Fan Xian was assassinated by Lin Gong in Joy of Life. Lin Gong had been instructed by the Eldest Princess, Li Yunrui, to act because Fan Xian was believed to be unable to truly control the wealth of the palace treasury. Fan Xian's enemy was the future Emperor, the Crown Prince. After Lin Gong passed away, Prime Minister Lin found Fan Xian and showed him Lin Gong's calligraphy when he was young, indicating that he had great ambitions since he was young. In addition, there were also people who speculated that the real culprit behind Fan Xian's assassination might be Lin Wan 'er's second brother, Lin Gong, because he did not want his sister to marry Fan Xian. However, the search results did not mention who the culprit was.
The reason Fan Xian was killed was because the Second Prince had sent Xie Bi 'an to intercept Fan Xian's diplomatic mission and threaten Fan Xian to submit to him. However, in this dangerous situation, Yan Bingyun suddenly attacked and stabbed Fan Xian, causing him to fall to the ground. This sudden action surprised everyone, but it was said that this was to avoid the Second Prince's encirclement. Fan Xian had not truly died. Instead, he had adopted a strategy of faking his death. Fan Xian had anticipated the Second Prince's pursuit, so he had taken protective measures before he was stabbed. Moreover, reinforcements would come to save him. Thus, Fan Xian was not actually dead. As for why Yan Bingyun wanted to stab Fan Xian, the exact reason was still unclear.
The mastermind behind Fan Xian's death in Joy of Life was Lin Gong. Lin Gong was the Eldest Princess 'brother. He had worked with Wu Bo' an to secretly plan the assassination of Fan Xian on Niulan Street. In addition, the Second Prince and Eldest Princess also participated in the plan to assassinate Fan Xian.
