contacted the local families in Xishan Province according to the secret decree from Your Highness. Under the guidance of Master Zhao He Shan, he successfully made contact with the Lei, Zheng, and Qian...Chapter 392: Pleading for Mercy

"The young one has seen the master."

Faced with Li Chen's gaze, the middle-aged man lowered his head and simultaneously pulled Zhao Tailai behind him.

"Before leaving, the master ordered that my young master must not cause any trouble or offend anyone. If I have offended you, sir, please forgive me."

Zhao Tailai recognized this middle-aged man and knew he was a confidant of his father. He felt conflicted in an instant.

Father really did anticipate this and had someone following me.

It's also fortunate that someone followed along, otherwise I would have been at a loss today.

In any case, Zhao Tailai dared not resist. Because scolding this middle-aged man was equivalent to opposing his own father.

Li Chen narrowed his eyes slightly. From the middle-aged man's attitude towards him, he knew the other party was aware of his identity.

"The chief minister truly has deep filial piety." Li Chen said lightly.

The middle-aged man didn't dare respond. He just bowed to Li Chen and then pulled Zhao Tailai away.

Zhao Tailai was panicked.

He came here to save Zhang Wangyang. If he leaves now, wouldn't he lose all face!

"Take Zhang brother along with us!"

Zhao Tailai's words made the middle-aged man frown, feeling a mixture of impatience and helplessness in his heart.

My own young master... is really quite lacking in discernment.

At this point, being able to escape unharmed was already a difficult feat. To even dream of taking Zhang Wangyang with him was out of the question.

"Master..."

The middle-aged man gritted his teeth and bowed to Li Chen, just about to speak when he heard Li Chen smile and say, "Getting greedy"

The middle-aged man immediately shut his mouth upon hearing this and, without a word, took Zhao Tailai's hand and walked away.

This time, he let Zhao Tai come struggle without caring.

Zhang Wangyang watched his savior being taken away, and he immediately felt numb.

He never expected that Zhao Tailai wanted to save him, but almost forced Li Chen to kneel down and accompany him.

If it weren't for that middle-aged man showing up, Li Chen had raised his hand, this situation would have been really bad.

At this moment, a cold wind blew through, making Zhang Wangyang shiver and his face pale.

Everyone around fell silent. At this point, even a fool could see that Li Chen's arrogance and domineering attitude came from genuine capability.

Hasn't Zhao Tai come and gone

"Well, is it an apology or are you continuing to kneel This young master doesn't have much patience." Li Chen said coldly.

Zhang Wangyang was on the verge of tears.

He looked at Li Chen, gritting his teeth, clenching his fists, his body trembling slightly.

Rather than stay here and be treated like a dog, he decided to bend the rules a little.

It's better to get rid of everyone at once than to stay here and be a mascot for them.

"Young master, I was blind not to recognize Mount Tai when I saw it. Please, please have mercy and let me go."

When he said this, Zhang Wangyang lowered his head stubbornly, afraid to look into anyone's eyes. He was terrified that all he would see were mockery and contempt.

At this moment, Zhang Wangyang was truly regretting his actions. It was just a place on a carriage, did he really have to fight for it Now he had brought trouble upon himself.

Li Chen glanced at Zhang Wangyang indifferently.

No matter what he was thinking, how much he hated himself, Li Chen didn't really care.

Even this apology is not for so-called face.

Zhang Wangyang's face hasn't grown large enough for him to come and fight for face.

What he wanted to test more was the Duke of Wen's son's composure.

Unfortunately, Zhao Taili's appearance disrupted Li Chen's rhythm.

It seemed as if Wen Wang's son had noticed Li Chen's gaze. He gave a gentle smile, and the displeasure and anger he had felt towards Li Chen before vanished completely. Even then, he bowed his hand and said, "Young Master, since things have passed, why don't I accompany you personally and go in together"tion, are more trouble than anything else.Having learned from the previous experience of the Saintess, Li Chen didn't want to sleep halfway through and have his head chopped off in his dream.“Even the...
