Chapter 238, fanning the flames

Su Zhe, as the supreme commander of the Jinyi Guard lurking in Yizhou, also took great pains to plan this assassination.

Because as far as he knew, Liu Fan's martial arts were not very strong, and if he attacked too hard, it was likely that he would really kill him, but this was not in their interests.

As a result, he could only collect a group of bandits on the spot and ordered him not to bring a bow and crossbow to prevent Liu Fan from being stabbed to death with an arrow.

This kind of assassination is far more difficult than actually killing the target person.

Fortunately, the plan was a complete success.

"My lord, how many of our people have died......" After the man in black got rid of the pursuers, he came to the place agreed with Su Zhe.

"Rest assured, the pension promised to them will not be less!"

After Su Zhe finished speaking, he turned around and left, and the black-clothed people glanced at each other and followed one after another.

This was a transaction, and this assassination was their vote, allowing them to get rid of the thieves and be canonized after Liu Bei entered Yizhou in the future.

……

"Childe, this is the Assassin's saber."

After Liu Fan was out of danger, the guards surrounded him to avoid being attacked by the Assassins.

The leader of the guard, "Li Yan", picked up the assassin's saber and presented it to Liu Fan thoughtfully. At the hilt of the sword, the word "embroidered spring" is impressively engraved.

Seeing this, Xu Shu said in his heart: What a trick to lead the water to the east, Liu Fan saw this embroidered spring knife, but he would exclude Jinyiwei.

It's the opposite, and you've seen an Assassin who would report himself? Of course, if Liu Fan was smart enough, he would not easily suspect Jia Long and the others.

It's just that...... Liu Fan is obviously not this kind of person.

As soon as he saw the embroidered spring knife, he immediately decided that it was Jia Long's doing: "Do they think I am a fool? I want to get rid of it with just an embroidered spring knife, hum, Jia Long, you can't help but underestimate me. ”

"Maybe it's really Jinyiwei's doing, after all, Liu Bei is now eyeing Yizhou." Xu Shu spoke at the right time, but as expected, it backfired.

"Yuan Zhi, I know that you have never wanted to see civil strife in Yizhou, but now I don't offend people, people come to offend me, if you don't do something, people still think I'm a bully."

"The lord must not be impulsive, this matter should be investigated clearly before making a conclusion. If...... If it was really Jia Long and others, they should also think of a foolproof plan so as not to startle the snake. ”

Liu Fan smiled at this time: "Yes, we should think of a foolproof plan to catch them all." ”

After the guards helped him temporarily treat his wounds, the group began to return to Chengdu.

……

"How are my injuries?"

The news of Liu Fan's injury spread quickly, and as soon as the group returned to Liu Fan's mansion, Liu Yan rushed over when he heard the news, followed by Jia Long, Zhang Ren and others.

Everyone was originally discussing how to deal with Liu Bei, who was eyeing Liu Bei, but Liu Yan was a person who loved his son, so he couldn't care about anything when he heard the news, and rushed directly away.

As for Jia Long, it was because he wanted to spy on the news, so he came under the pretense of visiting the sick. Because he felt that this matter was a little strange, it stands to reason that they were the most likely opponents of Liu Fan.

But before they could do it, someone had already taken the lead. In other words, if Liu Fan has an accident, almost everyone will suspect that they did it, which is called a disaster without reason, and there is no way to say it.

Jia Long still remembers that Liu Yan's first reaction was to look at him after hearing that Liu Fan was injured.

"It's all right." Liu Fan barely showed a smile, but his eyes glanced at Jia Long from time to time, which was a little intriguing.

Xu Shu sighed in his heart, Liu Fan is really not a qualified pretender, and such a posture will inevitably startle the snake. In his opinion, if he really wanted to paralyze Jia Long, he should show his angry side.

But he was too lazy to teach, and he didn't really assist Liu Fan in the first place. Second, as a monarch, there are some things that you should understand, and it is pointless to rely on your subordinates to teach, and you can only teach him for a while.

And after Jia Long noticed Liu Fan's eyes, he couldn't help but be shocked in his heart, Liu Fan really suspected that he did it.

But they didn't want to take Liu Fan's life at this time, because that would only increase the conflict with Liu Yan. Right now, Liu Bei is eyeing the tiger, and it is definitely not the time for infighting.

"Do you know the identity of the assassin?" Liu Yan asked.

He also suspected that Jia Long and others were responsible, but there was no evidence yet, and even if there was an answer, he couldn't say it openly.

Jia Long stared at Liu Fan tightly, if the other party insisted that it was them, he had to take precautions immediately.

"It's Jinyiwei."

Liu Fan's answer was surprising, he showed a touch of hatred on his face, and said in a deep voice: "Then Liu Bei has occupied Guanzhong, and now he is eyeing me in Yizhou, and he must want to distract his father by assassinating the child." ”

After speaking, he waved his hand and motioned for Li Yan to take the embroidered spring knives left by the assassins.

Seeing this, Jia Long did not dispel his worries, but became more worried. Because of Liu Fan's strange behavior, people have an illusion of an undercurrent surging.

It was as if he was just paralyzing them, looking for an opportunity to strike the fatal blow.

Jia Long suddenly found that no matter what kind of attitude Liu Fan had, he couldn't be completely at ease. As long as something happens to the other party, he will inevitably worry that the other party will suddenly liquidate them.

Liu Yan saw the embroidered spring knife, and a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes: "Is it really Jinyiwei's doing?" ”

His thoughts were almost identical to Liu Fan's, which assassin would carry a weapon that marked his identity?

However, he obviously thought more, and it could not be ruled out that this was Liu Bei's deliberate intention, intending to let him benefit from civil strife in Yizhou.

"I think except for Jinyiwei, no one in this world will wear an embroidered spring knife, right?" Liu Fan said hesitantly, giving an ambiguous answer.

Zhang Ren said coldly: "Not necessarily, everyone in the world knows that the embroidered spring knife is used by Jinyi Wei, but they are not the only ones who can build it." ”

Zhang Ren and Jia Long will not deal with each other, so they will naturally not miss the opportunity to attack their political opponents. It is worth mentioning that as the commander of the Dongzhou Army, he has always been on Liu Fan's side.

This is not only due to the discord with Jia Long, but also because Liu Fan is the eldest son of Yan and Liu Yan's most legitimate heir.

Hearing this, Jia Long said angrily: "What does General Zhang mean by this, do you suspect that we did it?" ”

He felt that he had not attacked Liu Fan for a long time for the sake of the overall situation, but now that he had suffered an unwarranted disaster, he would naturally be dissatisfied.

Zhang Ren was not to be outdone, and said coldly: "I didn't say that Jia Zhi did it, why do you think so, could it be that you don't recruit yourself?" ”

"You!"

"Looking at the whole of Yizhou, who else but you would hate the eldest prince so much?"

"Zhang Ren, you are so bloody that you are spewing blood."

"That's it!"

Liu Yan stopped the momentum of the two continuing to argue, and said indifferently: "Who did this matter, I will investigate it clearly." ”
