Chapter 446 Leading the Team to Merit
Chapter 446 Leading the Team to Merit
The emperor was about to leave after speaking, but Wei Zhongxian gritted his teeth and said...
"Your Majesty, I think it's a bit too strenuous for Minister Zhang to go to the Jiangnan area for flood relief. How about letting Sun Yunhe lead the team to make a name for himself? Sun Yunhe is strong and healthy, and he will definitely complete the task entrusted to him by Your Majesty."
Wei Zhongxian finally found an opportunity to speak.
Wei Zhongxian's idea is good. Although Sun Yunhe was too excited and stood up from the ground, the emperor wanted Sun Yunhe and Chen Er to kill Zhao Tianming together.
However, now, Wei Zhongxian directly exonerated Sun Yunhe and sent him to the Jiangnan Nasi area to replace Zhang Shaoqing in earthquake relief. After all, who wouldn't want such a lucrative opportunity?
Chen Er felt a surge of joy, because he understood that if he wanted to kill Zhao Tianming, Zhao Beixing would definitely send someone to rescue him.
Wei Zhongxian might send someone then, it's hard to say, so early in the morning, Chen Er went to see the emperor.
The two of them discussed it briefly beforehand, which led to the reason for attending the morning court session early today. The emperor had already announced the end of the court session, and no matter how bold Wei Zhongxian was, he could no longer stop the emperor.
At this moment, Chen Er swaggered up to Sun Yunhe and patted Sun Yunhe on the shoulder meaningfully.
"Hey bro, come with me in a bit. Don't worry, you're the boss today, and I'm second-in-command. I'll do whatever you say."
Although Chen Er spoke calmly, he couldn't hide his excitement. The more excited Chen Er became...
Sun Yunhe's teeth were grinding together, and he wished he could smash Chen Er's infuriating face with his fist right now.
Sun Yunhe could only suppress his anger. Moreover, Wei Zhongxian had just suffered a setback with the Emperor. Sun Yunhe thought for a moment.
Sun Yunhe's eyes lit up, and a plan suddenly came to mind: "Hey, Chen Er, how about I listen to you today? You can be my boss, and you can arrange everything. I'll just follow your orders." Sun Yunhe said with a wicked grin.
Chen Er wasn't stupid. Sun Yunhe was using a feigned retreat as a tactic. To put it bluntly, Chen Er wasn't that foolish. Chen Er gave Sun Yunhe a meaningful look.
"Sun Yunhe, alright, let's set off. After we kill Zhao Tianming, we can come back and report."
Chen Er walked out indifferently. He knew very well that he had a heavy mission. After killing Zhao Tianming, he would have to go with Zhang Shaoqing to the Jiangnan area to greet the people.
Of course, this is a pretty good job, and if possible, it's not impossible for Chen Er to take another step forward.
Chen Er's calm demeanor and wicked methods infuriated Sun Yunhe. Sun Yunhe understood that Chen Er was now Wei Zhongxian's most formidable enemy.
Sun Yunhe wished he could find someone to assassinate Chen Er again, but he also knew he didn't know what to do today. Perhaps Zhao Beixing had sent someone to rescue Zhao Tianming, and he would have to turn a blind eye.
After all, Zhao Beixing had already discussed it with Wei Zhongxian, and the martial arts figures he found were even brought in from Wei Zhongxian's side.
The two men went out. The so-called guards with knives were already prepared on the prison cart. Zhao Tianming looked very pitiful. It had only been a few days since they last saw him, but he looked even more haggard. His eyes were devoid of any light.
However, the moment Zhao Tianming, with his hair down, saw Chen Er, a light flashed in his eyes. Chen Er smiled and bowed slightly to Zhao Tianming.
"Zhao Tianming, we will escort you there today. But don't worry, I won't torture you in any way. I assure you of that. Everyone, let's get going."
Chen Er was actually like this, although Zhao Tianming deserved to die, and Zhao Tianming had embezzled so much money from the Ming Dynasty.
"Look, everyone! That corrupt official has finally come out!" At the same time, all the people threw vegetable leaves and other disgusting garbage at Zhao Tianming.
Seeing this, Chen Er felt a little helpless. He immediately made a gesture, and just as he was about to speak, Sun Yunhe spoke up.
“Chen Er, move forward. The people are doing the right thing. Do you want to stop us and not take me seriously? How about we switch places? You can be my leader today.” Sun Yunhe said, still seemingly unwilling to give up.
In fact, Sun Yunhe had already made his own plans. He wanted to switch places with Chen Er at this crucial moment. However, Chen Er completely ignored Sun Yunhe's words and simply bowed slightly to the common people.
"Everyone, don't go too far. Zhao Tianming is old and about to die. Let's just let him go."
Chen Er's words were very calm, which pleased the common people. Although Chen Er had only recently taken office, he had already become a household name after rising from a first-rank official to a second-rank official.
"Hey, you must be Lord Chen Er. Since you've spoken, of course we can't smash it. Lord Chen Er, I hope you can maintain this attitude in the future and do more good things for us common people."
The woman who had just thrown the eggs wanted to give all the eggs in her basket to Chen Er.
However, Chen Er certainly couldn't accept it. After all, it was something that the old lady had bought to throw at Zhao Tianming's head, which was considered unlucky. Chen Er immediately refused.
"Forget it, anyway, I promise that as long as I, Chen Er, am in power, I will definitely do good things for the people. I hope everyone can witness the miracle with me."
After Chen Er finished speaking, the people immediately applauded and cheered, and many young women looked at Chen Er with a strange expression.
To put it bluntly, Chen Er was not only handsome and dashing, but also decisive and efficient, bringing joy to the common people amidst their suffering. Many people saw hope in Chen Er, and it was estimated that the Ming Dynasty was made more vibrant by him. At this moment, Zhao Tianming's gaze towards Chen Er was slightly complicated.
Zhao Tianming hadn't expected that after losing to Chen Er, Chen Er would still speak up for him at this critical juncture. However, Zhao Tianming couldn't let this make him feel no hatred towards Chen Er.
"Chen Er, you are so hypocritical. But you probably won't live much longer. I heard that you have already broken ties with Wei Zhongxian."
