Su Jinxia took Zhou Chen to her own courtyard and asked her parents to take care of him for a while.
Although Zhou Chen was twelve years old, he looked like a seven or eight-year-old chick. Su's mother felt extremely sorry for him and promised Su Jin that she would take good care of him.
Su Jinxia naturally knew her parents' character. She brought Zhou Chen here in the hope that he could feel some warmth in the world, open his heart, and rekindle his hope for life.
Su Jin put Zhou Chen down and left.
The Liuli Society is now wealthy and needs to accelerate the development of both the Liuli Society and the Guying Society. People on both sides are extremely busy.
Su Jinxia had just returned to the Liuli Society when she suddenly felt something was wrong in her mind.
The Gu that caused the offspring to disappear.
Su Jin immediately entered her sea of consciousness and discovered that the missing Gu was none other than Nie Qingyi, whom she paid attention to every day.
Nie Qingyi has been approaching the Prince's Mansion for the past two days. Su Jin thought it wouldn't be long before they could close the net, but unexpectedly, Nie Qingyi's Gu poison disappeared!
Su Jin quickly sent people to investigate, but Nie Qingyi was nowhere to be found, as if she had suddenly disappeared.
Su Hu believed that Nie Qingyi had encountered some other misfortune and had died, which was why the Zi Gu had disappeared.
But Su Jinxia always felt that things weren't that simple.
Nie Qingyi has a deep understanding of the Glazed Gu, and perhaps she has found a way to conceal the Glazed Gu Mother's detection.
Su Jin felt a vague unease.
Not long after, Zhou Ji was assassinated.
The person who assassinated him was from Kyoto.
Zhou Ji was renowned in the southern region, and far more people praised him than the current emperor. There were even rumors that Zhou Ji was the only one worthy of being the ruler of the world.
Even if the new emperor was unsure whether Zhou Ji was plotting a rebellion, he could not tolerate other princes overshadowing his own reputation, so he secretly sent someone to assassinate Zhou Ji.
Fortunately, Shen Qianxue had anticipated the new emperor's methods and sent people to protect Zhou Ji in advance, preventing the new emperor from succeeding.
Although the assassination attempt failed, it completely panicked Zhou Ji, and he decided to raise an army at all costs.
Zhou Ji is the king, and once he makes up his mind, Shen Qianxue cannot stop him unless she breaks off her cooperation with him.
But how could that be!
Even now, Zhou Ji is only a little anxious, but it cannot shake his position in Shen Qianxue's heart, nor his connection with Phoenix Pavilion.
Shen Qianxue could only offer support, trying her best to deploy and plan, and fight with minimal casualties.
In fact, Phoenix Pavilion and Zhou Ji are already quite powerful.
Tens of thousands of troops had already been stationed in the restricted area behind Phoenix Pavilion. With the help of Jianghu forces and the reputation and influence Zhou Ji had built up, the entire southern region was brought under Zhou Ji's control in just half a month.
If Chen Zhen's rebel army had also been captured by Shen Qianxue, then the entire southeast region would have submitted.
When Zhou Ji raised an army, the world was thrown into complete chaos, with endless war and countless lives lost…
Although the imperial court had been absurd for many years, it still possessed considerable strength. The emperor quickly dispatched troops to attack, and they encountered Zhou Ji's army at Yuchuan.
After the war, both sides suffered heavy losses and were forced into a stalemate.
Su Jin could not stop Zhou Ji from raising an army, and things eventually developed to this point.
Su Jinxia handed over the affairs of the Liuli Society to Su Hu and returned to Zhuanghe.
Zhuanghe's current strength should not be underestimated; it has nearly 30,000 troops and horses, and enjoys an excellent reputation.
At Su Jin's command, the rebel army marched southeast.
With the assistance of the Liuli Society, the Guying Society, and Tianyang City, Su Jin effortlessly captured more than a dozen cities in the entire southeast region, expanding his army to over 100,000 men.
The court and Zhou Ji, who were locked in a stalemate, never expected that a Cheng Yaojin would suddenly appear out of nowhere, and suddenly the three powers were in a standoff, and the situation changed dramatically.
In Zhou Ji's camp, Yang Jiaoruo delivered the message to the council tent.
"The leader of the Zhuanghe uprising, the Heavenly Maiden Zhuang Wang, is none other than Su Jinxia!"
With Su Jin stepping forward to lead the troops, her identity could no longer be concealed!
Zhou Ji was shocked and suddenly stood up, knocking over the tea on the table, leaving it in a mess.
"Who did you say?" he asked incredulously.
"It's Su Jin!"
"How could it be her?"
How could a mere woman possibly lead an army of tens of thousands!
Moreover, the Zhuanghe army is disciplined and highly skilled in martial arts, and they are completely undisciplined by the imperial court. How could they possibly be led by that girl Su Jin?
Zhou Ji felt like his world had collapsed.
Su Jinxia is the Lord of the Glazed Glass, highly skilled in martial arts, and ruthless in mind. Zhou Ji knew all of this. He had always been worried that Su Jinxia would help the Southern Kingdom attack the Northern Kingdom, but he never expected that he had underestimated Su Jinxia!
Su Jinxia actually wants to declare herself king!
His audacity is astounding!
Yang Jiaoruo stared at Shen Qianxue and gritted her teeth, saying, "When the rebel army first entered Zhuanghe, I suspected that Su Jin was behind it, but no one believed me!"
"Qianxue, what's going on?!" Zhou Ji was practically going crazy. Why did things keep going wrong because of Su Jin?
Shen Qianxue's brows furrowed in worry.
Su Jinxia was the so-called celestial maiden, which shocked Shen Qianxue as well.
No wonder Su Jinxia repeatedly emphasized that she disliked Zhou Ji and did not agree with his uprising.
Does she want to declare herself queen?
Shen Qianxue originally thought that Su Jinxia had been honest with him, but he didn't expect that Su Jinxia still kept so much from him!
Faced with Zhou Ji's questioning, Shen Qianxue remained silent; he truly had nothing to say.
Su Jinxia stood on the opposite side of him and became his enemy.
And he wasn't told a single thing.
For whom should he speak up...?
At this moment, one of Zhou Ji's generals said in a loud voice, "What can a woman accomplish? We should go and wipe her out first, and then take over the southeast as well. At that time, the imperial army will be no match for us!"
