As long as he thought that a plan that he thought was seamless was once again ruined by Han Bing's goddamn little bastard, Zheng Yong couldn't help but be so angry that he secretly vomited blood.

According to his original plan, after Han Bing left Jishi Temple, those Ouchi guards hidden in the temple would immediately launch an attack on Hui Nian and snatch the key from him.

Then, they could quietly withdraw and bring the key back to him while the Xingyuntang killers who were ambushed outside the temple were fighting with Han Bing.

That's why he didn't let those Ouchi guards carry around the big inner waist cards that would reveal their identity. As long as there is no living mouth, the monks of Jishi Temple will not know the identity of the person who attacked Huinian.

When the time came, he could blame the parting arrow and the hermit for everything, and he himself had obtained the vital key.

The reason why that key is so important is that it is directly related to his next plan.

In fact, Zheng Yong's original covetousness for the key was just to explore the secrets of the underworld and see if he could get something that would be helpful to their Zhao father and son's power usurpation.

But sadly, his son Zhao Zhan unfortunately died, which made him completely lose all thoughts.

Driven by the fire of revenge, he had planned to burn all the jade if there was no hope of revenge in the end.

When the time comes, use the key to open the door of the underworld, destroy the pillar that protects the country, and let the northerners get this world from now on, and by the way, destroy all the enemies for themselves.

But the plan to kill the cold ice is about to succeed, so it doesn't matter if the rich country is destroyed or not. In Zheng Yong's eyes, that key has another extremely important function - planting blame.

As long as you order people to hide the key in the Prime Minister's Mansion unknowingly, and then try to let the people sent by the emperor search it out in public.

Plus the portrait of Lin Fangyin in his hands.

The double evidence can not only confirm that Han Bing is a secret spy of the hermit, but also prove that the Leng father and son were instructed by the hermit to conspire to steal the key to Qiankun and want to usurp the country.

By that time, Han Bing should have died in the hands of those people in the Loyalty and Righteousness Alliance, but the emperor would not let Leng Yiqing go, or even the Leng clan.

This is what he Zheng Yong really wants in his heart, tooth for tooth, revenge!

Since their Leng father and son have cut off the incense of the Zhao family, then he will also cut down the roots of the Leng family!

This was indeed a vicious and brilliant plan, and it should be completely inferior to the same vicious and brilliant plan he had devised last time, and even a perfect plan to kill two birds with one stone.

It's a pity that this time, Zheng Yong's fiasco is definitely not as bad as the last time!

Last time, he compensated his baby son Zhao Zhan.

And this time, he not only lost so many henchmen, but also made the emperor almost take his life for this.

At the same time, the more serious consequence is that it also makes Han Bing fully aware of his sinister intentions to seize the key, and may even further suspect his collusion with the northerners.

- That's what he's most afraid of!

With Zheng Yong's understanding of the emperor, he knows that the emperor's biggest heart disease is cold ice, and the biggest rebellion is the hermit, and the emperor is most afraid of the northerners.

Two years ago, a crisis in the north had scared the emperor a lot.

And more than 20 years ago, the Chiyang Sect Master entered the palace to assassinate Duxiaoqiong, which also made the emperor dare not sleep in the Funing Hall for several years. So not long ago, as soon as he heard that Duxiaoqiong appeared near the capital again, the emperor began to fidget again.

This is actually a potential reason why he is eager to let Song Qingfeng fill the gap as the commander of the forbidden army as soon as possible. With the young marshal of the Northern Army who had defeated the northerners to lead the forbidden army and protect the Beijing Division, the emperor would naturally be more at ease.

It is conceivable that once the emperor knows that his chief internal manager is suspected of colluding with the northerners, regardless of whether there is evidence or not, I am afraid that he will not let Zheng Yong stay by his side anymore.

Therefore, whether it is for revenge or self-preservation, Zheng Yong must act as soon as possible and put Zuo Xiang's father and son to death before they can make any moves against him.

After secretly inspecting the emperor's face, Zheng Yong deliberately said cautiously: "Your Majesty, please forgive the old slave for being stupid, there is one thing that the old slave really can't understand.

Your Majesty this time your layout is so thorough, how did that cold ice find out the inside story in advance and think of a way to deal with the Loyalty Alliance?"

Haoxing Xiaoqi suddenly stared at him with some annoyance, and asked angrily: "Are you asking me? There are so many secret agents under you, but as a result, nothing was found out about the other party, but the news in the palace was leaked out." What is the use of raising you useless things?!"

Zheng Yong's small eyes blinked a few times, and he said with a wince: "Your Majesty taught you a lesson! The old slave really deserves to die, and he didn't discipline those slaves under him well." It's just that the old slave thinks that this time the news is leaked, I'm afraid there is another hidden story-"

When Hao Xing Xiaoqi heard this, he couldn't help but say even more angrily: "What is the secret? This Cuihan Pavilion has never even been to the queen, except for these minions inside and outside, who else can find out what I want to do with cold ice?"

"Your Majesty, please take a break from the wrath of the thunder! The old slave has already ordered someone to carefully investigate, and there is indeed nothing suspicious about these minions in the Cuihan Pavilion.

Therefore, the old slave speculated that this news should not have leaked out of the palace, but Han Bing guessed it himself early in the morning.

This son of Zuo Xiang has always been scheming and cunning, and I am afraid that after the Wubi incident, he has already guessed that His Majesty has the intention to get rid of him.

With his wisdom, it must not be difficult to guess that His Majesty would set up an ambush to kill him in Jishi Temple, and even further guessed that His Majesty would use the power of the Loyalty Alliance.

And he should also know that the old slave has always been by His Majesty's side to listen to errands, and it is because he has been keeping an eye on the old slave's every move early in the morning, so he will try to snatch the emperor's secret decree to the Loyalty League from the old slave on the way. ”

Although Zheng Yong still put on a sincere and fearful appearance on the surface, what he said was reasonable and well-founded, and he was not chaotic at all.

However, after listening to his reasonable analysis, the emperor didn't speak for a long time, and the expression on his face was even more strange and difficult to understand. When Zheng Yong saw it, he couldn't help but be stunned, and hurriedly lowered his head, not daring to say more.

What Haoxing Xiaoqi was thinking about at the moment was not the cold ice, but the Zheng Yong in front of him.

Zheng Yong's words sound very reasonable. But it was precisely because he said so much that he aroused Haoxing Xiaoqi's suspicions-

Zheng Yong also said just now that he couldn't understand how Han Bing found out the inside story of this matter. And now, he said conclusively that it was Han Bing who guessed it himself.

It turned out that this old thing was deliberately pretending to be confused, in order to introduce his own ideas into the game he had laid out.

Hmph, look at what tricks he wants to do! A slave, if he doesn't know how to keep his duty as a slave, he doesn't even have to be a slave!

Thinking of this, Haoxing Xiaoqi's eyes flashed with a fierce gleam, but he pretended to be annoyed and said: "If you say this at this time, it is obviously an excuse! If I had thought that Han Bing would have such a means for the Loyalty Alliance, I would have sent those inner guards to do this!"

"Yes, Your Majesty blames you! The old slave really didn't expect Han Bing to be so cunning before, so he didn't dare to say those unfounded words in front of His Majesty. ”

"Then you only say it now, what basis must you have found?" Haoxing Xiaoqi glanced at Zheng Yong coldly.

"The old slave is actually just speculation. The old slave felt that what this cold man did was by no means a simple willful act, but had a clear purpose. And this purpose should be related to his origin. ”

"Origin?" Haoxing Xiaoqi couldn't help but squint his eyes and said in a deep voice, "I also asked Hua Fengshan about this matter, but in fact, he didn't know much about the origin of this cold ice. ”

After a pause, he glanced at Zheng Yong again, and then asked lightly: "What do you think is suspicious about the origin of this cold ice?"
