Why did Zheng Yuan know about the parliament, and why would he exchange the warrior-level healing medicine that he needed most for the parliament?
That’s right, all of this is the result of Gu Xing’s guidance behind the scenes.
He had originally intended to give Zheng Yuan freedom, but he could also gain a lot of benefits in the process. Zheng Yuan's businessman's way of thinking also made Gu Xing's plan very smooth.
Just by letting out the news to attend the parliament, he was given the warrior-level healing medicine that he had always wanted but was priced at a sky-high price.
This success made Gu Xing very proud of his plan.
However, when he saw Wu Zheng sitting next to Zheng Yuan, Gu Xing realized that his plan was about to go wrong.
Wu Zheng, he couldn't touch him. His younger brother, Wu Hong, was a war lieutenant. Before the Gu family had a strong war lieutenant, he dared not touch Hao Zheng.
In this water fort, the only one who dared to touch Wu Zheng was Jin's father. However, it was obvious that Jin's father was a good man and had no intention of touching Wu Zheng.
Therefore, the current ranking of families is: Jin family at the top, Wu family at the second, Gu family at the third, and then other nobles.
"War Captain!"
The Gu family lacks a war captain!
Ever since Wu Zheng plotted and plotted to kill two of Gu's captains, the Gu family was doomed to decline.
Therefore, it is the right path for the Gu family to give birth to their own war lieutenant!
This is also the reason why Gu Xing is so eager for the healing medicine for this warrior-level person.
With it, and after resolving his hidden injuries, he could be promoted to War Lieutenant. As for the resources to be promoted to War Lieutenant, he might not have had them before, but now...
He glanced at Jin Chen and the other two. Based on his understanding of the system, they definitely had a lot of cultivation resources that they could exchange, and they had more than enough to trade with others.
Although Zheng Yuan is not important anymore, he is still his favorite. However, now, Wu Zheng has set his sights on him and is trying to snatch him away.
This caused huge problems in his original plan.
He doesn't need to wait for the parliament meeting to end, he can come to the conclusion now that Zheng Yuan will be bribed by Wu Zheng!
Gu Xing knew Wu Zheng too well. Before his lord's accident, Wu Zheng was his biggest enemy. After his lord's accident, Wu Zheng became his biggest enemy!
'The person who knows you best is not your friend, but your enemy.'
This statement couldn't be more true here.
"The plan actually overlooked the treacherous Wu Zheng!"
Wu Zheng seemed more respectable and deceptive now. However, one's nature is hard to change, and Gu Xing knew that this Wu Zheng was even more terrifying.
Now, the only one who can deal with Wu Zheng is the head of the Jin family.
So, during the break of the next topic, Gu Xing said, "Master Jin, that person is the mercenary we have, his name is Zheng Yuan."
Father Jin had already seen it, but he pretended not to know. After Gu Xing pointed it out, he looked at Zheng Yuan and Wu Zheng with emphasis.
Why did Wu Zheng contact Zheng Yuan? Simple: for power!
Wu Zheng is optimistic about Zheng Yuan's future and believes that he can be promoted to war lieutenant. In this way, he will have two war lieutenants in his hands, and his power will be closer to him.
Wu Zheng is a resilient, intelligent, and decisive person. When he's defeated, he'll compromise and play the good guy. However, if he gets the chance, he won't let it go.
His goal has never changed, which is to become a lord or have the same power as a lord!
Why? Actually, just like Father Jin, it was all because of the oath he made back then, the ambition to destroy the corpse demons and reclaim the lost territory!
Wu Zheng was different. He was more extreme and more confident. He believed that with his wisdom, the Water Stronghold, under his leadership, could definitely achieve his ambitions faster and better.
Although Jin's father had the same ambition as Wu Zheng, he could willingly assist the lord, the old lord and Gu Qing before he came to power. After he came to power, although he wanted to kill him to avenge his lord, he could tolerate his father's life and even give him certain power because of their common ambition.
However, Wu Zheng is different from Jin's father. He can't stand not having power! Not having the power of a lord!
He had had enough! The Lord's inaction, once was enough.
He wants to control his own destiny, and he wants to use his own hands to fulfill his oath and realize his ambitions.
Since Father Jin had decided to tolerate Wu Zheng, he wouldn't deliberately suppress him! Father Jin believed that Zheng Yuan could grow faster under Wu Zheng's guidance, which would increase his chances of winning in the future.
Furthermore, Father Jin was convinced that the growth rate of Jin Chen and the other two was incomparable to Zheng Yuan and Wu Hong. As time went on, the stronger they became, the more solid his position would become, and the closer he would be to achieving his ideal.
Therefore, Father Jin did not take Gu Xing's attempt to alienate him to heart. He just nodded to indicate that he understood, and then nothing happened!
Gu Xing's skills were still too shallow. Father Jin saw through him immediately. Father Jin had his own plans and naturally wouldn't be fooled. He went to deal with Wu Zheng and act as Gu Xing's pawn.
Wu Zheng and Zheng Yuan were having a pleasant conversation, but they were still paying attention to the reactions of Gu Xing and Jin's father on the podium.
Gu Xing's reaction was actually not important. The main thing was Jin's father's reaction. When Wu Zheng saw Jin's father's reaction, he was truly relieved.
No reaction is the best reaction! Being looked down upon or even ignored?! Doesn't that feel humiliating? Wu Zheng really doesn't!
Being looked down upon? Being ignored? That's the best! This way, he will have time and space to grow.
Although he had predicted Mr. Jin's reaction, it was only his analysis and deduction based on Mr. Jin's personality and the intelligence he had obtained. When he really faced it, there were still many variables.
He couldn't guarantee success 100%! Just like the civil unrest, his plan was so perfect, but in the end it failed because of Gu's secret method of self-destruction.
The explosion caused him to suffer heavy losses and completely lost his chance to become a lord! This is how Father Jin came to power!
Fortunately it was Father Jin. If it was someone else, Wu Zheng’s reaction would have been even more intense!
Just as Father Jin understands him, he also understands Father Jin!
Wu Zheng believed that if his father came to power, he would do a good job. Wu Zheng believed that his father would not touch him. Wu Zheng also believed that when the time came to finally reclaim the lost territory, he would be the one to do it.
Father Jin is just a transition!
This is Wu Zheng’s confidence!
Zheng Yuan looked at Wu Zheng with admiration in his eyes! Wu Zheng was truly knowledgeable, intelligent, had a good personality, was very kind, and so on. All the positive words seemed to be tailor-made for him.
Zheng Yuan believed that Wu Zheng was the savior who could save him from suffering.
Zheng Yuan used to think that in order to trade and become a great businessman, he could give up everything, including personal freedom.
