[Rat cat] Long live the emperor

Chapter 75 I Want To Stay

The atmosphere in the room was awkward and quiet, except for the sound of the night wind blowing through the window screen.

Chengying bowed his head and didn't speak, Zhao Zhen couldn't speak in anger, and Bai Yutang didn't speak, so Zhan Zhao had no choice but to bite the bullet and break the silence, reaching out to poke the angry Zhao Zhen, "When you tell me that Chengying has a problem Before, I didn't notice anything, how did you find out."

Zhao Zhen snorted twice, "I have always trusted Chengying, so I told Chengying the situation as soon as I was hit by [Wenxin] in Zhenguo Temple. It was the first time that I suspected that someone around me I found a traitor, but I never thought that the traitor was Chengying..."

Zhao Zhen was a little disheartened, and it was uncomfortable to be deceived, let alone being deceived by someone he trusted.

"There are not many people who know about the [leading the snake out of the hole] plan, except Kaifeng Mansion who is my secret guard." Zhao Zhen's eyes dimmed, "I don't want to doubt the people around me, but I have to. In order to determine who is the traitor, I give Assessed the new identity of the secret guards, placed them in different departments, assigned important tasks to them, and asked them to keep secrets and not tell anyone."

Zhao Zhen said: "After repeated confirmation, there are no traitors in the hidden guards. This makes me both happy and disappointed. I am happy because I did not trust the wrong person, and disappointed because who would it be if it weren't for them... the leader of the dark guards." Zhao Zhen looked at Chengying, his eyes made Chengying restless.

Chengying said with difficulty, "Just based on this, you have no evidence."

"Yeah, I don't have any evidence." Zhao Zhen sighed shallowly, "You just leaked information at a critical moment to make the person I'm going to deal with wary. You never took the initiative to harm me, so naturally I couldn't get any evidence. So, I deliberately put myself in danger..."

"As soon as we arrived at Changzhou Mansion, Guo Huai chased after us. Where did Guo Huai get the news from? He is better informed than Mr. Bao, who has a correspondence with me. Isn't it ridiculous..." Zhao Zhen wanted to laugh but couldn't help it. Unable to laugh, "Tell me, who informed Guo Huai?"

The mask blocked Chengying's expression, but his clenched hands revealed the panic in his heart.

Zhao Zhen analyzed word by word: "The dark guards just follow me passively, and they can't predict my whereabouts at all. Those who can know my whereabouts in advance must be the ones who know me well. Only three people can do it. Master, Brother Bai, and you..."

Zhan Zhao touched Zhao Zhen's head, and when he came to this conclusion, Zhao Zhen must have been very sad.

Bai Yutang said: "Compared to the loyal Chengying and the simple-minded Maoer, isn't it me who is the most suspicious?"

In fact, Zhao Zhen has never doubted Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang. When he came to this seemingly real world, the only thing Zhao Zhen believed in was Kaifeng Mansion.Because this is the world of the Seven Heroes and the Five Righteousness, Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang are great heroes, Mr. Bao and Mr. Gongsun must be good people, how could they be traitors?Although the character setting has changed beyond recognition, Zhao Zhen still blindly believes...

This kind of blind trust cannot be announced, but Zhao Zhen has other reasons. "The case of misfortune, you two returned to Xingkong Island. During the time you two left, there was only one Chengying by my side. Even though I was very careful, my whereabouts were still leaked, and I still encountered assassination."

Cheng Ying murmured: "So what, it might be leaked by someone else."

"I also hope it is someone else. You are so kind to me, how could it be a traitor? It must not be you." Zhao Zhen looked at him seriously, "Even if there is only a slight possibility, I also hope that it is me who is wrong, in order to prove you Innocence, in order to overthrow my suspicion, I began to alienate you."

Chengying closed his eyes, the mask blocked the expression on his face, but it couldn't stop his deep guilt.

What Zhao Zhen didn't say, he already understood...

Zhao Zhen said slowly: "You know everything around me, one or two leaks are not conspicuous, but when you only know a few things, the chance of leaks increases immediately. To clear the [Living Buddha Temple], I bypassed you and handed it over to the specially screened secret army, and it was successfully completed; I bypassed you and handed it over to the Kaifeng Mansion and the Forbidden Army, and the matter was successfully completed; the private meeting with the King of Xiangyang, I even Brother Bai and the hidden guards have gone around, and the only one who knew I was going back to Shiliting... is you."

"Take away the impossible, and what remains, even if it is unbelievable, is the truth."

Zhao Zhen thought of Sherlock Holmes and Conan, the pupil of Wannian, so he forced a 'happy' smile.

Zhao Zhen said: "Chengying, do you still remember that when the King of Xiangyang was assassinated, I asked you, 'Where did the news about Zhao Jue's advance to Beijing leaked, our side or their side'. You answer me 'Xiangyang The king was stabbed by the servants around him, and they turned out to be traitors'."

Chengying didn't understand, "What's the problem?"

"It's a big problem." Zhao Zhen looked at the ridiculous pig-head mask, "When I saw a middle-aged man, I knew it wasn't him! He felt guilty for Zhao Jue, and he was determined to die. He designed me to reveal the box He wanted Zhao Jue to know the truth, and he wanted to die in Zhao Jue's hands! With such a mind, how could he let his servant assassinate Zhao Jue? How could he leak my meeting with Zhao Jue? What if Zhao Jue died early? If it’s gone, or our meeting is ruined, wouldn’t it be a waste of time for him to fetch water from a bamboo basket?”

"There is only one reasonable reason, the leaker is by my side."

Zhao Zhen laughed sarcasticly, "A fake is a fake after all. Once you start to doubt you, you will have more and more flaws."

Having said that, Zhao Zhen suddenly smiled, "Do you really think I can't catch Meng Ke?"

Cheng Ying was shocked, and looked at Zhao Zhen with disbelief.

Zhao Zhen said: "You have also found out, in order to protect Meng Ke who is full of loopholes, you have missed more and more times. I deliberately did not arrest Meng Ke because he is stupid enough. Such a pig teammate is simply using his whole life Hold you back! As long as I give you the task of getting close to Meng Ke, you will have to deal with him again and again. I deliberately asked you to monitor Yelulan, and Meng Ke really has nothing to fear. He thinks he has you behind him, so he is stupid. Meet Yelulan directly. But he is stupid and you are not stupid. You know there are other hidden guards nearby, and you know that Meng Ke’s matter can’t be hidden no matter what. So you rack your brains and pretend that you don’t recognize Meng Ke. Deliberately telling us half-truths and half-false news, all this is to keep Meng Ke!"

Zhao Zhen jumped out of bed with bare feet, stepping on the cold ground, but couldn't suppress the anger in his heart.

"You are always cautious in doing things. How could you only listen to half of the news and then rush back to report! You left without authorization to deliver news to Meng Ke. You must inform Meng Ke—he is being targeted by the secret guards!" Zhao Zhen was furious, "Chengying, tell me why the dark guard lost Meng Ke, did you help him! For a careless person like Meng Ke, he didn't even notice the little beggar who was lying on the top of the warehouse and eavesdropping. How could he find out? A hidden guard who is proficient in tracking! It's a joke in the world!"

"What's even more ridiculous is that as soon as we made a plan to capture Meng Ke, he immediately became an abandoned child!"

Zhao Zhen blushed with anger, Zhan Zhao carried him back, and stuffed Zhao Zhen, who was trembling all over, into the quilt.

Zhao Zhen seemed to be tired of shouting, half of the flames of anger were extinguished, leaving only laziness and burnout.

"Chengying, you didn't figure it out after all your calculations. Meng Ke will drag Wang Youcai into the water. I asked Brother Bai to stay with you in the post house. You didn't have any time to report the news, so the master found a lot of good friends at Wang Youcai's house. Something. Wang Youcai must be a key person. He hid deeper than you, but was dragged into the water innocently by Meng Ke. You see, I only released one Meng Ke, and caught two big fish. Do you think I made a lot of money? It's..."

Zhao Zhen laughed at herself: "Looking at you and my friend, I will give you a final piece of advice, don't work for the people behind the scenes. You have also seen the ending of many "colleagues" by my side. The people behind the scenes are either crazy or crazy. Sooner or later, you and himself will all be played to death!"

Chengying hesitated and said, "I have nowhere to go..."

"You are young and your martial arts are so good, you can't go anywhere in the world."

Cheng Ying lifted the hem of her clothes, and knelt down in front of Zhao Zhen, "I want to stay."

Zhao Zhen was taken aback.

Zhan Zhao and Bai Yutang didn't expect Cheng Ying to want to stay after losing Zhao Zhen's trust?

Zhao Zhen frowned, "Are you stupid? How nice it is to be alone. You don't have to go through life and death incognito, you don't have to flatter horses and bow your knees, and you don't have to endure unreasonable people like me. At that time, the sea will be as wide as the fish and the sky will be as high as the birds. Once you try With that kind of freedom, you won't be nostalgic for this little friendship now. Don't worry, I won't issue a warrant..."

Cheng Ying just lowered her head, "I want to stay."

Zhao Zhen was a little troubled. He thought he knew Chengying well, but it turns out that he is not so accurate in judging people.

Zhao Zhen stared eagerly at Zhan Zhao. Zhan Zhao was under great pressure from the little apprentice calling for help. He turned his head and stared at Bai Yutang. Bai Yutang was lazily leaning on the chair and yawning gracefully. He only cared about one thing now. ——"When can I sleep?"

Tell the truth!Zhao Zhen didn't want Chengying to return to the people behind the scenes, he didn't want to make Chengying an enemy at all.After all, Chengying knows him too well, once he completely turns against him, the consequences will be unimaginable-the key is that many secrets cannot be kept! (╬ ̄dish ̄)

If it is said that Chengying is killed, Zhao Zhen will not do it.Chengying's delivery of information for the people behind the scenes did create a lot of trouble for Zhao Zhen, but he saved Zhao Zhen several times in times of crisis, and his credit cannot be easily wiped out. It's really hard to say who owes who more...

No matter how long he travels, Zhao Zhen is not used to depriving others of their lives at will. If Chengying dies, Zhao Zhen will definitely be condemned by conscience.Obviously it was Chengying who did something wrong, there is no reason for him to die, but it made the victim obsessed and worried...

Zhao Zhen said: "I gave you a chance, you shouldn't go tonight, let alone open that box."

Cheng Ying bowed her head and said nothing, still in a stubborn style.

Zhao Zhen said helplessly: "If you want to stay, you can never leave again."

Chengying raised her head suddenly, surprise flashed in her eyes, and there was still a trace of hesitation.

"I'll give you one night to think about it for the last time." Zhao Zhen said solemnly, "After the sun rises, you can only have one master, with him but without me, and with me without him. If you choose to stay, just let go of what you know It’s not too late to tell the truth, and it’s not too late to atone. But I must remind you—even if you are determined to atone, I can’t still trust you like before, you have to be mentally prepared.”

Chengying seems to have become the dull gourd when he first met him, kneeling on the ground silently, unable to tell whether it is a living person or a statue.

Zhao Zhen sighed: "You only have one chance, so do it yourself."

Chengying stood up and walked to the door quietly. Before leaving, she seemed to want to say something, but finally walked out without saying anything.Maybe it's too late to say anything now, maybe even he himself doesn't know what to say.Zhao Zhen looked at his back, and the more he looked, the more upset he became.

Zhan Zhao poked the dazed Zhao Zhen, "Don't think about it, go to bed early, do you want me to accompany you?"

Zhao Zhen rushed over to rub and rub, "I'm fine, master, go to bed, Meng Ke has something to do tomorrow."

Bai Yutang stood up and stretched his waist, "You can rest assured about Chengying."

Zhao Zhen pouted, "I'll talk about this later, let me tell you what Chengying did just now?"

Bai Yutang followed Chengying all the way before, and he saw clearly his actions of lighting incense, picking up keys, and entering the warehouse.Originally, this was Zhan Zhao's job, but Bai Yutang felt sorry for his cat and took the initiative to take the thankless job.

Zhao Zhen lay down obediently, and asked Zhan Zhao to cover him with the quilt, covering his mouth with both hands grabbing the corners of the quilt, revealing only his shaggy head, dark eyes, and nose for breathing.Before going to sleep, Zhao Zhen was a well-behaved little bun, and after falling asleep, Zhao Zhen... let's forget about it.

Zhao Zhen grabbed the quilt and muttered, "Chengying has been running around beside me. If he wants to pass the news quickly, someone must help him. I suspected Fuquan at first, so I deliberately mentioned that the key was on Fuquan. Design Chengying Go get the key. But according to what you said just now, Chengying lit Mixiang, which means that he and Fuquan are not on the same side, so who will help Chengying deliver the news? This person is very dangerous..."

Zhao Zhen covered his mouth with the quilt, speaking in a muffled voice, Zhan Zhao reached out and pinched his nose.

"Don't think about it, Chengying will definitely choose you, and the truth will be revealed tomorrow."

Zhao Zhen was surprised, "So sure?"

Zhan Zhao took it for granted, "You confiscated all his property, and only let him wear a pig's head mask. As long as he is not stupid, he will stay!"

Bai Yutang praised the cat unprincipled, "Intelligent, very persuasive!"

Zhao Zhen gritted her teeth at the corner of her mouth—disclosed business secrets and wanted a salary!You are so beautiful!
