When this voice sounded, Zhou An could feel a pressure coming towards his face.

In the yard in front of the royal study, there were originally some flowers and plants that were blooming proudly in the sunshine. But when these two simple words came out, the flowers and plants that were in full bloom were also silenced by the voice. .

Zhou An is standing at the front and can feel it most directly.

The pressure at this moment came like a mountain, suffocating.

But he was not afraid. Instead, he straightened his back and put his hands behind his back.

After a while, the stress completely disappeared, as if it had never been there.

The entire courtyard was so quiet that even if there was a gust of wind, you could easily feel it.

At this time, Zhou An pushed open the door and entered the imperial study.

The imperial study room of Da Qi is completely different from the other two countries in terms of decoration and furnishings.

At this time, Emperor Fengteng of Da Qi was sitting in front of the huge desk, as motionless as a giant mountain.

When Zhou An walked in, Emperor Fengteng cast his gaze over and scanned Zhou An up and down, as if he wanted to give Zhou An a thorough look.

Zhou An narrowed his eyes, then raised his hands and said.

"Zhou An, the Sijing of Huaixi Capital of the Great Chu State, has met Your Majesty."

There are still some etiquette that should be in place, otherwise if word spreads, it will be said that Zhou An has lost his etiquette in other countries.

But Zhou An did not perform any grand ceremony of kneeling three times and kowtowing nine times, because there was an unspoken rule that was spread in various countries.

——What is etiquette in your own country is what etiquette is in other countries.

The Great Chu State does not like to kneel down, so here, Zhou An just handed over.

Emperor Feng Teng raised his eyes slightly, and his eyes were as calm as the calm sea. No waves could make him change his mood.

He pointed lightly to a place not far ahead and said slowly: "Sit down, there is tea on the table, pour it and drink it yourself."

Zhou An didn't hesitate, nor did he feel restrained. He just sat in his seat, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a sip.

Afterwards, he put down his teacup and said bluntly: "Your Majesty asked me to come here. What can I discuss?"

Now that we're here, we won't do any awkward things and just talk about the topic directly, which is better than anything else.

When Zhou An asked this question, Emperor Feng Teng raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a smile.

"The Great Chu Kingdom seems to be treating you very well."

Zhou An nodded: "It's indeed very good. Not only His Majesty Emperor Xingwu, but also Eunuch Wei and others are also very kind to me."

There is no need to hide some things. After all, Eunuch Wei's attitude towards him has already been spread throughout the world.

Some people say that Zhou An's background in the Great Chu Kingdom is as high as a mountain. This sentence is not wrong at all.

"I will stop talking nonsense with you. I will give you a high official and a generous salary, and I will give you everything you want."

Emperor Feng Teng tapped the table with his fingers, as if thinking about his next words.

After he paused for a moment, he slowly said: "As long as you want it, the Daqi State can afford it. The Daqi State will use all its resources to give you rights, wealth, beauties, or other things. With just one sentence, he is the most powerful person in the Qi Kingdom."

"And for all this, you only need to leave Da Chu State and declare to join our Da Qi State. You don't have to consider the attitude of Da Chu State. Poaching people is common everywhere, how about it?"

Hearing this, Zhou An finally knew what was going on when the other party called him over.

After thinking for a moment, he shook his head and said: "I appreciate your majesty's love, but the Great Chu Country treats me very well, so I will definitely not be able to leave the Great Chu Country."

He thought to himself that he thought there was something else going on, but it turned out to be just to recruit him.

You don’t even have to think about it.

It's a very simple truth. Besides himself, Eunuch Wei is also extremely important to him.

There are even Yu Hang and Ye Shuang, who are also from the Chu Kingdom.

No matter what the situation was, it was impossible for him to leave Da Chu Kingdom.

What's more, regardless of Emperor Fengteng recruiting him, in fact, Emperor Fengteng had nothing to do with what he encountered in Da Qi before this.

Without Emperor Fengteng's hint, how could the leader of Zongxing send a clone in, and even gather thousands of Zongxing members, and even Ye Daomen and Yefomen could deal with him smoothly without any hindrance.

It is simply impossible to say that these things were not hinted by Emperor Fengteng.

Zhou An knew this very well, so his impression of Emperor Feng Teng in front of him almost took a turn for the worse.

And seeing the living conditions of the people, it is even more impossible for Zhou An to be in Da Qi.

Emperor Fengteng didn't seem surprised by Zhou An's answer. He nodded and said, "I know that if you say these things, the chance of you agreeing is very slim. Okay, then you can go down first. I I just want to say these few words to you.”

Zhou An frowned, thinking that it was just a simple solicitation, which was a bit too strange.

But that's all. The golden gossip in front of him was still in good condition, so Zhou An didn't say any more.

"Then I will resign." Zhou An cupped his hands and turned and left the imperial study without waiting for Emperor Fengteng to reply.

After Zhou An left, the imperial study fell into silence again.

Emperor Fengteng stood up and walked back and forth in the imperial study.

The aura on his body was like a swaying black shadow or like a sea rolled by a strong wind, making people feel great pressure.

After a long time, Emperor Fengteng stopped, and the overwhelming momentum gradually subsided.

Emperor Feng Teng sighed with a hint of regret: "As expected. Others are unreliable, so I still have to take action myself. Zhou An, I gave you a chance, but you didn't want it. In this case, don't blame me for being cruel. ”

In this imperial study room, Emperor Fengteng's voice was like ice, making people's skin crawl.

And the murderous aura was constantly rippling in the imperial study room, like a wild beast that wanted to devour others, opening its bloody mouth full of fangs.

Today is the first day of entering the palace. Zhou An and others need to stay in the palace for a small night.

They would only enter the next day after the twenty All Saint Realm masters from the Great Qi Kingdom had finished selecting and left.

When Zhou An came to the other courtyard to rest, he meditated on the pot method for a while, and then began to think about what happened in the imperial study room today.

He always found it strange that Emperor Fengteng was not someone who could be dismissed with just a few words. He was the emperor of a country.

The most powerful person in the entire country.

One word can determine the rise and fall, life and death of countless people.

So Zhou An knew that there must be something wrong here.

But it is a pity that even with the divine calculation, there is still nothing wrong with it. I only know that it is a piece of gold, but I have no clue what will happen to it.

"Maybe he's holding a big one from me?" Zhou An thought to himself.

But he doesn't care too much about this matter now.

"When the time comes, there will be a guild gathering behind us, so the problem shouldn't be too big. The most important thing now is to completely improve your proficiency."

Thinking of this, Zhou An continued to bury his head and started to calm down.

Time gradually passed, and in a blink of an eye, night came.

Under the thin moonlight, the silver moonlight shines on the north side of the palace, where there is a calm lake. The lake is sprinkled by the moonlight and covered with a layer of silver frost.

In the reflection, it looks really good.

If a poet were here, he would surely be able to quote one or two eternal quatrains based on this scenery.

At this moment, there is a shielded space under the lake that was transplanted by Da Qi State with a lot of manpower and material resources.

This space blocks the surrounding water flow, as if there is an invisible barrier, and it is very large.

Under this barrier are buildings, hidden deep in the bottom of the lake.

At this time, in the largest building, a middle-aged man was sitting on a huge chair, reading a letter in his hand.

He read very slowly, as if he wanted to understand every word in the letter.

After he read it all, with a wave of his hand, the letter turned into a large piece of ashes and disappeared completely.

And as the letter turned into ashes, the middle-aged man once again aimed at the void in front of him and volleyed a little higher.

Not far away, a broken jade stone the size of a fist appeared in mid-air.

The middle-aged man waved slightly, and the broken jade was suspended in his palm, constantly emitting light.

He looked at the jade in his palm carefully, and after a long time, he held the broken jade in his hand.

The broken jade stone melted into his palm instantly, and then disappeared, as if it had never appeared before.

And when the jade disappeared, figures flashed one after another in this huge building complex, appearing in front of the middle-aged man.

"I have met His Majesty!"

Hundreds of people appeared in this huge building. They all knelt down, lowered their heads, and shouted in unison.

Everyone present has a powerful aura. If placed in the arena, they would be a boss-level figure of one party, enough to intimidate one party.

The middle-aged man put his hands on the armrests of the throne, looked around, and said slowly: "I called you here because I have important matters to discuss. Now Zhou An has arrived in Daqi State, and he has the title of Dayu Dynasty in his hands. Imperial jade seal."

When these words were spoken, the hundreds of strong men on the field all raised their heads with surprise in their eyes.

Many people even lowered their hands, revealing a cold murderous aura on their bodies, like a piece of unmelting ice.

The leader asked respectfully: "Your Majesty, what are your plans?"

"At the beginning, the late emperor was beaten to pieces by the Great Chu Kingdom, and only the incomplete corner of this jade seal remained."

The middle-aged man frowned and said slowly: "I am under all the pressure to lead everyone to re-establish the Gale Kingdom, but it is easier said than done."

"Even if we steal some of the national destiny of Da Chu State, we cannot develop it completely. That is to say, in Da Qi State, it needs someone to check and balance other countries, so it accepted me and everyone here, but we cannot be vassals of others. "

At this point, everyone present looked at each other and nodded, indicating that this was indeed the case.

Da Feng Kingdom was the former dynasty that was overthrown by Da Chu Kingdom.

And these people are the remnants of the previous dynasty.

Even if he was lucky enough to escape, it would be impossible to escape the encirclement and pursuit of the Chu Kingdom.

No matter how deep they hide, they will be hit like a violent storm.

But at that time, Da Qi suddenly took action, secretly rescued them, and hid them at the bottom of the lake in the palace, giving them a place to settle down.

As for why they did this, everyone present could understand. It was just that they wanted something that could check and balance the Great Chu Kingdom.

They understood it very well and knew that they were being used, but there was nothing they could do about it.

Because it is much better to be used than to be destroyed.

So they settled here temporarily.

The middle-aged man's name is Meng Yun. This surname is the national surname of Dafeng Kingdom, and he is the prince of Dafeng Kingdom who escaped in the first place.

His father, in order to send him out, paid a huge price, and even died on the spot under those circumstances, just to let him complete the great cause of restoring the country.

Only he knows how much pressure and humiliation he has suffered, and he has survived until now.

For example, now, I am living under someone else's roof, like a dog.

For the former crown prince of Dafeng Kingdom, Meng Yun felt ashamed.

Not long ago, this letter arrived, mentioning the jade seal of the Great Region Dynasty, which gave him a glimmer of hope for the restoration of the country.

Meng Yun patted the armrest of the throne, attracted everyone's attention, and said slowly: "I want to kill Zhou An and seize the jade seal of the Great Region Dynasty, but I don't want to do it openly."

After these words were spoken, the people present showed puzzled expressions.

None of them understood what Meng Yun meant.

If you want to kill but you can't do it openly, how should you kill?

Meng Yun looked around and continued: "If I take action openly, there are spies from other countries in the palace. If they see that it is me who takes action, I am afraid that the affairs of Da Qi will be exposed, and I will not be able to escape. So we have to find another way.”

Having said this, Meng Yun raised his right hand again.

On his right hand, the broken piece of jade loomed, finally floating in front of everyone.

This was the national destiny stolen from the Great Chu State, and it was also their weak hope.

This hope was so weak that they thought it was impossible.

But now, all the impossible will become possible.

"Tonight is a special night. I will work with you to communicate the broken national destiny, use the national destiny to connect the jade seals of the Great Region Dynasty, steal the jade seals, and finally establish a country here with a large amount of the remaining national destiny of the Great Region Dynasty."

Meng Yun's tone was extremely serious, and the surrounding atmosphere became solemn.

What is being discussed now is an extremely important matter. Only he knows how big a decision is required to make this decision.

The jade seal of the Great Region Dynasty is an ownerless thing and can be communicated through similar national fortunes.

But it also means that the national destiny of the Chu Kingdom in his hands will be completely assimilated.

The result of the assimilation is that he can control the jade seal of the great dynasty.

At the moment of taking control, he only had two choices.

The first is to disperse the fate of the country, and the second is to establish the country immediately.

If it's the first one, then he doesn't have to do this.

So, the only choice is the second one.

As for why he had to choose one of the two, it was because after he mastered the jade seal of the Great Domain Dynasty, it was no longer controllable by him.

Within a short period of time, if you don't make a decision, you will inevitably suffer serious backlash.

It was his decision to build the country on the spot.

This trip can only succeed, not fail.

If he fails, then the only path waiting for him is complete destruction.

"I also know very well what Emperor Fengteng wants to do. Emperor Fengteng just wants to take this opportunity to kill Zhou An. This is a deal. If I kill Zhou An, I can get the jade seal. And behind this deal , I can see clearly how big the risk is, but I have no choice, there is only this way, there is no other way. "

"If this opportunity is given up, then there will be no chance for me to overthrow the Great Chu Kingdom."

As Meng Yun said these words, everyone present fell silent, as if they were also making a decision.

These are all old ministers of the Gale Kingdom, and they all support Meng Yun to become the next emperor.

But when it comes to life and death, they also have the right to participate, which is why Meng Yun called them over.

After nearly half an hour, the silence was finally broken.

When the silence is broken, that is when the decision is made.

"Your Majesty, we will follow you to the death. As long as your Majesty makes a choice, we are willing to die," the leader said loudly.

The others remained silent and seemed to acquiesce to this sentence.

When Meng Yun heard this, he nodded, looked at the broken jade in his hand, and said slowly: "This is the moment."

After he finished saying this, he did not wait for anything, and circulated the Qi in his body to activate the broken jade in front of him.

When the jade was stirred, inch-by-inch cracks immediately appeared.

Cracks appeared, and the broken jade stone immediately turned into a pile of powder, forming a small ball, suspended above Meng Yun's palm.

Meng Yun took a deep breath and held the ball made of powder.

The ball immediately followed his palm and blended into his blood.

There were inch-by-inch cracks on his palm starting from the arm, and his face became extremely pale, as if he had suffered great pain and was trembling.

Meng Yun's eyes were covered with blood, which instantly covered his cheeks.

And his pupils turned golden, hiding a lot of the national destiny of the Great Chu Kingdom.

"start!"

Meng Yun glanced around with his golden eyes. His sun-like eyes saw the trace of national destiny contained in everyone present, and they were extracted from it and gathered on top of his head.

Finally, overhead, a golden cloud formed.

With Meng Yun's loud shout, the golden clouds rose into the sky, turned into a golden light that no one could see, and disappeared.

In the imperial study, Emperor Fengteng stood by the window, watching the golden light disappear, with the corners of his mouth raised slightly.

"In this way, Zhou An will die, and I will have one more ally, and the destruction of Da Chu and Da Yue will be just around the corner."

"With the strength of Da Qi, it will be easy to deal with the Gale Kingdom, and finally turn around and destroy the Barbarian Kingdom!"

Emperor Fengteng's eyes showed excitement, and his robes continued to flutter.

"After so many years, I may become the second great dynasty in the world and unify the entire world!"

He seemed to have seen the future, and the feeling of joy in his heart deepened.

In the other courtyard, Zhou An was cooking pottery to calm down the ritual.

Proficiency is slowly increasing.

Black Jade sat in the iron pot and shouted hoarsely.

As a qualified employee, Bai Yu is now as stable as an old dog and can be beaten by Zhou An anytime and anywhere.

Even though he was sitting in the iron pot, Black Jade still held the chair in his hands, looking like he couldn't bear to part with it at all.

After fussing for a while, Zhou An put the black jade down, ready to take a drink of water and take a rest before continuing to fuss.

But at this moment, Zhou An felt something was wrong.

Something was shaking slightly on his chest.

Zhou An immediately looked down and found that the pink money bag shaking on his chest was there.

"Something's wrong!"

Zhou An immediately put away the iron pot and finally opened the pink money bag.

Only then did he realize that what was shaking inside the pink purse was the jade seal of the Great Region Dynasty.

At this time, an abnormality suddenly occurred, and this happened not long after meeting Emperor Feng Teng. Zhou An knew that there must be a demon when things went abnormal.

It is very likely that he has a direct connection with Emperor Fengteng.

Without saying a word, he closed the pink money bag.

Although this could not stop the vibration of the Jade Seal of the Great Domain Dynasty, he immediately circulated the Qi in his body and began to use the Divine Calculation of Heavenly Works to make calculations based on this incident.

As a result, the original piece of gold in front of him turned into a mass of black.

Zhou An looked confused and solemn.

He couldn't understand why a good fortune turned into a bad luck.

But after thinking carefully, he came to a conclusion.

"Maybe before I left, those people related to the Jade Seal of the Great Region Dynasty did not make a decision, and when the decision was made, it became a bad omen."

Zhou An came to this conclusion.

He thinks this conclusion should be correct.

But now is not the time to continue to push it further, but to solve this problem.

Zhou An tried to use the attribute of general trend to reverse good or bad luck.

Only a trace of gold was revealed in this black, which can only be said to be still very ominous.

With his calculation this time, a lot of time also passed away, and the shaking of the pink money bag became more and more vigorous.

Zhou An didn't know what strange move the other party had used, but if he didn't solve it, something extremely dangerous might be waiting for him.

He was lost in thought.

"Those who can communicate with the jade seals of the great dynasty must definitely use the luck of the country to communicate. Emperor Fengteng will not do anything, and neither will the emperors of other countries."

"Because this will do more harm than good to them. In that case, let others communicate the fate of the country."

"But being able to communicate out of thin air, not even the Wild Dao Sect and the Wild Buddha Sect can do it, unless there is something similar."

"Wait! I think I know who the similar thing is, it's someone from the previous dynasty!"

Nowadays, Zhou An already has a wealth of knowledge, and he only needs a simple analysis to know who is behind the scenes.

Zhou An looked at the jade seal of the Great Region Dynasty in front of him, and he already had a solution.

In front of his eyes, as he launched this plan, the terrifying black turned into a golden color.

The corners of Zhou An's mouth raised slightly: "You never expected that I have a big backer in the psychic space."

After he finished saying this, he circulated the Qi in his body.

Then the scenery in front of him began to become blurry, and he was heading towards the psychic space.
