Film and Television Daqing: Starting with the Heaven-Covering Technique and the Devouring Demon Art

"After all, if one of the princes were to fall under the charge of colluding with Northern Qi, that prince could be directly eliminated from the position of heir to the throne!"

Fan Xian shook his head and continued, "So it definitely wasn't them!"

Fan Jian frowned, as if deep in thought. After a while, he asked again:

"Then what are your plans next?"

Without hesitation, Fan Xian said decisively:

"Naturally, we must find out who is behind the assassination attempt on me and bring them to justice."

"I will not feel at ease until the mastermind behind these two assassination attempts is brought to justice."

Seeing that Fan Xian's thoughts were clear, Fan Jian nodded slightly and said:

"It's good that you know. Some things are not as simple as they seem on the surface. Just keep that in mind."

Fan Xian nodded and said, "Don't worry, Father, I understand."

Fan Jian paused for a moment, then continued:

"You were saved by the Second Prince's guards today, so now you are definitely considered to be on the Second Prince's side by outsiders."

Fan Xian frowned and asked in confusion:

"Father, could it be..."

Fan Jian interrupted him, "Don't overthink it. You just need to be more careful in the future."

Fan Xian nodded seriously and said, "I know what to do."

Fan Jian sighed, his face full of worry, and said:

“I really regret bringing you to Kyoto now. If you had lived in Danzhou all along, you wouldn’t be facing this situation now.”

Fan Xian smiled slightly, seemingly unconcerned, and said:

"Since we're already here, we have to face what we have to face."

Fan Jian waved his hand, looking helpless, and said:

"Alright, you can go back now and get some rest."

"Yes, I take my leave."

Fan Xian bowed slightly and then turned to walk towards his own courtyard.

Fan Jian shook his head as he watched Fan Xian leave, his face clouded with worry, and he sighed.

"well.

Fan Jian planned to talk to his wife to ease his worries.

Just then, a voice suddenly rang out.

"Lord Fan, what's wrong? Why are you sighing like this? Why don't you tell me? Perhaps I can help you in some way."

Upon hearing the sudden sound, Fan Jian was startled. His body stiffened as if struck by lightning, and he turned around to look, only to find no one behind him.

He was terrified, thinking he had encountered something unclean.

Lord Fan, are you looking for me?

Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of Fan Jian, startling him so much that he uncontrollably took five steps back before stopping.

Fan Jian clutched his chest, which had nearly stopped him in shock, and stared wide-eyed at the figure in front of him.

After finally seeing the figure in front of him clearly, he exclaimed in surprise:

"Your Highness?"

Li Chengtian laughed when he saw Fan Jian, who was quite frightened:

"Lord Fan, aren't you being a little too timid?"

Fan Jian was speechless. "You son of a bitch, showing up like this in the middle of the night, anyone would be scared, okay?"

But Fan Jian didn't dare to say what was on his mind, and then cautiously began to look around.

Seeing this, Li Chengtian directly said to Fan Jian:

"Don't worry, everyone around here is within my perception; there's no one here."

Fan Jian then remembered that Li Chengtian was not only a prince but also a ninth-rank expert, so he bowed to Li Chengtian and said:

"Your humble servant pays respects to Your Highness the Second Prince."

"Get up, Lord Fan. There's only the two of us now, so there's no need for such formalities."

Li Chengtian said calmly.

After saying that, Li Chengtian came to Fan Jian's side and mentioned Fan Jian.

In a flash, they arrived directly on the roof of the Fan family's study.

This is the highest point in the Fan residence, so not only do you not have to worry about being discovered, but you can also enjoy the moon.

Fan Jian was so shocked by Li Chengtian's move that he couldn't recover for a moment.

Li Chengtian wasn't in a hurry, but found a place to sit down and began to admire the moon.

It took Fan Jian a while to recover from his shock. He looked at Li Chengtian and asked:

"His Highness is indeed a man of great talent!"

He had actually managed to break through to the Grandmaster realm without anyone knowing.

Li Chengtian smiled but did not answer Fan Jian's question.

Seeing that Li Chengtian neither admitted nor denied it, Fan Jian stopped talking about it and instead asked:

"May I ask what brings Your Highness to visit me so late at night?"

Li Chengtian, who was admiring the moon, turned to Fan Jian and said, "Before we get down to business, I have a question for you, Lord Fan."

Fan Jian's heart tightened, and he quickly lowered his head and said, "Please speak freely, Your Highness. I will certainly tell you everything I know without reservation."

A slight smile appeared on Li Chengtian's lips as he leisurely said:

"Today His Majesty asked me a question, saying that it is important to secure his position."

So I'd also like to ask Lord Fan, what do you think is most important for securing His Majesty's position?

Upon hearing Li Chengtian's words, Fan Jian's eyes widened instantly, and a look of astonishment appeared on his face. For a moment, he was at a loss for words.

After all, this issue involves the struggle for and succession to the throne, and for them, as ministers, it is not a topic that can be discussed lightly.

Chapter 32 Fan Jian: Are you fucking kidding me?

Fan Jian's expression remained unchanged, as calm as still water, but his slightly trembling hands betrayed his inner turmoil. After taking a deep breath, he said:

"Your Highness, I do not know the answer to this question."

Li Chengtian slowly stood up, a mocking smile on his face, his tone full of amusement and provocation, "Hehehe, do you not know or dare not say!"

Upon hearing Li Chengtian's words, Fan Jian trembled slightly and quickly lowered his head, no longer daring to meet Li Chengtian's gaze.

A blush of shame now appeared on his originally fair face.

Li Chengtian did not press Fan Jian further, but instead began to explain his own thoughts:

"Do you know what I said to His Majesty back then?"

I said that as long as one surpasses the strength of a Grandmaster and reaches the point of destroying a city with a single punch, no one will dare to question it. Without questioning, there's no such thing as instability. Lord Fan, do you agree with me?

Fan Jian was stunned upon hearing Li Chengtian's words, and muttered to himself:

"One punch can destroy a city!"

Are you kidding me?

Why don't you say it would be even more satisfying to destroy a country with one punch? I think then people would be begging you to sit on the throne.

However, he merely smiled slightly and did not offer any opinion.

Seeing Fan Jian's expression, Li Chengtian's lips curled up slightly. He knew that the other party must be secretly mocking his wishful thinking, but Li Chengtian no longer needed to prove anything to anyone.

He calmly and slowly said:

"Besides the 30,000 Red Armored Army soldiers under the control of the Minister of War, His Majesty also has another 20,000 Red Armored Army soldiers firmly in the hands of Lord Fan."

Oh, by the way, I also heard that even the Tiger Guards are personally under Lord Fan's control!

Upon hearing this, Fan Jian's heart skipped a beat, a look of shock flashed in his eyes, and he stared at Li Chengtian in disbelief, saying:

"Your Highness, you could not possibly be..."

He originally thought that Li Chengtian's display of Grandmaster strength in front of him was just an attempt to recruit him or Fan Xian into his camp, but he never expected that Li Chengtian's ambition was so great.

After all, who would have thought that this second prince, who had always kept a low profile and had no presence, would have such lofty ambitions?

It should be noted that in the entire Daqing, the three most powerful military units are the Black Cavalry, the Red Armor Army, and the Tiger Guard.

Among them, the Black Riders were basically controlled by Chen Pingping. This army was famous for its fierce fighting power and ruthless methods, and even brought terrifying legends to the Northern Qi.
