Chapter 2015: Chapter 2011 collusion
Translator: 549690339
There was a saying that one should never hit a smiling person with a punch, let alone someone like Zhu Peter who had given him a big gift the moment they met?
Although people at Jiang Fei’s level were already very open about money and other things, if he could own a business in the core area of Pisernes, when he returned to Pisernes in the future.., he would also have a convenient place to stay.
Therefore, although Jiang Fei felt that Zhu Peter’s crafty hands were a little disgusting, he still forced himself to hold Zhu Peter’s hand as they walked into the banquet hall.
At this time, the banquet hall was already filled with a feast. All kinds of rare delicacies from the universe were available!
Jiang Fei followed Zhu Peter all the way to the main table. Moreover, Zhu Peter had even moved him to the main seat.
“Come, come, come! Lord Marshal, please take a seat!”Zhu Peter smiled and said.
“Okay!”Jiang Fei did not stand on ceremony and sat down on the main seat.
“Come, come, come. Everyone, please take a seat.”Zhu Peter then called for the others to take their seats. This time, his meeting with Jiang Fei was very ostentatious. Almost all of the important people around him were pulled over by Zhu Peter to accompany him, unfortunately, Zhu Peter’s enthusiasm was a little blind. Jiang Fei did not know these wealthy businessmen at all. Moreover, he was not very interested in these profiteers, therefore, it did not make any difference to him whether these people were big shots or gossips.
After everyone took their seats, it was inevitable for them to exchange pleasantries. Although Jiang Fei was not interested in this, he still had to accompany these people. After all, today was not the Hongmen banquet. Jiang Fei still needed these fat guys.
After some pleasantries, Zhu Peter finally got to the main topic.
“General, I heard that you were assassinated at Master Luste’s place. I wonder if this is true?”Zhu Peter asked tentatively.
“Hehe! Old Fox!”Jiang Fei cursed in his heart. If it was fake, would the old man still ask? However, on the surface, Jiang Fei still said with a pleasant expression, “I did encounter a little situation, but it’s not a big problem.”
“Sigh! Recently, the public security in Pisernes has been getting worse and worse!”A big businessman, who was accompanying the guests, tried to smooth things over.
“HMPH! Is this a public security problem? Assassinating the grand marshal of the Empire, this is a political problem!”Peter Zhu slammed the table angrily. This act was very emotional.
“Chairman, please do not be angry. Things may not be that bad,”said another person who was accompanying the guests.
“Hehe, these people really have a clear division of Labor!”Jiang Fei laughed in his heart. He did not expose these people’s tricks. He just watched their performance quietly.
“Chairman, I think it is necessary to change the public security officer of Pisernes. Other than such a big matter, even if that guy is not wrong, he should resign!”A big businessman suggested.
“Yes! Yes! I heard that chief Chi Mei Gou of Bi Zenis’core garrison area has a clean style and extraordinary abilities. I propose to let him become a public security officer!”Not everyone who accompanied the guests could receive the script, those secondary characters didn’t have any missions on them, but this didn’t prevent them from taking the opportunity to flatter Peter Zhu.
This Chi Mei Gou was a distant nephew of Peter Zhu, and could be considered one of Peter Zhu’s trusted aides. If he was chosen to be a public security officer, it would obviously increase Peter Zhu’s authority in the upper echelons of the universe empire.
“Hehe, the appointment of the sheriff is not up to me. This can only be done with his majesty’s approval.”Zhu Peter laughed loudly.
Zhu Peter laughed loudly as he was flattered by his underlings. He almost forgot the purpose of inviting Jiang Fei over. When he remembered the important matter, he quickly stopped smiling. After all, Jiang Fei had been assassinated today, however, he laughed like a flower. Even if he did not do this, it was inevitable that he would offend Jiang Fei.
Thinking of this, Zhu Peter could not help but glare at that sycophant, then, he said to Jiang Fei in a serious manner, “General, I heard that the assassin shouted my name before the assassination today. I can assure you that this matter really has nothing to do with me.”
“I know!”Jiang Fei smiled faintly.
“About this matter... Ah?”Zhu Peter was about to continue explaining. He did not expect Jiang Fei to believe him so easily. After all, being assassinated was a very serious matter, regardless of whether he was injured or not, this matter could not be resolved easily. Especially since the assassin had shouted his name. If it was a second person, they would not believe that this matter had nothing to do with him.
“Alright, you don’t have to explain anymore. I already know who did this,”Jiang Fei said with a smile.
“Lord Marshal, you know?”Zhu Peter’s eyes widened. This kind of assassination was usually carried out by death warriors. Regardless of the outcome of the assassination, these people would usually commit suicide, even if they were caught, they would not be able to get any results from the interrogation.
“Yes!”Jiang Fei nodded with certainty.
“Marshal, can you tell me who is so bold?”Zhu Peter said angrily. Although the person who was assassinated was Jiang Fei, he was also a victim. After all, the assassin was the one who framed him before he made his move!
“What do you think?”Jiang Fei smiled.
“This...”Zhu Peter pondered for a moment. He really had a few suspicious targets. First of all, the one who had the motive to assassinate Jiang Fei, the Grand Marshal of the Empire, was definitely the Vasari Army. They were enemies with the imperial army, assassinating the enemy’s highest military commander was a very reasonable motive.
Secondly, it was the people within the universe empire. Moreover, they were the higher-ups. Among these people, the only one who had the motive was the emperor of the Empire, Rivendell. This was because Jiang Fei’s strength directly threatened his throne.
Peter Zhu looked at Jiang Fei. He saw a hint of a playful smile on Jiang Fei’s face. If it was an enemy who came to assassinate Jiang Fei, Jiang Fei would obviously not show such a look. Then, the answer was..
When he thought of this, Peter Zhu was even more certain. If it was Rivendell who arranged the assassination, everything would make sense. Not only would he be able to kill Jiang Fei, who had his own army, but he would also be able to take the opportunity to frame Peter Zhu, as a result, he would be weakened as the speaker. This way, not only would Rivendell’s throne be stable, but he would also be able to gain more real power.
“It seems like you have guessed it,”Jiang Fei said with a smile.
“As expected!”With Jiang Fei’s affirmation, Jupiter was even more certain in his heart. He also hated Rivendell even more. Originally, he was the second most powerful person in the merchant alliance, he was a little unwilling to let Rivendell ascend the throne. Now that Rivendell had taken the initiative to frame him, how could he not hate the emperor?
“Grand Marshal, what are your plans?”Jupiter asked Jiang Fei after thinking for a moment. Although Jiang Fei had not said anything, since he was able to come to his banquet, Jupiter understood Jiang Fei’s intentions, he knew that he was planning to move the emperor.
