Chapter 1513 Mission Completed

"Is the second prince of Shuiyue Kingdom really dead?" The old emperor of Yanfeng Kingdom looked at the spy who came to report the news with a surprised look on his face.

Whether it is Yanfeng Kingdom, Tianji Kingdom, or Shuiyue Kingdom, they will send spies to other countries, especially between the four superpowers, there are more spies, so the news that the second prince of Shuiyue Kingdom was killed spread to several major countries at the first time.

The reason why the old emperor of Yanfeng Kingdom was surprised was that he had sent people to assassinate the second prince of Shuiyue Kingdom before, but he had always received news of failed missions. Although the assassins did not reveal their identities, no one succeeded.

However, now the second prince of Shuiyue Kingdom is dead, the old emperor of Yanfeng Kingdom subconsciously thought of the task he had assigned before.

"Yes, Your Majesty, the second prince of Shuiyue was stabbed to death in Yangyu Pass of Heishui. This news has now spread throughout Shuiyue." The spy replied, "The emperor of Shuiyue is very angry and is sending people to investigate this matter."

"Heh, it would be strange if Yelu Zong was not anxious if his son, whom he regarded as his heir, was killed." The old emperor sneered.

Even the old emperor of Yanfeng knew that Yelu Zong favored Yelu Hongfei. Otherwise, he would not have sent people to kill Yelu Hongfei at the beginning, but to assassinate Yelu Honglin.

"Do you know who killed Yelu Hongfei? Is it one of ours?" the old emperor asked.

Because he was sending people to carry out the task of assassinating Yelu Hongfei, maybe Yelu Hongfei was killed by the people he sent.

However, the spy shook his head and said, "It wasn't our people who did it. After the news came out, I have asked our people. They either failed the mission and were killed, or they haven't taken action yet."

"It wasn't our people? Could it be assassins from other countries?" The old emperor was slightly stunned and said, "Or, was it the eldest prince of Shuiyue Kingdom who did it?"

The spy shook his head again, but this time he didn't deny it, but he was not sure.

The old emperor thought for a while, and suddenly, a figure popped up in his mind, muttering to himself, "Could it be him?"

At this time, the eunuch outside shouted, "Your Majesty, Li Ziyang of the Ministry of Enfeoffment wants to see you."

"Li Ziyang? What does he want?" The old emperor was slightly puzzled, but he said, "Let him in."

Then, the old emperor waved his hand, and the spy disappeared into the darkness.

Soon, the door was opened and Li Ziyang walked in.

"Greetings, Your Majesty." Li Ziyang saluted respectfully.

"Get up." The old emperor said, "What's the matter with you coming to see me?"

"Your Majesty, I have a letter from Wu Fan, the Viscount Wu, and he asked me to pass it to Your Majesty." Li Ziyang took out a letter from his arms and said to the old emperor.

"Wu Fan?" The old emperor's eyelids jumped.

He just thought of this person, but he didn't expect to hear this name again now.

"Yes." Li Ziyang didn't know what the old emperor was thinking, and still replied respectfully.

"Bring it here." The old emperor said.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Li Ziyang presented the letter respectfully, and then returned to his seat. He didn't dare to look up, but he was looking at the old emperor from the corner of his eyes.

Li Ziyang was still very curious about the content of the letter, but Wu Fan sealed the letter, so he couldn't peek. He could only be curious in his heart and guess what Wu Fan wrote in the letter.

The old emperor opened the envelope and looked at the content of the letter. Even though he had seen a lot of things, his face couldn't help but change slightly.

The content of the letter was very simple, with only five short words:

The mission has been completed!

The letter did not say what the mission was, and even if others read it, they would not know what Wu Fan was referring to.

But the old emperor knew it, because he only gave Wu Fan one mission: assassinate the second prince of Shuiyue Kingdom, Yelu Hongfei!

And Wu Fan now wrote such a letter, obviously targeting this matter, that is to say, the second prince of Shuiyue Kingdom, Yelu Hongfei, was indeed killed by Wu Fan!

Before Li Ziyang came in, the old emperor was still thinking whether Yelu Hongfei was killed by Wu Fan. After all, Wu Fan was a task he assigned alone, and he had no connection with other assassins, so it was normal that the spy just now did not know about Wu Fan's situation.

But the old emperor felt that since so many assassins had failed, Wu Fan was unlikely to succeed. Perhaps Wu Fan was not ready to carry out this mission. After all, this was a dangerous mission. It was normal for Wu Fan to have more preparation time, or simply not dare to carry it out.

However, the old emperor did not expect that Wu Fan actually went there, and really killed Yelu Hongfei.

"This Wu Fan really surprised and delighted me." The old emperor thought to himself.

Wu Fan successfully completed such a dangerous and difficult task, which was enough to show that Wu Fan's ability was really strong. Therefore, the old emperor looked at Wu Fangu again in his heart, and Wu Fan's position in his heart became deeper.

"Are you close to Wu Fan?" The old emperor put down the letter and looked at Li Ziyang and said, "He passed the letter to me twice through you."

"Wu Zijue is an easy-going person. When I was in Yanyang City, I had some contacts with him." Li Ziyang replied.

Because he didn't know whether the old emperor's impression of Wu Fan was good or bad, Li Ziyang didn't dare to talk about the relationship between himself and Wu Fan too well. Of course, he couldn't say that there was no connection. After all, Wu Fan was able to use them both. It is impossible to transfer letters several times without contact.

In fact, Li Ziyang was not very willing to help Wu Fan deliver the letter. He was not very willing the first time because he did not know the content of the letter. If Wu Fan angered the old emperor, wouldn't he also suffer? ?

Therefore, Li Ziyang was quite repulsive to this kind of thing in his heart. If Zhou Guang hadn't repeatedly requested him, he would not have been willing to take such a trip this time. He didn't want to take risks for Wu Fan's sake.

The old emperor nodded and said: "Okay, you can go down. If Wu Fan asks you to deliver something to me again, you must deliver it as soon as possible. Do you understand?"

Li Ziyang's heart skipped a beat, but he responded: "Wei Chen understands."

Li Ziyang was not stupid. Through Wu Fan's two letters and the old emperor's words, he immediately understood that the old emperor should have some relatively private tasks for Wu Fan to carry out.

However, what Li Ziyang couldn't figure out was that since the old emperor asked Wu Fan to perform a secret mission, why didn't Wu Fan directly send the letter to the old emperor instead of letting him deliver it to him?

However, even if he couldn't figure it out, it didn't stop Li Ziyang from agreeing to the matter. Once the old emperor opened his mouth, he had to agree even if he didn't agree.
