Jingqi Road, Linchang, Ming Wangfu.

Zhou Shikai was lying in his bedroom, surrounded by six or seven unclothed beauties, some of whom were peeling grapes for him, and some were helping him beat his legs.

Lord Ming, who was enjoying himself to the fullest, sighed and thought of his son who was under the fence of Tai Chung Pass.

"Son, if you can't enjoy it for the time being, then Daddy will replace you. Anyway, our old Zhou family was born to be blessed. If you suffer over there, I will have to be blessed a little more and neutralize it. Zhou Shikai thought so.

Since returning from the Gobi Desert, Zhou Shikai's body has been a little weak, and his hands and feet are often cold.

His feet were resting in the arms of two beautiful women, and the nephrite was warm.

At this time, a little maid came over and knelt on the ground respectfully, "Lord Wang, Lord Zhang Di Zhang asks to see you." ”

Zhou Shikai yawned lazily, "Let him in." ”

"Yes."

After a while, Zhang Di trotted to King Ming's bed, looking at his nose, nose, mouth, mouth, and heart, and he didn't dare to look directly with his head down.

As Zhou Shikai's most favored minister, Zhang Di understands his master's character, that is, he is very stingy.

Even if it was these maids whose names he couldn't even remember, if any of them took one more look, Zhou Shikai might be furious and kill.

Zhou Shikai ate a grape, then spit the seed into the maid's mouth, and then asked leisurely, "Lao Zhang, what's wrong?" ”

"Lord Wang, Gu Qingshan has entered the city."

Zhou Shikai suddenly broke free from the maid beside him, got up, and said excitedly: "Then the old Wang Ba has entered the city?" ”

Zhang Di nodded vigorously.

"Okay...... Zhou Shikai suddenly waved his hand, "You all go down, I'm going to talk to Master Zhang about things." ”

So the maids on the bed and under the bed blessed their princes, and then bowed down and withdrew.

Now in the bedroom, which was as spacious as the main hall, only their master and servant were left.

Zhou Shikai jumped off the bed, walked barefoot in front of Zhang Di, and asked mysteriously, "Our friend, have you arrived?" ”

Zhang Di also nodded excitedly, "It's all here, it seems that there are a total of a hundred people, all of whom are elites over there." ”

Zhou Shikai was a little unhappy, "A hundred people? Is it possible? The guards around Lao Wang Ba are not vegetarians, especially that one...... What's it called? ”

"The prince is talking about the deputy commander of the Ouchi guard, the Nine Realms martial artist Si Tao? That guy is really powerful, and I don't know what His Majesty the Emperor likes about Gu Qingshan, and even Si Tao was sent out to protect him. ”

Zhou Shikai snorted coldly, "It's not to prevent me? It's better that they kill this Si Tao together this time, then I'll have no worries at all. ”

Zhang Di hurriedly arched his hand and said: "The prince is blessed with all the heavens, and his wishes will definitely come true." ”

"Hahaha, okay, then I'll believe you once. Okay, help me bring Gu Qingshan over, and I'll see him in the middle hall. ”

"Yes."

In the evening, Gu Qingshan and his entourage of dozens of people arrived at the Ming Wang's Mansion with great fanfare.

This is the first time that the Zhendong general has stepped through this gate since taking office in the east.

Zhou Shikai had never invited him before, and he didn't bother to come.

After all, Gu Qingshan's main task in the eastern realm was to oppose Zhou Shikai and restrain this invincible Ming King.

This time, Zhou Shikai suddenly invited him to his mansion to narrate, which surprised Gu Qingshan at the same time, he was also very vigilant, suspecting that this surnamed Zhou had no good intentions, maybe he was holding back the bad.

So this time, Gu Qingshan brought a large army of dozens of people to the door, which had two meanings.

One is to draw a clear line with the other party, so that outsiders can see that the narrative of the Ming Palace's mansion is public, and it is not a private meeting, which is also to reassure the court.

As for the second point, it is to let everyone know that he has come to the Ming Palace, if there is really an accident tonight, then Zhou Shikai will definitely not be able to escape.

After doing these two things, Gu Qingshan could frankly accept the invitation and go to meet with Zhou Shikai.

The place where the two met was in the middle hall of the Ming Palace, and the master of the inner house, Si Tao, sent Gu Qingshan all the way to the middle hall before turning around and guarding outside.

As soon as he stepped in, Zhou Shikai greeted him warmly and shouted "Lao Gu" repeatedly.

Gu Qingshan, who was accustomed to-for-tat confrontation with Zhou Shikai, was a little uncomfortable for a while, opened his mouth, and before he could speak, he was grabbed by his arm by his rival and pulled inside to sit opposite each other.

"Old Gu, brother, how is my mansion?"

Gu Qingshan nodded and popped out two words, "Spectacular." ”

"Hahaha, this will be your brother in the future, you have to protect it."

"Lord Wang...... What are you? Gu Qingshan was taken aback by Zhou Shikai's words, five points puzzled, five points vigilant.

Zhou Shikai laughed dryly twice, quite desolate.

"Brother, I was a little hostile to you before, you don't complain about your brother, do you?"

"Huh? This...... Where is this, Lord Wang? I...... I also did something wrong. ”

Zhou Shikai waved his hand like a charitable brother, and said slowly: "I, I have lived to this age, and I finally understand it." This time, my son was arrested by the Qianguo people, and now I don't know whether he is alive or dead, and now I have pondered the taste, in this life, what glory, wealth, fame and fortune are, all of them are fleeting, and life does not bring death without taking it. ”

While opening his heart, the old fox squeezed out two tears.

Gu Qingshan was a little stunned by this set of offensives, "Your Highness, he has his own heavenly help, and the prince doesn't have to worry too much." ”

The matter of King Xiao Ming being imprisoned in Dachong Pass, few people on Sheng Jun's side except Zhou Shikai and a few cronies knew about it, and even Gu Qingshan was always kept in the dark.

Now in his mind, he is still haunting the sentence that Zhou Shikai just said, "In the future, this will be your brother." ”

Zhou Shikai patted Gu Qingshan's shoulder and said sincerely: "To put it mildly, I know what you were sent here for, look at me." Originally, I may have had some ambitions, but now that I don't even have a son, I don't want anything else. So I also decided, in the future, this eastern army will be handed over to you, brother. ”

"Lord ......"

Gu Qingshan was about to speak in a hurry, but was interrupted by Zhou Shikai raising his hand.

"Listen to me first, I gave you such a big gift, it's not for nothing, and I also need you to help me do something."

Standing on the top of the Eastern Territory, the picture of commanding an army of 600,000 flashed from Gu Qingshan's mind in an instant, making him a little fluttery.

"Lord Wang, you said, as long as my old Gu can do it, I will do my best."

"Then I'll say it...... I know that you have strength in Your Majesty, I just want to ask you to help me say more good things, and in the future, I can give me a small piece of fiefdom for retirement, and I will never think about anything else for the rest of my life. ”

When Gu Qingshan saw his desolate appearance, he really thought that Zhou Shikai was old and lost his son, and he was completely crushed.

A fire of excitement burned inexorably in the heart of the general of Zhendong, who seemed to be able to see his glorious future.

After that, Zhou Shikai talked to him a lot, but Gu Qingshan basically didn't listen to it, just hummed and coped.

When he finally came out of King Ming's mansion, Gu Qingshan felt that he was floating.

I only remember that I promised Zhou Shikai that we would go out hunting together the day after tomorrow.
