In a magnificent mansion in the capital of God.

"Old Chen, is that little emperor really as powerful as you say?"

The one who spoke was a tall man with a ghostly mask on his face.

"If it weren't so powerful, Li Shifang would have been planted in his hands all at once? Can't even react? ”

Chen Ting, who was sitting on the chair of the Taishi in the middle hall, slowly put down the fragrant tea in his hand and said expressionlessly.

"Also, this little emperor is indeed powerful enough, and he has made such a big power under our noses, and our secret spy department has not noticed the slightest movement."

The tall man wearing the ghost head mask looked very puzzled in his tone, you must know that this secret spy department is a secret spy agency secretly established by the King of Jin in Bingzhou with the help of the Liao State, and it has been ten years old, and its tentacles can be said to be all over the corners of the Great Zhou Shendu......

It is said that when the first emperor died, he was afraid that after his death, the little emperor Ma Jin would be hollowed out by the courtiers, so he let his younger brother Ma Lin, the king of Jin, enter the auxiliary government of the court, and let the emperor's younger brother Yan Wang Ma Di go out of the town and merge the state, and the imperial brother Wu Wang Ma Qi went out of the town of Yangzhou, and guarded the north and south to deter the place, thinking that the imperial power could be stabilized and excessive.

But who knows that these people are all ill-intentioned people, after the little emperor ascended the throne, the king of Jin disappeared from people's field of vision as if he had become an invisible person, ignoring the affairs of the court, which made Li Shifang and others unscrupulously control the government.

You must know that since the first emperor let the king of Jin enter the court to assist the government and monitor the courtiers, he naturally has his reasons, this is because the king of Jin has a famous cavalry army in his hand, which is the famous ghost-faced cavalry, known as the most elite cavalry force in the Great Zhou.

Of course, the first emperor was also worried that the king of Jin was in the place, and he was afraid that he would make any moves, so he sent someone to recruit him back to the Shendu, in order to let him and the ministers of the court contain each other and prevent one party from becoming bigger, but who knew that the king of Jin did not accept the invitation at all, and disappeared as if he had disappeared......

"Alas! Now that Li Shifang's party has been exterminated by the little emperor, there is no one in front to attract attention, and His Royal Highness the King of Jin wants to act, I'm afraid it's not that simple! Chen Ting did not answer the ghost-faced man's question, but said meaningfully.

"Old Chen, I think you look up to that little emperor too much, what if you can exterminate Li Shifang and his party? How long has this little emperor been on the throne? Dare to wantonly kill the ministers of the court, what do you think the courtiers? Will it be centrifugal and detached?

Besides, even if the little emperor controls the court, what will happen? Don't think that with the support of a few people, you can do whatever you want, you must know that the hearts of the people are back, how can a little emperor with no foundation in this world be able to control? ”

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin has the help of the two kings of Yan and Wu, and there are 100,000 elite soldiers in Bingzhou, when the time comes, he will rise up and come to the side of the Qing monarch, and it will be easy to do that position!"

The ghost-faced man's tone was very disdainful, in his eyes, Ma Jin was just a hairy boy, who knows what shit luck he had, he really let him get rid of Li Shifang, but what can he do?

This shit luck is not available every day, in terms of ability, this Ma Jin is mediocre and cowardly, and he is also brutal and bloodthirsty, how can he compare with His Royal Highness the King of Jin? Back then, Emperor Xuanwu did not abide by the alliance between the two countries, and he had to let Ma Ying succeed to the throne, otherwise how could he get his turn in that position, this Great Zhou World was originally His Royal Highness the King of Jin.

"You go back and tell His Royal Highness the King of Jin that now that the little emperor is in power and controls the military power of the divine capital, it is not appropriate to make any big moves for the time being, so as not to startle the snake and make the little emperor's eyes turn to us.

I think it's better to wait for our people to return to the Shendu, and then make a district, so that His Highness can endure it for a few more days. Chen Ting looked at the ghost-faced man and said solemnly, and the ghost-faced man arched his hand when he heard what Chen Ting said, turned around and jumped out of the window to leave.

"Hey! His Majesty Emperor Xuanwu asked to marry Princess Da Liao back then, but I don't know if it's right or wrong! After taking a sip of tea, Chen Ting said with some sighs.

You must know that there are many countries in the Eastern Regions, and there are four major powers: the Great Xuan Empire, the Great Liao Empire, the Great Song Empire, and the Great Zhou Empire.

When Emperor Xuanwu succeeded to the throne, the Great Zhou was not one of the four great powers in the Eastern Regions now, although it had been founded for hundreds of years, it was just an ordinary small country in the Eastern Regions, but the national strength was relatively strong among the small countries, far less than the three empires at that time.

At that time, the most powerful in the Eastern Regions was naturally the Great Liao Empire, followed by the Great Xuan Empire, and the Great Song Empire.

When Emperor Xuanwu ascended the throne, the Zhou State was chaotic after hundreds of years, the court was corrupt, the local feudal towns were numerous, and the enemy countries plundered the border cities from time to time, which was already the appearance of the last dynasty.

In order to save the Great Zhou and pull the Great Zhou back from the line of death, Emperor Xuanwu married Princess Yelu Huanxiu, the pearl of the Great Liao Emperor at that time, as the empress of the Zhou State.

To say that Emperor Xuanwu is also a generation of heroes, relying on the strength of the Liao State to quickly quell the domestic rebellion, and repelled the attacks of the enemy country one after another, but the Liao State also has an increasingly heavy influence on the Zhou State, and the wise and martial Emperor Xuanwu will naturally not be controlled by others, let alone let the Liao State take the opportunity to encroach and annex the Great Zhou.

So Emperor Xuanwu secretly attacked the forces arranged by the Liao State in the territory of the Zhou State and supported the forces loyal to the royal family of the Zhou State, but after all, the Liao State was a strong country and the first power in the Eastern Regions, far from being comparable to the Zhou State at that time, it was too obvious that Emperor Xuanwu did not dare to do it, but the secret fighting and destruction made the Liao State a little impatient.

In the end, the Liao compromised, but on the condition that the next emperor of the Zhou state must be the son of the empress Yelu Huanxiu. For the sake of the stability of the Zhou State, Emperor Xuanwu was forced to reluctantly agree.

With the protection of the Liao State, under the hard work of Emperor Xuanwu, the national strength of the Zhou State is becoming stronger and stronger, and the people live in peace and prosperity in all parts of the Inner Zhou State. Externally, it swept through all countries, expanded its territory by tens of thousands of miles, and was known as one of the four great powers in the Eastern Regions.

In the fifty-fourth year of Xuanwu, before Emperor Xuan died, he did not pass the throne to the queen's son Ma Lin as agreed, but to the mediocre nineteenth prince Ma Huan.

This made the emperor of Liao feel that he was being played by Emperor Xuanwu, but at that time, the national strength of the Great Zhou was already not inferior to that of the Great Liao.

And since Ma Huan can let Emperor Xuanwu choose the successor to the throne, he is naturally not a mediocre talent. It was not long after ascending the throne that he took control of the Zhou regime. In order to stabilize the Liao State and not prevent the war, Ma Huan still followed the then queen Yelu Huanxiu as the queen mother, and entered Yelu Huanxiu's son Ma Lin as the king of Jin, and added the governor of the state to pacify the Liao State.

This is nine years, who knows that there are unforeseen wind and rain, Zhaowu Emperor Ma Ying suddenly fell seriously ill and died. The little emperor Ma Jin hurriedly ascended the throne, and for a time there was a turmoil in the Great Zhou Empire, which made these ill-intentioned people think that they had an opportunity to take advantage of.

And Chen Ting's mother is a descendant of a Liao noble, you must know the relationship between Zhou and Liao, if people know that his mother is a Liao, let alone being an official, even life may not be saved.

Not to mention that he lived in Liao for a period of time when he was young, because he concealed his past and just wanted to spend the rest of his life as a petty official, who would have thought that he would be trusted by two generations of emperors and be able to rise step by step and become the first assistant.

After all, he has been a very good minister for a long time, and even Chen Ting himself has forgotten all the things in the past, if it weren't for this ghost-faced man, he would ...... Alas! Sometimes people can't help themselves, even if they don't think about themselves, they have to think about their families.
