Chapter 406: Can I trust you with all my might, old man?

East side of Changan.

A very luxurious mansion.

The words "Wang Fu" written in a dragon-flying and phoenix-dancing style were extremely conspicuous.

Wang Zhong stood inside the main hall, staring straight at the middle-aged man in a cyan robe in front of him.

After a long while, Wang Zhong slowly spoke, "Mr. Chen, can I trust you with all my might?"

Mr. Chen looked indifferent, indescribably calm.

"That is natural!"

"In the current situation, Your Majesty would rather shoulder the infamy of executing the Great Chu captives alone than let the Living Yama bear the infamy; the intention of reusing him behind this is self-evident."

"Looking at it this way, the Living Yama is not just a knife in Your Majesty's hand!"

"Old General Wang, if you want to wash away your shame, relying on yourself alone puts too much pressure on you; you urgently need a strong helper now!"

"I, Chen Qiong, one of the top poisonous strategists in Great Qian, am your most powerful helper!"

Mr. Chen spoke slowly, his confident voice resounding through the great hall.

Wang Zhong took a deep look at Mr. Chen, and after a moment of silence, said, "But the last person who trusted you had his entire family executed, and the grass on his grave is about to grow."

"How can you expect me to trust you?"

"Also, tell me, how exactly did Prince Rong disappear?"

Wang Zhong spoke with a serious face.

He naturally knew this Mr. Chen; he was a major strategist by Prince Rong's side, and Prince Rong held him in high esteem, calling him the number one poisonous strategist of Great Qian.

But the key to the problem was that the person Prince Rong was assisting was gone.

Gao Yang had not even lost a single hair.

Now this person wanted to assist him in dealing with this Living Yama of Great Qian.

It must be said that Wang Zhong was quite panicked.

Upon hearing Wang Zhong's words, Mr. Chen's expression did not change; instead, he sighed and said, "Old General Wang left for Guanzhong, so you do not know."

"At that time, it happened that our Great Qian food competition had entered the finals, and among them was a cook from the Dingguo Prefecture; the head chef of the Imperial Kitchen invited the Prince to go and be a judge, in order to taste the food and curse the Dingguo Prefecture's meals as pig slop!"

"At that time, I tried my best to dissuade him, but the Prince was determined to have his own way!" ===== CHAPTER 408 =====
