The best ring

Wu Fan ignored Zhao Yingfeng's rage. He walked out of the palace, stood at the door and looked into the distance.

At this time, the entire palace was boiling like boiling water, and there were soldiers running everywhere. They were constantly searching for the third princess of Nanping Kingdom.

"Looking at it like this, the third princess must not have been caught yet." Wu Fan said to himself: "I don't know who she learned her skills from, but she is quite strong."

Wu Fan just fought against the third princess of Nanping Kingdom. It is estimated that the opponent's strength, in reality, should be between the late stage of An Jin and the peak of An Jin. According to Wu Fan's knowledge, the opponent is only nineteen this year. Years old, even younger than Liu Yan'er. It is not easy to have such skills at such a young age.

"However, we may not be able to escape this time." Wu Fan said to himself as he looked at the many hunting soldiers.

The emperor was assassinated. This was a big deal. No soldier dared to slack off at this time. Being chased and intercepted by so many soldiers, even Wu Fan himself was not completely sure of escaping. After all, not all those soldiers were living off the job, let alone , the third princess of Nanping Kingdom was still injured, making it even more difficult to escape.

However, that is not what Wu Fan should be concerned about. He and the third princess of Nanping Kingdom have never met each other. As a "player", he actually doesn't have much loyalty to Yanfeng Kingdom. The reason why he tried his best to protect the old emperor just now , just as he said to Zhao Yingfeng, it is for reward.

The old emperor has not given him the fiefdom he promised. If he dies like that, what if the next emperor refuses to acknowledge his debt?

And now that I have saved him, why should I give him something better when I give him a fiefdom, right? Moreover, maybe he can be promoted to a higher position. After all, he has made a contribution to the rescue, so shouldn't he be given a reward?

The fact that County Magistrate Guo did not report credit to Wu Fan because of Qiu Yongchao's affairs made Wu Fan understand that if he wanted to survive better in this world, he must have a higher status, and the only way to do this was to hang out here. Only by doing better can we get more resources to assist him in reality.

Therefore, seeing the merit in front of him, Wu Fan will not let it go. For him as a "player", this is like triggering a "random mission", and he must grasp it. Otherwise, he will only meet the old emperor. On the one hand, the two of them had no friendship, so why should he go all out to save the old emperor?

But now that the old emperor's life has been saved, Wu Fan is not so concerned about whether the assassin of the third princess of Nanping Kingdom will be captured in the end. It has nothing to do with him anymore. If he is caught, he will not care. If there is any extra credit, he can't catch it, and he won't be punished for it.

"But why did she want to assassinate the old emperor?" Wu Fan wondered in his heart.

I believe this is what many people don't understand, including the old emperor himself. Otherwise, the old emperor would not be so wary of her and let her succeed in a sneak attack.

"Master Wu, His Majesty called you over." Just as Wu Fan was watching the excitement and thinking about the motives for the assassination of the third princess of Nanping Kingdom, a young eunuch ran over and said respectfully to him.

"Your Majesty is awake?" Wu Fan turned around and asked.

"I just woke up." The little eunuch said, "I have been helped to rest in the harem."

Wu Fan nodded and said, "Take me there."

The little eunuch bent slightly and led the way for Wu Fan. Wu Fan headed to the harem with envy and jealousy from the ministers including Zhao Yingfeng in the palace. When passing the main hall, Wu Fan even smiled at Zhao Yingfeng.

"Hmph! The villain has his way!" Zhao Yingfeng said angrily.

Under the leadership of the young eunuch, Wu Fan walked through the main hall and came to the palace at the back where the emperor and his concubines lived. Ordinary people were not allowed to enter here. It was where the emperor's family lived.

"Master Wu, please come inside." The young eunuch led Wu Fan to a dormitory and said to him.

The entrance to the dormitory was already heavily guarded. When the soldiers saw Wu Fan and the little eunuch coming, they all looked over, their eyes full of vigilance. Then four people came over and stopped Wu Fan and the little eunuch. , "Stop, we want to search you."

The little eunuch stopped obediently and cooperated honestly. Wu Fan had no choice but to do the same.

The assassination of the old emperor obviously stimulated these soldiers. This time they searched him more carefully. They wanted to separate Wu Fan's hair one by one for inspection.

"Go in." After some inspection, the soldiers let Wu Fan and the young eunuch in.

After Wu Fan entered the palace, he saw a bunch of eunuchs, palace maids, imperial doctors, and probably the old emperor's concubines, sons, daughters, etc. gathered inside. Although the palace was large, it seemed very crowded at this time.

"Your Majesty, Master Wu is here." The young eunuch led Wu Fan to the old emperor and said.

The old emperor had woken up at this time, half lying on the bed, with white gauze still wrapped around both arms. There was no trace of blood on his face, and his mental state was not very good.

After all, the old emperor was nearly seventy years old. Although he was not fatally injured, he could not withstand the torture. It was estimated that he would have to rest for a long time before he could recover after today.

"Wu Fan, come here." The old emperor waved to Wu Fan, motioning for him to come closer.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Wu Fan responded and walked to the bed. The concubines and children of the old emperor in front of the bed looked at Wu Fan with doubtful eyes.

"Luckily you were here just now, otherwise, I would have died in the hands of that woman." The old emperor said to Wu Fan.

"Your Majesty is blessed with great fortune. Even if I did not help, you would have been able to turn danger into safety and be safe." Wu Fan said respectfully, and in his heart he admired his own improvement in flattery.

The old emperor smiled, but seemed to have touched his wound and frowned.

"Your Majesty, you should rest more now." Wu Fan said, "Don't think too much about other things for the time being."

"Yes, Your Majesty, you should rest more and talk less." The imperial doctor next to him also said.

The old emperor nodded slightly, looked at Wu Fan and said, "You have made great contributions to saving the emperor this time, and I will not treat you unfairly."

"This is what I should do, I dare not take credit for it." Wu Fan said.

"Okay, I know what I am doing." The old emperor said, "Go down, all of you go down first."

"Yes." Everyone responded in unison.

Wu Fan turned and walked out. With the old emperor's words just now, he was relieved. At least he did not save the other party in vain.

"Father!"

When Wu Fan was about to leave, a young woman rushed in, passed by Wu Fan, and went straight to the old emperor's bed.

"Qier, you're here?" The old emperor's voice sounded.

"Is that the seventh princess Zhao Qi who just passed by?" Wu Fan thought to himself: "Why does she look familiar?"

Wu Fan thought about it, but couldn't remember where he had seen her before, so he gave up.
