King of Glory: Catch All the Female Heroes

When Zhang Cheng first arrived in Chang'an, he activated four wishing bottle missions, the second of which was to capture Wu Zetian.

After previous contact with Wu Zetian, Zhang Cheng felt that he might not be able to conquer Wu Zetian because of her superior temperament, and had already planned to give up this mission.

Zhang Cheng never expected that there would be a ray of hope after all the darkness.

This overwhelming wealth can fall directly on your head.

In addition, the favorability of the heroes in Chang'an is about to be maxed out. Among the four beauties in Chang'an, Zhang Cheng is also about to win over Shangguan Wan'er and Yang Yuhuan.

Next, as long as Gongsun Li and Yun Ying are conquered, all four wishing bottle missions in Chang'an will be completed.

Thinking of this, Zhang Cheng gathered his spirits and said to Wu Zetian: "I am a normal man. I have normal thinking. Your Majesty thinks highly of me, so how could I refuse?"

"If I become a prince, I can't guarantee anything else, but I can guarantee that our children can be sent to Jixia Academy for training from a young age."

"Also, if I become the prince of Heluo, within ten years, I will increase Heluo's mechanical skills by at least double the current level."

Zhang Cheng's words made Wu Zetian nod with great satisfaction.

Mechanical technology can enhance the national strength of Heluo. Zhang Cheng sent Wu Zetian's children to the Jixia Academy for training, which solved Wu Zetian's two concerns at once.

"Okay, this matter is settled. Three days later, I will announce this news to the world."

"Zhang Cheng, I'm a little tired today, so I won't keep you here."

Hearing Wu Zetian's words, Zhang Cheng suddenly felt a little disappointed.

Wu Zetian has decided to make me a prince, so can't she let me stay here overnight?

"Your Majesty, how about I stay here today? I can help you relieve your fatigue."

Wu Zetian was a shrewd woman. She saw through Zhang Cheng's intentions at once. She waved her hand at Zhang Cheng without hesitation and said, "What you want to do must wait until the prince is crowned. In addition, to do this kind of thing, you need to choose the right time and use tonics to recuperate your body."

"In short, this is a big deal, and we can't just ignore it and treat it lightly."

Wu Zetian's words made Zhang Cheng feel a little disappointed.

Because he couldn’t get it before, Zhang Cheng didn’t think much about this matter.

Now the meat is at his mouth, but Zhang Cheng can only look at it but not eat it, and he feels a little nervous.

And according to what Wu Zetian said, it would probably take half a year to complete this series of procedures.

Half a year seems a bit long.

Zhang Cheng, feeling a little disappointed, had just left the Daming Palace when he saw Cheng Yaojin coming towards him.

Without waiting for Zhang Cheng to speak, Cheng Yaojin took the lead and said to Zhang Cheng: "Brother Zhang Cheng, I was reckless before and disturbed you and Yunying's work. Today I have a rare free time, I would like to treat you to a simple meal, please don't refuse!"

Hearing Cheng Yaojin's words, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

What do you mean by disturbing me and Yunying's work?

Cheng Yaojin's words can easily cause ambiguity.

You know, there is nothing innocent between Zhang Cheng and Yun Ying.

Cheng Yaojin was the Minister of the Honglu Temple in Heluo. The main responsibility of the Honglu Temple was to protect the economic order of Chang'an. So the Honglu Temple was similar to the current Industrial and Commercial Bureau.

As the boss of the Honglu Temple, there were countless restaurants in Chang'an that wanted to invite Cheng Yaojin as a guest.

It was also because of this that Cheng Yaojin very generously took Zhang Cheng to the best restaurant in Chang'an and sat in the best private room.

After personally pouring a glass of wine for Zhang Cheng, Cheng Yaojin whispered to Zhang Cheng: "Brother Zhang Cheng, we two are strangers. After this drink, I hope we can become good friends."

"Brother Yaojin, you are too polite. I feel like we have been good friends since our first meeting."

Zhang Cheng wants to deal with Yun Ying, so he plans to start with Cheng Yaojin.

Cheng Yaojin had a purpose in inviting Zhang Cheng to a banquet today, so the two of them flattered each other and both enjoyed the meal very much.

After eating and drinking, Cheng Yaojin, who was straightforward in character, said: "Brother Zhang Cheng, I invite you to dinner today for three main purposes."

"First, I want to apologize for my previous recklessness. I almost ruined the big thing between you and Yunying."

"Second, I really want to be friends with you. I only have two hobbies: cooking and making friends. I especially like making friends with people who have abilities."

"Third, I would like to ask Brother Zhang Cheng to do me a favor this time."

Zhang Cheng was slightly cheered up when he heard this.

Zhang Cheng knew that the main purpose of Cheng Yaojin inviting him to dinner today was probably to ask for his help.

Zhang Cheng had a pretty good impression of Cheng Yaojin. If he could help Cheng Yaojin, Zhang Cheng wouldn't mind trying.

"Brother Yaojin, if you need my help with anything, just tell me. As long as I can do it, I will definitely not refuse."

Cheng Yaojin nodded vigorously, and then whispered to Zhang Cheng: "Liu Bei, the lord of Shu, came to Chang'an to cause trouble this time. Her Majesty the Empress will never let him go easily."

"Based on my understanding of Her Majesty, before releasing Liu Bei, she will definitely seize the opportunity and send troops to attack Shu in advance."

"Brother Zhang Cheng, to be honest, I have no longer been involved in the Honglu Temple. I used to be the commander of the Fiery Legion. I want to resume my position and lead the Fiery Legion to invade Shu."

After listening to Cheng Yaojin's words, Zhang Cheng picked up the wine glass, took a sip of wine and asked, "Brother Yaojin, do you want me to persuade Her Majesty the Empress?"

Cheng Yaojin nodded heavily and said, "I made mistakes before, and Her Majesty the Empress wanted to punish me, so she made me work as a civil servant in Chang'an. I won't hide it from you, although the position of the Minister of Honglu Temple is envied by many people, I have never been happy even for a single day while sitting in this position."

"Brother Zhang Cheng, I know from the moment I see you that you are different from Di Renjie and Sikong Zhen. Di Renjie and Sikong Zhen, one only does his job, and the other is afraid of trouble. Although I have a good personal relationship with both of them, they will never help me."

"You are an assistant professor at Jixia Academy, and you have made great contributions in Chang'an this time. I can guarantee with all my heart that your status in front of Her Majesty is definitely not much worse than that of Di Renjie and Sikong Zhen."

"As long as you are willing to help me, I think this time, I have a 70% chance of being reinstated."

"Brother Yaojin trusts me so much, I'll give it a try."

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Cheng Yaojin was overjoyed and quickly put his arm around Zhang Cheng's shoulders.

"Brother Zhang Cheng, I will definitely thank you after this matter is accomplished."
