together.""Mr. Zhou, in a semi-conscious state, barely opened his eyelids and saw Liu Sichun. He spoke with difficulty: 'Liu... Miss Liu, please spare me, help me say a good word... Please...' "Seein...Chapter 291: Chen Tong's Ruthlessness

In the highest-grade Tiānzì Suite of the best inn in the capital city, several people were discussing matters animatedly.

The speaker was a middle-aged man dressed in scholar's robes.

As soon as he spoke, the expressions of the others in the room shifted.

"Brother Wenshan, be cautious with your words."

Another man in silk robes frowned slightly, glancing subconsciously at the tightly shut door. "This is the capital, under the Emperor's feet, not the Western Mountains," he said cautiously. "Be careful, walls have ears."

Wenshan said nonchalantly, "What does it matter about the capital With the current situation, both the Crown Prince and the Chief Minister are trying to win us over."

“Our stance represents the attitude of Xishan Province. If you make us unhappy, we'll side with the other party. Who dares to offend us”

The man who had spoken first said in a low voice, "Before we came, both Master and Young Master warned us that in the capital city, one must not offend anyone. Have you forgotten what Master and Young Master said"

Wenshan then mumbled, "I wasn't trying to say too much because we're all family, you know"

"Speaking of which, to ease the awkwardness, Wen Shan changed the subject: "Jin Rui, it's been several hours since the commander of the Jinyi Guards, Chen Tong, went to the East Palace. Why hasn't the Crown Prince summoned us yet Logically speaking, he should be eager to meet with us."

Jin Rui smiled slightly and said, “Don't worry, perhaps the Crown Prince is now considering what chips he can use to get us to pledge allegiance to him.”

"You never know, he might just show up himself in the next second."

Everyone in the house chuckled softly at that.

Wenshan laughed and said, "If that's really the case, I must meet this crown prince of our Great Qin Empire and see what he's made of..."

Boom!

No sooner had the words left his lips than the tightly shut door was kicked open from the outside.

The sudden change and commotion startled those inside.

Jin Rui stood up first, angrily shouting, "Who! Who is so bold!"

Just then, a large group of Jinyiwei burst in from outside the door. Each man carried an embroidered spring knife and stared at them with hostile expressions.

The Jinyiwei parted, and Chen Tong, dressed in the uniform of a commander, walked in expressionlessly.

Upon seeing Chen Tong, Jin Rui subconsciously froze for a moment. Then, he suppressed the surge of unease in his heart and said with a dry smile, "It's Commander Chen. I didn't expect such a grand reception for me from the Eastern Palace."

Even a fool can see that this is a setup to arrest someone, not invite them.

Jin Rui's implication was to remind Chen Tong that their group wasn't ordinary, and he shouldn't lose his head.

Chen Tong smiled coldly and said, “Welcome To the East Palace”

"Don't even think about going to the East Palace, but you are welcome to visit the Underworld."

After speaking, Chen Tong waved his hand.

Today, all the people who came with him are his trusted confidants, cultivated by him for many years. Their loyalty and tacit understanding need not be said at all.

Only screams of agony could be heard from within the lavish private room, mingled with the stench of blood. A scene of carnage unfolded, with bodies littering the floor in a gruesome array.

That was a bloodbath.

In the midst of corpses, once the proud and arrogant Wen Shan sat listlessly on the ground. The blood flowing from his comrades' bodies soaked his legs, yet he remained oblivious, staring blankly at Chen Tong as if struck dumb.

Chen Tong walked forward with a smile, stepping on the blood pool. He squatted down in front of Wen Shan and patted his face.
