Chapter 3129 You are really not dead yet!
Zhu Chengjin said, "Your biggest mistake was showing off all your cards before even leaving this ship!"
At this moment, a voice said coldly: "Oh?"
The sound was very soft, and on this deck already full of people and in the noisy environment, it should not have attracted any attention at all.
But for some reason, when this cold voice sounded, it was like an ice spike piercing the hearts of everyone present. Everyone inexplicably felt a chill rising from the bottom of their hearts, and everyone subconsciously shut their mouths.
Looking up, I saw a tall figure slowly walking up from the stern.
No, not one.
But a group.
They were the group of people who followed Lu Linchuan on the small boat he was on before. Although it was late when everyone got on the boat and it was impossible to see everyone clearly, it was obvious that the people on Lu Linchuan's small boat were all his brothers, who were similar in size to him. Later, when they failed to cross the river and the people from Yangzhou Prefecture attacked their fleet with fireboats, these people's boats were burned and they were forced to abandon their boats and jump into the river. Lu Linchuan took his people on Zhu Chengjin's boat.
Just now, when Nan Yan came out, she also saw them at the stern. Because Zhu Chengjin did not allow anyone to approach him, these people did not dare to come over.
And now, they all stepped onto the bow of the ship. The guards and boatmen who had originally tried to stop them also gathered at the bow, ready to attack Ye Zheng and Nan Yan, and had no defense against these people at all.
But these are nothing.
Even if Lu Linchuan brought his men over, as long as Zhu Chengjin gave an order, the guards and boatmen on the boat could still disperse them. The most important thing was that everyone saw an extremely tall figure with a body as strong as a mountain walking in front.
But it was not their leader Lu Linchuan.
When this man slowly walked out from the deepest night before dawn, everyone present felt an invisible pressure, as if Mount Tai was pressing down on their heads. Their hearts couldn't beat, they couldn't breathe, and even the guards who were closest to Ye Zheng and Nan Yan and were ready to attack them couldn't help but weaken their legs and retreated tremblingly.
Nan Yan opened her eyes wide.
However, there was no trace of surprise in her eyes.
On the contrary, a faint smile and a sense of relief appeared at the corner of his mouth, as if a person who had been wandering for a long time suddenly had the ambition to return home, and when he turned around, he found that his home was right behind him.
Ye Zheng, on the other hand, was not surprised, but when this figure appeared in front of him, his face suddenly turned pale and his pupils contracted sharply.
He gritted his teeth and turned his head to the side, and saw the people standing at the bow, especially Zhu Chengjin, who were stunned at this time.
"you--!"
This one word seemed to be squeezed out of his throat forcibly, but after saying this word, he could no longer utter a word. He just stared with wide eyes, as if in disbelief at the tall figure that was getting closer and closer, and finally, walked to Nan Yan's side.
A warm big hand, with a familiar firmness and a reassuring breath, touched Nan Yan's shoulder.
A low voice also sounded in her ears.
"Are you okay?"
Nan Yan took a deep breath and finally did not lose her composure like the others. But after all, the moment he touched her, she felt like a person who had been suspended in the air for a long time and finally felt grounded.
She said softly, "I'm fine."
The person standing in front of her was none other than Zhu Feng, who, in everyone's eyes and hearts, should have been killed by Ran Xiaoyu. Even now, his body should have rotted away, and even if someone came to look for him, they would only find a pool of corpse water!
He walked out alive and stood in front of everyone.
The moment she saw him, Nan Yan even smiled with relief.
In fact, they had met in the Jinling Palace a long time ago. When she got on the boat just now, she also recognized the figure hiding beside Lu Linchuan. She just didn't expect that Zhu Feng still liked adventure so much and actually hid deep in the enemy camp with such a powerful body.
But the most dangerous place is also the safest place.
He had been hiding like this all the time and had even followed Lu Linchuan and the others onto the boat. Now he walked steadily to Nan Yan's side, and no one discovered him or touched him.
After hearing Nan Yan's three-word answer, he nodded slightly and stopped talking to her. Instead, he stretched out his arms and pulled her behind him, then took a step forward and looked at the thin figure standing on the bow of the boat.
To him, this figure was like meeting someone from another world.
After launching the Jingnan Campaign and attacking the city of Nanjing, he had been looking for his nephew. Over the years, although the country was stable, there was always a small force that was always against him, from Nanjing, to Shazhou Wei, to the Earth Immortal Society in the capital, and then to the civil unrest in the south of the Yangtze River.
If at the beginning he would have thought that it was just a small group of people who were unwilling to lose power or were squeezed out of the center of power after he ascended the throne who were causing chaos, however, wars broke out again and again, even implicated Xu Shizong, and almost led the troops of the Neng Kingdom to capture Peking. Such power and such means are definitely not something that an ordinary person, or an ordinary person in power, can have.
Therefore, even if Zhu Chengjin never showed up, he was gradually seeing things clearly and thoroughly in his heart.
Only those who have been in the highest position and commanded all the powers in the world can have such means and energy.
Therefore, he was certain that the charred corpse found in the Zichen Palace that year was just a decoy. The nephew who was really driven off the throne by him and who held a deep hatred for him had already escaped and started to take revenge.
He said, “Long time no see.”
Zhu Chengjin's eyes turned red.
He gritted his teeth and said, "You, you are really not dead yet!"
Zhu Feng said calmly, "Since you saw that Xu Shifeng was not injured, you should know that Ran Xiaoyu's so-called successful assassination attempt was just a trick. You have used this method before, but you have never forgotten it."
Zhu Chengjin didn't say anything.
It's not that he couldn't speak, but at this moment, he was gritting his teeth so hard that even if you were some distance away from him, you could hear the gnashing sound, as if he wanted to chew the bones of the person in front of him into pieces.
But at this time, he was also a little panicked.
If even Ran Xiaoyu's assassination attempt on him was fake, then how much of everything he thought he knew was true?
When did Zhu Feng become aware of his existence and start making plans?
Thinking of this, he looked up at Zhu Feng: "You, when did you start to know me and doubt me?"
Zhu Feng said calmly, "Jinling, Bamboo Academy."
