After much hesitation, Yan Yue made a decision that was worthy of Xia Fan's trust - while resigning from the Secretariat, she told all about why she came to Jinxia and the plans of the Privy Council Office. As for the family, she planned to go to Xu Kingdom to confront the Seven Star Envoy in person.
Later it turned out that this was the best decision in her life.
Xia Fan not only did not agree to her resignation, but after understanding the situation, he asked her to use some less important information to stabilize the Privy Council, and then asked Olina and Chi to launch a secret rescue. Because of the importance of the Yan family's medical skills, the Privy Council did not blatantly monitor or imprison the Yan family, which gave Jin Xia a huge space to display. After all, according to the traditional concept, it takes a month or two for a letter to come back and forth, and as soon as the letter was sent, Chi had already returned to his hometown with Yanyue.
The next thing happened naturally. The head of the family, who was still in the dark, was persuaded by her and sent the disciples of the clan to the city to collect medicine. One night, she and several important clan members used the help of Miss Long to leap over the city wall and disappear into the night. Since all the family property had been abandoned and the drug store was still open that day, no one noticed the Yan family's escape.
Yanyue didn't know how the Privy Council would react, but after she returned to Jinxia, she immediately wrote a very long letter and sprayed the other party with blood. Even today when she thinks about it, she still feels resentful.
Fortunately, the transfer of the Yan family happened to coincide with Xia Fan's medical expansion plan. There were more than ten hospitals and clinics spread across Shenzhou. Those key disciples quickly took up their posts after receiving short-term training, so they did not waste their time. long.
Therefore, after hearing Yu Heng's rhetoric, even the last bit of politeness disappeared. After she told the scandal in a loud voice, she pointed to the door, "If you understand, it's best to disappear now." In front of me, don’t let me call the guards in and kick you out!”
Chu Pu's expression froze.
It wasn't that the other party's attitude was too offensive, but that she didn't know anything about it at all.
No, she knew something about the sudden disappearance of the Yan family, but at that time everyone said that they were killed by assassins sent by Jin Xia. Although it sounded a bit exaggerated, there were still many people who believed it.
In the end, did the Privy Council shoot itself in the foot
And until now, no one has mentioned the truth to her.
If she knew, how could she come to her door to humiliate herself!
Ambassador Yuheng stood up and said with a green face, "Excuse me, we're leaving now."
…
After leaving the medical department building, the guard couldn't help but said, "Sir... this matter has nothing to do with you. Even if what she said is true, she shouldn't come after you."
Chu Pu let out a breath of white air, "Are you comforting me?"
The latter quickly lowered his head, "I just feel that Yanyue's case is purely accidental, and there is no need for you to be too disappointed."
"I am indeed disappointed." She put down her paper umbrella and looked up at the sky, letting the snowflakes fall on her face. "But I am not disappointed in her, but in the Privy Council."
"...Master Chu?"
"Now I gradually understand where we lost." Chu Pu said slowly, "That is arrogance."
Everyone was silent for a moment.
"For example, in the case of Miss Yan, the Privy Council's work was too clumsy. There were only threatening words but no actual threats." She seemed to be telling everyone, but also seemed to be talking to herself, "Why? Because the chief officer The alchemist in this matter was too arrogant. He neither believed that Yanyue had the ability to resist, nor did he think that the Yan family could escape from under the eyes of the Privy Council. They did not, but the Privy Council had never considered that Jinxia City had such ability. As long as Yanyue goes out of his way to ask for help from Jinxia, there is a possibility that the latter will intervene."
"Of course... maybe the officials in charge thought that Yanyue would take this step, but assuming that something like this happened in Yongding City, the Seven Stars would never go to war for an enemy spy. They would either imprison her to extract information, or use her as bait To catch a bigger fish... Not only did he send the dragon girl and the city's elite alchemists to rescue him, but he also continued to entrust him with important tasks?" Chu Pu couldn't help but laughed at himself, "How short of a manpower is there for the Nine Heavens Thunder Envoy? Is he just that? Have you ever thought about the possibility that the rescue failed and the Yan family was wiped out?"
"That's about it for people with a shocking heart..." the guard could only say with relief.
"But this is still caused by the arrogance of the Privy Council. Because the official measured everything by the standards of the Privy Council, which ultimately led to the rebellion of the Yan family with almost no burden."
"Maybe things will get better for the next person..."
"No, the visit ends here." Yuheng envoy interrupted.
"But my lord—"
"Didn't you notice?" She swept away the snowflakes from her eyebrows and raised the paper umbrella again, "After these people left Qixing's territory, not only did their lives not get worse, but they actually got better and better. I can't help it now I wonder, maybe asking for the existence of the Privy Council is also a kind of arrogance?"
These words made the guards' expressions change drastically.
The person in front of me is the head of the Seven Stars! Although she has only been in power for a short time and lacks some prestige, the Yuheng Envoy is the Yuheng Envoy, and her symbolic meaning and magical abilities are impeccable. Even she said that, doesn't the Privy Council really want to...
"Don't worry, I'm just talking." Chu Pu shrugged, "The Nine Heavens Thunder Envoy does have his own way, but this does not mean that Qi Guo is completely better than us. Don't forget the Privy Council's plan to unify the six countries. The ultimate goal is to compete with other forces in the world, and Xia Fan is still only talking about this."
"Indeed, what about uniting all living things in the world... This is too exaggerated!"
"Didn't he say that if we stay for a while, we can see the evidence?"
"You're not looking for a few West End monsters to pretend to be envoys to pay tribute, are you?"
Seeing the guards' discussing expressions, Chu Pu couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in his heart.
Could this also be a form of arrogance
But she couldn't imagine how Xia Fan was going to "prove" that he was unifying the world. Even if he had a powerful fleet that could conquer the West Pole across the ocean, it would not be possible in two or three years. matter. Moreover, she was convinced that all the ocean-going forces of Qi State were now concentrated on the Mao and Qi routes, transporting war supplies to the frontline troops; the scattered news coming from the West Pole did not mention much about Xia. For Fan or Ning Wanjun, "civil strife", "dragon god" and "light-winged angel" are the words most widely circulated on the streets.
"Let's go back to the Foreign Affairs Building first." Chu Pu waved his hand to interrupt the discussion of his subordinates. "Think carefully over the next few days to see if there are any other ways to change the opinions of Qi Guo's upper echelons."
…
On the other side, Xia Fan passed through the tunnel system and returned to Ganzhou alone without the outside world knowing anything about it.
To be more precise, he passed through the spreading mountains to the south and entered the escape tower area again.
