Xiao Zheng listened to King Ling Lai's narration. Theoretically, it did seem to be the case. But whether Her Majesty did it intentionally or not, she seemed to have neglected the most important issue.
King Ling Lai's opponents were not the Muto family, but the cabinet ministers who increasingly disliked King Ling Lai.
From the perspective of the Muto family, they had to be wary of many factors if they wanted to retaliate and take revenge. But for the entire cabinet, they did not have any leverage in King Ling Lai's hands.
This time, His Majesty Ling Lai fought fiercely and created such an absurd situation. Even the Muteng family would not let this matter go. Not to mention the cabinet.
"Your Majesty — you weren't such an optimistic person before," Xiao Zheng ate a bowl of rice and said meaningfully. "Why did I think of things so simply today?"
When Her Majesty Ling Lai heard this, a slight smile appeared between her eyebrows, "What's your opinion, Boss Xiao?"
"I don't think this is the end." Xiao Zheng sighed. "Whether it's the cabinet members who disagree with you or the Muto family. I believe they won't let it go. "
"But I have leverage in my hands," King Ling Lai said with pursed lips. "It doesn't matter if they accept it or not. They won't be able to cause too much of a commotion. "
"Indeed."
Xiao Zheng nodded and said with a serious expression, "On the surface, they don't have a good reason to vent their anger on you, Your Majesty. But what if they do it in private? "
"I remember someone once said that war is the continuation of politics. Assassination is the sideline of politics, "Xiao Zheng said slowly. "Your Majesty, you have completely angered the cabinet. Aren't you afraid that they will take the risk and take revenge on you? "
King Ling Lai smiled and was not surprised by Xiao Zheng's point of view. "Boss Xiao, don't you understand my strength at all?"
After a short pause, she continued, "Perhaps, in the eyes of your Hua Xia, or perhaps in the eyes of your group of top experts, I am not the only one. I really don't have much of an advantage. But in Tokyo, perhaps no one can threaten my life. "
When Xiao Zheng heard this, he also felt that it was meaningless.
In fact, His Majesty Ling Lai might not have reached the level of a Grandmaster. However, he basically had the strength of an Eight Ultimates. It was even at the top level.
With her identity and status, coupled with her powerful martial arts value, it was impossible for her to escape. Even in the face of countless dangers, she did indeed have the ability to protect herself.
"Even if you have the ability to protect yourself, Your Majesty. But from now on, your situation will become very difficult, "Xiao Zheng said with some concern.
His Majesty Ling Lai smiled and asked back, "Since I chose to sit on the wheelchair and wait for opportunities, has Boss Xiao ever felt that I was safe?"
Xiao Zheng was startled. He smiled bitterly and said, "Indeed."
After lunch, His Majesty Ling Lai personally sent Xiao Zheng out.
Outside the house, the sun was warm and flowers were blooming.
"Boss Xiao. You are busy with official business, so I won't keep you, "His Majesty Ling Lai said with a relaxed smile. "If there is a chance next time, I will personally visit you."
Xiao Zheng pursed his lips and said, "Your Majesty, take care."
"You too." His Majesty Ling Lai shook hands with him gently and watched Xiao Zheng leave.
Until Xiao Zheng completely disappeared from His Majesty Ling Lai's eyes. The maidservant on the side said softly, "Your Majesty, Boss Xiao has gone far away."
"Yes."
His Majesty Ling Lai nodded slightly. His beautiful and charming face became slightly solemn. "It's good that he has gone."
…
Xiao Zheng booked a plane ticket and took a private car to the airport.
He had been homesick these days in Tokyo. He missed his wife and child more and more every day. Of course, Xin Ao was in troubled times, and the pressure from the Zhao family had never stopped. Without him in charge, Xin Ao was worried that Old Lin and Blue Heart would be too tired.
When he arrived at the airport, there was still more than an hour before boarding. Xiao Zheng casually found a place to sit down. He drank mineral water and aimlessly admired the people coming and going.
As an international metropolis, there were all kinds of people in Tokyo Airport. Xiao Zheng felt very unfamiliar with it.
His Majesty Ling Lai was indeed in a difficult situation, but it wasn't something that Xiao Zheng could change on his own. He was just a businessman from Hua Xia. Even though his wealth was not weak, and his personal influence was also there. However, the difficulty that King Ling Lai was facing now came from the cabinet. It was a government agency that controlled Tokyo and even the entire country. It was impossible for Xiao Zheng to go against such a huge group.
Therefore, the only thing he could do was to wait for His Majesty Ling Lai's good news. He also hoped that the cabinet wouldn't take the risk out of desperation.
After all, once the matter was exposed, it would be a very disgraceful thing for the entire Tokyo government. No one would be able to bear this responsibility, right?
No matter what, King Ling Lai was still supported by the Hua Xia government, and he was even widely praised as the Emperor. Who would dare to make a move against King Ling Lai?
It was almost boarding time.
Xiao Zheng took the boarding pass, dragged his luggage, and prepared to board the plane.
Ding ding ding.
He was still on the way when the phone in his pocket rang at an untimely time.
He took out his phone with some difficulty. It was actually a call from Qiu Shou, who was far away in Hua Xia.
The last time they met, Xiao Zheng reminded Qiu Shou not to meet unless it was absolutely necessary. There was no reason for the two of them to meet. After all, they were enemies. Whether it was from Xiao Zheng's or Qiu Shou's point of view. Meeting would inevitably make both sides feel awkward. It might even cause unnecessary conflict.
But it was not a problem to call.
After all, even if they had conflicting views, they were not mortal enemies.
"Hello."
Xiao Zheng adjusted his breathing. He was not in a hurry to board the plane, so he sat aside and answered the phone.
"I heard that Boss Xiao is going back to China?" Qiu Shou's familiar and charming voice came over the phone.
"Yes. I'm about to board the plane, "Xiao Zheng said with great curiosity. "Boss Qiu is really well-informed. She even knows when I will return to China. "
Xiao Zheng did not tell anyone about his return this time, except for talking to Old Lin on the phone. Even his closest subordinates did not know about it. But Qiu Shou could get news about him immediately. It could be seen that she had put in a lot of effort to investigate his whereabouts.
Qiu Shou said in a relaxed tone, "It seems that Boss Xiao does not like me to tip you off at all."
Hearing that, Xiao Zheng's expression changed slightly. "Tip you off?"
Basically, every time Qiu Shou tipped him off, she would reveal extremely important news. It was even related to life and death.
What about this time?
He was in Tokyo, but Qiu Shou couldn't wait to call him.
Xiao Zheng knew that the news that Qiu Shou was about to reveal definitely had something to do with King Ling Lai.
Taking a deep breath, Xiao Zheng continued to ask, "In what way?"
"Of course it has something to do with King Ling Lai," Qiu Shou paused on the other side of the phone and said word by word. "If Boss Xiao doesn't want King Ling Lai to become a short-lived emperor, perhaps he should stay in Tokyo for a few more days."
