One month later, it is very difficult to rely on her and Lin Jingzhe alone, so they need Zhou Xian's help.

Although Zhou Xian was just an idle prince, there was not much that could help them.

But for Zhou Xuan and the others, it is always good to add one more point.

. . . . . .

Ten days later.

"Grandpa, what did the second brother's letter say?"

In the western border barracks, Chu Batian held a letter in his hand and was watching attentively.

While holding a huge Stone-lock, Wang Ping threw the Stone-lock in his hand to the ground, and then walked to the side of Chu Batian.

He looked at the letter in Chu Batian's hand curiously, and asked curiously.

Originally, when he was just learning to walk, Wang De began to teach him to write and recognize words.

At first, Wang Ping could still recognize some things, but afterwards, suddenly he couldn't remember things.

From that time on, the words Wang Pingyuan had remembered were slowly forgotten by him.

By now, Wang Ping didn't recognize a word except for himself and his second brother's name.

"An'er said, let you exercise in the barracks."

"After the matter on his side is over, he will come to see you."

Chu Batian threw the letter in his hand into the charcoal basin on one side. After a while, the letter was completely burned into black fly ash.

Seeing Wang Ping's look of expectation, Chu Batian smiled and answered Wang Ping's question: "So, Ping'er, go ahead and lift the Stone-lock."

"Um."

"I'm going now."

Hearing Lin Jingzhe was going to see him, Wang Ping grabbed the heavy Stone-lock he had just thrown on the ground.

Holding the Stone-lock, Wang Ping quickly ran out of the Central Army's account.

"It would be great if the old man was twenty years younger."

When Wang Ping walked away, the smile on Chu Batian's face began to slowly disappear.

His brows frowned soon.

He lied to Wang Ping just now, although the letter sent by Lin Jingzhe also mentioned Wang Ping.

But it's another matter.

Regarding the elimination of officials within the imperial court, Lin Jingzhe wrote to him in order to let Chu Batian cooperate and assist him at critical times.

"I hope it goes well this time."

While thinking about Lin Jingzhe's action plan, Chu Batian became a little worried.

But despite his worries, he didn't shrink back or hesitate. At the first sight of Lin Jingzhe's plan, he made a decision and started to prepare and arrange as Lin Jingzhe said.

. . . . . .

"The atmosphere in the courtroom is a bit strange today."

Wang De slowly walked into the yard from outside the door.

Looking at Chu Xianglan, who was cleaning the fallen leaves in the yard, he took off his own official uniform and handed it to Chu Xianglan, while telling Chu Xianglan about what he had seen and heard in the courtroom today: "Many of them don’t look straight. My official actually took the initiative to greet me today."

"I always feel that their eyes look a little weird when they look at me."

After helping her husband hang up the clothes, Chu Xianglan gave Wang De, who was sweating profusely, a glass of water.

Taking a fan and fanning Wang De, Chu Xianglan talked to Wang De: "I heard that the third prince was poisoned to death."

"You said those people say hello to you, will it have anything to do with this matter?"

After taking a sip of tea, Wang De couldn't help but shine upon hearing his wife's words, and said amusedly: "Is it possible that those guys have something to do with the death of the three princes?"

After spending a few days in the Ministry of War, Wang De actually regretted it a bit.

Compared to the previous Hanlin Academy, as long as he thinks about how to teach the royal family's studies well every day, when the emperor issues the edict, he helps write the edict, and his day's work can be completely declared over.

But in the Ministry of War, he not only has to deal with a lot of things, but also always beware of various traps set by his own colleagues.

Just two days after taking office, Wang De personally saw a small military officer who had offended a person in charge, and because he accidentally said a wrong sentence, he was twisted into the jail.

It is said that afterwards, evidence of rebellion was found in the little official's house.

Wang De wanted to help the little official, but when he finally checked the dossier, he found that there were all material evidence and personal evidence.

Even in the end, he himself admitted the fact that he was rebelling when he first started to call for grievances.

Watching this extremely dark scene, Wang De couldn't help being exhausted physically and mentally.

"I want to resign."

Sitting in the chair, Wang De thought for a while, and then told Chu Xianglan his own ideas.

"Then resign and come back."

"There is no shortage of clothing and drinking at home now. It is also good for you to come back and be a private school teacher."

Chu Xianglan then fanned Wang De and nodded slightly. Recently, she had always heard that her husband was awakened by a nightmare, and had long wanted Wang De to come back for training, but Wang De has never let go.

Now that Wang De herself offered to come back, she was naturally very happy in her heart.

Fanning her husband, Chu Xianglan rarely wore a gentle smile on her face: "It's better than being fearful every day. I don't expect you to be so prestigious. It's better for the family to be safe."

"Suddenly, I feel a little bit flattered."

Wang De nodded slightly, he decided to wait for his own son to come back, and he discussed with Lin Jingzhe about resigning.

Hearing what Chu Xianglan said, Wang De couldn't help but think of Wang Ping, the son who was sent out to Chu Anbang as his stepson.

Remember the past.

When both Wang Ping and Wang An were young, even though their family was not very rich at that time, they even rushed to eat.

But every day when I came back from the Hanlin Academy, I watched my two sons sitting on the threshold waiting for me to come back.

Wang De felt extremely happy and satisfied.

"An'er told me."

"At the end of the year, I will pick up Ping'er."

Chu Xianglan looked at the gesture of her husband's young daughter, and she couldn't help laughing.

Stopping the folding fan in her hand, Chu Xianglan suddenly remembered what her second child had said to herself: "At that time, our family will never be separated again."

"The old man will definitely not agree."

Hearing what his wife said, Wang De was first overjoyed, and then smiled bitterly. He knew his father-in-law very well.

Never suffer.

"An'er said, leave this to him."

. . . . . .

"Master, our people have gathered to Yedu one after another."

"General Li and their army have already started, and they can reach the outer city before the celebration begins."

In front of Zhou Yan, a middle-aged man dressed as an old farmer knelt on one knee and reported the news to him.

Over the years, Zhou Yan secretly formed own forces in various parts of the Great Zhou, in order to one day ascend to the big position. .
