Wei Wuhou

Chapter 831 A Rare Banquet 3
When Zhang Hao left his government office, he also conveyed the order to surround Zhou's mansion.

Although he has a lot of people under his command, their tasks are heavy, and all he can do is to control the Zhou Mansion.

But Zhang Hao didn't know that less than half an hour after arresting people here, the young master of the Zhou family knew that something was wrong, and then quietly disappeared in Linzi City.

But the rest of the Zhou family were not so lucky. Many people didn't even know what was going on, so they were ordered not to take a step out of the gate.

And Zhang Hao himself rushed to the palace. He wanted to report the matter to the monarch as soon as possible. This matter was definitely not something he could take care of.

When Zhang Hao walked all the way into the palace and stepped into the garden where the banquet was held, he saw Zhou Yuan, the head of the Zhou family who was different from others.

Unlike other people's jokes and jokes, Zhou Yuan, the Patriarch of the Zhou family, seemed to be preoccupied and out of tune with the current atmosphere.

This is the manifestation of a ghost in his heart... Zhang Hao thought to himself, and at the same time approached Tian Yuwen in a low-key manner along the side of the garden.

After drinking for three rounds, Tian Yuwen was a little tipsy, but not yet drunk.

Tian Yuwen leaned on the backrest, watched the singing and dancing in front of him with a smile on his face, and he really relaxed.

At this time, Zhang Hao came to Tian Yuwen and whispered: "Your Majesty, the matter has been clarified..."

Tian Yuwen looked at the beautiful figure dancing in front of him, and then asked, "What has been clarified?"

After drinking the wine just now, the whole person relaxed amidst the melodious sounds, and for a while, he didn't think of what Zhang Hao reported before.

Zhang Hao then reminded: "Reporting to Your Majesty, you have already found clues to the matter you asked me to investigate this morning!"

After being reminded by Zhang Hao, Tian Yuwen remembered the matter of the South Gate, so he turned around and asked, "What did you find out?"

Zhang Hao glanced at Zhou Yuan not far away, and then said: "Your Majesty, under the rush of time, I only found out that this matter is related to the Zhou family!"

"The Zhou family, that Zhou family?" Tian Yuwen asked with a change of expression, obviously he already had a guess in his heart.

Zhang Hao glanced at Zhou Yuan again, then pointed at him and said, "Your Majesty, it's their Zhou family!"

After confirming who it was, Tian Yuwen felt more puzzled besides anger. He didn't understand why the Zhou family rebelled.

I have already forgiven them, and I have never done anything to settle accounts after autumn. Why do these people repay virtue with grievances.

Suppressing his anger, Tian Yuwen then asked: "How is the situation now?"

Zhang Hao had been prepared for a long time, and then he answered with a clear mind: "Reporting to your lord, the four gates of Linzi are safe and stable. I have already informed the various departments of the Linzi garrison to remind them to take precautions both inside and outside..."

"As for Zhou Jia, I have already sent someone to control his mansion, just waiting for your majesty to deal with it!"

"Zhou family... Zhou family..." Tian Yuwen read it twice in a row, and the second time came out of his teeth.

Then, I heard him shout loudly: "Zhou Yuan..."

When Zhou Yuan saw that Zhang Hao was whispering to the monarch, but not looking at him, he had a bad premonition in his heart.

Under Tian Yuwen's shout, Zhou Yuan almost collapsed from his seat, and then he knew that something happened to Dong Chuang.

Kneeling down slowly on the ground, Zhou Yuan tremblingly said: "The minister is here..."

Seeing this sudden change, all the ministers present were astonished, and they didn't understand how a good banquet could suddenly become tense.

At this moment, Tian Yuwen grabbed the wine cup in front of him, slammed it on Zhou Yuan and said, "You old man, why did you betray the widow and Qi State?"

Zhou Yuan's heart was ashamed at this time, he knew that this hurdle could not be avoided, so he did not do it for himself.He just wanted to die and said: "I made a big mistake. Now that I have embarked on this road, I can only let luck and misfortune!"

Tian Yuwen was in a hurry at this time, and he was speechless after hearing Zhou Yuan's words, but Zhang Hao who was beside him chimed in and said, "You old man, Your Majesty has favored you with rebirth, why did you collude with the people of Wei? Bad intentions?"

Now, the bewildered ministers of the Qi State knew what had happened. It turned out that the Zhou family colluded with the Wei people to rebel.

The anger of the crowd was ignited immediately, they all worked desperately to resist the Wei army, but there was someone who disrupted the situation here.

"Bastard, are you worthy of your ancestor who died at the hands of Wei Jun?" A senior minister asked coldly, and at the same time imitated Tian Yuwen, picked up the jug and threw it at Zhou Yuan.

There were several people doing this action, so Zhou Yuan, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly had his head bleeding.

At this time, Tian Yuwen didn't want to ask why, but directly said to Zhang Hao: "Take him away, I don't want to see him again!"

Immediately, guards stepped forward to control Zhou Yuan, and then dragged him out of the garden, leaving all the ministers angrily.

After Zhou Yuan was taken away, Tian Yuwen confessed again: "Go, send someone to guard Zhou's family, don't let anyone go!"

Without Tian Yuwen's explanation, Zhang Hao had already arranged it.

At this moment, a minister from below said: "Your Majesty, Zhou Yuan's collusion with the Wei people has committed a heinous crime. If this person is not eliminated, the law of heaven will not tolerate it!"

This is of course nonsense, Zhou Yuan has colluded with Wei Guoren, how could Tian Yuwen let him go.

The reason why Zhang Hao was allowed to control Zhou Yuan's family was that Tian Yuwen had already planned to kill Zhou Jia's family.

At this point, the banquet could not go on, but Tian Yuwen didn't want to end it hastily just because of Zhou Yuan's matter, so the banquet continued in a strange atmosphere.

But sometimes when the house leaks and it rains overnight, Tian Yuwen wants to keep his integrity as much as possible, but Zhang Hao receives bad news at this time.

Wei Guo's army has moved today, all the armies surrounding Linzi are advancing, and their posture seems to be attacking the city.

This is an emergency, Zhang Hao didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and immediately conveyed the news to Tian Yuwen.

Originally Zhang Hao thought that the monarch would be furious, but Tian Yuwen remained calm.

Even after the waiter replaced the wine cup, Tian Yuwen filled a glass for himself at this time.

After slowly drinking the wine in the cup, Tian Yuwen looked up at the ministers in front of him and said, "Everyone, Wei Jun has finally moved!"

These words are only a few words, but they are more moving than what happened to Zhou Yuan just now, the expressions of all the ministers present have changed.

There is no doubt about the strength of the Wei army. Although everyone shouted the slogan that the Qi army must win, they still had no idea.

At this time, Tian Yuwen also watched the reactions of the ministers, and he was disappointed by the performance of these people.

"You look preoccupied, what are you thinking?" Tian Yuwen asked coldly.

At this time, no one dared to come out and intervene, so that they might become the target of public criticism and bear the anger of the monarch alone.

But this is not the time to punish people, the defense of the Wei army is the key point, so Tian Yuwen said in a deep voice: "Everyone, the Wei army is coming fiercely, and no one in Linzi City can survive alone, so repelling the Wei army's attack is the only way out..."

"Your status and power... all come from Qi State. If Linzi is there, Qi State will be here. If Qi State is here, you and my monarchs will be here!"

Tian Yuwen's words are more objective. Everyone present is at the top of the Qi Dynasty, and their power and status are the last things they can abandon.

Especially those who have been following Tian Yuwen, they are all from humble backgrounds, and they managed to get to such a high position with great difficulty, how could they be willing to be beaten back to their original place by the Wei army's attack.

After weighing the pros and cons, the attitudes of the ministers present have changed significantly.

People are always selfish. Once their own interests are seriously harmed, they will try their best to stop it.

Therefore, Tian Yuwen mobilized everyone's enthusiasm from the root without giving an impassioned speech.

As a result, everyone in the room stood up, and then bowed to Tian Yuwen: "Your Majesty taught me a lesson, and I will keep it in mind, and I will fight against the Wei people with all my strength!"
