Chapter 800 The whole family is a rebel (84)

This is bound to be a sleepless night.

All the officials like Li Cong who had held important positions in Beidi or had extensive connections with Beidi were thrown into jail, while Zhou Jin and other ministers who had been impeaching the king and his son of Beidi and who had a clear distinction between themselves and Beidi were kept in the palace.

Although they did not recognize Chen Shen, the prince who suddenly appeared, they had to obey the orders of the "prince" who controlled the Langwei Army.

Those who know the current affairs are handsome.

As subjects, as subjects who survived after the emperor went mad and killed many ministers from aristocratic families, they would never act rashly before understanding the new prince's temper. Only in this way can they protect themselves and ensure the survival of their family.

As the new prince's benefactor and old friend, Zhou Jin was naturally left alone.

The moment Zhou Jin stepped out of the line, the other ministers' eyes instantly fell on him, and their eyes seemed to be saying that there was a traitor among them.

Some people also look envious.

The prince’s benefactor.

With the rest of the princes either dead, deposed or useless, if nothing unexpected happens and the crown prince successfully ascends the throne to become emperor, then Zhou Jin will become Your Majesty's benefactor. Wouldn't Zhou Jin be able to walk all over the court at that time?
Really, why didn’t they encounter such a good thing in the first place?

After the others were "invited" out by Lang Wei, the crown prince came down from the upper seat, took Zhou Jin's hand affectionately, and said earnestly: "Censor Zhou, every word I just said is true. If it weren't for Duke Zhou, I wouldn't be where I am today."

"Your Highness is serious..."

"Duke Zhou doesn't believe me?"

The prince showed a sad look on his face, "Could it be that Duke Zhou is also like those adults with ulterior motives, doubting the authenticity of me as the prince?"

Zhou Jin said calmly, "I dare not. It's just that your Majesty told me a few days ago that you want me to go to the palace on a certain day to discuss the appointment of a crown prince. Today, your Majesty urgently summoned us to the palace. We did not see your Majesty, but we saw the 'crown prince'. I am deeply blessed by the emperor, and I dare not disappoint your Majesty's trust!"

The prince's expression became increasingly ugly.

His eyes suddenly became as cold as ice, and he examined Zhou Jin's cautious, calm and unperturbed face. After a moment, he smiled again.

It was so light that it was almost impossible to capture.

But Zhou Jin had been immersed in officialdom for many years and had already developed the ability to read people's expressions. Naturally, he could hear the cold mockery hidden in the prince's laughter, which represented disbelief and control.

Has he been seen through?

This thought flashed through Zhou Jin's mind.

No.

The twelfth prince is indeed more scheming, but not necessarily more scheming than the current emperor. Even the emperor and many people in the court who don't deal with him have not discovered his true position. How can the twelfth prince, who has just emerged, discover it?
Zhou Jin's expression remained unchanged. Instead, he raised his head and looked at the prince with his sharp eyes, as if he wanted to see through him.

The stare didn't last long before the prince gave in.

He gave a fake smile, and said in a helpless and unreasonably doting tone: "Forget it, Duke Zhou has been kind to me, so I will set a precedent and let Duke Zhou meet my father."

Zhou Jin was stunned.

Do you agree?
Is the prince's mind changing too quickly?
Soon, a palace servant came to lead the way for him. Just as he was about to leave, the prince's voice came from behind him, "Father is seriously ill. I took on tremendous pressure to let Duke Zhou see Father. Duke Zhou is a wise man. After he comes out, he will know what to say, right?"

Zhou Jin naturally knew that this was an attempt to drag him into the pirate ship.

Regardless of whether he can really see His Majesty today, since the prince said he "saw" him, it means he really saw him, and his every word and action thereafter will bear the prince's mark.

But Zhou Jin followed the palace maid without any hesitation.

He must know the health condition of His Majesty. This is a matter of great importance to the whole country, and it cannot be neglected or delayed!

……

When Li Cong and others were thrown into prison, Wei also successfully left Chang'an under the cover of his retainers and secret agents in the north. Not long after they left, Qin Shu, who was in the military camp, learned the news that his mansion was surrounded.

Before he had time to think about it, a young man from a powerful family who was in the same room with him and was acquainted with him came to find him and said that the Lang Wei army was here to arrest him and asked him to escape quickly.

At the same time, Xiao Ji's confidants in the army also found Qin Shu.

Qin Shu could see that the other party had no ill will towards him, but he didn't know that Wei had already left Chang'an. He only knew that his house had been raided, and he was worried about his parents' safety, so he was unwilling to leave rashly.

The confidant showed a look of understanding and said, "Young Master Qin, what we are carrying out is not the order of the general, but the arrangement of the young princess..."

"Jin Yan?"

Qin Shu was stunned. He didn't expect to hear the news about Jin Yan from this person.

The confidant said, "That's right. The young master has close contacts with the palace and has some personal connections with the young princess. He must know that the young princess has special skills. The young princess had already anticipated what would happen today, so she arranged everything when she left Chang'an and asked us to protect the young master."

Hearing these words, Qin Shu felt a warm feeling in his heart, but he was still worried about his family.

The confidant said, "Don't worry, my lord. Madam Wei has already left Chang'an City safely under the escort of the general's personal guards, and there will be someone to protect Lord Li!"

Only after everything was arranged did Qin Shu stop doubting and immediately left with his confidant.

Although the military camp had been prepared long ago, some accidents were still inevitable on the way out. As soon as Qin Shu and his party left the camp, they saw the Lang Wei army riding horses to attack the camp at night.

Seeing the other party coming at him aggressively, Qin Shu narrowed his eyes and guessed what might have happened in the palace.

"Young Master, hurry up and leave. They should be catching up with us soon."

"go!"

Qin Shu and his companions did not ride horses, but they were people who marched all year round, so their pace was not slow at all. By the time the people in the barracks discovered that Qin Shu was missing and began to search for him, they had already disappeared without a trace.

At the same time, Jin Yan, who was far away in the north, had a dream.

She dreamed of an unprecedented prosperous era.

The country is peaceful and the people are prosperous. The weather is good and the people live and work in peace and contentment. All the barbarians and small countries from all directions come to pay tribute.

And the people who created this prosperous era were the ones she knew well.

My father and mother, my great-grandfather, my brothers, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and tens of millions of people, as well as the Mohists, farmers, doctors, legalists, Confucians, and all the scholars who hope that the world will be stable...

But soon, an uninvited guest broke into her dream.

"Xiao Jinyan, what about me?"

Jin Yan was awakened from her dream. Thinking of the wonderful dream and the mischievous smile on the face of the uninvited guest, she couldn't help but have the evil idea of ​​physically sending Qin Shu to reincarnation.

However, there are people who are even less romantic than Qin Shu.

For example, Jinyan’s naive system, 288.

This little idiot, after accidentally peeking into Jin Yan's dream, actually said shamelessly: "Host, there is also me! I helped the host find black coal balls, found a lot of gold and silver mines, and I also passed on the message to the host!"

I'm very busy recently, I'll update when I have time!
