    ?

    Zhou Heng stopped immediately.

    "where are you going?"

    Emperor Guangxiao asked in a stern tone, like a strict father.

    "Father!"

    Only then did he turn around and salute Emperor Guangxiao.

    "Hmph, do you still know that I am your father? You have been in Chang'an City for a few days and have not come to see me in the palace. Why do you have any objections to me?" Emperor Guangxiao threw the memorial in his hand on the desk, with a little  Said in a complaining tone.

    This son is really spoiled by him.

    "There, the son-in-law knows that the father is busy with official duties and takes care of everything, and the son-in-law doesn't want to disturb the father."

    Zhou Heng gave a quite satisfactory reason.

    "Father, you also know that my son has a stubborn personality. I am worried that my father will only increase his troubles when he sees me. Since this is the case, if my son does not appear in front of my father, it is my greatest filial piety."

    Zhou Heng explained.

    Emperor Guangxiao looked at Zhou Heng.

    Compared with Zhou Heng a year ago, there is really a world of difference.

    If it wasn't in this imperial study room, if he and Zhou Heng met Zhou Heng, who he might not be capable of, outside, it would be completely reborn.

    Zhou Heng's previous appearance and shadow have disappeared, and he feels like he has changed into another person.

    What kind of process is it that can turn a person into a stranger within a year?

    Could it be that he was really ruthless.

    Although Zhou Heng was stubborn, he was his own son after all. Seeing Zhou Heng so honored Emperor Xiaodi felt a little distressed.

    But it was only in his heart, and there was still a majesty on his face.

    "After staying in Hanshan Temple for a year, I have become eloquent."

    Emperor Guangxiao said lightly.

    "There!"

    Zhou Heng was taken aback, knowing his son is like a father, could it be that Emperor Guangxiao saw the clues and knew that he was not Zhou Heng?

    "Isn't it? I heard that after you came to Chang'an, you mixed with that prodigal son of the Ye family, and the two of them went to Changle Street. Is there such a thing?"

    Emperor Guangxiao questioned Zhou Heng.

    Why do you show filial piety to yourself? This is clearly enjoying yourself.

    "Erchen is just a critical visit, to give you warmth in an instant." Zhou Heng said with a smile.

    "you?"

    Emperor Guangxiao was speechless when Zhou Heng said it. He didn't expect Zhou Heng to find such a reason for himself. He was really speechless.

    "There is something for you to do. If you do it well, I will give you the status of a prince."

    Emperor Guangxiao went straight to the point, worried that if he continued to chat with Zhou Heng, he might explode.

    After all, Zhou Heng is his own son, the prince of Da Zhou, and the status of a county king is somewhat inappropriate.

    "whats the matter?"

    Zhou Heng asked, this is probably not a good thing.

    "Nowadays, Southern Chu and Nanliang are about to move in the surrounding area. I am worried that they will send troops to Dazhou. I want you to go to Nanliang to learn about their situation and win Nanliang over instantly."

    Emperor Guangxiao stated the purpose of this trip.

    "Not going."

    After listening to Emperor Guangxiao's words, Zhou Heng resolutely refused.

    "What did you say?" Emperor Guangxiao thought he had heard it wrong, but he couldn't say it.

    This is a good opportunity to make contributions. If it is announced in the hall, how many people will rush to go.

    "I dont go."

    Zhou Heng said that this matter seems to be a good thing for making contributions, but it is actually a thankless thing.

    "Then you, a prince, will be out of business!" Emperor Guangxiao threatened Zhou Heng.

    If this matter is done, Zhou Heng will be the prince.

    "Father, you should demote me to a commoner!"

    Zhou Heng looked at Emperor Guangxiao and said.

    "Do you want to piss me off?" Emperor Guangxiao slapped the table angrily. What are you talking about? Why are you demoted to a commoner?

    "It's not that I'm mad at you, it's that you make things difficult for others. I know how much I am. There are many people who are stronger than me in the Zhou Dynasty. Why don't you choose someone who is more confident, and you have to choose me?"

    Zhou Heng asked back.

    This matter does not conform to the character setting, okay? Such a matter should not be entrusted to an ignorant prince like him, but to a genius prince like Zhou Zheng.

    "Because you are the prince of the Great Zhou."

      Emperor Guangxiao said.

    "But Prince Da Zhou is not alone. Doesn't King Lu have something to do? Just let King Lu pass by." Zhou Heng pushed the matter onto Zhou Zheng.

    This matter is really not something that people do.

    You have just won five hundred miles of land in Nanliang, and now you are going to form an alliance with him, is he a fool?

    In other words, he would not do it himself.

    It is impossible to win over Nanliang.

    "He has other things to do. This matter is something we discussed and decided together. You must go." Seeing that he couldn't say no to Zhou Heng, Emperor Guangxiao directly gave Zhou Heng an order.

    Zhou Heng stood where he was.

    Think for a moment.

    "Father wants me to go, but I have conditions!"

    Zhou Heng said.

    He understood that he really couldn't avoid this matter, so he could only bite the bullet.

    "explain!"

    Emperor Guangxiao wanted to hear what Zhou Heng wanted to say.

    "Leave the five hundred miles of the border to me. No matter what I do, you can't blame me." Zhou Heng said his request.

    Emperor Guangxiao looked at Zhou Heng.

    "Do you want the five hundred miles of the border in exchange?"

    Emperor Guangxiao is also a smart man. When Zhou Heng said this, he naturally understood.

    "That's right, I believe that Nanliang is looking forward to the rain after a long drought for the five hundred miles."

    Zhou Heng said.

    Now he finally understood why Xiao Jingyuan was so calm after Nanliang lost the game.

    Nanliang is holding back.

    If Nanliang and the Southern Chu Alliance break the border, Dazhou will definitely lose. When Nanliang asks for five hundred miles of land, Dazhou will have to give it.

    "Are you so sure?"

    "That's right, the land in Nanliang is barren. There was little rain in the previous year, and the fertile land was even useless. This year, most of the treasury's granaries have run out of grain and grass, and the five hundred miles of land is fertile. If Nanliang wants to go back, he can grow grain.  It can solve the crisis of food shortage in Nanliang."

    Zhou Heng said.

    Although he is in Hanshan Temple, he is also a person who looks at the world.

    He still knows some things.

    "How did you know that the Nanliang grain depot was short of grain and grass?" Emperor Guangxiao asked curiously, how did Zhou Heng know these things.

    "It's simple, I heard it from the business travellers."

    Chang'an is the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty, with developed commerce and trade, many business travelers will come to Chang'an to do business, and there are many business travelers from Nanliang.

    They passed by Hanshan Temple, drank tea at Hanshan Tea House, chatted with each other, and Zhou Heng listened to them.

    "Many business travelers in Nanliang traveled thousands of miles, and they came to my Dazhou to buy food and grass at any cost. This shows that Nanliang is short of food!" Zhou Heng said, looking at the big from the small, and the big things hidden behind it can be seen from the small things.

    Zhou Heng expressed his analysis.

    Emperor Guangxiao stared at Zhou Heng, fixedly staring at Zhou Heng. Suddenly, Emperor Guangxiao felt that he didn't know Zhou Heng anymore. Is this still his son?  (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
