Outside the Yan family's house, Shang Yao said with a heavy expression, "I didn't expect so many things to happen that year."
Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette against the wind. He couldn't calm down for a long time, "It was indeed unexpected."
That was how cigarettes worked. It was fine if you didn't touch it, but if you smoked it every few days, you would develop the habit of lighting it when something happened. Therefore, gambling and drugs could ruin your life. Xiao Zheng refused to comply …
"It's a pity." Shang Yao tilted her head slightly and glanced at Xiao Zheng. "I thought grandpa could help you solve your doubts. Now it seems that I haven't given you a substantive answer. "
Xiao Zheng shook his head and smiled, "The old man has revealed a lot."
His thoughts were all on this name that suddenly appeared. If there is a day of triumph, it will be me making a comeback.
These two sentences were like a huge stone pressing on Xiao Zheng's heart. Dong Zang's background was mysterious. Even Ye Yuhua and Bai Wuxia couldn't figure out his background. This made Xiao Zheng more certain that Dong Zang must have something to do with what happened that year. Otherwise, why would he stir up trouble as soon as he entered the capital?
Was it just for him?
If that was the case, he could hide behind Kalida and give advice instead of walking on the stage.
To some extent, someone needed him to stand in front of the stage. And through Linghu Duyi to create momentum for him, let him mess up the capital's structure.
"Do you think Dong Zang has something to do with Zhao Changfeng?" Shang Yao was silent for a moment, then suddenly looked up and asked. Her eyes were full of confusion.
Yan Shichang came from that era. What should be said and what shouldn't be said had been told to the two. It might be difficult for him to put down his pride and guess about the younger generation. So Shang Yao couldn't help but ask Xiao Zheng again.
"Maybe, maybe not." Xiao Zheng pursed his lips. "The only thing I can be sure of is that Dong Zang is very dangerous. Whoever touches him will not have a good time. "
"You're saying that Linghu Duyi is just his cannon fodder?" Shang Yao asked in disbelief.
"That old man is not simple." Xiao Zheng narrowed his eyes and said slowly. "It looks like he's supporting Dong Zang, but he can actually keep Dong Zang in check. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to stop Dong Zang. "
"Perhaps they had some sort of agreement," Xiao Zheng concluded.
Shang Yao sighed and said gently, "The situation is getting more and more complicated. This muddy water is very deep. "
Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "It's good that it's deep. The deeper it is, the greater the sense of accomplishment when the truth comes to light. "
Shang Yao smiled and looked at Xiao Zheng. "It seems that Mr Xiao is very confident."
"I'm not confident. I'm just curious." Xiao Zheng spat out a mouthful of smoke and said with a serious look. "If you're so confident, I wouldn't have shamelessly visited your grandfather."
Shang Yao smiled and didn't comment. Then, he changed the topic and asked, "Princess Ling La has succeeded. Maybe in the near future, Dongjing will have another empress. "
At the mention of Princess Ling La, Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "Your old classmate is going to bask in the light."
"The light I can bask in is very limited." Shang Yao smiled. "On the contrary, Mr Xiao — you've contributed both manpower and effort. Princess Ling La will certainly not forget your kindness."
Shang Yao didn't expect Princess Ling La to resolve the internal conflict of the royal family so quickly. He was even worried that she would lose to Crown Prince Tian Xiong. But now it seemed that Princess Ling La not only didn't lose, but had won a complete victory. She became the most powerful woman in the royal family in one fell swoop. In the future, it might not only change the structure of the royal family, but it might even affect the structure of the entire Asia.
The existence of the royal family was a political compromise. There must be a reason for its existence. Otherwise, which person in power would be willing to hang such a symbol on their head?
Look at Hua Xia. As long as there was a chance, she would completely overthrow the feudal dynasty. Not to mention resurrection, she didn't even have a chance to show her face.
Therefore, the royal family was the product of political compromise. On the other hand, the existence of the royal family could also influence politics to a certain extent. And as the most powerful woman in the royal family, how much power did Princess Ling La have in the Dongjing government?
After chatting with Shang Yao for a while, Xiao Zheng was not in a hurry to return to Xin Ao. Instead, he went to the security company led by Shen Manjun.
Mega Gun Houzi had returned to the headquarters of the Mercenary Association. The bodyguard academy was also completed on schedule and officially opened for business. According to Mega Gun's introduction, the first batch of professional bodyguards had been launched. They were being put on the market to test the response.
The company's headquarters was built in a skyscraper on the Second Ring Road. It occupied five floors. There were nearly three hundred administrative employees. For this kind of security company, the initial scale was not small. It was even a little too aggressive.
When he arrived at the company, Shen Manjun was in the middle of a meeting. He didn't disturb her, drinking coffee and reading a magazine in the lounge. He just took it as relaxing.
"Xiao Zheng."
Half an hour later, Shen Manjun's charming and moving voice came from behind. Slightly turning his head, he saw Shen Manjun in a dignified and sexy work outfit. A white shirt with a light gray dress made her look very flirtatious.
Shen Manjun's trademark was her wavy hair. The previous light red was dyed back to flax, and the clean makeup on her face was very attractive. That light purple lip gloss was even more eye-catching.
Even in the company, Shen Manjun didn't completely give up on her appearance. Deep down, she was a beautiful woman who loved beauty.
"You've lost weight." Xiao Zheng looked at Shen Manjun up and down and said softly.
Hearing this, the softest part of Shen Manjun's heart was suddenly hit. A trace of sadness flashed across her radiant face. She gently sat beside Xiao Zheng and said, "Aren't you busy recently? Why do you have time to see me? "
After Xiao Zheng and Lin Huayin moved into Sijiu City and became bigger and bigger, Shen Manjun slowly found her position. She didn't take the initiative to cause trouble for Xiao Zheng.
In the past, she kept competing with Lin Huayin, trying to take advantage of this emotional battle. Now, she only wanted to maintain the status quo, so she slowly put the extra energy into work. She tried to avoid thinking about these powerless problems.
"I've been busy recently. I don't have a good appetite. "Shen Manjun said lightly. She didn't dwell on it.
"The body is the capital of revolution. You can't exhaust your body for work. "Xiao Zheng comforted her. "If there are some troublesome things, you can push them to Black Bear. You just need to be a good helmsman. "
Shen Manjun smiled and said, "You care about me. Or do you dislike your brother? "
Xiao Zheng heard this and glared at Shen Manjun. "When did you learn to sow discord?"
"Haven't I always been like this?" Shen Manjun gently moved closer to Xiao Zheng, her eyes twinkling with a hint of mischief.
Xiao Zheng was stunned. He couldn't help but chuckle and shake his head.
That's right.
Back then in Mingzhu, didn't she always incite me to break up with Old Lin? Be with her?
She even kept comparing my advantages to Old Lin's disadvantages. What a sly old fox.
"Xiao Zheng." Shen Manjun whispered into Xiao Zheng's ear.
"Hmm?" Xiao Zheng felt the heat on his neck and tried his best to control his emotions.
"Can you have dinner with me tonight?" Shen Manjun said softly. "I haven't seen you in a long time …"
