The Cheng family was busy building houses, and Zhou Ting was not idle.

After waiting for more than half a month and not seeing King Zhou's move, Zhou Ting lost the mind to continue waiting, recruited a close henchman secret guard, and took a pack of Ning to dismiss him.

"Take it down to the prince's tea, and watch him drink it with your own eyes."

This secret guard is the head of the secret guard beside King Zhou in the past, and since he followed Zhou Ting, he has been a complete Shizi party.

"Whoa."

The Dark Guard came silently, and left silently.

That night, the Zhou Wangfu invited all the doctors in the city to come over, and only one conclusion was reached.

King Zhou suffered a stroke and was paralyzed.

As soon as the conclusion came out, Zhou Ting sealed his mouth and blocked all news about King Zhou; The doctors are interested, and they don't touch the scales of the prince of Zhou, and what the prince of Zhou says is what he says.

But how could such news really be hidden, but in just two days, the imperial court Eagle Claw, which was lurking in the northwest, got the news that King Zhou was not doing well; On the way to pass the book, the pigeon was shot by the secret guards of the Zhou Palace, and one person was arrested.

In the next half month, along various lines, dozens of different henchmen were secretly arrested.

Among them are foreign finesse.

After these people were arrested, they were all tortured, and they were secretly executed after pulling out the information they could; The people outside were not alarmed, and by the time the masters of these people found out, it was already two months later.

In two months, all those who reached out to the northwest had an accident at home; Either there is an accident within the family, or the male member of the family encounters such and such problems outside.

If it is light, it will be dismissed and sent back to its hometown, and at worst, the nine clans will be punished.

When Kyoto was in turmoil, Zhou Ting firmly controlled the entire northwest military power, and when the turmoil in Kyoto stopped, and when they came to their senses, the northwest was no longer something they could meddle in.

Five of the manpower placed by the imperial court was also removed, and after the calm in Kyoto was restored, the imperial court could only contact officials in the marginal areas if it wanted to insert people to come in; can't enter the core of power in the northwest, and there is not much difference between installing people and not inserting them, at most they can keep an eye on the movements of King Zhou's son.

After cleaning up the northwest and relieving the internal worries, Zhou Ting set his sights on the external troubles.

Seeing that winter is approaching, the foreigners on the grassland are short of money and food, and there is bound to be a war.

Zhou Ting did not intend to lengthen the battle line, for the sake of now, it was to end the war; Let the people of the northwest recuperate and avoid the court from being a demon.

After finishing the military affairs in the northwest, Zhou Ting finally found time to rest for two days, he took fruits, cakes, clothes and jewelry and went to Yuzhuang again, and now he doesn't use Yuzhuang to describe the village where the Cheng family lives.

There is an additional village named Chengjiazhuang next to Yuzhuang, where a group of clans surnamed Cheng live.

"Master, Chengjiazhuang has arrived." The carriage stopped at the entrance of the village, not to stand on the side of the carriage to report.

Zhou Ting lifted the curtain and looked out, which was different from the last time he came to Chengjiazhuang; At the entrance of the village, a large stone was erected, carved with the words of Chengjiazhuang, and painted with red lacquer.

The village was noisy, and it was faintly audible and extremely lively.

"Why is it so noisy inside?"

Buwei shook his head, "I don't know, I want to go in like this?" ”

"Let's go inside."

Zhou Ting didn't get out of the carriage, and didn't understand it for his heart, so he said to the horseman: "Hurry up to Chengjiazhuang and go directly to the largest blue brick house in the village." ”

"Yes."

The groom buried himself in the car.

A group of people entered the village, no one cared about the noisy place, and the destination was very clear - Cheng Dazhu's house.

As soon as they saw Cheng Dazhu's house, they heard someone shouting.

"Uncle Yuanxi, Uncle Yuandong, your family is here; A carriage is coming, it seems to be the prince of Zhou."

Several children of seven or eight years old stood at the gate and shouted inside, but they did not enter without permission.

"Lord Dazhu, your family is a guest."

"The prince of Zhou is here!"

They recognized him, the last time he came, he was with the prince of Zhou.

The face is familiar.

Cheng Dazhu's family, who lived in the hospital, heard the movement and ran out to take a look, and their legs were weak.

"Meet the prince."

Father and third brother are not in front of him, he is now the pillar of his wife and son; But he can't stand it! The legs were so weak that he knelt directly.

Feng Juhua also knelt down after being taken, and the brothers Cheng Mingming and Cheng Mingxin were relatively calm.

"The grass people pay a visit to the prince."

In order not to lift the curtain, Zhou Ting walked out of the carriage with a small purple gold sandalwood box, and handed it to Buwei when he stepped on the stool.

Not to help him with a hand box, Zhou Ting stepped on the stool and walked down.

"Please."

Zhou Ting stepped forward and helped Cheng Yuannan with one hand.

Cheng Yuannan looked at the white-skinned and slender hands with distinct bones, and was stunned for a while.

"Thank you, the grass people." Seeing that his father didn't react, Cheng Mingming hurriedly spoke.

Cheng Yuannan came to his senses and hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you, the grass people." ”

"No need to be polite, I don't know the old man, is the old lady okay?" Zhou Ting's face was cold, but his words were polite, and when he came to someone's house, he greeted the old man of the family first.

"Back to the world, I, the grass people's father and mother are very good; Able to eat and drink, and in good health. Cheng Yuannan spoke awkwardly.

Cheng Mingzhi had an urge to support his forehead, "The prince of the world, please, Mingxin will invite the third uncle and the little cousin." ”

"Okay." Cheng Mingxin nodded, turned around and ran away towards Zhou Tingzuo.

I don't think I feel a little more contempt in my heart because I see them so inconsiderate; After all, he was born in a peasant family, and he lacked a lot in etiquette.

"The prince of the world, please." Cheng Yuannan turned sideways to please, and wiped the non-existent sweat on his face when he bent over.

Not to see it in his eyes, he shook his head silently.

The same rice raises a hundred kinds of people, and a family can't raise the same people.

Cheng Xiaoniang and her father are not like this when they face the prince, and this person is not like this when they follow Cheng Yuanxi; The person who can stand in front of him is not there, and when it is time for him to be alone, he shows his timidity.

Zhou Ting walked past him and walked straight into the courtyard.

Cheng Yuannan and the three followed, followed by a team of guards brought by Zhou Ting; Four of them stayed outside to watch the carriage, and half of the other dozen or so followed with their things in their hands.

Walking into the front hall, Zhou Ting was invited to sit in a high position, and as soon as he sat down, his buttocks were not yet hot, when he heard a burst of hurried footsteps.

The empty-handed guards consciously stopped people at the door, and still let them enter the front hall without opening their mouths.

"The grass people and others knocked on the prince."

Cheng Dazhu and the others respectfully prostrate on the ground, Mingyi's hand has been held by Zhou Ting, who strode over, "Yiyi doesn't need to kneel." ”

Mingyi shows his face.

Zhou Ting also had a three-point smile on his face, and said to Cheng Dazhu and the others: "The old man is polite, you all get up." ”

"Yes, thank you."

The crowd stood up and stood with their hands bowed in an orderly manner.

Zhou Ting held the little girl's hand and said bluntly, "I have something to say to Mingyi." ”

Cheng Yuanxi raised his head and wanted to refuse, but Chen Daya grabbed him; Cheng Mingli didn't have so many worries, and strode forward to his sister.

It's just a chapter today, so I'm waiting
