The palace.

Liu Fu got permission, entered the backyard, and saw King Yan sitting in the pavilion fishing, very leisurely.

He now seriously suspected that King Yan had faked his death to be lazy for a few days.

Shaking his head, he stepped forward and said, "Your Highness, Yuan Li is here."

"Yuan Li? He came really quickly." Zhao Xu raised the corners of his mouth.

Liu Fu's face was gloomy, "Your Highness, do you think he was responsible for this assassination?"

"I can't say for sure, it's possible." Zhao Xu said: "The assassin, what he most wants to confirm now is whether this king is really dead."

Liu Fu nodded. In the territory of Yanzhou, apart from the Zhang family, it is probably the Yuan family that hates King Yan the most now.

Naturally, the possibility is very high, but even so, you can't just blame it without evidence.

"I'm going to test him out now and see what Yuan Li is going to do."

Zhao Xu kept staring at the fish float and nodded slightly in agreement.

After leaving the palace, he went straight to the south gate.

Chang Wei was already at the city gate.

Noticing his arrival, Chang Wei secretly gave him a look.

"Chang Wei, what are you doing here? Yuan Zhoumu is looking for me, why are you so attentive?" Liu Furen's words came before he could reach Yuan Li.

Chang Wei said angrily: "What right does a little prince like you have to take charge of Yancheng? I advise you not to make yourself uncomfortable."

"You are so bold. I am the king's master, and all matters in Yan County should be handled by me."

"..."

The two of them started to argue with each other.

Yuan Li had dismounted and sat on the chair in the doorway to rest.

Seeing the two of them arguing, their faces turned red, and they were secretly happy in their hearts.

These two people were King Yan's right-hand men. When King Yan was there, although they had quarrels, their relationship was still harmonious.

Now that he is so angry, King Yan seems to be really dead.

That's why the two of them are busy fighting for control of Yancheng.

"Two, two." Seeing that the two people were arguing without stopping, Yuan Li stood up and came to them.

"It is really unfortunate that King Yan is in trouble. Now is not the time to cause trouble." Yuan Li said with a smile, and then he suddenly changed his words and said seriously: "Furthermore, I am the governor of Yanzhou. If King Yan dies, Yan County will be in charge." I will take charge of it on my behalf.”

Liu Fu and Chang Wei, who were arguing, suddenly became quiet.

They thought about it thoughtfully, looking like they suddenly realized something.

"What Yuan Zhoumu said is absolutely true. Mr. Zhoumu is the lord of Yanzhou." Liu Fu handed over his hand.

Chang Wei cupped his hands and said, "Yes, yes."

Yuan Li felt extremely happy when he saw that the two of them were very respectful to him.

During this period, Yan County was out of his control, and it was entirely the King of Yan who was in charge.

Now that King Yan is dead, they have no one to rely on, so they naturally have to think about their own future. It is normal to behave like this.

At the same time, his last doubt about whether King Yan had faked his death disappeared.

With his hands behind his back, there was a look of scorn in his eyes.

For him, Chang Wei and Liu Fu are still of some use for the time being. When he takes over all the property of King Yan, he will get rid of them.

Putting away his scornful expression, he said to Liu Fu: "As the saying goes, those who know the current affairs are heroes. It is said that my son-in-law Zhang Kang is still detained in the prison..."

"Ah, I will ask someone to come out immediately." Liu Fu understood and signaled to the official next to him, and the official turned and left.

Seeing Liu Fu being so obedient, Yuan Li nodded slightly.

Cross Liu Fu.

He entered Yancheng through the door and continued: "Also, I want to seize all the properties of the palace and supervise them on my behalf."

Then, he said to Chang Wei: "General Chang, are you willing to serve my Yuan family?"

When Chang Wei heard this, he wished he could kill Yuan Li immediately with his sword.

This thief is really greedy. He wants to embezzle everything that belongs to King Yan.

He was about to have an attack, but suddenly he saw Liu Fu gently shaking his head. He had to suppress his anger and said flatteringly: "It will be great to serve Yuan Zhoumu."

Yuan Li was overjoyed, he didn't expect it to go so smoothly.

He thought secretly: King Yan, King Yan, no matter how powerful you are, everything you have now is not mine.

Liu Fu always paid attention to Yuan Li's expression and saw that Yuan Li was a little carried away.

He seemed to say unintentionally: "The person who assassinated King Yan this time was really ruthless. The three people pushed the explosive car towards King Yan from different directions. They must have planned it carefully."

All Yuan Li was thinking about was Zhao Xu's property.

Hearing this, he subconsciously blurted out, "It's not four people..."

At this point, he suddenly realized that he had slipped his words and changed his words: "Yes, King Yan is so wronged to die."

Liu Fu and Chang Wei looked at each other, with a trace of hatred flashing in their eyes.

This old fox showed his tail after just testing it.

As expected, this assassination had something to do with Yuan Li.

With a suspicion in his mind, Liu Fu suddenly raised his chest and said to Yuan Lida: "That's not true. Your Highness, King Yan, is fine. He is now waiting for Mr. Zhou Mu at the palace."

Chang Wei put away the fake smile on his face and put his hand on his waist knife.

Yuan Li was stunned for a long time, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses, "You...you...what did you say?"

"His Royal Highness King Yan is fine, and it's not who spread the rumors." Liu Fu smiled with a smile on his face, and he was very happy to see Yuan Li's extremely disappointed look.

But just as he said, the palace did not tell the outside world that King Yan was dead.

They just put on a crying scene, and then everyone thought something happened to King Yan.

Chang Wei sneered: "Yuan Zhoumu has brought so many soldiers and horses, has it been determined that His Highness has been assassinated?"

Yuan Li saw that Chang Wei's attitude changed drastically, and he immediately realized that he had been fooled.

"You are looking for death!" Yuan Li was furious. Who are they? How dare they humiliate him like this.

Immediately, he pulled out the sword from his waist and flashed it in his hand.

Chang Wei was not afraid and took out his sword, "Are you Yuan Li the only one who knows how to kill people? Even if the Beidi people are not afraid, they will be afraid of generals like you and the Yuan family!"

Chang Wei's words made Yuan Li's generals furious, and their swords were immediately unsheathed.

"Kill!" The royal soldiers pointed their weapons at the Yuan family generals at the same time.

"Rumble, rumble..." At this time, a large number of soldiers moved on the city wall, and the crossbowmen aimed their pulley crossbows at the Yuan family's army.

Yuan Li was shocked.

Having just experienced the battle against Beidi, the soldiers of the palace seemed to have a murderous aura all over them.

Yuan Li believed that as long as he took action, these soldiers would definitely hack him to death without hesitation.

"Okay, very good, it's King Yan." Yuan Li's smile was full of hatred.

Now that things have come to a point, he no longer needs to be secretive.

Looking at Liu Fu, he said: "You can give a message to the King of Yan. It is easy to be proud for a while, but it is difficult to be proud for a lifetime. On the ground of Yanzhou, it is best for him to tuck his tail between his legs and live a good life. My Fan Yang Yuan family has passed down the inheritance in Yanzhou." A hundred years is not so easy to live up to."

After that, he turned and left.

Mounting his horse, he led his army southward, leaving behind a trail of smoke and dust.

Liu Fu sighed, "I just defeated a small one, but I didn't expect to provoke a big one."

Chang Wei snorted, "Sooner or later, Zhang Kang is just a dog of the Yuan family. If you beat the dog, the owner will eventually come, and then he will be killed at worst."
