The Palace of the King of Shu.

in the study.

Zhou Zhi sat behind the desk, looked at a small note in his hand, frowned slightly and remained silent.

In front of the desk stood the butler of the palace respectfully.

The housekeeper of the palace was the **** who accompanied Zhou Zhi all the time when he was the prince, and he could be said to be the person Zhou Zhi trusted the most.

If Ji Wusheng was Zhou Zhi's trusted think tank, then the housekeeper of the palace was the confidant who Zhou Zhi could entrust everything to.

"My lord, this Ji Wusheng quietly met Yuan Ziming late at night. I'm afraid this Ji Wusheng is someone the Yuan family arranged for the prince, so it's better to be direct..."

The butler said and made a throat slit.

This means, everyone can understand.

Zhou Zhi let go of his slightly frowning brows, and looked at the housekeeper with a light smile; "Sande, killing someone is the most inferior method for some things. Don't always think about using this method to solve problems."

"Whether Ji Wusheng is someone the Yuan family arranged for this king, this question remains to be discussed."

"We have also checked the details of Ji Wusheng, and we know that he is a student of the Yuan family."

"As a student of the Yuan family, it is normal to go to see the eldest son of the Yuan family."

Zhou Zhi put down the note in his hand.

What was written on the note was the words 'Ji Wusheng met Yuan Ziming late at night'.

Perhaps, Yuan Ziming and the three of them could not have imagined that although they had left the Palace of Shu, they had always been under the surveillance of the Palace of Shu.

Therefore, Ji Wusheng quietly went to meet Yuan Ziming late at night, and he did not hide from Zhou Zhi's eyes.

"But the lord, Ji Wusheng never told the lord that he was a student of the Yuan family."

"Also, Ji Wusheng secretly went to meet Yuan Ziming late at night behind his back, this..."

Before the housekeeper could finish speaking, Zhou Zhi interrupted the housekeeper directly.

"Sande, this king knows what you mean."

"King Wusheng is a person with great talents. If you want to use such great talents, you can't look at it with the eyes of 'black and white'."

"Even if Ji Wusheng is someone the Yuan family arranged for this king, so what?"

"As long as Ji Wusheng can serve the king and be useful to the king, then the king will dare to use him."

"Besides, who doesn't have a secret of their own!"

Zhou Zhi was not surprised that Ji Wusheng was a student of the Yuan family and went to see Yuan Ziming quietly late at night.

As the king of Shu, Zhou Zhi, how could he not find out the details of the people around him!

Therefore, Zhou Zhi already knew that Ji Wusheng was a disciple of the Yuan family.

Ji Wusheng didn't say it, and Zhou Zhiquan didn't know.

From Zhou Zhi's point of view, Ji Wusheng was either a student of the Yuan family or someone the Yuan family arranged for him.

None of this matters.

The important thing is that Ji Wusheng is useful to him and can solve many problems for him. That's enough.

When the butler heard Zhou Zhi say this, he no longer talked about the matter of no life. Instead, he looked at Zhou Zhi with a serious face and said, "My lord, these three great families obviously have bad intentions and want to drag the lord into the water."

"Why is your lord still..."

The housekeeper did not continue, but looked at Zhou Zhi with a puzzled expression.

The housekeeper did not believe that Zhou Zhi could not see the purpose of Yuan Ziming and the three of them, but Zhou Zhi still did not directly refuse.

This made the butler very puzzled.

"Why didn't you reject the three of them?"

Zhou Zhi smiled helplessly.

"This king, like them, has no choice."

"If this king and them are united, both will benefit, and if they are divided, both will die."

"Those things in the palace, this king's elder brother even checked out the fourth child, and no one knows what else he has found out."

"There is no turning back arrow when opening a bow."

"Everyone underestimated him."

Zhou Zhi sighed faintly.

Rather than saying that Yuan Ziming and the three of them used the position of ninety-five to hang Zhou Zhi, it would be better to say that Zhou Zhi himself borrowed a donkey and took the opportunity to hang Yuan Ziming and his wealthy family.

If Yuan Ziming and the three of them knew, it was not that they had plotted against Zhou Zhi, but that Zhou Zhi took the opportunity to hit it off with them.

I don't know how Yuan Ziming and the others will feel.

"Your Majesty, even if Your Majesty finds out something, with the Queen Mother here, His Majesty should not kill your Majesty."

"But once the prince and the family take this step again, there is really no turning back."

The housekeeper said to Zhou Zhi with a solemn expression.

As Zhou Zhi's close attendant and confidant, the housekeeper is very clear about what Zhou Zhi has done.

In the previous matter, with the Queen Mother, the person in the palace looked at the Buddha's face even if it was unbearable, so that he would not kill him.

But if this step is taken, it will be difficult to say.

After Zhou Zhi heard the housekeeper's words, he looked at the housekeeper with a smile; "Sandezi, now you are the only one who can tell the truth to this king."

"Since this king was very young, you have been serving this king."

"This king knows that you care about this king, but you are the most ruthless imperial family."

"You also came out of the palace, you should understand this."

"Besides, this king is not reconciled. He is the most mediocre among our princes, and he is still a sick child."

"In the end, he took that seat."

"This king is very unwilling."

"That position should belong to this king."

In the end, Zhou Zhi exuded a strong hostility, and his face was full of unwillingness.

Seeing Zhou Zhi's state, the housekeeper next to him opened his mouth to say something, but in the end he could only sigh silently.

I don't know if this is a curse or a blessing?

...

Luoyang.

Royal Palace.

Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Zhou Chen squinted slightly for half an hour.

The emperor is not so easy to be.

Especially now that so many big things have happened recently.

Zhou Chen not only has to deal with the memorabilia like mountains and seas every day.

I also have to deal with those cunning and cunning civil and military officials in the court.

If it wasn't for Zhou Chen's cultivation of the Son of Heaven Conferring God Technique, his strength increased rapidly, and his body continued to grow stronger, I'm afraid he would have been overwhelmed long ago.

Even so, Zhou Chen felt a little tired every day.

This is still under the circumstance that Du Ruhui helped him share some government affairs.

If it wasn't for Du Ruhui to share the burden for him, Zhou Chen probably wouldn't even have a bit of free time.

Zhou Chen finally understood how those drowsy monarchs in history came to be.

It's not that they want to be a stupefied king, to be touched on the spine, and to be stinky for thousands of years.

But they can not be Mingjun.

Awakening to be in control of the world, drunk and lying on the knees of a beauty, this is the most corrosive thing to people's hearts.

In the face of the exhausting and exhausting government affairs, how many people can escape the emperor's drunkenness!

After Zhou Chen woke up, he was ready to continue dealing with government affairs.

At this time, Cao Zhengchun walked in quickly.

"Your Majesty, General Lu and Cao Shaoqin have already wiped out the forces of the Shenquan Sect that were involved in the death of the Taishi."

"This is the news from the factory guard."

"Please take a look at the emperor."

Cao Zhengchun sent two news letters to Zhou Chen.

Zhou Chen took two news letters from Cao Zhengchun's hands, opened them one by one, and glanced at them.

Zhou Chen is not very interested in exterminating these forces on the rivers and lakes.

From Zhou Chen's point of view, no matter how much the rivers and lakes jump, they will not be able to turn over the palm of the court.

Since ancient times, what kind of waves can the Jianghu forces of which dynasty and generation be in the hands of the imperial court?

If it weren't for these people on the rivers and lakes dare to provoke him, Zhou Chen would not have shot at the rivers and lakes at this time.

Because Zhou Chen hadn't even dealt with the internal affairs of the court, so he didn't have any extra time to pay attention to the forces of the rivers and lakes.

After reading the two pieces of news about the annihilation of the forces of the gods, Zhou Chen pondered.

Zhou Chen was considering whether to take this opportunity to completely rectify the forces of the rivers and lakes.

Let the powers of the rivers and lakes understand that wherever the court orders go, even the rivers and lakes abide by them.

There are no exceptions.

at this time.

A factory guard came in.

"Your Majesty, Li Shangshu, Minister of War, asks to see you."

After the factory guard came in, he bowed to report.

"Oh!"

"Let him in."

Zhou Chen raised his eyebrows and put away his thoughts.

Thinking that the Minister of War had something important to do, he came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The factory guard bowed and stepped back.

After a while, the Minister of War entered the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

"The old minister has seen His Majesty." After entering the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the Minister of War made a monarch and minister salute to Zhou Chen on the dragon chair.

"Li Aiqing, don't be too polite."

Zhou Chen put down the two news letters in his hand and looked up at the Minister of War; "Is there something important for Li Aiqing to come to see me in the Hall of Mental Cultivation?"

Since the last time the Minister of the Ministry of War took the response from the two Marquis of the border to take the initiative to visit the Hall of Mental Cultivation, the Minister of the Ministry of War has not taken the initiative to visit the Hall of Mental Cultivation again.

Today, the Minister of War took the initiative to visit the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Zhou Chen estimated that the Minister of War should have something important to ask him to see as the emperor.

"His Majesty."

"Because the national treasury was empty, the border gate's military salaries this year have not been issued."

"Just now, the memorial to the Marquis of Zhenbei and Marquis of Xiliang has been sent to the old minister."

"Please, Your Majesty, take a look."

As the Minister of War said, he took out two memorials from his sleeve and handed them over.

The memorials of the Marquis of Zhenbei and the Marquis of Xiliang for urging pay?

Zhou Chen's eyes flickered, and he took the two memorials handed over by the Minister of War from Cao Zhengchun's hand.

Open and glance.

"Ha ha."

"Payment?"

After Zhou Chen glanced at the contents of the two memorials, he sneered and threw them on the dragon case.

Before, Zhou Chen, the emperor, ordered the two Marquis of Beibei and Marquis of Xiliang to be sent to the south to quell the rebellion in the four northern states.

As a result, the Marquis of Zhenbei and Marquis of Xiliang prevaricate the emperor's will on the grounds that border defenses are the most important and aliens invade the border.

Are you still thinking about urging the court to pay?

Zhou Chen tapped the dragon case with his fingers, his eyes deep and silent.

The following ministers of the Ministry of War saw Zhou Chen sneer, and threw aside the memorial of the Duke of Zhenbei and the Duke of Xiliang to urge the pay, and his heart was beating.

If it were changed to the previous one, the Minister of War would not have made a special trip to the Hall of Mental Cultivation for such a payment reminder.

But since the last time when the Marquis of Zhenbei and the Marquis of Xiliang blocked the imperial decree, the Minister of War knew that the one on the dragon chair might have some ideas about those two Marquis.

Therefore, the Minister of War had no choice but to enter the palace as soon as he received the payment reminder from the Marquis of Zhenbei and Marquis of Xiliang, and came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation for instructions.

After a moment of silence, Zhou Chen raised his head and looked at the Minister of War; "The payment reminder for the customs here will be pressed for a few days, and then we will talk about it in a few days."

Now, the Ministry of Household's treasury is full, and Zhou Chen's internal treasury is also full.

The family seized and exterminated the properties of so many officials, whether it was officials in the imperial court in Luoyang, or a wealthy family in the four northern states, or the Boling Cui family, one of the seven aristocratic families in the Great Zhou Dynasty.

A lot of money was confiscated.

It can be said that Zhou Chen, the emperor, is not short of money now.

But even if Zhou Chen is not short of money, he will not use it to support a group of border generals who listen to the announcement and not listen to the tune.

Zhou Chen has to think about how to deal with the border guards, the Marquis of Zhenbei and Marquis of Xiliang, who are not listening.

Now that the rebellion in the four northern states has been quelled, the Boling Cui family has also been wiped out.

Originally, Zhou Chen's next thought was to first clean up the courtroom and move the border.

But now that the payment reminder from the border has been sent, Zhou Chen doesn't want to feed these unfamiliar white-eyed wolves for no reason.

After hearing Zhou Chen's words, the Minister of Military Affairs hesitated for a while and said, "Your Majesty, this military payment is a major event that cannot be ignored in all dynasties."

"If there is no military pay, the frontier army will have a big problem."

"At that time, if the army is in chaos, it will be troublesome."

The Minister of War was afraid that Zhou Chen, the emperor, was young and vigorous, because the Marquis of Zhenbei and Marquis of Xiliang did not obey the order before, and they would cut off the military pay at the border.

Therefore, the Minister of War had to remind Zhou Chen carefully.

If you cut off the military pay at the border, the army at the border will be in chaos.

Aliens outside the customs will definitely take the opportunity to enter.

If that's the case, then it's not just the chaos of the frontier army, but also the entry of aliens.

At that point, it would be a real problem.

Zhou Chen naturally heard the meaning of the Minister of War, Zhou Chen calmly glanced at the Minister of War; "I understand what Li Aiqing means."

"I have a number in my mind."

"No matter how long the border has been short of pay, there is no problem, not less than a few days."

Zhou Chen looked at the Minister of War and said lightly.

When the Minister of War heard the words, he immediately bowed and said, "This minister has been thinking too much. Since His Majesty has already thought about it in his heart, then the minister will not say more."

"The minister has retired first."

Those who should report have been reported, and those who should be reminded have also been reminded.

Since His Majesty Zhou Chen has made a decision in his heart, the Minister of War will not say anything more.

Anyway, this kind of decision-making power is no longer in the hands of the Minister of War, but in the hands of His Majesty on the Dragon Chair.

Zhou Chen waved his hand.

Then, the Minister of War withdrew from the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

After the Minister of War left, Zhou Chen pondered for a while, glanced at the two news letters that had wiped out the forces of the Shenquan Sect, and shook his head.

Originally, Zhou Chen was still considering whether to take the opportunity to take action and rectify the rivers and lakes.

But now it seems impossible.

Remediating the rivers and lakes is not something that can be accomplished in a day or two, even longer than the time it takes to quell the rebellion in the four northern states.

Zhou Chen didn't spend much time on the rivers and lakes now.

Compared with the affairs on the rivers and lakes ~www.readwn.com~ the border affairs and the court affairs are the most important.

However, there is no time to rectify the rivers and lakes for the time being, which does not mean that the voice of the imperial court cannot be issued to the rivers and lakes.

Thinking of this, Zhou Chen glanced at Cao Zhengchun next to him and said, "Cao Zhengchun, although the forces of the Shenquan Sect related to the death of the Taishi have been wiped out."

"However, other Jianghu forces must also let them know that the prestige of the imperial court cannot be violated."

"In the world of Da Zhou, no one can surpass the order of the imperial court."

"How to do it, I don't need to teach you!"

Zhou Chen looked at Cao Zhengchun.

Cao Zhengchun immediately bowed and said, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, this old slave understands."

"This old slave will send a letter to Cao Shaoqin and the others."
