nine thousand years old

Chapter 70 Despair
Zhou House.

It was almost evening, and a faint fire cloud appeared in the gloomy sky, spreading like a flame, adding a bit of gloom to the world. Zhou An sat in the gazebo, frowning tightly, staring at Looking at the elegant courtyard dyed red by fire and clouds, his face was full of solemnity and worry.

At noon, he had already informed Xu Lei and other deputy commanders of the Imperial Army that there was a large-scale riot. It stands to reason that the entire Chang'an City has already rioted, and there must be at least one or two murders to make people panic. , However, it was already evening, but there was no movement at all, which was very strange.

He was very disturbed.

Could it be that these forbidden generals refused to listen to him?

Half an hour ago, he couldn't bear the torment in his heart, so he sent out a few servants to inquire. It is estimated that the news will come soon. The tension and worry in his heart became more and more obvious. After waiting for a while, he couldn't help but Standing up from the stone chair, he paced back and forth in the gazebo.

"what happened……"

"But please don't let anything happen..."

He muttered to himself, the worry and tension between his brows became more and more intense as time passed, and even the palms hidden under the cuffs showed signs of trembling slightly.

"Master, master, it's not good..."

Zhou An paced back and forth in the gazebo for a long time, when he suddenly heard the sound of frightened and hurried footsteps outside the courtyard, his thin body shook slightly, he turned his head abruptly, his eyes widened slightly, and ran In front of the servant, he hurriedly asked,

"What's wrong? What happened?"

"My lord, the Imperial Army didn't make a fuss at all."

The servant's face was full of fear, and he said out of breath,

"The Lord of the Twelve Prisons in the inner court seems to have gotten the news in advance, and directly led the guards of the Tengxiang camp to kill him. The deputy commanders you summoned were killed before the matter even started."

"The rest of the people didn't dare to move at all, and they were all driven back to the military office!"

"This……"

Hearing these words, Zhou An's face suddenly turned pale, and an unconcealable shock filled his eyes.

The opponent is so fast?
The manpower I arranged didn't even make a fuss, so it was wiped out?
How can this be?

"It's over..."

After being dazed for a moment, the despair and panic on Zhou An's face grew stronger, his thin body shook slightly, and he collapsed on the steps under the gazebo.

No matter how Su Hanyun knew the troublemakers, he has killed them all now!
After this massacre, even if there are still people in the forbidden army who are loyal to him, it is impossible to stand up again!

Between myself and the Forbidden Army, it is equivalent to being forced to cut off the connection!
I am really alone now!

"It's over..."

"It's over..."

Zhou An didn't know what was waiting for him, but he knew that he was powerless and helpless now!
"Master, tomorrow's court meeting..."

The servant also knew Zhou An's current situation, frowned slightly, and reminded in a low voice,
"You also……"

"Hey……"

Zhou An gave a wry smile, and the sadness on his face became more intense. He shook his head in a very dejected manner, and said,

"Help me write a memorial for the master, just say that I am sick and unable to attend the court meeting..."

"Little one understands!"

The servant also sighed slightly, and helped Zhou An to walk towards the study.

Zhou An's back became extraordinarily lonely, as if he had suddenly aged dozens of years, and even his body was bent.

……

Zhang House!

The light was dim, and Zhang Tinghai was the only one in the wide hall. He had a solemn face, with unconcealable worry in his eyes, sitting on the creaking wooden chair, looking out of the window from time to time, the palm holding the teacup was vaguely She was trembling, and even when she drank water, she accidentally choked and coughed violently.

After Su Hanyun left, he carefully considered what the latter said, and then carefully analyzed the current situation. He felt that Su Hanyun's behavior in front of him was intentional.

The latter should not be absolutely sure to deal with the three elements at the same time, and the threat to himself is to let himself contain Chen Bingli.

However, he was not sure whether this guess was correct.

After all, Su Hanyun is really an unpredictable and dangerous person. He was able to turn the tide when he faced Xiong Yuting and other powerful figures in the world. Now these three departments are far worse than Xiong Yuting. Who can guarantee this guy? Can't the tricks come out one after another, turning the clouds and rains upside down?
So, he was hesitating and struggling, and at the same time he was waiting!

He has to wait and see if Zhou An can make the imperial army stir up trouble. If the imperial army breaks out and Chang'an City is in chaos, he will firmly believe that Su Hanyun is bluffing, and he will stand by Chen Bingli to fight for the three divisions. One time!
And if the imperial army can't make trouble, it means that Su Hanyun has really prepared everything, and if he joins forces with Chen Bingli, it will be shooting himself in the foot!

"It's been so long, why hasn't the person who inquired about the news come?"

Zhang Tinghai took another sip of the tea, he really couldn't wait any longer, he stood up with a look of fear on his face, and paced back and forth in the hall, while his heart became more and more nervous and curious.

What was the result?

"Master, I got it!"

Soon, there were nervous footsteps outside the door, and a short, fat middle-aged man rolled and crawled, and appeared in front of Zhang Tinghai like a ball. Perhaps because he ran too impatiently, his face was red and he was angry. Panting, I can't even speak fluently!

"Don't worry, don't worry, talk slowly, how is the situation outside?"

Zhang Tinghai's face was full of nervousness, he helped him to his chair, brought him another cup of tea, and asked.

"master……"

The short and fat man swallowed the tea in one gulp, and hurriedly said,
"The forbidden army didn't make a fuss at all!"

"It is said that nine generals were going to make trouble, but they were killed by the master of the twelve prisons and the guards of the Tengxiang camp before they even got together. The other party seemed to know that they would make trouble. I didn't give them a chance..."

"hiss……"

Hearing these words, Zhang Tinghai's expression changed slightly, and he took a deep breath.

Su Hanyun said that the officials of all sizes in Chang'an City were under his surveillance, and that the imperial army was going to make trouble, and he knew it clearly, it turned out to be true, he didn't lie to himself!

Otherwise, how could he suppress the imperial army so quickly?

Now, the imperial army, Zhou An, is equivalent to being defeated...

Next...

Zhang Tinghai turned his head and saw the gazebo in the distance through the window, the stone table inside was still broken into two countless pieces, and Su Hanyun's gloomy and evil eyes and words appeared before his eyes again.

His heart was beating violently, and his face was pale.

Whoa!

He was in a daze, and fell on the chair behind him, completely losing all energy.

His only glimmer of hope is gone!

Now, he doesn't dare to join forces with Chen Bingli again, and the imperial army has been suppressed. At most, these civil servants can stir up some public opinion, and then let the court of the Great Zhou be in chaos for a while. It is impossible for His Majesty and Su Hanyun to have too much damage damaged!
It is only a matter of time before Su Hanyun gets rid of them!
If you mix it up...

I'm afraid it will end badly!
but……

He was very worried again, if he cooperates with Su Hanyun to contain Chen Bingli, if he completely solves Zhou An and Chen Bingli in the future, will he let himself go as he said?
If he killed the donkey, he would have no room to resist at all!

Zhang Tinghai frowned into a pimple, and his eyes were a little desperate. After hesitating for a long time, he finally made up his mind and said to himself,
"Right now, fighting with Su Hanyun will lead to death, why not help him..."

"In this case, if he keeps his promise, all the officials in the Zhang family can still have a chance of survival, which is better than fighting him and dying!"

"Hey……"

Sighing deeply, Zhang Tinghai got up slowly, and told the servant who reported the letter,

"Go and help the old man prepare the court clothes for tomorrow's court!"

"The old man will go to court tomorrow!"

"Yes, sir!"
