The Proof of the Heavens Begins with The Legend of the Condor Heroes

Chapter 158 Meeting Chen Pingping
For time travelers, being familiar with the plot is a great advantage.

But in order to bring out this advantage, we must also demonstrate the strength to match it.

Otherwise, it would be wishful thinking to expect savvy people like Chen Pingping and Lin Ruofu to bow down to you just by a few words.

Just like Fang Hao now, if he wants to convince Chen Pingping, this sinister and vicious old dog, he must also submit his own token of allegiance!

In the west of Kyoto, there is a remote courtyard. Few people know that this is also a safe house under the Supervisory Council.

Used to protect civil and military officials and foreign spies who surrendered to the Censorate.

Now, Fang Hao appeared here with Qin Ye, who was like a dead dog.

"President, you are here." Zhu Ge, the head of the Supervisory Institute outside the safe house, looked at Chen Pingping respectfully.

"So you are the traitor hiding in the Supervisory Commission." Chen Pingping said coldly.

The Supervisory Commission has been in Chen Pingping's hands for nearly twenty years, and has long been run like an iron bucket by him.

However, over the years, some intelligence had always been leaked to the outside world, which made Chen Pingping more and more certain that there must be a traitor in the Supervisory Commission, and the identity of this traitor was not low.

He and Yan Ruohai narrowed down several suspects, and Zhu Ge was the most suspicious one among them.

"We are all working for the Qing Kingdom. How can we call us traitors? Dean, you are too kind." Zhu Ge said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

"All of you are working for the country." Chen Pingping sneered and said, "Is the person inside your new master?"

"My lord is a man of genius. It is my honor to work for him." When talking about Fang Hao, Zhu Ge's respect was obviously from the bottom of his heart.

"I roughly guess who that person is inside." Chen Pingping sighed.

Chen Pingping pushed the wheelchair and was about to enter the house, but Yan Ruohai and Fei Jie, who were following him, were stopped by Zhu Ge.

"The master said that only the dean is allowed to enter." Zhu Ge said.

Before Yan Ruohai could speak, Fei Jie snorted coldly and said, "Zhu Ge, if you want to be a dog, I can't control you. But if you want to stop me today, I have a hundred ways to send you to the west."

"Of course Zhu Ge believes in Mr. Fei's methods." Zhu Ge looked normal, but he did not give in at all.

Fei Jie had a flash of murderous intent. When he was young, he was also a ruthless killer. Thousands of heroes and soldiers from other countries died from the poison he prepared.

It's just that he's old and his temper has become much calmer. But if a poison master gets angry, ten Zhuges are not enough for him to kill in one go.

"Master Fei, please be careful with the arsenic powder in your right hand. Don't touch the strychnine in your left sleeve. Also, Master Fei has quite a collection of bitter alkaline and golden guava."

A gentle male voice suddenly came from the safe house. With every word, the expression on Fei Jie's face became more gloomy.

The man inside knew all the poisons in his hand very well, and his skill in using poison was no less than his.

Fei Jie became more and more curious about who this mysterious criminal was who had captured Qin Ye, the chief envoy of the Privy Council.

"Okay, all of you stay outside. The person inside won't hurt me." Chen Pingping said to a shadow in the dark, "Shadow, you stay too." "Okay!"

In the darkness, a figure wearing a black cloak and a black iron mask suddenly appeared.

This person is the head of the Sixth Department of the Supervisory Council, Chen Pingping's personal bodyguard, and the younger brother of Grand Master Si Gu Jian, Shadow.

Chen Pingping pushed the wheelchair and walked into the safe house slowly. Outside the house, Zhu Ge, Yan Ruohai, Fei Jie and Yingzi were standing opposite each other.

However, the positions of Yan Ruohai and the other two formed a three-way balance, which instantly locked down Zhu Ge on the opposite side. Any movement of the opponent would be met with a thunder-like attack from the three shadows.

Zhu Ge, who was guarding the door, simply closed his eyes and sat down.

He was very confident in that adult's methods, even if the person he wanted to persuade was Dean Chen.

The door was closed. In the dim safe room, with the dim light of the candle, Chen Pingping finally saw the true face of the person opposite him.

Chen Pingping was surprised, but couldn't help saying, "It's really you!"

Sitting opposite Chen Pingping was Fang Hao, whose true face was revealed!
"Oh? How did Dean Chen guess it was mine?" Fang Hao said with a playful smile.

"Everything you do will leave traces."

“Exclude all possible scenarios, and whatever remains, even if it is unlikely, is the truth.”

Chen Pingping said slowly, "Your Highness has been careful enough in his actions, but I know that Your Highness loves delicious food and is very particular about his three meals a day. Unfortunately, there were a few days when he only had one or two meals, which shows that Your Highness was not at home during that time."

The smile on Fang Hao's face gradually faded and he said, "President Chen, please continue."

Chen Pingping said calmly, "According to my investigation, during the days when Your Highness was away from home, the capital was not at peace. Maybe the Hanging Temple was destroyed, or Si Gu Jian came. One or two times may be coincidences, but when all the coincidences come together, it is the truth!"

Looking at Fang Hao who was showing admiration, Chen Pingping said word by word: "Second Prince, that is the one hidden in Kyoto... the fifth master!"

"That's a really brilliant analysis!" Fang Hao couldn't help but clap his hands and laugh, "People eat grains, even martial arts masters are no exception. It's not surprising that Dean Chen used this as a clue and conducted an in-depth investigation and discovered my secret."

Although the Second Prince's Mansion was run by Fang Hao, there was always a fixed number of times when the people in the mansion went out to buy things. As time went by, the Supervisory Office knew Fang Hao's appetite and preferences very well.

It can be seen from this that Chen Pingping, the spy chief, is very cunning and scheming.

"Your Highness is too polite." Chen Pingping said with a fake smile, "Your Highness, you are obviously not trying to praise me today. Is it that simple?"

"President Chen, why do you have to ask questions when you already know the answer?" Fang Hao pointed at Qin Ye and said, "If you want to know the truth about the bloody incident that happened in Taiping Villa seventeen years ago, just ask him."

Fang Hao knew that Chen Pingping had been secretly investigating the truth behind Ye Qingmei's death. The more he investigated, the more coincidences he found.

Ye Qingmei's death was obviously not as simple as imagined. When Ye Qingmei was about to give birth, it was the weakest time in her life.

It happened that at this time, Emperor Qing, Chen Pingping, Fan Jian, Wu Zhu, Ye Chong... were all transferred away from Kyoto for various reasons, which eventually led to Ye Qingmei's death.

It can be said that Ye Qingmei’s death must have been a “divine trap” set up by someone in secret against her!
