But if the floods in Jiangbei are dealt with well, it will be a good thing for his political achievements.

But if he doesn't do it well, he will have no chance of rising in this life.

If compared, the capital city is now in dire straits waiting to be revitalized, so of course the capital city is the best.

Pei Xuan could only admit that he was unlucky.

Three days later.

The new emperor ascended the throne.

Zhou Jinghan put on his dragon robe and sat in the position where everyone was paying attention.

At this moment, his heart seemed to be completely different from before.

In the past, he knew that he had no capital to compete with his brothers, and his heart naturally belonged to the great mountains and rivers.

He was shocked even when he learned about the capital.

Even when the Eighth Emperor brother said that he would give him the throne, he felt uneasy and it was too unreal.

In the past few days, Zhou Jingxuan had been assisting him in the court, but he didn't feel much about it. Most of the decisions were made by Zhou Jingxuan.

But his mood was completely different at this time. He was sitting in a high position, looking at the people on the ground prostrating themselves.

He felt indescribable excitement and surging in his heart, and in an instant he suddenly understood why so many people wanted to sit in this position.

The new emperor ascended the throne and everything settled.

King Cheng saw that the overall situation had been decided. Although he was unwilling to do so, he still received the reward and returned to his fiefdom.

He restrained him, and Zhou Jingxuan naturally did not care about him leading his troops to leave the fiefdom without permission.

King Cheng's ability to survive among so many princes at that time proved that he was indeed not stupid.

He knew that if he had been impulsive at that time, he would be the mantis now, and Zhou Jingxuan would be the oriole.

Not to mention that he can still go back intact now, but he might have died in the palace incident long ago.

King Cheng glanced at the palace with some reluctance. He felt that it was probably because he had no fate with that position.

Every time it's just a little bit different.

In fact, he was fully prepared that night.

Zhou Chen thought how could it be possible to capture him so easily? He was just sent up by himself. If there were no accidents, his troops would soon attack from outside the capital.

When everyone is dead, the throne will naturally only be inherited by him.

But after all the calculations, he missed Zhou Jingxuan, and he didn't die.

Every time he thought about that night, he was sweating.

He often speculated whether the news Jiang Si deliberately released to him was just to kill two birds with one stone and coax him to go to the capital to do something to get rid of him.

Every time he thought about it, he felt that nothing could be more poisonous than a woman's heart.

He had to leave the capital quickly.

King Cheng had only been out of the capital for an hour when he was blocked by a peasant woman.

King Cheng's guard immediately frowned and raised his sword to kill the peasant woman. The peasant woman shouted with fear on her face: "It was a lady who gave me a piece of gold and asked me to give you this letter."

"Don't kill me, I'm also here to help others pass messages."

The woman fell to the ground with a look of horror on her face, holding a letter tightly in her hand.

King Cheng glanced at it and frowned: "Bring the letter to me."

The guard immediately took the letter from the woman's hand. King Cheng opened the letter and glanced at it. His brows knit together tightly. The more he looked down, the more satisfied he looked.

Then he raised his head and laughed: "God help me!"

He put the letter away and then said loudly: "Give this woman a piece of gold."

No one noticed the interludes on the road to becoming a king.

Wangfu.

Jiang Si was pruning flowers in the courtyard, and the people around her said softly: "The Crown Princess has been in Hanguang Temple during this period and has not gone out."

"I go to the temple to worship Buddha every day. There doesn't seem to be anything wrong."

Jiang Si paused in watering the flowers and asked casually: "Is there any more?"

An Er continued: "She seems to have really looked away. My subordinates found out that she used all the money she earned from her shop to build a medical clinic and charity hall."

"I heard that she wanted to accumulate blessings for the child in her belly."

After An Er finished speaking, Jiang Si slowly put down the things in her hands.

An Er glanced at Jiang Si and wondered what his princess was thinking, and asked cautiously: "Are you still looking at the princess?"

Jiang Si looked up, the sun was a little bright, and she covered her forehead with her hands: "If someone else is watching, tell me if there is anything wrong."

An Er agreed, and when he saw that Jiang Si didn't give any other instructions, he turned around and left.

He was extremely puzzled. His Royal Highness was gone. Why did the princess care so much about the prince?

The Crown Princess is just a prostitute, and her husband is dead and has no one to rely on, so there is nothing to be afraid of.

After An Er left, Jiang Si took out the scissors on one side and started pruning the flower branches.

There was something absent-minded in my heart.

She didn't know if she was overthinking it, but she always felt that something was wrong with Jiang Yue being too calm.

She was a little confused, could Jiang Yue really have no desires?

If this was really the case, she would not have killed Zhou Chenshi herself.

Anyway, she has his child in her belly. As long as she makes some use of it, Zhou Chenshi and the late Queen will protect her.

How could she be so reticent for someone who didn't love her.

Jiang Si felt a little confused. She felt that Zhou Chenshi was obviously dead, but she felt that she could not see clearly.

In the palace, Mencius came to say goodbye. Now that he has stabilized, he will naturally return to Yicheng.

The troops brought by Zhou Jingxuan at that time were from Liangping Pass and Yicheng.

At this time they should also return to their original place.

The storm seemed to have calmed down completely.

Zhou Jinghan also started to take advantage.

Everything seemed to be settled.

Calm and peaceful.

Three days later.

News came from Jiangbei that Pei Xuan had been killed.

Pei Xuan probably knew that something would happen to him, so he wrote down the local situation in advance, and told his attendants to hurry up and send the letter to the capital if something happened to him.

If God opens his eyes and this letter is delivered in time, maybe he can survive.

Pei Xuan's letter was handed over, and Zhou Jinghan became furious after looking at it for a moment.

Then he handed the letter to Zhou Jingxuan: "Do those people in Jiangbei really think that I am a fool?"

"Otherwise, how about they become their own country?!"

Zhou Jingxuan took the letter and took a look at it, with a cold look on his face.

Pei Xuan clearly recorded in his letter that the relationship in Jiangbei was complicated.

Jiangbei is not a town, but the towns in that area, collectively called Jiangbei.

The floods in Jiangbei area were severe and many people were killed or injured. However, the prominent families in Jiangbei took advantage of this time to make money.

When Pei Xuan passed by, they first tried to win over him, but when they found out that Pei Xuan was not willing to join them, their faces changed instantly.

The influence of the noble families in Jiangbei is criss-crossed, and the noble families unite together and have become the local emperors there.

After Pei Xuan broke up with them, he deliberately made trouble for Pei Xuan everywhere and even beat him arrogantly.

He even threatened to let Pei Xuan die in Jiangbei.

Pei Xuan's attendant knelt on the ground with red eyes: "My lord was pushed into the water by them. The flood was too strong. If you fall, you will never be seen again!"
