Chapter 332: Leaving the capital

Capital, wind and rain drifting.

First, former Chief Grand Secretary Zhang Haiduan was killed, then Eastern Depot Supervisor Wan Yulou was assassinated.

In the entire vast imperial city, one couldn't find a safe place.

In the two-entrance courtyard, Zhang Cheng held a wine pot, his eyes full of flickering expression.

Zhang Haiduan had an accident, Zhang Cheng could think it was because of imperial power, but Wan Yulou, he really didn't know, what was the situation with this guy!

Those world heroes, wouldn't they really think that what the Eastern Depot did was all for themselves?

You have to know, the Eastern Depot is just a chess piece of imperial power!

Only when the Emperor says he wants to mess with someone will the Eastern Depot do it.

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Ding Xiu asked with a full face of confusion: "What are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking, the world recently might be getting chaotic!"

Speaking with a full face of smiles, Zhang Cheng raised his eyebrows.

Because these world people do things without any martial virtue.

Is the loyalty they think of really loyalty?

"You're talking about Wan Yulou's matter? Then I do know some, I heard it was done by someone named Zhao Huaian!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Ding Xiu spoke with a full face of smiles.

"Zhao Huaian? This name sounds a bit familiar!"

Thinking for a long time, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but touch his chin, then turned his head and said: "Who was it!"

"A swordsman with high martial arts!"

Nodding affirmatively, Ding Xiu hesitated for a long time before answering.

And looking at Ding Xiu, Zhang Cheng placed his hand on the blade handle and said: "This explanation of yours is not bad, I like it very much!"

"I think so too!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a full face of smiles, Ding Xiu couldn't help but be happy.

But just the next second, Zhang Cheng pulled out his Embroidered Spring Blade and hacked at Ding Xiu fiercely: "You damn it, you're just picking up the conversation, right?"

"Splash!"

Rolling to dodge, Ding Xiu looked at Zhang Cheng in astonishment: "I kindly explained to you, and you actually took action to hack me!"

"Is this an explanation? Didn't you say nothing at all?"

Looking at Ding Xiu with dissatisfaction, Zhang Cheng then said: "You say, is there any way I can catch Zhao Huaian before others!"

"That's likely impossible, after all, these world people, they come and go without a trace, even if you issue a wanted notice, it's useless!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng with a full face of smiles, Ding Xiu lay on the bed in a mess.

But just as the two were thinking, a carrier pigeon flew over.

Looking at the carrier pigeon, Zhang Cheng took the thing off it, then squinted and said: "Yes, why didn't I think of it? Sure enough, people who act like old sixes are smart!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in confusion, Ding Xiu asked: "You thought of a way?"

"The Commander Assistant asked me to follow the Western Depot people! They should know Zhao Huaian's whereabouts!"

Burning the message, Zhang Cheng picked up the Embroidered Spring Blade and said: "You go watch the Western Depot!"

"Me?"

Pointing at himself, Ding Xiu looked at Zhang Cheng with a full face of confusion: "Are you crazy, those guys in the Western Depot, they don't act like humans!"

"You are also an Embroidered Uniform Guard now, don't forget, imperial authority, execute first and report later!"

Looking at Ding Xiu earnestly, Zhang Cheng began to brainwash him.

"One tael of silver a month, you want me to risk my life? No, at least it has to be three hundred taels!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng seriously, Ding Xiu gritted his teeth.

What kind of people are in the Western Depot? No one knows better than Ding Xiu, after all, he hasn't been mixing in the world for just one day.

Provoke the Embroidered Uniform Guard, you will be wanted at most, and the Eastern Depot generally won't argue with you, but the Western Depot is different; besides holding grudges, they are all a bunch of people who don't act like humans!

"I'll add five taels privately!"

Making a gesture, Zhang Cheng looked at Ding Xiu earnestly.

"Five taels, are you crazy? For these five taels, I go risk my life with the Western Depot? No, at least it has to be three hundred taels!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Ding Xiu looked like he wouldn't go if he didn't get the money, cursing at the "money-adding layman," Zhang Cheng took out three silver notes from his pocket and said: "Give!"

"That's more like it!"

Looking at the numbers on the silver notes, Ding Xiu left happily.

And after Ding Xiu left, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but touch his chin and say: "This won't do! Not doing small things all day, or being busy blindly, I have to climb up, otherwise how can I step by step walk to the highest!"

Arriving not far from the Western Depot, Ding Xiu honestly disguised himself as a beggar.

After all, besides beggars, there was really no way to get close to the Western Depot.

However, just after Ding Xiu arrived here, he unexpectedly saw an acquaintance.

"Junior brother, why are you here too?"

Looking at the man with a face full of dust, Ding Xiu was astonished.

"Didn't I get assigned here?"

Looking at his master brother awkwardly, Jin Yichuan blushed.

"What a coincidence, I am too!"

Looking at Jin Yichuan happily, Ding Xiu said: "How much money did your Battalion Commander give you?"

"Money? What money?"

(Reading)

Looking at Ding Xiu in confusion, Jin Yichuan inquired.

"What? Your Battalion Commander didn't give you money, and let you come over?"

Looking at Jin Yichuan in shock, Ding Xiu was dumbfounded.

"Could it be that your Battalion Commander gave you money?"

Looking at Ding Xiu in disbelief, Jin Yichuan was stunned.

"Three hundred taels!"

Looking at Jin Yichuan earnestly, Ding Xiu revealed a very handsome smile.

And hearing this sentence, Jin Yichuan didn't want to speak at all.

But just then, the Western Depot gate was opened.

Watching the agent in white clothes appear, Ding Xiu hurriedly said: "The big shot is out!"

"That is the big supervisor, Ma Jinliang!"

Looking at the man with a mask on his face, Jin Yichuan hurriedly explained.

"Splash!"

Shaking his cloak, the quite feminine factory flower walked out from the crowd.

Looking at this man, Ding Xiu's first thought was to stay away from him.

Because the opponent is definitely not as simple as he appears!

You have to know, Lu Bing can sit firmly in the position of Embroidered Uniform Guard Commander, that is besides imperial grace, below there are also four great experts: Azure Dragon, Bai Hu, Black Tortoise, and Vermilion Bird.

And Wan Yulou is the same, but he was assassinated by Zhao Huaian.

And Western Depot's Yu Huatian, that is a close minister beside Noble Consort Wan!

"Hmm?"

Glancing at the two beggars on the side of the road, when Yu Huatian rode past, he threw out two copper coins respectively.

But looking at the copper coins piercing the ground, Ding Xiu and Jin Yichuan were speechless.

Because this was seeing through them, and still giving them a warning!

Returning to the two-entrance courtyard, Ding Xiu told what happened today.

Hearing that the Western Depot person was Yu Huatian, Zhang Cheng was stunned.

Because he really didn't expect that there was such a ruthless person behind the Western Depot!

But turning around, Zhang Cheng said: "Damn it, doesn't that mean the Western Xia treasure really exists!"

"What treasure?"

Looking at Zhang Cheng in shock, Ding Xiu also rushed up, looking shocked.

"I'm going to get rich! Do you know? Brother is going to get rich!"

Laughing excitedly, Zhang Cheng raised his hands.

Because he finally knows what it means that heaven doesn't fail those who work hard; he endured humiliation for so long, just for this day!

Blackbeard: People's dreams will not end!

Zhang Cheng: I came to the Great Ming for half a year, not to prove that I am better than others, but I want to say, what I lost, I will definitely take back with my own hands!

Western Xia: That treasure is mine!

Five days later, the "Embroidered Uniform Guard" who

Using the Bai Hu's warrant, Zhang Cheng trailed far behind the Western Depot, for he knew that without this group, he would never find the treasure of Black Water City!
