Sign In a Lu Bu Fengxian at the Beginning

After retreating from the court.

Zhou Chen returned to the Yangxin Hall.

After sitting on the dragon throne, Zhou Chen glanced at Cao Zhengchun, who had been waiting beside him, and asked, "Has the decree been passed on?"

Cao Zhengchun immediately bowed and said, "Reporting to Your Majesty, I passed on the decree last night. It is estimated that all the border areas have received your Majesty's decree by now."

Cao Zhengchun knew that Zhou Chen was not asking about the order from the court just this morning, but the order issued to Dongchang and Sifang Border last night.

Last night, after Cao Zhengchun left the Yangxin Hall, he used Dongchang's letter eagle to convey his decree immediately.

Hearing this, Zhou Chen nodded; "Then you should prepare yourself and go to Lingnan first!"

"You don't need me to teach you how to do it, right?"

Zhou Chen glanced at Cao Zhengchun and said.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, I understand."

Cao Zhengchun bowed and said.

"Go!"

Zhou Chen waved his hand and said no more.

"Old slave, please retire."

Cao Zhengchun withdrew from Yangxin Hall.

After Cao Zhengchun left, Zhou Chen fell into deep thought.

Zhou Chen sent an order to the border troops from all directions to prepare for war. Zhou Chen was just in case.

Those who have joined the world have visited many aristocratic families and forces in various places. No one can guarantee how many of these families and forces will fall in favor of those who have joined the world like the Yingchuan Chen family and the other thirteen families.

Therefore, Zhou Chen must make arrangements in advance and be ready to mobilize troops.

If the imperial court arrests those who have joined the world, and those wealthy families do not respond, then nothing can be said.

But if, when the imperial court is arresting those who have joined the world, those wealthy families dare to make any changes or listen to those who have joined the world to fight against the court, then Zhou Chen will not hesitate to send out an army to wipe out these wealthy families together.

At this time, the chamberlain and factory guard came in and reported: "Your Majesty, the Eight Wise Kings are asking for an audience outside the palace."

"Xuan Ba ​​Xian Wang comes in."

Zhou Chen put away his thoughts and said to the house guard.

"According to the order."

The house guard and factory guard retreated.

soon.

The Eight Sages King Zhou Xian walked into the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart.

"I have met His Majesty."

The Eight Sages King Zhou Xian walked into the Yangxin Hall and said respectfully to Zhou Chen who was sitting on the dragon throne.

Zhou Chen raised his eyes and looked at the Eight Wise King Zhou Xian; "Uncle Eight Emperors came to the Yangxin Hall to see me, don't you still want to persuade me?"

Just after the morning court ended, the Eight Sages King Zhou Xian did not leave, but came directly to the Yangxin Hall.

Needless to say, this is probably because of those people who have joined the world.

Zhou Xian, the Eighth Sage King, gritted his teeth and cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, I do not object to your Majesty's dealing with those who are worldly."

"I was worried, so I beat the young one, and then the old one came."

"Once His Majesty captures these worldly people, the forces behind them will definitely not remain indifferent."

"When the time comes, I, Da Zhou, will have no chance of winning against those strong men in Tianshan."

"Even the main family will no longer protect our outside branch."

"I hope your Majesty will think twice."

The Eight Wise King Zhou Xian spoke sincerely, and Zhou Chen could tell that the Eight Wise King was really worried about the royal family.

"Uncle Eight Emperors, I understand what you mean."

"But Uncle Eight Emperors probably hasn't forgotten what happened more than 20 years ago! The master's family is unreliable."

"Uncle Eight Emperors, let's take a look at these first!"

Zhou Chen picked up some interrogation records next to the Long Case and handed them to the Eight Sages Wang Zhou Xian.

The confession that was shown to the officials in the morning was only part of it.

Zhou Chen deliberately concealed part of the information in the confession in order to avoid too much turmoil.

But now, Zhou Chen wants to show all this news to the Eighth Sage King Zhou Xian, so that the Eighth Sage King Zhouxian understands that things have reached a point where there is no way to ease.

Even if they don't take action against those who are in the world, their royal family will be annexed by the master's family and become pawns in the competition for those who are in the world.

After reading the news, the Eight Wise King Zhou Xian's expression suddenly changed: "Your Majesty, this..."

The Eight Sages King Zhou Xian glanced at Zhou Chen and didn't know what to say for a moment.

He did not expect that even the master's family would participate in this competition to carve up the secular world.

Then can he still be saved?

"Uncle Eight Emperors, now you should understand what kind of situation we are facing!"

Zhou Chen glanced at the Eight Wise King Zhou Xian and said.

"Actually, what Zuo Xiang said is right. Our territory of the Great Zhou Dynasty does not allow anyone to pry into it."

Zhou Chen's eyes flashed with fierceness.

Those who join the world regard the secular world as their place of competition. What do they regard the secular world as?

If you still want to divide the secular world, you have to ask him, the emperor of the secular world, if he will agree.

…

Langye.

Wang family.

In the meeting hall.

The head of the Wang family sat on the main seat.

Sitting below were two arrogant young men in brocade clothes.

One of the young men in brocade clothes looked at the head of the royal family on the throne and asked, "Chief of the royal family, how are your thoughts on the royal family?"

Another young man in golden clothes also glanced at the head of the Wang family and said, "The head of the Royal family won't tell us that your Wang family hasn't considered it yet!"

"We don't have much time for you, the royal family leader, to think about it."

"Okay, the royal family chief will give us a happy message today."

The head of the Wang family, who was in charge, smiled politely and said, "Two young masters, you also know that this matter is related to the rise and fall of our Wang family, and our Wang family has to be more cautious."

"Mr. Jiang, if my Wang family is willing to serve you, can Mr. Jiang guarantee the absolute safety of my Wang family?"

The head of the Wang family looked at the young man in brocade who spoke first.

If you want him to serve the Wang family, you must first ensure the absolute safety of the Wang family when facing the court.

If the most basic safety of the Wang family cannot be guaranteed, then what reason does the Wang family have to work for them.

The young man in brocade clothes, Mr. Jiang, looked at the head of the royal family on the throne and said, "On this point, the heads of the royal family can rest assured."

"Since your Wang family is working for us, then your Wang family is ours. If your Wang family encounters a crisis, we will not stand idly by."

Speaking of this, the young man in rich clothes, Mr. Jiang, changed the topic again: "Of course, this matter mainly depends on you, the Wang family. Under normal circumstances, we will not take action against secular people easily."

"However, we will give you some benefits to the Wang family, so that the strength of some of your Wang family members can reach a higher level. It is not a problem to have a few Half-Step Heavenly beings appear."

"I believe that in this mortal world, if your Wang family has a few half-step heavenly beings, under normal circumstances, there will be no problem in protecting yourself."

When the head of the Wang family heard what Mr. Jiang said, a hint of joy flashed deep in his eyes.

The reason why the Langxie Wang family is not as good as the four great clans and is afraid of the imperial court is that one of the important reasons is that the Wang family lacks strong men who are half-step heavenly beings to take charge.

If his Wang family also has a half-step heavenly being, then the overall strength of his Langxie Wang family will reach a new level.

By then, even if the Langxie Wang family is not as good as the four great clans, they will have the confidence to sit at the same table as the four great clans.

"Young Master Jiang, if a member of the royal family wants to deal with my Wang family, and wants to destroy my Wang family at all costs, will Young Master Jiang be able to protect my Wang family?"

The head of the Wang family suppressed the joy in his heart and continued to ask.

Hearing this, the young man from Mr. Jiang smiled calmly; "The royal family leader is worried that when we face those worldly people of the royal family and give some benefits, we will abandon your royal family like abandoned sons!"

The head of the Wang family smiled awkwardly without comment.

That did worry him.

As the saying goes, there are no eternal enemies in the world, only eternal interests.

As long as the benefits are sufficient, there is nothing that cannot be given up.

As the head of a first-class wealthy family, the head of the Wang family knows this very well.

The royal family's worldly people, as well as Mr. Jiang, are all worldly people from Tianshan.

No one knows if there is any intersection behind them.

And his Langxie Wang family is just one of the chess pieces.

At that time, if the royal family members give some benefits to Mr. Jiang and others in order to destroy the Wang family, it is not impossible that Mr. Jiang and the others will abandon the Wang family like chess pieces.

"The royal family leader can rest assured that this secular competition has a lot to do with it. As long as the royal family leader serves us wholeheartedly, the royal family leader does not have to worry about the rest."

"Whether it's a worldly person from the royal family or a worldly person from the four great clans, as long as we are here, we can't touch your Wang family."

This young man in rich clothes, Mr. Jiang, saw the thoughts of the head of the Wang family and directly gave the head of the Wang family a clear guarantee.

Hearing this, the head of the Wang family relaxed; "That's good."

Although the head of the Wang family said this on the surface, he did not take Mr. Jiang's words seriously in his heart.

As an old fox from an aristocratic family who has been up and down for decades, the head of the Wang family understands better than anyone else that the so-called guarantee is nothing but a piece of paper.

In the face of absolute interests and reality, any guarantee is vulnerable.

But now, the Langxie Wang family is also on the line and has to make a choice.

"So, the royal family leader has agreed to serve us?"

The young man surnamed Jiang looked at the head of the royal family on the throne.

at this time.

There was a commotion outside the hall.

A steward hurriedly walked into the meeting hall.

"Sir, Cao Shaoqin is here with the factory guards and hundreds of divine guards."

"Looking at their aggressive appearance, it seems they have come with bad intentions."

The butler said hurriedly after entering the meeting hall.

What?

The face of the head of the Wang family changed.

At this time, why did Cao Shaoqin bring the factory guards to Wang's house?

He also brought hundreds of divine warriors with him.

The head of the Wang family frowned and looked at the two young men in brocade clothes. "Mr. Jiang, you heard it too. This Cao Shaoqin came to my Wang family with the factory guards. I have to go and see what this Cao Shaoqin wants to do first."

"We'll talk about our business later."

The head of the Wang family said and already stood up.

"Chief of the Royal Family, let's come together!"

"We also want to see what kind of person Cao Shaoqin, the second governor of Dongchang, is."

The two young men in brocade clothes also stood up.

The head of the Wang family originally wanted to avoid these two young men in brocade clothes.

But seeing that the two young men in brocade clothes seemed to have no intention of avoiding them, the head of the Wang family hesitated for a moment and did not speak.

Afterwards, the three of them walked out of the meeting hall together.

…

now.

The entrance to the Wang family's residence.

Flying eagle suit.

Crescent knife.

Jade belt.

Hundreds of factory guards stood grimly, standing on the left and right.

Behind them are hundreds of divine warriors, ready to attack.

Cao Shaoqin stood in front, silent.

Cao Shaoqin just received a secret order from Luoyang.

Therefore, Cao Shaoqin came directly to the Wang family with his troops without saying a word.

"What kind of wind brought Governor Cao to my Wang family today? It really made my Wang family's family shine!"

"I don't know why Governor Cao brought so many people to my Wang family. What's the point?"

The head of the Wang family came out and looked at Cao Shaoqin politely.

As the head of the Wang family, a first-class family, being able to come out to greet Cao Shaoqin in person, the head of the Wang family gave Cao Shaoqin enough face.

"Chief of the Royal Family, if you have too much to say, I, the governor, will not say any more."

"Your Majesty has a decree."

Cao Shaoqin said loudly without any nonsense.

"The rich and powerful families in the world are not allowed to come into contact with the worldly people, have any contact with the worldly people, and are not allowed to help the worldly people do anything. All the worldly people must go to Luoyang Dongchang to note their identities within three days..."

After listening to Cao Shaoqin's words, the face of the head of the Wang family couldn't help but change.

The head of the royal family did not expect that the imperial court would not allow wealthy families to have contact with people who were worldly.

The two young men in brocade clothes who followed the head of the Wang family also narrowed their eyes slightly, with a disdainful sneer on their lips.

A mere will.

Is it possible to stop these worldly forces from relying on worldly people like them?

It is even more ridiculous to want people like them who have joined the world to note their identities and abide by the regulations of the Great Zhou Dynasty.

The two young men in golden clothes didn't know whether this decree was the means of the worldly people in the royal family. If it was the means of the worldly people in the royal family, it would be too childish.

It is simply impossible to use this move to tie the hands and feet of worldly people like them.

Until now, other people who have joined the world do not know that the people who have joined the world of the royal family have long been prisoners and were locked up in the Dongchang Prison.

After conveying the emperor's decree, Cao Shaoqin looked at the head of the Wang family and said, "Chief Wang, you have heard your Majesty's will."

"Those who dare to disobey the will will be punished as traitors."

"Similarly, if all the people who join the world do not go to Luoyang to report their identities within three days, they will all be identified as traitors and be directly surrounded and killed."

At the end of his speech, a hint of coldness flashed across Cao Shaoqin's face.

"Director Cao, your Majesty's will is too overwhelming!"

"Does His Majesty still want to interfere with the freedom of wealthy families like us?"

The head of the Wang family looked at Cao Zhengchun with some dissatisfaction and said.

The emperor first abolished the privileges of the wealthy families, and then took back the private soldiers of the wealthy families. Now he asked the wealthy families not to have contact with people who have joined the world.

This is short of directly imprisoning a wealthy family.

"so."

"The royal family chief has objections to His Majesty's decree."

Cao Shaoqin's face turned cold.

He slapped the patriarch of the Wang family with a palm.

"puff."

Before the head of the Wang family could react, he was slapped away by Cao Shaoqin.

After the head of the Wang family fell to the ground, he opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Cao Shaoqin looked at the head of the Wang family who fell to the ground and said softly: "This is the consequences of daring to disagree with His Majesty's will. Chief of the Royal family, this is a warning from my governor. If it happens again, it won't be like this with a slap." It’s easy, but your Langxie family will completely disappear from the Great Zhou Dynasty.”

Cao Shaoqin's cold gaze made the head of the Wang family feel chilly.

The head of the Wang family has no doubt that if he dares to speak again and has objections to the imperial edict, Cao Shaoqin will directly kill his Langxie Wang family.
