Time flies, and two years have passed in the blink of an eye.

In the past two years, the three princes have established their own intelligence forces through their own connections.

Not only is it just intelligence, but even many ministers above the court have already taken a superficial position, and if the three princes are determined to compete for the crown prince, they will definitely support it fully.

Of course, all this is done in secret, after all, it is too ostentatious to attract the attention of others.

The third prince frequently contacted those ministers, although it was done secretly, but the crown prince Liu Ze had also heard about it.

Although Liu Ze is the eldest son, he is currently in the position of the East Palace, but there is a big gap between him and the third prince Liu Yuxuan in terms of strategy and talent.

Liu Ze also contacted many ministers, but most of their replies were vague.

In this way, he was even more anxious, in the past, the third prince Liu Yuxuan had no intention of taking the position of the East Palace, although he also spoke above the court, but most of them were only involved in some miscellaneous affairs, and he did not strive for it.

Since he decided to participate in the competition, he is not just waiting for an opportunity in the court, but trying his best to fight for it.

This made Liu Ze angry, he knew that his third brother was deeply trusted by his father, and if he really wanted to compete with him for the position of prince, it would be very unfavorable to him.

Although he also has the support of some ministers, even the national teacher of the dynasty fully supports him. But his heart was still very uneasy.

Today in the East Palace, the prince is in a very bad mood, and after he came back from the early dynasty, that's it.

Furious in the East Palace, how many things were broken.

It's just that this morning, the third prince was out of the limelight in front of the emperor, robbed him of his light, and didn't put him in his eyes at all.

"My good third brother, since you are determined to compete with me for the position of prince, then let's wait and see who can have the last laugh. ”

At this time, a guard came in at the door, and after he came to the prince's side, he said to the prince: "Your Highness, the national teacher asks to see you." ”

"Hurry up, please. The prince collected his emotions and smiled anew.

After a while, Xu Hong, the national teacher of the Shu Dynasty, walked in. Xu Hong was very important to the Shu Dynasty, assisting the current emperor to create a grand foundation, paying a lot for the Shu Dynasty, and winning the emperor's trust.

"National teacher, you're here. Liu Ze asked flatly.

The minister thought that the crown prince would be angry because of the matter of the three princes in the early dynasty, but Yichen looked at His Royal Highness with a smile, and was not affected by this matter at all, could it be that His Royal Highness was ready to give up. ”

Liu Ze replied with a smile: "The national teacher is too worried, of course I don't like my third brother's approach, but, I believe in myself, after all, I am already in this position, besides, don't I still have the national teacher, I believe that the national teacher will help me." ”

In the past two years, Xu Hong has often visited the East Palace, just to help Liu Ze stabilize his position, and the previous princes basically obeyed him.

It's just that now he is discovering more and more that the prince is no longer different in his eyes, at least there are many things that he hides well and no longer shows them easily.

"I knew that His Highness would definitely be worried and angry because of this matter, so the minister came over to share His Highness's worries. ”

"There is Lao Guoshi, my third brother, now the action is becoming more and more obvious, this is the intention to fight with me to the end, do you say I can not be angry, but the current wind anger can't solve the problem, I still count on the national teacher to give me advice." ”

"I can also see that the purpose of the three princes is very clear, that is, to fight with His Royal Highness for the position of the prince, and he is very strong, His Royal Highness is angry and angry, you must not mess with yourself, you are still the prince after all, as long as you do what the prince should do, share more worries for His Majesty, and win the hearts of the people, His Royal Highness's position will be unshakable, even if the third prince is very good. ”

Xu Hong really wants to support the crown prince's accession to the throne, but he also has his own ambitions.

Although he is now in a high position and has several powers, he is not satisfied with his current situation, his idea is to be re-elected as the emperor through his own support, and this emperor must be under his control.

"Thank you for your words, I know what to do. In fact, the reason for all the current passive situation is because of the intervention of the three major families in Yancheng at the beginning, otherwise, my good third brother would have disappeared into this world a long time ago, two years have passed, and he has never attacked them, every time he thinks that they are still alive, this prince is very unhappy, it seems that I have to get rid of this big trouble. Liu Ze said.

Xu Hong didn't expect that Liu Ze would think like this at this time.

He echoed: "Yes, the original assassination was prepared for five years, and in the end it was actually destroyed on the small three major families in Yancheng City, I also agree with His Royal Highness, the three princes seem to be quite close to these three families, and they should find an opportunity to get rid of them and relieve the troubles, so that they don't really serve the three princes in the future, and the road will be even more difficult." ”

"Since the national teacher also agrees with me, let's get rid of the three major families in Yancheng first. ”

In the past three months, Yang Wu's mood has been extremely low, and the whereabouts of Feng Liji are unknown, and he still doesn't know the bad luck.

At the beginning, he also thought about getting up alone to find the person who was killed by the shadow to avenge Feng Liji, if it wasn't for Yang Jin and them holding him, he would have left the Yang Mansion a long time ago.

Now, although two years have passed, he also doesn't believe that Feng Liji really died like this.

They originally said that they would walk the rivers and lakes together, but now that the wind marks have disappeared, he is very sad.

Today, he got up early as usual and came to the martial arts training ground to practice martial arts, two years have passed, and his strength has entered the peak of the late innate stage.

In the past two years, he has never relaxed, he swears that no matter whether Feng Lichen is dead or alive now, it is because of the travel of Shadow Kill that he has become like this, and he will improve his strength, so that he can avenge Feng Lichen when the time comes.

Moreover, Luohan Boxing has been practiced by him, and with his exercises, it is powerful and incomparable.

After Yang Wu received the merit, he left the Yang Mansion directly, and he didn't know where he was going. In the past two years, as long as there is nothing to do, he will go out of the market alone.

He stopped and stopped all the way, but met the carriage of Butler Yang who was out on the street.

There were a few more wrinkles on Steward Yang's face, his temples were white, and he looked much older.

Yang Wu stepped forward and asked, "Butler, where are you going, why don't you bring two guards?"

Steward Yang didn't know what he was thinking, but Yang Wu talked to him before he reacted.

"It's Yang Wu, I'm going to run errands outside the city, who will be unfavorable to me, an old man, and I don't need guards. ”

"Butler, this is an extraordinary time, the head of the family said that the situation of our Yang Mansion is very different, and we may be assassinated at any time, and the person who is killed by the shadow will definitely have the information of our Yang Mansion, and you are no exception. ”

Steward Yang didn't expect that Yang Wu, who has always been honest and honest, would have such a careful side, so he still replied: "They shouldn't be able to attack me, a powerless person, right?"

"Who is the shadow killing, the killer organization that terrified the mainland, there is nothing they can't do, for your safety, I'm just fine now, I'll accompany you on a trip!" Yang Wu replied.

Steward Yang said, "Since this is the case, then it is up to you." ”

Yang Wu came to the carriage and said to the coachman: "You go back first, tell the master of the house, and say that I will accompany Steward Yang out of the city to run errands, and I will rush back when I am done." ”

The subordinate replied, "Yes, Young Master Yang Wu." Yang Wu got into the carriage, picked up the whip rope, and drove the carriage out of the city.

It's just that he didn't expect that they had been targeted when they were talking.

Shadow Kill's branch in Yancheng received a mission yesterday, doing its best to assassinate the members of the three major families in Yancheng, without killing them with one blow, as long as it slowly eats away at them, making them live in fear, and the headquarters will send an elder and three gold medal killers to assist.

About two quarters of an hour passed, and Yang Wu and their carriage traveled to Changle Street in Yancheng.

Changle Street is the street at the gate of Yancheng, and if they want to go out of the city, this is the only way to go.

Yang Wu, who was sitting in front, said: "Steward Yang, don't think too much about Brother Feng, although it is said that the Demon Beast Forest is a forbidden area for humans, but I still believe that my brother will definitely turn evil into good fortune, so you must take care of your body, in case my brother comes back and sees your current situation, he will be sad." ”

Steward Yang, who was sitting in the carriage, heard Yang Wu mention the wind marks, and his mood became even heavier. It wasn't until eight years ago that he happened to encounter the same Feng Lichen, and he was very sympathetic to Feng Lichen, so he left him in the Yang Mansion and recognized him as his grandson, and once again got the warmth of home.

It's just that the good times don't last long, and the warm time is always short-lived, no one expected that Feng Liji would be assassinated by Shadow Kill on the way to the mission, and thus entered the demon beast forest that belongs to the forbidden area of humans, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.

Feng Lichen is a very good person, empathetic, and good for him.

When Yang Wu told Feng Liji to enter the Demon Beast Forest, his sky seemed to fall, like a thunderbolt hitting his heart on a sunny day, because the terrifying Demon Beast Forest was not just a rumor, but a well-known thing on the mainland. As long as humans have entered it, no one has ever been there.

Steward Yang's old voice came: "Yang Wu, I know that you are for my good, I know, I will be fine, Li Trace's business, so be it! If he can really come back, it will be good, you don't have to worry about me." ”

Yang Wu knew that Steward Yang's heart was the most uncomfortable, and he had always regarded Feng Liji as his own grandson.

Thinking of this, Yang Wu didn't say much, and concentrated on driving the carriage to prepare to leave Yancheng.

At this time, a sound of breaking the sky came, and after Yang Wu's strength improved, his ear power also improved a lot, and his prediction in the face of danger became more sensitive. He saw two daggers with silver light flying towards his face, and in desperation, he threw the whip in his hand and knocked the dagger away.

At this time, two black masked killers flew out from above the city gate, Yang Wu turned the carriage for safety, and he came out in a hurry without bringing out his own weapons.

The sudden change made Steward Yang in the carriage wonder, and he asked, "What happened to Yang Wu?"

Yang Wu replied while turning the carriage: "Steward Yang, we have met a killer, if you are not mistaken, they are the people who killed the shadow, I have turned the carriage, you drive away first, after I broke off, I was worried that I couldn't find them, but I didn't expect them to send them to the door, today I will first ask for some interest for Brother Feng to come back." ”

When Steward Yang heard the killer, he obviously felt a little surprised, the person who killed the shadow really stared at the Yang Mansion, and he said: "Yang Wu, don't be impulsive, since they dare to make a move, they must be prepared." Let's leave first. ”

"Steward Yang, don't worry, I'll be fine, my strength has increased greatly in the past two years, I must kill them today, I will do my best if you leave first." ”

Steward Yang couldn't persuade Yang Wu, and if he stayed, it would indeed make Yang Wu afraid and difficult to show his true strength. “

Okay, I'll go back to the head of the house and let them help you, you must be careful not to put yourself in danger. ”

"Don't worry, I'll be fine, it's not too convenient for you to move, be more careful yourself, and rush back to the Yang Mansion with all your might, in case they still have an ambush, which is not good for you." ”

"Hmm!" Steward Yang came out of it, grabbed the reins and drove the carriage away.

Yang Wu flew down, waiting for the killer to arrive, and there was no fear in his eyes.

He said loudly: "I have been looking for you for a long time, and since you have sent it to the door today, let's stay forever." ”

Yang Wu ran the Immortal Golden Body Exercise with all his might, and the whole person's breath was released, and his body was like steel and iron bones, unbreakable.

These two killers are both silver killers of shadow killing, and their strength is at the peak of the late congenital stage. Although their exercises are unpredictable, vicious and vicious, which makes people unguardable, they are inferior in the face of such a brave Yang Wu.

Yang Wu pinched the tiger fist with both hands, the power was shocking, at this time, the two killer swords approached, Yang Wu performed a big movement method, flashing the burly body.

The figures of the two killers are very dexterous, although Yang Wu is tall, and it seems that the speed will be inferior to it, but there is a big shift in Yang Wu, and the speed is not as low as the two killers.

At this time, the surrounding pedestrians have already dispersed, for fear of affecting their own safety. On the street, the speed of the three of them is very fast, you come and go, Yang Wu fights against two sword-wielding killers of the same level with his bare hands, and the more he fights, the more courageous he becomes.

His fist skills are extremely strong, and with the indestructible gold body on his body, he can face the killer's sword.

The two killers became more and more frightened the more they fought, and Yang Wu's body was too strong, making it difficult for them to break through Yang Wu's defenses.

These two people obviously often go out on missions together, and they cooperate very tacitly, they know that if they continue like this, it will definitely be detrimental to themselves, they glanced at each other and nodded.

The two of them drew their swords at the same time and performed a set of double swordsmanship.

The attacks of the two became more aggressive, fast and ruthless, there were no flaws, and for a while, Yang Wu retreated again and again. If it weren't for his skill, he would have been seriously injured in the face of the attack of the man in black.

Yang Wu took the initiative to distance himself, looked at the other party with some surprise in his eyes and said, "I didn't expect that you trash walking in the dark can also have such attainments in swordsmanship, it seems that I still underestimate you a little." ”

One of the black-clothed men sneered: "Who do you think you are, the two of us have been on a mission for so many years, and there are as many as five Innate Great Perfection masters who have been killed, although I don't know why the above would let the two of us kill you a little minion in the late congenital stage, but if you meet us, then consider yourself unlucky." ”

"If you don't brag, you'll die, your Grandpa Yang and I'm here, if you have the ability, come and kill me." Yang Wu scoffed.

"Hmph, it's just a matter of tongue, so I'll show you our assassination skills. ”

After speaking, the two launched an attack again, Yang Wu saw this, and waited for it, although he didn't believe the words of the man in black, but he had to guard against it.

He opened the golden body with all his might, and Luohan took the initiative to attack. Powerful fist prints flew in all directions, shattering everything on both sides of the street.

Yang Wu's Luohan Boxing is almost complete, how can this man in black be compared.

Yang Wu had already discovered that the attack strength of the men in black had indeed surpassed him with Liao's blessing, but their weakness was that their defense was not enough.

And he himself is mainly defensive, and the attack power is no less than that of the man in black, so he chooses to attack automatically, striving to kill them with one blow.

The two men in black didn't expect Yang Wu to suddenly launch such a violent attack punch, and although their swords attacked Yang Wu's body, it seemed to hit the steel, and they couldn't cause him a lot of damage.

The tacit cooperation between the two of them has been gradually disrupted by Yang Wu's fierce fist technique, revealing a big flaw. Because they had to embankment Yang Wu's attack.

Yang Wu also saw their panic, seized the opportunity, performed a big move technique, moved behind the two, and slammed out both fists, hitting the back of the man in black at the same time.

With such a fierce fist, the back bones of the two black-clothed men shattered, and the fist strength eroded their meridians. The powerful force knocked them away in an instant, and the two men in black spurted out a mouthful of blood at the same time, and fell to the ground with serious injuries.

The shattering of their backs made it difficult for them to get up, Yang Wu quickly moved forward, and the sword qi that fell to the side pointed at them and said: "You shadow kill forced my brother into the demon beast forest, life and death are unknown, killing you today is considered to be a little interest, don't you think you are also a sword master, today, I will let you die under your own sword." ”

The man in black looked at Yang Wu with a flat look and said, "We admit that we died at your hands today, but the three major families of your Yancheng will face the crazy revenge of our organization." ”

After speaking, the man in black decisively bit his tongue and committed suicide. The words of the man in black shocked Yang Wu's heart, and the shadow killing, which had been silent for more than two years, finally couldn't help but make a move. Yang Wu wanted to interrogate something more, but saw that the two men in black had died completely.

"I have to go back and inform them as soon as possible, or they will be in danger. He turned and walked towards the Yang Mansion.
