Transcendent Ember

Chapter 524 Meeting an old acquaintance in a foreign land turns out to be an enemy

"Is this the palace of the Xinhua Dynasty?"

Holding a goblet, Zhang Jichuan looked at Fengtian Palace curiously. The layout of this palace is exquisite and the decoration is gorgeous. It is no less than the palace of Gu Yue Kingdom, even some places are even worse.

"It's a pity that such an exquisite palace will be stained with blood soon." Zhang Jichuan felt a little helpless. He realized that he had really clashed with a place like the palace. Every time he went to a palace, something would happen.
In the magnificent hall, people came and went, bustling. Emperor Yi Zhen would only attend at night. Before that, it was time for the guests to socialize.

Those who attend the banquet are either rich or noble, or are industry elites. This is the best opportunity to socialize.

It's a pity that Zhang Jichuan doesn't have social arrogance. With so many elites gathered, he doesn't know who to talk to. Only occasionally when someone who knows him comes over to say hello, he will simply say a few words to the other party. The rest of the time They are all silently observing.

In his front pocket, a tiny camera sent every detail of the banquet to the black crow outside the palace
"Hmph!" Suddenly, a cold snort sounded from behind, followed by a mocking and angry voice, "Zhang Jichuan, it's really embarrassing that you, a mere pariah, can come here. "

Zhang Jichuan turned his head and saw an acquaintance.

Ye Yun, an earl of the Gu Yue Kingdom, a fan of Li Luo, his daughter Ye Ying was one of the noble children who humiliated Chen Yuanyuan back then, and was killed by Zhang Jichuan in the ground.

In addition, there were several unknown messengers, all of whom looked at Zhang Jichuan with resentment.

"Oh." Zhang Jichuan twitched his lips and said with a smile, "So it's Earl Ye Yun. Now that I, Zhang Jichuan, have been deported by Li Luo, I'm no longer from Gu Yue Kingdom. what is the relationship?
"On the contrary, it's you, Earl Ye Yun. I will attend my banquet well. Why do you have to provoke me? After the banquet, the journey back to the country will be long. Earl Ye Yun should be more careful."

The expressions of Ye Yun and his subordinates changed: "You Zhang Jichuan, how dare you!"

"Why don't I dare?" Zhang Jichuan said with a smile, "Earl Ye Yun, think about how your daughter died, and you will know how dare I am."

Ye Yun was anxious, pointing at Zhang Jichuan: "You"

"Don't get angry." Zhang Jichuan slapped him on the shoulder, and said like an old friend, "This is the birthday banquet of His Majesty the Emperor of the Xinhua Dynasty. Earl Ye Yun, you are the envoy of the Ancient Moon Kingdom. With the image of Gu Yueguo, you should bear with it.

"And as long as you don't come to provoke me, I'm not interested in killing you. You are really not worth mentioning in my heart."

The eyes of Ye Yun and his subordinates seemed to be on fire, but they also knew that this was not Gu Yue Kingdom, so they finally endured it and did not have an attack.

Zhang Jichuan showed a satisfied expression, ignored them and turned to leave, but at this moment, another malicious voice sounded:
"The envoy of Gu Yue Kingdom is so pusty? It's so pitiful to be frightened by a few words from a bereaved dog."

Zhang Jichuan, Ye Yun and the others frowned at the same time, looked towards the source of the voice, and saw a young man in a fine attire with an outstanding temperament approaching.

"Qin! Zi! Yu!" Ye Yun shrank his pupils, stared at the person, and asked, "Why are you here?"

Qin Ziyu. Zhang Jichuan looked the person up and down, and said with a sneer, "Qin Ziyu, right? Heh, who is not a lost dog? We are each other."

"Hmph!" Qin Ziyu's face turned cold, and his indifferent eyes swept over Zhang Jichuan, "Who is with you now? I am the envoy of the Hongji Kingdom, and I am here to congratulate His Majesty Yi Zhen on entering year."

"You are actually the envoy of the Hongji Kingdom?" Next to him, the muscles on Ye Yun's face twitched and he said angrily, "Well, Qin Ziyu, you deserve to be killed for daring to betray the country and join the enemy!"

"Treason to the enemy?" Qin Ziyu's eyes fell on Ye Yun, "Earl Ye, as a messenger, you should think clearly before speaking. If Gu Yue has already regarded Hongji as an enemy, after returning, I will immediately Send a letter to Emperor Canghong to send troops to Gu Yue Kingdom."

"You..." Ye Yun's face was startled, deeply shocked.

Zhang Jichuan's pupils also shrank when he heard it. He believed that Qin Ziyu would definitely do such a thing.

Qin Ziyu took refuge in the Hongji Kingdom, isn't he intending to use the power of the Hongji Kingdom to overthrow Li Luo and regain control of the Gu Yue Kingdom? This is already known to all.
"Hmph." Seeing that Ye Yun was too choked to speak, Qin Ziyu looked at Zhang Jichuan again, and said coldly, "Zhang Jichuan, you are really good at destroying all my bargaining chips against Li Luo. I should How do you 'thank' you?"

Zhang Jichuan shrugged, looked at Ye Yun and said, "Earl Ye Yun, did you hear that? He said your daughter is his bargaining chip, aren't you angry?"

The muscles on Ye Yun's face trembled, and he looked at Zhang Jichuan and Qin Ziyu with great resentment, but didn't say a word.

"Don't count on him, he's already scared out of his wits." Qin Ziyu sneered.

Zhang Jichuan spread his hands, and continued to say to Ye Yun: "After Earl Ye Yun returns, remember to ask Li Luo for credit for me. Last time he took credit for my credit. This time Qin Ziyu personally admitted that the people I killed were The bargaining chip used to deal with Li Luo, he can't continue to renege on it, can he?"

"Zhang Jichuan!" Qin Ziyu, who was being ignored one after another, was furious, slightly raised his voice, and said in an extremely cold voice, "You'd better pray that you don't fall into my hands, otherwise I will make sure you don't want to live or die."

"Qin Ziyu, why are you so cruel to me?" Zhang Jichuan didn't ignore him this time, and sneered, "If you have the ability, find someone who uses you.

"Oh, maybe you don't know yet? You and Zhou Yun are pawns in other people's hands.
"Don't rush to refute, listen to me, your 'Shang Yang Fang Sheng' and Zhou Yun's 'Judah's Bag of Silver Coins' are both promotion ceremonies analyzed by my hands.

"The promotion ceremony of 'Shang Yang Fang Sheng' is a unified weight and measure, which happened to be aimed at Zhou Chang who was in charge of the business field at that time; and the promotion ceremony of 'Judah's Bag of Silver Coins' is a betrayal of a mentor and his death, your old man Qin Huaimin And it happens to be Zhou Yun's teacher
"Qin Ziyu, don't you think this is a bit too coincidental?"

Qin Ziyu's face gradually became gloomy following Zhang Jichuan's words, and at the end, his eyes were filled with fierceness, and he suddenly looked at Ye Yun, who was in doubt.

In Qin Ziyu's perception, only Li Luo could use him and Zhou Yun to separate the Qin and Zhou families.

But Zhang Jichuan shook his head: "Don't look at him, Li Luo did not do this. Li Luo's plan is to use certain things to become a sixth-rank extraordinary, and then directly remove you."

Qin Ziyu turned his eyes back to Zhang Jichuan, and his voice seemed to come from the depths of Jiuyou: "Who did it? Tell me!"

"Heh." Zhang Jichuan laughed dumbly, shook his head and said, "Qin Ziyu, is this your attitude when begging for help? Ask me after you have figured out what attitude to use when talking to me."

Qin Ziyu was furious, he had always been concerned about Zhou Yun's betrayal, and suddenly learned that Zhou Yun and himself were being used by others to turn against each other, so he eagerly wanted to know who was behind the scenes.

Seeing that Zhang Jichuan didn't say anything, he stepped forward and grabbed Zhang Jichuan's lapel: "You want to die!"

"Try me?" Zhang Jichuan didn't worry at all, and he didn't fight back, he said with a smile, "I, Zhang Jichuan, am alone and have no desires. Even if I ruin this birthday banquet, I can just walk away. But what about you? Do you dare to act here as the envoy of Hongji Kingdom?"

Qin Ziyu's pupils shrank, and was hit by Zhang Jichuan.

Indeed, he is now the envoy of the Hongji Kingdom. If he breaks the birthday banquet of Emperor Yizhen by doing something in Fengtian Palace, the relationship between the two countries will definitely be affected. At that time, he will be a sinner.

At that time, the trust of Emperor Canghong will be gone. This is the trust he built up in Emperor Canghong's heart with great difficulty with the help of his grandfather.

And once losing the help of Emperor Canghong, it would be a dream to fight back to Gu Yue Kingdom and overthrow Li Luo.

Qin Ziyu was in a dilemma, his pride did not allow him to just let go of Zhang Jichuan who laughed at him.
At the critical moment, a laughing voice full of the majesty of the superior suddenly sounded:

"Several respected guests, what's the matter?"

Yi Kun is here.

Prince Yi Kun, it would have been better if he came later. Ye Yun was deeply regretful. Now that Yi Kun came, there was no way the two of them would have a conflict.

"Your Excellency, good evening." A group of envoys from Gu Yue Kingdom bowed slightly and saluted.

"Good evening, noble envoys." Yi Kun replied, and then his eyes fell on Qin Ziyu's hand, which was holding Zhang Jichuan's lapel.

"You two distinguished guests, what are you doing?" Yi Kun asked as if he didn't understand anything.

"Ha, Your Excellency, it's nothing." Qin Ziyu suddenly burst into laughter, loosened Zhang Jichuan's lapel, and patted it a few times, "I just found some dust on Mr. Zhang Jichuan's lapel, and dusted it off for him."

"Is that so?" Yi Kun suddenly realized, "I thought there was some misunderstanding between the two respected guests."

"How is it possible?" Qin Ziyu said with a smile, "Today is the birthday banquet of Your Majesty's [-]rd anniversary. Even if there is a big misunderstanding, you must smile away your grievances. Your Excellency, what are you talking about?"

"I am very pleased that your envoy understands righteousness so well." Yi Kun held Qin Ziyu's hand, showing great joy.

After the two exchanged a few words of pleasantries, Qin Ziyu found an excuse to leave, Ye Yun and the others also dispersed, leaving only Zhang Jichuan and Yi Kun in their original place.

Only then did Yi Kun look at Zhang Jichuan, and looked him up and down: "Mr. Zhang Jichuan, it's the first time we meet, please give me your advice."
