The strongest devouring system in the Three Kingdoms

Chapter 552 Preconceptions

Chen Er said indifferently, and his words left both Ma Dazhi and Liu Chengdong looking bewildered.

Ma Dazhi spoke first: "Boss, why did you secretly call us to the study today? Don't just tell me we're not allowed to assassinate Wei Zhongxian again."

There was a hint of melancholy in Ma Dazhi's words. Ma Dazhi had initially assumed that Chen Er must have figured things out and wanted to kill Wei Zhongxian, but who could have imagined Chen Er's true thoughts?

That's not how it is, which made Ma Dazhi very puzzled.

Chen Er smiled and said nonchalantly, "Actually, my question is very simple. You should have heard of Yang Xiaomei, who is Wei Zhongxian's adopted daughter."

Chen Er looked at the two of them very seriously and said, "Ma Dazhi thought for a moment and suddenly thought of Yang Xiaomei."

"I've heard of this Yang Xiaomei you mentioned. She even looks somewhat like Yang Xiaoqian. However, Wei Zhongxian is cunning and scheming. In order to win over Zhang Xingchen, he actually gave Yang Xiaomei to Zhang Xingchen."

"I wonder why you brought up Yang Xiaomei?" Chen Er sighed.

"This assassin named Zhang Tianfei is stubborn and refuses to listen to reason. He's like Wei Zhongxian's lapdog. So I want you to arrest Yang Xiaomei and hand her over to Ma Tiantao so that he can seriously help me with things."

Chen Er immediately gave the order, leaving Ma Dazhi and Liu Chengdong dumbfounded.

Because neither of them expected that Chen Er would ask them to do such a thing. But to be honest, Ma Dazhi and Liu Chengdong had already regarded Chen Er as their idol. Now that Chen Er had spoken up.

If the two of them don't handle this matter well, he really won't be able to justify it at all.

So when the two heard Chen Er's instructions, they dared not neglect them. They knew that Chen Er was determined to break ties with Zhang Xingchen this time, so they had no choice but to start with Yang Xiaomei.

As long as Yang Xiaomei falls into Ma Tiantao's hands, Zhang Xingchen will naturally not be led by the nose by Wei Zhongxian. This is Chen Er's true thought.

Although it was disgusting or cruel to do this, Chen Er was forced into it by circumstances. Chen Er had figured it out: Zhang Xingchen's power was growing.

Then he lost himself; to put it bluntly, Zhang Xingchen's mental state changed drastically.

Chen Er was determined to make Zhang Xingchen understand that no matter how much power he had now, he was worthless in Chen Er's eyes. At that moment, in Wei Zhongxian's room, Wei Zhongxian was still thinking about how to deal with Chen Er.

Suddenly, Wei Zhongxian had an idea. Let's not talk about making an example of Zhang Shaoqing for now, since Zhang Shaoqing has been acting more and more recklessly lately.

Every time Zhang Shaoqing defended the emperor, it made Wei Zhongxian very unhappy. It would be too easy for him to deal with Zhang Shaoqing. After thinking for a while, Wei Zhongxian went to the Empress Dowager to discuss the matter.

Wei Zhongxian was oblivious to the fact that a pair of bright eyes were staring intently at him from the darkness, seemingly oblivious to how to deal with Zhang Shaoqing.

Until Wei Zhongxian left his sight, the person was none other than Ma Tiantao. Ma Tiantao was now dressed in black, and even his round face was covered with a black cloth, only his eyes were visible.

He looked quite unique in the darkness. Only after Wei Zhongxian was completely out of his sight did Ma Tiantao breathe a sigh of relief.

Ma Tiantao understood that what he was doing was extremely dangerous, but he had no choice but to resort to this tactic in order to lose Chen Er's favor and obtain the handkerchief that served as evidence.

Sun Tao slowly approached Wei Zhongxian's study. Although Wei Zhongxian had already left, there were still two guards standing by the study. Wei Zhongxian's study contained a lot of evidence and documents.

Therefore, this was a place where unauthorized personnel were not allowed to enter. Even though Ma Tiantao had been following Wei Zhongxian for several years, he had never been able to successfully enter Wei Zhongxian's study.

This shows just how important this study was to Wei Zhongxian. Left with no other choice, Manma Tiantao picked up a stone from the ground and threw it into the corridor next to him.

The sound the stone made immediately attracted the attention of the two guards.

"Who's there? Get out here right now, or I'll make sure you die a horrible death today."

One of the bearded guards walked curiously toward the direction from which the noise came, but there was no one there. Immediately, one of the guards laughed and said...

"It might be a stray cat. There have been too many stray cats around our place lately. Don't make a fuss and scare yourself."

Just as the words of this social commentator were spoken, a man in black suddenly jumped down from the roof. The two guards were taken aback, and before they could even fully raise their weapons, Ma Tiantao had already taken the initiative to attack.

Ma Tiantao acted very quickly, and before the two men could fully react, he had already knocked them to the ground. Only then did the two guards realize what was happening.

Just how powerful was Ma Tiantao? He knocked one of the people unconscious with just one kick.

Before the other person could fully react, Ma Tiantao had already pinned him to the ground.

"Please don't kill me. I'm just a guard. I don't know much."

The guard said nervously, but Ma Tiantao smiled indifferently and knocked the guard unconscious with a punch. Ma Tiantao didn't intend to get anything out of these two guards, as they were already among the lowest-ranking people.

Not knowing much, Ma Tiantao had no way of knowing whether he had entered or not, so he had no choice but to break in through the window.

After Ma Tiantao jumped through the window, he was immediately captivated by the scene inside. There were bookshelves everywhere, and this was the first time Ma Tiantao had ever been to Wei Zhongxian's study.

Ma Tiantao was completely unfamiliar with the internal structure, but his most important task now was to find that damned handkerchief.

This piece of evidence absolutely could not be allowed to fall into Zhang Xingchen's hands, so Ma Tiantao didn't have time to think much about it and started searching everywhere.

Finally, Ma Tiantao found the bloodstained handkerchief in a drawer, and a strange smile appeared on his lips.
