Yunzhou is located in the southwest, and there are many mountains and mountains in the territory, which is divided into twelve counties.

Among them, Zhennan King's fief occupies six counties, which is equivalent to dividing the entire Yunzhou into two.

In the entire Yunzhou, there are two de facto administrative centers, one is the "Chancheng" where the state government is located, and the other is the "Nanwang Town" where the Zhennan Palace is located.

At this moment, Nanwang Town is in the middle.

Zhang Yao was wandering on the long street, wearing a blue shirt and carrying a bag, he was still in his forties.

"Unexpectedly, in just ten years, this place has become so prosperous."

He visited more than half of Nanwang Town, feeling a little emotional in his heart.

Ten years ago, the King of Zhennan was awarded the title of Yunzhou, but he did not choose to build a mansion in a certain county, but built a palace on the remote "Panlong Ridge".

This Panlong Ridge was originally a barren mountain with few people, but after the completion of the palace, many people moved in one after another, gradually forming a large market town.

Today, Nanwang Town has a population of tens of thousands, and because of the existence of Zhennanwang Mansion, its prosperity is no less than that of some county towns.

"This Zhennan Prince's Mansion is really extravagant."

Zhang Yao stood on the top of an attic, looking at the magnificent palace complex surrounded by mountains and rivers in the distance.

There are less than ten people in the Zhennan Palace, but there are thousands of soldiers, guards, servants, maids, chefs, gardeners, etc. in the Palace.

With thousands of people serving such a family, the level of luxury is no less than that of an emperor, even the former Zhang Yao is far behind.

In fact, the entire Nanwang Town is completely centered around Zhennanwangfu to serve them.

As the prince who split the soil and sealed off the border, the Zhennan Prince's Mansion is within the fiefdom of the six counties. It can formulate laws, collect taxes, and appoint and dismiss officials. It is like a country within a country.

"call……"

Zhang Yao took a deep breath and let it out slowly, his eyes were deep.

After leaving Jiangzhou, he was already mentally prepared to stay here for a long time.

Zhennan Palace, he is not going to touch it.

He didn't need to inquire about news, plan secretly, or go deep into the tiger's den. All these tasks were done for him by Emperor Yu Wenze.

All he has to do is to wait for the opportunity silently, and just act as an oriole at the critical moment.

"It seems that I have to go back to my old job again."

Thinking of this, Zhang Yao had a smile on his face.

…………

In Nanwang Town, a new medical clinic "Ren Shou Tang" opened.

Doctor Zhang, who opened the clinic, has superb medical skills, and soon became famous. He also took in several apprentices and gradually integrated into the local area.

After thirty years of ups and downs:

Ren Shou Tang is already a well-known and time-honored brand in Nanwang Town. Although Doctor Zhang who sits in the hall cannot be called a miracle doctor with wonderful hands and rejuvenation, he can treat most diseases, and his medical skills and medical ethics are well-known.

This afternoon:

"Ahem..."

Zhang Yao's hair was gray, his eyes were cloudy, his old face was full of wrinkles, his movements were slow, and he coughed from time to time.

He was a little hunchbacked, leaning on crutches alone, and came out of the hall slowly.

"Master, slow down!"

Several apprentices rushed over to greet him and helped Zhang Yao onto the reclining chair.

"Well, you guys are busy."

Zhang Yao waved his hand weakly, nestled on the recliner, basking in the sun comfortably.

"Why……"

Seeing his appearance, several apprentices looked at each other, feeling a little sad.

Thirty years have passed, and their master is almost eighty years old. Even though he is proficient in medical skills and health preservation, he obviously doesn't have much time to live.

"Master has no children. I don't know who will pass this Renshou Hall to after he goes west..."

With such thoughts in mind, several apprentices returned to the front hall, and began to compete openly and secretly again.

"It's really not reassuring."

Zhang Yao glanced at them, then retracted his gaze, thinking secretly in his heart.

"These days, those people's activities have become more and more frequent, and I'm afraid they will do it in the near future..."

He has been waiting for more than thirty years.

In Nanwang Town, he had been an ordinary doctor for more than 30 years on the surface, and his medical skills were controlled at a mere good level, without surpassing at all.

Once the medical skills are too good, what should I do if I get the attention of Zhennan Wangfu's family and summon him into the Wangfu if necessary?

He can be sure that the old fairy's family is in Zhennan Prince's Mansion, his martial arts are too high, maybe it will arouse the vigilance of the other party, he dare not take this risk.

"At the beginning, the King of Zhennan resisted all opinions and insisted on running to this barren mountain to build a palace, which was very suspicious."

"Nine times out of ten, it's just to meet the needs of that old fairy..."

Zhang Yao rubbed his chin, thoughts flooded his mind.

For more than thirty years, although he has been dormant, he has not done nothing.

Although he has never entered the Zhennan Palace, he has quietly infiltrated from various aspects and controlled the first-hand information inside the Zhennan Palace.

The officials in charge of Nanwang Town, the dispatched managers of the Wangfu, the people doing black work for the Wangfu, the concubine secretly raised by a noble son of the Wangfu, the wealthy businessman who is responsible for providing top-level luxury enjoyment to the Wang family in Zhennan...

These people are not in the Zhennan Palace, but through them, they can understand all aspects of the Palace.

On this point, Zhang Yao tried his best to be cautious, and adopted the same method as he used to control Zhang Yong back then, to ensure that he could stay behind the scenes to the greatest extent possible.

Not only that:

About four or five years ago, he discovered that there was a group of lurking people in Nanwang Town, suspected to be sent by Emperor Yu Wenze, who were also monitoring the Zhennan Palace through some secret channels.

It has to be said that the whole family of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion came from mud-legged backgrounds. Except for the old fairy's family, they have no background at all, and they can't even discover the existence of these people.

As for that old fairy——

The only information Zhang Yao learned was that there was indeed a very senior ancestor in Zhennan Wang's mansion, but he had been hiding for a long time, and the children and grandchildren of Zhennan Wang rarely had the opportunity to see him.

"Soon, soon."

Zhang Yao's eyes were deep, looking in the direction of Zhennan Palace, he whispered secretly:

"I've been waiting for so many years, it's not too late..."

…………

half year later.

Four martial arts masters from the north sneaked into Nanwang Town secretly.

On the day they sneaked in, Zhang Yao noticed something, and judged that Emperor Yu Wenze finally couldn't hold back and was ready to strike.

Apparently, through certain channels, he confirmed that the old fairy family of the Zhennan Prince's Mansion has passed away!

Three nights later:

Nanwang Town, the top of Fengyu Pavilion.

Zhang Yao was dressed in black and put on a silver mask that he hadn't used for many years. He stood with his hands behind his back and looked into the distance.

His figure blended into the vast night, several miles away, he saw four figures clearly, quietly turned into the Zhennan Palace, and ran towards the depths of the back house with a clear goal.

Seeing this scene, Zhang Yao raised the corners of his mouth slightly, with a hint of expectation in his eyes:

"It's finally about to start..."
