Chapter 1440 It’s Settled

"Assassinate the second prince?" Wu Fan looked at Yelu Honglin in surprise.

When Yelu Honglin said that he wanted to explain something to Wu Fan, the two of them had left the others alone and walked forward alone. At that time, Wu Fan realized that the matter that Yelu Honglin wanted to explain to him was probably not something that could be put on the table. Otherwise, I would not deliberately leave other people aside.

However, Wu Fan did not expect that what Yelu Honglin wanted him to do was to assassinate Yelu Hongfei.

Who did Yelu Hongfei offend? Why are there people everywhere trying to kill him?

Wu Ya's series of missions, the old emperor of Yanfeng Kingdom, and the current eldest prince of Shuiyue Kingdom, there are now three forces that want to assassinate Yelu Hongfei, and, coincidentally, these three forces all want to assassinate Yelu Hongfei. He must use Wu Fan's help to kill Yelu Hongfei.

In fact, before Yelu Honglin handed over the task, what Wu Fan was thinking about was: No matter what Yelu Honglin told him, he would agree to it first, and then find a chance to leave here. As for Yelu Honglin's task, love So and so, anyway, he won’t do it.

But what Yelu Honglin told him was to assassinate Yelu Hongfei, which made Wu Fan forget his plan for a moment.

"That's right." There was no concealed murderous intent on Yelu Honglin's face: "I want you to kill my second brother!"

"But he is the prince after all." Wu Fan said.

"He is a traitor!" Yelu Honglin said indifferently: "A traitor who is trying to usurp the throne! That throne is mine! He shouldn't have any unreasonable thoughts about that position. He should be killed!"

This is not the first time that Yelu Honglin has shown his murderous intention towards Yelu Hongfei in front of Wu Fan, but this time, he has shown it more thoroughly and unabashedly. It may be because of Wu Fan's previous words. , which made him trust Wu Fan even more.

"You go and help me kill him now!" Yelu Honglin said: "He is now at Yangyu Pass in the Blackwater Kingdom. His father sent him to assist the Blackwater Kingdom's army to resist the attack of the Nanping Kingdom. Those bastards cannot be our opponents from the Shuiyue Kingdom, so the traitor will definitely win this battle! Once he returns to the court in victory, his status in the hearts of the court officials and his father will be even higher. The prestige among the people will also be improved. When the time comes, his threat to me will be even greater. I will never allow this to happen to him! "

Yelu Honglin has always had murderous intentions towards his second brother, and as his father has become more and more fond of his second brother in recent years, his murderous intentions have become more and more determined.

Yelu Honglin did not tell Wu Fan that Yelu Hongfei's expedition to the Blackwater Kingdom was not as simple as assisting the people of the Blackwater Kingdom to resist the attack of the Nanping Kingdom. He might even be responsible for the follow-up attack on the Yanfeng Kingdom. The vanguard of the times!

Once that happens, Yelu Hongfei's status will be even higher. If they successfully defeat Yanfeng Country and annex Yanfeng Country, then Yelu Hongfei's contribution can even greatly affect his position as crown prince!

This situation is definitely not what Yelu Honglin wants to see.

Yelu Honglin's words made Wu Fan frown slightly, and his impression of Yelu Honglin worsened.

Although Wu Fan is not from Nanping, he is now an important minister of Nanping, and he has a close relationship with Wu Ya. Yelu Honglin talks like a bastard of Nanping. Such a title makes Wu Fan feel extremely uncomfortable.

"I really want to share the worries of His Highness the Crown Prince." Wu Fan said calmly: "But because of my limited ability, I might not be able to complete the tasks assigned by His Highness. In order not to delay His Highness the Crown Prince's important events, His Highness the Crown Prince should find someone else."

"No, I believe you can do it." Yelu Honglin was full of confidence in Wu Fan: "You have skills and brains, and you can definitely complete this task. Don't worry, as long as you complete this task, I will never I've treated you badly."

Yelu Honglin began to brainwash Wu Fan and deceive him.

"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince really overestimates his humble position. He is just an ordinary eunuch. As a prince, His Royal Highness the Second Prince naturally has many guards around him. The skills of this humble position are insignificant in front of the guards around His Highness the Second Prince. ." Wu Fan said.

"It's true that he has guards around him, but don't worry, I won't let you fight alone." Yelu Honglin said: "Yesterday, I sent a team of people to assassinate him. I told them Don't worry, when you arrive at Yangyu Pass, all those people will be under your command. With his help, I believe you will succeed."

Yelu Honglin's desire to kill Yelu Hongfei was not a sudden whim, but he had had this idea for a long time. Originally, Wu Fan was not included in his plan. Yesterday, he had indeed sent a team of people to Yangyu Pass. Assassinated Yelu Hongfei, but now that he met Wu Fan here who had already disappeared, and was pleasantly surprised to find that Wu Fan also had good skills, so naturally he would not let Wu Fan go.

How could he be willing to let go of a master who could be used and had brains?

Therefore, Yelu Honglin repeatedly insisted that Wu Fan assassinate Yelu Hongfei.

"Your Highness the Crown Prince..." Wu Fan wanted to say something else, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yelu Honglin.

"Okay, don't say any more, this matter is settled!" Yelu Honglin assumed the posture of a prince: "You pack up and set off immediately. I will wait for your triumphant return in the palace. At that time, I will serve you Take good care of yourself.”

Seeing Yelu Honglin's persistence, Wu Fan had no choice but to say, "Yes, I humbly accept the order."

Seeing Wu Fan agree, Yelu Honglin smiled again. If it was someone else, he wouldn't have said so much nonsense. However, Wu Fan was a little different. Yelu Honglin recognized his ability, and Yelu Honglin also believed that he could be a little more patient with these capable people.

Of course, in Yelu Honglin's heart, Wu Fan was only "slightly" different from others. In essence, there was not much difference. In his heart, Wu Fan was just a chess piece that could be used like others, and he could help him eliminate the threat. He didn't really think Wu Fan was that special.

Just like this assassination mission, Yelu Honglin knew the dangers. It was definitely a life-or-death struggle. Those who were sent out by him yesterday were basically dead soldiers. Yelu Honglin didn't think they could come back alive. No matter whether they could complete the mission or not, it was almost difficult for them to survive. After all, Yelu Hongfei was not a waste, and the men around him were not fools.

Knowing that the mission was dangerous, Yelu Honglin still insisted on letting Wu Fan carry out this mission. In his opinion, if Wu Fan completed the mission, it would be worth it even if he was killed after the mission.
