Everyone was silent, and everyone understood what Kim Jong-min meant.
After the victory, it is finally time to divide the benefits. The Ming Dynasty said it well before and will give you enough benefits.
But at this point, with the benefits now within reach, it's not easy to take them away. Even if the emperor of the Ming Dynasty is willing, the people below might not be.
Now that something like this has happened in North Korea, there will definitely be people who will make things difficult for it, and will definitely say that North Korea is not doing its job well and want to deduct some of the benefits.
"This might be an opportunity for us," someone said excitedly. "If we unite this matter, the young faction won't be a threat at all, and Zheng Xuhong will be finished. We can also take advantage of this opportunity to expand things, and then it will be easy."
When the person below said these words, the expression on his face was so excited.
Zhao Chenqi's face looked very ugly.
If this is really the case, then it will be troublesome. The Second Prince's plan will be shattered before it is even implemented.
Looking at these people, Zhao Chenqi felt angry.
What do you know?
You know nothing! You are spouting nonsense here, with only yourselves in your hearts. You are nothing but a bunch of traitors!
Zhao Chenqi wanted to tell them the truth, but he didn't dare. The people present were a mixed bag. Although they all belonged to the same faction, no one knew what they were thinking. It would not be an exaggeration to say that everyone had their own agenda.
In such a situation, if you tell the news to others, it is likely to leak out.
Once the rumor leaked out, it would definitely cause an uproar and completely anger the Ming Dynasty, causing them to turn against him and even investigate who was spreading the rumor. By then, he would be in a passive position.
I can’t say! But there are some things we can start to do urgently.
Zhao Chenqi said, "This is indeed a good thing. I think Lord Fenglin will also be willing to come forward."
Jin Zhengmin looked at Zhao Chenqi with his eyes slightly narrowed.
He felt that Zhao Chenqi's change was a little too fast, and there seemed to be something he didn't know.
However, at this time, Jin Zhengmin did not point it out. He stroked his beard and nodded, saying, "Master Zhao is right. Let's all go and go back to prepare."
Jin Zhengmin glanced at everyone and said again, "Master Zhao can go back now and discuss this matter with the Great Prince to see how to proceed."
Everyone nodded.
After everyone stood up, Jin Zhengmin looked at Zhao Chenqi and said, "Master Zhao, please stay for a moment. I have a few words to say to you."
Everyone took a look and, though a little surprised, wanted to stay. However, looking at Kim Jong-min's expression, it seemed that he didn't intend to keep them. They had no choice but to leave.
"I wonder if Lord Jin has asked me to stay here for something?" Zhao Chenqi said to Jin Zhengmin expressionlessly, his tone neither humble nor arrogant.
"Judging from Lord Zhao's attitude today, it seems like something's up?" Jin Zhengmin stared at Zhao Chenqi and asked, "There's no one here now, why don't you talk to me?"
"Lord Jin, you're overthinking it. I'm fine." Zhao Chenqi raised his head and said with a smile.
"Really? That's good!" Jin Zhengmin nodded and said, "Since there's nothing else, I won't keep Master Zhao here. Master Zhao, please come in."
"Yes, I'll take my leave." Zhao Chenqi agreed, turned around and walked out.
Kim Jong-min narrowed his eyes slightly.
He didn't think that there was really nothing going on just because of Zhao Chenqi's denial.
In fact, he is now more certain that there is something going on here.
Zhao Chenqi left Jin Zhengmin's house and went directly to Prince Fenglin's house without delay.
Lord Fenglin has also been waiting for news.
When Zhao Chenqi returned, Lord Fenglin's eyes were filled with anxiety. Although he didn't ask directly, it was obvious.
Lin Dechang sat next to them, watching the two of them quietly.
After several days of investigation, it was basically confirmed that what Lin Dechang said was true. Therefore, Lord Fenglin had changed his attitude towards him in the past two days, treating him as a guest of honor and a confidant, and he did not hide anything from him.
"Has the Lord received the news?" Zhao Chenqi asked anxiously after paying his respects to Lord Fenglin.
Lord Fenglin nodded and said, "But what about the news from Japan?"
"That's right." Zhao Chenqi nodded in agreement with a serious expression.
"I didn't expect the progress to be so fast. I thought it would take another year or two, but I didn't expect it to be over so quickly. This is not a good thing for our plan." Lord Fenglin said helplessly.
"Kim Jong-min and his men are ready to ally with the Ming Dynasty," Zhao Chenqi said. "Although they haven't said it directly, their words have already hinted at this. They hope the Ming Dynasty can offer more benefits and help them defeat Zheng Xuhong and his men."
"After all, if Zheng Xuhong and the others are gone, there will be fewer people to share the benefits. Both the Ming Dynasty and they can get more. This is very disadvantageous for us." Zhao Chenqi said with a dark face.
"How shameless!" Lord Fenglin said angrily.
"They are selling out North Korea! These people are traitors!" Lin Dechang said excitedly, "Your Majesty, we can't let them succeed. Otherwise, they will gain the support of the Ming Dynasty, and things will be troublesome."
"The most important thing is that these people will become dogs of the Ming Dynasty, just like Park Jung-yang. When the time comes, they will do whatever the Ming Dynasty asks them to do. They will support the king chosen by the Ming Dynasty, and Korea will be on the verge of collapse!"
