen princes, and asked him to join in the fun on behalf of the Qiankun Sect.

After all, without completely tearing off the skin, the face should be done or done, the thirteen princes are both disciples of the Qiankun Sect and members of the royal family, and it is most suitable for him to come forward.
