Chapter 522 The Reversal of the Most Poisonous Woman's Heart
He Changbao's body shivered.
Xiangluo's plan was really vicious! It sounds tempting, but can it work?
Just as he was hesitating in his heart, Fan Yunhe, who was sitting nearby, laughed and said, "Old He, what are you whispering to sister-in-law? Haha, I really envy the relationship between you two! Although we were together only after the apocalypse and didn't even have a marriage certificate, we are still much stronger than some people."
These words were naturally a sneer at Zeng Lei's actions of killing his wife.
Zeng Lei snorted coldly. He looked around and said to He Changbao, "City Lord He, you set up this banquet today, but I found that there seems to be no wine left. Could it be that Floating Cloud City is so petty that they don't even have enough wine?"
He Changbao laughed and turned to Xiangluo, "Go out and ask the soldiers outside to bring another two boxes of wine over."
After saying that, he looked at Zeng Lei and said, "This Mogao Cave is actually my wine storage area. The reason why I chose to meet everyone here is precisely because I want to bring out the good wine I gathered in the apocalypse for my brothers to taste! Don't worry, the wine pipe is enough!"
Xiangluo smiled and nodded slightly to the crowd before walking out.
Just as she was about to leave the cave-shaped house, Zeng Lei also stood up and said, "I want to go out too. This wine was drunk too quickly. I feel like I'm holding back a piss!"
Everyone laughed at his rude words.
Zeng Lei roared unconvincingly, "I'm a rough guy, but I don't want to pretend to be gentle!"
As he spoke, he walked to the door and followed Xiangluo out of the room.
Outside, there was a cloud of smoke and fog.
In the open space near the Mogao Grottoes, there were 20,000 troops gathered. And today, the sandstorm was so strong that the world naturally became cloudy, unable to see anything within a few dozen meters.
Walking along the long corridor built on the mountain wall, Zeng Lei's originally drunk eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light. He quickly caught up to the incense conch in front of him, then put a short knife on her back and whispered, "Woman! Do you want to live and die?"
Xiangluo didn't expect a person to suddenly come up behind her. He used a sharp weapon to push her waist out. He frowned and turned around to find that it was Zeng Lei. He actually revealed a smile and said, "Brother Zeng Lei, what did you say? What do you mean you want to live and die?"
Zeng Lei said coldly, "I look like a rough guy, but I'm definitely not an idiot!" What exactly are you trying to do by constantly drinking wine for us? What did you whisper in He Changbao's ear just now? Hmph, could it be that that old brat invited us to dinner today and set up a Hongmen banquet? There are at least three thousand of my brothers among the people below. If we really fight, I'm not afraid of your Floating Cloud City! "Moreover, there are thirteen powers here. I don't believe that all of them can join you."
Xiangluo smiled and nodded.
"Brother Zeng Lei! No one treats you like a fool! In the last two years of the apocalypse, no one who can become the lord of a city will be a fool. I don't need you to tell me that.
Today's match is indeed a Hongmen banquet, as you said. He Changbao invited all of you here with the intention of eradicating dissidents and annexing your forces!
Although there are three thousand people below you and the other eleven city masters have their own thoughts, if all of you city masters who are not in sync with He Changbao die, do you think that He Changbao will have any difficulty in seizing control of these people below you?
Most importantly, once he kills all of you, he can wrongly accuse Tang Yu, the lord of Tang City! Just say that the spies Tang Yu sent poisoned the wine before you were killed. Even if your people have doubts, what can they do to He Changbao when the situation is over? "
When Zeng Lei heard Xiangluo's words, he was stunned on the spot. After a long time, he asked doubtfully, "I heard that Floating Cloud City's City Lord He Changbao and Xiangluo are very close. Why did you tell me everything when I threatened you? Who exactly are you and what role did you play in this match? Why is this daddy a little confused?"
Xiangluo said calmly, "I'm just a woman! Zeng Lei, I want to ask you, which of these two things is more tempting for you, taking over Tang City or becoming the alliance leader of the Thirteen Small Cities?"
Zeng Lei said without any hesitation, "Of course it's the alliance leader of the thirteen small cities!"
Xiangluo said, "That's right!" Since that's the case, why can't you use the same method to deal with He Changbao if he wants to deal with you? If you can rush back later and kill He Changbao and the others together with a few small city lords who have a good relationship with you, won't you be able to fulfill your wish? But also to get rid of a major heart-to-heart problem? "
Zeng Lei was even more surprised. He looked around and found that no one noticed him and Xiangluo, so he asked, "You seem to be right! But now I don't believe what you said. Why did you do this? What good would it do for you to betray He Changbao?"
Xiangluo said,
"I just don't want to die! Since you've already attacked me, I don't think you'll let me off no matter what I say. Because you are worried that after I return, I will tell He Changbao about you threatening me with a knife. Even if He Changbao will not do anything to you on the surface, he will definitely plot against you secretly. Then even if this round is not a Hongmen banquet, it will become a Hongmen banquet for you.
So I'd rather tell you the truth and help you with your work! That way, you won't kill me, and to me, it's just another man.
He Changbao is dull and dull. I don't love him as much as you see on the surface. However, in the apocalypse, a weak woman like me always needs to find a man to rely on. Didn't you say?
Another reason is that I don't want to see you attack Tang City. Tang City's City Lord, Tang Yu, is actually my cousin. Before the apocalypse, we contacted each other by phone because we weren't in the same city. We haven't seen each other since the apocalypse. Thinking about it, it has been several years since we last met.
However, we are blood related after all, and when we were together back then, our relationship was very good, as if we were biological sisters of the same father and mother.
You may have doubts about this, but it is a fact. Tang Yu used to work in Hangzhou City. I guess the reason why she came here was precisely to look for our family.
Sigh, when I found out that Tang Yu was in Tang City, He Changbao had already drawn Tang City's attention. I originally wanted to tell him the truth so that he would give up on this idea, but that night, I found He Changbao sleeping in another room with another woman. At that time, I knew that I was not irreplaceable to He Changbao. So, this woman just can't give up on men, she should still have her own plans!
I don't ask too much, I just hope that Brother Zeng Lei can help me tonight. If you succeed, let me go and let me go back to Tang City! At that time, I will definitely convince my cousin Tang Yu to nominate you as the Alliance Leader of more than a dozen small cities in the northwest and east regions.
At that time, you won't need to expend much effort. Not only will you be able to obtain the resources and women of Tang City, you will also be able to become the Alliance Master of your dreams. At the same time, you will be able to wipe out dissidents and annihilate enemies. Moreover, Tang City, which is surrounded by dangers, won't need to face any more dangers because they have already formed an alliance with you. "This is mutually beneficial. To you, the strategy of one stone and three birds is not tempting enough. Can't you take risks?"
Hearing this, Zeng Lei was already a little dizzy, because the change of events made him somewhat unacceptable. This incense conch actually said that Tang Yu, the lord of Tang City, was her cousin.
This was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that what she said was indeed extremely tempting to Zeng Lei!
If he really succeeded in this matter, wouldn't he be like a fool in this area in the future? At that time, there would be a considerable amount of power with the dozen or so large cities in the Northwest City-State.
If that was the case, then that would be great!
While Zeng Lei was thinking, Xiangluo continued,
"Alright!
Didn't you discover that the people I drank the most were all supporters of He Changbao? As for the few small city lords who have befriended you, although they drank quite a bit of wine, they still remain sober!
Don't waste time. He Changbao should be suspicious later. Like you said, he isn't a fool.
I'll get someone to get the wine now. After I return, I will continue to drink wine for those people who support He Changbao until they are unconscious!
It'll be easy for you to kill them. And I can testify to you that they did die from alcohol poisoning. You survived because you found out that something was wrong and caught the spy and found the antidote on him.
As for spies … just find a random little city lord that you killed! When the time came, he would cut off his head and tell outsiders that he wanted to kill the other city lords and take over the management of the army of the thirteen small cities.
In any case, we are the only ones present, so how can we be so courteous?
Everyone in Floating Cloud City knows that I have a good relationship with He Changbao, so as long as I testify for you, no one will doubt me!
What happened afterwards was simple, With your support, I will temporarily take over the position of City Lord of Floating Cloud City, and I am also a woman. Naturally, there are many things that need to be discussed with Brother Zeng Lei and the surviving City Lord. At that time, only five or six of the thirteen City Lords will be alive. However, the twenty thousand plus troops below are from the thirteen forces. We will take this opportunity to integrate and merge all of them into one!
With the troops, wouldn't the other cities without a city lord be able to get their hands on the birds? Even if there are still some vice city masters in their city, they can't contend against us who are heavily armed. With Tang City's support, your strength is naturally greater than the other surviving City Lords, so you will naturally be able to become the Alliance Master in the end! "
As Xiangluo spoke, she twisted her butt and walked forward. It was only when she arrived at a wine cellar a hundred meters away and ordered people to bring out two boxes of liquor that Zeng Lei took a deep breath and thought to himself, "Indeed, it is the most poisonous woman's heart!"
