During the chaos in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, several people's performance was extremely eye-catching, and Zhang Jiaquan was one of them.

Originally, according to Zhang Jiaquan's strategy, he wanted to win steadily, and let the chaos ferment first, so that others could fight to the death, and it would not be too late to send troops after raising their strength.

But the plan cannot keep up with the changes. The butcher knives of the four dynasties will be aimed at the Eastern Zhou Dynasty at any time, especially once the iron hooves move eastward, because of a bastard, Wei Yudao and Fengbeidao will be targeted first.

So the Zhang family also became fierce. After being fierce, he made people know why he was one of the Jiedu governors whom the Emperor of Eastern Zhou was most afraid of during his lifetime.

In just half a year, the territory of Weiyu Road continued to expand, with Fengbei Road as the rear support, and from the south, it ran through three parts of the three sections, including Shunjie Road, Jiangbei Road, and Jiangnan Road. Judging from the shape of the map, it formed a shape similar to a bow and arrow.

Zhang Jiaquan's troops were also expanding in the chaos, attracting male soldiers to join the army with their generous soldiers and using their troops to pay taxes, which made the army's expansion speed extremely astonishing, and other governors followed suit.

In addition, Zhang Jiaquan also advocated the use of war to support the war. Due to time limitations, the recruits only practiced for a few months and then pulled them to the battlefield. At first, they were responsible for the cleaning and cleaning work, and then gradually advanced until they fought.

Although the casualties were extremely serious, the so-called big waves washed away the sand and the heavy casualties also made the recruits quickly lose their immature appearance. Under the baptism of blood and fire, their combat effectiveness made a huge leap.

This move has been mixed in various places, and most of the people under their rule have their families joined the army, which inevitably aroused public grievances. However, the Zhang family ignored it.

He also wants to be a beloved hero. After all, the hearts of the people are the foundation. But he always does extraordinary things, not to mention the hearts of the people, he only needs to be properly promoted and brainwashed, and supplemented with actual interests, and can be reversed soon.

The most urgent task now is to immediately open up the southward area and prepare yourself for a retreat so that you can be at ease in the chaos.

Fortunately, this goal is about to be achieved!

In the study, Zhang Jiaquan, who was much older and haggard, looked at the map hanging on the wall and became rarely excited...

External pressure caused the unrivaled unity of the riots and their combat effectiveness to double. In addition, the Eastern Family began to sway and made other plans, which led to the territory of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty shrinking at an astonishing speed.

In just one year, there were only six paths including Feihuangdao, Yunxiangdao, Tianxingdao and other thirty-two paths left. Countless people in the world were shocked by it, as if they had seen a dynasty shaking and about to collapse.

"puff!"

In the room of Feihukou Pavilion, the Eighth Prince squirted out blood, and he fell backwards, his face pale and as if he was so angry. When he heard the movement, Mu Zichen rushed into the room, helped the Eighth Prince up, and pushed the palace to rush over the blood.

Finally, the Eighth Prince did not wipe the blood from the corner of his mouth, pushed Mu Zichen away, staggered into the yard in a single dress, letting the cold wind blow, looking at the east, and laughed bitterly, "Uncle Emperor, the foundation of our Mu clan is almost over!"

Mu Zichen behind him was shocked.

No matter how obsessed with martial arts and ignored external affairs, he knew the weight of this sentence. He showed sadness and confusion on his face and murmured, "Didn't you say that the current situation is beneficial to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, why did it become like this?"

The Eighth Prince smiled again, accompanied by a few coughs, blood poured out of his mouth again, dyeing the collar of his chest red.

His smile was filled with indescribable anger and hatred, his face was twisted, and his fingers roared Dongfang, "Yes, why did it become like this? They are all those short-sighted fools, those selfish brainless worms!

While I was away, I thought I could control the government. Hahaha, for the sake of power, I raided each other and calculated each other, and even planned to be on the front line army. How stupid, how should I kill it!!

I hate it so much, I hate it. I hate it when I was ruthless. If I had known that those people were so stupid, I should have killed them all, so that I would not have lost the foundation of my Mu clan to this extent!

This king is a sinner of the Mu clan, a sinner forever. I have no face to see the emperor again, and I will see my ancestors and ancestors again, and I will…”

The anger and hatred in his heart could not be relieved, and the Eighth Prince sprayed out another mouthful of blood. When he leaned back, he was supported by Mu Zichen.

Mu Zichen lowered his head and saw that this nephew who had always paid attention to image had disheveled hair, with white hair sticking to his face, and his chest was covered in blood. His handsome face was extremely distorted and ferocious, and his heart trembled wildly.

The Eighth Prince's current appearance made Mu Zichen suspect that if the traitor in the other party's mouth appeared here, he would probably be able to bite down and chew the human flesh piece by piece!

"It has happened, and getting angry is useless. Why bother to make things difficult for yourself?" Mu Zichen couldn't help but persuade.

The Eighth Prince breathed heavily, without any emotion in his voice. "Uncle Emperor really has a good temper and kind heart. No wonder he was locked up by the Emperor for decades, and his essence was sucked away from his body. He still did not take his anger on me. Without the Emperor, you are afraid that you will almost become a legendary master, right?"

This obvious irony made Mu Zichen's face change suddenly. Being plotted by the Emperor of Eastern Zhou was the most heartbreaking thing in his life, and the other party even had to sprinkle salt on the wound.

Though thinking about the other party's situation, Mu Zichen reluctantly said, "The so-called foundation, the world is nothing but something outside the body, just passing by. As powerful as the Xuanping Dynasty, it has only existed for more than 800 years. Why should you be persistent? In life, pursuing your own limits and exploring the mysteries of the universe is not much more interesting than loving the power and enjoying some false prosperity?"

The Eighth Prince pushed the other party away, trembling with anger, "The Emperor's words are too disappointing! You are also a sinner. You are just a stunning skill, but you don't contribute to the family. You are just thinking about the peak of martial arts. What are you going to meet the ancestors and sects?"

Mu Zichen was not angry and said melancholy, "You are too tired to live. You have put shackles on yourself. How do you know what the ancestors and clans think?"

"You..." The Eighth Prince's face turned red and he vomited another mouthful of blood, as if he was about to die of anger. Mu Zichen was afraid of getting angry, so he had to come forward to heal him and said that he would not fight with him.

The Eighth Prince gasped, his eyes gradually became crazy. "Uncle Emperor, if you are still descendants of the Mu family, you shouldn't continue to do anything and watch the East Zhou Jiye be swallowed up by the thieves."

Mu Zichen was helpless and said, "I don't want to do it either, but now that we are trapped here, what can we do?"

As if just waiting for this sentence, the Eighth Prince slowly approached him and whispered but firmly, "Some! Now is the time for the emperor to work hard. For the sake of the Mu royal family, I would like to take the emperor away from here. As long as I return to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, I will definitely be able to turn the tide!"

What? Mu Zichen suspected that the nephew was crazy, but the other party's expression was terrible, and the calmness was a bit crazy, which made him feel at a loss, but he was inexplicably unable to speak.

He could see that this matter was the only motivation for the nephew to survive. If he refused again, the other party would probably be helpless.

Mu Zichen said bitterly, "Flying Waterfall Pavilion has strict defenses, and there are many experts. If I leave alone, there may be a way, but I'm afraid I won't be able to take you with me."

"Okay." A ferocious sneer appeared on the corner of the Eighth Prince's mouth. "This time the chaos army was united unprecedentedly, hehehe, people from the four dynasties probably didn't expect that my ministers from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty were so useless and defeated so quickly!

Do you think they are not in a hurry? Once the court is destroyed, people from the four major dynasties want to divide the land of our Eastern Zhou Dynasty, they will face crazy resistance from the chaotic army. How can the court be at ease?

But those hypocritical guys can't speak now! Two dead fathers can't leave their father's affairs alone and expand their territory, right? They can't eat themselves, and they won't let Nanwu and Xichu eat them, so the situation is still stagnant.

But if there is one person who can break the deadlock, this person is my king. Uncle, do you believe it or not? If we can easily receive news from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, we will be rewarded by the new emperor of Zhongzhou.

So as long as I escape, Zhongzhou, Northern Qi, Southern Wu and Western Chu, none of them will really stop me, and at most they will do it. With the emperor's peerless martial arts, it will be easy to rush back to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty with my nephew!"

Mu Zichen widened his eyes and couldn't speak for a long time.

It was night, the stars were cold.

A figure was carrying a man on his back and rushed out of the waterfall pavilion at the speed of lightning and flashing. Along the way, he encountered interference from a palace guard and a large army, but he was easily avoided by this person.

Other super experts in Feihu Pavilion were furious and set out to chase after him. Unfortunately, they were a beat slower reaction. In addition, they were also suspects now and were not allowed to stay away from Feihu Pavilion. They had to retreat helplessly under the layers of encirclement of the Zhongzhou army.

Afterwards, the army of Zhongzhou thoroughly investigated the Feihu Pavilion and found out that the person who escaped was Mu Zichen and the Eighth Prince of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.

When the news came out, the emperors of all dynasties were furious. The new emperor of Zhongzhou even issued orders to search and capture the Eight Kings of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty at all costs, and would never allow any suspect who poisoned the late emperor to leave...

"Running?" Zhuo Mufeng was shocked when he heard that the Eighth Prince escaped from the Waterfall Pavilion. Did the Zhongzhou army eat shit? That way, it would make people run away? But then he felt something was wrong.

Seeing Lou Linxuan smiling, Zhuo Mufeng suddenly realized, "So that's it. Those people deliberately did not want to see the Eastern Zhou Dynasty completely fall into the hands of the rioters, so they put the people back.

But I don’t understand. Isn’t it better for them to conceal the news? Now it is revealed that it is entirely to increase the difficulty for the Eighth Prince to escape back to the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. The governors from all over the country are not vegetarians.”

After Lou Linxuan took one hand, he slammed the fan with the other hand and said, "For the sake of reputation. They cannot guarantee that there are no traitors in the Flying Waterfall Pavilion. If they hide it and are exposed, the two new emperors cannot explain it clearly, so they simply confess and express their attitude."

Zhuo Mufeng laughed and said, "It seems that they are also scared by the cloaked people! They must have seen that the rumors in Zhongzhou, Northern Qi, Southern Wu and Western Chu, including the murder of the Eastern Zhou courts, were all behind the scenes, but they could not find them out now.

Uncle Lou, do you think we should help them? I always let the cloaked man hide behind and plot against others. It really makes people feel unhappy, and it is time to cause some trouble for him."

Lou Linxuan laughed and said, "Don't worry, son-in-law, Lou has already arranged it. But the cloaked man cannot suspect us. Some things need to be handled, and it will take some time."

"Okay, Uncle Lou is Uncle Lou!" Zhuo Mufeng exclaimed.
