Chapter 335: Angrily reprimanding Li Yi
Twenty catties of ginseng, ten leopard skins, fifty otter skins, and two tiger skins......
Joseon King Li Long gave Zhou Zhong a lot of gifts are also very miscellaneous, are the specialties of North Korea, and in the Ming Dynasty is also very valuable, especially ginseng and tiger skin, of which the ginseng is all in excellent condition, at first glance is the old ginseng produced in Changbai Mountain, the kind that can make people nosebleed when you eat a piece, the tiger skin is also a tall and majestic Siberian tiger, if you put such a tiger skin in the living room, it is really a very face-saving thing.
However, although these gifts are precious, Zhou Zhong is not in his eyes, after all, he is doing maritime business, every day there are countless overseas treasures transported to Shuangyu Port, North Korea's goods are also very much, so they are not lacking in these things in front of them, but what interests him is the girl who has been taking care of Li Yi, Li Yi's limbs were cut off, and he was made into an urn by the brutal Li Long before, and now the wound is purulent and swollen, and the whole person is also a high fever, and now he is unconscious, and the girl has been wiping Li Yi's forehead with a wet towel, hoping to use this method to help him cool down.
"The owner, this little woman's name is Li Rulan, she is the king of North Korea Li Long, and the youngest sister of this Li Yi, titled Jing Shu Weng, only fifteen years old this year, I heard that she has been raised in Li Yi's house, and this time she was also implicated by Li Yi, and was cut off and demoted to a concubine, and this time it was given to you by Li Long as a gift."
Liu Tao said that when he talked about the most rear, he was also envious, the Ming royal family has always favored North Korean beauties, and even one of the tributes in North Korea is beauty, with the royal family as an example, making North Korean beauties have always been very sought-after in Daming. Now the king Li Long wants to tie up with his own proprietor. Even sent out his own sister. Although the title is the lord of Weng, in the eyes of ordinary people, it is no different from a real princess.
Zhou Zhong was also very curious, and looked the girl in front of him up and down, only to see that the other party was not wearing the clothes of a North Korean noblewoman, but a coarse linen dress, and his face was not decorated in any way. When Zhou Zhong looked her up and down, although the other party tried his best to make a gesture of taking care of his brother Li Yi. But the expression on her face was a little flustered, and even her hands trembled a little, and it could be seen that she was very afraid of her current situation, but the education she received since childhood made her try her best to maintain a calm posture.
Seeing the nervous appearance of this quiet lady, Zhou Zhong chuckled lightly and did not speak, and then turned his head to look at Li Yi who was lying on the stretcher, only to see that the lord of Jincheng had no hands and feet, lying on the stretcher like a thick wooden stick, and the wounds on his shoulders and legs exuded an unpleasant smell. Thinking of the scene when Liu Tao said that Li Yi's wound was full of maggots, Zhou Chong felt a chill. At the same time, he involuntarily took two steps back.
"Liu Tao, can this Li Yi still live?" Zhou Zhong ignored the beautiful Jing Shu Weng Lord, and instead opened his mouth to ask about Li Yi's situation. Hearing his question, Lord Jing Shuweng also stopped his movements and stretched out his ears to hear about his brother's situation.
"Qiqi Dongjia, this Li Yi is not saved, when we rescued him from the urn, he was dirty, and the wound was rotten, and at the same time swollen Lao Gao, although I found a doctor to treat him along the way, but his injury was too serious, and the previous wound was not properly treated, it was very rare for him to come to Shuangyu Port alive." Liu Tao bowed and replied.
Zhou Chong didn't react much when he heard that Li Yi was about to die, he didn't plan to let Li Yi live, but after seeing Li Yi being made into an urn, he felt that the punishment he had received was heavy enough, so he didn't care whether Li Yi lived or died.
However, although Zhou Zhong didn't care, when the Jing Shuweng Lord heard that her brother's life would not last long, she immediately burst into tears, and her whole body trembled slightly, but in order to maintain the dignity of her Korean royal family, she still bit her lower lip tightly and forcibly did not cry.
Zhou Chong waved his hand and asked Liu Tao to take people to send the gifts to the warehouse, only he and Li Yi and Li Rulan were left in the living room, Zhou Chong glanced at Li Rulan who was holding back tears, smiled faintly and did not speak, but stepped forward and kicked Li Yi on the stretcher with his foot and said: "Don't pretend, I know that you are awake now!" ”
"Don't touch my brother!" Zhou Zhong just kicked it, and that Li Rulan immediately pounced on Li Yi, staring at Zhou Chong with hatred in her eyes, her voice was crisp and beautiful, and her appearance was extremely beautiful, she was indeed a rare North Korean beauty. As for Li Rulan's ability to speak standard official dialect, it is more reasonable, North Korea uses the Ming script as the official language, and if you are a nobleman, if you can't speak Chinese, you can't mix in the aristocratic circle.
"Hehe, the temper is quite big, but now this is Daming, not a North Korea where you, the lord of the man, can play prestige." Zhou Chong said with a smile, although his tone was soft, but it was full of threat, this Jing Shu Weng was a gift from Li Long, in Zhou Chong's opinion, it was a subordinate, and he naturally would not let a subordinate be arrogant in front of him.
Li Rulan was very smart, and immediately heard Zhou Zhong's threat, but she said with tears in her eyes: "I am no longer the Jingshu lord of North Korea, just a degraded concubine woman, and even in North Korea, my brother and I are also living in fear, and if we are not careful, we will be punished by Brother Wang. ”
"No disaster, you are really naïve, you turn your head and ask this brother next to you if he participated in this coup d'état, does he want to pull Li Long off the throne and replace him himself?" Zhou Zhong rebuked unceremoniously, although the history of later generations said that Li Yi was forced by the ministers to take over Li Long's throne, but through Kim Wenxian's investigation in North Korea, it was found that Li Yi was not an honest person, but secretly supported Liu Shunting and those people to launch a coup d'état.
"If you lie, my brother won't ......"
Before Li Rulan's words were finished, she was interrupted by a weak voice behind her: "Jingshu, don't argue, he is right, I really want to replace him!" ”
"Hehe, you're finally willing to open your eyes!" Zhou Zhong smiled and pushed away Lord Jing Shuweng, looking up and down at the young man lying on the stretcher. Li Yi is twenty-three or four years old this year, and he was supposed to be in the prime of his life, but unfortunately now his limbs are broken, his face is extremely white, and his eyes are full of bloodshots, and he looks more like a ghost than a human.
The Jing Shu Weng Lord, who was pushed away, glared at Zhou Chong again, and then ran to her brother and carefully helped him up, although she had tried not to touch the wounds on Li Yi's body, but it still made Li Yi moan a few times in pain, which made Jing Shuweng's tears flow again.
Waited until Li Yi stood up with difficulty under the support of Lord Jing Shuweng, and then looked at Zhou Zhong seriously, and then said: "I have long heard that there is a young governor in the Ming Dynasty, who is not only talented, but also deeply trusted by His Majesty the Emperor. ”
"Hmph, don't talk about those useless nonsense, you were made into an urn by Li Long, you must have already known the reason why I transported you all the way to Daming, right?" Zhou Chong snorted coldly and said, if he hadn't seen Li Yi so miserable now, I'm afraid he would have slaughtered the other party with his own hands.
Hearing Zhou Chong's words, Li Yi sighed and said: "Lord Governor's guess is right, I do already know the reason why Lord Lu Dao escorted me to Daming, it's funny to say, I never thought that the failure of the coup d'état was actually because of a small mistake I made at the beginning, just because I sold a few people, and I ended up like this." ”
"Minor mistakes?" Zhou Zhong stepped forward in a few steps, wanting to kick it to vent his hatred, but when he saw the other party's miserable appearance, he still couldn't do it, just pointed at him and said hatefully, "Do you know how many wives have been separated because of your so-called 'small mistake'?" Even if I later killed all the chambers of commerce involved in human trafficking, but in the end, I still couldn't find the trafficked people, if it weren't for your life now, I would have slaughtered you with a knife! ”
"Ha Lu Ha ~ I hope that the Governor can kill me with a knife now, anyway, I won't live for a few days, and do you know Lu Dao, it is because you reported to Li Long, so that our coup failed, with Li Long's brutal temperament, he has raised a butcher's knife in North Korea, and countless loyal and righteous people were killed by him, not to mention anything else, there are three hundred and thirteen people in my house, and only me and Jing Shu are left in the last place, my mother, wife, and children are all killed by Li Long. Aren't these lives as good as those of the untouchables who have been trafficked? ”
Li Yi said that after the most deaf, his eyes were full of crazy looks, and his facial features were also a little distorted, when he learned from Li Long that his failure was all because of this Zhou Chong, he wanted to cut Zhou Chong with a thousand knives, but unfortunately now that he has become this ghost, he can only scold a few words to vent the anger in his heart.
"Untouchables?" Zhou Zhong pointed at Li Yi's nose and shouted, "Who do you think you are, in my eyes, even if you Koreans die, this official will not frown at all, but if one of our Ming people dies, I will make our Koreans pay a hundredfold and a thousand times the price!" ”
"You...... You madman, you are even crazier than Li Long! Li Yi's lips trembled when he was frightened by Zhou Chong's angry roar, and his face became even paler, he always felt that Zhou Chong was a scholar, and he would definitely be a little polite and shameful, but he was wrong, Zhou Chong was more ruthless than he imagined, and even he was already sure that the reason why Zhou Chong told Li Long was not just to take revenge on himself, but to make North Korea even more chaotic.
