Slowly, He Chen found that there were fewer and fewer people supporting him, and the styles of some people in the He family were becoming more and more arrogant. The final outcome had not yet been decided, so he acted like he was a relative of the emperor and no one cared about him. In eyes.

It seems that He Chen will definitely become the emperor, and they will become masters by virtue of their transformation from dragon. Since their status is different, what they think and do must be different from before.

He Chen couldn't help but frown, and ordered his trusted subordinates to lead someone to investigate what the He family had said and done recently, so that they could respond promptly.

The investigation is not difficult. Who told the members of the He family and the in-laws to act without any thought of covering up, with evidence everywhere?

He Chen frowned as he listened to his subordinates' report on how several cousins ​​were amassing money and seizing houses. When did they become like this?

He was obviously a law-abiding person before, but he didn't have much ability. At least he had a clean and upright style and would never bully others, let alone accept bribes.

He Chen's brows furrowed into a knot when he heard that several cousins ​​were surrounded by a large group of people when they came in and out. They were buying jade jewelry everywhere, wearing them once and then leaving them for others to admire.

"And..." The subordinate paused, as if he was a little embarrassed whether he should continue or stop right there. He Chen was already upset, so when he saw the other party like this, he said impatiently: "But it doesn't matter!"

"The third cousin announced in public that she will marry the young master in the future. Even if she cannot become a wife, she can still get a concubine, and she will become a concubine from now on."

The subordinate finished speaking in embarrassment. He, a grown man, couldn't help but blush after saying this. For a third cousin, a girl, to be so presumptuous, she was really lacking in education.

"..." He Chen opened his eyes wide and said in disbelief: "Miss Third Cousin indeed said that, are you correct?"

In my memory, my third cousin was reticent and extremely shy. How could she become so ignorant of the rules in such a short period of time and dare to say anything?

"How dare I arrange a third cousin? This matter has caused a big fuss. I'm afraid General Guan has heard about it..." The subordinate sighed, thinking of Guan Zishu, and reminded He Chen.

Those who need clarification should be clarified quickly, otherwise, won't it deepen General Guan's misunderstanding and make it impossible for him to be with the young master again?

Waving his hand to signal his men to step back, He Chen, who was exhausted mentally and physically, sat alone in the study for a while. The moment he was forced to calm down, recalling what happened during this period of time was like a blow to the head, waking him up.

Unknowingly, he has completely forgotten his original intention, and not only him, but his family has gradually changed beyond recognition.

Obviously at the beginning, He Chen only wanted to support orthodoxy and eliminate harm for the country. When did he not only forget his original intention, but also allowed his ambition to expand and only wanted the dragon throne?

Taking his family along with him to act arrogantly and become the person they once hated the most?

Thinking of Guan Zishu's hesitant expression when she looked at him some time ago, He Chen was shocked to realize that he might have missed the possibility of rebuilding a relationship with her again.

Not only her, but the civil servants, military officers, businessmen and people who once followed him were all disappointed in him. Otherwise, why would one or two choose to leave him and join other people's camps?

I realize that if I continue like this, I will gradually enter a desperate situation, and it will be difficult to turn back.

He Chen learned from the pain and made an immediate decision. He scolded the behavior of several cousins ​​in public and made them pay the due price according to the rules.

Privately, he asked his mother to come forward and teach his cousins ​​a lesson, not to indulge in luxury like this anymore. You know, many people don't even have enough to eat, but they waste money without any scruples. Doesn't it make people hate the He family?

As for the third cousin, He Chen personally told his uncle and aunt that he would not marry his cousin. No matter who his wife was in the future or how many women he had, he would never consider marrying his sister.

After vigorously and resolutely rectifying the bad elements in the family, He Chen changed his behavior and became a bit like the convincing young general he once was.

The lost hope of everyone was rekindled again. In the face of power, people will always get lost. What is rare is that they can return to the right path after getting lost. It seems that they are not following the wrong person.

After saving the lost heart, He Chen found Guan Zishu and told her about his inner changes. He was confused and confused about this and longed for peace of mind.

"Shu'er, I don't know how to tell you. I clearly know that my original intention has changed, and I should bury my ambitions and return to my original purpose, but for some reason I just don't want to do that."

"The purpose of punishing those cousins ​​is, firstly, to restore the family tradition, and secondly, to show it to everyone so that they will not lose faith in me and continue to be loyal to me."

"My thoughts are no longer just for the wild geese, but more for my own ambition. I want that dragon chair..."

He Chen would not say many things to his parents or close relatives. Only in front of Guan Zishu could he face his heart and express his truest thoughts.

Even if she would be disappointed in him because of this, even if she would leave him because of this, he didn't want to lie to her just to keep her.

Guan Zishu looked at He Chen's tangled look after confessing, and comforted softly: "Don't blame yourself too harshly. Power is fascinating. If I were you, I might not be better than you."

"Looking around the world, are there any rebels today who remember their original intentions? They don't know how to reflect on themselves and honestly face what they think in their hearts like you."

"The situation is not up to you. At this point, you can no longer go back just by saying you want to. In this case, it is better to make your intentions clear and give it a try."

Before He Chen, who thought he was understood and gained infinite strength from it, was moved to hold her hand, Guan Zishu, who had thought a lot during this period, suddenly changed her eyes and looked at him seriously.

"And I also want that position, so let's split up between you and me! After we separate, you and I will each rely on our own abilities. Whoever breaks into the palace first will be the master."

"..." He Chen stared at Guan Zishu dumbfounded, what on earth was she talking about?

Soon, Guan Zishu told him with actual actions what she was talking about. With an order, the forces belonging to Guan Zishu's faction were ready to leave immediately.

No matter how He Chen didn't believe it, no matter how hard he struggled, Guan Zishu and her people left him without hesitation and started her own banner.

When the conflict between various rebels and Li Xiaoji's people was at its most intense, the split between Guan Zishu and He Chen instantly attracted everyone's attention.

But he quickly looked away. After all, up to now, there are many rebel teams that have been torn apart due to interests, ideas, and different purposes.

It is a pity that He Chen and Guan Zishu, the golden couple in the past, separated, but in the current environment, it is a normal thing.

What was unexpected was that after the two were separated, they could each develop into the strongest group of rebels.

Most of the troops supporting the hero and heroine are the old troops of General He and General Guan, and there are also some former enemies who brought their troops over to fuse after they were convinced.

No one thought highly of Guan Zishu originally, but her record was really good. When she was with He Chen, she might lose a few times, but after leaving him, she never lost again.

Faced with the continuous attacks by the rebels, Li Xiaoji was furious on the surface, but secretly issued a secret edict in the name of Jiang Chenzhi early.

I should cooperate with your performance...
