The male supporting role was captured by the protagonist after his rebirth
Chapter 158 Conspiracy
At the back door of Deng Garden, a black car slowly stopped. The car was parked there quietly, as if waiting for some important person to appear.
Suddenly, the tightly closed back door was opened without warning, and a woman in a gorgeous coat leaned out cautiously, looking around vigilantly at the surrounding environment.
Her eyes were full of tension and anxiety, as if she was worried that something would happen.
After a while, the woman took a deep breath, calmed herself down, then walked lightly to the front of the car and knocked gently on the window.
The back door made a slight click and slowly opened.
Seeing this, the woman hurriedly opened the car door and quickly got in. As the woman got in, the car started again, slowly drove out of Deng Garden, and disappeared into the night in the distance.
The vehicle turned a corner at the end of the road, passed through a dark alley, and finally stopped in front of a villa.
The gate of the villa opened automatically, the car drove into the courtyard and stopped at the gate of the villa. The driver got out of the car and opened the door for the woman, who got out gracefully.
The woman walked into the villa with light steps, as if she knew everything here. She stepped onto the stairs to the second floor with ease, came to the door of the study, and knocked gently.
"Uncle, it's me, Zhu Yunque."
"Come in." A deep voice came from inside the room.
The door of the study slowly opened, and a man in a Mao suit sat at the desk. He was Zhu Zheng. Compared with a year ago, he looked much older, with a few strands of white hair, but his spirit was still as vigorous as before.
Zhu Yunque's heartbeat quickened. She didn't know why Zhu Zheng summoned her this time. She took a deep breath, calmed down, and then walked towards Zhu Zheng and stood quietly in front of him.
"Uncle, I... I'm here." Zhu Yunque's voice trembled slightly, revealing his inner nervousness.
Zhu Zheng raised his head and stared at Zhu Yunque, with a complex emotion flashing in his eyes. He sighed slightly and said softly: "Yuque, you are here."
Then, he pointed to the chair beside him and motioned for Zhu Yunque to sit down. "Sit down. There are some things I need to discuss with you."
Zhu Yunque sat down nervously, clasping her hands tightly together, her palms slightly sweaty. "Uncle, just tell me what's going on." She lowered her head and said.
Zhu Zheng was silent for a moment, then said solemnly, "Yuque, you should know that the main reason I arranged for you to marry Deng Shentong was to effectively control the Deng family. However, a whole year has passed, but the amount of information you have passed back is so little."
At this time, Zhu Yunque raised her head, with a look of panic in her eyes, and she stared straight at Zhu Zheng.
"Uncle, please forgive me. This was not my intention. Deng Shentong has always been wary of me..."
Zhu Zheng waved his hand gently, interrupting her words.
"I certainly understand the difficulties you are facing, but we must speed up our plans now."
Zhu Zheng's expression became extremely serious. "The Deng family holds many secrets that we have no way of knowing. In addition, Deng Shentong's growth rate is really amazing. If we can't see through their every move in time, the consequences that may be caused later will be unimaginable."
The treaty signed between Zhu Zheng and Deng Yuanbo was actually just a false appearance, and its purpose was only to maintain the temporary stability of Blizzard City.
However, Zhu Zheng never stopped the secret cultivation of his own Ipsilon mutant experiment. At the same time, it is conceivable that the Deng family must have taken some actions in private.
As the saying goes, "There is no room for two tigers in one mountain", neither party wants their interests to be divided by others. As Deng Shentong's reputation in Blizzard City grows, the Deng family's ambitions will naturally continue to expand.
If Zhu Zheng is not fully prepared, the Deng family is likely to tear up the agreement and take over at any time.
In the face of absolute strength, so-called power is something that can be easily obtained. Just like Li Changgong in the Northwest Region, he is a perfect example.
During these days, the Deng family has never stopped promoting Deng Shentong's achievements. Obviously, the real intention of the Deng family is to make Deng Shentong the next true "King of the Northwest" rather than willingly waiting for Zhu Zheng to slowly abdicate.
Zhu Yunque bit her lip and said, "Uncle, what should I do?"
Zhu Zheng looked at her deeply, "Let's not talk about this for now. Did you find out what I asked you to check last time?"
Zhu Yunque shook her head. "The flower garden is in Deng Shentong's yard. No one can enter without his permission." She paused for a moment and asked in confusion, "But isn't this just an ordinary garden? Why did you ask me to check this?"
Zhu Zheng frowned: "Ordinary? Do you think someone like Deng Shentong would spend so much energy and money to build a flower garden just to plant flowers?"
Zhu Yunque retorted in confusion: "But uncle, the flowerbed is transparent, and Deng Shentong is indeed planting flowers in it, right?"
"You are still too young. Don't forget what Deng Shentong's special ability is. It's easy for him to let you see anything." Zhu Zheng sighed.
"I'm still a little confused. Why do you suspect that there's something wrong with that flower garden?" Zhu Yunque said without giving up.
Zhu Zheng knocked on the table, his expression becoming serious, and then he said, "I have someone arranged by me to stay at the Deng family. Deng's Technology will take out some materials and funds every month and send them to Deng Shentong to repair and maintain the flower garden for him."
"This is in Blizzard City. It's not difficult for me to get information about the various researches conducted by the Deng family in the research institute." Zhu Zheng crossed his hands and supported his chin. "Tell me, what kind of flower garden needs Deng's technology to intervene? Even if he is Deng Shentong, it's too much of an exaggeration."
Zhu Yunque nodded, "I understand, uncle. But how can we enter the flower garden to investigate?"
"What if I say that I once sent someone to sneak into that flower garden?" Zhu Zheng said suddenly.
"What?" Zhu Yunque stood up suddenly and asked anxiously, "Did you find anything?"
Zhu Zheng waved his hand: "I asked him to disguise himself as one of the gardeners and sneak into the flower garden. After he successfully got in, he sent me a message and then there was no news from him again."
"Deng Shentong killed him?" Zhu Yunque's pupils suddenly shrank. This happened right under her nose. It was too horrifying.
"I don't know. I'm just guessing." Zhu Zheng leaned back in his chair. "But there must be something wrong with that flower garden. The spy must have discovered something, which is why Deng Shentong silenced him."
"When did it happen..." Zhu Yunque touched his chest and said with lingering fear.
That spy disappeared so easily from the world. If one day Deng Shentong realized that he had discovered some secrets of the Deng family, would he also...
"Last month." Zhu Zheng said calmly.
A spy was nothing to him. What he was worried about was that he had alerted the enemy and Deng Shentong would definitely be on guard.
Zhu Zheng pondered for a moment, "You can find an opportunity to get close to Deng Shentong and gain his trust. Or, find a way to get the key to the flower garden. When he leaves Blizzard City for a mission, someone will naturally pick you up to investigate."
Zhu Yunque's heart tightened, "Uncle, this may not be easy. Deng Shentong has always been distant to me, and the key to the flower garden must be in his possession."
Zhu Zheng patted the table and said, "No matter what, we have to give it a try. You are Deng Shentong's wife. If even you can't do it, then I can't do anything. Remember, this is related to the future of our Zhu family!"
Zhu Yunque gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, I'll do my best."
Zhu Zheng looked at Zhu Yunque, "Also, you must pay attention to your safety and never reveal your true purpose. If you find anything, report it to me immediately."
Zhu Yunque nodded and said, "Don't worry, uncle, I know what to do."
Zhu Zheng stood up and patted Zhu Yunque on the shoulder. "Okay, you can go back first. Remember, this matter concerns the future of our family, so you must handle it with caution."
Zhu Yunque walked out of the study with a heavy heart. She knew she had a heavy responsibility, but facing the heavily guarded Deng family, she felt she had no idea where to start.
Uncle thinks too highly of her!
