Chapter 411 Underestimated Him

　　"Speak." Zhang Zhiyao narrowed his eyes slightly and said indifferently.

　　He remembered that this woman was also brought back from outside by Zhang Dong.

　　Ma Tingting secretly swallowed her saliva, and then said righteously: "As far as I know, General Liang Cheng has been partial to his own interests and perverted the law. He regards the Hubei Army as his own possession. This behavior has already betrayed Your Majesty and the court! Please take this opportunity to write a letter to Your Majesty about Liang Cheng's evidence of guilt. With this matter, Liang Cheng will definitely not escape punishment!"

　　She thought she had guessed Zhang Zhiyao's thoughts, and looked at Zhang Zhiyao with more and more confidence as she spoke.

　　"Heh," Zhang Zhiyao chuckled, but unfortunately his smile didn't reach his eyes. "How did you know that the general was partial and perverted the law? And how did you know that he thought the Hubei Army was in his pocket?"

　　Ma Tingting lowered her eyes, her eyeballs moved, and soon she looked up at him and said, "To be honest, sir, I was born in an official family. Later, because I committed a crime, my father and brother were exiled to northern Hubei."

　　She exaggerated her experience and made up a bunch of nonsense. At the end, she wiped her tears and said, "If Liang Cheng hadn't been so partial to the Shen family, how could I have fallen into prostitution? I don't accept it!"

　　Ma Tingting's mind raced, she had already arranged a retreat and could escape from the prefectural government at any time. This set of rhetoric only deepened Zhang Zhiyao's determination to overthrow Liang Cheng.

　　Zhang Zhiyao looked at her with a half-smile. Before Ma Tingting could figure out what he was thinking, she saw Zhang Zhiyao shouting outside the door: "Come here, lock up this woman who is so audacious as to slander the general. When I have time, I will send her to the general."

　　Does this woman in front of me think that all men in the world are fools?

　　From the moment she came in and began to plead for Zhang Dong in a halfhearted manner, Zhang Zhiyao never took a liking to her.

　　After that, she deliberately tried to make him oppose Liang Cheng, and even made up a high-sounding reason that made him very disgusted.

　　He admitted that ever since he was sent to northern Hubei, everyone in Dajin thought that he and Liang Cheng were sworn enemies who were not on good terms with each other.

　　However, everyone underestimated him, Zhang Zhiyao.

　　"What? Sir, did you not hear clearly? What I said was..." Ma Tingting panicked and quickly opened her mouth to explain.

　　But Zhang Zhiyao didn't even look at her. He waved his hand and asked the servants to drag her away.

　　Ma Tingting's shouting soon disappeared, and Zhang Zhiyao's anger towards Zhang Dong subsided a little after being interrupted by her.

　　"Did you see that? This is the woman you brought back!" Zhang Zhiyao pointed at Zhang Dong and said angrily, "The last time you fell in love with the granddaughter of Master Shen, I thought you had changed your ways, but I didn't expect your taste is still so poor!"

　　Zhang Dong said aggrievedly: "Isn't it because Miss Shen Liu doesn't like me?"

　　"You're idle all day long, and you still want a girl from a good family to fall in love with you?" Zhang Zhiyao was so angry that he almost laughed, "Go back to the recruit camp! When can you come down from the battlefield unscathed? When will I acknowledge that I have a son like you!"
