Before Zhu Mai hit Wu Zheng's sword, he once recited a few poems, "The good things in the world are not strong, and the glass is easy to break, and the colorful clouds are scattered. The most important thing is that the world cannot be kept, and the red face leaves the mirror, flowers and trees."

Wu Zheng thought that this was Zhu Mo's inner resentment, and he accused him of not following her arrangements.

Or, it is to be resentful to oneself.

But in fact, Wu Zheng finally realized that this was not resentment, but planning.

The most ruthless way to kill people is to kill the heart.

For Wu Zheng, the one who can be regarded as a good thing by him is his family.

If you are betrayed by your own family, then this kind of blow to your soul will be quite heavy.

Zhu Mai, Qian Sule, and Chen Zilong planned such a big situation, which seemed to be seeking welfare for the whole world, and seemed to be clearing obstacles for Wu Zheng's ascension to the throne.

In fact, their plans do have the intention to seek welfare for the people of the world, but the most important thing is to attack Wu Zheng.

There is no need to guess this, because when Wu Zheng, who was in Hejian Prefecture, saw the dirty Mao Xiang, Ma Shiying and others, Wu Zheng learned that the new king had ascended the throne in Yingtian Prefecture.

Although the ascension to the throne was quietly, at least no official at all levels received any news outside Yingtian Mansion.

But it was indeed the new king who ascended the throne.

Then the question is, Zhu Cilang is dead, and Zhu Mai is dead too.

Zhu Yihai, who ascended the throne twice, was imprisoned in the Censorate Prison for public trial.

Who among the royal family has such courage to ascend the throne under the shock of Wu Zheng's 200,000 Northern Expedition Army?

Aren’t you afraid that Wu Zheng would sweep the dust by wielding his troops?

Can Wu Zheng be willing to accept this fact and bow down to his superiors?

Then we need to see who the new king is.

Wu Xiaomei.

Wu Xiaomei, who was only nineteen years old, should be Zhu Chenyu, who was supported by her ministers overnight as the new king.

Wu Zheng smiled bitterly at the secret report, and he suddenly understood the true intention of Zhu Mai, Qian Sule and Chen Zilong's conspiracy.

The royal family and there are people.

And this person is someone who Wu Zheng could not wave his sword to face each other because he regarded Zhu Chenyu as his family, and Zhu Chenyu was guarded by ten generations of the Wu family.

The strong are angry and draw their swords at the stronger ones.

Wu Zheng is a strong man. Can he swing his sword at his sister?

Zhu Mai, Qian Sule, and Chen Zilong are indeed the best people. They calculated the softest part of Wu Zheng's heart.

It was not until this time that Wu Zheng understood why Zhu Mai was angry when she heard Zhu Chenyu's heart towards her and finally chose to hit the tip of her sword before her death.

Wu Zheng had never understood before that the real intentions of Zhu Mai and others seemed to be for the world and for themselves... But in fact, Wu Zheng didn't need them, at least, Wu Zheng thought he could settle them.

But now, Wu Zheng knew that what they really wanted was the Fuming Room.

Wu Zheng's hand was trembling, and someone stabbed him in the back, and the person stabbed was Wu Xiaomei.

When Zhu Ma was brought back to Hangzhou Prefecture by Wu Zheng, she once said that as long as she lived for one day, she would not let Wu Zheng live well.

Now, she really did it.

Chen Zilong sacrificed his life to launch a rebellion, which was actually just a trick, attracted Wu Zheng's attention and diverted it to Zhu Yihai, and Chen Zilong also succeeded.

What made Wu Zheng the most painful was that his father-in-law Qian Sule also betrayed himself at this moment. He thought that Qian Sule died to blame Zhu Yihai, but now, Wu Zheng felt Qian Sule's pain, because it was Wu Zheng who really betrayed by Qian Sule.

It is precisely this betrayal that made Qian Sule choose to die, so that he would not have to face Wu Zheng and his daughter, the princess.

All the anger turned into a bitter smile at the end.

Huang Changping felt the pain of Wu Zheng, slowly, quietly retreated, and then gently closed the door for Wu Zheng and the others.

....

Mao Xiang's face was dull, and he didn't even look at Wu Zheng.

Ma Shiying whispered: "Actually, as long as the prince is to mobilize troops... there may be room for anything to turn things around..."

This is obviously a test.

In fact, it was not only Ma Shiying, but also Mao Xiang thought so.

Their hearts are like a mirror. It is not difficult to change dynasties. The difficulty lies in what the person in front of them thinks.

Wu Zheng was still smiling bitterly, "Old Ma, do you think if Gu returns to the army to attack Yingtian Mansion...what should people in the world think? Should they praise Gu for his relatives for justice, or praise him for his quick decision?"

Ma Shiying lowered her head and sighed softly. With one sentence, she understood Wu Zheng’s thoughts. Since that’s the case, she could only sigh and do nothing!

Mao Xiang couldn't help but sternly said: "Your Highness, the King of Wu, and others were escorted out of the capital... not to listen to your highness complaining about your children's love, nor to see your highness's kindness...!"

Wu Zheng turned his head suddenly and stared at Mao Xiang and said, "Then you teach me what to do... it is in line with your Mao Pijiang's wishes?"

Mao Xiang shouted: "Please send a message to the world in the name of supervising the country... The one who ascended the throne in Yingtian Prefecture was a pseudo-emperor and a treacherous minister. When His Highness was fighting for the country, the trick of taking advantage of the situation was to steal the world!"

"But she... is really a descendant of Huizong. The imperial seal from that time is a proof of her life experience!" Wu Zheng smiled bitterly, "And she is my sister... How can the loyalty and righteousness of the Wu family guarded for ten generations be ruined by me in one go... If my father knew about it, he would have to break my legs!"

Speaking of it, Wu Zhengsuan was having fun in pain.

No one would think that Wu Bochang would break the leg of the son of the king of Wu, who was already the governor.

But people at that time all valued filial piety and righteousness, so Wu Zheng's words made Mao Xiang unable to speak a rebuttal for a while.

The Wu family's concealment was to protect the Huizong lineage. Ten generations of people were not allowed to enter the officialdom. How painful was it in this era?

Just as Wu Bochang sighed, if he only studied and failed to take the imperial examination, half of his life would pass by in a blink of an eye.

But now, if Wu Zheng really wants to lead his troops south and seize the throne from Zhu Chenyu, then, what is the doubt about the robbery? It is even worse!

And such practices will be directed by thousands of people at that time.

Mao Xiang sat down on the chair dejectedly and said, "God's will... it's impossible, it's impossible!"

This "cannot" is not the same as that "cannot", and it does express all the entanglements in Wu Zheng's heart.

Ma Shiying whispered: "But...even if the prince didn't intend to return to the south, there must be something wrong with this matter... right?"

This makes sense. There is no outlier in the news that Zhu Chenyu ascended the throne. It is just Yingtian’s mansion, perhaps also testing Wu Zheng’s reaction.

But after all, the court supported Zhu Chenyu, and it would be a matter of time before the imperial edict was announced to the world.

Then Wu Zheng either relied on his own or surrendered, and there was no second way to go. Of course, there was another way, which was to govern across the river, but this practice was equivalent to division, and Wu Zheng disdained it.

Wu Zheng raised his head and sighed, "Ignore it... Let's take back Shuntian Mansion first... If she still thinks I am the elder brother, she should take the initiative... If she no longer thinks I am the elder brother, why bother to care about the explanation... Just let her go!"
