The Empress Dowager Janet lost, she couldn't have expected that the [Bone Melting Elixir] given to her by the Jianghu Fang Shi behind her was a version of the concentration of the active ingredient reduced by two-thirds, resulting in the medicinal properties only lasting for two hours.

Little Ford took his medicine at 8 o'clock in the morning and took the test at 11 o'clock in the morning, and after more than three hours, it was strange that he could get along.

At this time, Zhou Ming also believed that Jenom was 100% not the blood of the previous emperor, but the illegitimate son of the old lady who fooled around with others.

The rumors he concocted were actually real facts, not innocent wrongs.

Why?

Because the old lady's reaction was so strange.

On the one hand, he was looking for a way to prove that Little Ford was the blood of the emperor through cheating.

On the other hand, kill people and kill the Jianghu monk sent by Zhou Ming.

She is so weak-hearted and tries her best to cover it up, doesn't it just prove the fact that she has done something wrong?

If she really has a clear conscience, she has taken the test in a dignified manner, why take so many actions so that Zhou Ming can take advantage of the void?

In short, it is still the same sentence, Zhou Ming can win, not by his own bull fork, but by the opponents who are too poor, so that he can find too many flaws to start, and finally defeat them one by one.

Therefore, Zhou Ming won the trick, not on himself, but on his opponent.

This is also the reason why he chose to inject this body after some analysis.

But there is another question, and some people will definitely be puzzled: in Zhou Mingbu's two games of "assassination" and "rumor-mongering", as long as the "rumor-mongering" works, he will undoubtedly win, why increase the risk, share the manpower, and lay down two games at the same time?

Actually, Zhou Ming is also for the sake of safety.

Because it is subject to a variety of uncontrollable factors, there is a certain risk of failure in any planning and layout, and the success rate cannot be 100%.

If the assassination fails, it depends on whether the rumor-mongering can succeed.

If the assassination and rumor-mongering fail, he still has a backhand...... In short, the three sets of plans he prepared, as long as one or two sets are successful, the probability of him ascending the throne will be greatly improved.

Fortunately, God is very face-saving, and the two sets of plans have been successful one after another, and the probability of him sitting on the throne is basically stable at 100%.

And the best results were obtained, and two mountains were eradicated.

One, after Jenom was killed, the biggest personal threat was gone, and Zhou Ming no longer had to worry about it, the poisonous meat soup would be brought to him that day.

Second, after the Empress Dowager Janet's reputation was discredited, she had no way to continue to control the imperial government, and after Zhou Ming ascended the throne, the biggest obstacle to taking power was cleared in this way.

So a week later, after receiving the support of most of the noble ministers in the court.

A grand and grand ceremony was held for the enthronement of the new emperor.

Under the watchful eye of all people, 12-year-old Zhou Ming wore the costume of God King, sat on the throne of the emperor, and reigned in the world!

He became the Emperor of the Orunian Empire, ruling over 180 million square kilometers of land on the surface of the entire floating island, and ruling over about 3 billion people.

However, does this mean that Zhou Ming is firmly on the throne?

Is all the supreme power of the empire in his hands?

Of course not.

He is still just a 12-year-old Xiao Zhengtai, the lord is suspicious, his prestige is insufficient, and he can't talk about major national affairs, so he can only let the elders of the royal family and the old ministers in the court deal with it together, Zhou Ming is responsible for listening on the side, studying carefully, and then stamping his emperor's seal on the holy decree.

In addition, because he cooperated actively, his learning attitude was modest and serious, and his use of the seal was also very timely, the evaluation of him by the ministers of the court and the central government was very positive, and many ministers gave five-star praise.

There are even ministers who sighed privately: "Good emperor, good emperor, Knox is better than that guy Jenom, I don't know how many times better." ”

In this way, less than two months after Zhou Ming ascended the throne, the upper echelons of the empire, which had been in turmoil, quickly stabilized and restored the peace that people expected.

It's just that if this calm continues, sooner or later, Zhou Ming will become a puppet played by the ministers at will.

If he does not have the support of a family that plays an important role in the empire, he will not be able to grasp the power to make decisions for a long time, and the emperor will become dull when he sits down.

And Zhou Ming is too young now to show his evil far beyond his age too early, he has to pretend to be a pig and eat a tiger for a while.

You can't think of a rootless duckweed, without the support of any family and resources.

So he had to gather some forces to stabilize his foundation.

Who?

Who should he woo?

The Lucis family.

Of course, it is the Lucis family, which is powerful in the empire and controls half of the military power.

If you don't continue to woo this family, in this empire, even if Zhou Ming's identity is the emperor, it will be difficult to get mixed up in the future.

So after taking some time, Zhou Ming personally visited the Lord Lucis in the name of visiting the emperor's grandmother (the old lady moved out of the palace and returned to her family, because she was too stimulated and a little mentally disturbed, and had not yet recovered).

Prince Lucis's name is Fred Lucis, 88 years old this year, a kind old man, and Zhou Ming's great-grandfather.

Entering the Wangjue Mansion, letting people give gifts, visiting the emperor's grandmother in the ward, and accidentally stimulating the old lady, in the noble living room of the Wangjue Mansion, Zhou Ming and Prince Lucis chatted alone for a while.

At first, the two did not speak, just drank tea and were silent for a while.

But as soon as the old prince opened his mouth, it was a shocking word.

"Amazing, amazing, at a young age, but he can survive in the Jedi, fight back again and again, defeat the two strong enemies, clear the obstacles, and ascend to the supreme position...... This courage, this resourcefulness, among the sixteen emperors, none of them can compare with you. ”

The old prince sighed, his eyes full of shock.

"Ahem, ahem!"

Zhou Ming coughed violently twice, and said with a confused expression: "Grandpa Cao, I don't understand what you said. "I was confused on my lips, but I was pummy in my heart.

The old prince continued to sigh: "I also guessed the purpose of your visit this time, if you don't come at the most dangerous time, you will come after you basically sit on the throne...... Obviously, the Lucis family is not the charcoal you urgently need in the snow, but the flowers that need to be added to the cake. ”

In the old prince's voice, there was a trace of anger at the beginning, and he said coldly: "Boy, you can't help but look down on the Lucis family too much, right?"

"Ahem! ahem!"

Zhou Ming could only cough embarrassedly, and smiled helplessly: "Grandpa Cao, you really think a little too much." But he was secretly scolding in his heart: Sure enough, the older he gets, the more refined he becomes, and he meets an old fox again.

"Hmph! You're still pretending to be confused with me here, boy, since you want to win over the Lucis family, show a little sincerity!

The old prince glared at him and asked.

Zhou Ming shook his head slightly, sighed, and said to the old prince: "Just according to the sincerity that my great-grandfather wants me to show." Zhou Ming knew that from the moment he stepped into this prince's mansion, everything was in the old prince's calculations.

"Hmph, that's how we met. ”

Then the old prince clapped his hands, and said to a screen of furniture by the window on the right side of the living room, "Elsa, come out." ”

After speaking, a young girl about thirteen or fourteen years old walked out from behind the screen, dragging a yellow dress woven of silk, with a slender and graceful upper body, jade arms like onions, crisp breasts beginning to take shape, and a fair and beautiful face, which impressed countless first-time seekers and made their hearts beat faster.

Zai Zhou Ming's eyes are full of appreciation, this girl is like Snow White in a fairy tale, in terms of appearance, temperament, manners, etc., she is a little Lori who can score 95 points.

Of course, if you want to say that he is heart-pounding, Zhou Ming has not yet reached that level, unless the comprehensive score is above 98 points.

"Elsa, tell your great-grandfather, what do you think of this kid?" asked the old prince pointing at Zhou Ming.

The girl looked at Zhou Ming for a while, nodded lightly, and said, "It's not bad, it's much stronger than that disgusting thing in Jenom." "It turns out that what Jenom desperately pursued last time was this little Lori.

"Hey, Knox, you can also say something, what do you think of Elsa?" the old prince asked Zhou Ming.

Zhou Ming stared at the girl in front of him for a while, took a breath, and said, "If I get her, I will build a golden house, put countless priceless gems and jewels in the golden house, and hide Elsa in it so that no one can steal her." ”

As soon as these words came out!

The old prince's eyes lit up, and an extremely satisfied expression appeared on his face.

Elsa, who originally had a mediocre view of Zhou Ming, looked at him blankly after hearing these words, and two blush quickly rose on her face, and her heart beat faster.

Then he lifted the corners of his skirt, turned around and ran out of the living room.

"Hahaha, hahahaha!"

Seeing this scene, the old prince laughed heartily.
