Your Majesty, please beg for mercy. The prince's rebellion was successful.

The Minister of War was beheaded!

The Minister of Rites was dismissed from his post and investigated!

Dozens of ministers in the DPRK were affected.

Countless news, like having wings, continued to spread within the imperial capital, and then spread throughout the entire Zhou Dynasty at an extremely fast speed.

For a time, the government and the public were shocked, and the world was shocked!

"The prince has invited himself to Xiangjun!"

Before everyone could come to their senses, there was a piece of bombshell news, which was like a huge boulder being thrown into the lake, causing countless waves.

"Is His Royal Highness crazy?!"

"Now that the Yuan Alliance is successful, and the Yuan Dynasty is secretly supporting it, why go to Xiang County at such a critical time!?"

"The barren land of Xiangjun is the real place of exile. No one wants to go there even if they are deposed!"

"Could it be that His Highness the Crown Prince sensed something was wrong? He was worried that he would make too many enemies in the court, so he deliberately retreated in order to advance!?"

Upon hearing the news, both the officials and the people were surprised.

They really couldn't figure out what Zhou Zheng's purpose was.

For such a talented person, it is obvious that Zhou Zheng, who is still able to handle the court besieged on all sides, is definitely not afraid of the so-called battle for the right to inherit the throne.

What is he drawing?

No one knows.

The residence of the eldest prince.

"Master Prime Minister, can you guess his purpose?"

After leaving the court, Zhou Fan looked solemn.

If Zhou Zheng went to Xiangjun in the past, he might be very excited.

But now in this way, it's really hard for him to be happy.

Because he simply couldn't understand Zhou Zheng and couldn't figure out what Zhou Zheng was doing.

In the past, he wouldn't have cared about Zhou Zheng's actions at all, but it was different now!

The methods displayed by Zhou Zheng are definitely not that of a foolish person, let alone someone who just sits there and waits for death.

"We all underestimated this prince."

At this time, Liu Fu looked serious, and even his tone was much lower.

To be able to make Liu Fu, the leader of hundreds of officials in the court for decades, like this, Zhou Zheng is considered a figure.

"Whatever he wants to do, going to Elephant County is not going to be a good thing for us."

Shaking his head, Liu Fu's words made Zhou Fan's heart sink slightly.

"Because, although others say it's over, the name of the prince is still there."

"Maybe, he just wants to wait!"

"Wait until the coronation!?"

When this idea came to Liu Fu's mind, his pupils suddenly shrank to the size of pinholes!

The process required for a prince to become a prince is extremely complicated.

In addition to gaining the approval of the Holy Emperor and hundreds of officials, there is another step called coronation!

The eighteen-year-old is a weak crown. Even though Emperor Tianjing did not show up, because of the relationship between Zhenbei Hou, Zhou Zheng's weak crown ceremony was still completed.

Just waiting until the age of twenty to complete the royal coronation means that Zhou Zheng will officially become the crown prince!

In less than a year, Zhou Zheng no longer had any dementia, and his three masterpieces became famous all over the world!

He went to the north alone to promote the alliance between the Great Yuan and the Great Zhou to establish key achievements.

It can be said that although Zhou Zheng was emerging at this time, his momentum was strong and he was already qualified to be a prince.

As long as he successfully waits until he is twenty, who can stop him from being crowned in front of his ancestors! ?

Do you dare, my ministers?

Not even the Holy One dares!

Unless, today, you are willing to bear the name of a faint king!

Thinking of this, Liu Fu's face instantly turned pale!

Zhou Fan also had a sinister look on his face and clenched his hands into fists.

"That's right!"

"As long as you are in the court, no matter how careful you are, you will inevitably get caught in the whirlpool and someone will secretly make a fuss about it!"

"In the future, in a remote place like Xiang County, although it is far away from the court, it is also the safest."

Zhou Fan finally figured it out.

"Do we really want him to become the crown prince and a king who will rule the world in the future!?"

"If this is the case, how many people will be dead and in different places?"

"Not only will our princes end up miserable, I'm afraid not many civil and military officials in the dynasty will survive."

The clenched fists creaked, and Zhou Fan's gloomy face was a little scary.

He knew very well what would happen if he failed in the battle to seize the inheritance.

How many civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty stood by Zhou Zheng's side?

Zhou Zheng now dares to take credit for deposing the Minister of Rites and beheading the Minister of War. How can he do it if he ascends the throne in the future?

How could Liu Fu not know this?

"There's still one year left, Your Highness, we haven't lost yet!"

His eyes narrowed to the size of a crack, Liu Fu spoke in a deep voice after a long time.

Now the third prince has no chance.

The second prince is still in the north.

The eldest prince is assisted by Liu Fu and supported by nearly half of the ministers in the court, so they are still the most important people in the future!

"kill him!"

"Only if Zhou Zheng is completely dead can future troubles be avoided!"

"Xiang County is thousands of miles away from the imperial court. I guess there will always be people who can't sit still."

Picking up the teacup on the side, an evil smile appeared on Zhou Fan's face again.

The trip north allowed Zhou Zheng to survive. He didn't believe that Zhou Zheng's luck would be so good!

Liu Fu rarely spoke this time.

Even if they don't do some things, there will always be people who can't stand it.

......

"Your Majesty, if you allow the prince to go to Xiang County in this way, I'm afraid it will cause trouble."

In the imperial study, Gu Qianfan knelt in front of Emperor Tianjing, worried.

As the commander of the Imperial City Division, he was very aware of the dark currents surging in the country.

Every move Zhou Zheng makes is likely to cause huge waves.

"This is not something you worry about."

"How is Gong Tan's injury doing now?"

Putting down the memorial in his hand, Zhou Tian rarely asked about Gong Tan.

"Back to Your Majesty, Gong Tan's injuries are basically fine now."

"Send the order for Gong Tan to continue to follow Zhou Zheng to Xiangjun."

Long frowned slightly, and Zhou Tian slowly gave the order.

Ever since Gong Tan was seriously injured and returned to the capital, news from Zhou Zheng had almost ceased.

"Yes!"

Gu Qianfan got the order.

"Except for Gong Tan, no one from the Imperial City Department needs to follow."

But Zhou Tian's next words made Gu Qianfan suddenly startled, his eyes flashed, and he broke into a cold sweat.

His Majesty sitting above him made Gu Qianfan even more unpredictable.

......

The land of the north!

Click!

The crisp sound of cracking came from the mansion. Zhou Ting's face was filled with anger and his expression was terrifyingly gloomy!

Almost all the equipment around him was broken by him, but it still couldn't calm him down.

Not only was the credit taken away, but even the Minister of War was beheaded!

Over the years, Zhou Ting has been running the military camp. Although he has supporters in the court, the most important one is the Minister of War!

Not only because Chen Yong is Zhou Ting's diehard loyalist, but also because he is the Minister of War and holds real power!

But for such an important figure, if he said he would be killed, he would be killed! ? !

"Zhou Zheng, you deserve to die!"

"Do you think you'll be fine if you hide in Xiang County?"

"If I were, I would die!"

......

The residence of the Marquis of Zhenbei!

Xiao Mu didn't have much mood swings.

But besides Xiao Hu and Xiao Bao, there was also Xiao Guan beside him!

"Father, we cannot disarm!"

"Although Daxia has withdrawn its troops, the worries on the border cannot be ignored!"

"Once the troops are reduced, will our Xiao family still be able to protect ourselves?"

Xiao Guan gritted his teeth!

And his words caused Xiao Hu and Xiao Bao to fall into silence.

The two brothers said nothing and focused their attention on Xiao Mu.

In the past, the champion who bravely won the three armies and shocked the world now has white cheeks and wrinkles on his face, which looks like a hero in his twilight years.

"Master Hou!"

"There's someone outside asking to see you!"

Suddenly, a rapid knock on the door came slowly.

......
