……

Evening.

Outside the Imperial Capital, in the NightRaid Stronghold, in the Great Hall.

Willow and Luo Fan walked in with low faces, while the rest of the NightRaid waited for the two to come back for dinner.

Seeing the appearance of the two wolves, Najeta immediately asked, "Are you two in danger?" How did it get like this? ”

Luo Fan said depressedly: "What is the dangerous species, the two of us have met people who are even more terrifying than the dangerous species......"

Liu Shu sighed and told the general story of the battle with Zhang Chai, and in the end, she gritted her teeth and said: "I and the big bald head even used the hidden skills, but we still couldn't beat Zhang Chai, and the big bald head almost died...... Alas, Zhang Chai's defensive ability and recovery ability are too changeable. It's stated! There's nothing we can do about it. ”

Gu Xinyan looked at Liu Shu and Luo Fan coldly, and said coldly: "Who asked you to kill Zhang Chai in private?" ”

Luo Fan rubbed the top of his head helplessly, and said with a wry smile: "Miss Gu! You're mistaken, it's not us who killed him, it's him who intercepts us! ”

"You two are asking for trouble." Gu Xinyan snorted coldly and didn't buy it.

The red pupil looked at Gu Xinyan strangely, she keenly sensed something unusual from Gu Xinyan, and couldn't help but wonder: "Gu Xinyan, you seem to be very interested in the envoy of the First Emperor?" Is it my delusion? ”

Gu Xinyan didn't want to hide it, and said frankly: "I am an old acquaintance with him. ”

"Really?" Red Hitomi said thoughtfully: "However, he is our enemy, can you make up your mind to swing a knife at him?" ”

Boom.

Gu Xinyan clenched her palm, this was the real problem she was most unwilling to face, she was silent for a long time, and said slowly: "I won't violate my principles, if I really want to meet him one day, I will make this determination." ”

With a little worry in her red eyes, she reached out and pressed Gu Xinyan's shoulder, and said softly: "If you can't make up your mind at that time, I'll help you." ”

"No, you don't." Gu Xinyan refused, her eyes were very complicated.

……

At night, the moon and stars are scarce.

The imperial capital, the imperial city, the minister's residence, in the study.

Chancellor Earnest sat at his desk, reviewing the mountain of notes.

Knock knock.

At this moment, there was an unhurried knock at the door.

"Come in." Minister Earnest put down the fold in his hand and looked up, only to see Zhang Chai pushing the door in, Minister Earnest said lightly: "I heard that Zanke was killed." ”

Minister Ornest's eyeliner is all over the imperial capital, and it is naturally not uncommon to be well-informed, otherwise Minister Ornest would not be alive now, Zhang Chai said indifferently: "Zanke is always a small person, it's not worth mentioning, let's discuss big things." ”

"As soon as you come up, you want to play the main event, you are even more anxious than me." Minister Earnest smiled, took out a piece of fresh meat, took it in his mouth and chewed it a few times, and said vaguely: "You sit down for a while...... Wait until I'm done with the folds. ”

After speaking, Minister Earnest buried his head and continued to review the recital.

After these days of contact, Zhang Chai knows in his heart that Minister Earnest is not a promiscuous person as rumored by the outside world, in addition to loving meat, most of the women in the mansion are just used as 'decorations' by Minister Earnest for collection and appreciation, which shows that Minister Earnest's life style is very regular.

However, this is not unusual, a person who has been in the imperial officialdom for decades and has sat on the throne of a minister must not be a simple person, how can he be measured by unreliable rumors from the outside world.

Minister Earnest looked at the twists and turns, and suddenly muttered: "The foreign nations that rebelled in the north have been defeated by General Estes, and it may not be long before the war in the north will end......"

Zhang Chai heard what Minister Earnest was saying, and he asked directly, "You seem to be very scheming about General Estes?" ”

"Hmph, Estes, that super S Ice Queen, is a killer who only knows how to make wars, and she doesn't care about politics and power at all, winning battles and ravaging the enemy is all she has, will I care about her? However......" Minister Earnest changed his words, "Estes has a good personal relationship with some members of the royal family, and if something goes wrong with your plan, and some of the royal family escapes, it will be tricky." ”

Zhang Chai speculated: "According to your meaning, General Estes may collude with the people of the royal family?" ”

"As I said, Estes is only interested in war and killing." Chancellor Earnest voiced his fears, "I am afraid that she will be used by the royal family to turn against me, and then she will be a terrible opponent." ”

Zhang Chai was puzzled: "As long as you don't let go of a fish that slips through the net, then there's no need to worry so much, right?" ”

Minister Earnest frowned and said in a deep voice: "To tell you the truth, I am not absolutely sure that I can control all the members of the royal family, and if things change, the empire is likely to fall into large-scale civil strife again like five hundred years ago...... Moreover, this is different from the past, and now there are rebellious alien peoples in the north, south, and west, as well as pirates on the southeast coast, and some clowns who claim to be revolutionary. ”

When Zhang Chai heard this, he felt quite irritated in his heart, he wanted to get rid of the tumor of the empire of the underground trade organization, but he still had to take care of the Yan zhòng crisis that might appear in the empire in the future.

At this moment, Zhang Chai really realized how difficult it was for Minister Onest, in the position of minister, in the face of such an endgame, there are too many things to consider and scruples, I am afraid that in this position, no one can do better than Minister Onest.

The two of them began to think about their own problems, and the atmosphere instantly became cold.

Chancellor Earnest tensed his old face, and looked a little exhausted as he tiredly flipped through one book after another.

It wasn't until all the notes had been reviewed that Minister Earnest broke the silence, "ZZ, you sue me, are you sure you can solve Bud?" ”

Although Zhang Chai didn't really fight with Bude, he still had a certain understanding of Bude's strength through Bude's instructions last time, so he raised his eyebrows confidently and said: "100% sure." ”

"Good!" Minister Earnest slapped the table and stood up, "Although I am not sure that I can absolutely control the royal family, but! We have another way to go......"

Speaking of this, Minister Earnest's old face showed a chilling grim look.

Zhang Chai vaguely understood something, and couldn't help frowning: "What is the road?" ”

Minister Earnest slowly raised a large fat hand, made a motion to wipe his neck, and said in a dark voice: "- Bloodbath of the royal family!" (To be continued.) )
