"It turned out to be him?!"
Old Bai and the others were taken aback.
They remembered that Manager Chen had said before that Zhu Wushi, the Iron-Blooded Marquis, was a treacherous villain who pretended to be loyal, and was a sinister person who wanted to usurp the throne.
Think of this.
Everyone looked at him with a hint of disdain.
Zhu Wushi's eyesight was incredibly sharp; with just a glance, he took in Lao Bai and the others' emotions and guessed what they were thinking.
He was inwardly angry.
As a member of the royal family and a prince of the Ming Dynasty, he was not someone that ordinary people could freely judge.
However, he was extremely shrewd, and no matter how dissatisfied he was inside, he didn't show it on his face at all, remaining calm and natural.
"Manager Chen is right. He is indeed a ruthless and powerful figure who never shows his emotions."
Xie Yanke sighed inwardly.
In the backyard.
Chen Yan was leisurely feeding the goldfish in the fish tank when he heard Wanwan's shouts and the heartless exclamation.
A thought struck him: he had told Duan Tianya and the others about Zhu Wushi's true nature, and he had also told Cao Zhengchun about Zhu Wushi's plan to advance by retreating.
At this moment, Zhu Wushi must be seething with hatred for himself.
"Hehe, although he hates me, he also needs my help, so he has to be polite to me. I like to see people hate me but have to bow down to me."
Chen Yan felt a surge of joy.
He put down the small bowl of fish food, slowly washed and dried his hands, and then walked from the backyard to the front.
Lift the door curtain.
Zhu Wushi appeared before Chen Yan with his tall and imposing figure.
Chen Yan admired it in his heart.
As expected of a royal descendant, he is indeed handsome and has a beautiful appearance.

Unfortunately, beneath this facade of loyalty and patriotism lies nothing but intrigue and scheming.
He walked to the chair behind the desk and sat down.
Zhu Wushi also looked at Chen Yan at this moment. He was first stunned by Chen Yan's outstanding appearance and unrestrained temperament. Then, he was even more shocked when he could not detect any true energy fluctuations on Chen Yan's body.
It's astonishing how true the rumors about Master Chen are. No one knows just how powerful Master Chen is; his abilities can only be described as unfathomable.
present.
Putting aside his dissatisfaction with Chen Yan, he took the initiative to clasp his hands in greeting: "I am Zhu Wushi, the Iron-Blooded Marquis, greetings to Immortal Master Chen."
Seeing his politeness, Chen Yan returned the greeting with a cupped-hand salute.
Zhu Wushi took out two silver ingots and placed them on the table, then said, "I would like to ask Master Chen two questions, I wonder if that is possible."
"Of course it can be done, just follow the procedures."
Chen Yan nodded and pointed to the wooden box containing the condition slips of paper next to him.
···Requesting flowers·· ····
Zhu Wushi's eyes twitched twice, and with a nervous heart, he pulled out a slip of paper.
As a member of the royal family, it would be very embarrassing for him to draw a slip of paper with an embarrassing condition.
Fortunately, he was lucky and drew a blank slip of paper.
Seeing this, Zhu Wushi smiled slightly and let out a long sigh of relief.
"Manager Chen's terms are indeed very persuasive; even a ruthless figure like Zhu Wushi is terrified."
Xie Yanke stroked his beard, feeling a mix of emotions.
Wanwan and Wuqing looked disappointed and dejected. They had originally wanted to see Zhu Wushi make a fool of himself by drawing a difficult condition, but now it seemed that their wish had not been fulfilled.
Taking a deep breath, Zhu Wushi asked his first question.
This question was clearly of great importance to him, and even someone as shrewd and calculating as him couldn't help but feel his voice tremble slightly as he spoke.
"Master Chen, my first question is, where are the remaining two Heavenly Fragrance Cardamom seeds?"
Chen Yan was not surprised at all by Zhu Wushi's question; in fact, it was within his expectations.
Zhu was given the answer directly.
Of the remaining two cardamom pods, one is with Cao Zhengchun.
....... .... 0
The other one is in Princess Yunluo's mermaid pearl.
Zhu Wushi was overjoyed to receive the first answer he wanted!
Over the years, he has spent enormous human and material resources, but has not found a single clue about the whereabouts of Tianxiang Doukou.
At this moment, however, he easily got the answer from Chen Yan.
Unconsciously, the hatred in Chen Yan's eyes lessened, and a sense of awe increased.
After bowing gratefully to Chen Yan, he considered his words for a moment and then used his telepathic communication skills to ask his second question.
Old Bai and the others saw that he had asked the question using telepathy.
Everyone knows that the question Zhu is about to ask is of utmost importance.
indeed.
Zhu Wushi's second question was of utmost importance; if it were leaked, the entire Ming Dynasty would be thrown into great turmoil.
"My second question is, Master Chen, if I were to launch a coup right now, could I pull that brat Zhu Houzhao off the throne and sit on it myself?"
After asking the question, Zhu Wushi clenched his fists and stared at Chen Yan without blinking.
There are two things he cares about most in his life.
One of them was the person he cared about most, Su Xin, who was in a coma.
The second thing he cared about most was something else, or rather, a position, a throne.
The dragon throne of the Ming Dynasty emperor!
Over the years, he racked his brains and went through countless hardships in order to obtain Su Xin and to snatch the supreme chair from Zhu Houzhao!
at this time.
As he awaited Chen Yan's answer, his heart pounded, fearing that Chen Yan would shake his head or say the word "no."
Unfortunately, things didn't go as planned.
Chen Yan not only shook his head at him, but also transmitted his voice to him, saying the word "no"!
They gave him a double negative.
"Huh?! How...how could this be?!"
"I've been preparing for this for years, and I'm determined to get that chair. How could I possibly fail!"
Zhu was shocked, desperate, and devastated.
Finally, a critical hit occurs, providing Chen Yan with 3,000 collapse points.
Then, with red eyes, he looked at Chen Yan.
With eyes filled with deep resentment and disbelief, he said, "Master Chen, there is no way I could lose!"
"You...you must have made a mistake!"
Chapter 151 Zhu Wushi Collapses, I Will Die with Unresolved Feelings!
"Did I make a mistake?"
Chen Yan found it funny.
Seeing Zhu Wushi, who was already somewhat deranged, he simply chose to ignore him.
Wanwan, however, stood up to speak in her defense.
"Hey, don't think you're so great just because you're a prince. Our manager never makes a mistake. If you don't believe me, just leave. Don't make trouble for yourself!"
He listened to Wanwan's reprimand.
Zhu Wushi finally snapped out of his shock and disappointment and quickly clasped his hands in apology to Chen Yan.
He said he misspoke because he got excited in the moment.
However, his face was still very pale, and his eyes were full of disbelief and resentment.
After gritting his teeth, he clasped his hands in a fist salute to Chen Yan and then asked in a secret voice transmission: "Master Chen, it's not that I don't believe you, but I'm fully prepared. It's absolutely certain that I will bring that brat Zhu Houzhao down from the throne."
Putting aside everything else, just take the ten generals who control most of the country's military. I have leverage over them all, so they have no choice but to secretly pledge allegiance to me.
With such a massive military force, driving out that brat Zhu Houzhao and seizing the throne would be a piece of cake, wouldn't it?
