The best ring

Wu Fan also knew that if Wu Ya was captured or killed, the old emperor would definitely reward him, but Wu Fan did not choose to do that.

He had already rescued him once yesterday. If the old emperor still had some conscience, he would not forget his contribution. Handing over Wu Ya now would be just the icing on the cake. Any additional reward would not be very good.

Moreover, Wu Fan's status was too low before. If he was promoted too much at once, he might be hated by others. Before, he was only promoted from baron to viscount. There were people like Zhao Yingfeng who were jealous of him. If he was promoted too much this time, he might be jealous. , there will be more people who hate themselves. I still have a shallow foundation, but I can't stand so many people behind my back.

What's more, it is not easy to trigger a task, and it is even more difficult to trigger a special task. Wu Fan is very satisfied with the reward after completing the last special task. He also has great expectations for the reward after completing this special task, and naturally he will not take it lightly. Hand over the third princess of Nanping Kingdom.

"Why should I believe you?" Princess Wu Ya said coldly: "How do I know if you have other plans?"

"Because in this huge Yanfeng Kingdom, you have no choice but to believe in me." Wu Fan said.

Princess Wu Ya was silent. Although she was unwilling to admit it, she knew that Wu Fan's words were not wrong. In this strange country, she had no one to rely on except herself. She seemed to have no choice but to believe in Wu Fan.

"Now tell me why you appear here." Wu Fan said.

Wu Ya remained silent, seemingly not wanting to answer Wu Fan's question.

"Your attitude is unacceptable." Wu Fan said, "I saved you, and I am the only one who can help you now. You should trust me and let me know more about your situation, so that I can help you better. "

"Because it's safe here." Wu Ya said coldly.

"Safe?" Wu Fan asked doubtfully: "Do you know where this is? This is an official inn! It's full of court officials like me. You actually said it's safe here. No matter who discovers you except me, They will definitely report you.”

"I won't give them the chance to report me." Wu Ya said.

"I had plenty of opportunities to report you before." Wu Fan said with a smile.

"That was an accident!" Wu Ya said: "I have investigated before. Except for you, all the people living here are civil servants. Even if I am injured, they can't be my opponent. I just didn't expect you to be a little The militia captain actually has such skills."

"It seems that your assassination of His Majesty was not a sudden move. You even thought of your own retreat." Wu Fan said.

"That's right." Wu Ya said, "The most dangerous place is the safest place. They wouldn't think that I would hide here."

"Then why don't you hide in the palace? It's the most dangerous and safest place." Wu Fan said.

However, what Wu Ya said still made some sense. There were soldiers searching everywhere in the city. Maybe the entire imperial capital had been searched over and over, but they were still safe here. Obviously, those responsible for searching for the assassins did not expect that , the assassin will boldly hide in a post station full of officials.

"Do you think I'm an idiot?" Wu Ya glared at Wu Fan and said, "The security of your Yanfeng Kingdom's palace must be several times tighter than before. Not even a fly can fly out. If I hide inside, Sooner or later he will be found."

"You are quite smart." Wu Fan smiled and said: "But why do you want to assassinate our Majesty? Your Nanping Kingdom is a vassal state of our Yanfeng Kingdom. The relationship between the two countries has always been pretty good, so why did you come to assassinate him? Aren’t you afraid that our Yanfeng Kingdom will attack your Nanping Kingdom?”

"We have a good relationship? Humph!" Wu Ya sneered and said, "That was before!"

"What do you mean?" Wu Fan asked.

"In recent years, your imperial army has become more and more corrupt and chaotic. The army close to our country in Nanping often goes to our country to harass the people and plunder in various ways. In our country, we have always dared to be angry but dare not speak out. The relationship between the two countries has long been not as good as it seems on the surface." Wu Ya said.

"Even if the relationship is not as good as before, after all, your country's strength is not as good as ours, Yanfeng Country. If you do this, are you not afraid that our Majesty will send troops to attack you?" Wu Fan said: "What is certain is that your assassination operation , no matter whether it is successful or not, it will be retaliated by His Majesty."

"I know, but I don't care so much anymore." Wu Ya said.

"What do you mean?" Wu Fan asked confused.

"Some time ago, the Blackwater Kingdom suddenly launched an attack on our Nanping Kingdom." Wu Ya said indifferently: "The strength of our Nanping Kingdom is already weaker than that of the Blackwater Kingdom, not to mention that this time there is the Shuiyue Kingdom behind the Blackwater Kingdom. Help, our country can't resist at all, so we turn to your Yanfeng country for help. Because of its own domestic affairs, your Yanfeng country did not send troops to help us, and we were defeated steadily. "

Wu Fan also heard about this matter, but he didn't know the details.

"Originally, we could have persisted for a while, until Yanfeng Kingdom had finished the work at hand and sent troops to help. However, a team from Shuiyue Kingdom somehow broke through the blockade, sneaked into our palace, and kidnapped me. My father and my other brothers and sisters, I happened to be outside the palace at that time, but we escaped." Wu Ya continued.

"Is there such a thing? I haven't heard of it." Wu Fan said in surprise.

"Shui Yueguo has not announced this matter to the public, and not many of us know about it internally," Wu Ya said.

"Why?" Wu Fan asked.

"Because they want me to assassinate the old emperor of your Yanfeng Kingdom." Wu Ya said with cold eyes.

"Did the people of Shuiyue Kingdom arrange for you to assassinate?" Wu Fan asked.

"Yes." Wu Ya said: "After my father and his family were placed under house arrest, the people of Shuiyue Kingdom contacted me and asked me to carry out the assassination in the name of marriage. For the safety of my father and my brothers and sisters, I had no choice."

Wu Fan nodded. In this way, the matter made sense. Shuiyue Kingdom and Yanfeng Kingdom belonged to one of the four great empires. They had always been more hostile than cooperative. It was not surprising that they wanted to assassinate the old emperor of Yanfeng Kingdom. Nanping Kingdom was weak and could only be regarded as a pawn in front of the big country. With the emperor and other princesses and princes under house arrest, Wu Ya had no choice but to take the risk of assassination.

"I still can't figure it out." Wu Fan thought for a while and said, "Your Nanping Kingdom is a country after all. The guards of the palace shouldn't be so weak, and it's wartime. How could the Shuiyue Kingdom team sneak in so easily?"

Let alone the palace, even the wealthy families now have their own guards to protect the safety of the house. The guards in the palace of Nanping Kingdom should not be too weak. How could the Shuiyue Kingdom team sneak in quietly?

"I don't know." Wu Ya shook her head in confusion.
