C75

When An Zheng received the news that the old subject of the three generations, Zhuge Yan, had suddenly died, it did not have much of an impact. He knew that Zhuge Yan, an old official who was able to hold on for two King of Yan s and still hold a position within the imperial court, was naturally an outstanding man. However, he was already very old, and there was no need to pay too much attention to the matter of life and death. If Zhuge Yan was younger, then there might still be people who sighed. However, Zhuge Yan's death was not a bad thing for many people in the imperial government.

It was because a spot had been vacated.

It was said that all the civil and military officials had left, and the Zhuge Residence was especially lively.

Furthermore, An Zheng did not even connect Zhuge Yan's death with his death. He was not an immortal, how could he possibly connect the two lines?

An Zheng did not understand Zhuge Yan, nor did he understand Chen Shaobai.

However, because of this matter, the Martial Arts Academy's assessment was delayed a little. As to when it would be held again, he still had to wait for the notice. As the Prime Minister of the Yan Kingdom, Zhuge Yan had been in the imperial court for dozens of years. But later on, maybe it was because of him that King of Yan had no choice but to suppress them. Zhuge Yan's intelligence could not be compared to ordinary people. After sensing that something was amiss, he took the initiative to request to withdraw from all the positions of power, reserving only the position of Dean of the Supreme Academy, and asked the King of Yan to allow him to teach and educate others.

The moment this report was posted, King of Yan thought about the many years of contributions, and actually felt that it was a bit difficult to make a move on her. After weighing the pros and cons again, a portion of the officials who were's trusted aides were deposed. However, in the end, they still gave Zhuge Yan the position of prime minister. However, in order to balance the situation, the King of Yan changed his Prime Minister system to the Minister of the Left and the Right, and chose another important official to be his official, after that, Zhuge Yan's power was gradually reduced, and his authority was gradually taken over.

After all, they had been in the capital for so many years. Even if they had no real power, they could still summon the wind and summon the rain.

Zhuge Yan suddenly died, and some of the more sensitive people thought of the Empress Dowager Su, but did not dare to say anything.

One year ago, Su Mao was promoted to Prime Minister of the Left. One year later, Su Zong would be appointed as Great General. At this point, the sudden death of the old lady, Zhuge Yan, was indeed rather subtle.

It was said that on that day, the Empress Dowager Su Qing Wen s all went to the Zhuge Residence s and stayed in the palace for an entire day and night before leaving.

This honor was unprecedented.

An Zheng sent people to look for news, but they were still far from the news, so he did not care too much about it. He was more willing to consider how he could safely enter the Martial Academy and Grand Autumn Ceremony. How could he infiltrate into the power hierarchy of the Great Yan, and how could he rescue Xiao Qidao's mother from the Celestial Prison.

Directly going to see Mu Changyan? That was impossible, even if Mu Changyan saw him, would he dare to let Lady Ye out of the Celestial Prison? It had been more than three years. If he had the guts, he would have done it long ago.

An Zheng didn't know either, but actually, Mu Changyan had seen him the very day he entered the city. It was just that the King of Yan, who had had all of his spirit polished off by the Empress Dowager Su for more than three years, had long blurred his memories. Until now, Mu Changyan only felt that the two words "Heavenly Awakening Sect's Heavenly Awakening" were a little familiar, and he forgot about the crumbling martial arts academy opposite the Phantom Institute. Perhaps, it was not that he had forgotten, but he did not believe that An Zheng and the others could really create a miracle.

An Zheng left Du Shoushou and the others to cultivate inside the sect, taking advantage of this time when all of Fanggu City's attention was on the Zhuge Residence, he asked the Old Huo to think of a way to settle the Heaven Defying Seal.

Over three years, they had cultivated tens, or even a hundred times as much as the other cultivator s who had activated their cheating tools. If they still did not succeed, then it would be unfair to the Heaven Defying Seal.

Anti left the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect. He changed into a set of simple but clean black clothes, and stepped on a pair of white cloth shoes with a black face. In the drizzle, he held a black oil-paper umbrella and walked towards Mingwen Street. Actually, the reason why he came to this city was not only for Little Seven, but for himself as well. "When he was ambushed in the Cang Man Mountain, he was on this side of the country of Yan.

At that time, the war was so intense and magnificent, how could the cultivator not know about it?

At that time, the reason why An Zheng came here without rest was because the Saint Emperor of Great Xi had sent someone to tell him that Royal Seventh Prince Huai, Chen Zhongqi, had been ambushed in the Yan Kingdom. Chen Zhongqi was one of An Zheng's best friends and the two of them had an incomparable connection in many ways. They talked about everything An Zheng had said before. The person who understood himself better in this world was none other than King Huai, Chen Zhongqi.

At that time, there was a fierce battle between the sixteen kingdoms, and Yan Kingdom, Zhao Kingdom, and Coalition forces advanced arrogantly, almost exterminating the entire Forever.

Saint Emperor of Great Xi was quite fond of his seventh son, Chen Zhongqi, so he planned to send Chen Zhongqi as Great Western Envoy to mediate the war between the sixteen kingdoms.

Da Xi's strategy was to fight, but not to wipe out any nation. It was because Da Xi needed these small countries to keep fighting and killing people. Only by doing so would these small countries not pose any threat to Da Xi. In order to increase the political power of Chen Zhongqi and increase his contribution, the envoy who was not supposed to be a prince himself was given to Chen Zhongqi.

When the news travelled back to Da Xi, it told them that Chen Zhongqi had suddenly been ambushed while he was on a tour around Yan Kingdom.

An Zheng did not come along with the group of people. However, as soon as he entered the borders of the Yan Kingdom, the people of the Yan Kingdom told him that the Great Western Prince was trapped somewhere in the Mount Cangman. That place was actually a section of the Yanshan's mountain range, and could be considered a branch of the Mount Cangman. The Yanshan Mountain Range was north of Yan Kingdom, and the closest place was less than thirty kilometers away.

After An Zheng analyzed the situation, he realized that he had been tricked from the very beginning, and since he was concerned about it in a mess, he had overlooked too many flaws. With his strength at that time, he was already found out by the Yan People the moment he entered the Yan Kingdom, and then he was told where Chen Zhongqi was trapped ? This was obviously unreasonable.

In the end, he was so anxious that he did not even think about it, and directly rushed into the Mount Cangman.

He had fought in the great battle of the Mount Cangman alone against dozens of experts, but he had not seen Chen Zhongqi at all. Even if Chen Zhongqi wasn't surrounded by experts, there were still a few Grand Cultivator s who were intimidated by the rumors. An Zheng had not seen a single one, so at that moment, he already understood what was going on.

Her best friend had used him as bait and caught An Zheng.

That was why the Yan Kingdom must have known about it at that time. Otherwise, the head of the Law Department of Great Xi would have perished at Mount Cangman. Just this incident alone would allow Da Xi to send troops to the north and grind the Yan Kingdom into smithereens. In other words, that incident that year, was aimed at An Zheng from the very beginning. Someone was trying to kill An Zheng, and Chen Zhongqi was one of them.

But up until now, An Zheng still had not figured out the reason for Chen Zhongqi to get rid of him.

If Chen Zhongqi became the crown prince and inherited the position of Saint Emperor of Great Xi in the future, wouldn't An Zheng do everything he could to support him with his relationship with An Zheng?

An Zheng didn't understand, so he didn't have the strength to investigate it back to the Da Xi Empire right now.

At that time, the Yan Kingdom must have received instructions, and there were even people from the Grand Cultivator s who had besieged An Zheng.

If he wanted to thoroughly investigate these matters, he would have to enter the Yan Kingdom's imperial court.

Therefore, if An Zheng went to see Zhuang Feifei, that woman had a deep background, he should be able to get some information from her.

Just as An Zheng was walking towards the Jushang Yard, within the Fanggu City, things regarding An Zheng had not actually come to an end.

Empress Dowager Su laid on her side with her eyes closed, three young maids waiting on her side. One of them was pounding his legs, one was rubbing his waist, and the other was pounding his back. The three of them were moving cautiously, not daring to even breathe loudly. These three girls looked to be no more than fourteen or fifteen years old, and they were all very beautiful. However, under this heavy pressure, everyone's faces turned pale, as if they were sick.

She waved her hand, signaling the three maids to leave.

Prime Minister of the Left Su Mao sat not too far away and took a sip of tea, "Empress Dowager, since Zhuge Yan is dead, shouldn't that matter be over then? There were only a few people who knew the secret behind it. The reason why King Xixi had sent people to continuously pressure him was because he was afraid that this matter would be leaked out. After all, he was dead ? But, the head of the Law Department of Great Xi s, a great influential being. "

"Where did he come from?"

Empress Dowager Su closed his eyes and sneered: "If I die, I die. It's no longer of use. However, this First Lord was indeed extraordinary. Even after dying for several years, this matter was not over. It was rumored that there were still many people in the Great Xi Nation who wanted to take revenge for him, and they were even continuously pressuring the The Great Western Kingdom. It's most likely because Prince Hui was too much for him, so he told us to clean up everything that had to be dealt with. "

Her tone became even more calm: "But I've long wanted to kill Zhuge Yan, it's just that I've been unable to find an opportunity. Zhuge Yan himself was a cultivator of the Minor Perfection Stage, he was close to the pinnacle and was not easy to deal with. Besides, there were so many experts in his residence. Who knew what kind of wealthy martial artists were hidden among the hanger-ons? This time, Zhuge Yan suddenly died, and saved us a lot of trouble. "

Su Mao asked: "Is Zhuge Yan really sick?"

The Empress Dowager Su said: "I had the corpses examined and they were indeed sick. At his age, dying of an emergency illness is nothing. "

Su Zong, who was sitting on the other side, said, "That way, we can have an explanation to the Da Xi side. However, what made people dissatisfied was ? The promises made by King Hui have yet to be fulfilled. "

Empress Dowager Su suddenly sat up. "Su Zong, I'm going to promote you to a great general, can't you be more mature? Do you think King Hui will really give us those things? Even if he doesn't give it to us, with Da Xi's power and his position in the Grand Prince, how can we not compromise? If you continue to be so superficial, how are you going to deal with Fang Zhiji? "

Su Zong immediately stood up: "Big sister is right, I've remembered it."

"Call me empress dowager!"

Empress Dowager Su's face turned cold: You have to take care of our national affairs!

Su Zong's face turned white, he lowered his head and said: "This subject ?. "I know I was wrong."

After the Empress Dowager Su calmed down, he said: "Regarding this matter, we can just speak of it privately. If any of you dares to speak of it casually, even if you are my trusted people, I will not hold back. Back then, the one who participated in this matter was Zhuge Yan, he was already dead. There was still the Minister of War Hao Pingan who couldn't think of a reason to kill him at the moment. But don't forget, there's still Fang Zhiji who isn't participating but knows about it! "

She looked at Su Zong: "If I don't get rid of these two, I won't be able to sleep in peace for a day. Hao Pingan is in charge of the Ministry of War, the army is all his men, this is also why I made you become a Great General. But I know that with your talent and methods, you are definitely not Hao Pingan's match. Forget it... In the future, the motherland will send more wise people. "

Su Zong kneeled down with a thump. "I beg the empress dowager to give me a chance to share her worries."

Empress Dowager Su snorted coldly: "All I know is that you have to change it, I really can't use you."

"Your subject will correct himself and not disappoint the empress dowager."

"Get up."

Empress Dowager Su waved his hand: "Getting rid of Hao Pingan isn't the hardest part, but Fang Zhiji. Fang Zhiji's cultivation level is unfathomably strong, killing him is simply too difficult. "

She was a little agitated and after a moment of silence, she said: "While Fang Zhiji is not in Fanggu City, finish him off quickly and bring back the rights of Ministry of War. Then, he would take back all of Fang Zhiji's military power. It wouldn't be too late to kill him later. As for King Xixi, I will send some of my trusted aides to reply. Don't count on me to give you orders for everything. If everything depends on me, what do I want you to do? I don't need a child, I need a helper. Instead of sharing the worries, you make me worry about everything else. If you continue to be like this, there will be no need for you to stay. "

Su Mao and Su Zong stood up and cupped their fists as they bowed their heads: "This subject is useless."

"Let's go, let's go. Just looking at you makes my heart hurt ?" "Right."

Empress Dowager Su suddenly thought of something. "There's still one more person, how could I forget about it.

At the same time, An Zheng coincidentally walked out of Jushang Yard's gates.
