After hearing Chen An's words that he wanted to kill him, Zhang You was not afraid. Instead, he said righteously, "Your Majesty has misunderstood!"
"Although King Tianwu treats me with respect and obedience, I righteously rejected his repeated attempts to retain me three days ago. I told him that among all the great men in the world, only you, the Lord, are destined to rule by heaven. I urge him to serve you and help you stabilize the world!"
Hearing this, Chen An couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth. This little old man was obviously knocked unconscious and abandoned on the road, but he had the audacity to say that King Tianwu tried his best to keep him and even respected him as his elder.
Tsk tsk...how shameless!
This old man is also a talented person. At least he speaks so righteously that people who don't understand the situation probably actually believe him!
Zhang You was still spitting as he spoke with cadence and emotion, "Unfortunately, King Tianwu is ultimately a mediocre talent. How can he compare with Your Majesty's grace and elegance? Therefore, I have resolutely surrendered to Your Majesty and am willing to serve You at all times and offer you advice on how to pacify the world!"
After saying that, Zhang You raised his head and saw Chen An picking up the teacup and drinking it with an indifferent look.
Suddenly, Zhang You became agitated, filled with righteous indignation. "The Tianyue Dynasty's government is corrupt, and the emperor is incompetent. This has caused the people of the world to suffer misery. I am deeply saddened to see this. Looking across the world, the only one who can turn the tide and save the people from suffering is Your Majesty. Your Majesty is truly a sage that only appears once in a thousand years. Only a sage like Your Majesty should sit on the Nine-Five Dragon Throne!"
"puff……"
Chen An couldn't help but spit out the tea he had just taken.
Looking at Zhang You in the hall, he had seen many flatterers, but he had never seen anyone who was so good at speaking colloquial language!
Zhang You saw Chen An spit out a mouthful of tea and didn't dare to say anything. He looked at Chen An eagerly.
Chen An glanced at Zhang You and put down the teacup.
"Since I am so capable, what else do I need you to do?"
Zhang You was stunned for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Your Majesty's talent is naturally not comparable to mine, but Your Majesty always needs people to run errands and pass on messages. Even though I'm old, I can run fast!"
"Haha, I can see that. If he hadn't fainted, he would have run away long ago!" Chen An said with a smile.
Zhang You felt a little embarrassed.
Chen An narrowed his eyes: "Duan Chi!"
"I'm here!"
"Just waiting nearby!"
"yes!"
When the majestic Duan Chi came in, Zhang You seemed to sense something was wrong. He stared at Chen An anxiously.
Chen Anyun said calmly, "I've heard a lot of nice things. If you don't tell the truth, I'll drag you out and chop you off. I don't need people who only know how to flatter me!"
Duan Chi understood, and instantly drew his sword three-quarters out of its sheath!
Zhang You shrank his neck and said awkwardly, "Your Majesty, Huangfu Zhang suffered a loss at the Fengshen Sect and came back thinking I was the one who harmed him. I then urged Huangfu Zhang to lead his troops to capture Linfeng City immediately, but... Huangfu Zhang thought I was setting him up, and in a rage, he kicked me out and he fainted on the side of the road."
After saying that, Zhang You felt embarrassed and lowered his head, not daring to look at Chen An.
Chen An was surprised: "You advised Huangfu Zhang to attack Linfeng City, why is Huangfu Zhang unwilling?"
Originally, Chen An was ready to rush to Linfeng City for assistance, but Huangfu Zhang actually ran to Weicheng!
Under normal circumstances, if Huangfu Zhang was not a fool, he should have immediately recaptured Linfeng City. After all, if he had Linfeng City, he would have a strategic depth of thousands of miles between Linfeng City and Fengshen Gate!
Moreover, with dozens of towns with a population of tens of millions, as long as there is enough time and the various resources and support of Fengshen Sect, hundreds of thousands of troops can be trained to dominate the entire Linzhou County.
Huangfu Zhang actually gave up Linfeng City, which was something Chen An had never thought of before!
Zhang You smiled bitterly and said, "My humble guess is that Huangfu Zhang disagrees. He's probably frightened by the Lord and the Sealed God Sect, and thinks he simply doesn't have the strength to fight against them!"
Chen An's eyes flashed: "Do you think King Tianwu has the strength to fight against Fengshen Sect?"
Zhang You glanced at Chen An, a little hesitant.
"Just say what you think. Don't give me those useless empty words, or I'll chop you off anyway!" Chen An sneered.
Zhang You swallowed his saliva, glanced at Duan Chi, who was about three points away from attacking with his sword, and said, "I think that King Tianwu has the strength to fight against the Fengshen Sect."
"Why?" Chen An's eyes brightened a little.
Zhang You said cautiously, "Although Fengshen Sect is the world's number one sect, even the imperial family doesn't dare to provoke it easily. That's because Fengshen Sect has many powerful people. The five mountains where Fengshen Sect is located are naturally defensive and have divine formations to support them. The imperial army simply can't conquer them. Even if the imperial court gathered many powerful people to besiege Fengshen Sect, it was proven ten years ago that it would be impossible!"
Chen An was suddenly stunned: "Wait a minute, you just said that ten years ago, the royal family of the Tianyue Dynasty besieged Fengshenmen?"
Zhang You was stunned and looked at Chen An blankly: "Your Majesty, don't you know?"
Chen An had just arrived at Fengshenmen not long ago and knew nothing. Chen An looked at Duan Chi.
Duan Chi immediately spoke up, "Your Majesty, this is indeed the case. Ten years ago, the Tianyue Dynasty, acting as the main force, recruited a large number of experts to besiege the Fengshen Sect. If the Sect Master hadn't appeared out of nowhere and turned the tide, the consequences would have been disastrous!"
Many things that Chen An was puzzled about finally became clear. No wonder Lu Hongyi not only did not stop him from messing around in Long'an Town, but also made him take it as a serious matter!
Damn it, Lu Hongyi was looking forward to it. No wonder when I quit, Lu Hongyi's attitude suddenly changed. She gave money to people...
He made a mistake and was used as a pawn by Lu Hongyi.
Chen An rolled his eyes in frustration!
However, Chen An's eyes rolled and he thought to himself, since this is the case, should he ask Lu Hongyi for some more benefits?
Don't give it to me? I quit!
Chen An nodded and decided to do it, otherwise it would be difficult to get rid of the hatred in his heart!
He raised his eyes and looked at Zhang You: "Tell me, what the hell are you waiting for?"
Zhang You suddenly felt aggrieved. Didn’t you ask about something else?
But immediately, Zhang You spoke very quickly: "Although the Fengshen Sect is inside the mountain gate and the Tianyue Dynasty is helpless, but outside, the Fengshen Sect will also find it difficult to fight against the Tianyue Dynasty. Huangfu Zhang has millions of lions under his command. As long as they are determined, the troops you have now will not be able to gain a foothold in Linzhou County. If the Fengshen Sect reinforces, the Tianyue Dynasty also has a large number of strong men. If they send elite troops and strong men to support Huangfu Zhang, they can also resist the Fengshen Sect and prevent them from leaving the mountain gate!"
After finishing speaking in one breath, Zhang You glanced at Chen An nervously. Although he was telling the truth, he was saying it in front of the Fengshen Sect after all. People in the world like to hear nice things. Zhang You has no idea what kind of person this Lord is.
He was afraid that Chen An would get angry and really chop him with a knife.
But Chen An smiled. When Zhang You saw it, a huge stone in his heart seemed to fall to the ground at once.
But at the same time, Zhang You felt that this monarch, whom he met for the first time, was able to make Huangfu Zhang lose face, so he must be a truly extraordinary person!
