South of Los Angeles, Zhongyue Mountain. When Zimmer was woken up from his slumber, he was still a little confused by what he had just heard. After a few moments, however, he rolled over and sat up, a look of shock on his face.

The tiredness of the past few days made him feel a little unbearable. After all, it's old. In order to prepare for this birthday of the Son of Heaven, he put in a lot of effort. A thousand things must be asked in person, lest something go wrong. It was already three watches when he went to sleep last night. If he had gone according to the original arrangement, he planned to return to Los Angeles later in the day. I heard that Zhao Wang Chu Jiangmian had come yesterday, and he was full of expectations for this meeting with him.

In fact, in the minds of Zimmer and most people, they already feel very satisfied with maintaining the current situation. After all, L.A. is now at its best compared to the years it used to be. If you give up those unrealistic ideas. It should be nice to be able to go on like this, right?

However, on this early summer morning in the mountains, Zimmer, who suddenly heard the shocking news, completely sank his heart. He knew very well that from this moment on, maybe everything would be irreparable. Although the mountains were cool and there was still a slight chill in the air, fine beads of sweat were already oozing from his forehead. He grabbed the hand of the person in front of him, and there was an obvious irrepressible panic in his voice.

"Lan Lingjun! Do you know how King Zhao is now? ”

The first to know the news of such an earth-shattering change was from the mouth of Lanling Jun, who came from afar as a guest. This is inherently incomprehensible. Now, however, Zimmer is not concerned about anything else. What he wanted to know most was whether Chu Jiangmian was alive or dead.

However, what disappointed him was that the other party also did not know about the life and death of King Zhao. Lanling Jun Tian Wuzhao just sighed loudly, and his mood was even heavier than him.

"Mo Gong, I can't hide it. My men, after noticing that something was wrong, tried to enter the palace to find out. But they didn't succeed in the end. Just in case, I had to leave Los Angeles overnight and come to Mo Gong to ask for clarification. But I didn't expect that Mo Gong didn't know anything about this matter. This is really, this is really...... Ay! ”

Lan Lingjun really didn't know what to say. Such a big thing happened, and the actual ruler of the Great Zhou Dynasty on the other side was kept in the dark, so what was hidden behind it was really amazing.

The people around him looked at each other. An extremely strong feeling of uneasiness began to emerge in everyone's mind. If there is turmoil in L.A., no one wants to see it. But now, there is no doubt that it is inevitable.

In the silence, Zimmer stood up and looked at the mountains as far as the eye could see. It seems that they have lost their color. His already rickety body appeared more curved. If the situation he had painstakingly managed for many years was destroyed overnight, then he didn't know what such efforts were for.

Lanling Jun Tian Wuzhao empathized with the old man's inner pain. And he, why not? In this world, except for some ambitious guys, no one likes war and turmoil. A stable and peaceful life, growing prosperity day by day. The people under his rule can solve the problem of food and clothing, and there is no longer the suffering of displacement. That's probably what all of them want to see. And now, those good starts are about to be ruined, and perhaps a terrible future that cannot be predicted. Just thinking about it makes people shudder.

The reason why Lan Lingjun was able to detect something bad at the first time was because there were many capable people in his entourage. The reputation of the world's famous sons is not obtained out of thin air, over the years, Lanling Jun has many monks, and every time he travels, in addition to a large number of personal followers, there are also some secret protections.

In order to be able to see Chu Jiangmian as soon as possible, after Lan Lingjun entered Luocheng, he sent people to pay attention to his whereabouts at any time. And the other party entered Zichen Palace tonight for a banquet, and naturally it was also under his control. Just when the shift was made, the wind around Zichen Palace suddenly changed, and the heavily armed armor soldiers began to move. There are also many unidentified masters who act together. The Qi State master who was lurking in the darkness immediately realized that the situation was not right. They immediately rushed back and reported it to Lan Lingjun to know. This noble son of Qi was taken aback. Based on his experience, he immediately judged that something might have happened in Zichen Palace. Chu Jiangmian's condition was not good.

And the other party acted very quickly, and he didn't have to wait for him to come up with a countermeasure. I got the latest news again. The place where the people of Zhao lived was suddenly attacked, and the flames soared into the sky, and it is likely that the people there suffered misfortune.

Lan Lingjun immediately made a decision and immediately ordered everyone to immediately follow him and withdraw from Los Angeles. When danger comes, protect yourself before you have the opportunity to act. This is the way a wise man works. Naturally, Lan Lingjun would not wait for the danger to fall on his head before reacting, then it would be too late.

Although the gates had been closed, it was not difficult for them to get out of the city. And after leaving the city, Lan Lingjun chose the goal of going straight to Zhongyue Mountain. He absolutely did not believe that what was happening in the city was arranged by the king's brother Zimmer. Perhaps, after finding him, we will discuss countermeasures together, and there will be a turnaround.

Along the way, with the continuous arrival of follow-up news, Lan Lingjun had a deeper understanding of the seriousness of this matter. He became more and more convinced that this was definitely not an emergency, but a rebellion initiated by some careerists who had been planning for a long time. If King Zhao really died in Los Angeles, then the consequences would really be unimaginable.

According to Lan Lingjun's understanding of the people of Zhao, the father and son of the Zhao family have been deeply gracious to the people for decades, and the people living in that land can be said to be grateful to them. Once Chu Jiangmian has a good situation, those tiger and wolf soldiers of Zhao State are willing to give up! If you can't think of this, it can only be said that the person who led this conspiracy is really dizzy!

"Ready, let's go back to Los Angeles right away!"

A deep voice interrupted Lan Lingjun's contemplation. He looked up in surprise and met Zimmer's gaze. There is pain and helplessness in it, and there is deep regret. Lan Lingjun didn't want to get involved in the other party's decision, but he couldn't help it after all. So he shook his head and dissuaded.

"Mo Gong, panic is chaos, you have to think twice! I don't think it's better to rush back to Los Angeles at this time. ”

"Lan Lingjun, how do you say this?"

Ji Mo's heart was like a weed, he just wanted to hurry back to Zichen Palace and ask Brother Wang what he thought in person! Is he really old and confused? I didn't even know anything about such a big thing in advance. This made him feel angry at the same time, but also a wordless sadness.

"Mo Gong, although I don't know what the specific situation is, I think this is a rebellion by a treacherous person. They took advantage of your absence in Los Angeles to encourage the Son of Heaven to make the wrong decision. Now the wood has been made, and the big mistake has been made. Even if you're in a hurry to get back to Los Angeles, what can you change? What's more, since they dare to do this, they must have been fully prepared. If you go back and have a good time, there's really no other way. ”

Zimmer is not a confused person, but he is just angry and almost out of proportion. Hearing Lan Lingjun's persuasion, he immediately realized his gaffe. And what the other party said is very reasonable. In the current situation of uncertainty, if you rush back to Los Angeles, something may not happen! In the past few years, the world has been difficult and dangerous, and I am deceitful, is there still less knowledge?

"Lan Lingjun, then in your opinion, what should we do?"

"Mo Gong, we should stay in Zhongyue Mountain, gather troops and horses, and defend against danger. On the premise of ensuring their own safety, use all possible channels to find out the current situation in Los Angeles as soon as possible. If possible, the main thing is to find out the life and death of King Zhao, as well as the attitude of the Son of Heaven...... Then it will be possible to find a solution to this crisis! ”

Lan Lingjun is really a thoughtful person, and these words are to the point, which is the crux of the matter. Ji Mo nodded again and again, and couldn't help but secretly rejoice in his heart that Lan Lingjun came to his side at this time. After thinking for a while, he summoned the general Zidun, who led part of the Praetorian Guards here, and asked him to immediately organize all the men and block the main road into Zhongyue Mountain in case of accidents.

Although General Zidun didn't understand these intrigues inside and outside the royal court, he understood that the situation this time was really very serious. If one is not careful, the life and death of the individual is small, and the last bit of the Great Zhou Dynasty will really be lost! He didn't dare to slack off, and with a heavy heart, he went to organize and arrange.

"Mo Gong, I got a message when I came. It is said that Lu Qi, the king of the Southern Han Dynasty, led tens of thousands of troops to Zhongzhou. His army had blocked the crossing of the Luo River...... If this information is true, then a war is imminent, and I am afraid it is inevitable!"

Lan Lingjun's sources are really extensive. In such a short period of time, all aspects of the situation have been known. Zimmer and those around him were even more surprised. If the arrival of the Southern Han army is also part of this great conspiracy, then Los Angeles is really opening the door to thieves and luring wolves into the house!

"War...... Is it really coming again?!"

"Mo Gong, I'm afraid so! No matter what the current situation of King Zhao is, with the participation of the princes, it is bound to be difficult to be good. How terrible the power of Zhao is now, Mo Gong won't be unclear, right? ”

Everyone was silent. After more than five years of development and expansion, if the current Zhao State really let out an angry roar, no one dared to guarantee that it would be able to resist the thunderous rage!

"Hopefully things haven't gotten that bad......."

The mountain wind is cold, and the white hair is like frost. Looking at Los Angeles from afar, in Zimmer's heart full of pathos, this is already the last expectation.
