Speaking of which, Ma Bo is a wonderful person. He became the deputy leader of Qitian Pavilion based on his own strength alone, and his martial arts skills are also extraordinary.
Even though he is now in a semi-retired state, the top management of Qitian Pavilion still has to give Ma Bo some face, and even Long Musi relies heavily on Ma Bo.
Not to mention that Ma Bo also has a son named Ma Zheng. The son inherited his father's business, and Ma Zheng's martial arts were all taught by Ma Bo personally.
In other words, Ma Zheng was not very smart, so Ma Bo pretended to be just an ordinary old man. While deceiving Ma Zheng, he also prevented Ma Zheng from being involved in the dispute over the deputy leader of Qitian Pavilion.
Qingyuan knew that his master had misunderstood his meaning, but he also indirectly understood that Ma had probably guessed his master's intention from the very beginning, so he was deliberately acting it out for him.
After all, Qitian Pavilion is a world-famous intelligence sales agency. If even the deputy leader of Qitian Pavilion does not know the news that Ma Zheng was sentenced to death, it would really be a joke.
He felt deeply about Ma Bo's loyalty at that time, but it turned out that he was being played as a fool.
"Next, when you arrived at King Chang's place, how did you get to Zhenshan Pass?" Xu Tianze gestured for Qingyuan to continue.
After all, letters are limited and can only express a few words, which is far less detailed than a face-to-face conversation.
"After that, Ma Zheng and I went to Shangjing City to ask for an audience with King Chang. King Chang didn't make it difficult for us. The next day, he took Ma Zheng and me to the northwest, and we took secret mountain roads all the way." Qingyuan took the tea handed to him by Xichen and drank it in one gulp.
"Although we wanted to hide our whereabouts, assassins came from nowhere and continued to attack us."
Speaking of this, Qingyuan has to mention Ma Zheng, who is not very smart but has great skills.
At the beginning, the three of them were still at ease, but with wave after wave of assassinations, he and Prince Chang were somewhat exhausted, but Ma Zheng was the only one who was fine.
In the end, they even relied on Ma Zheng's actions to avoid wave after wave of assassinations. Until the end, it was simply Ma Zheng's solo show, and neither he nor King Chang needed to take action.
Xu Tianze nodded. He was not very concerned about the assassination. He was already very clear about Ma Zheng's strength when he returned to the capital from the Divine Doctor Valley.
So he had no interest in this kind of assassination.
Qing Yuan saw that his master was not interested, and suddenly remembered that at the beginning, Ma Zheng seemed to be following his master, so he could understand why his master was not interested.
"After Prince Chang brought his subordinates and Ma Zheng to Zhenshan Pass, he left his subordinates behind and asked them to serve under the Crown Prince. He then left Zhenshan Pass with Ma Zheng and disappeared."
After Qingyuan finished speaking, he stepped aside.
Xu Tianze was thinking about Qingyuan's words. If this was the case, King Chang must have witnessed Ma Zheng's martial arts, so he took Ma Zheng to the enemy country to assassinate him.
After combining the information received from Qitian Pavilion some time ago, that the king of Cangjie Kingdom died suddenly and several princes were beaten to pieces, they immediately knew where Prince Chang and Ma Zheng were.
"Let's go." Xu Tianze stood up, put on his shoes, and prepared to go out.
"Master, where are you going?" Xichen hurriedly took Xu Tianze's coat.
How could he just leave without any hesitation? If he hadn't been standing by the clothes rack, his master would have left in such a disheveled manner.
"If the mountain doesn't come to me, I will go to meet the mountain." Xu Tianze curled his lips slightly. He always had to find something for himself to do.
Otherwise, it would be really boring to waste time here. It would be better to find a place to retire.
Zhenshan Pass, City Lord’s Mansion, and Qiyuan.
"Your Highness, Xu Tianze has been eating and drinking for free since he came here and has done nothing. Have you been deceived?" Huang Zhong's face was full of anger and his words were quite offensive.
When Xu Tianze first arrived, he ignored the hierarchy and entered Zhenshan Pass before the prince. Later, when the prince hosted a banquet, he even left the prince alone in the room.
If he hadn't seen it when he wanted to go to the toilet to sprinkle water after drinking, he really wouldn't have believed that Xu Tianze could be so arrogant.
Now he is just living a life of eating and waiting to die in his mansion. He has never seen any training methods or medicinal baths. In his opinion, this person is just a person who is seeking fame and reputation.
It was because his prince was too kind that he was deceived by such a useless person who only wanted to eat and wait for death.
Seeing Huang Zhong like this, the prince shook his head helplessly. How could this be considered just eating and waiting to die? He was clearly playing a psychological game with Xu Tianze. If he took the initiative to go forward, the initiative would no longer be in his hands.
By the same token, if Xu Tianze came to him first, then the initiative would be in his hands. Now if Huang Zhong goes to cause trouble, it is obvious that the initiative will not be in his hands.
"Your Highness, Xu Tianze requests an audience." Just when the prince didn't know how to explain, a servant came in and reported.
"Please come in." The prince's eyes lit up and he stood up from the stool.
In this way, the initiative is in his hands. If he shows a little goodwill at that time, the subsequent problems will probably be solved by Xu Tianze.
But the prince was not overly excited. He glanced at Huang Zhong, who was still sulking, and warned him, "No matter what you said just now, now that someone is here, be polite."
Huang Zhong was furious when he heard this: "He's just eating and drinking for free in the mansion, not doing anything, and he still wants me to treat him well?"
Xu Tianze stood at the door, the smile on his lips widened, then quickly turned into anger, and he walked in without stopping.
"Since the general thinks so highly of me, I can't say anything." Xu Tianze sneered and looked embarrassed.
"Today, I am here to bid farewell to the Crown Prince. I plan to return to the capital to retire, so as to avoid being an eyesore here." Xu Tianze bowed to the Crown Prince, then turned around and walked outside without waiting for the Crown Prince's answer.
When the prince saw Xu Tianze like this, he knew that Xu Tianze had heard his conversation with Huang Zhong. He glared at Huang Zhong who was standing there with his arms crossed and sneering.
When he turned around, he saw Xu Tianze was about to walk out. He knew that Xu Tianze was not joking, so he quickly walked up to Xu Tianze and stopped him.
"Brother Xu, Brother Xu, we are old acquaintances. There is no need to be so angry, right?"
"Your Highness, what you said sounds nice, but your Highness's man is not as magnanimous as you. What's the matter?" Xu Tianze shook off the prince's hand and ignored the slight anger on his face.
