The Zhou family of Shandong Wang family is a local wealthy family, Zhou Qi is from the Zhou family in Shandong, for Zhou Qi, since he became a jinshi, he has left his hometown and has not returned to his hometown for so many years.

For so many years, he didn't get out of much Mingtang when he was running around outside, this time he was able to enter Lu Zheng's palace and become Lu Zheng's henchman, and his career was decent, so this time he returned to his hometown in fine clothes!

"Lord Wang, the Zhang family in Shandong is now also a wealthy family, the Zhang family has been doing trade business with Dongyi and Goryeo in Shandong for many years, and after a few years of hard work, it is now very large-scale!" Zhou Qi said very carelessly, he paused, and continued:

"By the way, the current head of the Zhang family is a woman, a woman is in charge, it is very unusual, this woman is called Hua Er's grandmother, and it is said that she is the number one extremely powerful person......"

"Oh?" Lu Zheng was stunned for a moment, staring out the window in a daze and unable to speak for a long time, countless thoughts appeared in his mind, the Zhang family in Yangzhou back then, that was the starting point of Lu Zheng's life in this world. Hua Hanyun of the Zhang family, that extremely beautiful and extremely ruthless woman, Lu Zheng thought of her, and her appearance involuntarily appeared in his mind, and then he thought about everything in Yangzhou that day, it was really as if it happened yesterday.

Yangzhou Zhang family, the decline of the Zhang family is also related to Lu Zheng in a sense, after all, Lu Zheng caused trouble in the capital at that time, and the collapse of the Zhang family is because of this reason, after the Zhang family, the Lu family, the Chen family and even the Gu family may collapse, but in the end, only the Zhang family became cannon fodder.

"This time I went to Shandong not only to meet Your Majesty, but also to see the old people!" Lu Zheng muttered, after a while, Lu Zheng is no longer the young man on the bank of the Yangzhou River that day, is the old man still the old man?

……

Central Plains, Bianzhou, Qi Yuanzhi has been to Shengjing for almost five or six days, these five or six days are really exciting, Qi Yuanzhi feels that he has experienced from hell to heaven.

When Qi Yuanzhi just arrived in Bianzhou, Cao Weiming's attitude towards him was very bad, and he was surrounded by strong hands, obviously to prevent him from escaping, and that posture clearly regarded Qi Yuanzhi as a human prisoner!

But then Cao Weiming's attitude changed subtly, he took Qi Yuanzhi to the Honglu Pavilion, and he took care of his diet and daily life very thoughtfully, but he shirked all kinds of requests put forward by Qi Yuanzhi, and even avoided them most of the time.

And from yesterday to today, Cao Weiming's attitude has changed dramatically, especially today, Cao Weiming has visited the door three times!

Qi Yuanzhi sat on the chair, his mind was full of thoughts, he now felt more and more that Lu Zheng said incisively, when he came, Lu Zheng said to him: "Yuanzhi, don't worry, because there are no eternal friends in this world, and there are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests!" Our Liaodong Army defeated the Northwest Army, and since then the overall situation of the world has been turned upside down, and you will definitely be able to hold Cao Weiming in the Central Plains! ”

Qi Yuanzhi was still very nervous before he came, but after the situation of the past few days, he became more and more sure in his heart, and he was naturally completely obedient to Lu Zheng's advice!

Cao Weiming is also a prince, wearing a python robe and uniform, and came in with a big belly, Qi Yuanzhi stood up calmly, but slightly arched his hand, and said: "General Cao, how can I be free to see you today?" Didn't our prince's words make General Cao figure it out, and General Cao was willing to cooperate with us in Liaodong? ”

Cao Weiming grinned and said, "Your lord? Isn't this king a prince? In the name of the Son of Heaven, this king is the king of Qin, and now he is in charge of the two provinces of the Central Plains, Liaodong and we are not the same world, if Lu Zheng can submit to my Great Qianchao, then everything is easy to say, if not, Mr. Qi, this time you are only afraid of running away in vain! ”

"Haha!" Qi Yuanzhi laughed and said: "General Cao, our prince still has a sentence for me to bring to you, if General Cao is stubborn and insists on going his own way, then when the spring flowers bloom, he will personally come to the Central Plains, but if he wants to come to the Central Plains, he will inevitably be followed by 100,000 iron horsemen." There is no war in the north, the Central Plains is right and wrong, Lord Cao, don't embarrass our prince! ”

Cao Weiming's face changed, and there were several guards standing behind him, one of whom stepped forward and shouted angrily: "Bold, you dare to talk to my lord like this, you are looking for death!" ”

A kind of guard Qi Qi surrounded Qi Yuanzhi, Qi Yuanzhi was fearless, and said: "Wait for the erector, do you have a part to speak here?" I'm saving your master's life, hmph, I don't know what to do, get out of here! ”

Qi Yuanzhi reprimanded angrily, his tone was calm, Cao Weiming stared at him for a long time, raised his hand with a gloomy face and said, "Let's go down!" ”

Only then did the guards retreat together, Cao Weiming's face was still ugly, and he said, "Qi Yuanzhi, do you really think that a few words can scare this king?" This king can be regarded as a half-life on the battlefield, I haven't seen any big scenes, can you scare me with just a few threatening words? ”

Qi Yuanzhi said lightly: "General Cao, the Central Plains is not peaceful, to the east, there is the capital Tan Lei eyeing the tiger, Tan Lei's men and horses are all tiger and wolf divisions, if he wants to take the Central Plains, the general may not be able to stop it!"

The general wants to borrow the power of Longyou, but since the defeat of Longyou Song Naifeng, he has suffered from wind disease, he is sick in bed, half of his body is paralyzed, and the entire northwest has become a pot of porridge, his two sons are now opposed to each other, ready to fight, obviously want to fight for the control of Longyou, they are too busy to take care of themselves, do they still have the ability to take care of the Central Plains? ”

Qi Yuanzhi arched his hand and said: "But our prince is different, the prince and Princess Long Lingxiu have an agreement, he can let Princess Long Lingxiu lead the elite soldiers south at any time and defend the eldest prince, so that the Central Plains can have one more force, which is a constraint for Tan Lei, and for General Cao, it is also very advantageous at the moment, so like this, the general still thinks that our prince has no means?" ”

Cao Weiming's face changed drastically, and he already knew about Long Lingxiu's southward journey, because Long Zhaoyan also remembered it! Long Zhaoyan has been very panicked since he left the capital, on the one hand, he was worried that Tan Lei would be angry and send troops to attack him, on the other hand, he heard about Cao Weiming's notoriety, and he was worried that he would get out of the tiger's mouth and fall into the wolf's lair, so he very much hoped to join forces with Long Lingxiu.

Originally, Cao Weiming didn't like this matter very much, but now the situation in the north has turned upside down, Liaodong has actually defeated the Northwest Army, and Song Naifeng, who has been invincible, can't afford to get sick and can't get up in bed, under such circumstances, his attitude has also changed subtly......
