At last, he pressed it down...
The reason was quite simple.
Although this trump card was lethal, it required the right moment.
At that time, Yan Chen's position was too high, and he had enough value to exploit from Huang Shangzong.
Even if Huang Shangzong knew that Yan Chen was one of the main culprits behind Jia Shu's death, he would only suppress this hate.
After all, in politics, there is nothing that can't be dealt.
Only now, when Huang Shangzong had become the Speaker, with a gradually solidifying foundation, and Yan Chen had even lost his member of parliament status.
The relationship between them was no longer "like a cooperative," but a "vassal relationship."
Huang Shangzong could now decide Yan Chen's fate with a single word, and Yan Chen couldn't bring much benefit to Huang Shangzong.
This was the right time to pass this trump card to Huang Shangzong!
After all, with Yan Chen no longer able to influence Huang Shangzong significantly, even if Huang Shangzong magnanimously chose not to seek revenge for Jia Shu, he wouldn't support Yan Chen any longer.
After all... The "Academic Faction" was never short of talent.
There should be no few members of his faction who could compete with Yan Chen, giving Huang Shangzong plenty of options.
But for Yan Chen, it was different: he had lost the biggest backer of his faction in the state, lost the trust of a state speaker.
Also offending Liu Xiongyuan, the speaker, Yan Chen would never have a chance to rise again...
By that time, he would be at the mercy of Qiu Tu and Liu Xiongyuan...
Qiu Tu could understand all these, and the old fox, Yu Zhengyi, obviously realized this as well.
A smile involuntarily appeared on his face...
However, after smiling, Yu Zhengyi seemed to think of something, and suddenly asked, "By the way... Minister Qiu, there wasn't any recording of this conversation, right?"
Upon hearing Yu Zhengyi's words, Qiu Tu huffed and said, "Director Yu, you jest."
"What value would there be in recording our conversation?"
Saying this, Qiu Tu, in a gesture of sincerity, specifically searched his pockets and then stood up to the side, saying, "If you don't believe it, you can search the room..."
Hearing Qiu Tu's words, the old fox Yu Zhengyi said with a smile, "Minister Qiu, you jest. I, of course, trust you..."
However, after chatting casually for a moment, Yu Zhengyi did not delve deeper but found an excuse to leave Qiu Tu's office.
After seeing off Yu Zhengyi and watching his back, Qiu Tu smiled.
Then he walked back to his reception room and approached the sofa.
Opening the tea table beside him, there it was, conspicuously placed, a small tape recorder.
Pressing pause, Qiu Tu rewound the tape and played the conversation between the two.
After confirming there were no issues, Qiu Tu made a copy of this recording tape and, opening the safe, also put it inside...
A day passed quickly.
This day, in the real world, Xinjie City was busy bustling, and in the Boundless Heart Sea of the Xinjie Territory, it was similarly bustling...
At last, Larilo returned to her loyal Xinjie Territory...
She searched the stream three times;
Went through the two secret locations where she stored her "Boundless Divine Crystal" and family wealth about seven or eight times;
Used the summoning ceremony for the Cuiying Dragon countless times...
Finally, as she watched the sun slowly rising in the Boundless Heart Sea, gazed at the grass dewy with condensation, and at the towering trees slowly growing taller under the sunlight, she confirmed something...
Her home had been ransacked...
Just a few months away, and Larilo felt like the sky had fallen!
Sitting atop a tree, her face was filled with bewilderment...
Where's my regional center? Such a large regional center?
Where's my family wealth? All that wealth?
Where's my dragon? Such a large, docile, and passive dragon loli?
How... is it all gone?
