Chapter 0957: Close Relationship
"It's always not good." Qin Chu said.
"Don't think so much, ordinary people can't have this idea. In addition, this bamboo forest is arranged with a formation. Even if you are an emperor, you can't detect the situation in the bamboo forest. You can come and go as you like!" The queen's breath stabilized a little, and she was no longer excited.
"How is the emperor?" Qin Chu asked.
Hearing Qin Chu mention Emperor Zhou Lu, the queen snorted coldly, "He dispersed his cultivation and saved his life, but he also fell into depravity, because the dark energy destroyed his dignity as a man. He spent his days drinking. It can be said that he is the most failed emperor in the history of the Great Zhou Dynasty."
"Now the Great Zhou Dynasty is in a special period. The Tianlei Dynasty is attacking, and there are some fluctuations inside. It is indeed not appropriate for him to be like this now." Qin Chu also shook his head. .
"Let's not talk about his problems. Let Yuanxing go to the border to train. This is a good decision. Regardless of whether he can be an emperor in the future, a man cannot lack wildness and domineering in his bones." The queen made a decision because she thought of Zhou Yuanshuo's strength. Why is Zhou Yuanshuo strong? It is trained at the border, and only after seeing life and death many times can one be fearless of life and death.
Qin Chu and Empress Wu drank tea and chatted casually. Empress Wu told Qin Chu that now the various princes and the ambitious Princess Zhou Yuanqing have begun to act. Zhou Yuanlong even began to show his strength and began to speak out during the morning meeting in the court; Zhou Yuanzhen established a team because the Great Zhou Dynasty was unstable. The members of the team were mainly members of the Feixian Palace, and some other practitioners were also strong.
"It's useless for them to do this, right?" Qin Chu frowned.
"It's not useless. At least it can prove your ability. The emperor is not good now and has no interest in government affairs, but there is still the previous emperor. He can see the strength of each prince. The selection of the crown prince will naturally choose the strong one. Later, they will try to win you over. Because the royal family has not suppressed you for such a long time, they are basically sure that the Emperor Wu and this palace can tolerate you, so they will naturally try to win you over. If they fail to win you over, they will threaten you and take action against you, removing a helper from Yuan Shuo and Yuan Xing. In short, you have to be careful." The queen reminded Qin Chu.
After thinking for a while, Qin Chu told the queen about his agreement with the Great Zhou Dynasty. If the royal family members provoke him, he can attack.
"Okay! You can handle it yourself. When the problem comes to this palace, I will suppress it if I can." The queen nodded at Qin Chu. She was also surprised in her heart, surprised that Emperor Wu Zhou Zhentian could make such a decision.
Qin Chu said nothing more. Since the queen had reminded him, he had to be careful. He would not provoke anyone, but he would not be polite to anyone who provoked him. The agreement between him and Emperor Wu was clear. He would not take the initiative to harm the royal family of the Great Zhou Dynasty, but he would not be polite to anyone who provoked him.
Qin Chu left. When he left the bamboo forest, he saw Ling Su walking into the bamboo forest.
As if he had not seen it, Qin Chu and Ling Su passed by each other, and Ling Su's eyes were full of surprise, because it was night, and Qin Chu and a man came out of the queen's residence at night, which explained some problems, at least they had a close relationship.
Entering the bamboo forest and seeing the queen, Ling Su knelt down to report some of Zhou Yuanzhen's situation to the queen. She was now a double-sided spy, working for the queen, but Zhou Yuanzhen thought that she was around the queen to get information for her. What Zhou Yuanzhen didn't know was that the information Ling Su passed to him was all allowed by the queen.
"Did Zhou Yuanzhen do anything?" Queen Wu asked.
"Yes, Zhou Yuanzhen and Feixian Palace and some small sects have reached some agreements. Feixian Palace and others fully support him to take the throne. After Zhou Yuanzhen takes the throne, they will support Feixian Palace to become the first sect in this area. In addition, Yuan Haolan of their Yuanhao family will become the queen. As for other small sects, they have also promised some benefits." Ling Su reported Zhou Yuanzhen's situation.
"Let the woman of Feixian Palace become the queen... Then you, Ling Su, can't get along well in Prince Yuanzhen's mansion?" The queen looked at Ling Su and was a little dissatisfied with Ling Su's performance.
"Zhou Yuanzhen is a ruthless character. He told me that he must abide by the agreement. After he succeeds, Yuan Haolan will become the queen, but he has the final say on how long she can live. In his opinion, a deal is a deal. As long as he becomes the emperor, he still has the final say on everything." Finding the queen's dissatisfaction, Ling Su's face showed fear. The last time she took the initiative to hook up with Qin Chu, she suffered a lot.
"The queen is a deal... You go down!" Queen Wu waved her hand.
Ling Su left, and Empress Wu sighed. Zhou Yuanzhen's deal with Feixian Palace for the position of empress made her think of herself. Wasn't her becoming the empress also a deal?
When Qin Chu returned to the mansion, Shi Qingfei and Shi Qingyan were drinking tea and chatting.
"Brother-in-law, your secret treasure is too powerful. It has a strong effect in assisting cultivation. You can't take it back at will." Shi Qingyan looked at Qin Chu and said.
"If there is no special need for combat, the Burial Heaven Coffin will be placed in the mansion. Change it to a suitable location later. Don't put it where I live." Qin Chu felt that Shi Qingyan would also enter the Burial Heaven Coffin to practice, and it would be inappropriate to put the Burial Heaven Coffin in the attic where he lived.
"Then put it in the viewing building by the lake." Shi Qingfei said.
"In addition, the public opinion attacks some time ago have passed. Some people see that we have not fallen in public opinion, and they will come to win us over. Our attitude is not to accept any winning over, nor to offend anyone. If there is anything, just push it to me, saying that I am not here, or in seclusion, and avoid it all." Qin Chu reminded Shi Qingfei.
In fact, Empress Wu's inference was very accurate. After confirming that Qin Chu was not suppressed by the high-level royal family, some people had their minds. Zhou Yuanlong sent someone to send an invitation, wanting to invite Qin Chu to talk, and wanting to make peace with Qin Chu. He felt that Zhou Yuanzhen was not in the imperial capital, and as the most powerful prince, Qin Chu should give him this face, but the person who sent the invitation reported that Qin Chu was in seclusion, and the servants received the invitation and said that Qin Chu would pass it on after he came out of seclusion. This made Zhou Yuanlong a little annoyed. What seclusion, these are all excuses. He felt that he had to warn Qin Chu. If he didn't stand in line now, he would easily become a victim in the future.
On the second day, Zhou Yuanlong personally visited Qin Chu's mansion, and he also brought people with him. It is not an exaggeration to say that he mobilized a large army.
Zhou Yuanlong made a decision. It would be best if Qin Chu surrendered. If he did not surrender, he would use public opinion to arrest Qin Chu and make him give an explanation.
Zhou Yuanlong came in person, and Qin Chu could not avoid him. He brought people with him and mobilized a large army. It would not sound good if he avoided him. He also wanted to see what Zhou Yuanlong was going to do.
Qin Chu met Zhou Yuanlong at the door of the mansion.
"What does Prince Yuanlong mean by mobilizing a large army? Are you going to attack my mansion?" Qin Chu pointed to the mansion behind him.
