"Thank you, Master!" Xun Mou sat down politely, and said in a pretended calm greeting, "Master, what kind of book are you reading?" ”

Zhou Zhongwang put down the teacup in his hand and coughed lightly, "It's nothing, this is an article written by the saint in previous years, take a look!" How? It's been a long time since you've come to see you as a teacher, so you're here today, isn't that just to say this? ”

Xun Mou's eyes were red at this time, he stood up and walked to the center of the hall, flicked his sleeves and bowed, and said while crying: "Master, save the apprentice!" Help me! ”

Zhou Zhongwang said sharply: "What do you say?" ”

"Master, if you don't save me again, I'm afraid that the apprentice will live up to your reputation, and the apprentice's years of hard work will be in vain!" Xun Mou burst into tears, crying uncontrollably.

Zhou Zhongwang took a deep breath, closed his eyes slightly, and spit out a sentence for a long time: "Okay, what are you crying about!" ”

Xun Mou stopped sobbing, choked up, and said, "Master, do you know something......

"Alright, stop talking!" Zhou Zhongwang opened his eyes and glanced at Xun Mou impatiently, "The teacher knows what you mean!" In this matter, being a teacher can't help you. ”

"This ......" Xun Mou was stunned for a moment, "How come, only if you come forward in this matter, the emperor will listen to you!" ”

"Hey......" Zhou Zhongwang sighed, "If the emperor wanted to be selected as a teacher, he would have let him be in command a long time ago, why now!" The teacher is already a person who is buried in half of the loess to the waist, and now the saint is thinking about cultivating new people, you let the teacher go to the emperor to ask for help now, if it is rejected again, where can you let the old face of the teacher go! Zhou Zhongwang couldn't help frowning at the end, and regretted the fact that he took the initiative to ask for help before, thinking that now that he is older, it is better to enjoy his old age at home.

Xun Mou looked at the master with a confused expression, he couldn't speak for a long time, and thought for a long time before he burst out with a sentence, "But Master, if that's the case, the disciple will really never turn over!" ”

"I brought you up as a teacher, and now you can be on your own, many things, it's up to you to decide! It's time to quit the court as a teacher! Zhou Zhongwang said emotionally, and his eyes were red, "Now I regret being a teacher, shouldn't I have retired to the rivers and lakes like you Xu Shibo!" Hey......"

Xun Mou saw that his master was depressed, and knew that the emperor did not entrust him with a heavy task last time, and he is still haunted by it, his master is a face-loving person, and this incident is estimated to have a great impact on his emotions, "Master, you don't know, do you remember Lu Zuo?" ”

"Lu Zuo?" Zhou Zhongwang pondered for a moment and continued, "Of course I remember, he is your uncle's apprentice, isn't it, he was still competing with you in Kuji Temple last time!" How? Isn't he already dead? ”

Xun Mou said anxiously: "Master, how do you know that he is not dead, he is still alive, and he entered the palace to meet the saint today!" ”

"What?" Zhou Zhongwang was also really frightened, stood up and asked, "How could the Holy Lord summon him?" ”

Xun Mou stood up, walked up to the master, asked him to sit back first, and then whispered a few words in the master's ear. Zhou Zhongwang's face changed greatly, and he asked in surprise: "Really!" ”

"It's true!"

Zhou Zhongwang listened, gasped, Lu Zuo reappeared, and was received by the emperor, this is not a good thing, at least not for his apprentice, Lu Zuo came back and made enemies with whomever he wanted, he could not ask, but only for himself, a beloved disciple who regarded him as his own, he must not turn a blind eye. Zhou Zhongwang continued to ask: "Lu Zuo appeared again this time, is it just for Shanzhou?" ”

"That's right, I have a hunch that he's coming for me!"

"I wonder as a teacher! The last time he suddenly appeared, it made the teacher feel confused, from beginning to end, the teacher felt that his appearance always had a sense of mystery, and every time it made people feel that he was not so simple? Zhou Zhongwang fell into endless contemplation again, and thought about all the things about Lu Zuo again, "Mou'er, do you think ......?"

Zhou Zhongwang wanted to speak and stopped, and the feeling seemed indescribable. Seeing that the master was silent, Xun Mou asked curiously, "What do you think?" ”

"I can't say it's a teacher...... Zhou Zhongwang suddenly remembered with his decades of experience, "Do you think that every time Lu Zuo appears, it will make people feel uneasy!" ”

Xun Mou's feeling seemed to be broken by the master's words, and he nodded in agreement, and said: "That's right, that's the feeling, this time Lu Zuo came back from the dead and reappeared, which made the apprentice even more uneasy!" He appeared so suddenly this time, it was so unexpected! ”

"Oh? How is this possible? Zhou Zhongwang looked at Xun Mou in surprise, "Aren't you aware of it at all?" ”

"What about the futile children?" Xun Mou sighed twice, "I heard that his residence was on fire, and even people were burned to the ground, but I didn't expect to appear in the palace again today!" ”

When Zhou Zhongwang heard this, he also began to be suspicious in his heart, and couldn't help but ask again, "Are you sure it's him?" ”

"This can't be wrong, it must be him!"

"It seems that Lu Zuo is really not good at coming this time!"

"That's right!" Xun Mou also suddenly realized, "And Lu Zuo must have the help of a master, otherwise how could a person who has only one breath left in prison recover as before." When he was in prison, his apprentices had already broken his tendons and tendons, how could a normal person survive? ”

"What?" Zhou Zhongwang listened to it, and then took the case again, "How can you break someone's tendons and hamstrings?" ”

Xun Mou saw that the master was so angry, and with a "poof", he knelt on the ground again, "Master is angry, this is also to get rid of future troubles!" ”

Zhou Zhongwang shook his head with some disdain, "You, you!" Lu Zuo is your uncle's close disciple and your fellow brother, if you really kill him like this, how can you be worthy of your uncle and your ancestor? Since he has been imprisoned, he naturally has a holy judgment, so why should you get involved? ”

"It's come to this point, it's useless to talk about it, I'm just afraid of ......"

"What are you afraid of! Why didn't you tell me about this matter in advance! Zhou Zhongwang said sharply.

"This ......" Xun Mou almost wanted to cry without tears, "How dare the apprentice tell you this from the master!" The important thing now is not this, the important thing is that Lu Zuo is involved in the court this time, according to the disciple, his purpose is not as simple as we think! ”

This made Zhou Zhongwang even more uneasy, and nodded in agreement, "That's polite!" ”
