a wrong one."Zhang Biwu spoke up to comfort him: "Your Excellency, back then none of us expected this. We can only say that the East Palace did have some skill in utilizing the situation. In the mids...Chapter 389: Who Kneels Down

This second outburst of cursing had already kindled anger in Li Chen.

He turned and continued walking towards Yimeiyuan, faintly telling the Jinyiwei Qianhu who drove his carriage: "Deal with it cleanly."

The Jinyiwei Qianhu bowed to Li Chen and his party, then turned his head and grinned menacingly towards the servant.

The servant didn't know he was about to die, and kept cursing.

"Do you know what my master's status is He is the son of the Minister of War, a university scholar in the Martial Arts Hall. If you are sensible, come and kneel down to apologize to my master right away. Maybe there's still hope for you..."

If one were to speak of it casually, that would be fine.

Having received the order from Li Chen, the Jinyiwei commander could kill Zhang Biwu's son. Let alone, even if Zhang Biwu himself came, he would dare to strike him down.

So without even letting the wretched servant finish his words, the Jinyiwei had already clamped his throat.

Ka-la.

A sharp crack.

That was the sound of a windpipe being crushed.

Seeing that someone was about to be killed, those spoiled young masters surrounding him didn't fear it at all; instead, they egged each other on.

At this moment, the master of the carriage also emerged.

Zhang Wangyang first glanced at his dead servant, then coldly looked at the Jinyiwei thousand household who had done it.

But like Li Chen, he was utterly disdainful of speaking to servants.

He called out to Li Chen's name as soon as he looked up.

"I've never seen you before, young master. First time in the capital You think you can just walk away after killing my people"

Li Chen stopped and said to Zhang Wangyang with interest, "A servant who causes trouble for his master should be killed. I killed him for your own good, to prevent him from causing you harm in the future. Do you need to thank me There's no need for that."

Li Chen's attitude made Zhang Wangyang's eyes turn cold.

He could sense that Li Chen was a tough opponent, but under the watchful eyes of everyone, he couldn't say or do anything. If he did, then Zhang Gongzi's face would be lost.

Getting off the carriage, Zhang Wangyang walked towards Li Chen.

Just as he was about to get close, the Jinyiwei commander, who had just started killing people, raised his hand to stop him.

Whoever comes within five steps of my house cat shall die.

A cold sentence made Zhang Wangyang's eyelids twitch.

"Such bold words! In this capital city, there are those who dare to act so recklessly"

Zhang Wangyang sneered, "Such a grand display, one would think the prince himself had left the palace."

"You outsider, this young master advises you to keep a low profile. In this capital city, the most abundant thing is officials and nobles. If you're not careful and offend someone powerful, you'll be in trouble."

Used to playing mind games with old foxes like Zhao Xuanji, Li Chen actually found it rather refreshing to face this naive and pretentious young upstart.

He smiled at Zhang Wangyang and said, "Even if you're arrogant, so what"

"Zhang Wangyang shouted with a menacing look in his eyes, "Kneel down! Apologize!"

Li Chen's smile vanished.

Having long resided in a position of power, he oversaw the rise and fall of empires. Years of immersion in political affairs and management of national matters bestowed upon him an air of imperial majesty.

When he's not smiling, he can be very intimidating.

This kind of aura has nothing to do with martial arts; it's entirely the invisible air cultivated day after day by power and status.

The scene fell silent.

Every young master who had been mocking and waiting for the excitement just moments ago, was now silent as a mouse.

It felt like disaster was about to strike at any moment.

Among them, Zhang Wangyang is the most prominent.

"Do you want me to kneel down for you"

Li Chen tasted it and said, "It's interesting."

He gave the Jinyiwei Qianhu, who had been itching for action long ago, a wink and said, "Make him kneel here. No one is allowed to stand until I give the order."Chapter 1018: Su Jinpa's Assassination Attempt
