Chapter 176: Stab the Prime Minister? Counterattack!
Chapter 176: Stab the Prime Minister? Counterattack!
The next day, Chu Danqing waited until nine o'clock in the morning before leaving Chongwei Valley.
As for whether Zhao Tiechuan would fulfill his five-day promise, Chu Danqing didn't care and had no intention of confirming it.
Anyway, his mission was accomplished.
[Mission Completed, You Gain: Paradise Points x 10000, Attribute Points +4]
It’s just that I haven’t got the Nine Cauldrons Map yet, which is a bit of a pity.
It is not clear at the moment how this side quest complements the trial quest.
Anyway, let’s go back to the city first. The paradise has warned people about the risks of being away from the city for too long.
"Ma Yunfeng was assassinated in his mansion last night?" Chu Danqing felt his blood pressure soar as he listened to Wei Chuyi's hurried report.
The process was roughly that the man seemed to be Ma Yunfeng's former classmate, which was why he was able to get close to him.
Then it was easy. He just pulled out the knife and stabbed Ma Yunfeng directly.
The person who did it failed to escape and is now in jail.
As for the interrogation, of course no one went to do it.
Jia Simiao took advantage of the situation to counterattack, and everything in the entire Linyuan City that had been suppressed by Ma Yunfeng began to rebound.
"This bastard plotted against me while I was away." Chu Danqing's face darkened.
If Chu Danqing were there, the assassin would not be able to succeed even if he got close.
This is an open conspiracy.
Ma Yunfeng sent Chu Danqing to stop the Black Flag Army, leaving himself open.
If they are not sent, the Black Flag Army entering the city will basically mean that the situation is already decided.
So Ma Yunfeng chose the former, but he didn't expect it to come so quickly, leaving him no time to react.
"Also, yesterday, the Iron Guard's Deputy Commander, Hong Chengyue, entered the city."
"The first thing we did after entering the city was to rush straight to Liu's Mansion under the leadership of Miss Lianyun. We captured Liu Bai, Chen Jiunan and others in a lightning speed." Wei Chuyi's face looked unhappy when he said this.
"The charge is that he is a traitor to the Zhaoming Society."
The arrest of Ma Yunfeng, Liu Bai, Chen Jiunan and others naturally affected Wei Chuyi.
Hearing this, Chu Danqing laughed speechlessly.
He thought Lianyun would at most fail, but he didn't expect that he would directly surrender to the enemy.
"Where is Commander Qi Qianshan?" Chu Danqing asked.
He was determined to kill, so after finding out the location, he went to kill them one by one.
"He didn't come. I heard that he received an imperial decree on the way, ordering Deputy Commander Hong Chengyue to bring most of the elite Iron Armored Guards to Linyuan City."
"But I suspect that Jingzhong believes the overall situation has been decided, so he asked Qi Qianshan to handle other matters."
"After all, Qi Qianshan and Zhao Tiechuan have always been at odds, but he's very close to Hong Chengyue." Wei Chuyi said, then paused: "Brother Chu, now is not the time to talk about this."
"Prime Minister Ma has been stabbed and is in imminent danger."
"This morning, Ma Xiang's servants reported that he might not survive the day," said Wei Chuyi.
When Chu Danqing heard this, he felt overwhelmed.
"Let me go. You should tell your men to keep a low profile."
"This time is different from before. If you are not careful, people will die." Chu Danqing warned.
He originally wanted to take Wei Chuyi with him and improve Wei Chuyi's favor with Ma Yunfeng, but he thought that Wei Chuyi must be developing an intelligence network without telling him.
Chu Danqing reminded him once, and he would not remind him a second time. Since it was Wei Chuyi's own choice, he would not continue to interfere.
After saying that, Chu Danqing went straight to the old house of the Ma family where Ma Yunfeng was.
The beast-faced warrior drove there without encountering any accidents and successfully met Ma Yunfeng lying on the hospital bed.
Ma Yunfeng, who was already old, looked even paler. Even if he was rescued this time, he probably wouldn't have much time to live.
The wound was under the ribs. Although the bleeding had stopped, it was inevitable that the internal organs would be damaged.
"You're back." Ma Yunfeng forced a smile when he saw Chu Danqing coming to visit him. "I already know about what happened between Master Chen and Liu Bai."
"They can't escape death this time. I won't survive this night."
"I'll leave the rest to you." Ma Yunfeng was unwilling to give up, so he entrusted all matters to Chu Danqing.
"Who did it?" Chu Danqing asked this question at the same time that Dabai released the single-target healing spiritual technique, Spiritual Healing, onto Ma Yunfeng's body as if it were free.
As the spiritual power entered his body, the paleness on Ma Yunfeng's face gradually faded away.
At the same time, the Son of Heaven also emerged from the imperial edict and began to impose various buffs on Ma Yunfeng.
After a while, Ma Yunfeng, who was originally on the verge of death, quickly recovered.
If Ma Yunfeng were a strong man, it would be difficult to treat such an injury.
But he is just an ordinary person. If Dabai and the Son of Heaven cannot even cure his injuries together, then Chu Danqing's investment will be of no use.
"Are you okay?" Ma Yunfeng touched the injury under his ribs and stood up.
"The medical skill of resurrecting the dead." Ma Yunfeng looked surprised. "Even the imperial doctors in the palace can't do it, and you actually have such a skill."
Chu Danqing just nodded without explaining, but urged: "Now that you have recovered, get back to work." "Chen Jiunan and Liu Bai are still waiting for you to rescue them."
"By the way, Zhao Tiechuan from the Black Flag Army asked me to give you a message," Chu Danqing repeated Zhao Tiechuan's words.
This made Ma Yunfeng look happy.
"Mr. Chu, you are indeed worthy of being the captain of the Qingyi Guard, a personal follower of the late emperor." Ma Yunfeng felt that his injury was worth it: "I only asked you to delay for one day, but you actually let him stay for five days."
"Extraordinary."
If there is only one day, Ma Yunfeng is very busy.
But if it were five days, he would not only be able to deal with Jia Simiao and Hong Chengyue, but also have time to win over Zhao Tiechuan.
Zhao Tiechuan wanted power, and what the Queen Mother could give him, Emperor Shuo could also give him, or even more.
"Praise me when you have time. After this is over, I'll take a day off to listen to your praise. I don't have time now." Chu Danqing didn't care about Ma Yunfeng's praise at all.
Besides, his praise was very awkward to hear. It was clearly his own achievement, but he had to give a share of the profits to the so-called late emperor.
The late emperor has been buried for many years, it is really outrageous that he could still be abducted.
Ma Yunfeng immediately stood up, put on his coat, and was about to go out.
"That Wei Chuyi under your command is quite a talent." On the way out of the house, he said, "He helped me a lot."
"He's quite ambitious. He keeps coming closer to me, as if he wants to take advantage of my influence."
"Be careful and don't let him use you as a stepping stone." Ma Yunfeng reminded.
Chu Danqing didn't care and just said, "I understand."
"I'm used to being poor, so I'm afraid. It's a rare opportunity to turn things around, so it's normal to grab it."
He defended Wei Chuyi.
As soon as the two of them walked out of the Ma family's old house, they were met by the armored guards who had been waiting for a long time.
The person leading the team was Jia Simu. When he saw Ma Yunfeng walking out so healthily, his expression suddenly changed.
"Governor Jia, you've come at the right time. I have something to talk to you about." Ma Yunfeng smiled.
He knew very well what Jia Simiao's intention was in bringing the armored guards here.
It’s nothing more than getting rid of the last variable, Chu Danqing, as soon as possible.
However, because Ma Yunfeng was still alive, he did not dare to take action openly, so he waited outside the mansion.
"Old sir." Jia Simu quickly restrained his expression and came over to say, "Your humble servant, Deputy Commander Hong, is here to arrest the Zhaoming Society rebels."
"Zhaoming Society is a traitor?" Ma Yunfeng chuckled, his expression suddenly changing: "Is it me?"
"No, no, no, it's Chu, the former captain of the Qingyi Guard." Jia Simu hurriedly explained.
But before he could finish his words, a golden light exploded from in front of Chu Danqing and instantly landed on Jia Simu.
He was knocked to the ground with one blow.
"You bastard, even if you want to throw dirty water on me, you should consider who I am." Chu Danqing cursed immediately: "When your grandfather followed the late emperor to fight in the south and the north, you, you bastard, didn't even know where you were."
"I, your grandfather, am a traitor to the Zhaoming Society? What's going on? Could it be that the late emperor has become the leader of the Zhaoming Society?"
Just as Jia Simiao struggled to get up, Dabao grabbed his neck and pulled him over.
The armored guards on the side immediately drew their swords and wanted to attack, but the ghost babies climbed onto their hands first, and their hands were frozen and numb due to the erosion of the Yin energy.
Seeing this, Jia Simu wanted to say something, but Dabao, under Chu Danqing's instructions, slapped him twice, knocking out most of his teeth.
"I knew you were a piece of shit, but you can't spit out ivory. If you do it again, I'll hang you up and whip you, so you can see how powerful this person, Chu, is as a guardian."
As soon as these words came out, Jia Simiao wanted to die.
Ma Yunfeng was also shocked when he saw this scene, and there was a hint of uncontrollable expression on his face.
The incident happened too suddenly, and he didn't expect Chu Danqing to act so cleanly and efficiently.
Fortunately, Chu Danqing did not really kill him, otherwise it would have been a trouble if Jia Simu had been killed in public.
"Governor Jia, what can I say about you?" Ma Yunfeng sighed and said helplessly, "Even an old man like me has to be courteous when meeting Mr. Chu."
"You open your mouth and say that Master Chu is a traitor without any evidence. I think someone is interfering."
"Leave it to me, Governor Jia, to come into the house and rest for a while." Ma Yunfeng said on the surface that he was thinking about you, but what he actually wanted to do was to put Jia Simu under house arrest.
His assassination was closely related to Jia Simiao.
Although he was not as straightforward as Chu Danqing, he did not intend to let Jia Simu go.
Jia Simu wanted to call for help, but Dabao was quick to slap him in the face, and he couldn't speak on the spot.
Several servants of the Ma Mansion worked together and dragged the man directly into the Ma Mansion.
As for the Ironclad Guards? They were controlled by the Ghostly Infants and couldn't even move, let alone save people.
"Mr. Chu, take this old man's warrant and bring out those who Governor Jia has portrayed as traitors to the Zhaoming Society."
"I want to conduct another trial to see if these people are truly traitors."
"Or is it that Governor Jia is eliminating dissidents?" Ma Yunfeng said, stroking his beard.
