An Zhilu's expression was a little ugly.

Just based on Zheng Zhongxia's words, he knew that he had no secret in front of the emperor, Gu Shiwu and others at this time.

The emperor used him just because he happened to be the enemy Li's confidentiality.

"Thank you for your advice."

He thanked Zheng Zhongxia seriously and asked again, "But why do you want to mention me?"

"Thank you for saving my life." Zheng Zhongxia looked at his extremely ugly face and smiled faintly, "Besides, people with the same encounters are often prone to resonance, while those who survive in the cracks will establish a more reliable Tongmeng."

An Zhilu pondered for a while and said sincerely, "I never thought before that a person like me would be considered by the powerful and powerful family as people of the same encounter."

"I appreciate your honesty at this time." Zheng Zhongxia looked at him and said seriously. "Compared with the Tang Dynasty, what you lack most now is the understanding of the rules of the operation of the entire court. You have no foundation in the court, but you have made great achievements before. You have a good relationship with the clans of Youzhou and can easily gain their support. Hua Huaixian is dead. Xu Tuibei was originally an outsider. Although his official rank is above you, he did not manage it carefully before. In fact, no matter whether he is still in Youzhou or not, as long as you can return to Youzhou, you will be the most influential figure in the entire Youzhou military. Moreover, you have not been punished, and you have performed well in Fufeng County. As long as you return to Youzhou, your official rank will naturally be promoted. Unless the emperor or some big figure deliberately blocks it, the position of the Youzhou Jiedushi is natural for you, and the officials in the court will not have much opposition."

An Zhilu took another deep breath and fell silent.

Xu Tuibei had also taught him with all his heart and strength before, but Xu Tuibei was essentially an old border army and was not a powerful man who truly understood the rules of the operation of the Tang Dynasty. Zheng Zhongxia now just mentioned him in a simple and straightforward way, and his mind seemed to be enlightened all of a sudden.

The emperor used him just because he had enough value to use it. Zheng Zhongxia showed such an intention at this time. In addition to wanting to survive in the Ancestral Dragon Underground Palace, the more important reason was not that people with the same encounter resonated with each other, but that the Hiroku in front of him had already brought him a huge shock.

This stone armor that can resist the sound and earthquake method, the arrows that obviously belong to magic weapons on the shelves, the weapons maps on the walls, and the brand new bronze crossbows...

Even if it is just a Hidden Hyoku or a lot of Qin magic tools, it will be of great significance to support him to become the governor of Youzhou.

Although the emperor strongly protected the Zheng family, under the storm of many clans, the Zheng family will definitely lose many positions in the court. Once such clans decline in their strength, their future situation will become more and more difficult.

At this time, the Zheng family needs to establish new forces to support it.

If the military power of Duke Pei was disintegrated, then the Jiedushi who held heavy troops would have a lot of voice in the Tang Dynasty.

But my background is known to the emperor and Gu Liubai, can I still have the opportunity to become the governor of Youzhou?

Most children of the family have been undergoing various teachings since childhood. From a very young age, they have learned to control the expressions on their faces and learn not to let others see their true emotions. Just like the prince, even under the surveillance of countless people in the palace, they can always hide their true cultivation and even their true character.

But An Zhilu grew up in the streets and alleys since she was young. A person like him has never experienced the teachings of famous teachers. So even if he tried his best to hide the true thoughts in his heart, in fact, this deliberate hiding will make people feel hypocritical and disgusted at a glance.

This is why Pei Yunqi didn't like him at first sight.

In fact, he is the same in Zheng Zhongxia's eyes.

So when he first entered the underground palace to say those things, Zheng Zhongxia half-jokingly said that he was buying people's hearts.

At this time, Zheng Zhongxia also saw his shrewdness, his greed and carefulness.

But he didn't care.

He smiled and said, "All the powerful will not feel at ease to put the eggs in a basket. You should know that the emperor and Duke Pei Guo, Gu Shiwu are allies now, but no matter how good the ally is, even if they are really at ease, there will definitely be some means to check and balance. For the emperor, you may be a good choice. For the rest of the forces in the court, as long as you have the opportunity to show your strength, you may be the best choice in their eyes. Gu Liubai dislikes you because of Xu Tuibei, which will make them hope to push you to the top."

An Zhilu was not in a hurry to answer.

He just nodded and said nothing.

Zheng Zhongxia also saw that in the face of such a person, no kindness or tricks were useful, so he just told some facts casually, hoping that this young mud-legged man could truly understand the operating rules of the Tang Dynasty.

He looked at An Zhilu and said calmly, "In fact, the facts prove that the emperor's move to abolish the prince was not wrong. The deposed prince sent someone to assassinate you on his way out because he didn't like you. How could he sit on that dragon throne with such a temperament? What kind of person should the emperor of the Tang Dynasty be like? The emperor of the Tang Dynasty may not like everyone in the world. He may hate many ambitious people, but he cannot use dark means to remove those who don't like. All kinds of talents formed this Tang Dynasty. A qualified emperor must use all the people in the world to do the best of his own."

An Zhilu said seriously again at this time, "Thank you for your advice."

Zheng Zhongxia nodded and said, "As long as not all secrets of the Zulong Underground Palace are exposed to the world, not all places are excavated and entered at will, for the Tang Dynasty, you will always have the value of existence. And as long as you can go out alive, the prince's assassination of you will become a ladder for you to climb up."

An Zhilu might not be able to figure it out before, but now he has already learned it. He looked at Zheng Zhongxia and said, "Will the emperor use me to deal with the prince?"

"It's not just the emperor." Zheng Zhongxia looked at An Zhilu, as if you still had to study hard. He smiled and said, "After the battle between Wang Yehu and Zheng Zhu and Lin Fu, all the clans knew that no one in the world could truly threaten the Li family's country. Now no one cares about how the emperor and Li family will fight. It doesn't matter who wins or loses. What's important is that any giant beast will fall off a large piece of flesh and blood when injured, and everyone stares at the falling meat. Li family wants to use the deposed prince to gain sympathy from the people, want to use the prince as a banner and have something to resist outside.

Heng's power, and for the emperor, the prince may be a big fish he deliberately released, because he is very clear about the prince's ability. Sometimes he puts some power in the hands of the prince, and he is more at ease because such an enemy is not difficult to deal with. For the other clans, the prince is the largest piece of meat that fell from the biting of two giant beasts. Since you can easily arouse the prince's anger, using you as bait may make the prince do more unwise things. As for you, in this process, you can try your best to show the strength that makes many people excited, and you can also eat a few more pieces of meat with us."

"Of course, the premise is that we can go out alive." Zheng Zhongxia curled her smile, then looked at An Zhilu and said, "Now you should understand what I really mean?"

An Zhilu pondered for a moment and said, "Actually, there is no need to work hard. In this situation, I have enough value when I am alive."

Zheng Zhongxia nodded, looked at the weapons in front of her that were shining with a cold light, and said, "Actually, if you bring some arrows and bronze spears out now, it will be enough to prove your value."

An Zhilu nodded.

He is very clear at this moment and agrees with Zheng Zhongxia’s statement at this time.

But at this moment, there were still words in his mind.

If people like them want to have true glory, wealth and the world's first-class scenery, they must bet on their lives, that is, they need courage that others do not have.

Not finished.

Nothing makes sense.

This truth seemed more transparent in his mind after Zheng Zhongxia woke up like a sudden enlightenment.

It is still a bit dangerous to find a way to save your life now. Instead of doing this, it is better to bet on your life and get something he really wants. It can cooperate with Zheng Zhongxia's idea and be of great use in the future.

"I'm going to another place."

He looked at Zheng Zhongxia and grinned, no longer the shrunk he used to be, "If you feel dangerous, stay here and wait for me."

Zheng Zhongxia glanced at Han Chuijin.

Han Chuijin was just barely dead at this time, and it was impossible for him to walk around wearing stone armor.

"Where do you want to go?" he asked first.

An Zhilu took a look at the catalogs on the wall of Hirou and said, "Although these things are pretty good, they are not the most powerful things of Zulong. I want to go to a place where some of the most powerful magical instruments in his army are made of."

Zheng Zhongxia hesitated for a moment and said, "I'll go with you."

"Bring him." An Zhilu looked at Han Chuijin with a little despair and said, "I have always had this temper on the battlefield. I have been born and died and I will never let go of my brothers who can take them away."

Zheng Zhongxia couldn't help laughing. He looked at An Zhilu and said seriously, "As long as you can go out alive, you will definitely succeed."

An Zhilu knew that he was talking about the Youzhou Jiedushi who had an unprecedented status in the Tang Dynasty after Duke Pei's military power was divided.

But he just smiled.
