Werner theory states that every metal cation has a fixed coordination no. But if we consider K4[Fe(CN)6] and [Fe(Cl)4]^-2 the coordination no. of iron in both cases is different?

fr can exist in 2 forms , that is +2 state and +3 state , 
so, the two states should have to be considered diffrently ,
