Chapter 375 Sufficient Reasons
Chapter 375 Sufficient Reasons
"In fact, this woman's father was seriously ill at the time, and she didn't have the money to save his life, so Yang Xiaoqian chose to sell herself on the street, and that's when Zhao Tianming took a liking to her," Zhang Xingchen said, feeling very aggrieved.
Zhang Xingchen's words were somewhat gloomy, and his expression wasn't good either. It's estimated that Zhang Xingchen also has quite a few feelings for this Yang Xiaoqian. Zhang Xingchen's words left Chen Er speechless. Originally, the meaning behind Chen Er's words was very simple: this woman named Yang Xiaoqian was Zhang Xingchen's childhood sweetheart.
If Yang Xiaoqian were to suddenly turn against him for Zhang Xingchen's sake, Zhao Tianming would be in serious trouble.
"Hey bro, why don't you get it right? What I mean is, why don't you talk to Yang Xiaoqian and have her say that Zhao Tianming used underhanded means to make her his concubine? Wouldn't that be a perfectly valid reason?" Chen Er revealed a shriveled smile.
Zhang Xingchen sensed something was wrong and firmly shook her head in refusal.
However, in order to achieve his goal and capture Zhao Tianming, Chen Er had to resort to some underhanded means. Chen Er immediately looked at Zhang Xingchen with a smile.
"Brother, you're thinking the wrong way. You've unknowingly fallen into a dead end. Think about it: if Yang Xiaoqian didn't like you, why would she tell you about Zhao Tianming's secret room?"
Chen Er's words surprised Zhang Xingchen a little.
However, upon closer reflection, Zhang Xingchen realized that this made sense, after all, Yang Xiaoqian was Zhao Tianming's concubine!
If Yang Xiaoqian truly loved Zhao Tianming, she wouldn't have told Zhang Xingchen about the secret room in Zhao Tianming's house. This shows just how meticulous this woman is.
"So, according to your plan, brother, how exactly should we proceed? As long as we can successfully bring Zhao Tianming down, I'm willing to give it a try," Zhang Xingchen said, his eyes lighting up.
Zhang Xingchen had been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. It would be impossible for Zhang Xingchen not to have feelings for Yang Xiaoqian, but he hesitated because of his pride and Zhao Tianming's position.
Therefore, Zhang Xingchen has never been able to snatch Yang Xiaoqian back from Zhao Tianming.
But after Chen Er's analysis today, Zhang Xingchen became a little more confident. Seeing Zhang Xingchen's expression, Chen Er began to explain his plan.
"Brother Zhang, find an opportunity to find Yang Xiaoqian. You'd better use your sweet talk to completely win her over. Once you've made it a done deal, as long as Yang Xiaoqian still has a shred of affection for you, she'll definitely help you turn against him."
Chen Er continued.
Although Zhang Xingchen felt that Chen Er's method was a bit underhanded, that's how it is in the imperial court. To achieve their goals, everyone will stop at nothing. Otherwise, Wei Zhongxian wouldn't have killed so many officials. Wasn't it all for his own wolfish ambitions?
So when Zhang Xingchen thought of this, his fists clenched involuntarily.
"Hey bro, just wait for my good news. I'm going to find Yang Xiaoqian now and make this woman's affair a done deal."
After Zhang Xingchen finished speaking, he was a little embarrassed. He then said goodbye to Chen Er and left without even participating in the banquet.
After seeing Zhang Xingchen off, Chen Er looked at Gouzi, who was kneeling on the ground, as well as Wang Xuelian and the others.
"Dog, if you're willing, you can quit being a thug and take a job by my side. You can learn from Ma Dazhi for now. Also, Wang Xuelian, your husband is dead, and now Wang Dawei has also paid for his death. It's not safe for you to go back to your hometown for now, so stay in Fuyang for the time being."
After Chen Er finished speaking, he turned to leave.
But a clear voice called out, "Lord Chen Er, do you really have amnesia? How could you forget someone like that?"
"Now that Wang Dawei is dead, aren't you afraid that I'll be targeted for revenge?" Chen Er turned around in confusion and saw Zhang Xiu'e standing behind him.
Chen Er then realized that he had been talking to Zhang Xingchen about Zhao Tianming and had forgotten about this woman, so he gave Zhang Xiu'e an awkward smile.
"Is there anything else you need? If it's something I can help with, I will definitely not refuse. Thanks to you today, otherwise we wouldn't have been able to kill Wang Dawei." Chen Er said, feeling quite embarrassed.
Chen Er was extremely grateful to Zhang Xiu'e, and he was a little surprised that Zhang Xiu'e wanted to talk to him about something.
Since this woman had been following Zhang Xingchen all along, and now that Zhang Xingchen had left, Zhang Xiu'e was still in the courtroom. Could it be that she needed help in some way?
When Zhang Xiue saw Chen Er's bewildered expression, she burst out laughing and then shyly said, swaying her hips.
"My lord, I am also homeless. You have kept Gouzi with you, why don't you keep me with you? Besides, I am just a maid, from today onwards I will serve you."
Zhang Xiue's words were truly surprising; they immediately made Chen Er break out in a cold sweat.
Good heavens, Qin Luoshen is still watching from not far away. If Qin Luoshen heard this, she would definitely be jealous. Sure enough, when Chen Er and Qin Luoshen made eye contact...
A chill ran through Qin Luoshen's eyes.
"Chen Er, you're really something else. It's only been a short time. I think you'd better avoid me in the future." After Qin Luoshen finished speaking, she turned to leave. Chen Er was a little helpless and immediately chased after her.
This left Zhang Xiu'e at a loss, while Ma Dazhi, standing beside her, coughed lightly.
"Zhang Xiue, you can stay by my side from now on and help me with things. Anyway, I need a maid." Zhang Xiue rolled her eyes at Ma Dazhi helplessly.
"You should find another girl. I won't serve you. I'll only serve Lord Chen Er for the rest of my life."
After Zhang Xiue finished speaking, she ran off, leaving Ma Dazhi alone. He couldn't help but sigh and mutter a curse to himself.
"I don't know what kind of luck the master had, that he could find so many beautiful girls around him. I, Ma Dazhi, am a little unconvinced."
