Start Being a Vassal King Today - Chapter 243

[Chapter 243 Bloody Banquet]

Zhangshan Village.

late at night.

Lizheng Sun Fu was listening to what some villagers were talking about.

“Today there are suddenly a lot more strange faces.”

“There were more than a hundred people in the past .” “There are more

at night, but I can’t see them clearly. It’s estimated that there are four or five hundred.”

“It seems that all directions are heading towards us . It’s really strange that the mountain village is here.”

“…”

Sun Fu frowned, “Don’t say too much, I’ll send someone to the government office tomorrow to explain the situation.”

Thinking of something, he said: “Go forward Wuli Road seems to be the Lu family’s villa.”

Everyone nodded.

One person said, “There is a forest halfway along the road.”

Liu Fu frowned even deeper, “Who dares to go and see if they have gone through the forest.”

“I’ll go.” A boy shouted, “I’m sure The woods are familiar, you can touch them even when it’s dark, and you know the path to the woods.”

Liu Fu nodded, “I’m afraid these sons of bitches are here to harm our Highness, we can’t let them succeed. I’ll leave it to you.”

The boy known as the leftover nodded, turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

At the entrance of the village, the remaining son went to the woods.

This wood is a beautiful place, and a small stream leads to it.

Every summer, he would come here to catch cicada monkeys.

After going around in a circle, the leftover got into the woods from the path.

Under the moonlight, the hazy light could see things, and they saw a lot of black shadows coming and going in the moonlight from a distance.

“There must be five or six hundred people here.” The remaining son exclaimed secretly.

Then he took a closer look and found that these people seemed to be digging on the road, stuffing something into the dug hole.

After observing for a while, I found that these people had no other actions, and the rest returned to the village.

The next day, he went to the government office with Lizheng Liu Fu.

Tell what you found.

The news was quickly sent to the palace.

“Your Highness, five or six hundred people were ambushed in the woods three miles east of Zhangshan Village.” Liu Fu said.

“Zhangshan Village, isn’t this on the way to the villa?” Zhao Xu frowned.

At this time, Xu Hark was also in the palace.

He said: “There were also people ambushing near the villa. They hid in the woods behind the villa. In this way, they set up two ambushes.”

“Well, Yuan Li really put his mind to it this time.” Zhao Xu sneered.

Qinglian Villa of the Lu family is on the halfway of a low mountain.

After Tsui Hark found out about this situation, last night, Chang Wei took his soldiers and hid in the woods under the villa.

Liu Fu was worried, “Your Highness, please think carefully about it. This is not a child’s play. Don’t go to this banquet. Just kill all the assassins.

” On the scalp.

After a pause, he said to Tsui Hark, “Send the information to Chang Wei immediately, and deal with the assassins lying in ambush on the way before the banquet begins.”

“Yes, Your Highness.” Xu Hark answered yes, turned and left.

Then Zhao Xu said to Xu Lie who was beside him: “Xu Lie, this time the king’s life is in your hands.”

“Your Highness, don’t worry, there is a general here, and no one can get close to His Highness.” Xu Lie patted He patted his plate armor.

According to the agreement with Lu Ran, noon today is the time for him to attend the appointment.

After a while, the time was about to come, and the two set off.

Qinglian Villa.

Lu Ran is waiting for Zhao Xu and his party. In order to entertain Zhao Xu, he prepared songs, dances and all kinds of delicacies.

When Zhao Xu arrived, Lu Ran, Xue Pan, Zhu Rong and others were all present.

Yesterday, the two of them arrived and stayed at the villa for one night.

“See Your Highness.” When Zhao Xu arrived, Lu Ran hurriedly stepped forward to salute.

Xue Pan and Zhu Rong hurriedly stood up and saluted.

Being led by Lu Ran to sit on the main seat, Zhao Xu returned the salute one by one, and said at this time: “Please sit down, both of you, I am really pleased that you can understand the righteousness and hand over the land.”

Xue Pan and Zhu Rong looked at each other With a glance, he laughed, and Zhu Rong said: “This is as it should be. What Your Highness thinks is what we think. From now on, we only wish to serve under Your Highness.”

Xue Pan cautiously glanced at Zhao Xu’s wolf-like guards. , smirking: “These guards of Your Highness all have fierce faces, which really don’t suit the atmosphere of the banquet. Why let these guards leave and replace them with singers, it’s so interesting.

” How can you send the guards away at will, don’t you bring the guards with you even if it’s Governor Xue?” Xu Lie said lightly at this time.

“What Commander Xu said is true.” Lu Ran flattered, “Your Highness is a dignified prince, these people are not worth making a fuss about.”

While speaking, he gave Xue Pan a strange look.

It seems that this should not be what he said.

Xue Pan didn’t take it seriously, he thought that King Yan had fallen into the trap he designed and could not escape.

That being the case, he naturally no longer worried about offending King Yan with his words.

After pondering for a while, Xue Pan made up his mind, and he said: “It’s not because I worry too much, I’m afraid His Highness has been guarding against me, or His Highness has just taken over Pingjun and Liaojun, and he can’t wait to check the fields, I’m afraid he has the intention of clearing us.” Your Highness probably knows this better than I do.”

With a sneer, Xue Pan continued: “The Gao family in Shanggu County and the Zhang furniture in Yan County were all killed by His Highness, which shows that His Highness hates us and other wealthy families. ”

As soon as Xue Pan’s words fell, one could hear a quiet needle drop in the whole yard.

Lu Ran’s face was pale, and his body trembled slightly. He changed his expression and said, “Xue Pan, what nonsense are you talking about? You asked me to invite His Highness to the banquet. Why are you so rude.”

“Shut up, you are not talking here For your sake, as a rich family in Yanzhou, you actually bowed your knees to the King of Yan, which is a disgrace to our rich family in Yanzhou.” Xue Pan pointed at Lu Ran not at all politely.

To King Yan, all the powerful families in Yanzhou suppressed their anger, and now he finally spoke freely.

Lu Ran said angrily, “Xue Pan, are you crazy? How dare you say such outrageous things.”

“Mr. Lu, why don’t you listen to what this Sheriff Xue has to say?” Zhao Xu suddenly said.

Xue Pan snorted coldly, and continued: “Your Highness, my meaning is very simple, you are not worthy to be king of Yan, and there is no wealthy family in Yanzhou who is willing to support you from the bottom of their hearts.”

“Hahaha…” Zhao Xu suddenly laughed, “Why should you support me, the people of King Yan are enough. You seem to take yourself too seriously.

” I’ll let you see whether the powerful clan or my lowly people have the final say in Yanzhou.”

After finishing speaking, Xue Pan slammed his teacup on the ground suddenly, and there was a sound of footsteps outside the courtyard.

This is his signal to the assassin.

Xu Lie’s expression paled, and he immediately brought thirty guards to protect Zhao Xu.

At the same time, there were sudden bursts of screams, and it turned out that Yan Wei, who was disguised as a slave, had already made a move.

Before Zhu Rong and the others could react, their necks were cut open. Xue Pan was shocked when he saw it.

It turned out that King Yan had already prepared for it! They fell for it.

“Protect me.” Xue Pan roared, and the dozen or so Xue family children who came with him rushed up immediately.

Xu Lie gave the guards around him a look, and the guards rushed towards the disciples of the Xue family.
