It was true that different people were nurtured in different places.
Among the women that Xiao Zheng knew, even Qiu Shou, who carried a blood feud, could not be as cruel and merciless as King Ling Lai. Everything was done.
This probably had nothing to do with one's nature, but the environment.
Xiao Zheng's years of living overseas had only cultivated his nature of killing people like flies. But when it came to his family, family, and friends, he still had a pure heart.
What about Qiu Shou?
She carried a blood feud and had revenge as her mission since birth. She had also experienced everything that Xiao Zheng had gone through. But as for herself, she was also decisive in killing and had deep schemes. But she still had strong feelings for Chun Sheng and Xia Zhang. She was full of yearning and longing for the life of the Zhao family.
What about King Ling Lai?
She did not have a harmonious childhood like Xiao Zheng. She was also not like Qiu Shou, who at least had a happy family life.
Since she was very young, she lost her mother's love and was harmed by all the family members who looked down on her and wanted to kill her.
Why did she pretend to be a cripple?
Because he was a cripple, he wouldn't receive too much attention.
Because only a cripple could survive in peace.
This was her way of survival and the foundation of her counterattack.
In order to obtain supreme power, in order to have roots, she had given up too much and cut off too much. She could kill her mother to have what she wanted. She could also kill her cousin, Crown Prince Tian Xiong, to have the throne.
Xiao Zheng always thought that his life was too rough and that the road ahead was full of thorns.
But compared to King Ling Lai's road, what were the bumps and sorrows?
On King Ling Lai's road, there were piles of bones and rivers of blood!
She had already walked further and further on this road. No one could ask her to turn back!
If she turned back, there was only death!
When Xiao Zheng sympathized with Muto, how could he not worry about King Ling Lai?
Was it so easy to kill the son of a cabinet minister?
The political bigwigs could turn a blind eye to the internal strife of the royal family. Even if it had nothing to do with him, he would let it go. But if it involved politics, it would hurt his own interests. Who would sit back and do nothing? Stand by and watch?
Xiao Zheng took a sip of the red wine and looked at the beautiful Her Majesty who was dancing with Muto on the stage. Her figure was graceful, but it was as if she was surrounded by a bloody mist. In all directions, ghostly wails and wolf howls could be heard.
"Sigh …"
Xiao Zheng sighed softly and drank the red wine in his glass. He got up and left the banquet.
He knew that His Majesty Ling Lai's performance was over. It could be said that one family was happy, but there were many enemies. But for Dongjing, His Majesty Ling Lai's choice was definitely the best and the most perfect.
Xiao Zheng did not return to the prince's mansion. Instead, he pondered over all the decisions made by King Ling Lai.
Even the overall situation of Tokyo.
Beep beep.
The phone in his pocket woke Xiao Zheng up from his thoughts. He took out his phone and answered the call. It turned out to be Shang Yao.
"Hello. Miss Shang. " Xiao Zheng opened his thin lips slightly, but he was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window in the hotel room, overlooking the sleepless city that was as famous as Yan Jing.
"Didn't I disturb Boss Xiao's rest?" Shang Yao asked politely.
"No." Xiao Zheng shook his head, looking a little down.
His Majesty Ling Lai's scheme upset him, and it was hard for him to lift his mood.
"Has Boss Xiao finished attending His Majesty's birthday banquet?" Shang Yao asked thoughtfully.
"Just returned to the hotel." Xiao Zheng smiled and said curiously. "As an old classmate of His Majesty, why didn't Miss Shang join in the fun?"
Shang Yao said with a wry smile, "I don't want to join in the fun."
"Huh?" Xiao Zheng raised his eyebrows. "Is there any inside story for Miss Shang?"
"It's not inside story. It's just a political struggle. "Shang Yao lowered her voice. "I'm focusing all my energy on Zhao Family. I don't dare to be careless. But Boss Xiao still needs His Majesty's help, so it's not a bad deal to help His Majesty. "
Help?
Xiao Zheng was even more confused.
After a moment of silence, Xiao Zheng asked curiously, "His Majesty didn't ask me to help."
He knew that Shang Yao must know something.
It wasn't strange, Xiao Zheng's contact with Yoto came from His Majesty Ling Lai. If His Majesty Ling Lai didn't want to say, then he would be in the dark.
Shang Family and Yan Family's influence in Yoto was not as simple as old friends. Take Shang Jingtian for example. In the past 20 years or so, he had established a rather large network in Tokyo. And His Majesty Ling Lai was also Shang Jingtian's development goal. It was just that the follow-up resources didn't keep up, so he wasn't as close as Xiao Zheng.
"His Majesty didn't say anything?" Shang Yao was surprised. "Nothing?"
Xiao Zheng's face flashed with bitterness, then he nodded and said, "I just came to participate in the birthday banquet and experience the bearing of the nobles of various countries. Nothing unexpected happened. "
His Majesty Ling Lai borrowing his seed was definitely not within Shang Yao's expectation. Xiao Zheng didn't need to mention it.
Of course, Xiao Zheng really didn't know how to talk about this private matter.
"That's strange …" Shang Yao frowned slightly on the other end of the phone and asked curiously. "Then does His Majesty Ling Lai have a choice?"
"What choice?" Xiao Zheng asked.
"Of course it's his fiancé's choice." Shang Yao smiled bitterly. "Boss Xiao, you're here to ask me for information. Is it necessary to hide everything?"
Xiao Zheng smiled and said awkwardly, "I know. If I'm not wrong, it should be the cabinet minister's son, Muto. "
"It's really her —" Shang Yao squinted and said. "It seems that His Majesty Ling Lai is in a very bad situation."
"Hmm?" Xiao Zheng's expression changed slightly and his heart trembled slightly. "What's going on?"
Shang Yao pursed her lips and said, "It seems that Boss Xiao doesn't care much about the situation in Yoto."
Xiao Zheng rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Xin Ao has a lot of troubles. I really don't have the energy. "
"Father gave me some secret news." Shang Yao said slowly. "If the news is true, then the Yoto government should be very dissatisfied with His Majesty Ling Lai's recent actions."
"What actions?" Xiao Zheng was even more confused.
"Apart from the forced apology at the beginning. All of His Majesty Ling Lai's actions to get close to Hua Xia were regarded as a shame by the Yoto government. "Shang Yao said meaningfully. "I heard that not only the government officials who originally disagreed with His Majesty Ling Lai, but also the original supporters. Even the original supporters are a little bit alienated. She held such a grand birthday party to attract the nobles of various countries to pressure the cabinet and gain benefits. This made the cabinet very dissatisfied. "
"Rumor —"
Shang Yao's cautious voice came from the other end of the phone, "Someone wants to pull the strings behind the scenes to oust His Majesty Ling Lai from the throne!"
