King Zhen and King Yong also came to Shu.

These two former emperors and grandsons, who were used to show the kindness of the pseudo-emperor and his son, were not in a good situation in Shu.

Especially after King Qin revealed his identity, the treatment of the two people almost took a sharp turn for the worse.

But the strange thing is that since then, no one has come to cause trouble.

You must know that even when they were living in Chang'an, those petty officials and even evil young men dared to come to extort money. If they were not given, they would make noises and say that they were plotting to rebel. They had no choice but to spend money to eliminate the disaster.

The two brothers live next to each other, they are just two ordinary houses.

The place is small, but there are quite a lot of people including their wives, children, and children, so they have no choice but to squeeze into one room.

As for money...the two of them have some in their hands, but they dare not spend it randomly.

The weather is cold, the house is draughty, the children at home are crying, the women are complaining, and they are making endless noises.

King Zhen stood under the eaves, looking outside with his hands behind his hands, a gloomy look on his eyebrows.

"Your Majesty, Minister Zheng is here."

"oh!"

Zheng Yuandong came in quietly through the back door, and even dressed up in disguise.

"Now that I don't even have a study room, I'm neglecting you."

The two met outside King Jeong's bedroom.

"The king has suffered."

Zheng Yuandong looked a little confused, "Just now the pseudo-emperor said in the court that every family can return to Guanzhong."

King Zhen's eyes burst out with brilliance, "Who is there?"

"Aristocratic families, powerful officials, clans...including the king and others."

Prince Zhen covered his forehead and said, "Does he want to look good to my younger brother?"

"Your Majesty is wise...what a pity."

Zheng Yuandong shook his head, "If it were a peaceful time, the king would be the crown prince!"

"But these are troubled times. In troubled times, people are worse than dogs!"

Zheng Yuandong handed over his hand and said, "Sichuan is not a place where I can stay for a long time. Before I leave, I have a few words..."

"you say."

"Shun Tian obeys his orders!"

Zheng Yuandong turned around and left, and later appeared in front of King Yong.

"Can you go back?"

King Yong couldn't believe it.

"yes!"

Zheng Yuandong smiled bitterly and said: "In those years when the aristocratic family became powerful, I once thought that only the great king's forbearing temper could pull the Tang Dynasty out of the quagmire. But who would have thought that time would also bring fate, but the King of Qin suddenly emerged.

"

"What were your plans back then?" King Yong asked with a smile.

"Back then, I discussed with others to win over some officials and generals who were dissatisfied with the puppet emperor and wait for an opportunity to launch a palace coup."

"I know this. What I want to ask is, what are your ambitions?"

Zheng Yuandong was startled, then thought about it, and laughed at himself: "I have forgotten... my ambition..." He raised his head, with a look of sadness in his eyes.

"Open up territory for the Tang Dynasty!"

…

The King of Yue is becoming more and more transparent now.

After escaping to Shu, the territory became smaller, the court also became smaller, and there were fewer things to do.

Li Mi wanted to work hard, and often took care of things with his own hands. After working hard, his spirits improved a lot.

Everyone looked at it and thought, it seems that the emperor can still struggle for a few more years, so naturally the prince will have no chance.

"Your Majesty spends money like water. Most of it is used in the army, and some is used to win over the dignitaries and the rich people of Shu. I have been observing for a long time and found that your Majesty is a little unusually excited."

Zhao Dongping was very surprised, "Your Majesty is quite old..."

In the study, the King of Yue sat by the window. "His woman ran away and lived in the palace, waiting for that scoundrel to favor her. This was a great shame and humiliation for him. However, if it had not been for this great shame and humiliation, he would have been like a walking corpse."

…”

"The king is saying that your majesty lives by this idea?"

"Yes. What kind of dignity can you achieve by hiding in Shu after losing your country? It's said to be a counterattack, but look at that scoundrel. Even the Southern Zhou Dynasty was wiped out by him. Just by relying on the troops he recruited, just by relying on Shu.

There is a small area, and with just those generals... do you think we can successfully counterattack?"

"cannot!"

"He is more afraid of death than anyone else, but he is willing to take risks. It is because there are not many ideas to keep him alive. One is the country, and the other is the woman. In the corner of the country, the woman falls aside..."

The King of Yue said sarcastically: "There is no need for him to counterattack now. That scoundrel has returned to Chang'an, and it won't take long for him to lead a large army to cover him up."

…

Zhou Zun hurried home.

"Aye, Zitai destroyed the Southern Zhou Dynasty!"

"I already know it."

Zhou Qin carried the bird cage and whistled at the old dog.

"The country is finally settled."

Zhou's residence in Shu was very spacious, and Zhou Qin's residence had a large courtyard with many flowers and trees, not to mention small bridges and flowing water.

The father and son walked slowly on the path.

"The Southern Zhou Dynasty was destroyed, and the Central Plains was unified except for Shu and Western Xinjiang. Moreover, the territory was unprecedented. I think Zitai will not have an ancestral name from now on."

The so-called ancestors usually refer to the founding emperor, the great ancestor, or the great ancestor.

Zhou Qin spoke highly of his grandson-in-law.

"The puppet emperor ordered that all the families who followed him into Shu can go back."

The servant brought tea, Zhou Zun took it, took a sip, and said happily: "This is to cause trouble for Zitai."

"Guanzhong is the territory of these people. The local snakes have returned. Guanzhong and Chang'an will be very lively!"

"Actually, as long as Zitai doesn't change those rules, these people will definitely choose to surrender."

"I see, it's difficult!"

From beginning to end, neither father nor son mentioned Zhou's whereabouts.

No matter how stupid Li Mi is, he will still hold Zhou and Huang Chunhui hostage.

"Prince Zhen and Prince Yong will definitely go back too, right?"

"Yes, on the way home, I saw the two families packing their things."

"I'm so happy!" Zhou Qin sighed: "I wonder if my soul may return to my hometown."

"Definitely!"

…

King Qin and his party returned to Chang'an on a cold afternoon.

"I have met His Highness!"

Returning to the palace again, King Qin felt less strange and said to Zhou Ning: "It feels like home now."

"There are too many people." Li Laoer felt that too many people were troublesome.

"It's a bit more."

King Qin said casually.

Weary from the journey, the family took a shower and each took a nap.

King Qin woke up in the middle of the night, dressed himself and went out.

The maids on night duty outside were panicking. King Qin waved his hand, "Don't disturb the princess."

It was cold, he rubbed his hands, and a palace maid opened his clothes...

"This is?"

King Qin was puzzled, so the maid said: "I will warm your Majesty's hands."

"absurd!"
