Chapter Thirty-Seven: The Undercurrent Is Turbulent
"Brother-in-law, brother-in-law, slow down, wait for me!" There was a sudden sound of excitement behind him.
"Zhou Chi?" Jumen was surprised.
saw Zhou Chi with a group of servants, and he approached excitedly.
"Hahaha, brother-in-law, you just threw them into the water, it's really relieving!" Zhou Chi laughed excitedly.
"Why are you here? Tianyin is also coming? A hint of joy flashed on Wang Xiong's face.
"My sister? My sister didn't come, but I brought some Zhou family members to Shendu! Zhou Chi said.
"Oh?" Wang Xiong showed a hint of disappointment.
"Not long ago, the emperor sent a letter to the southern palace, on the one hand, to ask my sister about the death of Yingsheng, and on the other hand, to invite the southern palace to come to the divine capital and 'qualificate' the new king of the east. My dad didn't come, so let me represent! Zhou Chi explained.
"Qualitatively the new King of the East?" Wang Xiong's eyes narrowed slightly.
It seems that it is not so easy to chase the eye of heaven from the emperor this time.
The king of the south understood that he, the king of the east, could not be recognized by Great Qin, and mainly looked at the human emperor. The king of the south knew that he could not control the outcome, so he did not come, and even more did not attend, expressing a kind of dissatisfaction with the emperor.
"I invited the king of the south to define the position of this king, heh! The human emperor is going to make a big move, so it shouldn't be just the king of the south, right? Wang Xiong looked at Zhou Chi.
"Of course, the king of the south, the king of the west, and the king of the north have all received the letter, brother-in-law, you have to be careful!" Zhou Chi said immediately.
Wang Xiong nodded: "Do you know where my Eastern Palace is?" ”
"Of course I know, I also went to see it, I heard that soon after your father's death, the people in the palace ran away one after another, if it weren't for the emperor's staring, it would have been occupied by people a long time ago, and now, others dare not occupy it, and no one lives, the grass has long grown, otherwise, brother-in-law, how about you go to my southern palace?" Zhou Chi persuaded.
"No need, the grass will grow grass, you take us there!" Wang Xiong said with a smile.
"Alright, come with me!" Zhou Chi nodded.
"Gongzi Zhou, please!" The giant gate suddenly jumped off the crane and let Zhou Chi ride.
Zhou Chi jumped on the crane without giving up.
A group of five hundred green wolves is extremely eye-catching, and it is also extremely easy to recognize.
Along the way, the people on the street frowned and pointed their fingers, as if they were extremely repulsive to Wang Xiong and his party.
"Everyone on the street seems to know me?" Wang Xiong said curiously.
"Of course, during this time, the whole city is talking about you, you don't know, your current name can stop children crying at night!" Zhou Chi said with a smile.
"Oh? Can my name scare a child out of tears? Hahaha, tell me about it! Wang Xiong said with a smile.
"I don't know when it started, it is rumored that you are fierce and vicious, you are the devil from hell, and you want to subvert the Great Qin regime, saying that your first step is to destroy the bloodline of the emperor, and the death of Yingsheng is the evidence. Then, he deceived the true god to approve, and then forced the kind-hearted Pang Taiwei to leave Zhendong City in embarrassment! Zhou Chi explained.
"Kind Captain Pang? Hahahaha! Wang Xiong showed a sneer.
"These rumors have noses and eyes, and the storytellers from all over the world continue to blacken you, you know, the common people are the most simple, and then they are bewitched, and the whole city is rejecting you. I don't know why, this wind is blowing so fast! Zhou Chi frowned.
"Because someone is adding fuel to the fire, before I come, I will make my reputation stink, hehe, and he is not a small official, otherwise, slandering the king of Great Qin at will is a big crime, and no one is accountable!" Wang Xiong said with a cold look in his eyes.
"Who said it wasn't, don't guess, it must be Yingfen and Yingdong father and son!" Zhou Chi said suddenly.
"It should be more than them!" Wang Xiong shook his head.
"Huh? Who else is not them? Zhou Chi was puzzled.
"There are also officials who want me to be the title of 'king'!" Wang Xiong explained.
Zhou Chi's expression moved, and he instantly understood, no wonder there was an uproar in the city, and those officials seemed to be deaf. It turns out that everyone has a careful mind. Yingfen wants to be crowned king, and many officials also want to be crowned king. They all wanted to kill Wang Xiong and replace him themselves.
The eight kings will not be destroyed, and they will never be crowned kings! Obviously, how many poisonous snakes are staring at Wang Xiong.
"This group of bastards, the King of the Quartet formed an alliance with the Human Emperor back then, and they still want to fight for everything in the Quartet Palace? Lao Tzu is dead, and his son can't inherit the throne, so what rights does the king of the four directions have? Zhou Chi suddenly said angrily.
Zhou Chi is the son of the king of the south, can't he inherit everything from his father in the future?
"Don't worry, it's mine, no one can snatch it!" Wang Xiong said with a smile.
"Well, brother-in-law, I will definitely support your decision! You must sit on the throne! Zhou Chi suddenly said.
"How is your sister now?" Wang Xiong looked at Zhou Chi.
"I don't know, when my sister came back, she went to her master, her master is an immortal, she seems to be very powerful, and my father won't let me ask. However, about the matter of the Divine Tomb Mountain, my sister also wrote a letter and asked me to hand it over to the human emperor, but the letter was double-sealed, and I couldn't open it, and I don't know what my sister wrote! Zhou Chi shook his head and said.
"Hmm!" Wang Xiong nodded and didn't ask any more.
"By the way, the king of the north didn't come, but just sent his son Jiang Zishan to come, and Jiang Zishan seems to be quite hostile to you!" Zhou Chi recalled.
"That's natural, in the former underground palace, Jiang Zishan wanted to harm me and Tianyin, but we countered it, and his subordinates were killed by me, so it's no wonder that he has no hostile intentions!" Wang Xiong said with a smile.
"That brother-in-law, you have to be careful of him, the Quartet Palaces are all angry, don't give him bad things!" Zhou Chi said.
Wang Xiong nodded: "Don't worry, he can't afford to make a big wave!" ”
"Brother-in-law, how did you do it when you crossed the sea before? It's amazing, you don't know, the people on the dock were stunned! Zhou Chi suddenly said excitedly.
"It's a secret between me and your sister, sorry!" Wang Xiong shook his head.
"Huh? All right! Zhou Chi smiled wryly.
"By the way, do you know what title Yingdong is?" Wang Xiong said curiously.
"Yingdong, he doesn't have a title!"
"Why?"
"He has a lot of military achievements, but he gave all the credit to his younger brother Yingsheng, Yingsheng made a part of the credit, plus the credit given by Yingdong, to become Wanshenghou. After all, the Marquis of Great Qin is not so easy! Speaking of which, I wonder why he doesn't want any credit. Zhou Chi also showed a blank look.
"Because he is more ambitious, what he wants is my 'throne'!" Wang Xiong said solemnly.
"I see!" Zhou Chi nodded.
Not long after, the group came to the foot of a big mountain, on which a mountain spring fell, like a small waterfall, and at the foot of the mountain below, there were a large number of buildings, surrounded by walls, and the weeds inside were wildly rising, and even some palaces were covered with grass.
"Oriental Palace?" Wang Xiong reads the plaque at the door.
"This plaque is already covered with dust, and the inside is overgrown with grass, brother-in-law, why don't you live with me!" Zhou Chi invited again.
"No, this palace, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, it's good, why don't you clean it up? I'm so many, it's not easy to clean up? Wang Xiong said with a smile.
"Okay!" Zhou Chi could only nod.
The wolves and the two tigers quickly went to clean up. Wang Xiong stepped into the Oriental Palace, looking at the layout of the Quartet, but his mind had already reached the court.

Taiwu Palace!
Su Dingfang had just returned to the palace from the palace.
"Dad, Dad, I heard from the people below that Wang Xiong has arrived in the divine capital? And built a fish bridge? The county lord of Qinghuan suddenly pounced excitedly.
Su Dingfang saw his daughter's excitement and smiled slightly: "Yes, Wang Xiong has arrived!" ”
"Dad, when you went to the human emperor, did you say anything good for Wang Xiong?" The county lord of Qinghuan suddenly said eagerly.
Su Dingfang naturally did not say good things about Wang Xiong in front of the human emperor, and even suggested that the human emperor cut the feudal domain. After all, from your own point of view, if you favor Wang Xiong too much, not only is it not a good thing, it may still be a bad thing.
However, his daughter's expectant eyes made Su Dingfang not know how to explain for a while.
"Today, the Emperor summoned me to discuss some other matters, and there was no mention of Wang Xiong!" Su Dingfang comforted.
"Oh, that's a pity, now there are bad people in the city who keep saying bad things about Wang Xiong, I'm really angry!" The county lord of Qinghuan puffed out his mouth and said angrily.
"Okay, don't be angry, since Wang Xiong is here, what should be faced still has to be faced!" Su Dingfang comforted.
"Dad, I'm going to find Wang Xiong, the guards at the door won't let me out, I'll go out for a while!" The county lord of Qinghuan said coquettishly.
Su Dingfang shook his head: "At this time, you can't see Wang Xiong!" ”
"Why?" The county lord of Qinghuan suddenly said anxiously.
"There are three days left, on the ninth day of the ninth month of September, the emperor will summon Wang Xiong in the court, the civil and military officials, the Ying clan's mansion, and the kings will gather, and then they will determine the matter of Wang Xiong's killing of Yingsheng, and the state will judge Wang Xiong. And you, as an important witness, are not allowed to meet Wang Xiong at this time! Su Dingfang explained.
"Huh? Why, that Yingsheng wants to kill me, Dad, he wants to kill me, if Wang Xiong didn't save me, Dad wouldn't be able to see Huan'er, Wang Xiong protected Huan'er, and he had to be tried, Dad, you won't help Wang Xiong, right? If it weren't for him, my daughter would have died, woo woo woo! The county lord of Qinghuan suddenly cried.
"Don't cry, don't cry, Dad didn't say he wouldn't help, but he didn't help, he Wang Xiong killed Yingsheng!" Su Dingfang suddenly comforted softly.
"Dad will definitely be able to help, woo woo, Huan'er's life or death, is it so unimportant? People saved Huan'er's life, is it wrong? Who dares to save his daughter in the future, woo woo, daddy! The county lord of Qinghuan is crying aggrievedly.
While crying, the county lord of Qinghuan also glanced at his father from time to time.
But the county lord of Qinghuan is too tender after all, can this little trick deceive Su Dingfang? Su Dingfang naturally saw his daughter's deliberate complaints, but who let himself be this baby daughter? knew that his daughter deliberately forced herself, but Su Dingfang still ate this set.
"Okay, okay, don't cry, if it's appropriate, I'll help Wang Xiong say a word or two, but you don't want to see Wang Xiong these days. Listen to me! Su Dingfang said softly.
"Daddy's the best!" The county lord of Qinghuan immediately happily kissed Su Dingfang on the face.
"Alas!" Su Dingfang sighed with a wry smile.
Seeing his daughter begging for other men, Su Dingfang was also helpless. It's a strange feeling, as if your most precious thing is about to be snatched away by someone else, but you can't help it.
