Chapter 676: Gaining Trust



Jin Zhengmin glanced at Zheng Xuhong, nodded, stood up and walked outside.

With a slight smile, Zheng Xuhong stood up and followed.

However, before he left, he glanced at a place not far away. Standing there was Park Jung-yang's housekeeper.

For some reason, Zheng Xuhong always felt that this housekeeper was strange, and she regretted ignoring him after arriving here. Now it seemed that she had suffered a great loss at the hands of this housekeeper.

Zheng Xuhong raised his hand and called over a subordinate, looking at him and said, "Keep an eye on that housekeeper."

"I understand." The subordinate nodded and looked towards the butler and said.

The butler stood still, head down, seemingly oblivious to the situation. However, he felt somewhat helpless, as his movements were too dramatic and he was eventually discovered.

I have to say that Zheng Xuhong is really capable. He would target me as soon as I made the slightest move.

It seems I have to retreat.

This housekeeper was naturally none other than someone from the Daming General Staff Office, and had been recruited there a long time ago. It had been two years already, otherwise Park Jung-yang's family wouldn't have been infiltrated so deeply.

Okay, now that the job is done, you can enjoy yourself.

The housekeeper had already made up his mind and would find an opportunity to escape soon. According to the benefits offered by the master, he could go to the Ming Dynasty without worries about food and clothing. Not only would he be able to have no worries about food and clothing, but he would also be able to obtain the status of a Ming Dynasty citizen.

Once in Liaodong, he would become a commoner and a good citizen of the Ming Dynasty. In Korea, he couldn't even think about these things, let alone the Ming Dynasty?

It makes me happy just thinking about it.

Zheng Xuhong did not stay for too long. After arranging everything, she left the Park family and went straight to the palace.

In the Korean royal palace.

The King of Korea looked at Zhang Fu who was standing aside. The king and his minister looked at each other in silence, and both of them had very ugly expressions.

Although Zhang Fu repeatedly assured that he had not done these things, the King of Korea remained silent.

Now the issue is no longer whether you have done something or not, but how do you prove that you did not do it?

If there is evidence that you did it, then you have to prove that you didn't do it, otherwise it's you who did it. No one cares too much about the truth of the matter.

At this time, the guards came in from outside and came directly in front of the two men, "Your Majesty, Lord Zheng and Lord Jin are requesting an audience outside the palace gate."

After hearing this, the King of Korea frowned.

What is that old guy Kim Jong-min doing here?

The King of North Korea was not dissatisfied with Zheng Xuhong, but was only dissatisfied with Kim Jong-min.

After a brief pause, the King of North Korea made his decision. He absolutely couldn't let that old man, Kim Jong-min, and Zheng Xuhong come in together. He was completely unprepared and would be easily caught off guard, which would make matters difficult. Anyway, things had come to this point, so there was no need to worry about face.

The King of North Korea said directly: "Let Zheng Xuhong come in first. As for Kim Jong-min, take him down and wait. Make good arrangements and don't neglect him."

"Yes, Your Majesty." The attendant agreed and hurried out.

Not long after, Zheng Xuhong walked in from outside with the box in her hand.

After he walked into the house, he didn't look at Zhang Fu.

Even Zhang Fu looked at him closely, hoping that he would say or do something, even just give a hint.

But Zheng Xuhong still ignored Zhang Fu, not even a glance at him.

Although the truth of the matter is still unknown, Zheng Xuhong knows that things are in trouble.

If this matter is not finally cleared up, Zhang Fu will probably become the center of a vortex, and whoever touches him will be in trouble. Now, whoever gets close to him will get into big trouble.

Zheng Xuhong felt that she was already upset enough and didn't want to get into trouble again. Even if they were from the same party, there was no need to get herself into trouble because of him.

Holding the box in his hand, Zheng Xuhong said, "Your Majesty, this is the evidence I brought back from Master Park Zhengyang's residence. Regarding this evidence, I have something else to report to Your Majesty."

Zheng Xuhong glanced at Zhang Fu and continued, "Master Zhang, please step aside."

After hearing this, Zhang Fu's heart skipped a beat.

I didn't even have to avoid it just now. What on earth are these evidences that I have to avoid them?

It seems that things are really not simple and it will be troublesome.

At this moment, Zhang Fu didn't want to leave. If he left, he would be doomed.

Zhang Fu looked at Zheng Xuhong and said, "Master Zheng, there's nothing you can't tell anyone. Even if it's evidence of my guilt, why can't you tell it to my face? If I'm truly guilty, I'm willing to plead guilty. Let's not gossip in front of the king."

Zheng Xuhong said nothing and turned to look at the King of Korea.

He had just finished speaking and fulfilled his obligations. As for whether the king would let Zhang Fu go, that was his business. If the king did not let Zhang Fu go, the responsibility would not be on him. To put it bluntly, cutting ties with Zhang Fu now was nothing more than a way to pass on the blame.

Under such circumstances, Zheng Xuhong turned around and looked at the King of Korea with an expressionless face.

The King of Korea was in a dilemma.

What should I do about this?

Letting Zhang Fu leave would really break his heart. If he did something to betray him, it would be troublesome. Thinking about things by myself could never be as simple as Zheng Xuhong.
