Zhou Jun didn't expect that the owner of the Zhou village would oppose him so much to support the prince, in his opinion, this is a great opportunity to reach the sky, how could his father resolutely refuse without thinking about it, and couldn't help but start lobbying the old owner Zhou.

"Jun'er, let me ask you, how is the crown prince's character? In addition to having a noble birth, is there anything worth us working hard for him?" The old owner of Zhou also stopped trying to persuade Zhou Jun to give up his plan, and instead began to knock on the side.

Zhou Jun thought for a while and said: "The prince can forbear, is ambitious, can scheming, and is a candidate to be the superior." ”

"Jun'er, do you feel at ease to assist such a person? Your answer makes me even more wary of him. The old farmer shook his head and said.

"Dad, as the saying goes, those who are not in charge of the army, who are not in charge of affairs, who are righteous and do not manage money, who are good and not officials, and who achieve great things, must be selfish and hypocritical. The crown prince is this kind of person, I believe he can succeed in ascending to the throne!" Zhou Jun said with great certainty.

"Then what about after he ascends to the throne? For you, it is nothing more than a cunning rabbit and a dead lackey, and the birds are good and the bow is hidden, why are you suffering?" said the old owner of Zhou bitterly.

"Dad, I understand what you said, and I'll be on guard. Besides, Sisi is already the crown princess, and she will take care of our Zhou family. Zhou Jun said confidently.

"Jun'er, the last thing you should do is to involve Sisi! Don't you know that a relationship based on a woman is the most unreliable? If you do this, although you can get a moment of glory, you will bury Sisi's happiness in her life. Sisi is young and beautiful now, and she can win the favor of the prince alone, what about a few more years? Do you think it is wise for you to pin your hopes on a man's favor for a woman?" said Zhou Laozhuang earnestly.

"Dad, we only need a moment of scenery to be used for several generations, even if Sisi falls out of favor in the end, the benefits that our Zhou family gets from it are enough to help us become a wealthy family, isn't it cost-effective?" Zhou Jun retorted.

"You're wrong! If someone else can give it to you, you can take it back. In front of the imperial power, everything is vain!" Old Zhou closed his eyes, shook his head and said.

"Dad, are you too pessimistic? No matter who is in power, he must always have a group of loyal subordinates to help him govern the country, and he can't dispose of all the heroes, right?" Zhou Jun said with a realistic question.

"Jun'er, do you know how your grandfather died? Do you know why our Zhou family has a foothold in Fengxin Prefecture?" said the old owner of the Zhou Village with a sigh.

"Dad, is there anything hidden here?" Zhou Jun asked curiously.

"Jun'er, our Zhou family is a famous family, and your grandfather is an important minister in the court, and he is even more loyal to the court. It was only because he resolutely opposed the emperor's acceptance of the beauties sent by the Yingtian Empire that he angered the emperor and was ordered to be executed. After your grandfather died, disaster affected the family, and your second and third uncles and I escaped from the imperial capital with the help of our families, and finally settled in Fengxin Prefecture. We didn't have the surname Zhou, so we had to change our surname to Zhou incognito, and we didn't want to tell you these things, for fear that you would be carried away by hatred for a while, hostile to the imperial court, and do irrational things. However, now that you want to participate in the struggle for the throne, your father has to remind you! The most ruthless emperor family, the emperor can put the important ministers of the court to death for the sake of a woman, and he will also put a woman to death because he is tired of putting a woman to death, not to mention the woman's family? Jun'er, wake up, the affairs of the court are not for us Jianghu people to participate in!" The old owner of Zhou opened his eyes, and said with a flickering gaze, his heart was already turbulent, but he was trying his best to remain calm.

Zhou Jun didn't expect the Zhou family to have such a past, so he couldn't help but stay on the spot.

"You are the eldest son of our Zhou family, and I am very pleased that you have had great ambitions since you were a child. However, because of the lack of tempering and frustration in your growth, I wanted you to take my place and exercise well, and learn what you do not have; who knew that you put the cart before the horse, and began to squeeze out the old man and establish your own power, not only did not enrich you, but instead became arrogant and arrogant after power, so ambitious, and now you have to participate in the change of imperial power, you are really getting deeper and deeper!" said the old farmer helplessly.

"Why didn't you tell me this earlier?" Zhou Jun asked with a complicated expression.

"Why do you want to tell you? After telling you, it will only make you more troubled, and it will only leave a knot in your heart that will never be untied, and I am afraid that you will have hatred for the court and do irreparable things. I don't want you to get involved in a battle with the court, I want you to be safe, it's as simple as that. The old farmer explained.

"The revenge of killing your father is not shared, haven't you thought about revenge?" Zhou Jun looked at the old owner of Zhou with dissatisfaction.

"I knew you were going to think that way, so I couldn't tell you about it before. Your grandfather's affairs belong to the righteousness of the monarch and the ministers, no matter who is right or wrong, it is a matter between the monarch and the courtiers, as for the tragedy that happened to our family, it is that there are villains who are secretly doing evil, and they want to kill us all, and they can't all blame the emperor. If it weren't for the emperor's acquiescence, do you think we would be able to survive and develop? This shows that the emperor feels guilty about your grandfather, but he is the king of a country, and he can't let go of his mistakes and admit his mistakes. Who can clearly distinguish the grievances and grievances in this? Therefore, my father does not want the people of our Zhou family to enter the court as officials and generals. However, as the people of the Shuntian Empire, we must not do things that are sorry for the country, this is the principle!" explained the old owner of Zhou again.

"Dad, I'm sorry, you made me think about it again, my mind is very messed up now!" Zhou Jun rubbed his temples and said, his expression was very tangled.

"As soon as you enter the Hou Gate, it is as deep as the sea, let alone the royal family?

"Dad, becoming the crown princess is Sisi's own choice, not my arrangement. Zhou Jun said.

"However, you are the one who led her down this path, and if she hadn't gone to the imperial capital, none of these things would have happened. Now we can only pray for the good fortune and happiness of the people. Old Zhou said helplessly.

Zhou Jun could only nod in agreement, he didn't know what would happen to Zhou Sisi in the future, after all, it was the most ruthless emperor's family, and things from heaven to hell could happen at any time, and these things were not something he could predict and control at all.

Zhou Sisi's time in Xiangyunzhuang was very relaxed and happy, where she didn't have to worry about anything, didn't have to be cautious, didn't have to disguise herself, and lived a carefree life. Compared with the caution when he was by the prince's side, life is very comfortable now. She was suddenly obsessed with this kind of empty-hearted, freewheeling life. However, she knew in her heart that this was only a temporary relaxation, this kind of life that she could have lived for a lifetime was out of reach for her, and from the moment she chose to go to the imperial capital, the current life was already a luxury for her.

Zhou Sisi walked alone in Xiangyunzhuang, and unconsciously walked to the place where Ye Heng once lived, looking at it with a lonely expression, but he didn't have the courage to step on the door again. Because, in this familiar place, there will never be the person who was once familiar, things are people, you can only see things and think about people, and you can only worry about it.

"Sisi, what are you thinking?" Zhou Sisi fell into deep thought, and didn't notice anyone approaching at all.

"Grandpa, are you looking for me?" Zhou Sisi was shocked and hurriedly asked.

"I want to talk to you, is it convenient?" said the old owner of Zhou.

"You don't have to be so polite, no matter how my identity changes, you are the grandfather who loves me the most!" Zhou Sisi smiled.

"Grandpa knows that my good granddaughter is the best at making grandpa happy, hahahaha!"

"I'm not lying to you, I'm telling the truth!" Zhou Sisi emphasized.

"Okay, okay, grandpa still doesn't believe what Sisi said? Let's go, let's find a place to sit. The old owner of Zhou Zhuang led the way as he spoke.

The two came to a pavilion and sat down, and the old owner of Zhou said: "Sisi, grandpa knows the purpose of your return to Xiangyunzhuang this time, from the perspective of family affection, grandpa should help you, but, from your choice, grandpa really dare not bet on the fate of the entire Xiangyunzhuang, can you understand grandpa?"

Zhou Sisi smiled and said, "Grandpa, I know what you're worried about, I'm also a member of the Zhou family, and I don't want to bring the Zhou family into a desperate situation, but I have my own plans, but it's inconvenient to tell you now." In fact, the biggest purpose of coming to Xiangyunzhuang this time is to show the prince, as for whether you can get your support is secondary, don't take it too seriously. ”

After listening to Zhou Sisi's words, the old owner of Zhou was a little puzzled and asked, "Sisi, what is the real purpose of your coming here?"

"I said I'm here to relax, do you believe me?" Zhou Sisi said with a smile.

The old owner of Zhou shook his head and said: "I don't believe it! Sisi, no matter when, grandpa is your most trustworthy relative, you can talk to grandpa about anything, no matter how bad grandpa is, he can help you come up with ideas, don't you say?"

"I understand, grandpa, I'm sorry for the trouble. Zhou Sisi said apologetically.

"Sisi, the more you are like this, the more unsteady your grandfather feels in her heart, are you afraid that grandpa will be embarrassed, and deliberately said this? Grandpa just saw it very clearly, you look preoccupied, although grandpa is old, but not confused, you can't hide it from grandpa!"

"Grandpa, I really don't have any other purpose, I was thinking about Ye Heng just now, you should believe it like this, right?" Zhou Sisi said with some bitterness.

"Alas, grandpa thought that the two of you were childhood sweethearts and would live happily together. Grandpa is also very optimistic about Ye Heng, it's only that grandpa only cared about the retreat at the beginning, and didn't stop you from going to the imperial capital, it's really a creation and trickery, the two of you will have a fate!" said the old owner of Zhou with regret.

"Grandpa, don't think so, all this is my own choice, I don't blame you at all! Now that I am the crown princess, there is no point in talking about this. Zhou Sisi said with some loss.

"Actually, you still love Ye Heng in your heart, don't you?" Old Master Zhou suddenly asked.

Zhou Sisi was shocked suddenly, and she couldn't help but feel a pain in her heart, she didn't answer immediately, but bit her red lips and looked at the sky stupidly.

"Sisi, no matter what happens in the future, grandpa hopes you can be safe and happy. If you need it, you must tell grandpa, for you, grandpa can be the enemy of the world!"
