Chapter 239: Defeating the Kingdom and Becoming King
Jiang Ziluo looked at Leng Chenming in confusion, muttering to herself. Now was obviously not the time to ask, but she really wanted to know who this person was.
However, she also understood that now was not the time to ask these questions. So, she could only suppress her curiosity and continue to pay attention to the development of the situation.
Leng Chenming did not look at Jiang Ziluo, but cast his eyes on King Cheng and other officials in the distance. He was thinking secretly in his heart.
"When did King Cheng arrive in Kyoto? When did he collude with Leng Yuxun?" This question bothered him and made him feel very confused.
Looking at the officials in front of him, Leng Chenming realized that Leng Yuxun might have something important to do this time.
The fact that King Cheng was present in person undoubtedly showed that the relationship between them was already quite close, and this connection was probably not something that happened overnight. Thinking of this, Leng Chenming couldn't help but frown, and a feeling of worry surged in his heart.
Both of them had different doubts in their minds, but at this time they could only keep the doubts in their hearts.
But after King Cheng arrived, Leng Yuxun did not talk about the previous events, and casually exchanged pleasantries and talked with others. Then he asked someone to bring out the women from before.
"Everyone, these beauties are prepared for you. You can take them home or keep them outside. It's up to you."
After hearing this, everyone showed joy. For these officials, such a reward was rare. Their gratitude to Leng Yuxun became deeper and deeper, and they all expressed their willingness to be loyal to him.
Leng Chenming knew that Leng Yuxun must have some ulterior motive for this move, but Cheng Wang was not interested in these women. He was more concerned about the collusion between Leng Yuxun and other officials and their purpose.
Although he was full of doubts, King Cheng did not show them. He decided to wait and see how the situation developed. After all, now was not the time to reveal everything. He needed to wait for the right opportunity.
Leng Yuxun secretly observed King Cheng's reaction. Seeing King Cheng so calm, he couldn't help but feel a little alert, and felt that he couldn't take it lightly.
After saying that, Leng Yuxun winked at the people around him, then stood up and left Qingyun Inn with big strides.
Seeing this, King Cheng also quickly stood up and followed. However, Leng Yuxun did not leave immediately, but stood at the door, watching King Cheng's back as he walked away.
Afterwards, he turned and left. After Leng Yuxun left, the people around Leng Yuxun began to get busy.
He first arranged those beautiful women to dance happily, and for a while, the Qingyun Inn was filled with laughter.
Following the rhythm of the music, those beauties danced gracefully, like fairies descending to earth, which was intoxicating.
Then, the man walked up to the officials and whispered to them to choose the beauty of their choice.
At the same time, he also ordered his servants to light a special incense - psychedelic incense.
The aroma of this spice can make people hallucinate, as if they are in a fairyland.
As the psychedelic incense burned, the Qingyun Inn suddenly became like a dream, as beautiful as a paradise.
After seeing Leng Yuxun leave, Jiang Ziluo and Leng Chenming also hurriedly left Qingyun Inn.
There was someone secretly following Leng Yuxun, but there was no one behind Cheng Wang.
In the past few days, Leng Chenming has sent all his men out, some to gather information, and the other part to monitor various important figures.
At this moment, Leng Chenming saw that King Cheng had not gone far, and he had an idea and decided to follow him quietly.
He wanted to know if King Cheng was hiding something else from Leng Yuxun, or if he had any secrets that he couldn't tell anyone.
Leng Chenming had met Cheng Wang several times and had a certain understanding of him. He knew that Cheng Wang was skilled in martial arts, but he was not sure about the level of Cheng Wang's martial arts.
Therefore, when he decided to follow King Cheng, he chose to keep a safe distance and follow carefully.
Doing so not only avoids being noticed by King Cheng, but also puts himself in a relatively safe position. If the situation changes, he will be able to react in time and protect himself.
This caution and vigilance demonstrates Leng Chenming's qualities as a smart person. He knows that he must remain calm when facing unknown situations and be prepared for all possibilities.
King Cheng did not meet Leng Yuxun, but disappeared without a trace near Chunfeng Tower. This surprised Leng Chenming, who had been following him, and he couldn't help feeling uneasy.
At the same time, Jiang Ziluo, who was standing not far away, looked at Chunfeng Tower, which had its doors closed during the day, and was filled with doubts and curiosity. She couldn't help but fall into deep thought, trying to find some clues from this seemingly ordinary place.
Leng Chenming saw that he had lost the person, so he stopped lingering. He turned around and his eyes fell on Jiang Ziluo who was standing beside him. Jiang Ziluo was still immersed in her own thoughts at this time, and she didn't come back to her senses until Leng Chenming walked to her side.
"Leng Chenming, who was that person just now?" Jiang Ziluo looked at Leng Chenming curiously, with a gleam of curiosity in his eyes, as if he was expecting a satisfactory answer.
However, Leng Chenming did not answer her question immediately. He looked around solemnly, as if he was on guard against something. Then, he lowered his voice and said to Jiang Ziluo, "Let's go back to the mansion first. I will tell you everything when we get back." After that, he took Jiang Ziluo's hand and turned to walk towards the palace.
Jiang Ziluo walked with Leng Chenming's hand for a long time before she finally came to her senses. As she walked, she asked in confusion: "Leng Chenming, why are you so secretive? Is there something special about that person?" Her tone revealed an eager desire to know the truth.
Leng Chenming held Jiang Ziluo's hand tightly and comforted her softly, "Don't worry, I will tell you everything when we get to the palace. Now, let's leave here first." There was a hint of alertness in his eyes, as if he was afraid that if they stayed here for a moment longer, others would find out that they were together.
Although Jiang Ziluo was full of questions in his mind, he still nodded obediently, then hurriedly followed Leng Chenming away.
Along the way, Leng Chenming remained highly alert and kept an eye on his surroundings, fearing that he would run into a familiar face. Because he was under house arrest at the moment, if someone found him going out without permission, the consequences would be disastrous.
Finally, the two arrived at the Zhenxi Palace. After entering the gate, Leng Chenming breathed a sigh of relief, as if a huge rock had been lifted from his heart.
Jiang Ziluo couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked eagerly, "You should tell me now! Who is that man? Why is the atmosphere between you so weird?"
Leng Chenming took a deep breath, calmed down his emotions, and slowly replied: "The man who was called King Cheng just now is not from my country Lengli, but King Cheng from Po Lu country."
"Po Lu Country?" Jiang Ziluo was so surprised that his eyes almost popped out, and his mouth opened into a big O shape. "Then why is he here? Is there some unspeakable secret or connection between the two countries?"
Leng Chenming frowned tightly, his expression was extremely serious, as if he could squeeze water out of it. He sighed deeply and said solemnly: "This King Cheng has been coming to our Lengli Kingdom every July and August since many years ago."
"Ah!" Jiang Ziluo exclaimed in surprise, "Then what is he doing here?" She stared at Leng Chenming with wide eyes, her eyes full of curiosity and confusion.
Leng Chenming shook his head, frowning even more tightly, and slowly said, "I don't know the specific reason. I only know that he always acts quietly every time he comes, and few people know his whereabouts."
"Oh?" Jiang Ziluo blinked and asked after thinking for a moment, "Could he be here to spy on our country's intelligence?"
Her face became a little solemn, and she was secretly worried. After all, there has always been a delicate relationship between the two countries. If this is really the case, then things will be troublesome.
"This..." Leng Chenming frowned and fell into deep thought, as if he was recalling something.
After a moment, he slowly said, "I'm not really sure. I just heard some rumors occasionally that he seemed to have some business dealings with our Lengli Country, but I don't know what the specific business is. Perhaps only the ministers in the court know."
