Now, in the Government Palace.

Surrounded by several soldiers, Zhou Tianfu came to the Government Affairs Hall.

Chu Yanwu sat on the chair in the middle, surrounded by fruits and a dozen masters.

Seeing Zhou Tianfu finally arrived, Chu Yanwu's eyes became extremely cold.

He waved his hand again and said to the soldiers:

"Get out of the way first!"

The soldiers stepped aside one after another, but they still stood ready to guard against any surprises on Zhou Tianfu's side... As for Guo Guo and other Ouchi masters, they were also ready to attack and defend against the enemy at any time.

And now, Zhou Tianfu and Chu Yanwu, the monarch and his ministers, met for the first time without being unequal.

Zhou Tianfu's waist was straight, like a javelin. Chu Yanwu, who was sitting opposite him on the dragon chair, did not ask Zhou Tianfu to kneel down to pay homage.

Because Chu Yanwu knew that it was no longer necessary.

"Zhou Tianfu..."

And the look in his eyes when he looked at Zhou Tianfu became more and more complicated.

In the beginning, he was angry and hating, but now, he is more puzzled and confused.

How could I feel sorry for Zhou Tianfu?

Chu Yanwu sighed and asked again:

"Zhou Tianfu, I really don't understand why you want to rebel..."

When he first came to the throne, Zhou Tianfu helped Chu Yanwu take control of power, and Chu Yanwu really believed that Zhou Tianfu would be his minister.

However, as Zhou Tianfu's ambition expanded, Chu Yanwu gradually realized that he could not control him.

But now, Zhou Tianfu's rebellion has made Chu Yanwu even more resentful and confused.

Obviously I gave him enough authority and wealth.

After a pause, Chu Yanwu asked again:

"Is it because I didn't give you wealth or glory?"

"Why betray my trust in you?"

It's just because I didn't give him enough authority... But he is already the prime minister, inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people!

Didn't you give him enough wealth? But now he lives in the most luxurious courtyard in the capital, and his food and clothing expenses are second only to those in the palace!

When Zhou Tianfu heard this, the emotions in his eyes wavered for the first time.

When Xiao Chen spoke coldly and ridiculed him just now, there was no wave in his eyes.

He smiled again and said, "The reason why I rebelled... is actually because of you! Chu Yanwu!"

"What do you mean?"

Chu Yanwu's face was full of anger: "Am I an unruly king?"

Zhou Tianfu sneered and said in a cold voice:

"Eunuchs bring harm to the country, and you don't have any idea to stop it!"

"You never believe me or take me seriously... If I don't rebel, the world will perish!"

To be honest, Zhou Tianfu is also very good, and he has a good way of confusing right and wrong.

Even if Chu Yanwu is indeed not a wise king and holy master, he is definitely not an unruly king, let alone one who tolerates eunuchs to harm the country.

So Chu Yanwu was almost furious:

"What a great Zhou Tianfu!"

"How dare you be so presumptuous!"

Zhou Tianfu chuckled:

"Am I presumptuous?"

"How could I be so presumptuous!"

"Every word I say is true!"

Chu Yanwu sneered and said:

"You are obviously just making excuses! Which of these things you said is true?"

"How much power does Xiao Chen have? Tell me, can he bring harm to the country?"

At this point, Chu Yanwu's face turned a little red.

He paused for a moment, took a breath, and scolded again:

"And where does the power you have come from? Thousands of private soldiers, even countless internal agents in the palace, and you have supported so many masters!"

"You just want to rebel!"

There was nothing wrong with what he said.

Xiao Chen took power in less than half a year...

If Zhou Tianfu really wanted to resist the traitors, he would need to build a team within half a year.

And this is obviously impossible.

However, when Zhou Tianfu faced this overwhelming evidence, he remained calm and showed no shame:

"Aren't you looking for your own reasons?"

"Decades ago, you ascended the throne as a young emperor, and I was already the youngest second-rank official in the court at that time!"

"If I hadn't helped you, how could you have become pro-politics so quickly!"

After hearing this, Chu Yanwu's face became even more ugly.

Zhou Tianfu sneered and continued:

"And without me, how can there be peace in this country?"

At this point, his tone became high-pitched and exciting:

"Do you really think I'm only good at corruption? Do you really think I became prime minister just because of collusion?"

"You are still as childish as ever, Chu Yanwu!"

"My talents will never be what you, a foolish and ignorant king, can imagine!"

Being pointed at his nose and scolded, Chu Yanwu almost became furious and his whole body was trembling.

He raised his hand and pointed at Zhou Tianfu, as if he wanted to drag him down and cut him into pieces.

The fruit next to him also screamed:

"What a traitor. If you continue to speak arrogantly, believe it or not, our family will peel off your skin!"

But after a while, Chu Yanwu waved his hand to tell Guo Guo to be silent. He seemed to have suppressed the anger in his heart:

"You can say whatever you want today! Anyway, your rebellion has been aborted, and your future and destiny have been ruined today."

"Just now, you also consumed the last bit of my affection for you..."

Zhou Tianfu looked up to the sky and laughed.

His laughter was wild and joyful, as if the winner was not Chu Yanwu at all, but him.

After a long time, his laughter stopped, and he fixed his gaze on Chu Yanwu again:

"Chu Yanwu, if you don't have the blood of the Chu royal family flowing through your body, do you think you can ascend the throne? Can you be called the emperor, can you be respected as a saint?"

"Prince General Xiang Ning has the guts to allow an unscrupulous person like you to ascend to the throne!"

"Why can't I be a talented person like me?"

Even though his body was covered with wounds and blood, the light in his eyes shone brightly.

I have to say that Zhou Tianfu is indeed a very ambitious tycoon.

And to get to where he is today, he has indeed gone through countless hardships and hardships.

As an emperor, what Chu Yanwu hates most is that others say he is an unruly king, and that he has no advantages other than the royal blood...

Therefore, Chu Yanwu's eyes were full of anger:

"You're just a rebellious minister, but you still dare to speak arrogant words!"

Zhou Tianfu sneered, with arrogance in his eyes:

"Actually, Chu Yanwu, do you know something?"

Chu Yanwu was stunned for a moment, then turned to ask:

"what did you say?"

Zhou Tianfu laughed heartily, his eyes full of wanton publicity:

"That is!"

"You actually didn't have to die!"
