A royal elongated carriage was on the way to the palace, and the simple carriage had only one big character "Zhou" written on it, but almost everyone knew that only the royal family of Zhou was qualified to use this single character on the carriage.

Even the small and medium-sized families under the Zhou family of the royal family have to add their own family's surname after the word "Zhou".

Undoubtedly, the owner of this carriage is none other than the owner of the Zhou Kingdom.

Along the way, all the patrols who saw the carriage paid homage, and all the checkpoints along the way were allowed to pass, and they returned to the palace in almost a quarter of an hour without hindrance.

The first to get down from the carriage was Zhang Tianyu, the financial official and congressman of the second grade of the kingdom, followed by Huang Tian, the prime minister of the kingdom, Wang Sancai followed behind Huang Tian, and the last to come down was the crown prince Zhou Ran.

"Erqi, send His Highness back to his room to rest." Huang Tian gave a faint command to the groom.

Huang Erqi jumped out of the carriage and said respectfully to Zhou Ran: "Please allow me to escort His Highness back to the room to rest." ”

Zhou Ran didn't talk, but threw an inquiring look at Wang Sancai.

Wang Sancai nodded quietly in agreement, and Zhou Ran breathed a sigh of relief as if he had been greatly encouraged, relieved and left with Huang Erqi.

No matter how secretive Wang Sancai's action was, it still fell into the eyes of Huang Tian and Zhang Tianyu, what does this show? shows that Zhou Ran is obviously listening to Wang Sancai's words!

Huang Tian was silent, but Zhang Tianyu pondered and took the initiative to ask: "Haven't asked this adult for his name?" ”

Don't look at the carriage from the suburbs to the palace It took nearly half an hour, but. From Huang Tian to pick up Zhou Ran and Wang Sancai, until the way back, he can talk less and talk less, Zhang Tianyu, who is familiar with Huang Tian's temper, understands that Huang Tian is angry, but he doesn't know why Huang Tian is angry.

And Huang Tian didn't take the initiative to speak, Zhang Tianyu naturally didn't dare to speak, the two of them didn't speak, and Wang Sancai didn't want to say anything because of Zhang Tianyu and Zhou Ran.

Because of this, the atmosphere on the way back can be described as extremely depressing.

Until Huang Tian took the initiative to tell Huang Erqi to send Zhou Ran back to rest just now, it was almost the first sentence he said in half an hour.

So. Zhang Tianyu still doesn't know who Wang Sancai is. He just found out that Zhou Ran listened to Wang Sancai's words very much, and he couldn't help but want to take the initiative to explore Wang Sancai's details.

In particular, his honorific title of Wang Sancai further reflects his unconfident psychology in his heart.

It's just that Wang San hasn't spoken yet. Huang Tian took the initiative to explain to Zhang Tianyu: "He is His Highness's personal escort Beiyang Shui. has been escorting His Highness out for training. Take care of His Highness's daily life. ”

Other than that, he didn't say a word.

Even if Zhang Tianyu does not have the identity of a second-class financial official, he only relies on his identity as a member of Congress. That can be regarded as a "central leader", don't look at Wang Sancai is just a title of "guard", it's like saying...... What is the rank of the president's driver?

"It turned out to be the Beiyang guard, and where I was negligent before, I also looked at the Beiyang guard Haihan." Zhang Tianyu's tone was very respectful, since Huang Tian didn't introduce too much, he was also very knowledgeable and didn't ask too much, he understood very well that he would tell himself when he should let himself know something.

"Lord Zhang is polite." How could Wang Sancai not know Zhang Tianyu's thoughts? He smiled politely, and then explained casually: "I also want Lord Zhang not to misunderstand me, His Highness has just followed me for a long time and has some reliance on me, presumably His Highness will regain his opinion when he comes back to live for a while." ”

"The Beiyang guards are too modest." Zhang Tianyu said politely again, he understood that since he couldn't ask more, he would at least be familiar in front of Wang Sancai, and the goal was achieved, so he took the initiative to leave: "Since the matter is over, then I should also go back to rest, and I also hope that the Prime Minister and the Beiyang guards will pay attention to their bodies." ”

"This time it's really annoying Lord Zhang, another day His Royal Highness will speak, and I will personally visit and thank Lord Zhang." Wang Sancai may give him a promise, after all, he can't let his family come here for nothing, right?

This Zhang Tianyu is obviously very interested in Wang Sancai, but he just speaks without leaking, Wang Sancai understands that even if he is not a dangerous person, he must be a smart person who knows how to protect himself, and he must give face to this kind of person.

Sure enough, as soon as he heard Wang Sancai's words, Zhang Tianyu was radiant, and after smiling and politely saying a few words again, he wanted to leave.

Finally, Huang Tian still spoke: "It's so late, don't go back, it's a long way, I think it's just a rest in the palace, and I'll find someone to escort Master Zhang back tomorrow." ”

Huang Tian's words showed a signal, indicating that he was not very repulsive to Zhang Tianyu, Zhang Tianyu listened to it, his face suddenly relaxed a little, and when he was about to say something, Huang Tian suddenly said: "I hope that Lord Zhang will not talk nonsense about tonight's matter, even if he says something, he must say it truthfully." ”

The deep meaning of his words is really enough to make people ponder, Zhang Tianyu responded after a moment of silence, and Huang Tian casually found a palace maid and took him away.

In the end, only Huang Tian and Wang Sancai were left in the same place.

Before Wang Sancai could speak, Huang Tian said in a faint angry voice: "Why don't you play your cards as planned?" I'll just let you take him to the palace quietly, what do you mean by making this farce? ”

Wang Sancai was always angry with himself tomorrow, but Wang Sancai was not angry, he even explained solemnly: "Patriarch Huang, are you busy with affairs these days, and you don't have enough brains?" ”

If anyone dared to talk to the prime minister like this, it would definitely be regarded as deliberately abusive, but Wang Sancai said such a sentence in a straight way, which made Huang Tian's anger lessen: "How can you say this? ”

Wang Sancai took a deep breath and motioned for Huang Tian to say as he walked, so he said: "Patriarch Huang, you think, Zhou Ran has disappeared for so long, I am also a person who appeared out of thin air, the two of us suddenly appeared in front of the palace out of thin air, even if we carry your waist card, do you think no one will suspect it?" ”

"Isn't there anyone who doubts you about this farce?" Huang Tian had obviously thought about this a long time ago. At this time, I can't help but feel a little impulsive to reply.

Wang Sancai didn't care, and continued: "There will definitely be, but at least it will divert a lot of attention, and those who doubt will eventually wonder why Zhou Ran chose to live in a small inn without revealing his identity, and will no longer wonder why he appeared out of thin air." ”

Of course Huang Tian is not stupid, he is also angry that Wang Sancai does not play cards according to the routine, but after Wang Sancai's explanation, he calmed down and thought about it, and he did feel that it was very reasonable, and most of the anger in his heart suddenly dissipated. He sighed and said, "Indeed." According to what you say, then it is somewhat convincing for you to protect Zhou Ran from going out for secret training. ”

Wang Sancai nodded: "Just like you told Zhang Tianyu and Lord Zhang just now not to talk nonsense, and to say it truthfully, this matter was originally done for others to see." Even if you want to hide it, you will definitely not be able to hide it from the Congress. Not afraid of others knowing. is afraid that Zhang Tianyu will talk nonsense according to his own suspicions, and in this way, it can be regarded as a valid reason. ”

"Don't worry. He's a smart guy and never wants to be a bird. Huang Tian's tone had completely calmed down: "Looking at his attitude, he must know the meaning of Zhou Ning's abdication from Qi Zhi, I am worried that he will exaggerate this matter, but I know him very well, as long as I tell him, he will definitely be very careful and cautious." ”

"Then we can rest assured." Wang Sancai echoed.

Huang Tian frowned: "You should really discuss it with me before you do this, if it's not Zhang Tianyu who goes tonight, but someone else, I'm afraid we won't want to sleep well." ”

"I know it's my fault, this plan can be regarded as my temporary idea, I want to discuss with you but I can't contact you at all." Speaking of this, Wang Sancai laughed and said, "Overall, I'm very lucky, right?" ”

Huang Tian shook his head helplessly, and was amused by Wang Sancai, and couldn't help laughing.

Wang Sancai restrained his smile instead, and asked in a low voice, "After so many days, there should be some progress on Li Guo's side, right?" ”

In this regard, Huang Tian did not hide it, he nodded: "Li Moyan is a person who understands the overall situation, and I also told her your news vaguely, presumably with her intelligence, she must be able to guess your intentions, although she has not given a clear answer yet, but at least she does not exclude the alliance, but the truce is still not negotiable." ”

"And what are you going to do?" Wang Sancai asked.

Huang Tian took a deep breath: "It doesn't matter if you don't stop fighting, anyway, it won't see the light of day for such a thing as the Dark Sect, on the contrary, if we want to suddenly stop the war, it will arouse the vigilance of the Dark Sect, it is better to fight or fight, as long as Li Moyan agrees with us on the matter of dealing with the Dark Sect, it will be enough." ”

"It's no longer necessary to fight this war or not, right?" Wang Sancai interjected: "Didn't Zhou Ning withdraw his troops before? Seems like the last time I heard you say that only one of the main generals was left there, right? During this time, Li Guo's side must have recaptured a lot of territory. ”

"Yes, but as long as I reach a consensus with Li Moyan, then I will ask Your Majesty to send troops in full force again." Huang Tian clenched his fists and crackled.

Wang Sancai frowned slightly: "Is there this necessary?" ”

Huang Tian's tone was erratic: "At least it can also make the Dark Sect relax temporarily." ”

"But if Li Guo gives you reinforcements, even if you want to hide it from the Dark Sect, it won't be possible to hide it, right?" Wang Sancai frowned.

Huang Tian shook his head: "If that's really the case, Li Moyan will let these people pretend to inform me, and I will also transfer troops to deliberately intersect with them, and then she will exchange people to me, no matter how developed the intelligence network of the Dark Sect is, they have no right to interfere in the battlefield." ”

Wang Sancai breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that you have planned every step, anyway, these things are not something I can interfere in, if you want to have anything, just tell me, but ......"

Speaking of this, Wang Sancai shrugged slightly: "It seems that you have arranged everything, and I will definitely be very relaxed by your side." ”

But what he didn't expect was that Huang Tian shook his head: "No, there is one thing that is very tricky right now...... It's especially tricky. (To be continued......)
