Meng Huaiyu murmured: "But I can't remember what benefits or preferential treatment my uncle gave the soldiers at that time. Instead, my uncle himself went to apply for an official position in the Huanxuan court, and he was humiliated by the topic of the sun, moon, and stars.
It’s over.”
Zhou said calmly: "These are private transactions, not public. And as I said, this is a cooperation between me and Liu Tingyun. Your uncle was not involved at the beginning. I also have my own considerations in this matter."
, not entirely for the Meng family."

Liu Yu laughed: "I understand now, you also have to consider the Zhou family. If you offend Liu Tingyun too harshly, your natal family will also be unlucky. On the contrary, it is a pleasure to cooperate with Liu Tingyun. Not to mention here in Jingkou, it is Wu Di
, your family can also get a share of the pie."
Mrs. Zhou also smiled slightly: "Yes, my natal family has not cared about me for many years, and they have not benefited from Yanda's promotion to the governor of the state. But after cooperating with Liu Tingyun, they have become a lot of people."
Liu Tingyun, the intermediary between the Wu Di family and Huan Xuan, was worried about doing these things, because after all, she was helping Huan Xuan from a foreign country to rob the local family's property. This would make the Liu family hated by others in the future, but if it were us Zhou
If you step forward, you can kill two birds with one stone."
Meng Huaiyu frowned: "But are you, the Zhou family, willing to do something so harmful to your character?"
Mrs. Zhou sighed: "Huaiyu, do you remember how our Zhou family fell in the first place? How did our ancestor Zhou Gong Tanqi be forced to death by these aristocratic families who crossed to the south?"
Meng Huaiyu and Liu Yu looked at each other. Zhou Qi, as the son of the famous general Zhou Chu, could be regarded as the most powerful family in Wu. At the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, during the Eight Kings Rebellion and the chaos in the Central Plains, Zhou Qi once served in Wu during the turmoil in the world.
Di regarded himself as the leader and welcomed Sima Rui who had crossed the South Crossing. However, he was so complacent that he thought he was the number one hero and ignored Wang Dao and other Nandu aristocratic families. In the end, he was plotted by the dark hand Qiankun headed by Wang Dao and seduced Wu.
Many local wealthy families attacked him. When Zhou Qi found out that he had betrayed his relatives and abandoned his family, he once lamented, "Whoever kills me is a son, and whoever restores my family is my son!"
It can be said that the achievements and family properties of the aristocratic families in Nandu were built on the ruins of the Zhou family, the local tycoons of Wu. Not only the Zhou family, but also the Qian family, Shen family, Zhang family, etc. also successively founded the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
In the various civil wars at that time, these northern families who crossed south were divided and disintegrated by various means. In the end, there was an internal fight, and everyone died together. They were reduced to second- and third-rate tycoons. They could no longer realize the dream of Wu people ruling Wu.
.
Meng Huaiyu looked at the Zhou family and said in a deep voice: "I understand. The Zhou family was originally destroyed by the aristocratic families from Nandu. I hated these families so much that I took this opportunity to use Huan Xuan as my backer to counterattack them.
, they also dare to be angry but dare not speak out. But if you do this, aren't you afraid that once Huan Chu loses power or is abandoned by Huan Xuan, you will be used as a scapegoat, which will harm yourself? "
Mrs. Zhou smiled slightly: "Everyone knows the relationship between our Zhou family and Liu family. In fact, as long as the Liu family is here, we Zhou family don't have to worry too much. On the other hand, if the Liu family falls, even if we don't help Huan Xuan, we will
will be implicated. Besides, I have my husband Meng Yanda here, and he is from the Beifu Army. If there is really someone who can overthrow Huan Xuan, it will definitely not be those corrupt and depraved families, but heroes like Beifu Army, with Yanda
, as long as Huaiyu, you and Menglong are here, we will have hope."
Liu Yu sighed: "Brothers and sisters, you are really making a long bet, there is always a way out. I also just found out that the lands and shops that Huan Xuan distributed to the Jingzhou generals and the Huan clan were actually obtained by your Zhou family.
The big family wants it back, why don’t these families come to settle accounts with you later?”
Zhou said calmly: "Because Meng Chang followed you to establish righteousness and overthrew Huan Chu. It turns out that the Zhou family did not confiscate these land deeds. In name, the two families operated together and shared the profits. After all, those Huan Chu clan and Jingzhou clan
The soldiers have just arrived in Wudi and they don’t know how to run a business themselves, so they are happy to cooperate with others and reap the benefits themselves.”
Liu Yu nodded: "I'm afraid, the more important reason lies in Meng Yanda's identity. After he founded the Yi Dynasty, he became Danyang Yin, the highest official in the capital. Those high-ranking families, if they get back the Tianqi Shop,
, I won’t fall out with Meng Yanda because of these old things."
Mrs. Zhou sighed: "That's exactly it. However, after I have cooperated with Liu Tingyun for a long time, I found that she is not loyal to her husband Huan Xuan. She has more plans and there are other forces behind her.
Of course, I couldn't ask more about these things. But one day, she suddenly asked me, if Brother Jinu starts an army, what will my Yanda do?"
"I was shocked at the time. I was originally afraid that General Sun Wuzhong and the others would be in trouble, so I had been cautious. But when she asked her directly, I didn't know whether she was testing me or had other ideas. I could only
Kneel down and swear that our family is absolutely loyal to Huan Chu and has no second thoughts, and Brother Jinu, you are also loyal and loyal, serving Da Chu and will never betray Huan Xuan."
Meng Huaiyu sneered and said: "She is testing you. This woman later persuaded Huan Xuan to attack Brother Jinu. If you had answered even half a word wrong at that time, I'm afraid your life would have been in danger."
Zhou shook her head: "I thought so at first, but later, Liu Tingyun pushed back and held hands with me to talk secretly. She said that Huanxuan was rebellious and unpopular. He was definitely not a hero. Once there was a chance, someone would definitely come.
Raise an army to overthrow him. This person may be Liu Yu or another hero, but no matter who it is, Huan Xuan's reign will not last long, so we need to make plans early."
Liu Yu frowned: "Liu Tingyun actually has such vision and insight? I'm afraid I'm still testing you."
Zhou sighed: "I thought so at first, but later, Liu Tingyun said that Huanxuan only cared about the interests of Jingzhou people and allowed them to rob the family's property in Yangzhou and Wudi. He offended the public and refused to listen to her.
Liu Yu was replaced by General Jingzhou to take over the Beifu Army. Originally, the people of Yangzhou thought that Huanxuan would have a new look if he replaced the Sima family. However, he had no ambition to be a hero. Within a year, he had lost all people's hearts. Liu Tingyun thinks
, we must make new plans next, she will not be buried for Huan Xuan."
Liu Yu said calmly: "I finally understood that Liu Tingyun was actually preparing to change her family at that time. Her purpose of finding you was to use your relationship with Yanda to get in touch with Xile, thinking that
Be your supporter in the future."
