Chapter 542 Show mercy
Ma Dazhi couldn't understand what Chen Er was trying to say.
But Chen Er's words left Ma Dazhi completely bewildered and impressed.
"Boss, I've noticed you've been beating around the bush lately. Just say what you mean directly. Are we moving up the pace of dealing with Wei Zhongxian?"
Ma Dazhi's words made Chen Er give a helpless bitter smile. Chen Er felt that Ma Dazhi was a good-tempered person with excellent skills, but his brain was usually not very effective.
Chen Er could only smile and remain silent about this, and the two returned to their current stalemate, with Zhang Tianfei already in a fighting stance.
He was just waiting for Chen Er and his men to come and kill him, but something unexpected happened to Zhang Tianfei. Chen Er acted as if he were shooing away flies.
"Zhang Tianfei, you can leave now. I'll give Ma Tiantao face today, but remember, don't let me run into you again, or I'll make you suffer a terrible death."
Chen Er's words were very cold, which left Zhang Tianfei feeling somewhat helpless. Zhang Tianfei glared angrily at Chen Er and Ma Dazhi.
"Don't think I'll be grateful if you let me go today. We'll meet again in the martial world. If I run into you again, I definitely won't hold back."
After Zhang Tianfei finished speaking with an air of superiority, he left. What Zhang Tianfei had just said almost made Ma Dazhi vomit blood in anger.
Ma Dazhi had seen arrogant people before, but he had never seen anyone so arrogant. If Chen Er had given the order just now, Zhang Tianfei would have been bedridden for months, even if he hadn't died.
Therefore, Ma Dazhi really couldn't understand why Chen Er made this choice.
After Zhang Tianfei left, Ma Tiantao gave Chen Er a helpless bitter smile and said very insistently.
"Lord Chen Er, thank you for understanding my good intentions. I believe that time can change a person's mind. It won't be long before Zhang Tianfei betrays Wei Zhongxian. At that time, even if Wei Zhongxian has wings, he won't be able to escape."
Ma Tiantao said this with great arrogance, and Ma Dazhi chuckled upon hearing it.
"Brother, have you lost your mind? If Zhang Tianfei were really willing to help us and fight against Wei Zhongxian, he wouldn't have said 'see you in the martial world' just now."
Therefore, I advise you to be careful and stay away from Zhang Tianfei; cherishing your own life is the most important thing.
Chen Er firmly stated, "I believe Ma Tiantao is right. Think about it: if we wanted to kill Wei Zhongxian, who would be the most suitable candidate?"
Chen Er's words immediately made the atmosphere around them a little strange. Without thinking, Ma Dazhi spoke again.
"Of course, it has to be someone close to Wei Zhongxian. Zhang Tianfei can help us deal with Wei Zhongxian. Moreover, this person must be extremely capable, otherwise, he might want to die before he even kills Wei Zhongxian. Who knows?"
After Ma Dazhi finished speaking, he seemed to realize something and looked at Chen Er and Ma Tiantao with disbelief, asking in a trembling voice.
"I was saying that you two had actually planned this all along, right? This was absolutely amazing. But how can we guarantee that Zhang Tianfei will agree to kill Wei Zhongxian?"
Ma Dazhi wasn't particularly excited about his idea; he was more troubled by it, wishing he were a favorite of Wei Zhongxian right now.
This way, one could approach Wei Zhongxian without restraint. Moreover, for anyone who wasn't familiar with Wei Zhongxian, getting within a few meters of him was simply a pipe dream.
That's why Chen Er has resorted to this desperate measure. Whether the assassin named Zhang Tianfei helps him or not, Chen Er is gambling with his life.
If this succeeds, Wei Zhongxian may be completely eliminated. In other words, if it fails, the relationship between the two will completely collapse.
It is estimated that even if the emperor intervenes, he will not be able to turn the situation around, so this time we are very optimistic about this matter.
Chen Er suddenly thought of something and looked angrily at Ma Dazhi and Liu Chengdong: "I say you two are really something, aren't you?"
"You didn't even consult me about something as important as assassinating Wei Zhongxian! If Qin Luoshen hadn't taken care of the note you left on the table, I probably wouldn't even know you'd been killed by Wei Zhongxian."
Chen Er became increasingly angry as he spoke, and almost lost control, punching and kicking the two men who were grinning maliciously. In the end, it was Ma Dazhi and Liu Chengdong who both swore an oath at the same time.
He said he would never take the risk of assassinating Wei Zhongxian again, otherwise he would never have a beautiful woman in the future, which put Chen Er at ease.
However, before leaving, Chen Er instructed Ma Tiantao: "Brother, you must be careful of Wei Zhongxian and Zhang Tianfei in the future, otherwise we won't be able to rescue you."
Ma Tiantao found Chen Er's words very agreeable, given Chen Er's high status.
Moreover, Chen Er is the only one in the court who can rival Wei Zhongxian and even lose to him, so Ma Tiantao understands this.
As long as you follow Chen Er and work diligently, you will eventually be able to bring down Wei Zhongxian.
It's estimated that Ma Tiantao couldn't meet any of his demands, so Ma Tiantao smiled immediately.
"Don't worry, Lord Chen Er. I will not let you down no matter what. Although Wei Zhongxian is usually too cunning, I am a favorite of Wei Zhongxian."
"If I wanted to kill Wei Zhongxian, I would have a fairly good chance of succeeding."
In Ma Tiantao's eyes, dealing with Wei Zhongxian was a piece of cake, but Chen Er interrupted Ma Tiantao's suggestion.
"Brother, don't do anything rash. Didn't I just tell you? Don't do anything to deal with Wei Zhongxian yourself. It would be best to let Zhang Tianfei do it for you."
There was one more thing Chen Er hadn't made clear: he knew Wei Zhongxian very well, and it was possible that this old traitor might even know some martial arts.
So even if Ma Tiantao wanted to kill Wei Zhongxian in the end, it would be an extremely dangerous task.
Ma Tiantao was very moved by this: "Then I would like to thank you all in advance. I hope that we can work together to reach new heights and bring down Wei Zhongxian to restore peace and order to the Ming Dynasty."
