Chapter Seventy-Five: Talking about the Past Days

When An Zheng got the news of the sudden death of Zhuge Yan, an old minister of the Three Dynasties, it didn't have much impact. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He knew that Zhuge Yan, an old minister who could survive the death of two Yan kings and still had a certain status in the court, naturally had something extraordinary. But after all, he is already very old, and there is no need to pay special attention to such things as birth, old age, sickness and death. If Zhuge Yan was younger, then there might be people who sighed. But Zhuge Yan's death is not a bad thing for many people in the court.

Because, vacate a place.

It is said that the Manchu Dynasty went to the civil and military capitals, and Zhuge Mansion was particularly lively.

An Zheng didn't even associate Zhuge Yan's death with Chen Shaobai, he was not an immortal, how could he connect such two lines.

An Zheng didn't understand Zhuge Yan, nor did he understand Chen Shaobai.

However, because of this incident, the assessment of the martial arts academy has been postponed a little, and the specific time for the re-holding will have to wait for the notice. Zhuge Yan has been in the court for decades as the prime minister of Yan State, and his protΓ©gΓ©s are all over the court and the opposition at the most beautiful time. But later, it was either because of his big move, that King Yan had to start suppressing it. Zhuge Yan's wisdom is not comparable to ordinary people, and after sensing that something was wrong, he took the initiative to write a letter to resign from all positions of real power, only retaining the position of the dean of the Tai Academy, and asked King Yan to allow him to teach and educate people.

As soon as this recital went up, King Yan was grateful for his many years of credit, but it was a little difficult to start. weighed it again and again, and dismissed some of Zhuge Yan's cronies, but in the end, Zhuge Yan retained the position of prime minister. However, in order to check and balance, King Yan changed the prime minister system to the left and right ministers, and selected another important minister of the court to serve as the left minister, and since then, Zhuge Yan's power has been gradually reduced, and his power has been gradually hollowed out.

But the tree has big roots and deep roots, after all, after so many years in the court, even if there is no real power, it can still call the wind and rain.

Zhuge Yan died suddenly, and some sensitive people thought of Empress Dowager Su, but they didn't dare to say anything nonsense.

A year ago, Su Mao was promoted to Prime Minister Zuo. A year later, Su Zong was about to be appointed as a general. At this juncture, the old minister Zhuge Yan suddenly died, which is indeed a bit subtle.

It is said that on that day, the Queen Mother Su Qingnuan and Yan Wang Mu Changyan all went to Zhuge Mansion and stayed in the mansion for a day and a night before leaving.

This honor is unprecedented.

An Zheng sent someone to inquire about the news, but these things were still far away from them, so they didn't care very much. He prefers to think more about how to enter the Martial Academy safely next, and how to enter the Qiucheng Ceremony safely. How can I infiltrate the power class of Dayan, and how can I save Xiao Qidao's mother from the prison.

It was impossible to go directly to see Mu Changyan, even if Mu Changyan saw him, would he dare to release Aunt Ye from the prison? It has been more than three years, if he had the courage to do it, he would have done it a long time ago.

An Zheng didn't know, in fact, Mu Changyan saw him on the day he entered the city, but the Yan King, who had been polished off all his sharpness by the Empress Dowager Su for more than three years, had already blurred his memory. Mu Changyan only felt that the word Apocalypse was a little familiar to Mu Changyan until now, and he forgot about the dilapidated martial arts academy opposite the Phantom World Academy. Perhaps, he didn't forget, but he didn't believe in his heart that An Zheng and they could really create miracles.

An Zheng left Du Slender and thin to practice in the sect, taking advantage of this time when all the attention in Fang Gu City was on the Zhuge Mansion, he asked Lao Huo to find a way to place the Reverse Heaven Seal.

For more than three years, they have practiced dozens or even hundreds of times more than other cultivators, and if they can't achieve anything, then they are sorry for the Defiant Heaven Seal.

An Zheng left the Heavenly Apocalypse Sect by himself, changed into a simple but neat and clean black cloth clothes, stepped on a pair of black-faced and white-soled cloth shoes with a thousand layers of soles, and walked towards Mingwen Street with a black oil-paper umbrella in the drizzle. In fact, An Zheng came to Fang Gucheng not only for Xiao Qidao, but also for himself. When he was ambushed in Cangman Mountain, he was on this side close to Yan Kingdom.

At that time, the battle was so fierce and magnificent, it was impossible for the cultivators of the Yan Kingdom not to know about it.

The reason why An Zheng came without sleep at that time was because the Holy Emperor of Daxi sent someone to tell him that the seventh son of the emperor, Huiwang Chen Chongqi, was attacked in the Yan Kingdom. Chen Chongqi is one of An Zheng's best friends, and the two have an unparalleled fit in many ways. They talked about everything, An Zheng once said that in this world, he knows himself better, it is Huiwang Chen Chongqi.

At that time, the sixteen countries fought fiercely, and the combined forces of Yan, Zhao, and Zhuo advanced all the way, almost destroying the Yongguo.

The Holy Emperor of Daxi was quite fond of his seventh son, Chen Chongqi, so he planned to send Chen Chongqi as an envoy of Daxi to mediate the war in the Sixteen Kingdoms.

Daxi's strategy is that it can be fought, but no country can be destroyed. Because Daxi needs these small countries to keep fighting and dying, only in this way will these small countries not pose any threat to Daxi. And in order to add some political bargaining chips and add some credit to Chen Chongqi, the envoy who should not have served as a prince was appointed to Chen Chongqi.

When the news came back to Daxi, it was said that Chen Chongqi was suddenly attacked when he was visiting Yan Kingdom.

An Zheng did not come with the team, but arrived first by himself in the starry night. As a result, when he entered the territory of Yan Kingdom, the people of Yan Kingdom told him that the prince of Daxi was trapped somewhere in Cangman Mountain. That place is actually a section of the Yanshan Mountain Range, which is a branch of the Cangman Mountain. The Yanshan Mountain Range is in the north of the Yan Kingdom, and the nearest place is only thirty miles away from Fanggu City.

After the analysis of the dispute, in fact, he was calculated from the beginning, and because he cared about it, he ignored too many flaws. With his strength at that time, he was found by the Yan people before he entered the Yan Kingdom, and then told him where Chen Chongqi was trapped...... This is clearly unreasonable.

As a result, he was in a hurry, so he didn't think about these at all, and rushed directly into Cangman Mountain.

In the Battle of Cangman Mountain, he fought dozens of masters alone, but he never saw Chen Chongqi appear. Even if Chen Chongqi is not a master by his side, there are several terrifying great cultivators. An Zheng hadn't seen any of them, so at that moment he already understood what was going on.

His best friend, using his own bait, caught An Zheng.

Therefore, Yan Guo must have been aware of it at that time. Otherwise, the first seat of the Daxi Ming Law Division fell in Cangman Mountain, and this incident alone was enough to make Daxi Xing's troops go north and directly crush Yan Guo into powder. But none of this happened, which means that the incident back then was aimed at An Zheng from beginning to end. Someone wants to get rid of An Zheng, and Chen Chongqi is one of them.

But until now, An Zheng has not figured out what the reason for Chen Chongqi to get rid of him is.

If Chen Chongqi becomes the crown prince and inherits the throne of the Holy Emperor of Daxi in the future, with his relationship with An Zheng, won't An Zheng do his best to support him?

An Zheng didn't understand, and now his strength was not enough to go back to Daxi to investigate, so now he will find out what he can find out like a cocoon.

At the beginning, the Yan Kingdom must have been instructed, and even among the great cultivators who besieged An Zheng, there were people from the Yan Kingdom.

If you want to find out these things, you must enter the court of Yan Kingdom.

So An Zheng wants to see Zhuang Feifei, that woman has a deep background, and should be able to get some news from her.

Just when An Zheng was walking towards Jushang Courtyard, in the Tianji Palace of Fang Gu City, the matter about An Zheng was actually not over yet, maybe it was another beginning.

Empress Dowager Su lay on her side on the soft collapse with her eyes closed, and three little maids waited by her side. One pounded his legs, one rubbed his waist, and the other beat his back, and the three of them were so light that they didn't even dare to breathe loudly. These are three girls who look no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, all of them are beautiful. But under this heavy pressure, everyone's face is not good-looking, as white as if they are sick.

With a wave of her hand, she motioned for the three little maids to go out.

Prime Minister Su Mao sat not far away and took a sip of tea: "Queen Mother, Zhuge Yan is dead, that matter should almost be over, right? King Daxi Hui sent people to constantly put pressure, but he was also afraid that this matter would be leaked out. After all, it's dead...... But the first seat of the Da Ximing Law Division, a pivotal big man. ”

"Where are the big guys. ”

Empress Dowager Su closed her eyes and sneered: "To be dead is to be dead, and there is no use anymore." However, this first lord is indeed remarkable, and this matter has not ended after being dead for several years. It is rumored that there are still many people in Daxi who want to avenge him, and they are constantly putting pressure on the Daxi Dynasty. His Royal Highness King Hui is probably also a little annoyed, so let us deal with everything that should be dealt with. ”

Her tone calmed down: "But I've wanted to kill Zhuge Yan for a long time, but I haven't been able to find a chance." Zhuge Yan himself is a cultivator of the Xiaoman Realm, almost at the peak, and it is not easy to deal with. Besides, there are so many masters in his house, who knows what kind of high-rollers are hidden among the doormen. Zhuge Yan died suddenly this time, which saved a lot of trouble. ”

Su Mao asked, "Zhuge Yan is really sick and dead?"

Empress Dowager Su said: "I asked people to examine the body, and it was indeed sick and dead. At his age, dying of a sudden illness was nothing. ”

Su Zong, who was sitting on the other side, said: "In this way, we will be able to give an explanation to Daxi." But what is not satisfying is ...... What King Hui promised has not been fulfilled until now. ”

Empress Dowager Su sat up violently: "Su Zong, I'm going to promote you to general, can't you be more mature? Do you think King Hui will really give us those things? Even if he doesn't give it, with Daxi's strength and his status as the prince of Daxi, can we not compromise? If you have been so superficial, how can you deal with Fang Zhiyou?"

Su Zong hurriedly got up: "My sister is right, I wrote it down." ”

"Call me the Queen Mother!"

Empress Dowager Su's face turned cold: "Family affairs and state affairs, you have to distinguish clearly!"

Su Zong's face turned pale, and he lowered his head and said, "Minister...... Wrong. ”

Empress Dowager Su softened down and said: "Let's just talk about this matter in private, if any of you dare to say it nonsense, even if you are my cronies, I will not be polite." Zhuge Yan, who was involved in this matter, is dead. There is also a military secretary Hao Ping'an, who can't think of a reason to kill him for the time being. But don't forget, there are still confidants who are not involved but know!"

She looked at Su Zong and Su Mao: "If these two people don't get rid of them, I won't be able to sleep peacefully for a day." Hao Ping'an is in charge of the military department, and the army is full of his people, which is why I asked you to be a general. But I know that with your qualifications and means, you are definitely not Hao Ping'an's opponent. Never mind...... In the future, the mother country will send talents. ”

Su Zong knelt down with a plop: "I beg the Queen Mother to give me a chance to share my worries for the Queen Mother." ”

Empress Dowager Su snorted coldly: "I only know that I drink and have fun all day long, if you don't change it, I really can't use you." ”

"The ministers will reform themselves and not disappoint the Queen Mother. ”

"Get up. ”

Empress Dowager Su waved her hand: "It's not the most difficult to get rid of Hao Ping'an, it's difficult to know Fang Zhiyou." Fang Zhiji's cultivation strength is unfathomable, and it is too difficult to kill him. ”

She was a little irritable, and after being silent for a while, she said: "Take advantage of the absence of Fang Zhizhi in Fang Gucheng, solve Hao Ping'an as soon as possible, and take all the rights of the military department." Then take back the military power of Fang Zhiyou, and it is not too late to kill again. On the side of King Daxi Hui, I will send someone close to me to reply. Fight for it, both of you, and don't expect me to give you orders for everything. If everything depends on me, what do I want you to do? I'm not raising children, I'm going to need help. I can't share my worries, but I am worried everywhere, and there is really no need for you to stay if you continue like this. ”

Su Mao and Su Zong stood up, clenched their fists and bowed their heads: "The minister is incompetent." ”

"Let's go, let's go, it's annoying to look at you...... That's right. ”

Empress Dowager Su suddenly thought of something: "There is another person, how can I forget, the living dead man in Jushangyuan is also a disaster to keep." ”

At the same time, An Zheng walked outside the gate of Jushangyuan.
