On the afternoon of April 3, the ninth year of Baoda (951 AD), a small-scale name change ceremony was held in the mansion of Situ Zhouzong. Zhou Xian, the daughter of the Zhou family, personally wrote a post to invite Wenyi, a high-ranking monk in the stone Qingliang Avenue of Jinling City, to enter the house, asked the master to change his name and change his name, and prayed for his father Zhou Zong, who had been recuperating at home from illness recently.

The whole process of the ceremony is secret, but afterwards the Zhou family vaguely revealed, after the eminent monk Wenyi's performance, Zhou Xian's constitutional character can be split into "宀" and "first", which implicitly suppresses the ancestors, and Emperor E has the same name as Emperor Shun's concubine in ancient times, and the name and word are against the harmony of heaven and the word directly offend the body of his father Zhou Zong, and has now been officially renamed Zhou Xian Zhou Luoying.

That evening, through a small invitation and oral tradition, young men of the appropriate age from a powerful and famous family in Jinling City were invited to Situ Mansion to listen to the newly renamed Zhou Ehuang perform the guqin performance.

Although Emperor Zhou E was masked in a white veil, and the place of the performance was still separated from everyone by a pond, but under the backdrop of the beautiful and melodious music, in the swaying candlelight under the spring breeze, the white-clothed Zhou Ehuang looked even more decent, like a fairy, and suddenly made a group of pig brothers drool, all of them ready to move.

Zhou Zonggui is Situ, the Zhou family is the richest man in the Tang Dynasty, and Emperor Zhou E is like a fairy, these three factors are superimposed, even if they are listed separately, they ensure that Emperor Zhou E is an excellent object of pursuit!

After a song, a black-faced ugly man in dazzling brocade clothes and full of jade came to Yahuan Xiaocui, who had just stepped back from Zhou Ehuang's side, and asked with a grin: "Hey, this sister, dare to ask your young lady what her preferences are?" ”

Xiao Cui glanced at him, then glared hatefully at the old man of Zhou Zong and the three brothers of the Zhou family in the crowd, sighed lightly, and did not say anything.

"This beautiful sister, you can admire your face and tell me!" The ugly man didn't give up, but still asked.

"You ask my lord to go! My young lady is so versatile, so smart and beautiful, and there are many people I like! Miss has obviously been on good terms with Lord Lin Fenglin for nearly a year, and even His Royal Highness King Zheng has often come to my young lady to ask for music recently. My young lady has been washing her face with tears in private these days! Xiao Cui had a resentful expression on her face, her mouth was flattened, and she complained quickly.

The man's ugly face was immediately frozen, this, what's the situation? The faces of the two young people next to him who had been eavesdropping on their speeches also froze immediately, and they turned around and passed these words to the familiar brothers, and this group of "** children" almost knew each other, so the news quickly spread among the crowd:

Emperor Zhou E has been privately engaged with Lin Feng for life, and King Zheng Li Yu also admires Emperor Zhou E's talent very much, and has often come to ask for advice recently.

Although this group of pig brothers is relatively salty and wet, they still have the most basic political sensitivity! This, this, His Royal Highness King Zheng, the most favored by the saint, seems to be competing with Lin Feng, who is the most famous in the world, for a woman, and the two are still masters and apprentices, this is by no means a big pit that ordinary people can mix casually!

Therefore, when Emperor Zhou E's concert just ended, a group of pig brothers who were sitting on pins and needles got up and resigned, almost snatching the door, and even the earnest retention of Situ Zhouzong, who was ill, could not slow them down a little.

As soon as he left the Zhou Mansion, Li Jingqian, the king of Chu, who was pulled by a group of gentlemen to see the excitement, turned around and ran to King Zheng's mansion and told his nephew about the ridiculous scene that had just happened.

Hearing this, Li Yu's whole person was stunned for a long time, pulled up his uncle, who was still laughing wildly, and entered the palace overnight to ask to see his father, asking his father to set a family affair for him as soon as possible, as long as it is not the daughter of the Situ family, anyone else can do it!

Li Jing listened to the reason for the matter with a frosty face, and smashed a few Tianshui Bi teacups that had newly entered the palace, and couldn't stand Li Yu's bitter pleading, nodding in agreement!

On the afternoon of April 10, Sun Sheng, the right servant of Shangshu who sent an envoy to Hou Zhou, hurried back to Jinling to resume his life, and proposed to Li Jing in the imperial study the conditions proposed by Hou Zhou: either send Lin Feng's people to Tokyo City, or send Lin Feng's head, otherwise see you on the battlefield!

Li Jing was suddenly shocked, in the eyes of the people in the upper echelons of the Hou Zhou, this Lin Feng was so important?

At the moment when Li Jing was stunned, Sun Sheng told his greatest impression in the Later Zhou Dynasty: The Later Zhou Dynasty had a deep study of Lin Feng's many reform measures, represented by the Zuo Counselor and the Privy Counsellor Tuwang Pu, and many important ministers successively invited themselves to private banquets, constantly exploring the process and details of the reform of the Southern Tang Dynasty.

This is a very important signal! With the strength of the north, he still attaches so much importance to Lin Feng's reform measures, and if Datang does not speed up the progress of reform, it may be passive! Such a thought came to Li Jing's mind. Suddenly, Li Jing realized that he could no longer deliberately suppress Lin Feng!

Immediately afterwards, Sun Sheng expressed his other feelings: because of the fall of Jinzhou City and Hedong Sanzhou, the civil and military forces in the Later Zhou Dynasty were very hostile to him, especially some military generals, so they almost drew their swords in front of him. If this atmosphere continues, I'm afraid that Hou Zhou will have a battle against Nantang sooner or later!

Regarding the threat of war in the coming weeks, Li Jing has been instilled by Lin Feng several times, and he is already somewhat immune to this matter in his heart. Besides, now that the Southern Tang Dynasty first collected Chudi, then collected the Qingyuan Army, and then took Fuzhou, and even included Chaozhou in the Southern Han Dynasty, the overall situation is so good, the cowardice in my heart for the next week is no longer so heavy, and I even have a little anticipation! In Lin Feng's words, as long as Nantang successfully withstood the first attack of the Hou Zhou army, it would be regarded as officially embarking on the road to world domination!

Sun Sheng's face was solemn, and he said his inner thoughts: "Hou Zhou is strong and ambitious, as long as the country is stabilized, it will definitely wave the army south, and the shot will be thunderous, and Huainan Jiangbei, which is basically no natural danger to defend, will become our biggest weakness!"

Now, Liu Yanzhen, the original assassin of Shouzhou, and the Shouzhou army are overwhelmed, and the candidates here must be cautious! In Weichen's view, this person must have a strategic vision, attach great importance to the upcoming war, be good at training, be brave and good at fighting, be able to attack and defend, and have strong appeal. ”

It's not just a few, it's just a handful! Li Jing sighed secretly in his heart, at this moment, the only candidates he could think of in his heart were Li Jingda, the king of Hubei, Liu Renzhen, the envoy of Wuchang Jiedu, Chen Xu, the envoy of Jianzhou Jiedu, He Jingzhu, the assassin of Chuzhou and the envoy of Chuzhou's regimental training, Huangfuhui, the envoy of Fenghua Junjiedu, and a few other people from Liao Liao, of course, there was another person he was reluctant to accept - Lin Feng!

But the facts are there, Li Jingda is in charge of the Jiangyin army, and he wants to protect strategic places such as the eastern capital and the mouth of the river, and he is suppressing Wu Yue, so he can't move easily; Liu Renzhen has already served as the envoy of the Tanzhou Festival, and Chen Yu has also served as the envoy of the Zhangwu Festival, and it is impossible to find someone who can replace them for a while, and they cannot move easily; And He Jingzhu and Huang Fuhui are old, more than enough, and the attack is insufficient, so it seems that only Lin Feng is the most suitable for the harsh conditions proposed by Sun Sheng.

Li Jing thought about it for a long time, but finally did not answer this question, boasted about the boss's loyalty to the country, and asked the boss to go home and rest for two days before going to court.

Sun Sheng, who returned to the mansion, wrote two small notes and instructed his cronies to send them to Situ Zhouzong's Mansion and Lin Feng's Mansion respectively.

When Xi Mucheng received this note in the Lin Mansion, he immediately wrote the words "Sincere as you wish" on the note, found the four brothers of Chen Fei who were exercising in the mansion, and asked them to ride south immediately, and be sure to send the note to Lin Feng.

Because they were not taken south to fight, the four brothers, who had long been suffocated in the mansion, were very excited, simply packed their bags, and immediately rode out of Jinling City and galloped south.
