Little Flower Cat is smart and smart.

It's a pity that she is limited by her own vision and pattern, so that she lacks enough understanding of the game between demons and humans.

Although Xia Fan is also a spectator.

But he understands things more comprehensively than the little flower cat.

The demons have made one move after another, and their intentions are all clear.

Naturally, it will be the turn of the human side to fight back.

But the enemy is in the light, and I am in the dark.

Coupled with the fact that the demons are too deeply hidden, the human side seems to be very passive.

If the human side forcibly intervenes, it can indeed achieve a little effect, but it will not be able to cause a substantial heavy blow to the demons.

Therefore.

The human side is likely to be casting a long line to catch big fish.

Thus giving the demon a fatal blow at a critical moment.

For example, the death of the chief scholar caused the wrath of the emperor of the current dynasty, and Xia Mingyuan was strictly ordered to find out the results within a time limit.

The question is, what if Xia Mingyuan can't find out the results?

This question was quickly answered.

Derogatory.

Yes.

Maybe no one thought of it.

At the latest court meeting, the emperor of the current dynasty severely reprimanded Xia Mingyuan in front of the Manchu officials, and even demoted him to the deputy director of the Demon Suppression Division on the grounds that Xia Mingyuan was ineffective, and the position of the chief secretary was temporarily replaced by a member of the royal family, King Qing, the emperor's younger brother.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately shook the entire Yuding Dynasty.

The major sects even sent representatives to contact the emperor of the current dynasty to inquire, after all, everyone understood that Xia Mingyuan's importance was irreplaceable.

And the emperor of the dynasty said.

He just pretended to belittle Xia Mingyuan for giving an explanation to the people of the world, and at the same time also had the meaning of paralyzing demons, but in fact, Xia Mingyuan still held the real power to lead the Demon Suppression Division, and when Xia Mingyuan found out the truth of a series of things, he would naturally reinstate Xia Mingyuan.

But for the vast majority of people who don't know the truth.

Xia Mingyuan is obviously showing signs of falling out of favor.

For a while, rumors were everywhere in the market, and they were very loud.

Many people think that Xia Mingyuan, who has been in charge of the Demon Town Division all the year round, is a master of high merit, which has aroused the suspicion of the emperor of the current dynasty.

In the past, the emperor of the current dynasty trusted Xia Mingyuan, which was nothing more than that the emperor of the current dynasty was confident that he could suppress Xia Mingyuan.

But after the rumors spread that the emperor of the dynasty was dying soon.

The emperor of the current dynasty was worried that the future heir would not be able to suppress Xia Mingyuan, and would even become Xia Mingyuan's puppet.

Therefore, in order to solve the hidden danger in this regard, the emperor of the dynasty will take Xia Mingyuan to the knife.

I have to say.

This kind of rumor is still very marketable for the general public who do not know the truth.

On the contrary, people of insight know it in their hearts.

It is impossible for the emperor to be so stupid that the demons and humans are about to break out and destroy the Great Wall before the Great War.

Even if the emperor really planned to depose Xia Mingyuan, the major sects would not agree in the first place.

After all, the major sects knew too well the importance of Xia Mingyuan.

If he hadn't stabilized the rear of the Yuding Dynasty, the major sects would have lost three points in the future battle with the demons.

As the center of the whirlpool, Xia Mingyuan was still calm.

After pacifying the members of the Demon Division, he handed over the power of the Great Division to King Qing.

King Qing had a high reputation among the royal family, and at the same time he was quite modest and generous.

Over the years.

King Qing has always been responsible for the internal affairs of the royal family, and can be described as the great butler of the emperor's management of affairs, plus the other party has never interfered in the affairs of the court, and he has always lived in a simple and low-key manner on weekdays, which makes many people subconsciously forget His Royal Highness King Qing.

After taking over the power handed over by Xia Mingyuan.

King Qing once convened a meeting of the divisions of the Demon Division, and made it clear that he was the temporary chief of the Demon Division, and the specific affairs of the Demon Division would still be handled by Xia Mingyuan in the future.

And so it goes.

The whole town demon division was relieved.

This is not only because Xia Mingyuan has a good reputation in the Demon Suppression Division, but also because he is worried that King Qing is really ordered by the emperor to seize power and command indiscriminately.

And King Qing directly dispelled the concerns of the Demon Division.

Anyway, I can do whatever I want in the future, just when I don't exist.

This move makes people feel that King Qing is very knowledgeable and self-aware.

Clinker Xia Mingyuan said that he could not trespass, and the corresponding affairs of the Demon Division in the future would still be decided by King Qing, and he was only responsible for assisting him in doing his duty.

Facing the incomprehension of the members of the Demon Suppression Division.

Xia Mingyuan said that he wanted to relax after working all these years, and hoped that everyone could understand Yunyun.

"Li Huan, what does our Xia Dasi rate mean?"

When the news reached Nian Fan's ears.

Nian Fan couldn't understand what Xia Mingyuan was thinking.

You know, right now, it's the time when the demons and humans are secretly fighting at their fiercest, and as a result, you're the first to quit?

"The big boss has its own deep meaning, which we can speculate. ”

Li Huan snorted coldly and said disapprerovingly.

“...... I think our Xia Dasi is retreating into advance. ”

After getting along these days.

Nian Fan naturally knew that Li Huan respected Xia Mingyuan very much in his heart.

You can say that he is not in a thousand ways, but as long as you say a bad word about Xia Mingyuan, he can make you unable to take care of yourself in life.

"You're thinking too simply......"

Li Huan's eyes were full of contempt, and he glanced at Nian Fan Dao, who was touching his chin and thinking.

"What you can even guess, can't the demons guess?"

"But what if the demons all think the same way as you?"

Instead of getting angry, Nian Fan smiled and said.

"Anyone knows that our Xia Dasi is wise and scheming, and a seemingly trivial thing has a deep meaning, the problem is that our Xia Dasi is the opposite......"

"I'll admit that you have some truth in what you say, but you still know too little about our Grand Division. ”

Li Huan raised his eyebrows.

"It's not that I don't know much, it's that your reverence for the Great Commander is too blind. ”

Nian Fan pursed his lips and muttered.

"What did you say?"

Li Huan's tone was so calm that there was no trace of emotional fluctuations.

"I said, the death of the chief university priest, did you really not find any clues on the demon side of the town?"

Nian Fan said quietly.

"Although the death of the chief scholar has classified the division as top secret, I have successfully accessed and reviewed the case file with the help of the privilege granted by the chief minister, and I can tell you clearly that the division did find a clue, but this clue was not recorded in the case file. ”

Li Huan said lightly.

"And how did you know this clue?"

Nian Fan said curiously.

"Who do you think I am?"

Li Huan said in a disdainful tone.

"If I can't even see the strange things hidden in the case file, I've been in vain in the Demon Town Division all these years!"

"Then tell me, what kind of clue is it?!"

Nian Fan hurriedly asked.

"The Nine Princes and the Thirteen Princes. ”

Li Huan said suddenly.

"Huh?"

Nian Fan was immediately confused when he heard this.

Why did it get involved with the Nine Emperors and the Thirteen Princes for no reason?

"Our chief scholar is actually the one who is most interested in the Nine Emperors or the Thirteenth Princes ascending to the throne. ”

Li Huan squinted his eyes slightly.

"Because the chief scholar and the mother family of the queen of the dynasty are related by marriage, in terms of blood, the ninth prince and the thirteenth prince still have to call the chief scholar uncle. ”

"But what does this have to do with the death of the Chief Scholar?"

Nian Fan couldn't help frowning.

"Listen to me first, what's the hurry, if there is the support of the chief scholar, the Nine Emperors and the Thirteen Princes may not be able to compete for the throne with the Four Princes in the future, but now that the Chief Scholar is dead, it means that the greatest help of the Nine Emperors and the Thirteen Princes is gone, who do you think wants the Chief Scholar to die?"

“...... The Four Princes. ”

Nian Fan's eyes shrank instantly.

"You mean ......"

"The most important thing is that I also deliberately checked the complete case file of the death of the three princes before, guess what I found?"

The corners of Li Huan's mouth were slightly hooked.

"The fourth prince had a close relationship with the third prince for a while, but then somehow broke off contact. ”

“...... Tsk tsk, things suddenly became complicated and interesting. ”

Nian Fan was silent for a moment, then shook his head and chuckled.

"Looks like we're going to be busy. ”
