Chapter 162 Trading
"Sima Yang, what's going on? I remember that the city gates should not be closed at this time, right?" Zhang Liang got off the carriage. Although he had a smile on his face, his heart had sunk to the bottom.

There are nine gates leading to the outside of Xinzheng, but Yang Chong appeared here. What does this mean? Zhang Liang did not dare to think deeply.

"Two notorious bandits sneaked into Xinzheng today. They are extremely vicious, so we've made an exception tonight and we've got to capture them as soon as possible," said Yang Chong.

"Sima Yang, don't you think those two bandits are in my carriage?" Zhang Liang felt even more uneasy after hearing Yang Chong's explanation. Could it really be such a coincidence that two bandits were in my carriage?

"Of course there's no way a bandit can hide in Zifang's carriage, but the same can't be said for the guards behind you." Yang Chong said with a smile, his eyes shifting from Zhang Liang to the two teams of guards behind the carriage.

Although they are all wearing masks and their appearances cannot be seen, a person is identified by more than just his face, his behavior habits are also included.

This is what is meant by seeing the big picture from the small details.

"Sima Yang, is there anything wrong with my guards?" Zhang Liang followed Yang Chong's gaze and his heart was pounding, because Yang Chong's eyes fell on a person, and that person happened to be the most special one among his two teams of guards.

"There's nothing wrong with it. However, Zifang, Xinzheng is not safe now. You should not leave the city tonight. You'd better go back." Yang Chong said.

"Sima Yang?" Zhang Liang wanted to say something, but when he met Yang Chong's gaze, his heart trembled. He vaguely realized that he seemed to have been exposed, but he didn't know why Yang Chong didn't expose him at the first time. But he knew that if he continued to pester him, the consequences would be unpredictable.

"Zifang, please go back." Yang Chong waved his hand to signal Zhang Liang to leave.

Zhang Liang could only leave with a silent sigh.

……

Zilanxuan.

"Were you stopped by Yang Chong?" Han Fei looked at Zhang Liang and Shang Gongzi who had returned, his face becoming even more bitter. It would have been fine if the two were stopped by someone else, but this person happened to be Yang Chong, which meant that Yang Chong was really doomed, and this time his identity was still that of Ye Mu's man, which made Han Fei worry.

There are only two fighters on their side, Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang, but on Ye Mu's side, there are Yang Chong, Ji Wuye and Ye Mu's group of killers. In addition, there is also the unidentified Luowang killer.

The power comparison between the two sides is really too great.

"Yes, I have a feeling that it is not a coincidence that Yang Chong appeared there. There are nine city gates in Xinzheng, and the gate I went through was just a random one. Beforehand, even I didn't know which gate I would go through, but Yang Chong just happened to appear there. Could this be a coincidence?" Zhang Liang pondered, his eyes passing over Master Shang.

Yang Chong had never been to Qin State, and it was even more impossible for him to recognize Master Shang. How could he have discovered Master Shang's existence? Could it be Luo Wang's intelligence? But was Luo Wang's intelligence really that powerful? And Luo Wang would really be unreserved about Ye Mu. Zhang Liang had deep doubts about this.

"Then why didn't he do it?" Han Fei questioned.

"Maybe he is weighing which side he can get greater benefits from." Zhang Liang said uncertainly.

"It's a good thing for us that he didn't take action immediately." Han Fei's thoughts turned, and he could only find a little thing that could be used in the unfavorable situation before him.

"Is Yang Chong very strong?" Master Shang, who was intercepted back, was somewhat impatient at this time. Fortunately, he had practiced the skill of nourishing his Qi almost perfectly over the years, so he did not show any signs of it.

But, who on earth is Yang Chong, that he could make Han Fei and others feel like they are facing a formidable enemy? Even Gai Nie remained silent. This meant that Master Shang had no choice but to treat Yang Chong seriously. Here, he was not King Zheng of Qin. Here, an insignificant person could take his life.

"I'm afraid no one in Xinzheng can be his opponent. Perhaps only the killers from Luowang can fight him. But right now, the two sides may be in a cooperative relationship." Han Fei said distressedly.

Right now there is only one way for them to go, that is to use Yang Chong to control Luo Wang, and use Luo Wang to deal with Yang Chong. However, the two have already cooperated, and how to make them hostile is a big problem for Han Fei and others at the moment.

There is an opportunity in Jingwei, but whether Jingwei can be trusted is a question. Even if Jingwei can be trusted, what is Yang Chong's attitude towards Jingwei is another question.

Han Fei thought about it and decided to give it a try regardless of whether Jingwei could restrain Yang Chong, because they had no better choice at the moment.

Fortunately, Jingwei was hiding near Zilanxuan in order to let Wei Zhuang and others find her as soon as possible, so Han Fei found Jingwei easily.

"If you are really the person sent by Queen Mother Zhao to protect Master Shang, then we now have a common goal, and Master Shang needs your help now." Han Fei looked at Jing Wei in front of him. It was really difficult to connect the woman in front of him with Luowang's top-notch killer.

"How can you make me believe you?" Jingwei asked, but his eyes inadvertently swept over Wei Zhuang. They were old acquaintances, but they were enemies.

"This is Master Shang's handwriting. Can you trust it?" Han Fei threw out a scroll of bamboo slips.

Jingwei took the bamboo slips and unfolded them. She had seen the handwriting on them at Queen Dowager Zhao's place before, so it couldn't be fake.

"What do you want me to do?" Jingwei asked, believing Han Fei's words.

"Come with us back to Zilanxuan, meet one person, and persuade one person." Han Fei stated his purpose.

"Who to meet?" Jingwei asked, but she already had the answer in her heart. In Xinzheng, the only person who had a connection with her was Yang Chong.

"Yang Chong."

When Han Fei met Jingwei, Yang Chong also met Zi Nu, but compared to Han Fei's request, Zi Nu's attitude was not so friendly. "What happened today? Did someone provoke you?" Yang Chong looked at the girl in front of him, whose nose was not a nose and eyes were not eyes, and was somewhat confused. Although he was making things difficult for Han Fei and the others, he did not remember how he had offended the boss of Zi Lan Xuan.

"Why didn't I see it before." Zi Nu looked Yang Chong up and down. How could she not see what was so good about Yang Chong that he could make Jing Wei, a top-notch assassin of Luowang, give birth to two children for her.

Although this era is particularly tolerant towards men, as a woman, how could Zi Nu not have any grudges about such things? As for why she didn't mind, does it matter?

It doesn't matter at all, because she is a woman. Women can be unreasonable.

"What did you see?" Yang Chong touched his face in astonishment. Did he become more handsome?
I told you, there has been new progress in practicing Fuxi Shentianxiang recently. This kind of Kung Fu can sublimate a person's temperament the most. With the addition of temperament, it can make people more handsome. Yang Chong thought to himself, and was quite happy.

Although he makes a living by his ability, this does not prevent him from wanting to make another living by relying on his looks. Who would complain about being able to eat more?
"I didn't know you had the ability to be loved by everyone." Zi Nu looked at the conceited Yang Chong with a leisurely tone. The mood she had created with great difficulty was almost unsustainable after Yang Chong's interruption.

"Did you just realize it?" Yang Chong smiled, thinking that Zi Nu was praising him.

"Don't be so conceited. Jingwei has appeared in Xinzheng." Zi Nu rolled her eyes at Yang Chong. It was no longer possible to question him, so she could only talk about business.

"Jingwei, how could it be her?" Yang Chong said in surprise, with an expression of shock that was difficult to conceal on his face.

"Why can't it be her?" Zi Nu asked back. The change in Yang Chong's expression made her make her own judgment. Yang Chong obviously did not forget Jing Wei, Luowang's top killer, the person who once wanted to take his life, his former wife, who still held an important place in his heart.

"I didn't expect it would be her." Yang Chong had a complicated expression. Although he knew that Luowang's people wanted to kill Qin Wang Zheng, he never thought that the Luowang killer would be Jingniu. But then again, Jingniu was Luowang's top killer, and it was normal for it to be a mission like this.

"I didn't expect it to be her. That means what else have you thought of?" Zi Nu keenly grasped the loophole in Yang Chong's words. There was another layer of meaning in it.

"King Zheng of Qin came to Xinzheng, and Luowang sent a killer to kill him. I didn't expect that the killer would be Jingniu." Yang Chong said. In front of Zi Nu, he had nothing to hide.

"You really know everything." Zi Nu didn't know whether she should be shocked or happy. She was shocked that Yang Chong knew all their details, but she was happy that Yang Chong did not hide anything from her and really treated her as his own.

"Why did Han Fei ask you to tell me this news? Is he planning to have me take action against Jingwei? Although Jingwei's martial arts are good, Wei Zhuang and Gai Nie may not be her opponents alone, but if they join forces, Jingwei will definitely not be their opponent." Yang Chong said.

"Han Fei and his men's current enemies are not just the Luowang killers, but also Ye Mu. How can they feel at ease before they are sure of what your plans are?" Zi Nu said with a wry smile. It was really difficult for her to be caught between the two sides.

"Now that you tell me this news, do you think it is certain that my position will lean towards them?" Yang Chong asked.

"That's pretty much what they meant." Zi Nu revealed a look of distress when she said this. If possible, she didn't want to create opportunities between Yang Chong and Jing Wei, but at the moment, she could only tell the truth and increase her influence on Yang Chong, so that Yang Chong could become a helper on their side.

"Why?" Yang Chong did not look happy. Although he did not intend to take advantage of the current opportunity to assassinate King Zheng of Qin, it did not mean that he could allow Han Fei to plot against him so unscrupulously.

"Jingwei has a pair of children who are raised in Ganquan Palace in Qin State. Is this information enough?" Zi Nu said, her attention now completely fixed on Yang Chong's face. She would not allow herself to miss even the slightest reaction from Yang Chong.

"Jingwei has a pair of children? This..." Yang Chong was bewildered, then he smiled: "As expected of Jingwei, this should be true. But, it's also worthy of me!"

"What, you understand everything?" Yang Chong's smile made Zi Nu grit her teeth. She used to think that there was only one woman, Yan Lingji, in Yang Chong's life, and she could be ranked second. Who would have thought that now she would be ranked third. As for Tian Mi and Ying Ge, Zi Nu did not take them seriously and did not even consider them concubines.

"I understand. Jingwei does have a physique that allows her to get pregnant easily. But I am still amazing. I can actually make her give birth to twins at once." Yang Chong smiled, very proud. Although the two little guys are far away in Xianyang, it does not hinder his happiness.

"Should I congratulate you?" Zi Nu rolled her eyes at Yang Chong, feeling very annoyed with his smugness.

"You should congratulate them properly. Don't forget to prepare some gifts for the two little ones. You are the elder after all."

Yang Chong pretended not to notice Zi Nu's little emotions. At this time, he absolutely could not respond to Zi Nu's little emotions, otherwise her little emotions would explode and be out of control. On the contrary, if Yang Chong ignored it, although Zi Nu would be upset for a while, it would be easy to solve the problem after the anger passed. This is what is called avoiding the real and attacking the false.

"How can it be my turn?" Zi Nu curled her lips. She was so angry that she had no place to vent it, so she could only endure it.

"It's my turn, it's my turn. You told me the news. Are Han Fei and that Master Shang going to make a deal with me?" Yang Chong brought the conversation back to the point.

"Yes, what Han Fei and Master Shang mean is that if you can send Master Shang back to Qin safely, they will return your two children and Jingwei to you." Zi Nu said.

"They have a good idea, but maybe they have misunderstood something. I am just a task for Jingwei. She only cares about her own children, and she has no feelings for me." Yang Chong replied. Yang Chong thought he knew what kind of person Jingwei was. He had the memories of his previous life and the experience of this life. If we talk about who knows Jingwei best in this world, it must be him.

As for what King Zheng of Qin said about returning Jingniu to him, he believed that Jingniu would definitely obey such an order. However, what Yang Chong got was only Jingniu, not Wei Niu Shang, with whom he was engaged and married in Weijiazhuang. Yang Chong had no interest in a cold sword.

"You don't understand women." Zi Nu looked at Yang Chong who had a determined expression, and suddenly felt that Yang Chong was not as wise as he seemed. He also had his own naivety, and Jing Wei still had some of his naivety.

"But I understand killers." Yang Chong did not comment. He did not believe that Jingwei had feelings for him. She was a cold sword, and only her children could feel her warmth.

"No, you are wrong. If she really doesn't care about you, why would she give birth to a pair of children for you?" Zi Nu shook her head. She disagreed with Yang Chong's opinion.
