Chapter 1212: The Zhou Family’s Conspiracy

Translator: Lonelytree

Zhou family

Zhou Zhenlin and Zhou Dehong were having a secret discussion in the study.

Zhou Zhenlin said with a serious expression,” Hong t er, His Majesty sneaked out of the palace this time and was actually escorted back by Jiang Zhennan. It’s obvious that His Majesty knows where Jiang Zhennan has been staying for the past six months. That was why he went to look for Jiang Zhennan as soon as he left the palace!”

Zhou Dehong had the same guess. He nodded and said,” Father, I have the same guess!”

He thought for a moment and said,” According to what I’ve investigated, I’m very sure that Jiang Zhennan is very likely hiding in a small village called Lin Family Village. And when His Majesty leaves the palace, it’s obvious that he’s heading for Lin Family Village!’

It could be said that Zhou Dehong had guessed the truth!

Zhou Zhenlin frowned and said seriously,” In that case, is there something magical about this Lin Family Village that made General Jiang Zhennan and His Majesty go there? Did Hong ‘er find out?”

“No!” Zhou Dehong shook his head and said,” All the people sent to investigate the Lin Family Village have disappeared! They were either dead or hidden by someone! The only person who had the ability to stop the Zhou family was the Emperor! Moreover, the other royal families had never paid attention to the Lin Family Village. Thus, it could only be the Emperor’s doing!’

Hearing this answer, Zhou Zhenlin frowned even more.

Ever since Noble Consort Zhou and the Third Prince Yuwen Feiye had told them about the Lin Family Village, they had always felt that the Lin Family Village was their huge secret to discover.

However, when they wanted to explore, they were stopped by someone, leaving them helpless!

Zhou Zhenlin said,” Lin Family Village, Lin Family Village, what exactly is this Lin Family Village? Why were the Great General and His Majesty so interested in this place?

Zhou Dehong thought for a moment and said,” Father, according to our previous investigation, Jiang Zhennan’s fiancée is Liu Yichen’s younger sister, the eldest daughter of Willow Villa. Moreover, this eldest daughter’s health is not good, so she was placed in the Lin Family Village. Therefore, I felt that it was understandable for Jiang Zhennan to protect his fiancée. However, it was His Majesty’s behavior that made me puzzled!”

If Jiang Zhennan’s fiancée were really in the care of the Lin Family Village, it would be a good thing that no one could find out about the Lin Family Village.

However, there was no need for His Majesty to interfere.

Therefore, the reason why His Majesty did this was definitely not because of Jiang Zhennan’s fiancée but for other reasons.

It was precisely this reason that was the key to their investigation!

Zhou Zhenlin waved his hand and said,” We still have to continue investigating the Lin Family Village, but we must be careful!” He wanted to see what kind of secret the Lin Family Village had that made the Emperor treat it so seriously.

‘Yes, Father!” Zhou Dehong replied respectfully.

“I heard that His Majesty brought the princes and grand princes, as well as the civil and military officials of the court, to the Nanyuan Manor today?” Zhou Zhenlin asked doubtfully.

‘Yes, Father!” Zhou Dehong replied.

“Did you find anything?” Ever since the imperial edict was issued, the Nanyuan Manor had always been a mysterious place for the people of the capital. No matter how many forces tried to explore it, it ended in vain!

Now that His Majesty had suddenly made such a move, everyone was curious and puzzled.

Zhou Dehong thought for a moment and said very seriously, “A large area of rice has been planted there. Moreover, according to estimates, the yield of this rice has reached seven stones per mu!”

“What?” Zhou Zhenlin said in surprise,” Such a high yield?”

When the farmers’ harvests were low, and even food and clothing were the top priority for the imperial court, the high yield of seven stones per mu was simply a miracle. It was something that would help the emperor solve the difficulty of the common people.

“Therefore, I believe that His Majesty is leading the civil and military officials of the imperial court to the Nanyuan Manor to tell them that the problem of food and clothing for the people can be solved!” Zhou Dehong voiced out his guess.

“No, we can’t let him succeed!” Zhou Zhenlin thought for a moment and said resolutely,” Such a great achievement must not be given to him!” Such contribution could only be attributed to the Third Prince or the Zhou family. Zhou Zhenlin had such thoughts.

Zhou Dehong’s idea was the same as Zhou Zhenlin’s.

However, his thoughts were even more ambitious. That was, this great achievement must be kept on him only. As for how he was going to do that, he was still planning.

Zhou Dehong quietly observed his father’s expression and asked carefully,” Father, what should we do now?

Zhou Zhenlin pondered for a moment and asked,” Is there still no news from Yan Sha Pavilion about the Divine Illusion?

Zhou Dehong said)” Father, there’s already news. They had already contacted a

Diviner on the Southern Border. Soon, they would be able to buy the Divine Illusion from that Diviner!”

Zhou Zhenlin thought about it and immediately instructed Zhou Dehong,”

Hong ‘er, find out how long Jiang Zhennan will stay in Beijing this time.”

Zhou Dehong was shocked. He widened his eyes and asked,” Father, what do you mean?

Zhou Zhenlin’s aged eyes flashed with malice, and his expression became extremely vicious as he said,” We have to speed up our actions! Therefore, the Divine Illusion had to be done while Jiang Zhennan was in Beijing! Especially after His Majesty led all the officials to the Nanyuan Manor, he gave us the best opportunity!’

Zhou Dehong’s eyes lit up. He quickly understood what Zhou Zhenlin meant.” Yes, Father! His son would definitely get his hands on that Divine Illusion as soon as possible!”

The I ‘ Divine Illusion ” could control people’s will. His Majesty’s recent movement provided them with the best opportunity to make a move.

He lowered his head. His originally simple and honest face revealed great ambition and ambition.

At night, in a courtyard of the Zhengguo Duke’s estate.

Wen Yujing looked at the figure standing on the wall, her sharp eyes full of vigilance. She asked,” What’s the matter?”

The figure on the wall said,” Master came over and asked me to remind you not to forget your mission!”

Wen Yujing was angered by the attitude of the person on the wall and immediately said angrily,” I’m only cooperating with your master, not a subordinate like you. Please understand the situation!”

The figure sneered, his tone clearly filled with contempt. He said,” Alright, I understand, the wife of the Zhengguo Duke!”

Then, he threw something down and said,” Take this!”

Wen Yujing asked in confusion,” What is this?”

He said,” Divine Illusion! Madam, Master wanted me to tell you to make good use of Jiang Zhennan’s time in the capital and, at the same time, make use of

Yuwen Ling!’

Wen Yujing asked suspiciously,” Yuwen Ling?” That was exactly her plan.

“I’m just reminding you on behalf of my master. Madam is so smart, so she should know what to do!”As he spoke, the black shadow used his qinggong and flew away!

Wen Yujing held the blue bottle with a dark expression on her face!
