GBP Chapter 473 Important Responsibility
Chapter 473 Important Responsibility
"Otherwise, you will die a terrible death." Zhao Beixing couldn't care less about anything else now. Even if the Emperor were here, Zhao Beixing would still slam his fist on the table and remain furious.
Chen Er immediately smiled. The Emperor looked at Chen Er curiously. The Emperor now hated Zhao Beixing to the core, and Chen Er was destined for a heavy responsibility.
"Your Majesty, what should we do next? Should we release Zhao Beixing or throw him into prison?"
It should be noted that before Zhao Beixing and Qin Zhongting even entered, the Emperor and Chen Er had already made their plans.
That means we have to take action against Zhao Beixing today, no matter what, because if we don't, then this whole thing will be completely pointless.
"Your Majesty, have you ever thought about the contributions I have made to the Ming Dynasty?"
Zhao Beixing was so excited that he sprayed saliva onto the Emperor and Chen Er's cheeks, which made the Emperor and Chen Er very unhappy.
However, the Emperor said again, "Let's leave this matter as it is for now. Who told you to send someone to rescue Zhao Tianming? Let me tell you, just for this, I can directly hold you accountable."
"You are openly defying the imperial court and openly making an enemy of the Ming Dynasty." The emperor's words became increasingly outrageous, hurling several serious accusations that nearly brought Zhao Beixing to tears.
Qin Zhongting realized it was his turn to go on stage, otherwise Zhao Beixing would be in real trouble today, which was not the outcome Qin Zhongting wanted to see.
"Your Majesty, please calm down. The matter is actually very simple. Although Zhao Beixing made a mistake, the worst thing he could have said was what he said. At most, he should be confined for a few months, and that should be enough."
"Furthermore, Zhao Beixing is one of the pillars of the Ming Dynasty. Your Majesty, please consider these issues when you make decisions."
Qin Zhongting's words immediately made the Emperor frown: "Qin Zhongting, what exactly do you mean? Could it be that you also have a great connection with this person?"
The emperor asked with great suspicion, and Qin Zhongting immediately sensed something was wrong. Qin Zhongting hadn't expected the emperor to be so determined to win this time.
If anyone dared to say a good word about Zhao Beixing, the Emperor would direct his anger at that person. This made Qin Zhongting feel uneasy.
"Your Majesty, what are you saying? Although I have a good relationship with Zhao Tianming, I am not so confused as to be that foolish."
"How could I openly defy the rules of the Ming Dynasty? I hope Your Majesty will investigate thoroughly and clear my name."
Qin Zhongting said helplessly.
The Emperor patted Qin Zhongting on the shoulder and said, "Perhaps I'm overthinking things, but as you can see, the Ming Dynasty is far from stable right now. We've reached the most critical moment."
I hope that you veteran generals will open your eyes wide, because I am no longer the timid and cowardly emperor I once was.
"So you should know that if I get angry, the consequences will be severe."
The Emperor's words carried a threatening tone, making Qin Zhongting feel even colder.
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, I will definitely investigate this matter, especially the assassin. I will definitely bring him to justice. Qin Zhongting is currently in a helpless situation."
Qin Zhongting had no choice but to sign a pledge, but to his surprise, the emperor actually agreed.
"Since you're so kind, Qin Zhongting, then I'll leave Wang Tianfei to you. I hope you can find Zhang Tianfei for me in half a month."
"And if you deliver this scoundrel to me, then you'll be credited for leading the team to victory."
Good heavens, Qin Zhongting never expected that he would end up leading the team to merit.
This made Qin Zhongting feel uneasy: "Your Majesty, I cannot explain this matter to you as you would like to. Zhang Tianfei is an assassin."
“I reckon you know your martial arts skills better than anyone else. Such a person is very difficult to deal with, so I hope Your Majesty will not impose a time limit.”
Qin Zhongting wasn't stupid. He had only mentioned Zhang Tianfei in a daze earlier, but things were different now. Whenever Qin Zhongting thought of Zhang Tianfei...
Qin Zhongting felt his body trembling and his throat dry. Therefore, Qin Zhongting did not want the emperor to impose a time limit. Besides, Zhang Tianfei was Wei Zhongxian's man.
Unless absolutely necessary, Qin Zhongting would never allow himself to fall out with Wei Zhongxian; that would be tantamount to courting death.
Therefore, Qin Zhongting had no choice but to plead with the emperor once again, but this time the emperor's attitude was very firm.
"Qin Zhongting, let's stop talking and leave it at that. I hope I can meet Zhang Tianfei in person in half a month."
"If you can't even do this properly, then you'll be punished." The Emperor's words immediately made Qin Zhongting break out in a cold sweat, not knowing what to do.
Qin Zhongting had no choice but to seek help from Chen Er, since he knew that Chen Er had recently become a favorite of the emperor.
If Chen Er could help handle this matter, then Qin Zhongting wouldn't have anything to worry about. Another reason is that Chen Er is currently extremely arrogant.
Chen Er must be removed immediately, so the emperor, left with no other choice, will surely give him a chance.
"Your Majesty, I believe this matter is difficult for one person to accomplish alone, so I hope Your Majesty can assign Chen Er to me, so that the two of us can work together."
"Catching Zhang Tianfei is quite easy." After Qin Zhongting finished speaking, the man with the gun butt seemed to have thought of something and said it again.
"And didn't Zhang Tianfei injure Chen Er? So today we must let the protagonist handle this matter. I wonder if Your Majesty shares the same thought as me?"
After Qin Zhongting finished speaking, he carefully observed the Emperor's reaction, afraid that he might say something wrong.
The Emperor immediately gave a wry smile: "I say, Qin Zhongting, you should handle this matter yourself. Chen Er has other matters to attend to. Chen Er is to be sent down to Jiangnan with Zhang Shaoqing."
"To help farmers get through this difficult time, I will look for other people to assist you."
The Emperor was so shrewd and calculating that he immediately knew what Qin Zhongting was really up to.
If Qin Zhongting manages to drag Chen Er down with him this time, then even if Qin Zhongting fails to complete his mission, the Emperor probably won't do anything to them.
