When the emperor's death was mentioned, Shi Man burst into tears again, with tears pouring down, and even the lapels of her clothes were soaked with tears.

This was the first time Zhao Mu saw someone cry so much.

He didn't like women crying, but he was more curious about how many tears this woman could shed.

Other women were made of water, but this queen was probably made of tears.

Although she cried very wildly, Shi Man didn't dare to delay Zhao Mu's time, and told him about the experience of the Zhou emperor in bits and pieces.

Emperor Zhou Qiuyu was killed by Shi Man himself.

Strictly speaking, it was not the emperor who was killed, but Zhou Qiuyu who had become a zombie puppet.

Not long ago, the evil man Wang Xian used a secret corpse poison to train the emperor into a zombie.

Wang Xian's method was very covert. Originally, he wanted to completely control the emperor without being discovered by outsiders, turning the emperor into a puppet who only obeyed his orders, so that he could sit behind the scenes and further strengthen his control over the Great Zhou Dynasty with the emperor's hands.

Everyone in the palace was deceived.

But Shi Man was the only exception.

Shi Man was also a cultivator. Although she was only practicing Qi, her physique was quite special. She was born with a pair of Yin-Yang eyes, which could see through ghosts and evil things.

When she saw the emperor, Shi Man immediately knew that the emperor was dead, and only a soulless corpse remained.

It was at this time that Shi Man wrote to Shi Rui, asking for her sister's help.

After all, her cultivation was very low, and she was very afraid of the evil man Wang Xian, and she did not dare to expose her ability, otherwise she would definitely be eliminated together.

Then what happened today, Shi Rui returned to the palace, saw through the evil man Wang Xian's treacherous plan, and started a war.

While Zhao Mu and Wang Xian were fighting in the imperial garden, fighting was also happening in other parts of the palace.

Emperor Zhou Qiuyu was controlled by the evil man and was ready to activate the ancient royal formation buried under the palace.

This formation has existed for ten thousand years and is a trump card of the royal family. Once the formation is activated, the emperor can use the power of the formation to trap all invading enemies, and even open a sky prison deep underground to directly teleport the invading enemies to the sky prison. Once trapped, even a Yuanying strongman will find it difficult to escape.

When Wang Xian realized that Zhao Mu's strength was difficult to deal with, he actually thought of imprisoning Zhao Mu, so he secretly controlled the emperor Zhou Qiuyu to activate the formation.

But Shi Man had been secretly watching the emperor's actions. When the emperor was about to activate the formation, she rushed out at the risk of her life and pierced the back of the emperor's head with a magic dagger stained with black dog blood.

In this way, the formation was prevented from being activated.

Zhao Mu was secretly shocked when he heard this.

If Shi Man hadn't taken action and let Wang Xian secretly activate the royal formation, his situation would probably be much more dangerous.

It was almost equivalent to Shi Man helping him.

This queen is really brave and resourceful.

"You bear the name of regicide and husband-killing, aren't you afraid of being cursed by the people of Zhou?" Zhao Mu asked.

Shi Man said: "The situation was critical at the time. I knew my sister was also in the imperial garden. I couldn't let the evil man succeed in his evil plan. So even if I had to bear the name of regicide, I had to do it. Moreover... Although I married into the royal family at an early age and became the queen, I had no feelings for the emperor. The emperor has been obsessed with refining various immortality pills since he was young. He eats pills as food every day, and his brain has been damaged."

As he spoke, Zhao Mu found that Shi Man was sitting closer and closer to him, and her shoulders were close to Zhao Mu.

Looking more carefully, Shi Man's earlobes were red, her neck was sweating, and her eyes kept wandering around Zhao Mu.

Feeling...

She seemed very thirsty...

Zhao Mu was not too surprised.

His Red Sun Holy Body was indeed a sweet commodity for women.

Anyone who saw it wanted to take a bite.

"Queen, please respect yourself." Zhao Mu kindly reminded.

If she is not asked to pay attention to her image, she will drool.

Shi Man restrained herself a little, but she still couldn't bear to take her eyes off Zhao Mu.

"Master, you saved my sister and the entire Great Zhou Dynasty. If you need anything, just ask. I will do my best to satisfy you." Shi Man bit her red lips lightly, her expression was charming.

If Zhao Mu was a young man, he would probably be fascinated by her at this moment.

However, Zhao Mu has experienced many battles, and Shi Man's little tricks alone are not enough to seduce Zhao Mu.

But Shi Man didn't look like she did it on purpose, it was more like an instinctive reaction.

She must have been thirsty for too long.

Zhao Mu said lightly: "If I want to annex the Great Zhou Dynasty in the name of Zhao State and turn Da Zhou into Zhao State's territory, can you help me?"

As soon as these words came out, Shi Man shuddered and her thoughts became clear.

He looked at Zhao Mu in disbelief: "Master, are you serious?"

With Zhao Mu's strength, if he wanted to help Zhao attack Da Zhou, Da Zhou would probably have no power to resist.

Once the war started, there would be bloodshed and countless lives would be lost.

"The previous emperor of Zhao has been expelled by me, and the current emperor is my father. Do you think I am serious?" Zhao Mu looked at Shi Man with a dignified look.

Shi Man was silent.

She quickly calculated the situation in her mind. Zhou was now seriously injured. Although a lean camel was bigger than a horse, it was still easy to deal with a small Zhao, but Zhao Mu's strength was too strong.

An evil man named Wang Xian could manipulate the Zhou Kingdom, but Zhao Mu killed Wang Xian with thunderbolts. His strength must be far superior to Wang Xian.

He didn't even need to assist Zhao in attacking the Zhou Kingdom. As long as he started a small killing spree, the royal family of the Zhou Kingdom would probably be exterminated.

A powerful cultivator, fighting against a country alone, is no joke.

When a strong man gets angry, corpses are everywhere.

The Zhou Kingdom can't afford such a fate.

Now that the emperor is dead, according to the tradition of the Zhou Kingdom, before the new ruler is established, she, the queen, has the right to rule the world. If she has enough support, she can even ascend the throne in the name of the empress and become the ruler of the Zhou Kingdom.

She must be responsible for her people.

And at this moment, surrender may be the only way to survive.

"Master, if Zhou surrenders to Zhao, how will you deal with the royal family and people of Zhou?"

"The royal family will grant noble titles, and the people will be equal to Zhao, without distinction, and will all be people of Zhao in the future."

What Zhao Mu wants is a complete Zhou. If he can take Zhou without bloodshed, that would be the best outcome.

Shi Man stood up and bowed: "Master, please give me one day. I will find a way to persuade the royal children. After one day, no matter what the result is, I will come to report to you."

Zhao Mu nodded: "If you succeed in persuading Zhou to surrender, all the military power of Zhou will be handed over to you. You don't need to submit to anyone except me, just obey my orders."
