"Does he still have the face?"

The Empress Dowager snorted coldly and announced Zuo Qiyang's visit.

After a while, Zuo Qiyang had already walked in three steps and two steps, put his hands on his sleeves, knelt on one knee, and hurriedly greeted the Empress Dowager and the Empress.

The Empress Dowager replied from her nose and lowered her eyes to take a sip of tea.

"Do you know to rush back? When I leave the people you brought here, I'm going to leave them alone? ”

When Zuo Qiyang heard this, he hurriedly raised his head, bowed his hand, and was about to explain, when he glanced at Xing Fu standing beside Ah Zi, and his chin was about to fall to his chest.

Seeing Zuo Qiyang like this, the Empress Dowager slammed the tea bowl on the kang table in front of her with a bang, and the tea bowl collided with the tea lid, making a crisp sound.

"Let me ask you, what are you doing with Ah Zi? Do you still expect her to speak for you and cover up your dereliction of duty? ”

Zuo Qiyang came back to his senses at this time, and hurriedly bowed his head and replied: "I don't dare to be humble." ”

But after that, he still glanced at Xing Fu with a puzzled face, and said, "I don't know if this is ......"

The Empress Dowager sneered twice and said, "Do you still have the strength to take care of others?" Take care of yourself first. After that, he thought that if he wanted to hire Xingfu as Ah Zi's accompanying guard, it would not work without going through Zuo Qiyang, so he said coldly: "Today, Ah Zi's sedan chair was attacked, if it wasn't for this strong man to come forward to help, I'm afraid that I don't know where Ah Zi's child is now." Since you are unwilling to escort Xin Zi well, I simply dismissed you from your post and let this strong man replace you, and Xin Zi's safety should be taken care of by Xing Fu in the future. Since you are busy with official business, you can deal with the affairs of Ciyong's side with peace of mind, and I am responsible for the people walking around in my palace, so I don't ask you to do anything more. ”

Listening to the accusations in the Empress Dowager's words, and looking at Ah Zi's extremely well-disguised frightened and overly frightened appearance, and the punishment of the villain standing on the side, Zuo Qiyang naturally saw through the tricks of the two at a glance, but now that the wood is in the boat, he is already at a loss. At this time, if you forcibly debunk the identity of Xingfu. If you really investigate it, you will lose both, and you can only suffer the loss.

After thinking about it, Zuo Qiyang's sullen loss was decided.

His face was as black as the moonless night sky. Gritting his teeth. But they still have to pretend that they don't know anything. accompanied Ah Zi and Xingfu to act, while constantly apologizing for his dereliction of duty, and on the other hand, he respectfully paid tribute to Xingfu as a benefactor. I didn't dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction.

Looking at his deflated appearance, Ah Zi almost laughed.

This is the first time that he has won the scheming Zuo Qiyang like this, and he still won so happily that the other party has no ability to fight back.

Until he returned to Yanfu, Zuo Qiyang's face was not good.

"The criminal guards were appointed in a hurry this time, and they didn't have time to prepare for anything, and I hope Lord Zuo will have a lot of trouble about the matter of settlement."

Sitting in the main hall, the executive's family and a group of servants were gone, the tea bowl held by Zuo Qiyang was pinched and creaked, but Ah Zi was still talking to him like no one.

"Haven't had enough of it? When are you going to install it? Zuo Qiyang looked at Ah Zi coldly, and his tone was gloomy as if he could summon a storm at any time.

But I don't know why, this anger, which can usually frighten the legs of all kinds of people up and down the Yan Mansion, is now in Ah Zi's eyes, but it is like a battle of trapped beasts, and there is no deterrent.

"After a few days, you've learned smartly, huh? Know how to fight back? Zuo Qiyang squinted at Ah Zi, completely without the relaxed look on the other party's face.

Ah Zi looked unsatisfied, and said without thinking that it was a big deal: "Forgive the little ignorance, I don't know what Lord Zuo's words mean?" ”

Zuo Qiyang was really angered by Ah Zi at this time, took a few deep breaths, nodded hatefully, said "good, good", and put down the teacup in his hand.

In the blink of an eye, he had already jumped in front of Xing Fu, pulled out the Longquan sword in his waist, and stabbed straight towards Xing Fu's eyebrows.

Xing Fu was originally standing calmly on the side, his expression was abrupt when he saw this, his waist twisted hard, his shoulders leaned back slightly at an angle, his forehead avoided Zuo Qiyang's sword blade, and at the same time he pulled out his ancient ingot knife and blocked it between himself and Longquan Sword.

The blades coalesced with the blades of the sword, making a piercing grinding sound.

"Stop!" Ah Zi became anxious at this time, stood up and said apologetically, "This matter is my fault, I shouldn't have taken advantage of your absence to play right and wrong, and brought out the empress dowager to press you." ”

Seeing that Ah Zi's attitude of admitting his mistake was quite correct, Zuo Qiyang took back the sword blade that was approaching Xingfu step by step.

At this time, several guards who had been guarding the door heard the movement in the house and rushed over, fighting in a row, showing their neat blades at Xingfu.

Zuo Qiyang retracted his sword with satisfaction, and said to the guards who came in: "It's nothing, I'm just going to try the skills of this criminal guard personally hired by the Empress Dowager and her old man, you all disperse." ”

The platoon of men who had set up their positions and were ready to attack at any time relaxed their swords, withdrew their swords, saluted, and retreated.

Zuo Qiyang sighed softly, returned to his seat, picked up the tea bowl again, and looked at Ah Zi.

Ah Zi understands that he is just angry at this time, he just needs an explanation, he doesn't really want to turn his face, if he really wants to stir up this matter, he can make it clear to the Empress Dowager when he is in the Sacred Heart Temple, how can he wait until now to be majestic in his own home?

Now that this matter is a foregone conclusion, Ah Zi naturally will no longer worry about these little things with Zuo Qiyang, if she can calm things down just by being soft, why wouldn't she do it.

Ah Zi simply told Zuo Qiyang everything from the morning when he set out from the Yan Mansion to the interception of Xingfu and then made this plan with Xingfu, and finally when he entered the palace to pay homage to the Empress Dowager.

Although Zuo Qiyang still didn't say a word, his expression finally eased because Ah Zi was still frank.

"Actually, what I said in front of my ancestor is not entirely a lie," Ah Zi finally said, "Didn't you still worry about my unwillingness to accept the guards you arranged a few days ago?" If I keep Brother Xingfu by my side, this matter will be solved, I have a guard I want, and you don't have to bother to follow me all the time, worrying about my safety. ”

Zuo Qiyang slandered in his heart, you are satisfied, I am afraid that I will have to bear twelve more thoughts in the future to prevent this "guard" of yours from escaping with you. (To be continued.) )
