“Bang, bang!”
At Xiao Fan's villa, there was a knock on the door.
Murong Die went over and opened the door. Feng Xinian was outside, and behind him were several servants from the Prince's Mansion, who were carrying things.
"Meet Feng Zhanshi."
Murong Die saluted.
Feng Xinian said with a smile, "Miss Xiaodie, you're welcome. The Winter Food Festival is coming, and these are gifts for Xiao Shidu."
"Feng Zhanshi."
Xiao Fan walked on the snow in the yard and reached the door.
The snow was quite heavy last night, almost covering Xiao Fan's ankles.
"Reader Xiao, I know you're afraid of the cold, so your holiday gift includes a new winter coat and various other things."
Feng Xinian said with a smile.
Xiao Fan cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Feng, thank you very much. This year's gifts seem to be much more than in previous years."
Feng Xinian said with a smile, "Mr. Xiao, you were only a ninth-rank tutor last year, so the festival gifts were less. But this year you are a fifth-rank tutor."
"After the Winter Food Festival, it will be the new year. In the new year, you, Xiao Shidu, will definitely be promoted. I will have to rely on you in the future."
Xiao Fan chuckled and said, "Secretary Feng, you are flattering me too much. You are a third-rank official, and I am only a fifth-rank official, which is nothing."
"Xiao Shidu, with your rate of improvement, it won't take long to reach the third rank."
Feng Xinian smiled and said, "Mr. Xiao, are you free the day after tomorrow? My youngest son is getting married the day after tomorrow, and I'd like to invite you, Mr. Xiao, to come over for a drink."
Xiao Fan nodded and said, "Secretary Feng, you know me well. I'm free every day. I'll definitely be there for the wedding the day after tomorrow."
"Reader Xiao, I'm waiting for your arrival."
Feng Xinian took out an invitation from his arms.
Soon Feng Xinian left, and Murong Die closed the courtyard door. She frowned slightly and said, "Master, I feel something is wrong."
Xiao Fan smiled and said, "Xiao Die, what's the problem?"
Murong Die said, "Master, you were poisoned before. Feng Zhanshi is well aware of this. He also knows that you helped General Jiang and others. Many people want to kill you."
"Why would he invite you then? As Feng Zhanshi's position, he probably wouldn't care about that little gift money."
Xiao Fan nodded slightly: "Someone must be putting pressure on him."
Murong Die's expression changed slightly.
"Master, if that's the case, why are you still going to the wedding? Master, if you don't want someone to bring gifts, then you shouldn't go."
Xiao Fan shook his head slightly. "Even if I were a fifth-rank tutor to the Crown Prince, and even if I helped Elder Jiang and the others, could I put on airs in front of Minister Feng? If I did that, others would definitely be suspicious."
Xiao Fan guessed that it was the Xuantian Sect that was acting in secret.
The Xuantian Sect's goal may not be to kill him. Situ Lu probably suspected him and wanted to find out how Emperor Xuanyin Wu died.
"Master, but——"
Before Murong Die could finish her words, Xiao Fan raised his hand to stop her.
"Xiao Die, I can't stay in the Prince's Mansion forever. Besides, we've become suspicious right away. Wouldn't the other party have thought of this?"
"But they still did it."
"This shows that the other party's purpose this time is probably not to kill people."
Xiao Fan smiled faintly.
He is not very worried now and feels much more confident than before.
His own strength is not weak. The three imperial weapons in his body have the perfect defense power of the Martial Emperor, and there are eight thousand Death Knights in the system space.
The Death Legion already had the strength of a perfect Martial Emperor before forming the battle formation, and they were further enhanced after the death of Emperor Xuanyin.
In addition, there is Qin Yuan in his system space.
Qin Yuan is still under his control.
“Bang, bang!”
Soon there was another knock on the door.
Murong Die opened the door and saw Jiang Gan outside.
Jiang Gan was followed by several servants, who also brought holiday gifts.
"Mr. Jiang, you... I haven't even visited you yet, so why are you sending me a holiday gift? This is unacceptable."
Xiao Fan said quickly.
Jiang Gan laughed and said, "Why not? If you hadn't cured me, would I have been able to reach the Martial Emperor level?"
"Xiaodie, make me a cup of hot tea."
"Xiao boy, you haven't been to the Jiang Mansion for several days. My chess skills have improved recently. Let's play a few games!"
The servant brought in the gifts and left. Jiang Gan and Xiao Fan went into the room.
"Xiao Xiao, you've been patient for several days before coming here. Emperor Xuanyin Wu is dead. Do you know who is behind this?"
Jiang Gan asked impatiently.
Playing chess now has to take the back seat.
Jiang Yuli was attacked, and then Jiang Wu and the others. Jiang Gan was very angry. After all, he was Emperor Wu and the great general who protected the country.
Xiao Fan nodded. "Old Jiang, the mastermind behind this is Prince Liang. The Black Flame Empire must have evidence that he wants to rebel."
"The cursed treasure that attacked Yu Li was provided by the Black Flame Empire. He was the one who took action. The same applies to Jiang Wu and the others."
Jiang Gan took a deep breath and said, "It really is him! He has secretly acquired the strength of a Martial Emperor and is indeed plotting something evil."
Xiao Fan chuckled and said, "Old Jiang, Emperor Xuanyin Wu also revealed some secrets of the Xuantian Sect, perhaps you can use them."
It took Xiao Fan a quarter of an hour to reveal several secrets about the Xuantian Sect.
The smile on Jiang Gan’s face grew wider and wider.
With these secrets, it would be easier for him to take control of Xuantian Sect.
If he mentioned it briefly to Situ Lu, Situ Lu would probably not investigate the matter of Emperor Xuanyin Wu's death any further.
And if you encounter any problems in the future, Xuantian Sect may be able to help.
"That fellow Taoist is really amazing."
“Although I have reached the Perfect Martial Emperor level now, even if I capture Emperor Xuanyin, it is unlikely that I can get these questions.”
Jiang Gan said with a smile.
At this time, Qin Zhentian and Qin Xuan also appeared in Xiao Fan's villa. Qin Zhentian already knew that Jiang Gan had come to Xiao Fan.
