The Fall of the Zhou Dynasty:
"The Zhou Dynasty had a history of over 1,700 years and had many glorious moments. However, the last emperor of Zhou was obsessed with beauty, indulged in lust, and neglected state affairs, which led to the fall of the Zhou Dynasty and the suffering of the people.
"At that time, I was a general of the Left Banner Army of the Zhou Dynasty. Because of the serious corruption in the court and the withholding of military pay, I actually had the idea of rebelling against the Zhou Dynasty. However, what finally made me realize it was one person, Concubine Wu, the last imperial concubine of the Zhou Dynasty.
"Back then, I was ordered to go and wipe out the bandits, but when I got there, I found there were no bandits at all. They were just a group of doctors and talents from various professions who were fleeing for their lives. These people were the ones who followed Concubine Wu to the Eastern Fuhai Kingdom to spread medical skills.
"At that time, the Zhou Dynasty was defeated, and the surrounding countries all proposed conditions for a ceasefire. Among them, the Fuhai Kingdom wanted the Zhou Dynasty's medical skills, forging technology, agricultural technology, etc.
“And to show his sincerity, Emperor Zhou sent Concubine Wu, who was the most famous medical practitioner at the time, to Fuhai Kingdom with many talented people.
"But now it seems that Emperor Zhou has no intention of letting Concubine Wu and the others reach Fuhai Country. My position is just to cover their retreat and prevent anyone from escaping. Concubine Wu should also have people on her side who have been ordered to encircle and suppress them.
"As expected, the next day, news came that Concubine Wu and her companions had died on the way to Fuhai Country. They were also accompanied by the eldest prince of Fuhai Country, who was also beheaded. However, the news that came out said that the ambushed and murdered these people were carried out by other forces such as the Beicang Country.
"What surprised me was that the Fuhai Kingdom actually believed this news and cooperated with the Zhou Dynasty to launch a war against the northern countries, eventually allowing the Fuhai Kingdom to annex multiple northern forces. Only then did I see clearly that the so-called Concubine Wu and others, as well as the eldest prince of the Fuhai Kingdom, were all abandoned pawns. This was a conspiracy planned by the second prince of the Fuhai Kingdom who succeeded to the throne and asked the Zhou Emperor to help.
"Later, in order to commemorate Concubine Wu, Emperor Zhou pretended to erect a statue for her and wrote poems in praise of her. The more sincere and heartfelt the first part was, the more I wanted to fuck her later.
"Noble Concubine Wu's reputation among the people was already high, and all the major medical clinics used her as an example to save the world and help people, but Emperor Zhou did nothing. As a result, even after Concubine Wu's death, her reputation was even higher than Emperor Zhou's.
"When Emperor Zhou saw the people's support for Concubine Wu, he became jealous and ordered people to spread rumors among the people, saying that the reason Concubine Wu wanted to go to Fuhai Kingdom was because she had feelings for the eldest prince of that country and she had to go there. After learning about this, Emperor Zhou magnanimously forgave her.
"The matter was kept secret only to prevent Concubine Wu's image from affecting the reputation of the Zhou Dynasty. Now that it has been leaked, an order has been issued to prohibit all memorials for Concubine Wu, and to prohibit the dissemination of all books written by Concubine Wu and her deeds.
"When I heard the news, I was so angry that I wanted to spit in his face! I also realized that people like Emperor Zhou, who would do anything for their own selfish desires, are not worthy of being the emperor of this country.
"So I started a cavalry rebellion that very night. With a wave of my hand, heroes from all over the country followed me closely. We fought from the southern part of the Zhou Dynasty to the north, and then all the way west. It took us seven years to finally surround the imperial palace. I strode up to that bastard and spat a seven-year-old phlegm in his face.
"After I established the Great Song Dynasty, I crushed the Fuhai Kingdom with my iron hoofs, and defeated all the surrounding countries one by one, incorporating them into the territory of the Great Song Dynasty!
"Later, when I had some free time and wanted to prove Concubine Wu's innocence, I found that the rumors had already spread. The people below me also advised me that if I testified in this matter, the fact that I was ordered to kill those talented people would affect the stability that had just been established. In the end, I had to give up.
"It was only later during the investigation that we discovered that the general sent to encircle and suppress Concubine Wu was General Ji Cheng of the Iron Banner Battalion. I remember him as a good young man, but he has been missing since then. The people who went to collect the bodies also said that they didn't see Concubine Wu's body at the time, only the body of the First Prince of the Fuhai Kingdom. However, there were indeed a lot of bloodstains in the concubine's sedan chair."
"The matter of Concubine Wu is a knot in my heart. There are many histories that have been modified on this continent, and this one was tampered with before my eyes. I was unable to correct it. If anyone has this book, please help me correct it..."
Zhou Zhilu pondered the contents of the book "Truth" for a long time, and finally understood why people had such complicated attitudes towards Concubine Wu during the Holy Doctor's Day.
Ordinary rumors may not be so easy to believe, but it was a time of defeat and people were emotional. At this time, the imperial concubine actually had feelings for the prince of the enemy country. Under such rumors, the people's emotions were naturally vented.
Maybe some people have never believed it, but when more people say it, even the most false lies will become the truth. After all, people like to create gods, but they like to see gods fall from the altar even more.
Just as Zhou Zhilu was about to continue looking through the pages, a small, gray bird-like spirit beast suddenly flew over from the sky and landed beside him.
"Wind-bearing bird?" Zhou Zhilu asked in surprise. This was a spiritual beast that could transmit messages over long distances, and he didn't know who the message was from.
Zhou Zhilu took the letter off the bird's leg and unfolded it to find that the messenger was Wu An. He was delighted as he hadn't contacted him for a long time and didn't know how he was doing in the northern border.
But when he looked down, the smile on Zhou Zhilu's face suddenly became serious.
…
"Bang!"
"Brother Qing! Over in the northern border..." Zhou Zhilu suddenly pushed open the door of Fuyesi Tu Qing's office and said anxiously.
"Slow down! Stay calm no matter what happens. The more panicked you are, the more confused you will be!" Tu Qing glared at Zhou Zhilu and interrupted him.
"I already know what's happening in the Northern Territory. I heard that Shopkeeper Liao, who set up the massive formation during Saint Doctor's Day, has reappeared on the Northern Territory battlefield and stolen a large number of the bodies of the frontline soldiers, correct?"
Zhou Zhilu was stunned when he heard this: "Brother Qing, you actually knew this too?"
Tu Qing rolled his eyes and shouted, "How can I be the deputy minister of the Monster Appraisal Department if I don't know anything?
"Not only me, but the imperial court also learned of this news and issued an order, sending a cavalry general to lead troops to the northern border to investigate the case and capture that shopkeeper Liao."
Zhou Zhilu hesitated and said, "Brother Qing, I also want to go to the North."
"good."
"I know this request is a bit excessive, but Wu An's side... eh? Okay?"
Zhou Zhilu was stunned. He originally thought that he had to persuade Tu Qing, but he didn't expect that Tu Qing would agree directly.
Tu Qing took out a written order from his hand, handed it to Zhou Zhilu, and said, "Even if you didn't tell me, I would have let you go to the northern border with the Ranger General.
"That Shopkeeper Liao is extraordinary. Many people who have seen him say he's not human, but a demon. Some say he's a monster. We don't even know his true identity. But because this involves a demon case, and it's so special, I'm going to send your special demon case investigation team over there.
"But I need to warn you, this time you must not do everything as you were told last time!"
