Time keeps passing.

The situation in Xiang County is becoming increasingly out of control.

The strength displayed by the rebels was far beyond what Gu Jiang and others could imagine.

The momentum was huge, and it seemed that Xiang County was completely under control.

Everyone was anxious. As the cities they could control became fewer and fewer and casualties increased, even Mu Yun and others couldn't calm down.

But Zhou Zheng seemed to be very calm, without too much panic.

Until, as night fell, a figure flashed over.

"Prince, the people have been brought!"

Gan Mo appeared like a ghost, and behind him, there was a chubby man.

The man had a sinister look on his face and a sinister look on his face. He was not a good person at first glance.

The first time he saw Zhou Zheng, he knelt down quickly, his body trembling a little.

"Get up, I don't like nonsense, so I hope that what you say next will be what I am interested in and want."

Zhou Zheng didn't even blink his eyelids and spoke calmly, as if he was talking about something insignificant.

"Back to the Crown Prince, the Third Prince has one hundred thousand elites in his hands."

"In seven days at most, Xiang County will be completely controlled."

"The third prince will slaughter everyone in Yancheng, including the crown prince..."

When the man said this, his voice paused and he raised his head slightly. When he saw Zhou Zheng from the corner of his eye, he found that Zhou Zheng still had no major mood swings.

"After the third prince rebels this time, he will proclaim himself king."

"Using Xiang County as a base and using many islands on the sea as strongholds, it seems that they want to form a tripartite force with the Zhou Dynasty and fight for a long time."

The man bowed his head deeply. In the Great Zhou Dynasty, all rebels would only die if they failed.

"I am not interested in these."

Finally, Zhou Zheng spoke.

And his response made the man's body tremble violently, and his forehead was covered with large beads of sweat, which kept dripping.

"Gu Yong, don't say that the prince didn't give you a chance!"

"If it hadn't been for Concubine Qing, would your family still have a chance to survive!?"

"Don't think that no one will know what happened back then if Concubine Qing is gone!"

"Think of your family!"

"Is it possible that you still have unrealistic hopes for the Third Prince!?"

Gan Mo didn't even wrinkle. As a slight chill spread, murderous intent filled the air.

When he heard Concubine Qing, Gu Yong's body trembled obviously, and countless memories began to emerge in his mind.

Twenty years ago, when Gu Yong suffered a disaster, it was Xiao Qing who helped him and allowed the Gu family to survive.

In order to express their gratitude, the Gu family once swore to heaven that they would be unconditionally loyal to Xiao Qing and follow her forever1

Even if Xiao Qing is gone, the Gu family will stand by her descendants. ,

However, Xiao Qing had been away for so many years that many people in the Gu family had even forgotten about it, and like other landlords in Xiang County, they secretly sided with the third prince.

But he never expected that at this critical moment, Gan Mo would find Gu Yong.

"You should know the temperament of Third Emperor Brother. Once he knows about your relationship with my mother and concubine, how do you think he will deal with your Gu family?"

Zhou Zheng looked down at the man kneeling in front of him and asked softly.

This question made the man swallow his saliva.

How could he not know the third prince’s methods!

He is definitely not as gentle and elegant as he looks, but he is cruel and ruthless!

The five major families were directly tricked and killed by the third prince just because they secretly contacted the second prince and the eldest prince!

"Slave, don't dare!"

Gritting his teeth, Gu Yong also regretted it in his heart.

"The third prince has contacted Daxia. If nothing happens, Daxia will send troops south again soon."

"The purpose is to prevent the Zhou Dynasty from taking care of Xiang County."

This news made Zhou Zheng's pupils shrink suddenly. He did not expect that the third prince would still have contact with Daxia Kingdom in these years.

At first, I just thought that Zhou Ting had a close relationship with Daxia, but now it seems that things are far from that.

"In addition, although the Third Prince has cut off Xiangjun from the outside world, there is still a way to travel with him."

"That way?!"

"Furuhe-san!"

"The ancient rivers and mountains are so steep that ordinary people cannot climb them, let alone a large army traveling with them. Plus there are so many ferocious beasts around, it will be a dead end!"

A Gu Yong from Ganmo was deceiving Zhou Zheng, but he was exposed on the spot!

Since ancient times, ancient rivers and mountains have not been an efficient road, and even birds rarely fly over it.

At this time, Gu Yong mentioned the ancient rivers and mountains, and there was no room for Gan Mo to be wary.

"The ancient rivers and mountains are indeed too steep to be walked together."

"But last year, there was a heavy rainstorm in Xiang County. The huge floods caused many ancient rivers and mountains to collapse."

"And this collapsed route, let alone anyone, even an army can travel along it."

"It's just this road that ordinary people don't know about."

"If it weren't for my Gu family being there, plus running a medicine business, and needing to climb Guhe Mountain from time to time, I wouldn't have known it clearly."

Gu Yong's solemn guarantee.

Since he chose to side with Zhou Zheng, he had nothing to hide.

"Does the Third Prince know this road!?"

"We don't know yet!"

Gu Yong nodded affirmatively.

This road was originally planned by the Gu family to be developed in the future and used as a gateway to Xiang County. It was naturally a top secret of the family.

Even the third prince doesn't know yet.

"good very good!"

At this moment, Zhou Zheng finally had a smile on his face.

"You go and rest first, I will tell you what to do next."

"correct!"

"My mother gave your Gu family a way to survive."

"Now is the time for you to return the favor."

"When I destroy the rebels of the third prince, the court will not forget your contribution."

He waved his hand and signaled Gu Yong to leave first.

Then Zhou Zheng called Zhou Ping in.

"Boss, you want me to go find my dad?!"

Zhou Ping was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on, and he shouted on the spot.

"Boss, let's not talk about whether my father can mobilize the troops in his hands, nor whether this ancient river and mountain can be accessed."

"Once my father gets involved, things may be different."

Zhou Ping was a little worried at this moment.

He could be willful and even cut off relations with King Zhou Yong to follow Zhou Zheng.

But he is the son of King Zhou Yong after all, and he will never let King Zhou Yong take risks unless it is absolutely necessary.

In this life, Zhou Ping had never done anything that would make King Yong happy, but he would never allow himself to do anything that would make King Yong suffer.

As a prince, but also a mediocre prince, if he shows up in this matter, no matter what the reason, the emperor will not let him go easily!

Because today’s Holy Emperor is naturally suspicious!

Not many of the original princes are still alive!

"Why are you panicking!?"

"This is a letter I wrote to King Yong. Just give it to him."

"As for other things, you don't need to worry about it."

"Besides, you don't know who labor and management are?!"

"I never cheat my own people!"
