Chapter 587 1 is on the verge of breaking out
You must have heard that Zhang Xingchen met with the Emperor yesterday, and the two talked all night long. I wonder what they were discussing?
Zhao Beixing immediately informed Wei Zhongxian of the information he had received.
However, Wei Zhongxian laughed and said, "To tell you the truth, when Zhang Xingchen went to see the Emperor, I also went to see Zhang Xingchen. But the conditions that Zhang Xingchen proposed were too frightening."
"I just didn't agree." Wei Zhongxian said, feigning mystery, and looked at Zhao Beixing again, asking questions.
"Zhao Beixing, do you know what Zhang Xingchen said to me? You'll definitely slap him when you hear it." Wei Zhongxian's words surprised Zhao Beixing, who immediately pressed for an answer.
"What conditions did Zhang Xingchen propose to you? It must be much more than these things, right?" Zhao Beixing pointed to the boxes on the ground, and Wei Zhongxian laughed again.
"Zhang Xingchen is very ambitious. He wants to be the ruler of a country. He has even prepared the dragon robe, you know that?"
Wei Zhongxian's voice sounded as if it came from the depths of hell, making Zhao Beixingjing shudder. Who would have thought that Zhang Xingchen's change would be so drastic, wanting to become the ruler of a country? Wouldn't that be the same idea as Wei Zhongxian?
Wei Zhongxian said again, "Zhang Xingchen wants to be the ruler of a country, so what should I do?"
So the two of us couldn't reach an agreement at the time, and I felt that if Zhang Xingchen went to the Emperor, he wouldn't propose any more acceptable conditions. Wei Zhongxian was still speculating that Zhang Xingchen might have a falling out with the Emperor.
“The reason Zhang Xingchen is so confident is because he has his own Embroidered Uniform Guard. If the Emperor were to have the Embroidered Uniform Guard guarded by the Imperial Guard, Zhang Xingchen would be helpless.” Zhao Beixing’s words were immediately refuted by Wei Zhongxian.
“Yesterday, Zhang Xingchen even came to me and said he could cooperate with me, you know? Now I realize that Zhang Xingchen’s honest and simple personality was all an act.”
This is Zhang Xingchen's true self; he's been tolerating this for a long time, and now it's about to explode.
As these people were talking, Zhang Tianfei suddenly had a bad feeling, as if he were being watched closely in the dark.
Zhang Tianfei walked out with a puzzled look in his eyes, and saw a woman holding a long sword, staring coldly at him in front of the stinky tofu stall.
Although Zhang Tianfei understood that Zheng Yuqing must have come to assassinate Wei Zhongxian, he did not expect that she would return.
This surprised Zhang Tianfei. Zheng Yuqing looked at Zhang Tianfei walking towards her and immediately gave a cold smile.
"Zhang Tianfei, I've heard you're very capable, and your martial arts skills are quite good. I'd like to test my skills against you." Zheng Yuqing said and left on her own. Zhang Tianfei smiled coldly upon hearing Zheng Yuqing's words.
"I won't fall for your tricks. Just now, my master sent out so many martial arts practitioners, and you killed them all. You really have impressed me."
Zhang Tianfei knew that all the martial arts figures Wei Zhongxian had sent out had been killed by Zheng Yuqing.
Zhang Tianfei felt like he was dreaming, and Zheng Yuqing laughed again upon hearing Zhang Tianfei's words.
“If you don’t keep up with me, then you’re not a real man. Don’t disappoint me too much, or I’ll think you’re not even fit to be an assassin.”
After Zheng Yuqing finished speaking, she left again without even glancing at Zhang Tianfei. Zhang Tianfei was now completely enraged. As an assassin, Zhang Tianfei was very proud of himself.
Now a woman was actually questioning his identity, which Zhang Tianfei could not accept under any circumstances. At that time, Zhang Tianfei was furious and chased after her, but he did not see her.
In a certain place, Chen Er disguised himself as an ordinary citizen and, together with Ma Dazhi, Liu Chengdong, and a few others, headed towards a restaurant.
When Chen Er saw Wei Zhongxian and Zhao Beixing sitting together, he was a little surprised. Of course, Chen Er understood that Zhao Beixing was just like that; after all, a leopard can't change its spots.
Otherwise, Zhao Beixing wouldn't have stood on the opposite side of the emperor before. Zhao Beixing didn't even notice Chen Er's arrival. After thinking for a moment, he nodded seriously.
"Wei Zhongxian, since you've already asked, I'll definitely help you. However, it seems the Emperor has his own plans recently. Of course, I'll tell you all of the Emperor's plans in detail."
Chen Er wanted to hear the conversation between the two, so he had to find a place to sit down that was relatively close to Wei Zhongxian's location.
However, Chen Er noticed that the people sitting not far from Wei Zhongxian did not seem to be ordinary people. Just as Chen Er was wondering about this, Pang Huaiyi next to Chen Er tugged at Chen Er's clothes.
“Sir, these people are not ordinary civilians; they are all江湖人士 (jianghu figures) in disguise. It seems that Wei Zhongxian has been making thorough preparations recently.” Pang Huaiyi’s words immediately made Chen Er understand what was going on.
"It seems impossible to make a move today, after all, so many martial arts figures are here."
However, when Chen Er saw Zhao Beixing, he was furious. Before leaving, Chen Er had told the emperor that Zhao Beixing was not someone to be trusted, as he was not someone to be relied upon.
Moreover, when Chen Er left, he even recommended Qin Zhongting. It is unknown whether Qin Zhongting became the emperor's right-hand man.
Just as Zhao Beixing and Wei Zhongxian were about to discuss their plan, a cough interrupted their conversation. Wei Zhongxian and Zhao Beixing looked up curiously and saw a bearded man swaggering into their seats.
This caused Wei Zhongxian's brows to furrow involuntarily: "Brother, have you come to the wrong place? This place is reserved by me. You should find another seat." Wei Zhongxian's words were relatively polite.
Wei Zhongxian felt that the bearded man's demeanor was somewhat familiar, but he didn't immediately recognize him as Chen Er, who was disguised at the time.
Even if Qin Luoshen were here, she might not recognize Chen Er. Chen Er poured himself a full glass of wine and drank it down in one gulp.
"You two gentlemen are quite amused. What brings you to the restaurant for drinks today?"
Although Chen Er was disguised, his voice still made Wei Zhongxian and Zhao Beixing freeze in shock, and both of them stood up in surprise.
