Chapter 35: The Cunning Hu Zheqing
"Want to hear the truth or false words that make you happy?" Ye Tianxiang did not rush to answer Zuo Miaoyin's question, but asked with a smile.
"No one wants to listen to lies." Zuo Miaoyin said with a sweet smile.
When laughing, Zuo Miaoyin's eyes looked like two crescent moons.
It seemed that she had guessed Ye Tianxiang's thoughts and knew what the truth Ye Tianxiang would say was like, but she still wanted to hear Ye Tianxiang say it from her mouth with her own ears, and she was also very happy at this moment.
It seemed that at this moment, she had already forgotten the annoyed feeling that she had felt when she heard the arrival of Zhong Haoyang and Hu Zheqing.
"Since you have seen through my heart, I won't say it." Ye Tianxiang smiled mysteriously, and then said, "Let's go, let's meet those two guys."
"Hmph... I'm such a stingy guy, even stingy with nice words." Zuo Miaoyin seemed very unhappy on the surface, but she felt happy in her heart, because in her opinion, Ye Tianxiang agreed to face Zhong Haoyang and Hu Zheqing with her, which was the best answer to her.
...
At this moment, in the living room of the City Lord's Mansion, in addition to Zhong Haoyang and Hu Zheqing, there was another general wearing silver armor who was chatting with them.
This general is the captain of the city lord's mansion, named Liu Guangtao.
"General Liu, I heard that the city lord has recently invited a very powerful artifact founder. I wonder if this matter is true?" Zhong Haoyang, who has a medium figure, round face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, held a glass teacup in his hand, leaned on the back of the chair, crossed his legs, and asked at Liu Guangtao.
Liu Guangtao said truthfully: "I don't know if the casting master is powerful. But I heard from the eldest lady that the probability of producing exquisite equipment when he refining first-level artifact equipment is 100%. Even the city lord looked at him differently and directly handed over the important task of the Zuojia Foundry technical reform to him with full authority."
Zhong Haoyang smiled disdainfully and said, "Even if you dare not speak for me, the probability of producing exquisite equipment when refining first-level equipment is 100%. Miss Zuo must have been deceived by the beautiful lie that guy said."
Liu Guangtao said: "Actually, I don't believe it very much. When a founder refining equipment, the probability of producing exquisite equipment is 100%. However, I personally think that with the ability of the city lord, I should not misunderstand it."
When the two said this, Zuo Miaoyin's slightly angry voice came from outside the door: "Yes, I am indeed deceived by other people's beautiful lies. But I want to tell you clearly that Master Zhong is able to deceive me. I admire you. Unlike some people, they are ignorant, and they are kind and sincere on the surface, but in fact, I don't know how many evil things they have done behind my back to offend the people."
As soon as he heard Zuo Miaoyin's voice sound, Zhong Haoyang immediately put down his teacup, sat upright, pretending that he hadn't heard what Zuo Miaoyin said just now, and smiled and said to Zuo Miaoyin who came into the room: "Miss Zuo, who were you just talking about? If I let me know who the thief you mentioned is, I, Zhong Haoyang, would have asked him to land."
When Zhong Haoyang was talking to Zuo Miaoyin, he stared at Ye Tianxiang who entered the room with Zuo Miaoyin. At this moment, Zuo Miaoyin was holding his arm. He was both jealous and angry. Heavy flames spewed out of his eyes.
Seeing Zuo Miaoyin, Ye Tianxiang came in. Liu Guangtao quickly stood up and said hello to the two: "Hello, Mr. Ye, Miss Zuo."
After Liu Guangtao finished his greetings, he did not stop in the living room. He directly said goodbye to Zhong Haoyang and Hu Zheqing, and then left in a hurry.
After Zuo Miaoyin and Ye Tianxiang entered the house, Zuo Miaoyin ordered the maid to bring Ye Tianxiang a cup of tea better than entertaining Zhong Haoyang and Hu Zheqing. After handing it to Ye Tianxiang, he did not intend to introduce Ye Tianxiang to the two, but asked directly: "I don't know what important things are for the two nobles to come to my Zuo family?"
"Oh, this is the thing. I heard that the Zuo family invited a powerful founder. I wanted to come and see him. I also asked Miss Zuo to enjoy the scenery and help me lead a way to visit that powerful founder." Zhong Haoyang saw that Zuo Miaoyin asked the maid to pour a cup of tea for Ye Tianxiang, which was one level higher than the one who entertained him. Although he was very angry, he still suppressed the dissatisfaction in his heart and directly explained his purpose to Zuo Miaoyin.
Hu Zheqing knew that Zhong Haoyang liked Zuo Miaoyin, and he also knew that Zuo Miaoyin seemed to have a good relationship with Ye Tianxiang, so he deliberately asked the Zuo family to do things for the Zuo family, and revealed it to Zhong Haoyang, so that Zhong Haoyang would arouse the conflict between the two because of jealousy, and anger Zhong Haoyang and attack Ye Tianxiang.
Of course, Zhong Haoyang didn't know that Hu Zheqing was using him.
"I'm sorry, the founder I invited has a strange temper and aloof temperament. I will never see you, a little person with no fame. This time, it seems that you will really disappoint Master Zhong." Zuo Miaoyin turned his head and looked at Ye Tianxiang, smiled strangely, and then said to Zhong Haoyang lukewarmly.
"My master, on Tianbao Star, is a famous figure. He is a star. He looks down on me." Zhong Haoyang snorted coldly, stood up suddenly, looked at Zuo Miaoyin with a little angrily, and said loudly: "Tell me, where does he live? I'll go find him by myself. If he doesn't see me, I will tell him to the ground."
"Hmph... What a big tone, the son of the little city lord is so arrogant. I really don't know that the sky is high and the earth is thick. I am the founder invited by the Zuo family to be the technical support. You don't even look at your bear, and you always speak wildly." Ye Tianxiang snorted coldly, and he didn't even bother to look at Zhong Haoyang. He held the teacup and tasted the deliciousness of the tea.
"He... he is the powerful caster invited by your Zuo family? Haha... I'm so laughing. Is your Zuo family's mind all over? He actually hired such a small person of the God-level envoy to provide technical support!" Although Zhong Haoyang was angry, when he heard that Ye Tianxiang was the caster invited by the Zuo family, he felt both angry and funny for a moment, and he didn't stop talking and said this stupid thing that insulted the Zuo family.
"You are looking for death and you actually insulted me and Zuo's family!" As soon as Zhong Haoyang said that, Zuo Miaoyin angrily grabbed the teacup and smashed it at Zhong Haoyang.
Zhong Haoyang did not expect that Zuo Miaoyin would actually take action. He was unable to react for a moment and was hit by the teacup, with a cup of hot water pouring his favorite robe.
"Okay, you have a habit of fighting with me. This is your home. I will let you go and see." Zhong Haoyang snorted coldly, waved his hand and knocked the teacup on the table beside him out, hit the wall, smashed it, and then looked at Ye Tianxiang like a poisonous snake, and then he went out angrily.
"Master Zhong, wait!" Seeing Zhong Haoyang leaving angrily, Hu Zheqing knew that his purpose had been achieved. He had no reason to leave. He immediately said goodbye to Zuo Miaoyin in the room, then turned his head to look at Ye Tianxiang, smiled maliciously, and then chased Zhong Haoyang who was leaving the door.
"He was angry, but I was sure that Zhong Haoyang would never dare to attack me easily. Instead, he would put all his resentment on you because of what you just said. Are you afraid?" As soon as Hu Zheqing and Zhong Haoyang left, Zuo Miaoyin looked at Ye Tianxiang with some concern and said.
"I don't want to make enemies with anyone, but if someone insists on choosing to go against me, I won't care, but I will do my best and do everything I can to make my enemies disappear from this world one by one."
Ye Tianxiang's tone of speaking was plain, but full of domineeringness.
Zuo Miaoyin's mind was shocked by Ye Tianxiang's seemingly plain but domineering words, and his admiration and admiration for him became even deeper.
Speaking of Zhong Haoyang, after Hu Zheqing left the city lord's mansion, Hu Zheqing said maliciously: "Mr. Zhong, the reason why you lose your composure is that you say the lack of standards and anger Miss Zuo is all blamed for the guy named Ye. If he hadn't said such funny words, you wouldn't have lost composure in front of the middle-aged Miss. Can you really hold back this tone?"
"Of course, I can't let that guy go. But now, he is in the City Lord's Mansion, I can't help but give face to the Zuo family and attack him in front of the Zuo family." Zhong Haoyang took a deep breath and said, "As long as he leaves the City Lord's Mansion, this eldest young master will definitely want him to look good."
After hearing Zhong Haoyang's words, Hu Zheqing knew that his plan was half successful.
Because in his opinion, if Ye Tianxiang killed Zhong Haoyang, the City Lord Zhong in Pingjin City would definitely not give up, and would even lead troops to besiege Ning'an City and force Lord Zuo to hand over Ye Tianxiang.
By then, Ning'an City will inevitably be in chaos, so his "Jinxiutang" will take the opportunity to take advantage of the troubled waters.
If Zhong Haoyang killed Ye Tianxiang, Zuo's family would lose the backer of technical support, and might choose to cooperate with "Jinxiutang" again.
However, Zhong Haoyang, who thought he was very smart, was unable to see through Hu Zheqing's sinister face. In addition, this is Ning'an City, which is not the world of his Zhong family.
Therefore, Zhong Haoyang, who has always been too lazy to think more about problems and is used to handing over everything to his men, actually asked for help from Hu Zheqing, a guy who had dug a huge trap for him, and said, "Brother Hu, I came to Ning'an City secretly this time, and did not let my subordinates follow him. It was inconvenient to do things. You are more familiar with Ning'an City. Can you do me a favor and send about a dozen or twenty people to monitor the whereabouts of that boy near the city lord's mansion?"
"There is no problem with this. You can have fun in Ning'an City with confidence. I will pay for all the expenses. When I find out that the boy has left the city lord's mansion, I will notify you immediately."
"Good brother." Zhong Haoyang smiled and patted Hu Zheqing on the shoulder and said, "I went to the club you took me to play last time. The girls there were so fucking charming and it was fun to play. If you have any news, send someone to find me there."
"Okay, go and have fun. I'll arrange to monitor the city lord's mansion. When everything is arranged, I'll go there to find you."
