After being rejected, he emptied the mansion and went into exile

Xiang Hongxuan was not surprised to see the eldest prince walk in.

After all, Pan Ye is the commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, so it is impossible to hide it from him.

Xiang Hongxuan did a great job by not letting him know immediately.

This is also the reason why the eldest prince is afraid of seeing Pan Ye.

There are almost no secrets in front of Pan Ye.

Of course, if you want to have a secret, you can have one.

That means the emperor is just too lazy to investigate.

Pan Ye was raised by the previous commander since he was a child, and was taken to the palace when he was six years old.

Therefore, Pan Ye had no playmates, and the only people he was familiar with were the princes and princesses in the palace.

By the time he was ten years old, he could follow the Jinyiwei to carry out missions.

In the eldest prince's impression, he has never seen Pan Ye idle.

Pan Ye looked at the eldest prince who was winking at Xiang Hongxuan, and first saluted.

Then he said, "Grand Prince, why are you in Quzhou?"

The eldest prince put his hands behind his back and said, "Well, I don't need to tell you about my affairs."

Pan Ye: "Could it be that the eldest prince sneaked out?"

The eldest prince looked frightened and said, "Don't talk nonsense. I can't argue with you. I'm going to eat now."

Xiang Hongxuan watched the eldest prince run out of the house in a panic. If Xiang Hongxuan had not received some information from the conversation with the eldest prince just now, he would have really believed the eldest prince's lies.

Pan Ye was obviously used to the eldest prince's madness. He just blinked and said nothing.

Only Xiang Hongxuan and Pan Ye were left in the room, and they stood facing each other.

Pan Ye raised the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "General Xiang's hospitality is really not commendable."

Xiang Hongxuan said with a stern face, "I wonder what brings you to the military camp to see me, Commander Pan?"

Pan Ye didn't interact with Xiang Hongxuan very often, to be more precise, not as much as he interacted with the eldest prince.

But he also knew what kind of person Xiang Hongxuan was, so he didn't care.

Compared with Xiang Hongxuan, Pan Ye just did a heartless job.

But Xiang Hongxuan always gives people a distant feeling.

Pan Ye: "I am escorting the four members of the Shen family to Quzhou on the orders of the Emperor. The Emperor's intention is to keep the Shen family alive."

Xiang Hongxuan knew that Pan Ye would not tell him anything even if he asked again, so he just said, "I know."

Pan Ye asked, "Aren't you curious about why the Emperor keeps the Shen family?"

Xiang Hongxuan stared straight ahead, not even glancing at Pan Ye. He only heard him say, "If I ask you, will you tell me? If the emperor wanted me to know, he would have told me last time he went back."

Pan Ye snorted and laughed, "Huh, I didn't expect that you are the most sensible one."

Xiang Hongxuan: "You don't need to test me. Keeping an eye on the Qiang people every day is tiring enough. I don't have the heart to get involved in what's happening in the capital."

Pan Ye smiled evilly and said, "Oh? Including the Third Prince?"

Xiang Hongxuan turned around and glared at Pan Ye. Pan Ye was not only vicious but also very difficult to deal with.

"What happened to the Third Prince?"

It was true that he and the Third Prince had not seen each other for some time, and they wrote less frequently.

Pan Ye said, "Nothing, I just wanted to see your caring expression."

Xiang Hongxuan clenched his fists and finally endured it.

Seeing this, Pan Ye stopped joking and said, "This is the best way. Don't take sides. You can still live for a while."

Xiang Hongxuan was a little surprised. He looked at Pan Ye and saw that he had a sad look on his face.

He said: "Someone has already taken action. The eldest prince has been kidnapped."

The reason why Xiang Hongxuan told Pan Ye about this matter was because the emperor would definitely tell him.

But perhaps only the emperor and the eldest prince know the purpose of the eldest prince coming here.

Pan Ye was a little surprised at first, then he smiled and said, "Are you all here?"

Xiang Hongxuan nodded. "You guessed right. The Qiang people, the Chiyan Gang, and the royal family were all involved."

Pan Ye shook his head and said, "There is another one."

Xiang Hongxuan: "Who?"

Pan Ye looked at Xiang Hongxuan and said, "A remnant of the previous dynasty."

Xiang Hongxuan was a little surprised. It was the first time he heard that there were still people in the previous dynasty thinking about rebellion.

Pan Ye used his eyes to signal Xiang Hongxuan not to spread the news, "Not many people know about this."

Xiang Hongxuan: "Then why did you tell me?"

Pan Ye patted Xiang Hongxuan on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Of course I don't want you to die so early."

"Okay, that's enough. I need to stay here for a few days. When the emperor's decree arrives... we'll talk later."

After Pan Ye finished speaking, he left with a swagger.

Who would have thought that Pan Ye, who was cold-blooded and ruthless in front of outsiders, would be unusually talkative when facing Xiang Hongxuan.

In fact, only Xiang Hongxuan knew that Pan Ye had always been a talkative person.

It's just that he has had few friends since he was a child, and he has always done things that make people hate him, so he is notorious.

Xiang Hongxuan thought about it and wondered when Pan Ye started talking to him more often?

It should have been ten years ago when he saved Pan Ye at the palace night banquet.

At that time, all the children from royal and noble families bullied Pan Ye.

He happened to be encountered by Xiang Hongxuan, who was also being ridiculed. However, Xiang Hongxuan relied on the fact that he was the son of a military general and had some brains, and he fooled those bullies into a daze.

Those children were beaten and didn't dare go back and tell their families.

Because Xiang Hongxuan said that anyone who goes back and tells his family would be a coward.

Pan Ye is not incapable of protecting himself, he is just very inferior.

Although after that day, the relationship between the two of them was also distant.

Xiang Hongxuan’s best brother is still the third prince, but everyone who is familiar with Pan Ye knows that he treats Xiang Hongxuan differently.

At the very least, he would remind Xiang Hongxuan when he might die.

For example, just now, if Pan Ye had not mentioned the remnants of the previous dynasty, Xiang Hongxuan would not have known that the situation had become so serious.

After seeing off the eldest prince and Pan Ye, Xiang Hongxuan sat alone on a stool, recalling his conversation with the two.

He thought about the eldest prince's words and actions, and felt that the emperor had two purposes in asking him to come here.

One is the Qiang people and him, and the other is using him to lure out the person behind him.

It is obvious that the emperor both trusts the eldest prince and is using him.

Similarly, the emperor trusted Xiang Hongxuan, but was also worried that he would collude with the Qiang people.

So Pan Ye came to the military camp, one to send the Shen family away, and the other to have the same mission as the eldest prince.

It's about finding evidence and finding the right opportunity to defeat those people.

Xiang Hongxuan guessed that Shen Maoshan's role should be the same.

The emperor also did not trust Pan Ye, otherwise he would not have failed to tell him the whereabouts of the eldest prince.

Xiang Hongxuan thought, he didn't know whether the eldest prince had figured this out or not.

But Pan Ye must have thought it through before he said those words to him.

In other words, the Qiang people, the prince's forces, the Chiyan Gang, and the remnants of the previous dynasty wanted to divide the Jiuzhou Kingdom.

The battlefield is the border of Quzhou!

Xiang Hongxuan pinched his brows, he was destined to be unable to escape.

The eldest prince's voice called him from not far away. Xiang Hongxuan answered and walked out.

The Shen family was also worried, and the situation was in a mess.
