In the study of Zuofu, behind a simple bamboo screen, there is another scene. Bookshelves are stocked with hardcover books, mahogany chairs, and chairs are upholstered with silk surfaces. On the table, there are a whole number of expensive brushes, and the paperweight is also made of warm jasper.

The carved windows are covered with blue gauze, and the scenery in the garden looms, like a landscape painting of green watercolor.

"Whoa...... ......The wind blew the leaves outside the window, and from time to time there was a loud noise. It seems that there is some kind of unique rhythm, which is monotonous than the silk and bamboo orchestra, but more majestic and natural.

Even though there were so many books, paper and pens in the study, Zuo You didn't read or write a word, he sat on a chair, listening to the wind outside the window, and twisting the beard on his lips with his fingers.

Zuo You's beard has grown, or at least he looks older.

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a cloth robe and combing his hair in a bun walked to the side of the screen, hugged his fists and said, "Ah Lang, the Lord Protector (Luo Yanhuan) is here to visit." ”

Zuo You's brows furrowed when he heard this, and after thinking for a while, he said in a tone mixed with helplessness and displeasure: "Open the door, welcome." ”

"Yes."

Zuo You stopped being in a daze, got up and put it on, tidied up his clothes, and then slowly walked out of the study. In any case, Luo Yanhuan is also a national prince, his identity is there, and the etiquette cannot be wasted. For example, the door that is not opened must be opened, and it cannot be greeted unneatly (otherwise it will be disrespectful), it is just a courtesy.

But this does not mean that Zuo You is really willing to respect Luo Yanhuan...... On the contrary, there was a resentment in my heart: This brother made Lao Tzu miserable!

At the beginning, Luo Yanhuan was worried about Li Chuyun's situation and wanted to find Zuo You to form an alliance. Heaven and earth are for example, Zuo You really doesn't want to mix with them! Even if Zuo You wants to get involved, can he be in such a hurry? He is the teacher of two princes at the same time, what is he anxious about?

But Luo Yanhuan was very disappointed in Zuo You, and when he looked for himself for the first time, he refused very tactfully for the sake of face. Later, he actually used a very faceless method: such as waiting for rabbits at the entrance of the horse street.

In addition, Luo Yanhuan had a great relationship with Zuo You, so the communication between the two made Zuo You feel very unsure.

And this time, I came to the door in a big way...... It is difficult for Zuo You to close the door and not see it, because it is useless. At this time, what does it mean to turn away a national duke? Want to cover it up?

Zuo You walked out of the study, and saw Luo Yanhuan, who was dressed in regular clothes, was brought over, Luo Yanhuan first hugged his fists and said: "Zuo Fuzheng is okay, bother!" ”

Zuo You said: "I should have gone out of the house to greet the protector of the country, but I had to change my clothes because of my untidy clothes, I am afraid that you will be in a hurry to wait outside." ”

"Ha, Zuo Gong likes to stick to those red tapes."

"Please!"

Luo Yanhuan and Zuo You walked into the study, and the two servants immediately came up with tea. Luo Yanhuan waited for the idlers to go out, but he didn't seem to want to be cold, so he pointed to the books on the shelves and said, "Zuo Gong is a well-read person. ”

Zuo You asked quietly: "Has Luo Gong read "Spring and Autumn" and "Historical Records"? ”

Luo Yanhuan shook his head.

Zuo You nodded, and asked again: "The Book of Songs?" ”

Luo Yanhuan was a little embarrassed and said: "The songs that everyone has sung will be memorized." ”

Zuo You had a sudden expression and said softly: "Shi Yanchao doesn't read either, and he doesn't even look down on literati at all. However, he never asked about political affairs, he was purely a military general. ”

Luo Yanhuan said: "What does Zuo Gong ......mean?"

"Sit, tea, please." Zuo Yu made a gesture and looked at it on the left. Because the national minister is obviously higher than him as a cabinet assistant.

The servant who delivered the tea had gone out, and the study was very quiet, except for the "whooshing" sound of nature. Luo Yanhuan lifted the hem of his robe and sat down on the chair, "I don't mean to care about those things, but Brother Li is a brother who has died, and I just wanted to do him a small favor before." ”

Zuo You looked directly at Luo Yanhuan and said slowly: "The problem is that at that juncture, you Luo Gong has nothing to do with the Hexi Army, but you communicate inside and outside. What will the official family think when they find out? ”

"If you don't say this kind of trivial matter, I won't say it, and if the person who sent the letter doesn't say it, the official family will know?" Luo Yanhuan frowned.

Zuo You sat there speechless for a long time, and then pointed to the two teacups on several cases: "On the battlefield, your own people are your own people, and the enemy is the enemy, just like the water in this teacup, I won't bring it to drink if you drink it." But only on the battlefield. ”

Luo Yanhuan was thoughtful, looking at Zuo You's eyes, sometimes confused, sometimes a little suspicious. He shook his head and said, "Can Zuo Gong be happy and don't fight the edge?" ”

Zuo You said: "Zhou Duan sent someone to find me." ”

"Zhou Duan? Oh, I remember, when I was still in the Zhou Dynasty, that rotten confucian? "Luo Yan Ring Road.

Zuo You said: "He is not a corrupt Confucian. After pondering for a moment, Zuo You said again, "This person is a long history in Xuzhou, Xuzhou is the place where the official family is prosperous, and it is a great trust and examination school for him to do a long history there." But what happened? Luo Gong also knew that the Zhao family and a group of people who should have been stiff were able to make waves again in Xuzhou, and even more, Zhou Duan seemed to have accepted bribes from those chaotic parties. ”

"This guy really damns it!" Luo Yanhuan scolded, and wondered, "What did Zuo Gong say he did, what does it mean to mention him now?" ”

Zuo You closed his eyes and muttered weakly, "Zhou Duan really deserves to die, but why did he die, when he was exiled to thousands of people, no one wrote him on the list, and now suddenly someone suggested that he deserved to die?" ”

Luo Yanhuan wiped his forehead and touched his head again, his head was in a strange shape, looking much bigger than his face. His cheeks twitched slightly, and he took a sip of the teacup, "The more Zuo Gong said, the more mysterious it became, which made me panic in my heart...... Zhou Duan's closest friend in Tokyo is Zuo Gongba? ”

Zuo You said calmly: "I also received his money." This kind of thing...... Alas, our civil officials are not as rich as the princes and generals. I really don't know where Zhou Duan's money came from, so I didn't have to ask. ”

Luo Yanhuan began to rub his temples and said, "Wang Pu and the others want to take this matter and get along with Zuo Gong?" ”

Zuo You still had his eyes closed, and he looked weak, as if all the strength in his body had been used elsewhere, "Wang Pu is not enough, the cabinet assistant will go to the political hall at most, and he has a fart relationship with his privy envoy!" But what Huang Binglian thinks in his heart, I can't say clearly, his qualifications and intimacy with the official family are not as good as mine. ”

"Huang Binglian, this official wants to fix you?" Luo Yanhuan's eyes widened.

Zuo You shook his head and said, "If the official family doesn't nod, Huang Binglian doesn't dare to touch me." ”

Luo Yanhuan was finally so anxious that his face turned red, and he scolded: "He|mother|, what do you want to say?" ”

Zuo You opened his eyes, also glared and said: "Maybe what I did is not too serious, and the official family is also a person who misses the old love, so he doesn't want to put me to death; So the implication of borrowing Zhou Duan's money made a big crime...... There is no need to worry about life and wealth, and perhaps wealth and wealth will be preserved, but the future of entering the political hall to take charge of the national policy is over! ”

Luo Yanhuan scratched his head vigorously when he heard this, and said: "The official family has a bold temperament, how can he make things so twisted and twisted? ”

Zuo You said: "The official family is not Shi Yanchao and others, let alone Zuo and others. ”

Luo Yanhuan asked cautiously: "Then I ......?"

Zuo You asked in a very uncertain tone: "At the beginning of the Tokyo Mutiny, Luo Gong had the courage and strategy to occupy the west gate of the imperial city in time, this matter is very important?" ”

Luo Yanhuan said: "I have the wit, but you have too many twists and turns, I really have a headache." ”

Zuo You nodded thoughtfully: "Luo Gong doesn't have to worry too much...... You are a little less capable than the founding prince (Li Chuyun). ”

Not only that, but the key point is that the generals of the state are different from the courtiers, they have neither military power nor real power. As long as there are no unreliable people in the war, there is no need to deal with them at all.

Zuo You said, picked up a few teacups on the table, put them in front of his mouth and blew a breath, but he lifted them again in the air.

Luo Yanhuan was still thinking hard.

Zuo You then put the teacup back and slapped it on the table, scaring Luo Yanhuan. Zuo You stood up and took a long breath: "Duke Luo, please go back first, I will go to the palace and admit my mistake to the official family." ”

Luo Yanhuan was stunned and said: "Zuo Gong said a lot, but I guess that the official family already knows about us......

Zuo You unceremoniously interrupted Luo Yanhuan: "There's nothing between us, it's your business." I just couldn't get off the stage, I saw Luo Gong two or three times for some reason, what else did I do? Have I ever sent a letter to the Founding Father? ”

"You ......" Luo Yanhuan's expression changed, "As soon as you say it in front of the official, what should I do?" ”

Zuo You frowned and said, "I still have to say it clearly, the official family must already know!" Luo Gong, don't feel like I'm betraying you...... If it is a heart, I will tell you before the next meeting, and I will quietly go to the inform. Alas! Now I'm not a human being. ”

Luo Yanhuan grabbed Zuo You and didn't let go, and his face was very nervous.

Zuo You said earnestly: "Brother Luo, you have to think about what kind of person the official family is. Daxu opened the country, how deep the water is, not only most of the civil and military are the old ministers of the Zhou Dynasty, but also many are from the (later) Han Dynasty, and there are even old ministers of the Five Dynasties. If you are a person who is easily deceived, what others say is what it is, and the monarch who has no count in his heart may be like this now? ”

Luo Yanhuan's hand relaxed slightly when he heard this. Zuo Yu quietly grabbed his hand and broke it open.

Unexpectedly, Luo Yanhuan grabbed Zuo You again suddenly: "I'll go with you!" ”

Zuo You was dumbfounded, and was silent for a long time before saying, "If you want to go, you go first...... Today, I will enter the palace early tomorrow morning. ”

…… Luo Yanhuan had no choice but to leave Zuofu, went back for a long time, took a carriage to Xuande Gate, and walked around outside the imperial city several times.

Suddenly, a eunuch stopped the carriage and horses, stepped forward and said: "The official family announced that the Duke of the Protector of the Kingdom went to the Jinxiang Hall to face the saint, yo, it just so happened that the Duke of the Protector has come." The miscellaneous family will take you in. ”

At this time, Luo Yanhuan didn't have to patrol, so he had to get off the carriage and follow the eunuch into the imperial city.

He was searched, entered from the east hall, and then entered the Yangde Palace, as soon as he entered and saw the sick Guo Shao, he saw Guo Shao's happy expression, and Luo Yanhuan immediately breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
