Are you crazy? The marriage robbery happened to my young master of the imperial family

Early morning, Great Zhou Dynasty.

In the council hall, Emperor Zhou discussed recent events with civil and military officials.

"What's going on at the border these past two days?"

Emperor Zhou rubbed his brows. It had only been less than a month, but he already felt that he had aged significantly.

There was no way. Too many things had happened recently, and even he felt exhausted.

Especially since the Jun family's power is growing rapidly, he is unable to guard against it.

Fortunately, Jun Haotian is currently leading his troops to attack the Xuanwu Empire, and Jun Lintian has also gone to the Xuanwu Empire. Without these two people in the Great Zhou Dynasty, Emperor Zhou can let go and do many things.

In the past two days, he has won over many officials and sent out more spies to control the intelligence of the entire Kyoto and the Great Zhou Dynasty.

It’s a pity that Emperor Zhou still failed to send his spies to the Xuanwu Empire, so there is no way to understand what happened there.

He could only rely on the troops he sent out to find out from the other side of the border.

The new Minister of Personnel Liu Jianan stood up and said, "Your Majesty, the situation at the border is still unclear, and no spies have sent back any news."

"But it is said that General Jun Haotian has already conquered Xuanyang City and Wuyang City. We still don't know what his plans will be next."

"But I think that General Jun Haotian has wasted too much time in the Xuanwu Empire. It is not easy to guard the border, so he needs to come back and take charge."

"Your Majesty should write a transfer order to transfer General Jun Haotian back and let other troops take over Xuanyang City and Wuyang City."

After Liu Jianan finished speaking, Donghuang Yushi and Prime Minister Luo Wenshan could not help but frown.

Luo Wenshan even snorted with disdain in his heart.

This is picking peaches!
General Jun Haotian had finally captured two cities, and now they probably haven't even completely defended them, but Emperor Zhou is already impatient to plunder the fruits of victory.

That’s right, the new Minister of Personnel, Liu Jianan, was the person promoted by Emperor Zhou.

Originally, Donghuang Wenshan and Prime Minister Luo thought that since the position of Minister of Personnel had become vacant, they could assign their people to the position.

But he didn't expect that Emperor Zhou would take the lead and promote his people.

The young master of the Jun family is not in Kyoto, and Prime Minister Luo and Donghuang Wenshan really have no good way to deal with Emperor Wu.

After all, the previous transfers of those officials and the benefits gained by the two of them were actually exchanges of interests arranged by the young master of the Jun family with Emperor Zhou.

Without the young master of the Jun family, they were inevitably a little restrained.

"That's a good point."

Emperor Zhou nodded in satisfaction and said, "The Daqian Dynasty and the Ancient Nanman Kingdom have recently learned that Jun Haotian led his troops to attack the Xuanwu Empire, and they are both ready to take action."

"There are constant frictions on the border between the two sides. If Jun Haotian hadn't come back to take charge, I'm afraid there would have been another war."

Having said that, he couldn't help but look at Liu Jianan with admiration.

As expected, he still had to arrange his own people among the officials. Otherwise, any opinions he put forward would be rejected by the Donghuang family and that old man Luo Wenshan.

Now he promoted Liu Jianan to the position of Minister of Personnel, won over many officials again, and divided the power of Donghuang Wenshan and Luo Wenshan.

In this way, Emperor Zhou could sit on the mountain and watch the fight between the tigers, and only take action when the officials had quarreled enough.

However, after hearing about Jun Haotian's battle record in the Xuanwu Empire, Emperor Wu was a little worried.

The 100,000 elite soldiers under Jun Haotian's command are truly powerful.

The Xuanwu Empire made its fortune through war, and its once terrifying combat power made several surrounding countries ashamed.

However, Jun Haotian only used 100,000 people to capture two important border cities of the Xuanwu Empire.

If one day, Jun Haotian turns against the Great Zhou Dynasty, will the meager military force he currently has be able to stop him?
Emperor Zhou originally did not have much military power. Therefore, he wanted to send Jun Haotian out to let the Xuanwu Empire defeat the Jun family's troops, so that he could reap the benefits.

He just didn't expect that the development of the incident would catch him off guard.

Emperor Wu had never expected that the Jun family's fighting power would be so strong.

"In that case, I will transfer Jun Haotian back."

Emperor Zhou raised his lips to a cold smile, and was about to ask Eunuch Li to bring the imperial edict.

But at this moment, Luo Wenshan stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I think it is too early now."

"It is still unclear how General Jun Haotian has occupied Wuyang City and Xuanyang City. If we withdraw our troops hastily, it may lead to a counterattack from the Xuanwu Empire."

"It may be difficult to counterattack by then."

Luo Wenshan did not dare to say anything too harsh. After all, the Emperor Zhou still had the final say in the entire Zhou Dynasty.

All he had to do now was to buy time. When the young master of the Jun family came back, everything would be solved naturally.

Donghuang Taining also stood up and said, "Your Majesty, I think what Prime Minister Luo said makes sense."

"If we want to take over Xuanyang City and Wuyang City, we have to wait until the army we sent arrives at these two cities so that we can hand them over to the Jun family."

When Emperor Zhou heard what the two said, a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

Of course he knew that if he rashly transferred Jun Haotian back, it would very likely lead to a counterattack from the Xuanwu Empire.

But he had to do it.

Otherwise, when Jun Haotian completely occupied Wuyang City and Xuanyang City, when his people went there again, Jun Haotian would not allow the handover at all. What should he do then?
It is even possible that Jun Haotian would close the city gates and not let his army in at all. Once the troops of the Xuanwu Empire arrived, his army would most likely suffer heavy losses.

"I have made up my mind, my dear ministers, there is no need to say anything more."

Emperor Zhou snorted coldly. Now that Jun Haotian and Jun Lintian were not around, he naturally didn't need to consider the faces of Donghuang's family and Luo Wenshan.

"Eunuch Li, bring the imperial edict here."

"I will immediately write a transfer order to transfer Jun Haotian back to the border, and only ask him to leave a small number of people to garrison the two cities."

Eunuch Li quickly brought the imperial edict, and Emperor Zhou started writing, and quickly stamped it with the imperial seal.

The Minister of Personnel Liu Jianan, who was standing among the officials, also had a sinister smile on his face at this moment.

He glanced coldly at Luo Wenshan and Donghuang Wenshan.

Let you work for the Jun family!

Now, isn't it Emperor Zhou who truly benefits?
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Urgent news from the border!"

At this moment, urgent shouts suddenly came from outside the hall.

Emperor Zhou's face suddenly brightened with joy, "Quickly send the messenger in!"

Soon, the messenger came in without any rest and said, "Your Majesty! Jun Haotian seems to have reached a deal with the Xuanwu Empire."

"Now, Wuyang City, Xuanyang City, and Suyang City have been handed over to the Jun family by the Xuanwu Empire!"

The smile on Emperor Zhou's face suddenly froze, and then it was replaced by unconcealable anger.

"W-what did you say?"

"The Jun family actually took over three cities?!" (End of this chapter)
