Hearing the objections of his confidant made Zhou Shiming feel extremely furious.
"Ever since I took over the position of the late Emperor, I have been thinking about Great Zhou all the time. Every day, I sleep thinking about the common people, but those vassal kings are doing all sorts of actions behind my back. They are trying to subvert Great Zhou!"
Zhou Shiming smashed the table hard.
No one knew how depressed he was.
As the Supreme Emperor, he was restricted in every way.
It seemed like everything was calm, but in reality, there were many undercurrents.
The vassal kings were secretly looking for an opportunity to pull Zhou Shiming down from the throne.
If they continued to let him go, what difference would it make if he, the Emperor, did or did not do it?
The critical point was that nine thousand-year-old Wei Zhongxian had not appeared. The Imperial Court's pressure on the seven great sects was getting weaker and weaker.
If they did not make any changes, the Great Zhou Dynasty would be no different from a slow death.
Zhou Shiming was a sinner for all eternity.
It was better to take a gamble and have a chance of survival.
"Sigh, the other Princes have been blinded by power and do not care about the life and death of the Great Zhou Dynasty. If your Majesty insists, I am willing to advance or retreat with the Great Zhou Dynasty." Fang Yuanqing saw that Zhou Shiming had made up his mind, and he probably could not change it.
No matter how significant the risk was, he had to do it.
"Haha, as expected of the pillar of strength left to me by the late Emperor. The unstable great Zhou dynasty, I am here to quell this storm!" Zhou Shimin laughed loudly. With Fang Yuanqing's support, he gained some confidence.
That night, the Emperor and Ministers began to plan for the withdrawal of the vassal.
...
He Chuan, who was in the library, continued to cultivate.
He was completely unaware of what was about to happen in the world.
In any case, he was happy to be free, as long as it did not affect his cultivation in the library!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEvery day, he would clean up, check in with the system, and cultivate the Sunflower Bible and Pure Yang Technique.
Right now, he was in a state where he had no desires.
He was like the monk who sweeps the floor in s. He did not seem eye-catching, but in fact, his strength was extraordinary.
Looking at the fallen leaves in the courtyard, He Chuan thought of how the aunts and uncles practiced Taichi in the park.
When bored, he started practicing a set of Taichi movement.
The fallen leaves gradually gathered together with his dance, forming a ball that attached to He Chuan's hand and did not disperse.
However, his fist did not stop the Taichi movement. He continued to practice as he played with the ball formed by the fallen leaves.
If anyone else saw this, they would definitely be shocked. Because He Chuan seemed to be returning to the basics.
All of a sudden, he pushed the ball made of fallen leaves into the air above the rubbish pile.
The ball made of the fallen leaf was out of the vital essence's control and fell into the rubbish pile.
"Little Eunuch He!" Princess Changning's familiar voice sounded.
The current Changning already looked like a beauty. She would be a beauty that could topple kingdoms and cities in time.
"Your subject greets your highness the eldest princess. Why isn't Prince Cheng'an here?" He Chuan had a warm smile on his face.
Changning and Cheng'an basically came to the library together. This time, they came alone. Could it be that something had happened?
"Father said that as the eldest son of the Emperor, he might be the future Crown Prince. He needs to learn more about government affairs. He can't always think about playing," Princess Changning said.
So it was about learning about government affairs. He Chuan's worried heart also relaxed.
The two children had been with him for so many years, and they always had feelings for each other.
"Little Eunuch He, when I was practicing recently, I always felt something was wrong. My breathing was unstable." Princess Changning and Cheng'an's martial arts were taught by He Chuan.
If anything was wrong, they would come to him and ask about it.
"Her Highness the Eldest Princess is exercising now. Let me help you see what the problem is." He Chuan put his hands behind his back. For such a small matter, it was still easy to handle.
Princess Changning began to circulate her energy according to his instructions.
He Chuan released his consciousness and followed the other party's movements to carefully observe.
"Alright, there's a deviation in the way you circulate your energy. It's different from what I told Her Highness the Eldest Princess. Are you slacking off again?" He Chuan said dotingly.
Princess Changning stuck out her tongue in embarrassment.
After He Chuan's correction, Princess Changning's problem was solved.
"Little Eunuch He is still the best!"
"I think Her Highness the Eldest Princess is the best. She didn't understand the essence of the energy circulation clearly and dared to try it herself. I can't even compare to her," He Chuan said snappily.
Princess Changning saw that he was angry and quickly admitted her mistake.
He naturally wouldn't really be angry at the Eldest Princess when she put on that look.
After a few words of education, the two took out Go and began to play.
...
Recently, the people in the palace were in a state of panic. Cheng'an and Changning also didn't come to the library anymore.
He Chuan was a little curious about this. Just what kind of major event could make the inner court of the Imperial Palace panic.
He released his consciousness and listened to the conversation in the palace.
It turned out that Zhou Shimin had summoned eight vassal kings back to the capital in the name of the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet.
However, how could the vassal kings not know that the capital was a dragon's and a tiger's den? How could they come back to court death?
Not to mention the Empress Dowager's birthday banquet, even if the late Emperor were to come out of his coffin, they would never come back.
All sorts of reasons were presented to Zhou Shimin, making the Emperor fly into a rage.
It made sense to say that he was sick.
The Ninth Prince actually said that the capital was a little cold and did not want to return to suffer the cold.
He was obviously slapping the Emperor in the face.
Now that he had an excuse, Zhou Shimin immediately issued the order to withdraw.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs for the eight vessel kings, how could they simply sit there and wait for death? Using the excuse of cleaning up the monarch, they led their troops straight to the capital.
The Imperial Court soldiers saw that they had rarely experienced the flames of war. As the eight vessel kings guarded the border all year round, the soldiers under them were stronger in both battle and discipline than the imperial court.
After the two armies met in a fierce battle, the Vessel Kings Alliance Army won.
The Imperial Court army retreated in defeat.
The Marshal of the three armies was even killed by a mysterious expert sent by the alliance army in front of the two armies.
The moral of the Imperial Court army without a leader fell to rock bottom.
Seeing the Zhou Dynasty lose, many people fell to the eight vessel kings.
There were rumors in the pugilistic world that 9000-year-old Wei Zhengchun had died, and there were no experts in the Zhou Dynasty.
Shaolin, Wudang, Emei, Kongtong, Huashan, Qingcheng, and Kunlun had spread the word that they would support the eight vassal kings.
The Zhou Emperor was already muddle-headed, and it was time for someone else to take his position.
When they broke through the capital, they would use the head of the muddle-headed Zhou Shimin to worship the heavens.
In any case, all sorts of unfavorable rumors were spreading like wildfire.
Some eunuchs and palace maids even sneaked out of the palace.
They weren't willing to die with Zhou Shimin.
In the entire palace, He Chuan was probably the only one who didn't know about this matter.
He had to admit that he was really big-hearted.
After He Chuan learned the whole story, he had a headache.
Originally, the fight for Imperial Power had nothing to do with him, so he didn't want to interfere.
However, the victory of the alliance army of the vassal kings would definitely wipe out all the trusted aides of the previous Emperor.
With his strength, he naturally wouldn't be afraid, but he couldn't continue to stay in the library pavilion.
Furthermore, the eldest Prince Cheng'an and the eldest princess Changning would probably die along with Zhou Shimin.
This was a scene he didn't want to see.
"These bastards really know how to cause trouble. They're living a good life, yet they have to rebel. It looks like if I can't just stay and don't make a move. I'll help as much as I can," He Chuan thought to himself.
The key was that he did not want his stable life to be disrupted.
He also did not want the two children to suffer such an unexpected disaster.
