Chapter 340 - 88: Sometimes Living Is More Painful Than Dying (Part 2)
Unreasonable!
"What exactly do you want to do, Ye Liuyun!"
Even though Ye Liuyun had never appeared in this matter from beginning to end.
Yet at the first moment the plan failed, Fu Zhengqing inexplicably thought of Ye Liuyun. Don’t ask why, it’s the intuition of a Grandmaster.
The main reason is that.
This matter clearly had someone backing it, using the assassination of the envoy to plot against Marquis Rong’gong.
And the people who knew about this plan were very few, the people from the Illusion Sound Sect couldn’t possibly betray him, right?
Calculating in this way.
The only person Fu Zhengqing could think of was Ye Liuyun.
He was also the only person Fu Zhengqing couldn’t see through.
Clearly, as long as the old emperor exits the closed-door training safely and resumes the throne.
By then, it would be bad for both him and Ye Liuyun.
In Fu Zhengqing’s view, he and Ye Liuyun shared the same goal, neither should want the old emperor to break through safely, even if they were not allies, they shouldn’t be adversaries either.
"Are you really not afraid?"
As he said this.
Fu Zhengqing’s gaze deepened.
That’s the Land Immortal level,
The legendary realm.
A realm even he had to avoid provoking, could it be that Ye Liuyun wasn’t worried at all?
Was it youthful ignorance and fearlessness,
Or was there another motive?
Fu Zhengqing, who always calculated everything in his heart, felt for the first time that something was beyond his control.
And this feeling made Fu Zhengqing very uncomfortable.
"Master!"
At this moment.
The servant from the residence came over respectfully.
Bowing to Fu Zhengqing, he said,
"Marquis Rong’gong sent a box of gold, saying it’s to pay respect to Master!"
Previously, Marquis Rong’gong would often send money to Fu Zhengqing, also to get closer to Fu Zhengqing, the Prime Minister.
But.
On the second day after being deposed, he couldn’t wait to send money, what exactly was his scheme, how could Fu Zhengqing not see it?
"Return the money the same way it came in!"
Fu Zhengqing said this lightly.
If Fu Zhengqing really wanted money.
He didn’t even have to say much, just a hint, and many outside would come rushing to send money.
Due to the plan’s failure.
Even if there were no significant changes in expression outwardly, he must be quite annoyed internally.
In such a time.
The person who sabotaged his plan still wanted to suck up to him with money and seek his protection?
Even though Fu Zhengqing knew Marquis Rong’gong was just a tool for someone else, it didn’t prevent Fu Zhengqing from implicating Marquis Rong’gong in this matter.
The fact that he didn’t do anything directly against Marquis Rong’gong.
Already showed Fu Zhengqing’s good state of mind.
"Yes, Master!"
Hearing this.
The servant didn’t dare say more.
He agreed and then left.
Fu Zhengqing kept holding the chess pieces, placing them on the board continuously, not putting the gift giving matter at heart. What he thought about now were other things.
"Phew!"
Finally, a game ended.
Fu Zhengqing, who stopped placing pieces, sat back steadily, his state of mind still somewhat unstable.
,,
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!"
At the same time, on Marquis Rong’gong’s side, he was furious.
If it were just the gift being refused by Fu Zhengqing, Marquis Rong’gong might not have been so angry.
After all, even if Fu Zhengqing accepted the gifts in the past, Marquis Rong’gong never even got a chance to meet Fu Zhengqing, and he didn’t dare to claim anything recklessly.
But this time was different.
Fu Zhengqing’s refusal seemed like a signal.
After others received this message, even those who loved money.
But after a bit of deliberation, they too returned the money.
The successive rejection of gifts made Marquis Rong’gong realize that the network of connections he had painstakingly built over the years collapsed overnight.
Originally, it was because of money that he could bind them.
But now, even money wasn’t accepted.
"Who on earth is it!"
Marquis Rong’gong didn’t understand who he had offended to be schemed against to such an extent.
Could it really just be an old enemy from years ago?
"Damn it!"
In his anger, Marquis Rong’gong directly picked up the vase beside him and smashed it to the ground.
"Bang!"
The sound of the vase shattering made the maids and servants nearby jump in fright.
They trembled.
Silently standing aside, not daring to say a word.
Afraid of being implicated by Marquis Rong’gong’s fury if they said something.
"Phew!"
But.
Just smashing a vase made Marquis Rong’gong pant heavily, sweat starting to appear on his forehead.
With his Dantian destroyed.
Although Marquis Rong’gong was not dead, his stamina was not even on par with an ordinary person.
Walking a bit more on ordinary days would make him feel fatigued.
This sense of powerlessness made Marquis Rong’gong extremely insecure, what if the enemy from that day returned now?
Marquis Rong’gong couldn’t even bear to imagine such a scene.
This time.
He probably wouldn’t even have the strength to pull servants in front of him to shield himself.
Realizing this, a guarded look flashed in Marquis Rong’gong’s eyes, now seeing the servants around, he felt there could be hidden assassins among them.
"Haven’t you made contact yet?"
