As smart as Xiao Chen, how could he not see what the Zhou family was thinking!
Perhaps Chu Yanwu failed to determine the truth because he did not collect comprehensive information.
But Xiao Chen knew that Zhou Tianfu was at the secret guard base. He knew that this guy had long planned to rebel... Now, he was clearly preparing for a fight to the death!
Zhao Jieyu saw Xiao Chen walking in a hurry and asked quickly:
"Did Zhou Tianfu and the others take action?"
Although Zhao Jieyu does not look like a scheming person, as a woman from a family of military commanders, she also knows what it means to seize the opportunity.
Xiao Chen nodded and explained the general matter to Zhao Jieyu:
"Just now."
"The guards of the Zhou family went to the palace and said that Zhou Tianfu is seriously ill..."
Speaking of this, Zhao Jieyu frowned:
"Zhou Tianfu has always been in good health... I was able to compete with you in Chaoshang a few days ago, so why did he suddenly become seriously ill?"
Xiao Chen nodded: "This is also something wrong."
"In addition, he also sent the commander of the bodyguards to tell the emperor that he wanted to be interviewed in person before he died, and hoped that the emperor would grant his request!"
After hearing this, Zhao Jieyu felt something was wrong.
And Xiao Chen also said immediately:
"The emperor refused the first time. The second time, hundreds of members of the Zhou family faced the palace and cried in mourning. They forced the emperor to agree to allow Zhou Tianfu to enter the palace to meet the saint!"
Zhao Jieyu sneered at this time: "What is this? Sima Zhao's heart is known to everyone on the road!"
"I think Zhou Tianfu just wants to rebel!"
However, Zhao Jieyu also had more expectations in her heart.
If they can find the right time this time and successfully overthrow the Zhou family, then the Zhou family will really die without a burial place...
After all, rebellion is a serious crime against the Nine Clans!
Xiao Chen nodded: "That's true, so I came to find you."
When Zhao Jieyu heard this, her heart moved slightly, and she turned to ask:
"What do you need me to do?"
There was a hint of joking in Xiao Chen's eyes: "The Zhou family is actually going to rebel. Madam, you can go to the clan mansion to wait at this time!"
What he meant was quite obvious.
Zhao Jieyu's heart moved, and the corner of her mouth curved: "Eunuch Xiao means that as long as the Zhou family dares to rebel, I will kill Concubine Rong!"
When she said this, Zhao Jieyu's eyes seemed to be lit with flames.
She already hated Concubine Rong, and wished that Concubine Rong would die in her own hands!
Xiao Chen nodded and said with a smile: "That's right!"
"You just need to control the timing..."
There was a trace of thought between Zhao Jieyu's eyebrows: "Actually, if you really want to seize the opportunity, the Zhao family can also get involved!"
Zhao Jieyu will naturally not forget her natal family.
What's more, the Zhao family really wants to take advantage of this matter.
Xiao Chen laughed and said, "Okay."
"I was just about to say that I want to give you the Zhao family a big gift!"
Zhao Jieyu's thoughts changed and she was just about to speak when she heard Xiao Chen explain: "Actually, we can't take care of the clan mansion, but let me think about it. If there is chaos in the palace, will anyone be able to save it?" Concubine Rong?"
Zhao Jieyu nodded quickly: "Of course I want to save her."
Xiao Chen said with a smile: "In this case, we will have a chance!"
"Since someone wants to save Concubine Rong, you can send someone to guard her there!"
"Just come and catch the turtle in an urn!"
Zhao Jieyu's eyes lit up and she was convinced:
"You're right."
"Besides, I have a natural advantage. I can mobilize some people from the Zhao family to come over..."
Xiao Chen also nodded and echoed:
"Yes, if your Zhao family can protect the clan's mansion and kill the demon concubine, you can be considered as participating in the suppression of the rebellion."
"At that time, the emperor will definitely reward your Zhao family!"
Zhao Jieyu didn't think the emperor's reward was that important.
The most important thing is that the Zhou family and the demon concubine are a disaster, and they have even become enemies with the Zhao family.
If they don't die, they won't feel at ease!
So Zhao Jieyu nodded immediately: "You're right, it's time for me to get ready!"
"but……"
Having said this, Zhao Jieyu paused again and asked tentatively: "In what capacity should I go, or for what reason should I go to the clan mansion?"
Although Zhao Jieyu was Jieyu, to be honest, she couldn't leave the palace at will, let alone lead the soldiers to the clan mansion.
After Xiao Chen thought for a while, he said:
"So be it."
"You lead several groups of soldiers dressed as actors and go to the clan mansion,"
"If anyone asks about it, just say that you were worried about Concubine Rong being lonely, so you sent some actors to sing for her, and then you stayed there to prevent any accidents."
Xiao Chen knew that Zhao Jieyu was a sixth-grade master who was proficient in various secret techniques.
An ordinary seventh-grade master probably wouldn't be able to do anything to her.
If she stays in the Zongren Mansion, she can also play the role of a needle that calms the sea.
Zhao Jieyu also smiled and said: "Okay, this reason is pretty good..."
But she frowned again: "But what if they ask me if I have the emperor's order?"
Xiao Chen smiled mysteriously and took out another token and handed it to Zhao Jieyu: "This is a palace order I got earlier."
"You can use it to fool the people in the clan mansion. If that doesn't work, just tell me my name."
Xiao Chen had worked in the Zongren Mansion before, so he was somewhat authoritative.
Zhao Jieyu nodded and took the palace order.
Seeing that Xiao Chen seemed to be planning to leave, Zhao Jieyu had sadness in her eyes again and called out to Xiao Chen:
"Wait a moment, Xiao Chen!"
When Xiao Chen heard this, he turned around and looked.
I saw Zhao Jieyu's heroic face full of worries, and she said seriously
"I'm going through hardships here, but I hope you'll be safe!"
Xiao Chen felt warm in his heart and turned around again, hugging Zhao Jieyu's waist.
There was a little shame in Zhao Jieyu's eyes, but there was no rejection.
Xiao Chen leaned down and kissed her forehead:
"Don't worry, even if it's just for you, I should live a long life."
"I will never put my own life and death at risk."
Xiao Chen's words were indeed sincere.
After all, Zhao Jieyu was beautiful, and he was Zhao Jieyu's first man. How could he be willing to give up his gentle hometown and go to hell?
Zhao Jieyu was very moved when she heard this, and she nodded, her eyes gradually becoming more decisive.
Xiao Chen glanced at Zhao Jieyu for the last time, then swayed and drifted away.
When Xiao Chen's figure disappeared completely, Zhao Jieyu's eyebrows flashed with a trace of fierceness.
She called for the female officer: "Give me my order..."
After sending someone to contact the Zhao family, Zhao Jieyu also took out a dusty wooden box, took out the set of soft gold silk armor that had not been worn for a long time, and put it on inside the palace clothes.
At this time, she had lost all weakness in her body and was like a female war goddess.
