Chapter 8: Intimacy
On the second day, Zuo Qinyun broke into Jinyi Weibei Town, Fusi and Zhao Prison alone, and took away the life of a key criminal named Li Chengke from Zhao Prison, and the news spread in Jinling City, and there was an uproar in the court.
In addition to lamenting Zuo Qinyun's courage, the court was even more surprised that Jinyiwei could be so weak this time and let the people from Dongchang ride directly on his head. But think about it carefully, in less than a year, this prince and the Dongchang he established have handled dozens of big cases, and each of them is to punish the big greedy and evil people, inside and outside the court in addition to the fear of his means, but more people applaud, after all, this person has never done anything to the people of Li and the ministers of the humerus, and what he killed and destroyed were all corrupt and perverted by the people. Compared with Jinyiwei, the newly established East Factory seems to be more decent.
"Your Highness, the minister has something important to play!"
A person from the Fengtian Hall walked out of the queue and bowed to His Royal Highness the Prince.
Zhu Gaochi twisted his fat body, stretched out his hand to smooth his body, and asked.
"I don't know what to play?"
"Back to Your Highness, last night the eunuch Zuo Sishang of Dongchang broke into Jinyi Weizhao Prison without permission, and also took away a life of important criminals in the court, this matter is illegal, the minister thinks it is inappropriate, and asks His Highness to decide to let Gong Shang give an explanation?"
Zhu Gaochi looked at Zuo Qinyun on the right in surprise, seeing that his eyes were looking into the distance, he didn't seem to care at all, he looked at Young Master Yao on the left, and found that Yao Guangxiao closed his eyes and just shook his head slightly.
Zhu Gaochi nodded and looked at the ministers below.
"Mr. Gao doesn't have to ask about this matter, everything he does has his reasons......
"Your Highness! It's just that I don't know when Lord Gao got close to Jinyiwei, and the commander of Ji Gangji didn't come out to speak, you ......"
Zuo Qinyun nodded at Zhu Gaochi, then looked at the people below and asked.
"Gong Xiang is too careful, I just think this matter is inappropriate, and it has nothing to do with Lord Ji Gang Ji of Jinyiwei."
Zuo Qinyun shook off his embroidered robe and snorted coldly.
"Then don't worry about Lord Gao, what's wrong, I think Commander Ji will find me in person, you better do your own thing!" And also...... I hope you're a good officer, or don't let me take the handle! ”
"This ...... I am loyal and patriotic, and Your Highness will know what I am thinking, you ...... Don't make things difficult for me by saying some trumped-up charges, I will not compromise! ”
Zuo Qinyun smiled.
"When did I say that Lord Gao's sin, where to start with these three words, I just hope that Lord Gao is a good official, is there anything wrong with my original intention? Is it against the original intention of the tall man to be an official? ”
"No, no, no...... Naturally not, I was originally a good official, you, you, you...... Don't talk nonsense in front of Your Highness. ”
"I hope so!"
Zuo Qinyun glared at Master Gao angrily, so frightened that his forehead was uncomfortable, and his forehead was constantly sweating.
"So good! The original intention of the tall man and the prince is to be for me in the Ming Dynasty and for my country, only to seek the same dynasty as an official, everyone treats each other in harmony, and there is no gap. ”
"Your Highness said yes!"
Zuo Qinyun bowed lightly at Zhu Gaochi, and all the ministers bowed in return, and no one dared to mention Zuo Qinyun's forced entry into Jinyi Weizhao Prison last night to take away Li Chengke.
After retiring from the dynasty, Zuo Qinyun returned to his residence, this is a secluded place near Bei'anmen, the yard is not very big, it is quiet and elegant, there is nothing else in the yard except for a few old trees and a plum tree that Zuo Qinyun asked to transplant, Zuo Qinyun does not like others to disturb, so there is no one to serve here and outside.
Zuo Qinyun tied the white horse to a paulownia tree, and happily ran towards the house, shouting loudly without waiting to open the door.
"Li Chengke, Li Chengke, I'm back!"
"So early?"
Li Chengke stayed alone in the house, slept late last night, and he hadn't slept well for more than a year, and he was accompanied by his wife last night and talked for a long time, so he got up a little late today, he thought that the officials above the court would always say something about the affairs of the people in the world, and I was afraid that the dynasty would not be finished in a few hours, but he didn't expect that his wife would come back after less than a stick of incense.
Zuo Qinyun didn't have time to take off the beautifully carved crown on his head, so he threw himself directly into Li Chengke's arms.
"Do you dislike me coming back early?"
Li Chengke replied: "Naturally not, I thought that things were complicated in the court, and you always had to stay longer, but I didn't expect that there were so few things, is the world really so peaceful?" ”
"Naturally not, there are no big things to say in the court, most of the important things are said in private, they say that they don't want to care, they just want to come back early to see you, so I ran back early!"
"Nonsense!"
Li Chengke pushed Zuo Qinyun away and said sharply.
"Since you are an official of the imperial court, you should do something to help the people of Li Min, how can you ignore the people of Li people in the world because of your temporary love for children?"
Zuo Qinyun angrily threw the cloak on his body to Li Chengke, and said angrily.
"What do you know, this court is not mine, I can only do what I do, and other things are naturally done by others, and what I want to do is to use my means to deter these people, so that they dare not be corrupt and pervert the law and dare not oppress the people, do you think I cover the sky with one hand? Don't forget that the world is still the Zhu family after all, and the well-being of the people in the world is still up to the Zhu family, whether you understand it or not. ”
Li Chengke smiled awkwardly.
"It's mine, no, it's just that I have to think about being an official in the court, and the people of Li haven't thought of these meticulous places, don't get angry, don't get angry!"
"Humph! It's no wonder if you're not angry! You haven't asked me a word since you came out for a day, why am I the way I am now, why are others afraid to die when they see me, you deliberately hide it in your heart and don't ask, are you thinking this? ”
didn't think that Li Chengke's wrong sentence once again ignited the fire in Zuo Qinyun's heart, and she left one question and threw out another question.
"Because I already knew, I didn't ask you, and I know that you must be doing this for me and for you, I may be able to understand!"
"What?"
Zuo Qinyun looked at Li Chengke in surprise.
"You already knew? Why is that? Who told you that? ”
"Yao Guangxiao, the black-clothed prime minister of the dynasty, and your third brother......"
Zuo Qinyun frowned after hearing this, he thought in his heart that Yao Guangxiao told Li Chengke that he didn't have any doubts about why the third brother had also looked for him.
"Do you know Zheng Sanbao?"
Li Chengke snorted.
"Do you remember the years I disappeared?"
Hearing this, Zuo Qinyun's mind flashed Zhao Xinyi's face, and he couldn't help but grit his teeth viciously.
"How can you forget, you and other women...... Hum! ”
"That's who met your third brother at that time? Miss Zhao and I inadvertently boarded your third brother's ocean-going ship in order to avoid pursuit, and later because I knew some medical skills, I was left on the ship, and drifted overseas with them for more than three years, until your third brother returned to the Central Plains. ”
Li Chengke talked about the experience a few years ago, and couldn't help but think of this Zhao girl from the Hengshan faction.
"Do you think of your Miss Zhao?"
When Li Chengke was reminiscing about the past, his wife next to him directly punctured his thoughts, and he did not avoid it.
"Yes! But don't be too careful, I only miss Miss Zhao because she is friends and after all, we have been wandering for several years, and we are both concerned about each other's safety. ”
Zuo Qinyun took a deep breath, and his snow-white face was flushed.
"Remember each other's safety, what a good love sentence! Then I'll tell you, which Zhao girl I saw you in Xuzhou a year ago, and I killed her with my own hands, do you want to kill me to avenge her? ”
"Don't say these angry words, if there is anything in my heart that can't stand you, will I tell you these inner words word by word? I, Li Chengke, have only been a wife to you in my life, and I only want to spend my life with you, no matter how good other women are, they are just confidants, and Miss Zhao is naturally too. ”
Li Chengke reached out and grabbed Zuo Qinyun's hand and took her into his arms.
"Cut, I'm still not happy, my heart is uncomfortable, you make me something delicious to dissipate the anger in my heart...... Luckily! ”
Zuo Qinyun raised her head in Li Chengke's arms, and looked at her husband with a pair of clear and smiling eyes.
"Well said! You rest for a while, and I'll go cook. ”
"Don't rest, I'm going to be with you, I'll give you a hand, hehe!"
After speaking, he stood on tiptoe and kissed Li Chengke on the lips, and then continued.
"When you're done eating, I'll take you to meet someone, okay?"
"Is it the county lord?"
Li Chengke looked at Zuo Qinyun and asked softly.
"Yes! If you want to see it, if you don't, you'll be gone! ”
"See! I also want to thank the county lord, if it weren't for her kindness, how could I have the opportunity to meet you, and I, Li Chengke, would not be so lucky and happy in this life! ”
Zuo Qinyun hurriedly looked carefully into Li Chengke's eyes.
"It's lucky to meet me! Is it happiness? You have no regrets? ”
Li Chengke looked at Zuo Qinyun in surprise.
"Nature is the luckiest and happiest thing, if I look back on the past after a hundred years, I may have a lot of regrets, but only when I meet you and marry you as a wife is absolutely no regrets, and this one thing is enough for me to forget all the regrets of the past."
"If you want to say that, you feel so stressed, I don't do well at all!"
Zuo Qinyun's eyes were red, and as she spoke, she frowned, curled the corners of her mouth, smiled coquettishly at Li Chengke, and then jumped on top of him, hugged his neck tightly, and the two went to cook together.
