The monkey demon general stopped his movements, looked at Yue Heng with a strange expression, and asked, "You said I caught the wrong person?"

Yue Heng nodded solemnly and said, "That's right, it's useless for you to catch me, killing me will cause a greater counterattack by the Terrans." Lord Demon General, I am willing to cooperate with you to go to the Chu Nan Front, as long as you let me go, I will never leak your whereabouts, and I can even say good things for you!"

The monkey demon grinned, the jagged yellow teeth in his mouth were extremely eye-catching, and a cloud of turbid gas erupted, which complemented the rich pungent smell on its body, causing Yue Heng to almost gag.

Just when Yue Heng thought he had persuaded the other party, the monkey demon suddenly stopped laughing and listened quietly.

An extremely small sound came from afar, and it was the tracking wolfdog that made it particularly annoying, and the pursuers approached again!

The monkey demon grabbed Yue Heng and tied him to his back like a cargo, and said gloomily: "Although I don't understand, there are people in the clan who understand your story, let me let you go impossible, don't play tricks with me!"

Yue Heng secretly complained to himself, the trouble came from his mouth, this heavy bet even lost his underwear, his self-made cleverness did not get him out of danger at all, but even more dangerous!

......

Chudu Imperial Palace, not long after dawn, just arrived, the Ministry of Culture, Rites, Military Affairs and other important departments were already full of people.

The letters and newspapers in and out of the various ministries were in a hurry, and the officials were constantly arguing, and they had to come up with a concrete solution before the early dynasty, otherwise they would still argue endlessly in front of the king of Chu You, and they would have a negative impression of autonomy and inaction.

The latest news came from Qi County every half an hour. King Qin's army strongly blocked the entire Qicheng. Thousands of iron-blooded soldiers were dispatched from Chudu to take over the military affairs of Qicheng. Chu Yaotian sent his most important deputy to Qicheng to take charge.

But the discerning people have noticed that although the seventh-level commander is sitting in Qicheng, he is really just sitting in the town, constantly cleaning the Qicheng military system, removing some key position officers, and promoting some of the Qin Wangjun's cronies, and the seventh-level commander does not even help to assist in the pursuit of the monkey demon, which makes people feel intrigued.

Because the only hostage is the one who has recently become famous all over the world. Yue Heng, a literati genius who has just risen, is extremely active in the world, offering advice and suggestions for rescuing Yue Heng.

Chen Zhenchu, a sixth-level auxiliary hall who was well-known in the literati world, was once again harassed by the low-level civil officials below all night, most of them persuaded him to make a statement to support the rescue of the human genius Yue Heng, otherwise it would chill the hearts of the people in the world.

"Fame is a double-edged sword, it can make you stand in front of thousands of people to be worshiped and admired, but it can also put a heavy shackle on your back and weigh you down......"

Chen Zhenchu didn't close his eyes all night. He was leaning back in his chair in a corner of the chamber of the Military Aircraft Division. Closing his eyes slightly, he let other colleagues quarrel, but he rubbed his temples and gave birth to this feeling tiredly.

It's just that he wants to hide and not show up, but others don't let him get his wish, and they all want to push him out.

"Lord Chen, this morning, why don't you report on behalf of the Military Aircraft Department of the Ministry of War?" Tian Wanshou, the left attendant of the Ministry of War, slapped the table and said loudly, suppressing the other colleagues who were arguing.

After scolding a few words in his heart, Chen Zhenchu said in a tired voice: "Lord Tian, everyone knows that I am just a right attendant of the military department who doesn't care about things, and my work on weekdays focuses on the teaching of culture and warfare in the Chu State Academy, and I am not qualified to speak on the major affairs of the military department! Aren't there still Shangshu Zhang and Tian in the military department, why do you let me report on behalf of the Military Aircraft Department?"

Tian Wanshou said sadly: "Lord Zhang has been very busy these days, and he has every opportunity, and there was such a serious event yesterday, and he has rushed to Qicheng overnight to help supervise the war." And my Lao Tian is a martial artist, extremely vulgar, I will send troops to lead the team to kill people, but I can report to the court, I'm afraid I can't even speak clearly, or you Lord Chen is better at it. ”

Old fox!

A group of officials from the Military Aircraft Department secretly cursed in their hearts, Zhang Shangshu didn't sit in the court and went to the front line to investigate, isn't this nonsense? Qin Wang Jun only recognized Chu Yaotian's warrant, and anyone who went would go in vain, and Shangshu of the Military Department was no exception, this was obviously looking for an excuse to evade responsibility, who knows where Zhang Shangshu ran to hide!

Tian Wanshou is not a good bird, he says that he is a rough person, as if he is really a martial artist who doesn't understand anything, in fact?

On weekdays, Tian Wanshou has the loudest voice when he competes for merit and power in the military aircraft department, and he is a good hand at scolding people and using force, and today even the guards of the military aircraft department know that this kind of thing is the easiest to offend people when the court makes a statement, either offending Zhenyuan Army, or offending Qin Wangjun, and offending King Chu You, Tian Wanshou wants to slip away and throw the hot potato to Chen Dafutang, is Chen Zhenchu a fool?

How could Chen Zhenchu not see through this? It's just that he was used to it and didn't bother to debunk it.

He smiled and said: "Chen was left by the Chu State Academy Palace to discuss all night last night, and at this time, his head was dizzy, his preface did not match his words, and his thinking was in chaos. If Lord Tian had to let Chen report to the court, it would not be impossible, but if Chen said something inappropriate, please ask Lord Tian to say a few kind words in front of Lord Shangshu, and all of your colleagues can testify! In addition, it is better for Lord Tian to make it clear in front of all of your colleagues how the military department should unify its words, so that there will be no ambiguity among everyone, and I will not make mistakes in the court!"

"This ......"

Tian Wanshou looked at Chen Zhenchu's playful face, scolded a few words of old loach in his heart, and didn't dare to agree.

Chen Zhenchu smiled and closed his voice, and quickly straightened his face, he only paused for a few breaths, and the military aircraft department quarreled again.

For a civil official like him, who has a false reputation but no real power, staying out of the matter is the wisest choice, although it is possible to get a negative evaluation of being cold-blooded and arrogant, but it is better than offending other major forces.

Therefore, Chen Zhenchu could only support Yue Heng mentally, with guilt, and protect himself.

It's hard for anyone caught in the whirlpool of power to do it!

The quarrelsome and inconclusive Military Aircraft Department is just a microcosm of the major departments of the Chu State, and Chen Dafutang, who is wise and self-protecting, is only a representative of tens of millions of people, and the incident of the monkey demon kidnapping Yue Heng is just a façade, and what is hidden under this undercurrent is the high-level power struggle of the Chu State, no one dares to get involved easily, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will be hanged to the bones.

The struggle between Chu Yaotian of the Qinwang Army and the Mengzhan of the Zhenyuan Army has a long history, and the royal Qinwang Army is in the hands of the Zhenyuan Army, and the Zhenyuan Army is external, and the desires/hopes of the people have never been satisfied. (To be continued......)
