After the worship, a few people led by Zhang Zirui left first, preparing to visit the new saint of Juxian Academy.

And the prince Zhou Quan was unwilling to accept the facts, and with an unwilling face, he hurriedly said in front of Queen Shen: "Queen Mother, what should I do." ”

The white-haired and white-faced old eunuch Zhou Zheng slowly picked up the new emperor Zhou Xun, who was still full of shock, and comforted: "Emperor Zhou doesn't need to worry about whether there is someone unwilling to follow up, the old slave will protect your thoughtfulness if he has the will of the emperor." ”

Su Guifei pulled the man who was still stunned in front of her.

Zhou Xun came to his senses and hurriedly arched his hand: "Zhou Xun thank you for your kindness." ”

The old eunuch showed a trace of appreciation on his face, lowered his posture a little, and whispered: "Emperor Zhou can be worshiped by thousands of people, but the old slave can't help it, and the old slave is very happy to be able to exert some residual heat." ”

He stretched out his hand and opened a way forward, and said, "Emperor Zhou, go back to the palace first." ”

A trace of ruthlessness drifted through the depths of Empress Shen's eyes, and she was instantly covered with a smile.

She walked slowly to hold Zhou Xun's hand and said with a smile: "Xun'er, after becoming the emperor, you must first cure the problem of cultivation, otherwise the second enthronement ceremony will be held in a few decades, wouldn't it chill the hearts of all the generals." ”

Zhou Xun immediately felt a tingling pain in his right hand, he turned his head to look at the smiling queen mother, turned around and said, "Zhou Xun remembers." ”

Empress Shen snorted coldly, turned around and walked away.

Zhou Quan, who had been holding back his anger, was even more sad after the woman left, and was carried away by shame and unwillingness, so he pointed his hand and scolded: "Why can you, a powerless waste, sit on that chair, that old guy is really blind!"

Wisps of mist filled the air, and then a huge golden palm descended from the sky, pressing the man to the ground.

The old eunuch with his hands behind his back narrowed his eyes and asked in a low voice, "Emperor Zhou, what do you see?"

Zhou Xun nodded, his expression was serious, quite an imperial style, he looked down at the "elder brother" lying on the ground like a dead dog, and said slowly: "Zhou Quan, you have never taken your father to heart, and how have you ever known what he is thinking in his heart, and in private he calls "old guy" and "old immortal" again and again, you really think that your father doesn't know?!, he just doesn't want to care, you have bullied me for more than ten years, but if you dare to insult your father in the future." “

The man paused, his voice full of coldness, "I will make your life worse than death!"

Zhou Quan, who was lying on the ground and couldn't raise his head, was furious, a mouthful of blood immediately flowed from the corner of his mouth, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Zhou Xun!"

The man who looked down from the high position immediately responded with a smile: "My brother is here." ”

He waved his hand slightly, then looked no further, and turned back to the palace.

It wasn't until he walked out of everyone's sight that Zhou Xun exhaled, and his back was already wet with sweat.

The old eunuch Zhou Zheng followed on the left flank, squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice: "It's very good, but it's not the best, if you can directly slash your brother at that time, the road will be better in the future." ”

Zhou Xun took a deep breath and said with a wry smile: "Then what's the difference between me and Zhou Quan." ”

The old eunuch turned a deaf ear and said in a low voice: "But has Emperor Zhou ever thought about what is the most difficult thing after ascending the throne, it is not that he has no military power, nor is he not without cultivation, but he must be recognized first." ”

Zhou Xun paused, stopped his pace and arched his hand: "Please give advice to Mr. Zhou." ”

The old eunuch hurriedly helped the man up, nodded and said: "The old slave is just a subordinate person, Emperor Zhou will never be able to do it in the future, some words in his heart are not loyal words can only be regarded as some of the old slave's experience, Emperor Zhou wants to listen, and the old slave will say it." ”

"This recognition is not an ordinary recognition, but it should be intimidating. Of course, there is no need to cast fishing nets widely, just point out a few people, those civil officials headed by Zhang Zirui do not need to care, they are the scholars who pay the most attention to moral rules, who made that chair, who is the emperor of the dynasty, the same is true of the six departments, the most difficult to deal with is the three major generals, they are all licking blood on the head of the knife, crawling out of the pile of 10,000 people, not only personal strength to the sky, there are thousands of male soldiers under his command, now the war in the north has started, if one is not handled well, it will cause chaos. ”

Zhou Xun asked, "Then what should I do?" ”

The corners of the old eunuch's mouth were slightly slanted, and he sighed: "When the first emperor ascended the throne, it was the same as your current situation, if you really want to say anything more, there is only blood, there are seven or eight siblings of the same sex, all of whom have no one to live, all of them are cut by him himself, although it is a bit cruel, but after all, the knife is hanging on everyone's heads." ”

The old eunuch had some memories in his eyes, shook his head and said with a smile: "When the old slave followed the emperor, it can be said that he was walking step by step like walking into the abyss, and the situation of only one breath was definitely not the next hand, and the emperor was the same, and it was even more difficult. ”

Zhou Quan listened very seriously, and fell into deep thought for a moment.

The old eunuch said in a deep voice: "Now if you want to kill chickens and make an example of monkeys, you have missed the best opportunity, it is estimated that even if you do it, the effect is not too great, as for how to act next, Emperor Zhou can decide alone, and the old slave will definitely accompany you." ”

Zhou Xun asked: "Since the border battle of the Longwu Kingdom, the Xingshen Kingdom and the Wuyuan Kingdom have joined forces, if we only send a large army of Huaiyuan, I am afraid that there is also a danger of dying and cold." ”

The old eunuch didn't shake his head or nod, but the look of appreciation on his face was even stronger, and he said with a smile: "This can be handled by Zhang Zirui in advance, Emperor Zhou still thinks about how to put this chair in prison first, and also beware of that Queen Shen, since a lead has been buried, it is natural to have a way to deal with it." ”

Zhou Xun looked around and felt a big mountain fall on his shoulders.

Only then did he know what responsibilities the old man with the smile on his face that he saw every day had taken on and what kind of things he had to deal with every day.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a freehand mountain.

This handsome man who was about to add a yellow robe not only did not have a little joy, but his eyebrows and eyes were wrinkled into a twist, until he stood on the top of the Hundred Ladders Dragon Platform and stood in front of the gate of the majestic palace, his mood was a little relieved.

He learned from the old man's impression, put his hands behind his back, and held his head high.

It turns out that under the brilliant scenery of eight streets and nine mo, there is a surging rapids and rapids.

The man looked at it again and again, his lips opened slightly, and he muttered in a low voice: "Chongyang Kingdom, Tai'an City, Zhou Family and Zhou Xun, I am willing to shoulder this responsibility!"

————————

In that ordinary courtyard house, but because of the return of one person, the Juxian Academy, which became one, had several people sitting opposite each other, pointing out the country.

Kong Xin'an, the head of Juxian Academy, Zhang Zirui, the contemporary Taishi, Xie Changqi, the secretary of the military department, Li Hengyuan, the secretary of the ministry, and Lu Yuchun, the assassin of Suzhou, who came on a special trip.

Except for Xie Changqi, the secretary of the military department, the remaining few people are either from the orthodox Shangde Academy, or from this ordinary courtyard courtyard.

Scholars see readers, talk eloquently, eloquently, and are eloquent and strategic, and set the country in a game of Go.

Zhang Zirui holds black first, and Kong Xinan holds white fall.

The rest of the people sat in a circle, just listening, not speaking.

Even Lu Yuchun, who had already hidden his words, closed his mouth when he saw this senior brother who had already climbed the Ten Realms.

This ordinary hut actually has the momentum of gathering heroes from all over the world.

In the eyes of everyone, on the chessboard, the first mountain is about to collapse, and the second river is flowing backwards.

But the people who play chess are expressionless, even very comfortable.

The two are still an ordinary formula, fighting for gold and turf, and after dozens of hands on the third and fourth lines, they turned into the middle game, and then they fell like flying, and they have entered the end in a blink of an eye.

Zhang Zirui pinched a son again, but it didn't fall for a long time, and there was no vacancy on the chessboard, so he had to abandon the son and smile: "I lost." ”

Kong Xin'an shook his head, pinched back the winning hand that was used as the big dragon, put it back into the chess piece, and said with a soft smile: "You didn't lose, I agreed to that matter." ”

Several people were a little admired, only Lu Yuchun was a little reluctant, but this matter was a matter of life and death, so he had to ask in a low voice: "Senior brother, do you really want to be like this?"

Kong Xin'an glanced at this fellow disciple and said, "You plan to withdraw to deal with the Tiger and Wolf Army in Buzhou Mountain and aid the Longwu Kingdom from the south to the north, this matter is reasonable. ”

Lu Yuchun hurriedly said: "But!"

Kong Xin'an waved his hand and smiled calmly: "I know what you want to say, it doesn't matter, I'm afraid that in Chongyang Kingdom, there is no more suitable person than me." ”

He turned to flick the token on his waist, and said with a face on his face: "This academy has a small world of its own, and being in it can make my realm half a step higher, I want to take this thing away, and I have to promise a request." ”

Zhang Zirui arched his hand and said: "It should be so, Master Confucius just mentioned it." ”

The old man looked up into the distance, thought for a moment and said with a smile: "I don't know yet, someone will naturally ask you for it in the future, but don't pretend to excuse it when the time comes." ”

Zhang Zirui got up and bowed his hand: "As long as Master Confucius agrees to this matter, even if I want Zhang Zirui's old life, I will admit it." ”

He said this, nodded his eyebrows with his hand, pulled out a thin golden thread, held it in the palm of his hand, and said loudly: "I, Zhang Zirui, swear with my heart and soul that I will abide by today's words, otherwise I will voluntarily return to the sky and spill blood into the loess." ”

The golden silk thread in Zhang Zirui's palm suddenly turned into a little fluorescence and disappeared between heaven and earth, without a trace, but there was nothing there.

Kong Xin'an didn't say much, gently covered the chess box, glanced at Lu Yuchun with a little meaning, and began to wave his hand to drive people away, "You guys go first, I'll be alone first, and when I see someone, I'll start leaving." ”

Led by Zhang Zirui, several people bowed and saluted, "Then it will bother Master Confucius." ”

When a few people left the academy, a loud voice came from the heart lake of Lu Yuchun, the assassin of Suzhou, like stars entering the sea, and there were hundreds of water waves.

"Senior brother, resign as soon as possible, just live in peace and stability, as for the burden of the gentleman, I can pick it up alone. ”

Lu Yuchun, who walked out of Juxian Academy, immediately looked back, but there was a blur in front of him, and the small courtyard that was visible just now seemed to be obscured by golden light, but it was not visible.

The next moment, he was blown back by a warm spring breeze for a hundred meters, and he didn't stop until Zhang Zirui, who stopped.

Zhang Zirui sighed, looked at the palace and said, "You go back first, I'll go and talk alone."
