rested in the backyard of Peng Ze's mansion at night, but Kou Peihan and Peng Yunshi slept in the same room, and the two of them simply had endless words.

On the second day, I left early and went straight to the capital.

After traveling for three days, he finally arrived in the capital on the evening of the twentieth day of the first lunar month.

Guozijian is the twenty-second day of the first month, so Zhou Zhi has one day left to listen to the affairs of his father-in-law, Kou Dagang.

In fact, Zhou Zhi was thinking about this all the way. At this time, Zhou Zhixin was a little calm. He is a graduate of literature and history in later generations, and he knows many characters in this period of the Ming Dynasty. Especially for the great eunuch Li Guang, he knows a lot.

According to Zhou Zhi's memory, Li Guang is also about to die. Combined with the records of historical books, in fact, the cause of Li Guang's death is very clear.

Zhou Zhi secretly thought, could it be that he crossed the Ming Dynasty by himself, and Li Guang's death would fall on him?

Well, if this matter is really behind Li Guang's back, then he will simply play with Li Guang and expose Li Guang's accumulated crimes.

Zhou Zhi asked Qi Yanwu to take a carriage to Guozijian first, and settled all the luggage and bookcases. Zhou Zhi and Kou Peihan rented an inn outside Guozijian, more than a mile away from Guozijian.

It was only at this time that Zhou Zhi knew that in fact, Guozijian did not have a clear requirement for prisoners to bring female dependents now, but everyone seemed to have formed a consensus that they would not take female dependents to live in Guozijian. However, there are less than 400 prisoners in the prison, and these prisoners come from all parts of the country, and there must be many people who come here with their female dependents to study.

Most of them stayed at this inn.

Hehe! From this point of view, the innkeeper is still very business-minded. Know how to choose a location to open an inn according to the needs of customers.

Zhou Zhi and Kou Peihan rested in the room for a short time, and Zhou Zhi narrowed his eyes slightly, falling into deep thought.

Who to inquire about the news of the old man, is it Li Guang behind the scenes? Zhou Zhi really made a difficulty. In fact, in the past few days, Zhou Zhi has not been able to find a suitable person.

I know too few people in the capital, but I know the "four young people in the capital", but I obviously can't pee between myself and them. How can they tell themselves the details? Schadenfreude is already cheap.

Just when he was at a loss, he suddenly heard a hearty voice outside the door, "Brother Zhou Zhixian is in the room?" ”

Just listening to this voice, you know that it is Boye Liu Long.

Liu Long and Zhou Zhi have crossed paths several times, and at this time they have long been impressed by Zhou Zhi's talent and popularity, and he seems to regard Zhou Zhi as an idol-like figure.

However, it must be explained that during the government examination, Zhou Zhi was the first and Liu Long was the second. At the time of the Tao test, Zhou Zhi was the first, and Liu Long was still the second. It shows that Liu Long does have real talent and learning, but he met Zhou Zhi, an "outlier", and he couldn't take the primary and secondary school three yuan.

In Guozijian, Zhou Zhi studied hard, and in addition to attending classes every day, he soaked in Yilun Hall to study, and Zhou Zhi made great progress in three months. But Liu Long is not far behind, he is also studying hard day and night, according to the current level of Liu Long's composition, although he can't catch up with Zhou Zhi, but it is not much different from Zhou Zhi.

In fact, the two of them often learn from each other together, and they have become friends who talk about everything.

Zhou Zhi hurriedly stood up and hurriedly opened the door.

Kou Peihan had already squatted in time for Wanfu, and Liu Long returned the salute with a smile. Liu Long had actually seen Kou Peihan a long time ago, it was when he was at the Peach Blossom Poetry Club in Wanxian County, Kou Peihan was a woman dressed as a man at that time, and she looked very handsome.

Now Liu Long saw Kou Peihan's women's clothes, saw Kou Peihan's cloud temples high, ice muscles and snow neck, and was even more beautiful, Liu Long sighed secretly, alas! People are really angry compared to people! Zhou Zhi is so beautiful even if she marries a lady, why can't I meet a big beauty like her in my life!

After all, Liu Long came from a famous family, so he was naturally very polite, so he just glanced at Kou Peihan slightly, and then looked away. Then he said to Zhou Zhi, "Brother Zhou Zhixian, can you go out for a walk with Brother Wei?" ”

He obviously has something, Zhou Zhi said, "It's easy to say!" ”

After that, he glanced at Kou Peihan slightly, said hello, and followed Liu Long out of the room.

Kou Peihan only talked to Zhou Zhi about the Kou family when he was at home, and then he didn't mention a word. She knows Zhou Zhi's character very well, and Zhou Zhi is thinking about her father Kou Dagang all the time.

The last thing that husband and wife should not lose is trust, and Kou Peihan is very trusting and thoughtful. She believes that Zhou Zhi will definitely have a way to rescue her father, although Zhou Zhi is only a very small person now.

Gently closing the door, Kou Peihan's heart thought of his father Kou Dagang again. Daddy should be in the capital now, but he doesn't know where he is. How's Daddy doing now? They won't be caught in jail, right? In that case, Daddy would have suffered.

Zhou Zhi and Liu Long walked out of the inn side by side. Although it is about to enter February, the weather is still very cold, but it is not as cold and biting as the cold wind of the cold winter years ago.

There were no pedestrians on the street, Liu Long suddenly stopped, turned his head to look at Zhou Zhi, and suddenly said, "Brother Zhou Zhixian has made Brother Wei more and more respectful." Needless to say, he is talented, courageous, and has a good character, but he is so calm when he encounters major events, which makes him feel ashamed of himself. ”

Although Liu Long is suspected of filming Zhou Zhi's sycophants, I have to say that what he said is not true.

Zhou Zhi said with a smile, "Brother Liu Long, where did you start with this?" Zhou Zhi is just an ordinary person! ”

"Where to start? Hehe! Brother Zhou Zhixian, don't say dark words in front of Ming people. If you have something to say for your brother, you can just say it. As far as my brother knows, Brother Zhou Zhixian is not the kind of prodigal child, he likes to be close to women. Brother Zhou Zhixian is a person with great ambitions!

But this time my brother and sister came to the capital with you, do you still need to explain the reason for your brother? The corners of Liu Long's mouth raised slightly and said.

Zhou Zhi chuckled in his heart, did he know what happened to the Kou family?

Zhou Zhixuan immediately thought that although the Boye Liu family was slightly defeated after Liu Ji, it was also a famous family. Liu Long's father, Liu Shangke, was an official in the capital. Although it is only a seven-grade supervision of the imperial history, the right to supervise the imperial history is not small, and many people in the court are afraid of them, or they are respectful and far away, or they are evil and far away.

Liu Shang has been an official in the capital for some years, could it be that he heard about the Kou family? If this is the case, Liu Shang is not bad in the capital.

Zhou Zhi immediately told Liu Long in detail about the Kou family.

Liu Long said, "Looking for you today for my brother, in fact, it is specifically for this matter." Brother Zhou Zhixian, my father has already found out clearly, this matter is not as simple as it seems. In fact, Guo Liang, the right governor of the rear army, was forced to arrest your father-in-law to enter Beijing. The person behind this is Li Guang, a popular eunuch in the dynasty. ”
