Chapter 408 Dry Mouth and Tongue
Qin Luoshen made no attempt to hide her feelings for Chen Er: "Chen Er, you really scared me. Zhang Xingchen and Liu Chengdong have already returned, but you haven't. I thought something had happened to you."
After Qin Luoshen finished speaking, she didn't forget to use her small fists to vigorously pound Chen Er's back, but the force was too weak, as if she were giving Chen Er a massage.
"Hey, Madam, come to my room and give me a massage. I'm so tired today." But what puzzled Chen Er was that Qin Luoshen's room door wasn't closed. It was as if it was left open for him. Ma Dazhi and Liu Chengdong were both parched. After swallowing hard, Ma Dazhi spoke first.
"Hey boss, your skills at picking up girls are just too amazing. Can you teach us brothers a thing or two? Besides, we're all getting on in years. You can't be the one eating the meat while we don't even get the soup, right?" Ma Dazhi's words made Chen Er give a helpless bitter smile.
"You two just focus on interrogating him properly. As for Tianci, I'll give you some money. Go out and enjoy yourself."
Chen Er was never stingy with his subordinates. He simply took out a silver coin from his pocket. The two men's eyes lit up when they saw the coin. They thought to themselves that they were glad they had made the right choice.
Because by following Chen Er, they could not only enjoy a high status, but also have endless money. Although Chen Er was a little harsh on them, it was for their own good.
After the two men delivered Tianci to the cage, Chen Er finally left with peace of mind. Chen Er had already entered Qin Luoshen's room, where the woman had prepared a meal. Qin Luoshen was like a beautiful young lady, waiting for Chen Er's affection.
"Chen Er, tell me. Did people hear that the person Ma Dazhi caught was the one who tried to assassinate you on the way? I just heard Ma Dazhi and Liu Chengdong say that you almost didn't make it back." Qin Luoshen spoke her mind.
Chen Er stroked his chin, but he had no intention of deceiving Qin Luoshen. Since the matter had already been decided, even if Chen Er didn't tell Qin Luoshen about his assassination attempt, she would find out the answer through other channels.
Chen Er immediately laughed: "That's right, but this matter has nothing to do with Zhao Tianming. It was someone sent by the Wang family to assassinate me. However, this matter is not easy to handle because the Wang family and Wei Zhongxian have been getting closer in recent years."
Chen Er already considered Qin Luoshen as his woman, so he held nothing back in front of her and revealed all his innermost thoughts.
Qin Luoshen was startled, because she hadn't expected that the Wang family would actually get involved with Wei Zhongxian.
Qin Luoshen looked puzzled: "Chen Er, I feel something is not right, because half a year ago, Wei Zhongxian and the Wang family were at odds."
I remember it was Wei Zhongxian who took more money from the Wang family than usual, much more than other families, which aroused the Wang family's dissatisfaction, and they immediately appealed to the imperial court.
Qin Luoshen immediately recalled what had happened six months ago. At the time, the incident was quite sensational, because any matter involving Wei Zhongxian would become a huge sensation, after all, Wei Zhongxian was a favorite of the emperor.
When that person mentioned Wei Zhongxian, Chen Er immediately smiled without frowning. It was the first time Chen Er had heard that Wei Zhongxian had a conflict with the Wang family. However, after learning the details from Qin Luoshen, Chen Er let out a long roar.
Chen Er immediately grabbed Qin Luoshen's soft hand, and then Chen Er said with ease.
"This is just a superficial tactic by Wei Zhongxian. It's as if Wei Zhongxian is putting it on for the Emperor's benefit. In recent years, Wei Zhongxian's power has grown so much that the Emperor is having trouble sleeping and eating. So Wei Zhongxian dares not get too close to the Wang family anymore."
"So, on the surface, Wei Zhongxian had a conflict with the Wang family, which reassured the emperor. In reality, although they had a conflict on the surface, they were secretly plotting something."
Chen Er had a different view on this matter. Anyone who was even slightly smarter, or who clearly understood Wei Zhongxian's methods, could clearly see that this matter was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.
Whether the Emperor could see it or not, who would know? At this moment, after hearing Chen Er's analysis, Qin Luoshen blinked her beautiful eyes and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
Wei Zhongxian is truly cunning. On the surface, he's feuding fiercely with the Wang family, but secretly he's actually colluding with them. And today, the Wang family even sent assassins to kill Chen Er, something Qin Luoshen absolutely cannot tolerate.
Before long, the two of them had finished their meal and even had a little wine. At this moment, Qin Luoshen's delicate face was a little rosy, looking like a ripe apple, radiating an alluring glow.
"Chen Er, you promised me that you would only be good to one person for the rest of your life. Although I know that this is something you can't do, after all, a man as outstanding as you can't only have one wife like me. But I hope you will never forget me and never be fickle." Qin Luoshen said what was on her mind.
Qin Luoshen had been holding these words in for several days. She hadn't said them because she knew very well that a man like Chen Er, who was righteous and dared to love and hate, and who dared to resist Wei Zhongxian, couldn't possibly only have one woman by his side.
However, Chen Er immediately laughed. He stroked Xiao Mao's soft hair and said firmly.
"Qin Luoshen, don't worry. Of all the women around me, you are the most beautiful in my heart. Moreover, you are a first wife. In the future, please don't keep your worries to yourself. It would break my heart if you did."
Chen Er did not hesitate at all and was able to say what he wanted to say.
Upon hearing Chen Er's words, Qin Luoshen burst into laughter. Just then, footsteps came out again: "Reporting to Your Excellency, Qin Zhongting requests an audience. Should we open the gate now or tomorrow?" Ma Dazhi's voice still carried a hint of displeasure.
