“After they make their choice, instruct the second elder to expand Chen City.
This time, build a bigger Chen City so that it won’t be blocked again.”
“Yes.”
“Patriarch, this second matter…”
While Chen Yang and Chen Xuan were dealing with the major matters piled up in Chen City, the higher-ups of the Zhou Consortium in the capital and the palace were also discussing the major matters that concerned the survival of the Zhou Consortium.
Zhou Tianke glanced at the Zhou Consortium’s higher-ups below and slowly said,””Don’t look so sad. Our Zhou Consortium hasn’t perished yet!”
Hearing this, the Zhou Consortium’s higher-ups braced themselves and looked at Zhou Tianke, who was sitting at the main seat.
After a short while, Prince De stood up and said,”Your Majesty, the most important thing now is to ease our relationship with Prince De Shun.””
“Deshun Commandery Prince was able to break through and ascend the stage all by himself. We didn’t help him at all. Even if Deshun Commandery Prince abandoned us, no one would blame him.”
“Although I believe that De Shun Commandery Prince will not do this, we must prepare for the worst. In order for De Shun Commandery Prince not to abandon the family, we must plan ahead.”
Hearing this, Zhou Tianke nodded and asked,””Does Prince De have any thoughts?”
“First, let the grandson of the Deshun Commandery Prince, Zhou Yingzhao, take over the position of the Human Ruler. This way, the Deshun Commandery Prince will not leave us for at least three hundred years.”
Prince De’s heart was bleeding.
After planning for so long, in the end, he still wanted to give up the position of Human King.
However, there was nothing they could do about it. After all, once Zhou Tianli left them, it was uncertain whether the Zhou Consortium could remain as the royal family of Da Qian.
If he couldn’t sit firmly in the royal family of Da Qian, then the position of Human King would become a joke.
For the sake of the Zhou clan, Prince De could only let Zhou Ying Zhao take over the position of the Human King.
“That’s true, but is Zhou Yingzhao willing to take over the position of Human King?”Zhou Tianke was a little worried.” Everyone is clear about Zhou Yingzhao’s character. He even finds the position of Deshun Commandery Prince troublesome, let alone the position of Human King.””
“I have to try no matter what. What if I succeed?”Prince De thought about it and continued,”If Zhou Yingzhao is unwilling to take over the position of Human King, then we have to think of another way.”
“My suggestion is to hold a marriage alliance.”
“Whichever bloodline’s woman can marry Ying Zhao, then the position of Human King will be decided by that bloodline.”
“With this layer of relationship, I believe that De Shun Commandery Prince will not leave us.”
The longer the family developed, the weaker the blood relationship between them. As the Zhou family developed, even the blood relationship between the direct descendants was extremely weak. There was no problem with marriage.
Some large clans that had developed for a long time relied on this kind of marriage to ensure the purity and stability of the bloodline in the clan.
Prince De’s plan received the approval of the higher-ups.
If the descendant of their lineage could marry Zhou Yingzhao, wouldn’t that mean that the position of the Human King would ultimately fall into their lineage?
This was the best way to fight for the position of Human King under the premise of stabilizing the family.
Immediately, everyone began to calculate what they should do next.
At this moment, Zhou Tianke changed the topic.” The matter of the Deshun Commandery Prince has come to an end for now. Next, we should discuss the matters of the Chen Family.””
“Some time ago, I asked you to select the daughters of each family. How is the selection going?”
At the mention of the Chen family, everyone’s hearts turned cold again.
If there were other ways to deal with the Chen family in the past, now, there was only one way left.
After all, the Chen Clan’s current strongest force was stronger than the royal family. If they angered the Chen Clan, the Zhou Clan’s destruction would be in their hands.
After a moment of silence, Prince Deli said,””Your Majesty, the selection we have been waiting for is almost done. We are only waiting for Your Majesty’s orders.”
“It’s the same for us.”
” Alright,” Zhou Tianke instructed.” Since that’s the case, we’ll bring our daughter to the Chen family in three days. We must fight for a direct marriage with the Chen family.””
“Right, who will lead this operation?”
As soon as he said this, everyone’s thoughts quickly became active.
If they could get the chance to lead the team, they might be able to build a good relationship with the Chen family. With the relationship with the Chen family, it would be of great benefit to them in competing for the position of the Human King.
Immediately, the higher-ups all petitioned, expressing their willingness to lead a team.
When Zhou Tianke saw this, he glanced at everyone and said,””How about this, Prince De is highly respected, let Prince De lead the team.”
“Yes, sir!” Hearing this, Prince De’s eyes flashed with joy as he hurriedly replied.
When the other higher-ups saw this, disappointment flashed in their eyes.
However, this disappointment quickly disappeared. As long as her daughter’s husband could marry into the Chen family, then everything was still unknown.
“Alright, that’s all for today’s discussion. Everyone, please disperse. Prince De, come with me.”
“Yes, sir!”
After everyone left, Prince De followed Zhou Tianke into a hall.
After entering the hall, Zhou Tianke sat on the main seat and pointed to the chair in front of him.” Uncle, please sit.””
Hearing this, Prince De hurriedly bowed and said,”This old man cannot be addressed as Uncle King.”
“What are you talking about? According to seniority, you’re my uncle. How can you not bear the responsibility?”Zhou Tianke helped Prince De up and placed him on a chair.
Then, Zhou Tianke continued,”Uncle, do you know why I asked you to lead the team?”
“I don’t know.” Prince De shook his head.
“Uncle, you’re old and scheming for the country. There are some things that I can only tell you.”Zhou Tianke said.
Hearing Zhou Tianke’s words, Prince De frowned slightly. He subconsciously felt that the matter with the ancestor was not that simple.
As expected, Zhou Tianke’s next words verified Prince De’s guess.
“I asked Chen Yang to investigate the matter of the ancestor. Uncle, do you know why?”Zhou Tianke asked.
” Of course, we have to take the matter of the evil cultivators seriously.” Prince De hurriedly replied.” Even our ancestor can’t tolerate it.””
“Your Majesty’s actions are for the sake of the future of our Zhou clan.”
Zhou Tianke smiled.” Uncle, there are no outsiders here, so there’s no need to say such things.””
“Uncle knows my character the best. If there are no great benefits, would I break my own arms?”
Prince De looked at Zhou Tianke with some doubt.” Isn’t Your Majesty afraid that the matter of the ancestor would implicate the Zhou family, so he did this?””
“This is one aspect, but not the most important. Let me put it this way. The matter of the old ancestor is a fight between the two great sects outside the Endless Mountain Range.”
“And I stand on the side of the forefather’s enemy sect.”
“That sect promised that as long as I ruined the plans of the sect that the ancestor was in, that sect would nurture three mighty figures for our Zhou clan.”
“Furthermore, each of them is at least at the middle stage of the Ascending Stage, and the time limit is eight hundred years.”Zhou Tianke said.
Hearing Zhou Tianke’s words, Prince De was silent for a long time.
“Your Majesty, 1 have three questions.” First, were these two sects evil cultivators?”
“Secondly, how can His Majesty be so sure that the final victor will be the sect His Majesty chooses?”
“Thirdly, is the sect’s promise credible?”
Although these three questions were simple, they hit the nail on the head.
The first problem was also the most important problem. If both sects were evil cultivators, then no matter who the Zhou Consortium chose, it would be difficult for them to escape death in the future.
As for the second problem, Prince De was blaming the king. Before he could determine who would win, the best thing to do was not to participate.
After all, they were separated by an endless mountain range. The Zhou Consortium could completely stay out of this.
The third problem was that if that sect stood him up, wouldn’t all of their efforts be in vain?
Zhou Tianke smiled and said,””The first question is that these two sects are not Evil Sects.”
” The second question. Although the sect behind the Old Ancestor is not Evil Sect, the things that he has done are things that even Evil Sect looks down on.”
“The sect I’ve chosen has already found a lot of evidence. Once it’s exposed, the only thing waiting for the sect behind the patriarch is death..”
