Three thousand occupations can be introduced

Already, that's all.

"I'm leaving, you can do it yourself."

Break the window and go away, like a cloud of green smoke.

Zhou Xu looked up, why did he feel like he was running away when he saw this real princess~

27. The rain is coming

The birthday of the Supreme Emperor is approaching, and all kinds of congratulatory gifts from nobles to ordinary people have arrived in Kyoto one after another.

Not to mention how exquisite the congratulatory gifts of the aristocrats and the elaborate congratulatory gifts presented by the officials, even some wealthy businessmen took this opportunity to show off.

Take the opportunity to offer rare treasures to win the favor of the Holy One.And the people who are interested will carve birthday peaches or get some lucky things to celebrate.

Shops of all sizes are decorated very festively, and everyone in Kyoto communicates with each other about the birthday gifts offered by that place, whether they are creative, and whether they are rare or not.The storyteller in the teahouse made up the story of the auspicious beast well and logically, and the teahouse was always full.

All the people in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty were immersed in the joy of the national celebration, and this kind of fiery emotion reached its climax on the birthday of the Supreme Emperor.

However, the auspicious beasts offered by Luoyang Lingxian did not arrive.All the officials were shocked, and the nobles looked at each other in blank dismay.The Supreme Emperor was expressionless, with a deep expression on his face.

At the birthday banquet, the little emperor looked gloomy, where is the auspicious beast?

Zhou Xu squinted at the officials kneeling on the ground, but his mind drifted to when he had just returned to the palace, thinking of the words of the three uninvited guests.

He couldn't help but look at the Master Huineng standing behind the little emperor, who was full of immortal demeanor, hearty and wise.

But I don't know whether this person's heart is black or red?

The official kneeling on the ground dripped sweat directly into his collar in the rustling autumn wind. He tried his best to justify, "The auspicious beasts presented by the Luoyang order arrived in the capital, and I specially arranged a special place for the auspicious beasts to live in, and Arrange special personnel to take care of Ruishou."

"The auspicious beast is gone?" the prime minister asked.This matter is not small, it must be when he was in his early years.

The official said tremblingly: "Today is the birthday of the Supreme Emperor, and the minister even moved the auspicious beast to another place. Just now,..." The official kneeling on the ground was trembling and speechless.

"Just now, when Wei Chen ordered someone to bring it over, he found that the auspicious beast was gone. Only this calf was there!"

The audience was in an uproar!This matter is very strange, could it be that the gods took away the auspicious beast?To put it in a deeper way, it means that the gods are not satisfied with the current emperor.

Seeing the unbelieving eyes of all the officials, the official kneeling on the ground gritted his teeth and said, "Uncle Zhao Guo can testify for this minister from the beginning to the end."

The auspicious beast was lost from him, and it wasn't just a small matter of unfavorable supervision. He lost his official position and returned to his hometown. If he blindly compromised and killed the head, even sat down, it was possible to kill the nine clans.

He was able to take this lucrative position, thanks to Uncle Zhao Guo's efforts.That being the case, why not borrow Zhao Guoshu's power?

Uncle Zhao Guo jumped up from his seat, almost wanting to curse.Fortunately, he saw and understood the look the queen mother gave him in time, so he said calmly: "Where is the evidence? I advise you not to bite people like a mad dog."

Zhou Xu glanced at Uncle Zhao Guo. This person loves beauty, is quick-tempered, and easily becomes angry from embarrassment, but it is difficult to become a master!But just now, he almost jumped the wall in a hurry, but was stopped by the Queen Mother's eyes.

As long as the Queen Mother does not die, Uncle Zhao Guo will not fall.

The prime minister replied: "Now is not the time to pursue responsibility, but to find out the truth. Let the people not panic." If the disappearance of the auspicious beast is known to the people, rumors will spread everywhere.The position of the emperor is not so secure.

The little emperor glanced at Zhou Xu to see that he didn't behave.I was a little disappointed in my heart, but after thinking about the fact that this country must be governed by myself after all, I calmed down.

"Let Kou Que thoroughly investigate this case."

Because Kou Que had investigated the truth and the truth about the princess before, everyone was more convinced.What's more, he was the prime minister's son-in-law, and the officials did not raise any objections.

Glancing at the officials kneeling on the ground, his face was full of impatience. Uncle Zhao's lackey actually bit his master.Waving his hand, "Put it in the sky prison and wait for the review."

Song Qi, the number one scholar, felt like scratching an itch in his heart. How could the Ruishou matter change?It is clearly recorded in the history books of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty that on the birthday of the Supreme Emperor, the Luoyang order offered auspicious beasts, and the whole country had fun.

How could a good auspicious beast disappear?Zhuangyuan Lang had previously wondered if this auspicious beast was deliberately created to confuse the common people, but these days, seeing that the ancients treated the auspicious beast so devoutly as if they were gods, he believed it from the bottom of his heart.

——Auspicious beasts may be animals or people on alien planets.

Just a language barrier.

The Supreme Emperor drooped his brows and eyes, and remained silent throughout his birthday.

On the other hand, Yan Shu blatantly watched the eyes of the nobles communicating with each other, and a sarcastic smile was drawn on the corner of his mouth.

——Did they think it was 400 years of troubled times?Or when they can manipulate a country, an emperor?dream!

Since Zhou Xu sat at this banquet, he has been quietly looking at the Supreme Emperor.He frowned, the emperor's reaction was not right.

At this time of crisis, according to the temperament of the Supreme Emperor brother, he would definitely say with disdain, "What are auspicious beasts? Can God do anything to me?"

Since he returned to the capital, he was rejected time and time again when he went to visit the Supreme Emperor.

The birthday party broke up unhappy, and all the officials were disgruntled. The emperor issued a seal order, and everyone was in danger.

At night, Zhou Xu watched the Gray Eagle keep turning around, and asked it, "Do you want a companion?" The Gray Eagle responded by flapping its wings.Zhou Xu opened Gray Eagle's cage and fed it a hearty meal.

"Fly, go find it."

Jirui looked helplessly at Zhou Xu's childish behavior, and said, "Grey Eagle is gone, master, how did you get a letter from General Zhou?"

Zhou Xu just smiled and said nothing.

This gray eagle has been with him for a long time, and it is time to leave.

Presumably, Gray Eagle would never be able to serve as his and Zhou Che's messenger from now on.

Since returning to Beijing, I have never received a letter from Zhou Che again.

One day, two days, three days, or nothing.It was only when the officials went to court that their mood gradually eased.

But on the fourth day, Zhou Xu saw that everyone's faces were turning black, and they were fighting with each other, muttering in low voices.

Overnight, all the storytellers in the capital mysteriously talked about the disappearance of the auspicious beast.A rumor is going around.The emperor angered the gods, so the auspicious beast disappeared.

The little emperor's eyes were darkened, and his face was ashen.

However, the tone changed to the tone of the teasing person before the scientific examination, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

"The rumors in the capital, what can you ministers do to stop them?" The little emperor sat on the dragon chair and said leisurely.

Half the officials were terrified.This news has just come out, how could the emperor know.Why did I practice Tai Chi for a long time?

"Anyone who talks about this will be detained." Uncle Zhao Guo said whatever came to his mind.

"Reckless man, I think Uncle Zhao Guo is also a gentleman, why do he act like this. Fangmin's mouth is even worse than Fangchuan." It is rare that the gentle prime minister would reprimand others like this.

"Who has a good opinion?" Rumors are raging, and if nothing is done, it will cause great disaster.

"Start to investigate from the source and let the Luoyang order explain it." Some officials suggested this.

Zhou Xu didn't say a word, he just took a look at what kind of talents there were in the court.

The little emperor looked at those courtiers who had been praised by the little emperor's uncle one by one, and was about to name and ask them one by one.

A person hurried into the hall, and prostrated himself to report: "General Zhou has rebelled, and under the banner of the Qing emperor, he has already occupied three prefectures in the frontier."

All officials are terrified!

The little emperor almost stood up from the dragon chair.

General Zhou is the Baisheng general stationed at the frontier, but he has just defeated the tiger and wolf army of the Yelang Kingdom.

Zhou Xu pulled out several veins in his hands, and something unexpected finally happened.

Zhou Che actually rebelled, that was his twin brother, and that was the person he was most worried about during his lifetime!

Zhou Xu felt pain in his heart, and the restlessness he had been feeling for a while was finally explained.

Song Qi, the number one scholar, also looked dazed. He found that the history he was so proud of and knew was disappearing bit by bit.These things happened in front of him alive, he, a person who loves to study history, didn't know it.

In the whole court, only Yan Shu was calm like a mortal.

He already knew this news.

The three frontier prefectures have long been under the rule of General Zhou.What he didn't know was, why did General Zhou want to rebel, a beast was lost, the emperor would not be able to secure the throne, and the name he played on the side of the Qing Dynasty was not convincing.

Yan Shu raised his head and took a deep look at Zhou Xu. From the shocked and sad expression that flashed across Zhou Xu's face, he seemed to smell something different.

"I report to the emperor that although General Zhou has achieved a lot in battle, he is ambitious. I am willing to kill this person with my own hands." Yan Shu bowed deeply.

"Okay, what Aiqing said really wins my heart. It's rare for you to be sincere."

"I don't know who else is willing to come out?" The little emperor wrote in a loud voice.

The military officers all looked at General Situ.

If General Situ doesn't accept it, they will dare to accept it.

General Situ looked upright, but he was full of embarrassment.If in the past, when the country was in crisis, he must be the vanguard.However, General Zhou is the benefactor of his family, and he does not believe that General Zhou will rebel.

In a dilemma, unable to make a choice.

Those eyes from the military officer were like sharp swords, making him feel like a thorn in his back.

He was forced to kneel down on the ground, "I am willing to sacrifice myself for the country." A soldier has to defend his home and country.

"Okay, General Situ is in command of the entire army, and Yan Shu is the military adviser. Choose a day to fight and strangle the rebellious officials and thieves." Xiao Huang
