Chapter 1226 Defeat

• Since that moment, Lufeng had been restless all day. He always felt the need to have his bodyguards accompany him whenever he went out. Why? Because he was afraid that Zhenbei would discover his actions and retaliate deliberately.
• But now, Lufeng could finally venture out openly. The threat had been eliminated, allowing him the freedom to even consider not cooperating with the Tokugawa family and profiting from the gray industrial chains. By removing a major enemy for the Beigong family, he paved the way for their rise to power. Once the Beigong family ascended, the Lu family would make their way to Bianjing, bringing success within reach.
• The more Lufeng pondered this, the more exhilarated he felt. With proper management, he could even envision himself as the Grand Chancellor of Daya in the future. This was the realization of his long-held dreams, and today marked the beginning of it all.
