Chapter 123 Check-in at Zilanxuan
When Zi Nu heard Cheng Jiao's words, she spoke in a serious tone.
"I received news that many assassins and spies from Luowang entered Xinzheng today and seemed to have had contact with the General's Mansion."
Zi Nu knew that Jing Niu was a top-ranking official judged by Luo Wang, and she had also heard from Cheng Jiao about Cheng Jiao being assassinated by Luo Wang.
So he came in person to inform Cheng Jiao of this information.
Cheng Jiao and Jing Wei looked at each other and read each other's thoughts from each other's eyes.
Luowang assassins entered Xinzheng, and Ji Wuye invited them that night.
If there are no ghosts, it would be an insult to people's intelligence.
Judging from the time, it is estimated that Zheng Ge has already gone on a secret visit to Xinzheng accompanied by Gai Nie.
Lu Buwei has always been a very cautious guy. Look at that rainy night. In order to kill me, he not only used Xuan Jian, but also let Yan Ri come as well.
If I hadn't decisively used all my attribute points to improve Jingwei's strength, the grass on my grave would probably be three meters high by now.
So, who will come to Luowang this time?
Jingwei escaped from Luowang and became his man, so Lu Buwei could not ignore it.
If he comes to assassinate the king again this time, he will never let me go.
After all, Zheng Ge is dead, and he has gained the greatest benefit. It is impossible for Lao Lu to make wedding dresses for him.
The most likely scenario is that Zhengge and he were killed together in Xinzheng.
Cheng Jiao had already thought of the reason. He intended to seize the throne and assassinate the King of Qin, and both of them died.
There is no reason more convincing to the people of the world and to the Qin State than this.
Since ancient times, there have been countless brothers fighting each other for the supreme power.
Seeing Cheng Jiao in deep thought, Zi Nu's pretty face showed worry: "Luo Wang may have come here to target you, young master."
Cheng Jiao came back to his senses and looked at Zi Nu's worried eyes: "What is there to worry about? Luo Wang will come if he wants to. With you and Li Wu Jing Niu, how can we be afraid of them?"
Zi Nu glanced at the child and Ahri in Jing Wei's arms.
"Just in case, you guys come to Zi Lan Xuan. There are mechanical devices and some sisters with strong kung fu skills in Zi Lan Xuan."
Jingwei pursed her pink lips. She was naturally not afraid of the net, but Xiaoyaner and A Li could easily become shackles that bound her and Cheng Jiao.
"Sir, you can do as Zi Nu said."
Cheng Jiao looked at the worry in Jing Wei's clear eyes and said with a smile: "Of course, I'm not that stubborn."
He hesitated for a moment and said, "If I am right, Ji Wuye might take action tonight. Why don't we..."
Zi Nu chuckled: "I have already made an agreement with Wei Zhuang that he will give Ji Wuye a surprise here."
Cheng Jiao thought to himself, he is worthy of being my brother-in-law, so righteous!
The small courtyard was very close to Zilanxuan. In order to prevent any accidents, Ali carried Xiao Yaner and followed Zinu to temporarily stay in Zilanxuan.
Li Wu watched Zi Nu leave, feeling a little disappointed. Whether in terms of figure or temperament, she was inferior to Zi Nu.
She became more determined to form a harem killer group. If she could tie Jingwei and Ali together, she would be invincible!
Night fell quietly, and the hooded Jingwei drove a carriage and went to the general's mansion with Chengjiao.
Li Wu was left alone in the courtyard, while Brother Wei Zhuang stood in the dark, watching Cheng Jiao's carriage leave.
What’s different from the last time is that this time, only Bai Feng was at the gate of the general’s mansion.
Cheng Jiao heard Jingwei's voice.
"The black crow has left, and is heading in our direction."
Cheng Jiao narrowed his eyes and said, "You really wanted to act in advance. Fortunately, Zi Nu received the information in advance and reminded me."
A cold light flashed in Jingwei's eyes. If Cheng Jiao hadn't said to hold back for the time being, he would have definitely killed Ji Wuye at this moment.
Jingwei would not forget his sword and his killing intent for anyone who threatened Xiaoyan'er's life. Cheng Jiao held her soft and boneless little hand and smiled softly, "I'm afraid your identity has been exposed."
Cheng Jiao and Jing Wei were not surprised at her identity being exposed.
The dragnet of heaven and earth is pervasive and can penetrate any hole. For most people in this era, this is no joke.
This time, Jingwei did not wait for Chengjiao in the carriage, but followed behind him closely.
"Bai Feng, where's Mo Ya?"
Bai Feng sighed in his heart. Some innocent lives were about to die, but he was powerless to stop it.
It is a pity that the girl and the little one in Cheng Jiao's courtyard are now becoming Ji Wuye's bargaining chips.
"Mo Ya is busy with something, so Bai Feng will take Chang An Jun into the mansion for the time being."
Cheng Jiao shook his head slightly, fearing that Mo Ya was in trouble again.
Bai Feng is still young. Although he is a killer, he exudes an artistic temperament.
In other words, he is strong enough and can be considered a master in the world. Otherwise, with his temper, something bad would happen sooner or later.
But the speed is quite fast, it should be very good to use it to run errands and deliver a love letter for him.
Under the guidance of Bai Feng, as soon as Cheng Jiao entered, Ji Wuye, the Blood-Robed Marquis's gaze was focused on the hooded Jing Wei behind him.
A look of fear appeared in Ji Wuye and Xueyi Hou's eyes.
Luowang's top-ranked killer is a deterrent to those in power in this era.
However, without Luo Wang's first-class rank, it was not enough to scare Ji Wuye and Xue Yi Hou.
After all, personal force cannot compare to the stranglehold of the army. Just as Zheng Ge’s domineering declaration said, if three hundred people are not enough, then three thousand, thirty thousand, or three hundred thousand!
"I haven't seen you for a long time. Chang'an Jun is still as charming as ever."
Ji Wuye saw Cheng Jiao sitting down, holding up his wine glass and speaking polite words in a flowery manner.
The sword was very close to him, allowing his other hand to grasp it in the shortest possible time.
Cheng Jiao and Jing Wei sensed heavy figures outside the house and the sound of light footsteps that were intermittent.
But they were not at all panicked, knowing that Ji Wuye was putting pressure on them.
As for whether there will be a fight, Ji Wuye and Xueyi Hou will not take any action unless Cheng Jiao takes the initiative.
If he died in Xinzheng, Zhengge would definitely receive the news first and run back to the Xianyang Palace overnight.
Lu Buwei would not lose the big picture for the sake of small gains, so he might have to warn Ji Wuye to be nice to Cheng Jiao, at least not to let Cheng Jiao get into trouble before Zheng Ge arrived in Xinzheng.
"General, you are too kind. I wonder why you and the Marquis are having a feast with Cheng Jiao at night."
Ji Wuye chuckled and said, "It's been so long since I last heard about the Treasure Pavilion. It's time for Tiger to tell Chang'an Jun about it. Tiger, tell Chang'an Jun about it."
Luo Wang suddenly arrived in Xinzheng and wanted to cooperate with Ye Mu. He also said that he could not harm Cheng Jiao's life, but he could do whatever he wanted with the rest.
This gave Ji Wuye an idea, and he prepared to control Cheng Jiao's weakness first.
The tiger raised his wine glass to toast Cheng Jiao from afar.
"Thanks to Chang'an Jun's method, Jubao Pavilion is now making millions of gold every day. I'm afraid half of South Korea's wealth lies here."
Cheng Jiao casually returned the toast: "I wonder if Brother Hu could tell me how much wealth the Jubao Pavilion has gathered?"
Jade Tiger said excitedly: "The total is more than 600,000 gold coins. In less than three months, such wealth has been accumulated. It is hard to find such wealth in the Seven Kingdoms!"
Wow, Brother Hu is quite honest.
Cheng Jiao smiled faintly: "When will the general start sharing this wealth?"
