The night is like ink.

In the Prime Minister's Mansion, Zhou Xingxing and Zhou Zechen, the two grandparents and grandchildren, were sitting opposite each other in the study, each holding a chess, and they were playing against each other quietly.

The hour had passed, but there was no movement outside the city.

Rao has always been scheming like Zhou Xingxing, and in the face of such a quiet night, he gradually couldn't sit still.

He asked himself, all the arrangements for tonight can be described as meticulous and incomprehensible, and they will not fail under any circumstances.

But why is it that there is no news from outside the city when this happens?

After the fall of a son, Zhou Xingxing took advantage of the moment when his grandson was thinking and quietly looked up at the night sky outside the window.

The sky was still pitch black, and there was no other color in sight.

It's all this hour, why hasn't the outside of the city remembered the flare he had prepared for that person in advance?

Could it be that things have changed?

It shouldn't be~!

In order to hold the 100,000 soldiers and horses of the Tongzhou battalion in his hands, the back hand he prepared tonight was more than one or two. ---- Tongzhou camp, there were already his henchmen, the eldest princess, he left a back hand, and among the emperor's people, he left a back hand. Even, in order to ensure that tonight's events were foolproof, he also deliberately offered his most trusted henchmen and sent them out.

That one is enshrined, but he is also a strong man who breaks the realm!

Now, in the Tongzhou camp, the highest cultivation is just that girl. Even if that girl has a dragon slaying knife and a cloud-piercing bow, if the big worshipper wants to protect herself, there should be no problem.

So, even if it doesn't work out, there should be news back.

But now, why is there no movement outside the city?

It turned out that when everyone was staring at the Tongzhou camp, Zhou Xingxing also quietly attracted the attention of the Tongzhou camp.

After all, although he has been the prime minister of the empire for many years, he is the head of all civil officials. In the Imperial Army, there is no power at all.

Of course, over the years, it is not that Zhou Xingxing has not had the opportunity to attack the imperial military......; He needs to avoid suspicion.

Only if he does not interfere in the affairs of the imperial military, the emperor will fully trust him.

Therefore, over the years, Zhou Xingxing has been the head of his civil officials.

But the current Tongzhou battalion has given him an excellent opportunity, an excellent opportunity to hold a heavy army.

In fact, from the time he secretly assisted the eldest princess to arrange the Tongzhou camp to the outskirts of Beijing without knowing it, he had already secretly planned this matter. ---- if he had this 100,000 army in hand, even if Xining City and Yanbei Land did not listen to his arrangement, he would have the capital to protect himself.

You know, if you want to rebel, how can it be possible if you don't have military power in your hands?

Therefore, Zhou Xingxing has always been fighting the idea of this Tongzhou camp. And for tonight, he made a lot of arrangements that others couldn't imagine.

Zhou Xingxing pinched the chess piece in his hand and frowned secretly.

For some reason, he always felt a little uneasy in his heart tonight.

But what's the problem? Zhou Xingxing saved tonight's plan from beginning to end, but he still didn't find the slightest flaw.

Could it be that those old guys from the academy are in the Tongzhou camp, and they have left other arrangements?

Zhou Xingxing thought of those arrangements tonight, thought of those games within the game, and couldn't help but groan for a moment.

"Grandfather, it's time for you to leave your son. At this moment, Zhou Zechen dropped down, raised his head and said lightly.

He knew what his grandfather was thinking. It's nothing more than the 100,000 army outside the city.

However, he wouldn't tell this grandfather that as early as when he and his eldest grandson Wujiang were drinking tea in the courtyard in the east of the city, he had secretly returned to the Zhou family under the cover of Yun Ji, and had also secretly investigated the whereabouts of several great worshippers in the mansion......

At this moment, the girl outside the city is just afraid that she has been on guard for a long time, right?

She is so smart, this time, some of her grandfather's plans, I am afraid that they will be in vain.

Zhou Zechen just mentioned it lightly, lowered his eyes again, and his gaze fell on the chessboard in front of him.

Grandfather is the holy hand in this, and he doesn't dare to be careless when playing against him.

Zhou Xingxing came back to his senses and casually left a son.

He has been good at scheming since he was a child, and in chess, he is naturally not something that Zhou Zechen can compete with.

A son fell, and the killing momentum gradually rose.

Zhou Zechen held the white child in his hand and frowned slightly.

Grandfather...... Is this murderous?

But who is this murderous intent aimed at?

It won't be herself, then it can only be the girl outside the city.

Zhou Zechen's heart tightened, and when he fell, he became more and more cautious.

For her sake, he couldn't let his grandfather see the slightest abnormality.

"Chen'er," Zhou Xingxing glanced at the grandson opposite with a smile, and suddenly asked, "What have you found in the eldest grandson's mansion today?"

"The grandson doesn't understand. Zhou Zechen held the chess pieces in his hand and raised his head and asked.

"Chen'er, those people around His Highness Yunjiao......" Zhou Xingxing looked at him, and something flashed in his eyes.

Zhou Zechen frowned slightly, seemed to think for a moment, and then said, "The aura on those people is indeed very similar to the teachers of Qingyi Academy. It's just that after all, the grandson's days in the academy are less than a year, and there are many strong people in the academy, and the grandson may not recognize them. ”

Zhou Xingxing smiled again, and asked seemingly unintentionally, "So, none of those powerhouses in the Eldest Sun Courtyard today, Chen'er, have you ever seen them?"

Zhou Zechen thought about it, left another son behind, and replied truthfully, "Don't hide it from grandfather, those people, and grandchildren have indeed never seen them in the academy." ”

Those strong people, he really hadn't seen them in the academy, and Zhou Zechen didn't deceive his grandfather about this.

When Zhou Xingxing heard this, he pinched the chess pieces in his hand and frowned slightly.

"Haven't you seen it either?" he said as if to himself, "Over the years, my grandfather has had a good relationship with the Academy. The strong people who broke through the realm of the academy, my grandfather also claimed to know a lot. But today's breath, my grandfather didn't recognize any of them. ”

Saying this, he looked up at his grandson again, his expression quite solemn.

"Chen'er, do you know that before Zhang Huanghou was born, there were always a group of people in Qingyi Academy, known as the guardians of the academy! Those people have nothing to do with the appearance of Zhang Huanghou, but they have always been the most secret power of the academy. Originally, the old man was just because those people were just ordinary masters, but now it seems that ......"

Speaking of this, Zhou Xingxing shook his head, and his expression became more and more solemn.

When Zhou Zechen heard this, he frowned and said, "What does grandfather mean, in addition to Dean Chen and other old professors in the academy, there are also a group of realm breaking powerhouses who have never appeared in front of people. And this time, those strong people who appeared in the capital are those people?"

Zhou Xingxing nodded.

In this way, the hole cards of the academy are only deeper than the world imagined......

Zhou Zechen didn't speak, but he couldn't help but think of the gatekeepers on both sides of the Academy's Galaxy Canyon. The ghost mother-in-law, the hunchbacked old man...... And in the Valley of Trials, the eyes of those silent guardian students who hide behind them!

Perhaps, they are the guardians of the academy in my grandfather's mouth.
