Sign In a Lu Bu Fengxian at the Beginning

,

Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Zhou Chen stretched himself.

Glancing at the pile of memorials that had already been processed beside him, he couldn't help but sighed.

The throne of the dragon chair is good, but so is the hard work that comes with it.

With as much power as you have, you have to bear as much responsibility and hard work.

This is true.

Just as Zhou Chen was sighing, the factory guard who was on duty outside the hall came in.

"Your Majesty, Governor Cao Shaoqin asks to see you."

The factory guard came in and said in a report.

"Let him in."

Zhou Chen said lightly.

The factory guard inside bowed and stepped back.

After a while, Cao Shaoqin stepped into the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Your Majesty, the King of Shu secretly went to the Prime Minister's Mansion last night."

"The minister is outside the prime minister's mansion, and I can feel a lot of hidden atmosphere in the prime minister's mansion."

"One of the hidden breaths made the minister feel a little dangerous."

After Cao Shaoqin walked in, he directly bowed and reported what he discovered last night.

"Oh!"

Zhou Chen was shocked when he heard this.

Zhou Zhi went to the prime minister's mansion secretly, Zhou Chen was not surprised.

To Zhou Chen's surprise, there was a lot of ambiguity in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

One of the hidden breaths actually made Cao Shaoqin feel a little danger.

You know, Cao Shaoqin is a master at the pinnacle of the great master, and his combat power is comparable to that of a half-step heavenly man.

If even Cao Shaoqin could feel the slightest danger, then this person with a hidden aura is definitely a master of half-step heaven and man.

And those who can make Cao Shaoqin feel the hidden atmosphere must not be ordinary people.

Could it be that the Yuan family's manpower has arrived?

Thinking of this, Zhou Chen looked at Cao Shaoqin; "Don't you have any definite news from Dongchang?"

"Is there any news from the factory guard in Runan?"

According to Zhou Chen's estimate, the dark atmosphere in the prime minister's mansion should be the arrival of the Yuan family.

Moreover, the ancestor of the half-step celestial being of the Yuan family should have also come.

Zhou Chen knew that the Yuan family had an ancestor who was a half-step celestial being, and this was also the biggest reason why the Yuan family was able to sit firmly at the head of the seven great families.

As for the whole Yuan family, Cao Shaoqin could feel dangerous, probably only the patriarch who was a half-step celestial being.

"Your Majesty, the strength of these hidden auras in the Prime Minister's Mansion is extraordinary, and there is no definite news from Dongchang."

"If these hidden auras in the Prime Minister's Mansion are really members of the Yuan family, then with the power of the Runan factory guards, it will be difficult to detect their accurate information."

Cao Shaoqin understood Zhou Chen's meaning and immediately explained.

When Zhou Chen heard the words, he also knew that what Cao Shaoqin said was reasonable.

The Yuan family in Runan is the head of the seven great families in the Great Zhou Dynasty. If these people from the Yuan family in Runan enter Luoyang secretly.

It was not so easy for Dongchang to find out the exact news.

What's more, the prime minister Yuan Bo has been operating in Luoyang for many years, and he is also the prime minister of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

Prime Minister Yuan Bo wanted to hide the Yuan family's whereabouts, and it was easy to cover Dongchang's eyes and ears.

If Prime Minister Yuan Bo couldn't even do this, then he would be too ashamed of Yuan Bo, the prime minister who is the head of all officials.

It seems that their plan is about to start.

Zhou Chen's eyes flickered for a moment, looked at Cao Shaoqin and continued to ask; "Is there any news?"

"Your Majesty, there has been no news of the factory guards sent by the Governor to Shu for three days."

"The minister guessed that something might have happened to them."

Earlier, Zhou Chen ordered Cao Zhengchun to send more factory guards to Shu to investigate everything about King Zhou Zhi of Shu.

But the factory guards sent to Sichuan have not heard from them for three days.

Therefore, Cao Shaoqin had no choice but to report to the emperor Zhou Chen, and guessed that something had happened to the factory guards sent to Shu.

Uh?

"No news for three days?"

Hearing this, Zhou Chen frowned.

Dongchang's news transmission does not rely solely on human couriers, but has a special messenger eagle.

Now there is no news from the factory guards sent to Shu for three days, which is enough to show that there is something wrong with the factory guards sent to Shu.

"It seems that my ninth younger brother has a lot of power in Shu, even the factory guards have fallen into the sand, gone forever."

Zhou Chen narrowed his eyes slightly, and said to Cao Shaoqin; "Immediately tell Jia Xu the news, tell Jia Xu, and I will leave the matter of Shu to him."

"For matters outside Luoyang, I leave it to him to make overall decisions."

"The outside staff of Dongchang and the counter-insurgency troops of Lu Bu and Zhang Liao are all at his disposal."

"I don't look at the process, I only want the result."

"If he can't satisfy me and something goes wrong, then there's no need for him to go back to Luoyang."

Zhou Chen's face turned cold.

Jia Xu has left Luoyang by order.

Zhou Chen's order to Jia Xu is that Jia Xu will be responsible for suppressing the forces outside the Yuan and Zheng families.

It was impossible for Zhou Chen to allow most of the Yuan and Zheng families to enter Luoyang.

Especially for private soldiers, it is even more impossible for Zhou Chen to allow them to gather and approach the five gates of Sili.

Therefore, Zhou Chen handed over the full power to Jia Xu.

Now, Zhou Chen also handed over the affairs of Shu to Jia Xu to handle.

Zhou Chen believed that with Jia Xu's reputation as a poisoner, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with these matters.

Jia Xu is also the most suitable candidate to deal with the power of the aristocratic family.

However, Jia Xu is too good at self-protection.

If Zhou Chen didn't put some pressure on Jia Xu, Jia Xu would not let go of it.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Cao Shaoqin bowed and said.

"besides."

"In the past few days, you go to watch the prime minister's mansion yourself."

"Now that the Yuan family's manpower has arrived, I estimate that the Zheng family's and Fan's' manpower should also be arriving soon."

Zhou Chen said again.

"The minister obeys the order."

Cao Shaoqin bowed again and said.

"Go!"

Zhou Chen waved his hand.

Cao Shaoqin withdrew from the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

After Cao Shaoqin left, Zhou Chen's eyes darkened.

"The Yuan family?"

"The Zheng family?"

"Hehe, I've been waiting for you."

Zhou Chen sneered again and again.

"And the Fan family."

"You think that if you break it up into parts and spread it out, you can escape the court's thunderbolt."

"Then, you will get out of your shell again, and gather in Luoyang quietly, and work with the other two families. No one can see through your schemes, can they?"

"I don't know, how can you hide this trick of yours from the few outstanding people around me."

"I have opened a big net, waiting for you to drill in."

Zhou Chen muttered to himself.

...

Shu Palace.

Council hall.

King Zhou Zhi of Shu looked at the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian who came in, and greeted him with a smile on his face; "Uncle Eight Emperors, what wind brought you here to my Palace of the King of Shu."

"You kid, you have also learned to tease your Eighth Emperor Uncle."

"It's been a few days since you came back from Sichuan, and I haven't seen you go to the Eighth Emperor's Uncle to see your Eighth Emperor's Uncle."

"Since you don't go to see your Eighth Emperor's Uncle, then your Eighth Emperor's Uncle can only come and see you in person."

The Eighth Sage King Zhou Xian walked into the meeting hall, and also said with a smile.

The two seem to be inseparable.

On the contrary, it is very casual and friendly.

"Uncle Eighth Emperor, you have wronged me."

"Originally, I planned to visit Uncle Eight Emperors, but my mother reminded me that Luoyang is not peaceful during this time, so I should stay away from going out."

"I also heard that the court has been in a strange situation recently, so I didn't go out for the time being."

"Thinking about it, wait a few days before going to visit the Eighth Emperor Uncle."

"Unexpectedly, Uncle Eighth Emperor came to my Shu Palace first."

Zhou Zhi said, and welcomed the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian into the hall.

Then, the two sat down facing each other.

"Your mother reminded you, it is indeed not peaceful inside and outside the court."

"If there is no need to do, try to go out as little as possible, and it is best not to visit those court officials."

"In order not to be accidentally involved."

After sitting down, Eight Sage King Zhou Xian said to Zhou Zhi.

"Uncle Eighth Emperor, why are you like my queen mother, telling me to go out less and not get involved with those court officials."

"You are not entrusted by my mother to come to watch me specially!"

Zhou Zhi looked at the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian, and said half-jokingly.

The Eighth Wise King, Zhou Xian, nodded noncommittally; "You really guessed right, your Eighth Emperor Uncle was entrusted by your mother to watch over you."

"Your mother's queen is also for your own good."

"You should also know what happened in the court in the past two months. Many people in our royal family were also involved."

"Even your Eighth Emperor Uncle almost..."

Speaking of this, the Eighth Sage King Zhou Xian did not continue, but sighed.

Although the Eighth Sage King Zhou Xian did not continue, Zhou Zhi understood why the Eighth Sage King Zhou Xian was sighing.

"Uncle Eight Emperors, I know everything about Jun Xian."

"I didn't expect that Jun Xian would be harmed because of Wu Ying, that demon girl. She really deserves to die."

Zhou Zhi said bitterly.

The Eighth Wise King Zhou Xian sighed again after hearing this; "Oh, maybe this is Jun Xian's fate, no one can blame him, only Jun Xian himself is not up to date."

"He chose the path himself, and he has to bear the consequences."

The expression on the face of the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian was a little off.

The matter of Zhou Junxian has always been an indelible scar to him.

This is his most outstanding son, but he lost it because of a woman. How helpless and sad it is.

It even almost implicated everyone in their lineage.

If it weren't for him, the Eight Sage Kings, he still has a little bit of fame and prestige.

Maybe, their lineage has been punished because of Zhou Junxian alone.

"Uncle Eight Emperors, what's not going to happen, in my opinion, it's that woman Wu Ying who killed him."

"Brother Huang, it's true. How can you say that Jun Xian is a once-in-a-century genius in my royal family, and I don't know how to make an exception."

"Who has never been confused."

"What's more, you have the face of Uncle Eight Emperor."

"If it were me, I would definitely be lenient with Junxian."

Zhou Zhi said with a complaining face.

This seemingly unintentional remark, in the ears of Eight Sage King Zhou Xian, made Eight Sage King Zhou Xian visibly stunned for a moment.

Eight Sage King Zhou Xian looked at Zhou Zhi with a serious face; "Xiao Jiu, don't say such things in the future."

"Although you and Your Majesty are both descendants of the Empress Dowager, in the eyes of the emperor, there are no family matters. Some things are taboo and cannot be touched."

"This is Uncle Eight Emperor's warning to you, and it is also Uncle Eight Emperor's warning to you as the head of the clan's mansion."

"Furthermore, Your Majesty has already shown mercy to your Eighth Emperor Uncle."

"Otherwise, do you think that your Eighth Emperor Uncle can come to see you at the Shu Palace?"

Eight Sage King Zhou Xian looked at Zhou Zhi and said very seriously.

What Zhou Zhi said just now has touched some taboos and offended.

This is what the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian heard.

If it was the factory guard of the East Factory who heard it, he might just pull out the crescent knife and take Zhou Zhi down.

Seeing the serious attitude of the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian, Zhou Zhi immediately stood up and bowed to the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian; "Uncle Eight Emperors, it is Xiao Jiu who has no excuses and made a slip of the tongue."

"Thank you, Uncle Eighth Emperor, for reminding me."

"In the future, Xiao Jiu will be cautious in his words and deeds."

Zhou Zhi said seriously.

The Eighth Wise King, Zhou Xian, waved his hands angrily; "Okay, what are you pretending to be with the Eighth Emperor Uncle?"

"Just keep it in mind from now on."

When Zhou Zhi heard this, he sat down with a smile again.

Then, the two chatted for a while, and the Eighth Sage King Zhou Xian got up to say goodbye and left the Shu Palace.

After the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian left, Zhou Zhi's face became ponderous, and his eyes flickered a little.

The taboo words that Zhou Zhi said just now were intended to test the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian.

It's a pity that Zhou Zhi didn't get the answer he wanted from the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian.

Zhou Zhi didn't know that Zhou Xian, the Eighth Sage King, didn't realize his intention of probing, or thought that he was just talking out loud and unintentionally.

If the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian realized it, it would be something bad.

Zhou Zhi thought secretly.

...

Outside the Shu Palace.

The Eight Sage King Zhou Xian also frowned tightly.

Zhou Xian, the Eighth Sage King, was a little uncertain about the taboo words that Zhou Zhi said just now.

Logically speaking, it is impossible for the princes who grew up in the palace to be princes without knowing the seriousness, let alone speak freely.

Especially with such sensitive and taboo words, it is impossible to say them easily.

But just now Zhou Zhi said the taboo words lightly, is this unintentional?

The eyes of the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian were a little erratic.

"No wonder the Empress Dowager called me into the palace and asked me to watch the King of Shu."

"It seems that the queen mother also saw something, so she didn't worry about King Shu, and asked me to take care of it."

The Eighth Wise King Zhou Xian was thinking secretly.

Zhou Zhi's probing words just now have already been seen by Eight Sage King Zhou Xian.

Too.

A person like the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian who stands in the court and is called a sage king by everyone.

If you don't have this ability, if you can't even see this point, then you probably don't know how many times you have been played to death.

How can he be praised as a virtuous king by everyone.

"Xiao Jiu, Xiao Jiu, I hope you can understand the painstaking efforts of the Queen Mother."

"Uncle Eight Emperors doesn't want you to follow in the footsteps of Jun Xian after Xiaoyao King Zhou Qian."

The Eighth Sage King Zhou Xian glanced back at the Shu Palace, and muttered to himself.

"Come on."

The Eighth Wise King, Zhou Xian, shouted.

"My lord."

A figure appeared beside the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian.

The Eighth Sage King Zhou Xian looked at this figure and said directly; "From now on, send people to pay more attention to the Shu Palace."

"If the King of Shu has any action, please notify me immediately."

Since the queen mother asked the eight sage king Zhou Xian to take care of Zhou Zhi, of course the eight sage king Zhou Xian had to do so.

During the time when King Zhou Zhi of Shu was in Luoyang, the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian could only spend more time watching Zhou Zhi of Shu.

I just hope that Zhou Zhi will not make any troubles, nothing really happens.

Otherwise, the empress dowager would not be the only one in trouble.

"Yes, my lord."

The figure responded and disappeared in front of the Eight Sage King Zhou Xian.

"Go back to the clan mansion."

The Eighth Sage King Zhou Xian got into a carriage and drove towards the clan mansion.

The Eight Sage King Zhou Xian didn't know, after he left.

In an inconspicuous corner outside the Prince Shu's mansion, there was a pair of eyes looking at his carriage all the time.
