The Fairy: From the Traveling Merchant

Chapter 711 Plan
You want me to guess again? Zhao Chen glanced at Zhong Ying's beautiful face and asked, "Is this the habit of your 'incarnation'?"

It's quite a contrast to the mysterious feeling of being shrouded in shadows before...

"What incarnation? I just asked you to remember my name." Zhong Ying pouted and said dissatisfiedly.

Seeing her cute appearance that was different from Qingyan and Qin Sheng, Zhao Chen felt quite refreshed, so he followed her words and said, "Okay, I guess that's it..."

As he spoke, he pinched his chin and thought for a moment, then said uncertainly: "Those who want to get rid of 'Yu Zhenzi' are probably his enemies... and the only female cultivator I know of who has a special physique and is coveted by Yu Zhenzi and the one behind him is Concubine Ning.

"Well, Shi Wenxuan from the Shi family should be counted as one, but after she was attacked, she didn't seem to know what she had really experienced...

"So, it's Concubine Ning?"

"No." Zhong Ying's bright eyes were filled with smiles, and she then announced the answer, "It's Shi Wenxuan who you have excluded."

From her mischievous character, it can be seen that Zhong Ying, the so-called head of the Evil Punishment Department, is not very old, at most sixteen or seventeen years old, but her strength is already a leader among supernatural powers, and her cultivation progress is even inferior to that of Qing Yan, the legitimate daughter of an aristocratic family.

I don't know how it was cultivated...

As his thoughts turned, Zhao Chen was really a little surprised, because he had come into contact with Shi Wenxuan before in the Xiliang Road government office. At that time, he only felt that the other party was lifeless, like rotten wood, and he didn't look like someone who would hire someone for revenge.

This might be a "protective color" that Shi Wenxuan disguised so that some people would feel at ease and neglect to supervise her...and she has actually been secretly investigating the truth of the disaster that happened back then?
She must have really found out something and felt that she was powerless to take revenge, so she could only vent her anger on accomplices like Yu Zhenzi...

But even so, she didn't dare to do it herself, and only entrusted it to killer organizations like "Yinsi".

In this way, the "Underworld" is indeed a very good "tool", especially in the Central Plains where rules are strictly enforced. All kinds of dirty work can be assigned to it. No wonder even the royal family wants to "invest".

Of course, I didn’t expect that the royal family had such a close relationship with the “underworld”…

According to Zhong Ying, the royal family's strength within the "Underworld" is almost enough to compete with "Empress Pingxin", and they usually wouldn't do so when investing in a secret organization.

Is there something special about the "Underworld"?
Furthermore, what was the original intention of "Empress Pingxin" to establish the "Underworld"?
Although he had many questions in his mind, Zhao Chen also knew that this was a question that Zhong Ying could not answer, otherwise the girl would have asked him to guess long ago.

So he skipped the topic and asked, "How do you think we can prevent those three companies from causing trouble for me?
"Shall I go and clarify?"

Zhong Ying shook his head and said, “Even if His Majesty denies it himself, those people will at best be skeptical and will still try their best to deal with you… unless you are willing to verify your bloodline and be rejected by the ‘family tree’.

"But the Ming family's genealogy is only taken out once a year during the grand festival, so it's still a long time ago."

"Then what should we do? What if they really increase the price? Wouldn't you be in trouble?" Zhao Chen frowned.

Seeing that he was not worried about his own safety but concerned about himself, Zhong Ying's eyes turned, her face slightly red, showing a look of emotion, and then whispered: "Since even the top magical powers can't take you down, they shouldn't ask the 'Yinsi' to do it again.

“Firstly, the price offered by the commander of the army or even the cave master is too high, and most of them don’t care about money. If you want to invite them out, you have to give them something that interests them.

“Even though the three princes’ families are wealthy and powerful, they cannot guarantee that they can hire assassins at the Dongxuan level.

"Secondly, no real person is willing to get involved in the mess between the royal heirs. Not only is it thankless, but it will also offend the current emperor." "So, I guess they will most likely wait for you to leave Jiuzhou and use the power of their subordinates to surround and kill you."

The blushing performance was okay. Although not as natural as Zheng Qingyan, nor as sophisticated as Qin Sheng, the acting master, but as a young girl, she did a good job.

After making a comment in his mind, Zhao Chen thought for a moment and then spoke carefully:

"How could they be sure that I would definitely leave Kyushu?"

Zhong Ying explained with a smile: "They will definitely use various means to drive you away... In addition, you are currently only in the 'Gangsha Realm', and if you want to compete for that position, you must have supernatural powers to have a chance... If you are really determined, you will definitely go out to gain experience."

"I see..." Zhao Chen nodded first, then sighed, "In this case, we still have to completely get rid of those princes and princes in the capital."

"Hey, don't do anything rash! The capital is the best place to live. Once we take action, the people from the Six Gates will be here in no time. There must be a 'military commander' hiding in the palace." Although Zhong Ying knew that Erlang was not a reckless person, he still reminded him according to his own personality.

Well, now she is playing the role of a little girl who is gradually fascinated by Erlang.

Now it is still in the initial stage where I have just developed a liking for him.

"Of course I won't do anything rash..." Zhao Chen smiled and cooperated with the acting. He leaned close to the ear of the little girl in black and whispered his initial plan. At the end, he said, "Even if we can't eliminate them, we have to give them something to do, so that they don't always come to trouble me."

Because they were so close, Erlang's lips were right next to her ear, and Zhong Ying could even feel his warm breath on her cheek.

Call ~
There was no need to pretend this time, Zhong Ying’s face was really red.

She tried to calm herself down and commented, "Although it's a bit too idealistic, it's worth a try.

"If it succeeds, at least King Liang will not have the time to trouble you anymore."

However, she soon discovered another thing, that is, although Jilang's plan was preliminary, it was also quite detailed and did not seem to be something that was thought up on the spur of the moment.

Moreover, this plan also reveals another fact: Erlang actually has a considerable understanding of the King of Liang, the King of Xiang, and the King of Wei...

But when he asked me just now if someone might have hired someone to kill him, his expression and tone didn't seem like he was pretending, right?
How is this going?

Zhong Ying looked at Zhao Chen suspiciously for a long time, but still couldn't help but ask.

Zhao Chen laughed and responded, "Because before you came, someone else had visited here and left a document.

"It's just that you came before I had a chance to see you... and just now, while I was thinking about what you asked me to guess, I took a quick look and found that it contained detailed information about people in the capital who might be harmful to me."

"Who gave you this thing?" Zhong Ying asked in surprise.

"On the surface, she's a long-legged lady in black stockings, but I guess she's actually working for Lord Johnson from the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
