Chapter 249
Zhen Yi looked at his son, then at his daughter, with a hint of anger on his handsome face, and coldly snorted: "Have you two discussed it?"

Zhen Qing's expression did not change and she said: "Father, my child has long been suspicious of King Ming's affairs. This is not the first time that my child has received news about King Ming. It's just that my sister in front of me has been practicing martial arts in Wusheng Mansion and has never come back. My child just It’s just to secretly collect information about Prince Ming. My second uncle is really rough in doing things.”

Zhen Yi snorted coldly: "Our Zhen family is just a businessman, and we should not interfere in the affairs of the world. If your sister had not been selected by the Martial Saint Mansion and became a disciple of the Martial Saint, what would happen today would have happened."

"Father, things have happened. I am a disciple of Martial Saint, and I am the future Crown Princess. This is a fact that cannot be changed. Father, you should wake up. Soon, the emperor's appointment edict will arrive, and you will be As the Minister of Rites of the imperial court, you will be recommended as Prime Minister in the near future." Zhen Mi looked cold.

"Ming Xiang? Are you crazy, or am I crazy? How many years has it been since the Ming Dynasty abolished the prime minister? When King Ming Wu was alive, he killed several prime ministers in succession. When he went to the Ming Dynasty, he was a dead man. King Ming abolished the prime minister, Can we set up a cabinet and let them set up a prime minister again?" Zhen Yi looked at his daughter with horrified eyes.

Of course he knew that the reason why Zhen Mi asked him to be Ming Xiang was to monitor King Ming.According to the rules of the Zhou Dynasty, the princes and kings are succeeded by their own people, but the ministers of each country must be appointed by the Emperor of Zhou.

Moreover, with the decline of the prestige of Emperor Zhou, the power of appointing and removing the prime minister has fallen into the hands of the major princes and kings.The power of Emperor Zhou was once again reduced.

"It is precisely because the position of Prime Minister has been abolished that we can reassign it. Otherwise, it would be really difficult to speak." Zhen Mi sneered: "Father, this is an order from the Emperor and the Martial Saint Palace. If King Ming really doesn't want to execute it, That would offend the Emperor and the Martial Saint Mansion. His martial arts are very high, but can he compare to the Martial Saint?"

The Martial Saint intimidates the world. The older you get, the stronger the deterrent force becomes. Who doesn't want to receive the dying blow of the Martial Saint, even if you have already become a Martial Saint.

There was a trace of thought on Zhen Yi's face.

"Father, although we are rich, no matter where we go, the world will think that we are just merchants, lowly merchants. In the eyes of the world, we are just a piece of fat meat that can be eaten by moving our hands." Zhen Qing squeezed tightly. fist.

Zhen Yi remained silent again. Doesn't his son's words make sense?It must make sense. The Zhen family has come to this day step by step and has accumulated a huge amount of wealth. I don’t know how many forces want to swallow it up, not least the Emperor Zhou.Isn't it just a move to marry your own daughter as the crown prince?But faced with this situation, he couldn't refuse. ,

Just like when Wu Sheng came to the door in person and accepted Zhen Mi as his disciple, maybe at that time, everything had been planned.By now, there was no way to refuse.

"Father, all this has been decided when I, the Zhen family, settled in Haojing. When my daughter entered the Martial Saint's Mansion and became a disciple of the Martial Saint, when my daughter advanced to Xiantian, it was already decided. Now we have only One way is to be a Ming Prime Minister according to the requirements of Wu Sheng. I believe that King Ming is a smart man, otherwise, he will not rent Yellow Crane Island and Tianma Pass."

Zhen Yi nodded, of course he knew that once he directly occupied it, it would be a violation of Emperor Zhou's order, and Emperor Zhou and Wusheng Palace could directly attack.

However, King Ming was very cunning and changed the occupation to a lease for 99 years. This left Emperor Zhou speechless.

Of course, this also reflects from another aspect that King Ming is still unable to resist the censure of Emperor Zhou, so Ming Xiang appears, and Zhen Yi, who was born as a merchant, is the most suitable candidate.

The prince's father, the head of the Zhen Rouge family, also had roots in the Ming Dynasty.When doing things, King Ming can also be cautious.Zhen Yi sighed, looked at a pair of children, and said: "Children have always pushed their fathers into the fire pit. Now I have seen it. If King Ming is so easy to deal with, he may also confuse the world. As soon as I enter the officialdom, Zhen's Rouge will be jealous of all the princes in the world, and Zhen's family will no longer be the Zhen's she used to be."

"Father, the Zhen family can only become more and more powerful, just watch!" Zhen Qing said solemnly: "Father, don't worry, I will accompany you to the Ming Dynasty this time. The Ming Dynasty is turbulent at the moment, Cihang Jingzhai and People from the Demon Sect have gathered in the capital of the Ming Dynasty, and the situation in Jinling City is changing, but I don’t know if we will have the chance to see it."

"Can you participate in a battle at the innate level?" Zhen Yi looked down on his son and couldn't help snorting.

In his opinion, Zhen Qing is not very capable and ambitious.Why Zhen Mi's martial arts qualifications were leaked was not the result of Zhen Qing's shouting. Zhen Qing's actions were not in line with Zhen's low-key style.

After Zhen Qing heard this, she immediately sneered and said: "I can hire someone if I don't have it! I, Zhen, want money and power now, so what does it matter if I recruit a few innate masters? Does anyone dare to object?" "

Zhen Qing is very proud. In front of her, Zhen is rich. Although she can recruit innate masters, she is worried that the innate masters will kill her. But now there is no need to worry. Her sister will be the crown prince of Dazhou and her father. It will be Mingxiang. In this case, who else dares to be rude to Zhen?Zhen Qing believes that this is the way for the Zhen family to grow stronger.

Zhen Yi has nothing to say. His eldest son and daughter have already agreed, especially since the leaders behind this matter are Wu Shengfu and Emperor Zhou. If they don't agree, they have no choice but to endure it.

"Father, the situation in the Ming Dynasty is changing three times a day. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince believes that the next move of the Ming King is the Song Dynasty. The battle between the two Song Dynasties will last for a long time. In the end, the Ming Dynasty will be chosen to break the situation. The Ming King is very ambitious. I'm worried He will take the opportunity to swallow up the two Song Dynasties. If so, things will not be good." Zhen Mi worried.

"No way! Is King Ming really that brave? Want to swallow up two Song dynasties?" Zhen Yi's expression changed after hearing this.

"If God doesn't take it, he will be punished. This is the opportunity given by God to King Ming. If King Ming doesn't take it, he will not be King Ming. My daughter guessed that he is most likely to take the Southern Song Dynasty. After all, Wang Chongyang attacked the Ming Dynasty, and he is now To counterattack the Southern Song Dynasty, even the emperor would not be able to say anything."

"You want me to stop King Ming from attacking the Southern Song Dynasty?" Zhen Yi hesitated: "I just went to Ming Dynasty. Is it appropriate to mention this matter? Will King Ming and those ministers agree?"

"There's nothing inappropriate. With the Emperor and Wushengfu blocking the way, King Ming doesn't dare to do anything to his father. How dare the civil and military officials of the dynasty dare to object?" Zhen Qing said nonchalantly.

Zhen Yi felt a wry smile in her heart and sighed: "After leaving today, I wonder if I will have the chance to return to Haojing someday."

He has no confidence in his future.
