The Zhou Mufu is located in the north of Wangjiang City, covering a large area and majestic atmosphere.
The two stone lions in front of the door are as tall as one person and are majestic.
After the gatekeeper learned that Xiao Changfeng and the others were from Yin Yang Academy, he did not dare to make things difficult. He opened the door and welcomed the three people in.
"Master Zhao lives in the west wing, I will take three of you there!"
The concierge humbly led the way.
Xiao Changfeng and the other three were looking at the scene in the Zhou Mu Mansion.
The governor of Qingzhou is named Zhou Zhenghao, and he is a high-ranking official of the first rank.
It is said that this man was upright and upright, and won the heart of Emperor Wu.
Ten years ago, Zhou Zhenghao, who was in his twenties, was appointed as Qingzhou Shepherd.
Ten years later, Qingzhou went from being the last state to the most prosperous state after Jingzhou.
Zhou Zhenghao is indispensable.
It is rumored that Emperor Wu wanted to recall him to Kyoto many times, but he refused every time and only wanted to stay in Qingzhou.
The layout and scenery in the Zhou Mufu, just like Zhou Zhenghao, is simple and elegant, without any fancy.
Turning around a rockery, Xiao Changfeng's eyes were suddenly attracted by a figure involuntarily.
"I've met the master!"
The concierge who led the way quickly bowed and saluted with great respect.
master?
There is only one person in this state's pastorate who can be called a master.
Qingzhou Mu, Zhou Zhenghao!
Although Zhou Zhenghao is in his thirties, he does not look old because of his profound cultivation. On the contrary, he is tall and burly, exuding a powerful aura, showing the aura of a king.
Zhou Zhenghao is not only a Qingzhou Mu, but also a strong man in the Imperial Martial Realm.
"Sir, these three came to see Master Zhao from Yin Yang Academy!"
The concierge spoke respectfully and reported his behavior to Zhou Zhenghao.
Xiao Changfeng was looking at Zhou Zhenghao, and Zhou Zhenghao was also looking at Xiao Changfeng.
suddenly.
Zhou Zhenghao has his sleeves furrowed and his head straight, his body as straight as a spear.
Immediately, he held a salute with both hands and bowed to Xiao Changfeng.
"Wei Chen has met His Highness Ninth Prince!"
As Zhou Zhenghao performed the courtesy of a courtier, Lin Ruoyu and Lu Wenjie remembered.
Xiao Changfeng is not only a student of Yin Yang Academy, but also the ninth prince of Dawu Dynasty.
It's just that Xiao Changfeng has always had a reputation as a waste.
So many people have long ignored his status as a prince.
But Zhou Zhenghao did not ignore it, and even performed the courtesy of a courtier meticulously.
"Master Zhou, there is no need to be polite!"
Xiao Changfeng raised his hand, but his expression did not change at all.
He knew that Zhou Zhenghao was not paying tribute to himself, but to the status of the prince.
"Your Highness is here to see Master Zhao?"
Zhou Zhenghao straightened his back again, his eyes were bright and full of energy.
Xiao Changfeng nodded.
"Your Highness, I have a few words that I would like to say to you alone!"
Suddenly Zhou Zhenghao glanced at Lin Ruoyu and Lu Wenjie and spoke in a deep voice.
"good!"
Xiao Changfeng was confused and his eyes flickered, but he did not refuse.
The two walked to the lake center pavilion not far away.
"Master Zhou came to see me, what's the matter?"
Xiao Changfeng looked calm, neither humble nor arrogant.
Zhou Zhenghao used his spiritual energy to block the flow of his voice while waving his hands, and then he spoke.
"I heard that His Highness made a one-year appointment with His Majesty in Yin Yang Academy?"
Did the eldest prince also win over Zhou Zhenghao?
Xiao Changfeng was confused, but nodded anyway.
"Your Highness, as a minister, you should not intervene in the dispute between the princes, but for your Majesty and for your sake, I have to say this!"
Zhou Zhenghao stared at Xiao Changfeng, his eyes were upright, just like his character.
"His Highness possesses twin martial souls and is extremely talented. He dominates the contemporary generation. Among the thirteen princes, no one can compete with him."
"Besides, the Queen is powerful, and the Wei Guogong lineage has many voices in the court, and each department has its own manpower."
"Compared with them, you are weak and weak, and fighting against them is like an egg against a stone!" xdw8
Zhou Zhenghao stared at Xiao Changfeng, trying to read his intention to retreat.
pity.
How could Xiao Changfeng's heart as an Immortal Emperor be affected by him?
"What do you mean, Mr. Zhou?"
Xiao Changfeng's expression remained as usual and he spoke calmly.
"Weichen's meaning is very clear!"
Zhou Zhenghao's voice was like thunder, sonorous and powerful.
"I hope you will no longer be enemies with His Highness. Neither His Highness nor the power of the Queen can be fought against."
"As long as you don't resist, I can protect your safety throughout your life!"
Xiao Changfeng said calmly: "Did Mr. Zhou also seek refuge with the eldest prince?"
"The heart of a humble minister is only for Your Majesty."
Zhou Zhenghao's face was solemn.
"This is not only for you, Your Highness, but also for your mother, Concubine Xuan!"
Whoosh!
Xiao Changfeng's eyes flashed.
Mother?
Is Zhou Zhenghao related to his mother?
"Concubine Xuan saved Wei Chen once. Now that Concubine Xuan has passed away, you are her only bloodline. Wei Chen doesn't want to see you die!"
Zhou Zhenghao spoke again, openly and honestly.
"Master Zhou doesn't like me so much?"
Xiao Changfeng lowered his eyes and said.
"If your martial arts talent can surpass His Highness, or if your power can surpass that of the Queen, you may still be able to compete."
Zhou Zhenghao shook his head and said calmly.
"But I haven't seen this from you. No matter in terms of talent or power, you are far inferior to His Highness and the Queen. What can you use to compete?"
"It is good for young people to be passionate, but hitting a stone with an egg will only cost your life. I don't want to see the only bloodline of Concubine Xuan cut off."
"So, you'd better give up!"
After saying that, Zhou Zhenghao looked at him intently, as if he wanted to see through Xiao Changfeng.
Talent, power, reputation, he had not seen any of these from Xiao Changfeng.
If you want to compete, it will be difficult to reach the sky.
He was not optimistic about Xiao Changfeng.
Because of Concubine Xuan, I specially tried to comfort her this time, hoping that Xiao Changfeng could retreat despite the difficulties.
After a moment of silence, Xiao Changfeng suddenly smiled.
"Mr. Zhou, you are right. No matter whether it is talent or power, I cannot compare with you, but I will not retreat because I am determined to win!"
Xiao Changfeng's eyes were dull, as if nothing could move him.
"Oh, determination? But no matter how strong the determination is, without power, it is just a flower in the mirror and a moon in the water."
Zhou Zhenghao shook his head in disappointment.
"Wei Chen is currently a Qingzhou Mu, at the sixth level of the Imperial Martial Realm, with a hundred thousand soldiers. However, Wei Chen does not dare to say that he can compete with His Highness and the Queen. Your Highness, it will take dozens or even more for you to reach Wei Chen's level.
After a hundred years, what are we going to use to fight against?”
Speaking of this, Zhou Zhenghao couldn't help but snorted angrily.
This is no longer the passion of young people, this is simply overestimating one's abilities!
"Master Zhou, what you said is not worth mentioning to me!"
Xiao Changfeng spoke calmly.
"Your Highness, Your Highness, you are too stubborn. It is easy to break if you go too far!"
Seeing that Xiao Changfeng had no intention of changing, Zhou Zhenghao couldn't help but shook his head with a look of disappointment.
"That's all, go ahead and come back to Wei Chen when you figure it out!"
After saying that, he turned around and left, no longer staying.
completely lose hope!
Looking at Zhou Zhenghao's leaving figure, Xiao Changfeng shook his head.
"In your eyes, I am insignificant, like an egg hitting a stone."
"But I don't know that in my eyes, even the entire Dawu Dynasty is just a tiny place."
"Why rely on others? I alone am a wealthy family, and alone I am a noble family!"
