From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

After learning that the Virgin Sister was in distress, and the increasingly critical situation on the ocean, Zhou Yuan was eager to return home.

He first found Madam Xuesang and talked about the gains from this wedding.

For Zhou Yuan, he was just playing, but for Madam Xuesang and the bigwigs in Yining City, the wedding of the Queenie family was the best opportunity to observe the wind direction and get their attitudes.

Madam Xuesang had been in the political vortex for so many years, so she naturally had her own methods.

So she replied: "I have met everyone I should have met, some are honest, some are dishonest, but the situation is generally stable."

"Now the Western Region is roughly divided into four factions. The first is those who recognize the changes in the Western Region and think that this is a good direction and trend, and are willing to move forward with us."

"Second, the remnants of the old era still have unrealistic ideas and are secretly accumulating strength, trying to win over military generals and trying to rescue Huo Jia. But they are too weak now to pose a threat. The overall situation has been determined, and they are destined to be completely eradicated."

"Third, the fence-sitters, they only want glory and wealth, and at the node of the new era, they hope to find more power and more wealth."

"Fourth, the group of people who were loyal to the eldest prince before are now active and hope to help the eldest prince gain more power power, so as to plan big things in the future. "

Speaking of this, she smiled gently and said, "The situation is still complicated, but it is under control. Give me some time. At most half a year, the situation in the Western Region will be completely stable."

"It's just that the eldest prince...his power is not easy to eradicate."

Zhou Yuan shook his head and said, "The Western Region is a multi-ethnic settlement, and it needs military force to suppress it. This is the foundation of peace. At present, we all need Azati. This is the reason for his existence."

"As for what path he wants to take and what fate he wants to decide, it depends on him."

Mrs. Xuesang said, "Then I will do my part."

Zhou Yuan said, "Okay, I feel relieved that you are in the Western Region. It's time to leave."

He quickly found the busy Queenie and asked about the last thing.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Queenie said solemnly: "Your Highness, the jewelry you need is already being selected. The people under my command are looking for it. The main thing is to highlight the exquisiteness, meticulousness and uniqueness, with the style of the Western Regions, and rare materials. It will take at most three or four days to select them all."

"Three or four days..."

Zhou Yuan frowned and said in a deep voice: "It's a bit long, I'm in a hurry to leave."

Quinie smiled and said: "There is another piece of news, which I mentioned to the prince before. We found the peerless snow lotus."

"Snow lotus? What effect does it have?"

Zhou Yuan became interested.

Queenie said, "I don't quite understand, but I heard from the master in Madam Xuesang's house that snow lotus is a divine object that can heal injuries to the human body's foundation."

Zhou Yuan's heart moved, and he lowered his voice and asked, "Where is it?"

Queenie glanced at Zhou Yuan and said, "The top of Tianshan Mountain, the iron peak snow wall."

He sighed and said, "This kind of peerless divine object grows in the most dangerous place and cannot be picked by human power. Once there was an old monk from the snowy area. He was said to be a living arhat with a golden body to protect him. He went up the mountain three times within a month and failed."

"The peak of Tianshan Mountain is called 'Iron Mountain' by us, which means that only people like steel can really climb up."

Zhou Yuan nodded slowly and said, "I'll wait for news about your jewelry."

After Queenie left, he fell into deep thought.

Peerless snow lotus? Has the effect of restoring the foundation?

When I first came to the Western Regions, the old woman in Yier Manor said that it could even cure Chenxi's oral disease.

Chenxi no longer needs those things, but... but someone needs them.

The eldest sister has been on the throne for more than ten years. She has worked hard for the world and has been working hard. Her foundation has been damaged.

She is a genius. She has reached a very high level in just a few years of martial arts, but she has been completely abandoned after ascending the throne. The foundation of her body is almost exhausted. If it weren't for dual cultivation, I'm afraid she would have fallen down long ago.

The Great Jin Dynasty has a lot of things to be rebuilt, and the country is still small. She has to persist for at least ten years. It's more painful to ask her to retreat than to kill her.

How can she bear it if her body doesn't recover?

Tieshan, Zhou Yuan wants to try.

"My lord, why bother?"

In the early morning, Guan Lu whispered: "I am not unfaithful, but this matter is too dangerous! Even Bayan Luohan almost died in the avalanche. Why do you take the risk? The Great Jin Dynasty can't do without you!"

If he told others, he would definitely be severely rejected. Zhou Yuan didn't dare to speak, so he could only choose to tell Guan Lu.

Guan Lu's answer was not surprising.

Zhou Yuan nodded and said, "It is indeed dangerous. I have also considered this."

"But... Guan Lu... why do we haveToday? Why is the Jin Dynasty today? "

"There are many reasons. We worked hard, we put in a lot of effort, countless soldiers sacrificed, countless people dedicated..."

"But is it really not your majesty's contribution?"

Guan Lu lowered his head and was silent.

Zhou Yuan said: "Master Zhuang once said to me that if it weren't for your majesty, the Jin Dynasty wouldn't have waited for me to grow up."

"In fact, I know clearly and agree with this statement. If it was Prince Fu who succeeded to the throne, or Prince Jing, no matter which prince, they would have collapsed the Jin Dynasty in three to five years at most."

"Under internal and external troubles, only your majesty stood up and stabilized the overall situation, and took on countless infamy."

"She did take many wrong paths and made many wrong decisions, but there is no doubt that she has made contributions."

"So many days and nights, sleepless, and exhausted her body. It's not just talk. "

Guan Lu said solemnly: "My lord is right, I agree. If it weren't for your majesty, any other emperor would have ended up fighting to the death with us. Only your majesty tolerated us and gave us the opportunity to change the world."

Zhou Yuan laughed and said softly: "She has the world in her heart, and the people of the world have Empress Zhao Jing in their hearts, but how many people have Guan Miaoshan in their hearts?"

"I have her in my heart, and I have to do something for her."

"Is this reason enough?"

Guan Lu stood up straight, then bowed and said: "Enough, my lord is a man of temperament, and because of this, there is today's Jin Dynasty."

"I support my lord to do it, and I will also rush to the southeast, by the waves of the sea, waiting for my lord to come."

"When the time comes, we will fight the raging sea again, and completely fight for the world of Jin Dynasty, and create a peace for all eternity!"

Zhou Yuan said: "First fight the mountains, then fight the sea, life should be like this, happy! "

Guan Lu smiled and said, "There is a home in my heart, and there is also the world. This is the joy of the lord."

He stood up and said with emotion, "My lord, I will leave now. See you in the sea."

"See you in the sea!"

Zhou Yuan looked at Guan Lu's back and his mood gradually became cheerful.

It was like having a drink with his best brother after encountering troubles. There was no more sorrow in his heart, only the passion to rush forward.

"From Baiyun Mountain to now, in the past few years, you have always given me things, big sister."

"I don't know how many tributes from the palace have been moved home, and the inexplicable rewards are countless."

"You always say that I give you more things, but I know that they are not for you, but for Empress Zhaojing."

"If it were any other emperor, I would do the same."

"I owe gifts to many people."

"I owe you too."

"I have never given you anything. "

Zhou Yuan looked towards the north. He wanted to pick the snow lotus and give it to his senior sister.

She would be happy.

In her life, she had too many toil and worries, but too few happy moments.
