The look of shock on Zuo Feng's face was unmistakable. These things were definitely considered secrets. At least Kang Zhen probably didn't know the inside story. Obviously, these were secrets that could only be known among the super aristocratic families.
Chu Nan already knew about this, and suddenly said with a thought: "I heard that my little brother brewed a lot of wine and gave it to my father. He gave me a few bottles. I also like that wine very much."
Chu Zhao originally looked enigmatic, but he didn't expect that his son would suddenly interrupt and ask for wine from him.
The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and after hesitating for a long time, he reluctantly took out a porcelain bottle, threw it towards Chu Nan with a cold "hum", and said: "I still need a few more bottles, you really have a bad tone."
, is there any more, there’s only one bottle like this.”
Chu Nan didn't think anything of it. He reached out to take the porcelain bottle, removed the cork and took a big sip.
Chu Zhao looked away with some pain and muttered something in his mouth. He was probably very dissatisfied with his son for giving him medicinal wine.
Seeing that Zuo Feng's expression gradually returned to normal, Chu Zhao continued: "The Xuanwu Empire originally had big families, but there was no so-called super family. As for the current six super families, they only resolutely supported the emperor.
Just a small family.
However, later on, from the ancient wasteland, our own powerful forces sent out branch families of their own sect, directly stationed in the Xuanwu Empire, borrowing the bodies of those families, and from then on they completely became the big families of the Xuanwu Empire."
Seeing his son Chu Nan gently drinking Wangyouzui one sip after another, and smashing his mouth from time to time, he really couldn't stand it anymore, so he took out a bottle of Wangyouzui and took a sip.
continued.
"With the Xuanwu Empire's own forces taking action, the war quickly changed. The three empires experienced several wars and ended in defeat. Their strength was damaged and they had to retreat.
However, the purpose of Ancient Wasteland was not really to suppress the other three empires, so after the Three Empires withdrew from Xuanwu, the forces behind several families also withdrew their personnel back to Ancient Wasteland. What was left was only a branch of their own force.
family.
The reason why these families stay in Xuanwu has twofold purposes. The main purpose is to allow Xuanwu itself to have a certain strength, and at the same time to support the Xuanwu Empire to gradually become stronger, and eventually have the strength to be on par with the other three empires.
Judging from the current situation, this purpose has been completely realized. Xuanwu, Yelin, Fengtian and Dacai check and balance each other, and the destruction of the country will no longer happen like in the past.
The second purpose is to balance the empire. The original Xuanwu Empire itself did not have too much strength, and the abilities of the king itself were also very limited. These families who were left behind were actually to make the entire Xuanwu Empire reach a certain level.
Internal balance.”
Hearing this, Chu Zhao suddenly waved his hand and interjected: "Although the Xuanwu Empire is balanced, it also limits the development of the country's leader. Each of these families had considerable power at the time, and in addition, they were as powerful as those in ancient times.
The forces of Huang were connected, but gradually the king was emptied out."
Zuo Feng didn't understand why Chu Nan wanted to intervene in this matter. He glanced at the other party in surprise, and saw a hint of sadness flashing in the other party's eyes. However, this look disappeared in a flash, and even Zuo Feng was sure that
Did you spot it just now?
Chu Zhao did not deny it, but sighed secretly and said: "This situation was not considered well at the beginning, so later the Su family got close to the empire and wanted to support the king. But after many years of development,
, these families have gradually broken away from the control of their original forces, and each one has become a truly independent existence."
Having said this, Chu Zhao shook his head, took a long breath, and looked at the top of the cave with a somewhat sad look. Zuo Feng looked at the change in Chu Zhao's expression, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke.
"The master is originally from the prairie, so why is he willing to help the Su family? I believe that the master should belong to a big sect in the ancient wilderness."
Chu Zhao slowly withdrew his gaze, looked at Zuo Feng and said: "It seems that you have seen a lot in the realm of spiritual extremes. If I don't expel you from the realm, you may have to see all my secrets.
"
Chu Nan, who was drinking wine, had a look of shock in his eyes. He had heard his son Chu Yihu say that Zuo Feng had been enlightened for more than an hour, but now it seemed that his father had directly and unilaterally cut it off.
After pondering for a moment, Master Chu Zhaochu continued: "Because the Su family still respects the opinions of the ancient wilderness, I came here to support the Su family and hope that the Xuanwu Empire can regain order and balance.
.
Since those families want to control the highest power in Xuanwu, Guhuang hopes to increase the influence of the country's leader, thereby checking and balancing those families who are ready to make moves. However..."
Chu Nan suddenly continued: "But what I didn't expect was that the Su family relied on external forces, and other families also chose to rely on external forces, so the collapse of the entire order would be a matter of time."
A trace of anger flashed across Chu Zhao's face, and he said loudly: "Since Tianhai Sect has chosen to take action, it has its own reasons. You can't just give up because of some resistance and let it get out of control. The current Xuanwu is like a horse
A wild horse running wild, no one can tell where it will go. Isn't this what you want to see?"
There was also a hint of anger on Chu Nan's face, but he did not appear as excited as Chu Zhao, but his voice became very serious when he spoke.
"Your choice does not represent the choice of the Su family. Although the Su family has been on the side of the king these years, they still have their own calculations and plans. If the Su family can work together, how can it be with the Kang family?"
You're so close, and there's Mao Jie, don't you know what's going on in Xinjuncheng!"
There was a tit-for-tat argument, as if Zuo Feng had turned into transparent air at this time, but the two of them did not avoid themselves at all, and it was not good for him to leave voluntarily now.
Moreover, he is also a little curious about the situation of the Xuanwu Empire. Even if he does not want to get involved, he has already been deeply involved and it is impossible to escape now.
Facing his son's questioning, Chu Zhao's face flashed with a ruddy color, and he said with some excitement: "Although the Su family has its own plans, his purpose is still to maintain the order of the empire.
For the stability of the empire, don’t you want to see such a result?”
"The order and stability of the empire, do you think these are the real purpose of the Su family!"
"Isn't it?"
"What is the purpose of the Su family? It's useless for you and me to argue now. It will go back to the way we talked last time. Then there is no point in me coming here this time."
After listening to the quarrel between the two, Zuo Feng gradually understood the real reason why the father and son were not in contact with each other. The order of the Xuanwu Empire was stable. Although the two had the same purpose, they chose different methods, which ultimately caused the two father and son to break up with each other.
contacts.
Now it seems that both of them have seen the problem, but Chu Zhao believes in the Su family's approach, but Chu Nan seems to have another idea.
"To this day, do you still think that the Su family's approach is wrong? At least the Su family can maintain the stability of the empire until now. As long as we can overcome the difficulties this time, I believe that there will be a long time in the future, and the Xuanwu Empire will
Continue to maintain this stability.”
The expression on Chu Nan's face became ugly. It could be seen that he was actually very excited, but the difference in personality made his temper completely restrained. Even if he had an argument, he was very restrained.
However, now he couldn't control it, and said with a low "hum": "I said before, no matter what the purpose of using external force, as long as it is introduced into the empire, the order will eventually be broken. Putting aside the ancient wasteland
The power of Xuanwu is not allowed to enter Xuanwu again, and once an external force can enter, other families will know that the rules have been broken, and they will try their best to introduce other powers, which will only make the empire more chaotic."
Chu Zhao was a little excited and wanted to speak, but Chu Nan did not give him a chance to speak, and continued: "At the beginning, I just said that I did not agree to the introduction of external forces, and I was just secretly competing among the families within the Xuanwu area. In this way,
Only internal consumption will be done.
But I have another concern, and this concern does not come from any family, nor from any external force, but from the king himself who you are optimistic about."
Chu Zhao, who was about to speak, suddenly froze when he heard his son's words.
Although Chu Zhao had a stubborn temper, he was not a fool. After a little thought, he roughly understood what his son meant.
After a long while, Chu Zhao faintly shook his head and said: "The ones who jumped out now are the ghost family and the painter, and the Qianhuan Sect, which has been dormant for many years, has united with these two families at this time, and its intention is very obvious. Even if it is the country at this time,
The Lord has other thoughts and absolutely needs our strength, so how could he cut himself off?"
Although Chu Zhao was still a little excited, his words were not as strong as before. It could be seen that Chu Nan's thoughts about the king were not completely unknown to him.
Chu Nan subconsciously took a sip of Wangyouzui. As the wine entered his stomach, he spat out a mouthful of spicy wine smell.
"Frankly speaking, I can't prove my guesses with facts, because these are just based on my feelings. From the first time I saw the leader Xuanhong, I felt that he had great ambitions. This ambition
It might swallow up his sanity and make him do unpredictable things."
After saying this, Chu Nan fell into silence, and Chu Zhao also fell into silence. The knot between father and son cannot be solved now, but as things develop, all the conspiracies and calculations will be revealed to the world. At that time,
I believe that the knot between father and son will naturally be resolved.
