Imperial City, Prime Minister Manor.
Feng Qingheng's face was filled with embarrassment, and a hint of malice flashed in his eyes. He asked coldly,"Does the empress really intend to summon the Marquis of Zhenbei back to the capital?”
"I have this plan."
In front of him, Minister of War Zhang Yi slowly nodded.
"However, this humble subject surmises that the Empress only has this intention.”
Recalling the hesitation in the empress's eyes in the court today, Zhang Yi said,""Under my advice, the empress should be wary of the Marquis of Zhenbei.”
"Alright."
When Feng Qingheng heard this, the corners of his mouth immediately curled up into a smile.
However, his expression immediately turned cold as he said solemnly,"The Northguard Marquis is unfathomable.”
"We must not let him return to the capital.”
Zhang Yi nodded in agreement.
There was no doubt that the name of the Marquis of Zhenbei was a deterrent in the Great Zhou. No one dared to provoke him.
No one would think that they could arm wrestle with the other party.
"What a pity."
Feng Qingheng seemed to have thought of something and shook his head helplessly.
"The Northguard Marquis has been standing against us since the late emperor was alive.”
"Otherwise."
"With this person around, what do we have to worry about?”
When the late emperor was still in power, Feng Qingheng had tried to rope Li Qinghou in, but he had failed.
Li Qinghou didn't care about the Prime Minister of the Great Zhou trying to rope him in.
Although Feng Qingheng was the prime minister, he was just a parasite of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
As far as Li Qinghou was concerned, he wasn't worthy.
"I don't know what this person is thinking. Back then, he held a large army and his prestige was even greater than the previous emperor.”
"At that time, the power in his hands would be enough to overturn the Great Zhou and establish himself as king.”
"However, he handed over his military power without any resistance.”
When Zhang Yi said this, a sneer hung on the corner of his mouth." Although he was conferred the title of Northguard Marquis and was in charge of the northern territory.”
"But everyone knows that this is just an excuse.”
"What the late emperor wanted to do was to borrow the hands of the Hu in the north so that this person would never be able to leave the north.”
"The late emperor is afraid."
As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Yi could not help but sigh.
The foundation of the Great Zhou Imperial Family was very strong.
It was so strong that the ministers who held great power did not dare to make any strange movements.
They only dared to do some dirty things in the dark.
Yet, the royal family, which had such a deep foundation, still held a deep grudge against the Marquis of Zhenbei. They didn't even dare to lay a hand on him.
"Anyway,"
" Northguard Marquis, you cannot return to the capital."
Feng Qingheng stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes shining as he stared at the moon.
He had ambition.
Although he had never thought of subverting the Great Zhou Imperial Family and becoming king himself to control the Great Zhou Empire.
However, he wanted to be a true powerful official.
He held the emperor hostage and ordered the Great Zhou Dynasty.
When the previous emperor was still in power, he didn't have the chance.
In fact, he did not even stand a chance against any of the princes who succeeded to the throne, but the previous emperor had allowed the Eldest Princess to succeed.
The moment he saw the imperial edict, Feng Qingheng knew that his chance had come.
...
......
In the Imperial Palace.
The empress was so angry and frustrated that she went to the imperial garden alone to relax.
"Among the vassal kings, the King of Yan is the strongest.”
"Prince Li is second, but he is also so strong that I can't fight against him.”
"As for the King of Qin and the King of Zhao."
"They used to follow my father to the south and the north. They have a large number of troops and are good at fighting.”
"We can't underestimate him either."
The empress could not help but sigh helplessly when she thought about how her imperial uncles were not idiots. On the contrary, they were all people who were good at fighting.
"Father, you've really left me with a difficult problem."”
There was no trash in the Great Zhou Dynasty's royal family.
Even the mediocre Second Prince Chu Heng had his merits.
His mediocrity was only relative to the rest of the royal family.
If he was compared to the other princes, he would be outstanding.
"Other than the Marquis of Zhenbei, who else in the Great Zhou can suppress my imperial uncles?”
"Marquis Zhennan?"
"This person is useful, but he alone is comparable to the King of Qin and the King of Zhao.”
"Against the likes of King Li and King Yan, it would be difficult to resist.”
After pondering for a while, a helpless look appeared in the empress's eyes.
It was not that the Great Zhou generals were not strong enough.
It was her imperial uncles. They were all too terrifying.
"What a pity."
"This emperor simulator can only simulate the members of the royal family. Currently, only Chu Heng can be simulated.”
At this point, the empress felt depressed.
If the Emperor Simulation Device could simulate Northguard Marquis, then she would be able to enter the simulation.
He wanted to see if the other party had any intentions of rebellion and decide whether to summon him into the capital.
Why was he so conflicted and unable to make a decision?
"Hmm?"
Just as the empress was feeling increasingly frustrated, a figure passing by not far away caught her attention.
"Is that the Third Prince Chu Wen?"
Even though she only saw a back view, the empress could tell at a glance that the person was her other royal brother, the third prince of Great Zhou, Chu Wen.
"It's so late. What's he doing here?”
Although she had some doubts in her heart, the empress did not think of asking further.
There were many rules in the palace, but none of them said that the prince couldn't walk in the palace at night.
[Simulate target added: Third Prince Chu Wen]
The empress retracted her gaze and immediately heard a familiar voice ringing in her mind.
"There's actually an additional simulation target?”
Upon hearing the voice, the empress couldn't help but feel delighted. She hurriedly turned on the simulator.
Immediately, a transparent light screen unfolded in front of him.
[Simulate Target: Chu Heng, Chu Wen]
Chu Heng could simulate his identity as a prince, emperor, or commoner.
Chu Wen could simulate his identity as the Prince of Great Zhou, the Emperor of Great Zhou, the King of Great Qian, and the Emperor of Great Qian.
"What happened?"
"In Chu Wen's simulated identity, why would there be the choice of the Great Qian Dynasty's vassal king and emperor?”
After seeing the content on the screen, the empress's expression changed immediately, revealing a trace of disbelief.
The prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
What did it mean that there was actually a vassal king of Da Qian in his life?
"Damn it!"
The Water Empress looked embarrassed. Although she still knew what was going on, she already had some guesses in her heart.
Boundless anger rose from the bottom of his heart.
An extremely cold aura filled the entire imperial garden. The water in the pond had already frozen.
"Chu Wen."
"Not a prince of our dynasty?"
The empress's face was as cold as ice, and her eyes were as cold as swords as she spoke with difficulty.
Although this was very unbelievable.
However, the empress did not believe that Chu Wen would be able to sit on the throne of Da Qian if he was not a member of the royal family.
