Chapter 137: Lao Ai's Head
After leaving Zilanxuan, Xueyi Hou looked at the information in his hand with a gloomy expression.

He originally wanted to use Madam Mingzhu to control Cheng Jiao's Gu and force Cheng Jiao to reveal the secret of Baiyue treasure and conversation with Yanri.

I didn't expect to receive the information just handed over by Madam Mingzhu.

The child Gu in Cheng Jiao's body is dead, and it is suspected that it has been broken by the mother Gu in his house.

Marquis Xueyi was very angry. He had been refraining from using Madam Mingzhu's mother Gu and had never used it to threaten Cheng Jiao.

It was just to give Cheng Jiao a surprise, but I didn't expect that Cheng Jiao had already discovered it.

It was also because he trusted the power of Baiyue Gu Shu too much that he ignored the fact that Cheng Jiao had a very strong Jing Wei who was from the top class of Luowang.

It is not difficult to discover the abnormality in Cheng Jiao's body.

He was vaguely worried that Cheng Jiao was so scheming and his plans might be of great significance.

In Xinzheng, the only place that could attract Cheng Jiao seemed to be Jubao Pavilion.

Could it be that Cheng Jiao didn't just want the 100,000 gold in there, but all of it?
The Blood-Robed Marquis's expression changed slightly. It was indeed impossible for Cheng Jiao alone to transport such a huge fortune, but with the support of Liusha, it was hard to say that it was impossible.

With this thought in mind, Marquis Xueyi turned around and went to Ji Wuye's residence. This matter needed further discussion.

Yanri and Chengjiao sat facing each other.

No one said another word.

Cheng Jiao tapped the table lightly with his fingers.

He was a little confused about whether what Yanri said was true or false.

According to his speculation, it was most likely that Lu Buwei sent Yanri to him, instigated him to assassinate Ying Zheng, and then killed him.

But these are not important. Anyway, Yanri doesn't know that he has no interest in the throne, so it is right to get more information.

"Your sincerity is not enough."

Although he is not interested in the throne, it does not prevent him from showing great interest in it now.

Yanri did not put on the bronze mask he had taken off.

"Night is going to attack you after we act."

"Using me as a scapegoat?"

"Yes, we are going to use our hands to kill you."

Yanri thought that Cheng Jiao's heart was moved. People like them, once moved, would never be able to turn back.

No one could resist the temptation of the supreme throne, so he began to use honorific titles for Cheng Jiao.

"Only this?"

Yanri gritted his teeth.

"King Zheng of Qin will arrive in Xinzheng soon."

Looking at Yanri's sincere look, Cheng Jiao felt speechless.

Indeed, if he didn't know, this news would definitely be sincere enough.

He sighed in his heart and wanted to tell Yanri, "Please tell me the other information that you think is not sincere."
Yanri had been watching Cheng Jiao's expression and eyes.

Seeing that Cheng Jiao is still the same as before, I secretly admire him. He is a real character and worth investing in.

"How many people came to Luowang this time?"

Yanri said solemnly: "I, and Black and White Xuan Jian. I found Xuan Jian, but he is still a little confused. He often uses Qiansha's personality, but he still listens to my orders."

"That's it?"

Yanri pondered: "Lu Buwei also sent Lao Ai, one of his men, but he only listens to Lu Buwei and has no connection with me."

Cheng Jiao suddenly felt a little confused, listening to this familiar yet unfamiliar name.

Even Lao Ai, who can turn the wheel, wants to come over?

This script is kind of broken.

"Lao Ai? What strength?"

"He was ranked as a Luowang killer, but was not promoted to the first rank because he completed fewer missions. He was personally named by Lü Buwei to inherit the Sun-Covering Sword."

"Strong?"

Yanri glanced at Jingwei.

"No worse than the former Jingwei."

Cheng Jiao sighed lightly. Two sun-blocking creatures have already appeared, who will be the third one?

"I heard there are three Yanri, who is the third one?" Yanri was startled and frowned: "There is only one Yanri, the one holding the Yanri sword is Yanri, the others are all substitutes."

Cheng Jiao looked at Yanri like this, as if to say, I have too many aliases, more than three, I don't know who the third one is.
"How can I believe that you really want to help me take the throne? After all, you did try to assassinate me not long ago. How can you prove that you are not a spy sent by Lu Buwei?"

He looked at Yanri's silence and smiled in his heart. The best way to solve a problem is to throw it back.

Yanri's eyes gradually became fierce.

How to prove it is both difficult and easy.

He said word by word: "Changan Jun, how do you want me to prove it?"

Cheng Jiao chuckled and said, "I want to see Lao Ai's head before my brother arrives in Xinzheng."

If it were someone else, he might not necessarily want his head, after all, he didn't know him.

But Brother Lao Ai is different, he is very famous.

He believed in the value of Lao Ai's head.

He covered his face and said nothing.

He did not lie, Lao Ai was indeed the next Yan Ri trained by Lu Buwei.

This was a condition proposed by Lu Buwei when Luowang entered Qin.

If Lao Ai died, he and Lu Buwei would break off completely.

The final beneficiary will be the young man named Zhao Gao.

Unless Cheng Jiao can successfully ascend the throne.

And the reason he came here was to take a gamble and bet on his future.

"Please wait for good news, Lord Chang'an."

After Yanri finished speaking, he put on the bronze mask again and walked out of Zilanxuan steadily.

Looking at Yanri's departing back, Cheng Jiao smacked his lips.

Why does it feel a bit like the story of Jing Ke assassinating the King of Qin, the wind is whistling and the Yi River is cold, the hero leaves and never comes back.

"Jingwei, what do you think?"

"Sir, I think there must be something fishy about this matter and we should investigate it further."

Jingwei knelt beside Chengjiao, her naturally beautiful face was not calm.

No matter what era, assassinating the king and killing his emperor is an extremely dangerous thing.

Cheng Jiao looked at the uneasiness in Jingwei's eyes.

"You also think I want to assassinate my brother?"

Jingwei shook his head gently: "I know you are not interested in this and prefer to indulge in pleasure. I am just worried that Yanri has other plans."

Cheng Jiao held Jingwei's beautiful little face in his hands and kissed her on her pink thin lips.

"The one who understands me best is Jing Wei. With a wife like this, what else could a husband ask for?"

Zi Nu leaned on the railing of the stairs, silently watching the ambiguity between Cheng Jiao and Jing Wei.

With his eyes half closed, he turned around and went up to the second floor, just in time to meet Han Fei and Wei Zhuang who were about to come down.

"Miss Zi Nu, what are you doing?"

As an expert in love affairs, Han Fei knew that Zi Nu must be feeling uncomfortable when he saw her gloomy expression.

But now is not the time to act on emotion. Just now, Wei Zhuang confirmed through his description that it was the Sun-Covering Sword of the Eight Swords of King Yue.

The Night Blood-Robed Marquis and the Luowang leader Yanri, these two people hanging out together are not joking or playing house.

As the intelligence chief of Liusha, Zi Nu cannot be absent at this time.

Zi Nu smiled, but it was a forced smile.

"I forgot something in the house. I'll be there later."

Han Fei said no more after hearing this. Wei Zhuang did not say anything, but held Shark Tooth's hand with extra force.

Although Wei Zhuang was not clear about the love affairs, he was still able to observe the words and expressions.

Zi Nu was fine when she came down, but just as she went down, she came up again, looking a little sad.

Needless to say, it is known that Cheng Jiao is not acting right again. He must be being affectionate with Jing Wei and Zi Nu saw it.

However, he discovered a problem. He seemed unable to defeat Jingwei.
