"Master Chen! It's you!"
"All these years. I've been looking for you so hard!"
Seeing the man's appearance, the empress's expression changed. She killed the surrounding rebel soldiers with her palm and leaped over.
Zhou An also sized up the middle-aged man with white hair and a determined expression.
Although he had never seen this person with his own eyes, he knew who this person was!
Chen Anwu.
This name could be said to have shocked the world in the previous dynasty.
This person came from a proper military background and had no sect. He started as a soldier and comprehended a set of Tiangang Indestructible Divine Art on the battlefield. He had made countless contributions!
He broke through to the Great Grandmaster Realm at the age of 30 and became the governor with outstanding military achievements.
Seven years ago, the Nanman Kingdom invaded the territory.
Chen Anwu, who was the Pingxi General and the Commander-in-Chief of the Five Armies, was ordered by Emperor Chengzong to set out. The Fourth Princess, Xiao Qingmei, was the adjutant.
The two of them were both teachers and friends. They worked together and defeated a million barbarian soldiers at the border of South Yue. They chased after the barbarians all the way to their nest, Giant God Stronghold. They returned triumphantly and shook the Nine Regions!
At that time, although Zhou An was just an invisible eunuch who did not have a system to support him, he still remembered that the people of the world were overjoyed that year. Even Liu Jin and Wei Dachuan, the two sworn enemies, would nod and say a few polite words when they met.
However, just as the army was about to make their triumphant return.
News came from the front line that the commander, Chen Anwu, had suddenly disappeared!
The command of the 800,000-strong army and the 10,000-strong martial army of the Nanman Kingdom had all fallen into the hands of Empress Xiao Qingmei.
This was also the foreshadowing of the "Z Change in July".
When he was in the East Hall, Liu Jin often talked about this matter, but even the well-informed East Hall Master did not know much about the inside story.
However, Zhou An was able to guess a few things.
He had grown up with Empress Xiao Qingmei for so many years and knew her all too well!
Not to mention Chen Anwu, in terms of scheming and scheming, even the group of brave and reckless generals from the previous dynasty were not even enough to match up to the empress's finger!
The empress walked over.
Chen Anwu remained kneeling on the ground and said without raising his head,"Princess! Please don't call me master. I can't bear the responsibility!”
"Teacher Chen, I'm sorry. I lied to you."
The empress's eyes reddened as she helped Chen Anwu up."Master for a day, master for life. You will always be my master!”
Chen Anwu gritted his teeth and said in a trembling voice," Princess, you don't have to apologize. It's me who lacks wisdom. I've let down Emperor Chengzong. I'm a sinner of the Great Xuan Dynasty!"”
"You are not guilty!" The empress's eyes suddenly became resolute. I'm not guilty!"
"Ever since I ascended the throne, I suppressed the various factions and families in the court, abolished the maladministration of the previous dynasty, and personally formulated the 'Martial Law'. I sent Princess Huaizhen to the Green Mist Sword Sect to break the ice and build a good relationship with the folk martial arts world!”
"External! In the past seven years, I have used both kindness and power to take in the Giant Whale Sect, the Sea Kun Sect, and many other forces along the southeast coast. I have joined forces with the Imperial Court to fight against the Japanese at sea! In recent years, the people of Donghai had been living and working in peace and contentment, and were no longer harassed by the Japanese pirates!”
"Tell me! In what way was I inferior to the previous emperor?" the empress said sternly.
"Princess is talented and talented. In my eyes, she is the number one person in the Xiao family!”
"But!" The monarch is the monarch, and the subject is the subject. The law and principle cannot be messed up! You plotted to usurp the throne, and the heavens will not tolerate it!”
"General Chen, may I have a word with you?”
Zhou An walked over.
"Governor Zhou, I've long heard of your name."
Chen Anwu looked at the young man in front of him.""That group of sycophants from the West Hall oppressed the people and harmed the loyal. You've done a good job."
"Thank you for your affirmation, senior.”
Zhou An said," First of all, let's not talk about anything else. Back then, I was a commoner in a small fishing village in the East China Sea. The Japanese pirates repeatedly invaded the territory, burning, killing, and looting. The people suffered. I witnessed all of this with my own eyes.”
"After His Majesty ascended the throne, he strengthened the border defense and organized the fleet to take the initiative to attack. He wiped out many of the Japanese pirates 'strongholds, so that these devils would not dare to easily go south again.”
" It can be said that the peace at the border of the East Sea in the past seven years is all thanks to His Majesty. The people along the coast all praise him as the savior of the world. You can even see many temples built by the people for His Majesty.”
"Such a monarch who can bring stability to her subjects, everyone praises her. If you say she's a traitor, who do you think you are?”
Zhou An's expression suddenly became stern." You want to overthrow a capable ruler who has been working hard to make the world peaceful for the sake of a fatuous and incompetent ruler who studies lewd and evil techniques all day long? Where is the justice in this world?" Where's your martial virtue and conscience?!"
"This..."
Chen Anwu's expression changed when he heard this. His body trembled as if his soul had been touched.
"Xiao An Zi, thank you."
At this moment, the empress couldn't hold it in any longer. With tears in her eyes, she walked over gently and wrapped her arms around Zhou An's waist from behind.
"Your Majesty, you…"
Feeling the soft touch on his back, Zhou An was also stunned.
"Wow, Royal Sister, you…"
Xiao Huaizhen, who was standing at the side, was also stunned. Her eyes were wide open. Even someone as naive as her felt a subtle hint of jealousy in her heart!
No! Xiao An Zi belongs to everyone! Zhener also wants to carry Xiao Anzi!
She thought indignantly.
Chen Anwu was also a little confused. Then, he quickly returned to the main topic."Princess! I can't fight you. I'll commit suicide here today. If you really treat me as your master, I hope you can return the power to the late emperor!”
At this moment, a demonic figure appeared in the void!
"Chen Anwu! I knew you were unreliable!"
A hoarse voice that was neither male nor female, like a demon from hell, sounded.
"General Chen! Be careful!" Zhou An circulated his True Force and a Shadowless God Needle shot out!
However, he was still a step too late!
Chi!
In the darkness, an arm covered in centipedes and venomous snakes, covered in rotten flesh, broke through the air!
It pierced through Chen Anwu's chest!
At the same time, Zhou An's attack had also cut open the other party's face, leaving a shocking bloody hole!
"What a eunuch and a dog! What a fierce method! You actually injured my main body!"
Under the moonlight, the demonic figure finally revealed a hideous and terrifying face.
No, to be precise, it was no longer a face!
His face was covered in maggots and rotting flesh. Moreover, his body seemed to be stitched together. The facial features and expressions of the two faces were completely different!
It looked like a two-headed demon that had crawled out of hell!
"Second brother?" Xiao Huaizhen's face was filled with shock, and his entire body was trembling!
"Oh my god, he actually turned you into this.”
The empress was also shocked.
