Chapter 454 What to do
Zhou Mu naturally understood what Yue Fuli was talking about, but if people don't take action for their own benefit, they will be punished by heaven and earth. Since Yue Zhenhai took advantage of his innate advantage and did nothing, why couldn't they do the same?
If anyone was to blame someone, it was Yue Zhenhai's lack of ambition and blind loyalty. The emperor clearly didn't treat him well and was always on guard against him, yet he foolishly still worked for the emperor.
Wouldn't it be nice to be in power? Even if you were a minister and achieved the highest position among the people, you still had to obey the emperor, right?
It is said that if the ruler wants his subjects to die, they must die. Throughout history, countless ministers have held great power, yet ultimately met with an unhappy end.
Their Zhou family is not as stupid as Yue Zhenhai. They hold a large number of troops but still have to work for the emperor.
"So what if I go to the eighteen levels of hell? As long as I can help the Zhou family reach a higher level of success, I will die without regrets."
"Let the Zhou family rise to a higher level?" Yue Fuli sneered and said, "As long as I'm here, the Zhou family will have no way out. How can they rise to a higher level? It's just a dream that comes true sooner."
"You?" Zhou Mu was so angry that he couldn't speak, his face flushed red. Just then, the guard came and said, "Your Excellency, General Yue has arrived."
Hearing Yue Zhenhu had arrived, Zhou Mu had to suppress his inner emotions and said lightly, "Please ask him to come in."
Yue Zhenhu walked in and saw Zhou Mu sitting in the main seat. He smiled and said, "Brother Zhou, you called me over so suddenly. Is there something urgent?"
"General Yue, something terrible has happened." Zhou Mu said, his eyes occasionally glancing towards the beams. He felt that if Yue Fuli was truly part of that mysterious force, he would definitely take action upon seeing Yue Zhenhu. Even if he didn't take action, there would definitely be some aura fluctuations, right?
He could then take advantage of the opportunity to strike and see if he could hurt the other person. Otherwise, knowing that the other person was right next to him, but not knowing their exact location, would make him feel uneasy. He didn't know when the other person would come towards him, and he couldn't defend himself even if he wanted to.
"Sir Zhou, why do you say that?" Yue Zhenhu looked at the other party in confusion, wondering where he had heard the news from.
Although Yue Zhenhu was not as well-informed as Zhou Mu when it came to information, he still knew what was happening on this small piece of land at the border.
He hadn't received any information about the big event Zhou Mu mentioned.
"There's an uninvited guest in the mansion." Seeing Yue Zhenhu's disbelief, Zhou Mu pointed towards the beams above his head and said, "He's right up there."
Yue Zhenhu was startled and quickly looked up at the beam, but found nothing. He thought Zhou Mu was playing a trick on him and said unhappily, "Master Zhou, there's nothing on the beam. Are you kidding me?"
"General Yue, I'm not lying. This is the truth. I was talking to him just before you came. If you don't believe me, I'll prove it to you."
"Brother, are you still there?"
Yue Fuli did not answer, but looked coldly at the two people below, especially Yue Zhenhu, the traitor. She wished she could eat his flesh and drink his blood.
But she knew that now was not the right time, she had to get evidence first. Only in this way could she expose his true face in public and make the Yue Family Army truly serve her and become her Yue Family Army.
Yue Zhenhu waited for a long time, but no one spoke. He felt more and more that Zhou Mu was playing a trick on him. His face suddenly turned ugly and he said, "Master Zhou, what are you trying to do?"
