Chapter 923: Even if I don’t try to Overtake him, he will think of all Sorts of Ways to get Rid of me

All the comments that were against Qiao Qing disappeared and now everyone was saying…

“Qiao Qing is OP!”

“Xia Houshang got what she deserved!”

“I support Duke Quan!”

“…”

The comments on the internet angered Yin Lei and he smashed his cup.

Xu Mian asked the servant to clean it up, then he tried to comfort the Emperor, “Emperor Yin, don’t be angry yet. The Duke may just be talking big. It’s like he said, if he wanted power, he would’ve tried to take it earlier. There was no reason for him to wait so long.”

Yin Lei shouted back, “That’s because he didn’t have full confidence before! Now that he has the God of Gun, he’s got wings! Who can promise that he won’t try and overthrow the current structure!”

Xu Mian didn’t say this out loud, but he was very much aware of the fact that it was never difficult for Duka Quan to take over. He was highly capable and was more respected by the citizens than anyone else.

Of course, there was no way he would say this to Yin Lei given his fragile ego.

He simply asked, “Emperor Yin, what’s your plan now?”

Yin Lei frowned, “Let me think about this.”

…

On the other side, Quan Zexi and the others arrived home. There, they saw Quan Yeqing by the door in high spirits. He smiled at Qiao Qing, “I heard everything that’s happened! You bring much honor to the Quan family! You’re far more capable than your father!”

Quan Zexi, “…”

He Wanqing wasn’t in such a good mood. She checked Qiao Qing up and down to see if she was okay. Then, she grabbed Quan Zexi’s arms and inspected them.

Quan Zexi wasn’t used to being cared about like this and pulled her arms away, “I am fine! What are you looking at?!”

He Wanqing, “…”

Qiao Qing’s eyes got cold, “Dad!”

Quan Zexi was scared off right away and his tone weakened, “I’m fine! Look at how nervous she is! It’s like she thinks I’m incapable!”

Everyone else, “…”

Qiao Qing walked to the couch and sat down. She asked Quan Zexi, “So you have agreed to take over?”

Quan Zexi groaned, “My own daughter somehow controls an army that’s comparable to the royal army. As the father, I probably shouldn’t just do nothing and look weak.”

“Plus, even if I don’t take over, your identity as the God of Gun has been revealed. Yin Lei is highly skeptical and there’s no way he would ever trust me again. In other words, even if I don’t try to overtake him, he will think of all sorts of ways to get rid of me.”

Qiao Qing nodded, “Do you need my help?”

“No need,” Quan Zexi said, “Did you not see how much the people love me? You know I’m not so bad myself!”

Everyone rolled their eyes at that self-praise.

Qiao Qing continued, “What will you do next?”

Quan Zexi, “Call a meeting then an election.”

Qiao Qing nodded again, “Good luck.”

Quan Zexi’s mouth stretched into a smile.

Mu Jinghang took this opportunity to interrupt, “Uncle, once you take over and lead the country, can you grant me some people to look for my wife and kid?”

Quan Zexi appeared to be in much disdain, “You need to rely on someone else to find your wife and kid? Are you a man or not?”

Mu Jinghang, “…”

Why was his tongue so sharp?

Qiao Qing glanced at him, “Wu Sang is no longer in this city.”

Mu Jinghang froze, “How do you know that?”

Qiao Qing was expressionless, “I’m guessing.”

Mu Jinghang, “…”

After some time, he finally said, “I have to look regardless. There’s no way I’m giving up.”

He thought of something and his eyes brightened. Towards Qiao Qing, he asked…
