Zhou Fan came out of the Ministry of Personnel and just looked back. He did not forget that there were many conflicts between him and the Wild Fox Sect, but now, he is not in his own territory. Even if he really wants to take revenge, he still needs to find a suitable opportunity.

He asked the carriage to go to Yiluansi General Office and prepared to visit the Grand Secret Head East Gate to play the flute.

The Seven Dao Lords of the Great Wei Dynasty were nominally governed by the Grand Secretary, so of course he had to visit this Shangguan.

However, he came to the Yiluansi General Office and submitted a famous post, but was told by a minor official that the head of the Grand Secretary was sick and was not suitable to see guests. He asked Lord Zhou to go back.

Zhou Fan: “…”

He understood that Dongmen's flute playing was not wanting to see him. He had heard that Dongmen's flute playing was a rare neutral faction in the court. Now it seems that the rumors are true...

When he was playing the flute at the east gate, he did not stay outside for a long time. Instead, he got on a carriage and returned to the academy. His three sons were in the academy. He was a little worried. After finishing the work, he didn't want to stay outside.

When he returned to his own residence in the academy, he found that Zhou Xiaobai and his three were practicing seriously, while the little sister was sleeping on her lying down. He breathed a sigh of relief and felt that his worries were really unnecessary.

With Xiaobai and the other three who didn’t care about everything, how could they leave their residence?

But at noon, someone was calling him outside his residence, "Are Master Zhou here?"

Zhou Fan made gestures to Xiaobai and the other three stopped practicing. Zhou Fan replied: "Who is here?"

He opened the door and found that it was the gatekeeper of the academy. He entered and exited the academy, so he had some impression of the gatekeeper.

The academy concierge can enter here, so naturally it is only allowed to be allowed.

"Mr. Zhou, here are three invitations for you." The concierge handed the three invitations to Zhou Fan, "These three invitations were about the same time, so I sent them together."

He explained that he had not delayed it.

invitation?

Zhou Fan's face was calm. He took the invitation and thanked him. After the concierge left, he closed the door before carefully looking at the red invitation.

He doesn't have many familiar people in the mirror, so who would invite him?

He opened the three invitations and looked at them one by one. After reading the three invitations, his face became weird.

The invitees of the three invitations are all very noble and consistent, and they are all princes of the Great Wei!

The invitations were sent by the eldest prince, the forty-five princes, and the one hundred and one prince.

The eldest prince invited him to enjoy the spring flowers.

The forty-fifth prince invited him to attend the poetry meeting.

One hundred and one prince invited him to watch the martial arts competition.

Zhou Fan looked at the three invitations and became silent. He understood that this was probably a win-win situation, and behind it was the dispute over the inheritance of the throne between the princes.

The Emperor of the Great Wei reigned for more than two hundred years. If he had no health problems, he would have lived for a long time. After all, he was not an ordinary person.

So before he came to Jingdu, he never considered the issue of the prince.

Could it be that the body of the Emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty was in danger, and the princes of the Great Wei Dynasty had already begun to compete for the right of inheritance?

If this is the case, then he, the Lord of One Dao, will of course become the target of his struggle.

But it shouldn't be. If there was a physical problem with the Emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty, it would be impossible for the Academy to not disclose any news to him.

Or maybe he was thinking too much.

Zhou Fan thought about it for a while, and then he said to Xiaobai and the other two, left the residence, came to the outside of Mr. Grandpa's residence and called out. After no one responded, he took out the message talisman and sent a message to Mr. Grandpa.

After a lot of trouble, he found Duanmu Xiaohong, handed over three invitations to Duanmu Xiaohong, and briefly said the matter.

Duanmu Xiaohong looked at the invitation casually. He thought for a while and said, "You are the Taoist lord. Now that you are here in Jingdu, they want to win you over. In Jingdu, the princes have always been very active. As long as they do not violate the laws and regulations of the Great Wei Dynasty, the emperor has always been too lazy to pay attention to them, so you don't have to think too much."

The Great Mr. said this, it was not that there was a physical problem with the Emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty, but the princes were doing it regularly... Zhou Fan thought silently, and he quickly said, "Then how should I deal with these invitations?"

"This..." Duanmu Xiaohong said helplessly: "I have always been not good at these things... By the way, I can find Junior Brother No. 5 to listen to his opinions. He recently said that he wanted to meet you."

Zhou Fan soon met Chen Zheng, the sage's fifth disciple, in the academy.

"Mr. Five." Zhou Fan smiled and bowed and said, "Thank you for your care all the time."

He was able to go so smoothly in the officialdom, and the academy civil servant faction gave a lot of support, and the academy civil servants were mainly led by Chen Zheng. Even if the great master did not say it, Zhou Fan knew that Chen Zheng had put in a lot of efforts here.

Chen Zheng laughed and said, "Since you call me Mr. Fifth, I won't call you Lord Zhou."

"Mr. Fifth, just call me Zhou Fan." Zhou Fan said that the other party was older than him, and even if he called him his name, it was nothing.

Chen Zheng responded politely, he chatted with Zhou Fan, but was observing Zhou Fan. When he saw Zhou Fan, he didn't understand why the teacher and senior brother valued this person so much?

You should know that Zhou Fan joined the academy halfway. Of course, Zhou Fan has now proved his strength. Even a core disciple trained by the academy would not be able to become the master of the Tao at this age.

Zhou Fan became the leader of Hanbei Dao. Even though the Taoist was mainly alienated from all factions on the surface... it was also very helpful to the academy.

After chatting for a few moments, Zhou Fan told all the troubles he encountered.

Chen Zheng calmed down and listened carefully. After listening, he picked up the invitation and looked at it, and smiled relaxedly, "This is easy to solve. It depends on what you want to do. If you don't want to go, then you will push it all. If you want to meet these princes, you have to go all of them."

Zhou Fan was slightly stunned, he was a little confused.

"You are a foreign minister who holds great power. It's best if you don't see any of them. Then you are just showing that you don't want to make good friends with the prince. In this way, no one dares to say anything after they understand." Chen Zheng explained.

"The same is true for you to go. If you don't refuse the invitation, you will meet all of them. That means you are just having a polite social engagement and don't want to offend the prince. They will also understand."

"I can understand that everything is gone, but if I go to see it, will it make the emperor dislike?" Zhou Fan frowned.

In his opinion, isn’t it a big taboo to have something to do with the prince?

"If other countries might be like this," Chen Zheng chuckled, "But the emperor would not care about such things. In Jingdu, no matter which minister in the court can contact the prince openly, and no one has ever been punished for it."

"The Lord is so kind." Zhou Fan praised for a moment of silence. He originally thought that as a king, he would definitely be very afraid of such things, but he did not expect that the person would turn a blind eye to it.

It was really turned a blind eye, otherwise Chen Zheng would not have said so.

"The Lord is kind, but you are the Taoist lord after all, so you should pay attention to the influence and don't let some people find the opportunity to impeach you, so you either don't see you or see them all." Chen Zheng said again.

"I don't know much about the princes, I hope Mr. Fifth will tell me something about them." Zhou Fan already had some thoughts on this matter, but he still wanted to know more.
