Chapter 593 Aggressive Momentum
Chapter 593 Aggressive Momentum
Zhang Tianfei spoke very seriously, and when Chen Er came again, he knew that Zhang Tianfei was an assassin who would respond to gentle persuasion but not force.
However, Chen Er came prepared this time. He turned his body slightly to the side and looked at Zhang Tianfei with a cold smile.
"Do you know that Yang Xiaomei is dead?"
"He died yesterday in Wei Zhongxian's room, and his death was extremely gruesome. My informant told me that Wei Zhongxian whipped him to death." Chen Er's words struck Zhang Tianfei like a bolt from the blue, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.
Veins bulged on Zhang Tianfei's forehead. He suddenly stood up and said, "You're talking nonsense. I've never heard of such a thing."
"I've always lived in Wei Zhongxian's residence. If Yang Xiaomei were dead, I should have known," Zhang Tianfei said, as if remembering something.
"Didn't Yang Xiaomei elope with Ma Tiantao? How could she have died in Wei Zhongxian's room?" Chen Er smiled indifferently.
"Wei Zhongxian hasn't told you yet, has he already had his guards secretly bring Yang Xiaomei back? My informant told me that Yang Xiaomei had been bullied by more than a dozen guards before."
"Stop talking. I know you're determined to help me assassinate Wei Zhongxian, but don't you feel ashamed to use such methods?"
Zhang Tianfei said defiantly, and Chen Er, seeing Zhang Tianfei's tough attitude, felt helpless.
"Alright, I don't want to waste my breath on you anymore. You can go now. I need to go back and tell Ma Tiantao about this." Chen Er was about to leave when Zhang Tianfei suddenly called out to him.
"And who are your informants? Why have I never heard of them before?" Chen Er smiled indifferently.
"I never fight a battle I'm not sure I can win. Otherwise, why would I be able to rival Wei Zhongxian in recent years? Is it just because I'm a favorite of the Emperor?"
Stop dreaming. Everyone has their own trump card; otherwise, I wouldn't have lasted this long.
Chen Er's words left Zhang Tianfei somewhat confused. By the time Zhang Tianfei fully realized what was happening, Chen Er had already disappeared into the crowd, and Zhang Tianfei's eyes were practically spitting fire.
He secretly vowed that if Yang Xiaomei really died, he would do anything to kill Wei Zhongxian and help Yang Xiaomei avenge her.
Chen Er stood in the grove, seemingly waiting for someone to appear. Soon after, a guard ran over, looking very nervous. Upon seeing Chen Er, the guard immediately knelt on the ground.
"Lord Chen Er, I wonder what brings you here? Wei Zhongxian is still furious at home, and I had to sneak out." The speaker was a eunuch, one of Wei Zhongxian's most trusted men. Chen Er smiled.
"There's one thing I need to ask of you: do everything you can to have Yang Xiaomei's body paraded through the streets." Chen Er's words startled the eunuch, who swallowed hard.
I don't understand what kind of medicine Chen Er is selling in his gourd.
"Lord Chen Er, have you gone mad? Yang Xiaomei is dead now. When I arrived, I saw Zhang Tianfei, looking very aggressive, going to find Wei Zhongxian. I guess it was also about Yang Xiaomei."
"If we were to parade Yang Xiaomei's body through the streets now, wouldn't that offend a lot of people?"
Chen Er laughed and said, "Those who do great things don't concern themselves with trifles. I did this out of necessity. I just had Zhang Tianfei deal with Wei Zhongxian. That way, it will be much easier for us to deal with Zhang Xingchen next."
Chen Er spoke from the heart. What Chen Er feared most right now was that he was trying every means to deal with Zhang Xingchen.
Suddenly, Wei Zhongxian stabbed him in the back. If Chen Er wanted to fight back, he would be attacked from both sides. No matter how powerful Chen Er was, he would be unable to withstand the attack.
Left with no other choice, Chen Er had to tamper with Yang Xiaomei's corpse. Chen Er was certain that if Wei Zhongxian's men were to drag Yang Xiaomei's body out and parade it through the streets...
Zhang Tianfei will definitely take revenge on Wei Zhongxian in a frenzy. Chen Er looked at the eunuch prostrate on the ground without moving, and Chen Er knew very well that this was the case.
If this matter is handled well, it will be very advantageous for our side. At the very least, it will allow the assassin Zhang Tianfei and Wei Zhongxian to fight each other, allowing us to reap the benefits.
We can also lead Wei Zhongxian by the nose, so why not? Chen Er smiled helplessly. Xiao Xin took out all the gold ingots she had on her.
"These are all gifts for you. I hope you can do this well and not disappoint me." When Zhao Dabao saw that Chen Er had said this and given him so many things, Zhao Dabao was extremely grateful and ran away with the gold ingots.
Chen Er gave a helpless bitter smile before turning to leave. Zheng Yuqing had been in Chen Er's study for half an hour, and it was getting dark, but Chen Er still hadn't returned.
This made Zheng Yuqing irritable, so she went to find Ma Dazhi.
"I was wondering where Chen Er went. Why hasn't he come back yet? I have something to discuss with him." Although Ma Dazhi hadn't known Zheng Yuqing for very long.
However, I do know a little about this woman's personality; she dreams of assassinating Wei Zhongxian.
This gave Ma Dazhi a huge headache: "I told you, Miss, please don't act rashly. Our plan has changed. The most important person now is not Wei Zhongxian but Zhang Xingchen."
Upon hearing Ma Dazhi's words, Zheng Yuqing displayed a strange expression.
"Dealing with Zhang Xingchen is your business. Anyway, I don't know much about Zhang Xingchen. My only goal is to kill Wei Zhongxian." Zheng Yuqing's words made Pang Huaiyi, who was sitting and drinking tea, laugh.
"Girl Zheng Yuqing is so chivalrous and courageous, why don't you count me in too? Let's go together and commit suicide against Wei Zhongxian."
Pang Huaiyi spoke very seriously, without the slightest hint of joking, which made Zheng Yuqing nod slightly. Ma Dazhi was now feeling completely overwhelmed.
Zheng Yuqing was already quite bold, but she was already helpless on her own. Now that Pang Huaiyi has joined her, it's giving Ma Dazhi a real headache.
"I say, you two, please don't get upset. Lord Chen Er will be back soon. Let's hear what our boss has to say first. You don't want to cause trouble for our boss at this crucial moment, do you?"
