Seeing Zhou Zheng's expression, Xun'er and Gong Tan also looked at each other for a long time.

"She is from the Su family."

Finally, Gong Tan spoke.

The Su family? !

"The Su family, one of the five great families of the Great Zhou Dynasty?!"

Zhou Zheng's expression tightened. Perhaps the only Su family that Gong Tan could tell was the Su family among the five great aristocratic families.

"Yes."

Gong Tan did not deny it.

She knew very well that with Zhou Zheng's abilities and methods, she was afraid that Su Xun'er's identity would be known sooner or later. In this case, it was better to tell him now.

After receiving a definite answer, Zhou Zheng looked serious.

The five major families of the Zhou Dynasty are the Su family, the Yin family, the Ji family, the Han family, and the Xiao family.

Among them, the Su family is the strongest and has existed even longer than the Zhou Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, the beautiful woman in front of me is actually from the Su family!

If it had been anyone else, they would have been extremely excited when they heard the news, because it meant getting in touch with the Su family!

You know, in the Zhou Dynasty, even the imperial power had to be polite to the Su family.

They were in charge of nearly one-third of the economy of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and their businesses were spread all over the world!

It can be said that in addition to the officialdom, it is involved in many other aspects, making it a behemoth.

Every three years, the Su family will recruit some servants for the mansion. It is said that there is a long queue of applicants, with tens of thousands of people applying!

This alone shows how unique and powerful the Su family is.

Anyone who can get help from the five major families will surely rise to the top in his life.

Therefore, many people racked their brains and wanted to establish relationships with the five major families.

Zhou Zheng's grandfather, Xiao Mu, belonged to the Xiao family, one of the five major families.

Although the Xiao family has been prosperous and powerful in the past twenty years, Xiao Mu was even named the Marquis of Zhenbei, and his reputation is unparalleled.

But the Xiao family still has to bow before the Su family.

This shows how terrifying the power contained in the Su family is!

But there was no joy at all on Zhou Zheng's face, his eyes were solemn and his expression was serious.

"I know His Highness is worried. If Your Highness believes in me, please protect her."

Seeing the change in Zhou Zheng's expression, Gong Tan guessed Zhou Zheng's worries.

However, Gong Tan still bit her red lips and spoke.

"Hmph, sister Gong Tan, I can protect myself too."

Su Xun'er on the side was quite unhappy. She was the eldest daughter of the Su family. Although she was not as noble as the prince, she was not comparable to ordinary people. With the protection of three thousand black armors, in the Great Zhou Dynasty, She wasn't afraid.

But as soon as these words came out, her own voice became much softer.

"What is the relationship between the daughter of the Su family and Yan Chun Tower!?"

"Where did the black-armored soldiers in front of me come from!?"

Zhou Zheng did not immediately respond to Gong Tan, but fixed his eyes on Su Xun'er and asked in a deep voice.

None of this makes sense!

"Her identity is somewhat special. The Su family doesn't know Xun'er's identity now."

Gong Tan knew that he couldn't hide it from Zhou Zheng, so he could only speak softly.

Afterwards, Gong Tan roughly told Xun'er's life experience.

"Damn, the product of a one-night stand?!"

It turns out that when the head of the Su family was young, he once wandered around the Zhou Dynasty, and met a beautiful woman by chance. The two secretly had feelings for each other, and finally came together.

Unfortunately, the woman suddenly disappeared, and even though the head of the Su family searched for her, she was never seen.

Xun'er was the fruit of their love that night.

It's a bit nonsense, but it's true.

"Xun'er was a little willful. She left her mother privately, entered Yanchun Tower, and became the oiran."

"It's just that she was still young at that time and thought that the oiran was the most beautiful. She didn't know what it meant."

With a bitter smile, Gong Tan then glared at Su Xun'er.

Where is Yanchun Tower? !

It affects the entire imperial capital, and even Gong Tan's status does not dare to act recklessly in Yanchun Tower.

Only then did Gong Tan use Zhou Zheng's power to take Su Xun'er away.

"If the head of the Su family knew that his daughter was an oiran, he would be afraid that he would vomit out his old blood."

The bloody plot left Zhou Zheng speechless.

"Where are those black-armored soldiers?"

What Zhou Zheng cares more about are the more than 3,000 black-armored soldiers!

What a means! ?

In the Zhou Dynasty, although high-ranking officials and dignitaries had personal soldiers, the number was limited. Even for noble beings such as princes, their personal soldiers only numbered in the hundreds.

Su Xun'er mobilized more than 3,000 black-armored soldiers at once, and they were well-trained and powerful, which made Zhou Zheng have to worry.

After all, according to the laws of the Zhou Dynasty, it can be regarded as treason!

"Those black-armored soldiers were hired by me with money."

Su Xun'er's next words made Zhou Zheng confused on the spot!

I’ve seen people spend money to hire people, but I’ve never seen people spend money to hire more than 3,000 elites!

Even the courtesan of Yanchun Tower doesn’t have so much private money!

The most important thing is that with so many elites, do you think they can be taken care of by just hiring them? !

"It's true, I spent money on the black market..."

Su Xun'er lowered her head and responded in a low voice.

The black market exists in every dynasty, and it mainly deals with shady things. .

Many desperadoes are among them.

There are mercenaries too.

"It seems that the black market of the Great Zhou Dynasty is not simple."

Zhou Zheng is a smart man, and he can see the difference at a glance.

Being able to hire more than 3,000 elites in the black market is unthinkable under normal circumstances, unless the black market itself is secretly managed by a certain force, or someone deliberately trades with Su Xun'er in the black market!

Which one is it? Possibility! ?

But looking at Su Xun'er's appearance, it was obvious that she didn't know what was going on.

The only thing that made Zhou Zheng happy was that Su Xun'er was at least trying to save himself.

"That's all. It seems that we can only dig out the clues later by ourselves."

Shaking his head, Zhou Zheng had a vague intuition that this matter was not that simple, let alone a coincidence!

As for what is behind the scenes, we can only take a step and see!

"How much did you pay?!"

"One thousand taels of silver."

"what?!"

When Zhou Zheng heard about one thousand taels of silver, his pupils suddenly dilated!

With this little money, it would be impossible for a normal person to even think about employing more than 3,000 elites with their toes!

"It's a deposit..."

"I told that person, as long as I save you, you pay the balance..."

As if she had done something wrong, Su Xun'er kept stroking her fingers, her eyes flickered, and she stepped back.

"I wipe!"

"I'm spending money!?"

Zhou Zheng's face twitched at this time, and he had been doing it for a long time. The biggest culprit was himself! ?

"How much is the balance?!"

At this time, Zhou Zheng was almost gritting his teeth.

"One hundred and fifty thousand......"

Three words, like thunder, like a bolt from the blue, made Zhou Zheng petrified on the spot and froze on the spot.

Even Gong Tan was a little surprised.

One hundred and fifty thousand taels of silver!

This is no longer a small number.

"If you don't give it, what will happen to those black-armored soldiers!?"

"They will rush in, slaughter the city, and then kill you..."
