Fish swimming around the world

Zeng Chun nodded and said, "That's all I can think of, but...it's still worrying."

Jiang Fan said: "Is there no clue mentioned in the book?"

Zeng Chun shook his head: "I didn't say anything clearly. I just said that I would look for some traces, but...

His eyes were a little strange: "There is a sentence in the letter, which has something to do with the prince..."

Jiang Fan was surprised and said: "With me? No way, I only have a one-time relationship with the boss."

Zeng Chun narrowed his eyes and looked at him: "Indeed, it should be just a one-time relationship... Therefore, I am also puzzled. My father said in the book that he asked me to give the second half of the booklet to the prince."

Jiang Fan's heart moved. At the beginning, I asked Wang Xuanji to release the second half to the world, but that guy was too thoughtful and never did it. Unexpectedly, Zeng Chun actually brought it up.

"What is the second half of the booklet?" Jiang Fan seemed confused.

Zeng Chun smiled: "Why do you pretend to be confused, Your Majesty? It's the pamphlet that was circulated in Paradise City..."

Jiang Fan quickly waved his hand: "These are just rumors fabricated by boring people to make a little money. This kind of thing cannot be taken seriously and we cannot afford it."

Zeng Chun laughed loudly: "Yes, yes, it is a joke of common people, but it cannot be taken seriously, but it is just a far-fetched interpretation."

Jiang Fan seemed to be relieved: "Yes, yes, Mr. Zeng knows it clearly. I think the elder just wants to joke with the younger generation."

"That's right, that's right. My father has always been very naughty."

Zeng Chun said with a smile: But... My father asked me to do it for the son of man. No, I brought it to the prince. "

As he spoke, he reached into his arms and actually took out a pamphlet.

"This is the second half, please keep it, Your Majesty."

Jiang Fan took it, flipped through it casually, and shook his head: "It's really outrageous. I don't know who could be so boring."

Zeng Chun said: "The prince is famous all over the world, and everything related to the prince is very interesting. If you make this up, you will definitely be able to sell it for a lot of money."

Jiang Fan laughed loudly: "It's really a mess, so I'll take the time to take a look at it for fun. However, Mr. Zeng will report to the royal family on my behalf. I don't mean any offense at all, and this matter has nothing to do with me." The king has nothing to do with it.”

"That's right, that's right. How can people in the royal family be so ignorant? Your Majesty has seen it before and just laughed it off. On the other hand, His Highness the Crown Prince misses people when he sees things. He is already ill and misses his only heir more and more. In the past two years, his body has been weakened. Things are getting worse..."

He said with emotion.

Jiang Fan also expressed sympathy: "His Royal Highness, the love between father and son is unavoidable. I hope you will give me some comfort."

Zeng Chun nodded, with a tone of regret: "His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is extremely talented. He should have taken over the throne and rule the world long ago. However, he is too ill to achieve great success. He is really jealous of his talents."

Jiang Fan nodded sadly: "What I'm saying is that I heard that His Majesty the Human Emperor is also very worried about this matter."

"Yes, the royal family is very thin. Your Majesty only has two sons and two daughters. Unfortunately, the Second Highness has only one daughter. His Highness has only one son, but he died young. The inheritance of the royal family is really worrying now. How can we not make people sigh. Your Majesty is very worried. , it is inevitable..."

Jiang Fan hesitated and said, "I shouldn't say something. His Royal Highness is seriously ill. Since His Highness can have a daughter, why don't you take more concubines and try to give birth to more dragons?"

Zeng Chun shook his head: "The inheritance of the Great Zhou Dynasty has always attached great importance to etiquette. Although His Highness is still alive, although he is in poor health, he must first consider whether he can continue his descendants. The Second Highness does not want to cause criticism, so he has not had children for a long time."

Jiang Fan said: "I see, your two highnesses are very polite and courteous."

"That's natural. The Great Zhou Dynasty governed the country with etiquette. The word etiquette has lasted for nine hundred years, and we will never dare to violate it."

Jiang Fan nodded repeatedly: "The great Zhou Dynasty practiced etiquette all over the world, so our Chinese nation is called a country of etiquette."

Zeng Chun was also quite proud: "That's true, but the world is very rude nowadays."

Jiang Fan also nodded: "Who says it's not the case? We've been fighting all day long and it's become a mess. I don't know when we will be able to return to our prosperous times."

Zeng Chun looked at him with deep meaning: "Oh? It seems that the prince also hopes for peace in the world."

"That's natural." Jiang Fan said seriously: "The world is peaceful and the world is prosperous. Who doesn't want that?"

Zeng Chun sighed: "It's a pity that you and I both know... This is privately said. It's difficult. The world is divided into five parts, and everyone is doing their own thing. The influence of the imperial court is getting worse every day."

Jiang Fan also looked heavy: "Yes, I wonder if the imperial court has any good ideas?"

Zeng Chun smiled bitterly and said: "At least two things are needed. One is a young and powerful Ming Lord, and the other is the service of the world's elite."

Jiang Fan deeply agreed: "Master Zeng has a great opinion."

Zeng Chun said: "This Ming Lord... is not for us to discuss, but this talented person... is your prince willing to serve the Great Zhou Zhengtong?"

Jiang Fan said sternly: "Master Zeng, what are you talking about? All people in the world must serve our emperor as a matter of course. Jiang Fan is no exception!"

"Oh? Your Majesty, are you speaking from your heart?"

Jiang Fan said: "Loyalty and filial piety are all righteousness, how can we talk nonsense?"

Zeng Chun looked at him deeply, then suddenly leaned forward and whispered: "In that case, Your Majesty...why don't you obey the imperial edict?"

Jiang Fan showed a troubled expression: "I have read this imperial edict. I forgive you for talking too much. Is this imperial edict written in your majesty's handwriting?"

Zeng Chun hesitated and said: "To be honest, it is written in the Grand Master's handwriting. But with His Majesty's Jade Seal and Dragon Seal, this cannot be faked."

Jiang Fan quickly said: "I don't mean this. Who dares to falsify the Imperial Edict? What I mean is... the edict says that I will be granted the title of King of the West of the Kingdom, but I don't know where this fiefdom... is?"

Zeng Chun's eyes narrowed, he looked at him for a moment, and then said slowly: "Your Majesty, you shouldn't ask this question."

Jiang Fan was stunned: "Why? Shouldn't the king have a fief?"

Zeng Chun said: "Does the prince really not know, or is he just pretending to be confused?"

Jiang Fan said unhappily: "Sir Zeng's words are wrong. You only ask when you don't know. How can there be any reason to ask knowingly?"

Zeng Chun pondered for a moment and then said, "Does Your Majesty know the meaning of Zhen Guo Xi Tian Wang?"

Jiang Fan shook his head: "I am young, please help me clarify my doubts."

Zeng Chun said slowly: "The Great Zhou established the country, divided the world, and established the four princes of the East, West, South, and North as marquises. They were called Dongbohou, Xibohou, Nanbohou, and Beibohou. They were to guard the country of the Great Zhou Dynasty. At the beginning, there were no fiefdoms. , just lead the four armies to guard the four directions..."

He said with a serious face: "The world is in chaos. In order to stabilize the country, Your Majesty conferred the title of king on the four great princes and called them the kings of the country. At the same time, he also granted fiefdoms. If we look at it today, it is roughly the Western Qin Dynasty. , the land of Eastern Jin, Southern Chu, and Northern Wei..."

Jiang Fan seemed to be shocked: "This... As your Excellency said, the King of Zhenxi is where the Qin State is. How can this be done? The Qin State already has a monarch, there are no two days in the sky, and there are no two kings in the country. Isn't this true? conflict?"
