"Then what would they do with me if they weren't the remnants of the Chen State? Could they be imperial officials on the surface, but actually hidden remnants of the Chen State?"

Zhao Yan said carefully.

Chu Lan's eyes lit up: "That's right, they are the remnants of the Chen country, otherwise why would they spy on a prince secretly, do you have His Majesty's permission?"

Anyway, they have offended the people behind them, so it's better to directly accuse Chen Guo of remnants.

At least this can prevent the people behind them from attacking the Chu family using this as an excuse.

Behind the scenes, each will see the truth.

"The two seniors of Yin and Yang beheaded the remaining evildoers of the Chen country, and His Highness should ask for their credit." Chu Lan looked at Zhao Yan and said that she must take the initiative to attack, while asking Zhao Yan to submit a letter to ask for credit, while passing the letter to her father.

Zhao Yan replied without hesitation: "Naturally it should be like this. These damned remnants, like maggots with bones, have penetrated into the official system of the empire, which is really frightening."

Chu Lan had some sympathy for him, this silly boy actually thought that these two guys were remnants of the Chen country.

However, although it was a misunderstanding, judging from his attitude towards the remnants of the Chen country who did not hesitate to kill him, he really did not have the idea of ​​colluding with these remnants, so he could relax his surveillance in this regard.

After Zhao Yan finished writing the letter, Chu Lan handed the family letter to Old Yin and asked him to take him back to Yudu.

Although it is possible to use Feijian to pass the book, Beihai is too far away from Yudu. Who knows what Feijian will encounter in the middle of passing the book, so it is better to use the method of sending it to be safer and faster.

After Yin Lao left, Yang Lao was the only one who was responsible for protecting (monitoring) Zhao Yan.

Zhao Yan said worriedly: "Miss, after Chen Guoyu knows my hostility to them, he will definitely want to get rid of me and then quickly. It is not safe to leave Yang Lao alone to protect me."

"They won't kill you." Chu Lan was speechless, this idiot thought there were too few people monitoring him.

Zhao Yan asked, "Why not?"

"Because..." Because the two who died were not the remnants of Chen Guo at all, but of course they couldn't say it.

Chu Lan was a little tired and made up lies: "Because the two people staring at you are dead, the rest of the Chen Kingdom naturally don't know that their deaths are related to you."

"My lady is really smart, and I have no regrets to have such a good wife. When I become the lord of the Great Yu, I will share the country with the lady!" Zhao Yan was relieved suddenly, and his brows were overjoyed.

Chu Lan sneered in her heart, this fool even learned to buy people's hearts, it's ridiculous, sharing the country?

Why does Miss Ben want to share it with you rubbish?

Although he was dismissive in his heart, Chu Lan remained calm on the surface: "Let's talk about it after winning the test."

Every time she faces Zhao Yan, a self-righteous idiot, she always finds a sense of superiority in IQ.

It's not that he's too stupid.

But he is too smart.

Then Chu Lan started chasing people: "I still have to deal with government affairs, you can go first if you have nothing to do."

"It's hard work, lady." Zhao Yan took Yang Lao and Xiao Guizi away, and as soon as he went out, he couldn't wait to say: "Go to Baihualou, choose the oiran tonight."

Hearing this faintly, Chu Lan showed sarcasm.

This idiot is just a little bit shrewd.

But isn't that what you value?

The future is also easy to fiddle with and control.

Imagining that in the near future, she will be under the curtain of the government, and a smile blooms on Chu Lan's face.

She will become the most powerful woman in Chi Xiaotian.

none of them!

Then she started to handle official business with great energy, and she must help King Luo manage Xiayang County!

Free tool people are addicted to work and cannot extricate themselves.

After Zhao Yan came to Baihualou, he still nodded his head card and fragrant, and hugged her into the private room to chat with me.

"The two people who followed me have already been removed by me with the help of the Chu family." Zhao Yan said through voice transmission.

Chen Lin in his arms was excited: "His Royal Highness is really strategizing and quick-witted. It is the blessing of my country Chen to be able to save two immortals so easily."

"Who is coming to Beihai this time?" Zhao Yan asked, thinking that this woman's body was the soul of another woman, it was inexplicably a little irritating.

The strength in his hands subconsciously increased a little.

"Hmm~"

Chen Lin snorted, blushing, biting her red lips and saying, "It's the general who came in person."

Zhao Yan has memories of this person in his mind.

Now the remnants of the Chen State are led by the former general of the Chen State and today's most wanted criminal, Chen An.

Chen An has a story with Gu Yi, his mother, Concubine Liang. He was Concubine Liang's dog licking dog, but in the end, Concubine Liang married Gu Zhen for the sake of Chen Guo.

Unexpectedly, Gu Zhen still destroyed Chen Guo.

Concubine Liang committed suicide.

So Gu Zhen hated Chen An for taking his wife and destroying the country. No wonder Chen Guo has been destroyed for more than 20 years. This guy still brought a group of people against Gu Zhen.

As the former general of the Chen State, Chen An is also well-known in Chixiao, and has the cultivation of the late immortal.

This time he came in person.

No wonder the watchers who were not even discovered by the yin and yang elders were discovered by these Chen Guo remnants.

"I didn't expect that it was the general who came in person. How lucky is this king." Zhao Yan was moved, and then asked, "Now who is left of Chen Guozhong, and how many people with lofty ideals are there."

He wants to know how strong this force is.

"There are also General Xiaoqi, General Zhendong, Marquis Changlin..." Chen Lin said a large number of people came out.

Zhao Yan was very excited to hear that there were one heaven immortal, three earth immortals, two human immortals, as well as thousands of gods, Yuan Ying, and Jindan cultivators. If this power was used by him, he would be stronger than any prince.

No wonder several princes and ministers in the court were so afraid of him colluding with the rest of the Chen country.

This can also see how powerful the Chen country was in the past, and there are still so many strong people left after the country is destroyed.

Of course, this also shows the strength of the Yu country, and even such a strong Chen country can be destroyed by Gu Zhen.

With this power, after he ascends the throne, he can completely use it to get rid of the Chu family's control and attack the Chu family.

Just because Gu Yi is the son of Chen An's former goddess, he will serve him faithfully.

There are too many of this kind of dog licking in TV dramas and novels. Usually, it is the second male lead, and Gu Zhen is the protagonist.

Zhao Yan found himself a puppet of chicken feathers.

He wants to be the real Emperor of Yu Kingdom!

Then empty all the treasures of the Yu Kingdom!

"Your Highness, you pinch me~"

Chen Lin couldn't bear it any longer and said in a low voice.

"I'm sorry, I'll blow it for you." Only then did Zhao Yan realize that he was too excited and tried too hard.

Chen Lin: "..."

"Go back and tell the general, wait for the time, you don't need to do anything now, and when the time is right, I will go to see him." Zhao Yan said.

Now everything has the Chu family to help him work hard.

There is no need for Chen An and the others to intervene.

Just get in touch with them.

"Yes, Your Highness."

………………

Beihai Prefecture, Huayang County.

Dai Wang Guchen is listening to the reports of his subordinates.

"His Royal Highness, today the enshrinement of the Chu family in Xiayang County killed two immortals. They called them the remnants of the Chen country, but they knew those two people. They were clearly two officials of the Ministry of War." A young man said respectfully.

Gu Chen waved his hand to signal him to go down, and then said coldly, "The Chu family really doesn't leave any room."

He has always regarded Chu Lan as forbidden, because he has a very good relationship with Chu Lan since he was a child.

So he was the one who hated Gu Yi the most.

"Fifth brother, don't think about it. The Chu family will only support the ninth brother no matter what. If you never forget about Chu Lan, you can only hope to become the final winner." King Yong Gu Zhong below said.

He is the governor of Ningyang County, but he doesn't want to fight for the throne, but supports Gu Chen, so he handed it all over to his subordinates and stayed in Huayang County for a long time.

He is not interested in what Ningyang County develops, it is nothing more than a few more muddy legs.

Gu Chen's face was gloomy and uncertain: "If I really do what you said, my conscience will be uneasy, and if I get Lao Jiu out of the game, it's not for the boss and them to take advantage of it, I think it's better to let them join in. , let's get Lao Jiu out together."

"The fifth brother is confused! How can this kind of thing connect the big brother and the others? If they know about it and don't agree to participate, should we use this good method or not? If we use it, they will definitely inform, and if we don't use it, such a good attention will be wasted. ." Gu Zhong reacted greatly when he heard this, and stood up directly.

From Gu Zhong's point of view, among the brothers, the most threatening now is Lao Jiu Gu Yi, because Prime Minister Chu Xiong's power is too strong in the court.

So get him out of the game first.

To this end, he made a suggestion, that is, secretly contact the North Kraken King, promise and make a lot of money, let the North Kraken continue to attack Xiayang County, so that Xiayang County cannot develop, and Lao Jiu will be out of the game.

But Gu Liang was afraid that the matter of collusion with aliens would be exposed. He couldn't afford the responsibility, so he never dared to do it. Instead, he wanted to pull a few more people to do it together and share the responsibility.

Gu Chen thought of Chu Lan's delicate face.

Finally gritted his teeth: "It's done! Fighting for the throne is a fight for life, success or failure is here. As long as you can persuade the North Sea Monster King, you can not only use him to deal with the old nine, but also against the boss and the others. It is worth the risk."

Gu Yi used to be just one of his sidekicks. In order to avoid being bullied, he could only please him.

He couldn't bear the thought of such a person, who now wants to hold the woman he likes under his body, and even ride on his head!

"That's right, fifth brother, as the so-called non-toxic and not a husband, and after the fight in Xiayang County, you can go to support and show your demeanor as a brother." Gu Zhong showed a satisfied smile.

He had been complacent about the idea of ​​his own.

As for the North Sea Monster King, he just wants Beihai Prefecture, and if it's a big deal, just give it to him.

Anyway, Dayu's territory is boundless, and there is no shortage of such a remote place.

The Demon King of the North Sea, in the middle stage of Heavenly Immortal, is the strongest among the many demon kings in the North Sea, with millions of demon soldiers.

Beihai Prefecture was originally occupied by the North Sea Monster King, but it was later occupied by Dayu and driven into the sea.

The North Sea Monster King has always wanted to retake Beihai Prefecture.

Gu Chen felt that as long as he gave him a lot of immortal crystals first, and then promised to give him Beihaizhou when he became emperor, he would definitely help him.

In order to show sincerity, he wants to talk in person.

And the sooner the better, right now!

A few days later, Yudu.

Gu Zhen looked at the information in his hand, with a smile on his face: "This old ninth, once you see through him that he is acting stupid, you will know how smart he is."

When speaking, he handed it to Li Daban.

"Congratulations, Your Majesty, His Majesty, His Royal Highness King Luo is smart and alert, more able to bear humiliation and burden, and will surely be able to follow your will to let Dayu Yongzhen Chixiao."

The content of the intelligence was exactly what happened when the two elders of Yin and Yang killed the two immortals staring at Zhao Yan.

It just happened not long ago, and Gu Zhen, who was hundreds of thousands of miles away, got the news now.

It can be seen that he has already made arrangements there.

After all, he really wanted to examine his nine sons at the beginning, so he naturally had to set up eyeliner in advance, and it was impossible to wait until the end of the year to directly examine the results.

So what's going on over there.

He will know as soon as possible.

Because his initial idea was to see the performance of several sons in the process of governing the county.

It was only later that he found out that Lao Jiu was pretending to be stupid, so he changed his mind and decided that Lao Jiu was the future successor.

Gu Zhen's face sank again: "Some people in the court should indeed warn you, even the prince dares to spy on himself, they are trying to rebel."

"When the documents from Xiayang County are delivered, you will immediately issue a decree to reward the two elders of Yin and Yang."

If you don't check it directly, you will conclude the identities of the two Chen Guo's remnants. This is a warning.

Those who are restless in the DPRK will naturally understand.

If they don't understand, Gu Zhen will teach them to understand.

"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Dafan responded.

At this moment, another man in black appeared in the hall: "Your Majesty, information from Huayang County."

The man in black knelt down on one knee and offered his hands.

As soon as Gu Zhen grabbed it, he flew into his hand.

After reading it, he suddenly became furious, and slapped the table with his palm: "What does this idiot want to do!"

Li Daban was taken aback, he didn't even remember how many years Gu Zhen had not been so angry.

"You bastard!" Gu Zhen looked cold.

Li Dafan glanced carefully, his body suddenly stiffened, and even his breathing was a beat slower.

No wonder His Majesty is so angry.

Your Royal Highness is really confused!

The information is the king's private meeting with the North Siren King.

At this juncture, Dai Wang's private meeting with the North Sea Monster King, it is easy to make people think of what he is going to do.

"Your Majesty, calm down, His Royal Highness may not have done anything wrong," Li Dafan comforted.

Gu Zhen sneered: "Then he dignified Prince Dayu to privately meet the demon king to order seafood?"

Beihai is rich in seafood.

Although Gu Zhen told a cold joke, Li Dafan felt that it was not funny at all, and was a little scared.

Because Gu Zhen had a murderous heart.

Of course he couldn't kill his own son.

That is definitely wanting to kill the North Sea Monster King.

If the North Sea Monster King did not agree, it would be fine. If he agreed, he would definitely go ashore, and if he dared to go ashore, he would die.

"Your Majesty, do you want the recruitment department to discuss matters?" In Li Dafan's view, this is a good opportunity to defeat the North Sea Monster King in one go, and Gu Zhen obviously won't let it go.

Gu Zhen said coldly: "No need, so as not to leak the wind, I and the Prime Minister will go there in person."

Although he is suppressing Chu Xiong, it does not prevent him from thinking that Chu Xiong is a loyal minister. The reason why he suppresses the Chu family is just doing what the emperor should do.

And the reason why Chu Xiong resisted him was just doing what he should do as a family head.

The two just stand in different positions.

Their personal relationship is very good.

And they are tough on external issues.

………………

A month later, Xiayang County.

There are still six months left until the New Year.

The impact of the last Sea-Monster Rebellion had completely passed under Chu Lan's active management.

Now Xiayang County has returned to its former prosperity, and the five thousand county soldiers have all been replenished.

Everything seems to be booming.

Yang Lao is no longer monitoring Zhao Yan.

Because Chu Lan was completely relieved, in her opinion, it was impossible for Gu Yi to collude with Chen Guoyu.

If Chen Guo Yu Xie really went to find him.

I'm afraid he will report it instead.

Moreover, during this period of time, there was no trace of Chen State's remnants in Xiayang County. Perhaps Gu Yi's influence on Chen State's remnants was not as severe as they thought.

After all, Gu Yi is the blood of the Gu family after all.

So she lifted Zhao Yan's surveillance.

Because of his patience, Zhao Yan finally got the opportunity to meet Chen An, the general of the Chen country.

On this day, he went to Baihualou to spend on time as always, just like clocking in at work.

In other words, this is called stimulating economic circulation.

In the private room he still lit fragrance.

Baihualou's cognition of Zhao Yan is very complicated.

Say he doesn't bother, he always visits brothels.

It can be said that he is diligent, he is old and fragrant.

"Go and make arrangements, the solitary king can go to see the generals in the afternoon." Zhao Yan said to Chen Lin.

Chen Lin nodded: "Slave obeys."

The two play each other on a daily basis.

In the afternoon, in a house in Haiyuan County.

Zhao Yan met Chen An, the general of the Chen State.

On the surface, he looked like a man in his thirties, elegant and easy-going, like a scholar.

Chen An was also looking at him, his eyes were confused, and he said madly: "Like, you are too similar to your mother."

"Uncle Chen." Zhao Yan shouted respectfully.

In fact, it's a bit chilly. Chen An shouldn't want to get Gu Yi just because he didn't get Gu Yi's mother?

Do you want to donate chrysanthemums?

It's not his body anyway.

But you will feel the pain...

No, maybe it's pleasure?

Grass, I am thinking about some ghosts.

Chen An said, "You have suffered all these years."

"My nephew is not suffering, but Uncle Chen and you are suffering in hiding." Zhao Yan was already full of tears.

Cry when you need to cry, laugh when you need to laugh.

This is the basic quality of an actor.

Now those little fresh meats are undoubtedly no match for Zhao Yan, no, to be precise, their acting skills can't even match the actors of island action movies.

At least the action movie actors are not embarrassed.

Chen An smiled slightly: "It's all worth it. As long as the country can be restored, the hardships are worth it."

"Uncle Chen."

"Um?"

"I don't want to go back to the country."

"Shu!" Chen An's expression became cold.

In an instant, Zhao Yan's hair exploded.

"What did you say?" Chen An asked coldly.

Under the pressure of the other party, Zhao Yanqiang said word by word: "I said... I don't want to return to the country."

Chen An looked at him, silent for a long time, and then spit out two words: "Reason."

[Author's digression]: Ask for a silver ticket!
