Chapter 888 Chen Yufei's Plan

"Secret order? What order?" Wu Fan frowned slightly.

Wu Fan didn't have a good impression of the word "secret order". The old emperor gave him a secret order last time, asking him to assassinate the Nanping Emperor Wu Xian. However, he did not complete that task in the end. Of course, Wu Xian He did not survive, but died at the hands of others.

I thought that nothing would happen if I didn't return to Yanfeng Kingdom, but I never thought that the old emperor would actually convey the order to Nanping Kingdom.

"Your Majesty has an order. This secret order can only be known by the Viscount. Therefore, even a humble official does not know the content of this secret order." Wu Jian said, handing a small rolled-up piece of paper to Wu Fan.

Then, Wu Jian took a few steps back to avoid suspicion.

Wu Fan unfolded the note and looked at the contents on it. Wu Fan looked a little surprised when he saw the contents on the note.

In this secret order, the old emperor said several things.

First of all, the old emperor had already read the letter he had handed over to the old emperor through Li Ziyang, and agreed with his suggestion, giving up the attack on Nanping and letting Wu Fan maintain the relationship with Wu Ya. In terms of relationships, it is best to have Wu Ya completely in control.

Secondly, although the last mission to assassinate Wu Xian failed, the old emperor did not blame him. Of course, he did not punish him, because Wu Xian died in the end, and the old emperor's purpose had been achieved, so there was no need. If we pursue this matter further, what's more, Wu Fan now has an unusual relationship with Wu Ya, and the old emperor needs to control Nanping Kingdom through his hands.

The last thing is the focus of this note and the real content of this secret order: assassinate the second prince of Shuiyue Kingdom, Yelu Hongfei!

It was precisely because of this content that Wu Fan looked shocked.

Because the last part of the series of missions Wu Fan took on was to assassinate the second prince of Shuiyue Kingdom, Yelu Hongfei!

It was a coincidence that the person the old emperor secretly ordered him to kill was actually the same person he needed to kill for the series of missions.

Did the second prince of Shuiyue Kingdom do something outrageous? Why do so many people want to kill him?

Thinking that the other party was the mastermind behind the massacre of the Nanping royal family, Wu Fan instantly lost sympathy for the other party being targeted in this way.

"General Wu, I am aware of your Majesty's orders, and I will complete the tasks assigned by your Majesty." Wu Fan put away the note and said to Wu Jian solemnly.

Anyway, the second prince of Shuiyue Kingdom is the person Wu Fan must kill, so naturally Wu Fan will not accept the old emperor's secret order. Killing one person can complete two tasks. Speaking of which, Wu Fan earned it.

"In this case, it's time to say goodbye to your humble position and leave. If Sir Viscount needs any help, just ask." Wu Jian said to Wu Fan.

In Wu Jian's view, Wu Fan was a person deeply trusted by the old emperor and a very capable person. He was obviously a viscount of Yanfeng Kingdom, but he was able to hang out in the court of Nanping Kingdom and did well. One point, Wu Jian deeply admires him for his strong ability and the trust of His Majesty. In Wu Jian's view, Wu Fan's future is bound to be limitless. Naturally, he does not mind having a good relationship with Wu Fan. What's more, the two of them belong to the same military general group. People in the same camp should naturally get closer and closer.

"Master Wu, you are very polite. You and I are both working for His Majesty, so we should help each other. There is nothing we should not do," Wu Fan said.

"That's what the Viscount said." Wu Jian replied, and at the same time, his impression of Wu Fan became a little better in his heart.

Wu Jian did not stay long in Shanling Pass. After all, this was a border pass and a war was going on. As a person from the Yanfeng Kingdom, he could easily cause misunderstandings if he stayed here for too long.

Wu Fan personally sent Wu Jian out of the city. After that, he returned to his residence and waited for the end of the transmission time.

On the other side, Chen Yufei, who was under house arrest, was not willing to fail. After changing into night clothes, he secretly sneaked into the residence of his old subordinates. In order to prevent these people from secretly sabotaging things like during the day, Chen Yufei's These old subordinates received the same treatment as him, they were removed from the city and all were placed under house arrest.

"Sir? Are you here?"

"Yeah." Chen Yufei walked in with an ugly expression.

"Sir, you haven't been discovered by anyone outside, have you? That Pei Yu has gone too far. He actually arranged for someone to monitor me and put me under house arrest." Na Bujiang said angrily.

"Isn't it the same for me?" Chen Yufei said in a bad tone: "If this continues, it may not be as simple as house arrest. He will definitely continue to investigate what happened during the day. Once he finds out, both you and I will die. !”

Chen Yufei knew very well what kind of crime it was in the military to let the enemy go to the city without permission. It could be said that as long as Pei Yu found the evidence, they would be dead.

Hearing Chen Yufei's words, the general's face became a little ugly. This was also what he was worried about. They were originally from Chen Yufei's side, and Pei Yu would definitely not be soft on them.

"Don't worry, we haven't lost yet!" Chen Yufei said.

"Sir, is there anything you can do?" the subordinate asked quickly.

"Yes." Chen Yufei nodded: "Right now, if we want to make a comeback, we can only rely on the Blackwater Kingdom's army outside the city."

"My lord, what you mean is..."

"I plan to leave the city later to contact the generals of the Blackwater Kingdom and discuss cooperation with them." Chen Yufei said.

"cooperate?"

"That's right." Chen Yufei said, "I plan to let them enter the city and let them plunder the city and even some surrounding towns. However, they cannot stay here all the time, nor can they occupy Shanling Pass. Once they have gained enough benefits, they must leave. Of course, the way to leave is to escape after being "defeated" by me."

"Will they agree to this?" The subordinate was a little worried.

"They will definitely agree!" Chen Yufei said, "From their offensive, they obviously want to and are anxious to capture Shanling Pass. Without our help, it is basically impossible for them to capture Shanling Pass in a short time, so Peng Chuan will definitely cooperate with us."

Chen Yufei's confidence comes from his observations over the past two days. He found that the offensive of the Black Water Kingdom's army outside the city was more fierce and urgent than before. It was obvious that they wanted to capture Shanling Pass in a short time.

It just so happened that the defense of Shanling Pass was not bad, and the number of troops stationed there was not a small number. Pei Yu was not a mediocre person, so it was difficult for Peng Chuan to realize his idea of ​​capturing Shanling Pass in a short time.

In this situation, Chen Yufei proposed cooperation, and he believed that Peng Chuan would definitely agree.

However, Chen Yufei only saw that Peng Chuan was eager to break through Shanling Pass, but he never thought that the other party's goal this time was not just to plunder the property and population of Shanling Pass and some surrounding towns.

The other party's appetite and ambition this time were very big!
