Chapter 191 Plot to assassinate
Chapter 191 Plot to assassinate
At three o'clock in the afternoon, in an inconspicuous house in Kunyang City.
The appearance of the house is very simple, without any gorgeous decorations or magnificent buildings.
The walls are a bit mottled, and the traces of time are clearly visible.
The door was closed tightly, as if guarding the secrets within the house.
The houses in the courtyard are also simple, without too many furnishings and decorations.
The room was filled with a faint scent of wood, and the sunlight shone through the window onto the ground, forming patches of light.
Qi Zhendong is holding a meeting here with a dozen people.
A few days ago, they spent some money to successfully infiltrate the Southern Army and arrived in Dingyang smoothly.
When Dingyang was occupied by the Eastern Army, they once again cleverly integrated into the Eastern Army and followed Chu Tiancheng all the way to Kunyang.
After arriving in Kunyang, they quietly left the team, changed into ordinary people's clothes, and hid in this house in groups.
Just like that, more than a dozen grown men stayed in this yard for several days, not even daring to breathe, let alone go out.
They could only stay in the house and observe the situation outside through the window. Every day, they only ate, slept and chatted, and their life was boring and depressing.
Now that the war is finally over, the people are cheering and celebrating the arrival of peace.
However, beneath this seemingly calm surface, a thrilling conspiracy is quietly unfolding.
Qi Zhendong received the secret order from Concubine Qi early in the morning. His face was as gloomy as the sky before a storm.
"Assassinate Chu Tiancheng and Qin Rubing at all costs!"
Concubine Qi's voice seemed to carry a bone-chilling chill as it echoed in Qi Zhendong's ears.
He clenched his fists tightly, and an uncontrollable anger surged in his heart.
"Damn it! They are still alive!" Qi Zhendong said gritting his teeth.
He was loyal to Concubine Qi, but felt extremely resentful about the existence of Chu Tiancheng and Qin Rubing.
In his eyes, these two people were stumbling blocks that blocked his path to power.
Qi Zhendong was fully aware of the importance of this mission and the risks involved, but he did not back down and was determined to complete the mission assigned by Concubine Qi.
He gathered this group of loyal men and carefully planned the assassination.
"Yes! Right now, Chu Tiancheng and Qin Rubing are at the peak of their powers. They have just won a great victory and are extremely powerful. How can we approach them easily?"
One person said worriedly.
"Yes, there must be a lot of people protecting them. The defense is as tight as an iron barrel. We can't find any opportunity to attack."
echoed another.
Everyone nodded in agreement, with expressions of helplessness and anxiety on their faces.
They were fully aware of the difficulty of the task and that it was almost impossible to accomplish.
"What should we do?" someone asked unwillingly.
For a moment, the scene fell into silence, and everyone frowned and thought about the solution.
"Maybe we can start with their weaknesses and find a breakthrough."
Finally, someone made a suggestion.
"Yes, we need to carefully study their personalities, preferences, and daily behaviors to find their flaws."
Everyone began to discuss heatedly, trying to come up with a better solution to deal with this problem.
Chu Tiancheng didn't know that danger was quietly approaching at such a close distance.
He was still immersed in the joy of victory and looked forward to a wonderful life with Qin Rubing after returning to the imperial capital.
However, the gears of fate have begun to turn, and a life-and-death battle is about to begin...
