Zheng Xun didn't seem to notice Zheng Ji's doubts and was still lost in his own thoughts.
"I'm still thinking about making a comeback in Yinzhou. I don't even have my life left, so what else can I do? Changding, tell me, what else can I do... like this? I have nothing left!"
He gritted his teeth and said harshly: "They asked me to die! But even if I die, I can't let those people get their wish!"
Perhaps he really was about to die, so Zheng Xun was more honest with her than ever before.
She knew very well that if Zheng Xun could continue to live, he would never say this.
All because, what he revealed was too shocking.
It turns out that the Zhou family, a family of poets and writers, had been seeking power in the military more than ten years ago.
It turns out that Yuncong was originally placed in the army by the Zhou family, and was later entrusted with the important task of developing weapons here in Liyun Village.
It turned out that the Zhou family had scattered many chess pieces back then, and many generals of Shannan Guard had deep and shallow relationships with the Zhou family.
It turned out that the real core person of the Zhou family was not his grandfather and uncle, but Concubine Zhou Shu, and these plans of the Zhou family were all instructed by Concubine Zhou.
Zheng Ji listened and couldn't help but interrupt him: "Beauty Zhou... your mother-in-law, is she so capable?"
It's not that she looks down on Concubine Zhou Shu, but...
how to say?
Although her mother-in-law and Concubine Tao Xian were the first high-ranking concubines to have trouble, Concubine Zhou Shu in her previous life did not live too long.
It is impossible for a concubine who did not have the last laugh to have such a long-term and sophisticated grasp of the court situation, and to have such deep penetration and influence on the military.
Hearing this, Zheng Xun laughed again, not hiding his sarcasm at all: "Yes, how can the mother-in-law be so capable?"
"Of course the mother-in-law is not that capable! But there is someone else behind the mother-in-law!"
He almost squeezed out this last sentence through his teeth.
Is there someone else behind Beauty Zhou?
At this time, Zheng Ji once again remembered Zhou Meiren's words about wanting to kill her son.
She and her mother-in-law never understood why Zhou Meiren wanted to kill Zheng Xun.
With the concubines and heirs in the palace, Zhou Meiren's behavior makes no sense.
If there is someone else behind her...it doesn't seem to be difficult to explain.
Zheng Ji went to the core and asked: "Who is the person behind Zhou Meiren?"
"I don't know." Zheng Xun shook his head, "But I know what these people want to do."
Whatever the concubine did to him and the Zhou family, the person behind it did the same.
Here in Shannan Daoliyunzhai, it is even more obvious.
Isn't it just a covert attempt to gain influence in the military and develop weapons here in Liyun Village?
What Zheng Xun wants to do is very simple. Whatever these people want to do, just let them fail!
Unfortunately, he realized this too late.
By the time he thought about this clearly, he was already under confinement in Yinzhou, Shannan Road.
He had no freedom to come in or out, and his every move was monitored, so what could he do?
There was a time when he thought that he would not be able to spread the news until his death, let alone thwart these people's plans.
Fortunately, God will not stop him!
After he learned that Wuge was coming to Lishan to suppress the bandits, he felt like he saw a ray of light in the darkness.
Especially when he learned that among the people who suppressed the bandits was Princess Changding, his opportunity came!
A unique chance and the only chance!
In order to seize this opportunity, he worked hard, using all his intelligence and wisdom to the extreme, and also using the power in his hands to the fullest.
Under the eyes of countless forces, he took advantage of the competition between various forces to deliver a lot of specious news. Finally, with the help of his close friends, he escaped from Yinzhou and went straight to Liyun Village.
He knows that the most dangerous place is the safest place
, originally wanted to hide in Liyun Village and wait for Zheng Ji's arrival, but he didn't expect that after arriving at Liyun Village, there would be such a big surprise waiting for him!
After meeting the handsome-looking Chang Dingsu soldier, he couldn't help but smile.
He had carefully studied the Chang Ding rate soldiers who were needed around Chang Ding!
That Chang Ding named Cheng Xiangya has appeared in Liyun Village, which means that Chang Ding is very likely to be in Liyun Village!
Sure enough, God still has mercy on him!
The situation was critical now. He didn't care whether Zheng Ji believed it or not, and said in one breath: "Changding, the reason why there is an armory here in Liyun Village is because there are mineral deposits here in Lishan Mountain! Those bandits that Yun Cong scattered, They must have escorted the miners and craftsmen away."
As long as there are no bandits, no miners and craftsmen in Liyun Village, then Liyun Village will not be important.
Wuge came to suppress the bandits, but if there were no bandits, they would end up in vain.
In this way, the vitality of Liyun Village was preserved, and the secret of Liyun Village was also preserved.
It is impossible for people from Wuge to stay here on Shannan Road for a long time. As soon as these people leave, Liyun Village will return to its original state!
The power in the army will still be stolen by some people, and the arsenal of Liyun Village will still be built in secret. These are what Zheng Xun originally wanted to do, how could he watch others do it?
With his power, he can no longer stop it, but... Chang Ding can!
Zheng Ji glanced at Zheng Xun indifferently, but his heart was actually churning.
Shannan Road has many mineral deposits. This is something that many people know. Otherwise, the largest weapons depot of the country would not be located in Shannan Road. Otherwise, there would not be a powerful person like Shen Chen who develops weapons.
However, there are mineral deposits here in Liyun Village, which she has never heard of in her two lifetimes!
Moreover, setting up an arsenal is a very difficult matter, which consumes countless manpower and material resources. This is something that requires the entire country to accomplish.
More importantly, there has never been any news about the weapons depot in Liyun Village.
The miners who mine, the craftsmen who make, the storage and circulation of weapons... so many links, involving countless people, but they are as dense as an iron barrel, and no news is leaked!
How could a mere den of thieves and bandits in Liyunzhai have the ability to cover up the sky?
Either the scale of this weapons depot is actually very small, or the power behind Liyun Village is huge.
At the very least, Shannan Guards must protect him.
Shannanwei General Ling Hanxiao is not attached to any force in Jingzhao, and he already has such a powerful position, why would he take such a huge risk to do this?
You must know that actions such as setting up private arsenals are tantamount to stealing the country.
Those who steal the country shall be punished by the whole clan!
Now she has not seen the real arsenal, and Hu Chong, who knows many inside stories, has not yet woken up, so it is difficult to distinguish the authenticity.
Zheng Xun met her gaze and didn't know what he was thinking.
The next moment, in full view of everyone, he made a shocking move.
