Jincheng flower hour

Zhou Jing's residence was a half-burned mansion, and the original owner had fled after entering the city.There are only a few rooms in the mansion intact, where Zhou Jing, his book boy, and two guards live.

Zhuang Yang came to visit, and Shu Tong led Zhuang Yang into the house and brought him to Zhou Jing's room.

Zhou Jing's room was empty, with only one couch and one table, and the property rewarded by the King of Han in the past few days was piled up in the corner. The small property was packed in a box, and on top of the box were bundles of cloth.

This is very similar to Zhou Jing's style. He lives a simple life and doesn't like to buy things. If it were someone else, he would buy a good house early, store his belongings well, and buy many beautiful maids and singers to serve him.

"Ayan, you are here."

Zhou Jing raised his head from the table and raised his hands to show that he was sitting.He noticed that Zhuang Yang was wearing an official uniform, and he guessed that he was already an official.

Zhuang Yang sat on the side, whispering: "Sir, I heard something..." The following words were barely audible.

Zhou Jing nodded, sent the book boy to leave, and closed the door.

"Ayan, where did you hear that?"

Zhou Jing's expression did not change, he was still leisurely.

"Mr. Huo's side."

Zhuang Yang didn't hide anything, besides, he came this time to inform Zhou Jing.

"In this case, someone must have informed him."

Zhou Jing's words were still flat.

"Ayang, you don't know about this matter, and don't come to me again."

Zhou Jing didn't want to implicate Zhuang Yang, he thought he could keep it a secret for a while, it seems that Huo Yuqi had already found out the news about his position as Sheriff.

"What are your future plans, sir?"

Taking in an enemy general is a serious crime, and Zhou Jing, as an aide of the King of Han, cannot escape the responsibility.

"One day, I will go and plead guilty to the King of Han."

Zhou Jing had been prepared for a long time, and his heart was very calm.

Zhuang Yang was sad in his heart, but there was nothing he could do. His worries finally came true.What he can predict, how can the husband not predict it, but the husband must want to save Wei Jia, regardless of the price he pays.

"Ayang, but you are working in the county government?"

Zhou Jing didn't want his disciples to be so sad, looked at Zhuang Yang's official uniform, and asked with a smile.

"Under the tent of Young Master Hong."

Zhuang Yang said softly, he didn't think this was the right thing to do.

"That's good, Ayang, Linqiong can win without a fight, you follow the young master, you need to help him a lot."

These days, although Zhou Jing is concerned about Wei Jia, he is also paying attention to the war. He joined the Han camp in order to bring peace to the world.

"gentlemen."

Zhuang Yang was sentimental and his voice was choked up. He understood the meaning of Zhou Jing's words. Once Zhou Jing was imprisoned, his ideas could no longer reach the ears of the King of Han, so he entrusted them to him.

"Ayan, let's go."

Zhou Jing stood up and opened the door, signaling Zhuang Yang to leave.

Zhuang Yang calmed down, walked out the door, and bowed to the ground to say goodbye. Although he was reluctant to part, he still left as if nothing had happened.

Sending Zhuang Yang away, Zhou Jing knew that Wei Jia could no longer stay in Zhou's residence, and needed to move somewhere, so he had to find a way to send Wei Jia out of the city.

Just two days after Zhuang Yang notified Zhou Jing, Wei Jia's reward was posted in Jinguan City. Zhuang Yang didn't go to see Zhou Jing again, so let it be nothing. This is the best protection for Zhou Jing.

Since Zhuang Yang became Liu Hong's subordinate, he would go to the county mansion every day, go early in the morning and return home in the evening.

He assisted Huo Yuqi in handling the affairs of Jinguancheng, and also showed his ability in politics.

These days, Zhuang Yang and Liu Hong can see each other every day, but Liu Hong often finds excuses to invite Zhuang Yang to the courtyard.Liu Hong would always prepare an extra serving of Zhuang Yang's food and eat with Zhuang Yang.Zhuang Yang's leg injury was also treated by Liu Hong's famous doctor who treats abdominal injuries, and the leg injury healed quickly.

Every time Liu Hong saw Zhuang Yang sitting beside him and writing down things for him, he was always very happy.He likes to have Zhuang Yang by his side, even if he looks at his figure in a red robe from afar, his heart is filled with warmth.

Liu Hong once wanted to distribute the six beauties presented by the King of Han to his subordinates, but Zhuang Yang stopped him.No matter how difficult it is for Zhuang Yang to accept emotionally, he will only agree with things that are beneficial to Liu Hong.

Even though they were both in the county mansion, they rarely spent nights together, and Zhuang Yang didn't want to be discussed.With this caution, even if they get along day and night, the officials of the county government only know that Zhuang Yang is Liu Hong's old friend, and that the two are on good terms, but they don't know that there is a private relationship between them.Only Huo Yuqi was aware of it, but old Huo was always shrewd, he just pretended he didn't know, didn't see it.

One day, Zhuang Yang received an arrest document in the government office. He stood up in surprise and rushed forward to find Huo Yuqi.

Huo Yuqi was writing the laws and regulations before the case. He hurriedly put down the wooden tablet and took Zhuang Yang's document. After taking a look at it, he suddenly felt that something was wrong. The document was issued from the palace of Shu Palace. This is an urgent arrest for Wei Jia. paperwork.Huo Yuqi had a keen sense of smell and felt something was wrong.

The King of Han obviously knew that Wei Jia had escaped from Jinguan City, no matter who told him, and then pursued, Zhou Jing was in danger.

"Zhuang Sheng, there is no other way but to arrest Zimu."

Huo Yuqi knew best that it was better to lock Zhou Jing in the prison of the county mansion and let them take care of him than to fall into the hands of others.

Afterwards, Huo Yuqi sent people to Zhou Jing's residence, and at this time Zhou Jing's house was besieged by soldiers.Huo Yuqi personally stepped forward, took Zhou Jing away, and brought him back to the county mansion for interrogation.

To avoid relatives, as a disciple, Zhuang Yang was not allowed to participate in the interrogation.

When he saw Zhou Jing again, Zhou Jing was already in prison.

It was the brightest and brightest cell in the county jail, and it was kept very clean.Zhou Jing sat inside calmly, his clothes were neat, and he didn't have any scars on his body.This is Huo Yuqi's quick action, if he snatches Zhou Jing, if he falls into the hands of others, he may be sentenced to death.

When Zhuang Yang came, Huo Yuqi had just left, and he sent Zhou Jing several volumes of books, as well as pen, ink, silk cloth and hemp paper.

Zhou Jing accepted it, thanked him, and asked Zhuang Yang in a low voice, did Wei Jia escape?

"There is no news of arrest."

Zhuang Yang didn't understand the relationship between his husband and General Wei in the past, but only now did he understand.

Even though he is in prison, the husband is still concerned about the life and death of this person.

However, Zhuang Yang felt grievances in his heart. He was sad and distressed for his husband.

General Wei left, presumably to find his wife and daughter, while the husband was left alone in prison, waiting for his fate.

"Sir, here are two sets of clothes and quilts. Later, someone will bring the wooden table and lamps."

These things all came from Zhuang Yang's family. Zhuang Yang was very fortunate that he was an official, so he could freely enter and leave the county prison to help Zhou Jing.

"Ayang, don't come here again. If something happens, I will ask the jailer to inform my school boy."

Zhou Jing took the items one by one, but he still told Zhuang Yang not to get involved.

"Sir, don't worry."

He and Zhou Jing are masters and apprentices, and it is natural for him to behave like this.

"You don't have to worry about it, Ayang. I happen to be writing a book here as a teacher, so it's quiet."

Zhou Jing looked up at the fallen leaves outside the window, the autumn wind was bleak and autumn was lonely.He was deeply imprisoned, but he was not in danger of his life, but he didn't know that the haggard man with his injured leg had passed through the larch forest on the outskirts of the city and returned to his wife and daughter?

The battle between the Han army and the Shu soldiers in Linqiong was intermittent. The Han king withdrew the generals deployed in Linqiong, and was quite dissatisfied with the speed of the conquest.On this day, Liu Hong was still going to the Palace of Shu to discuss matters, and happened to see several generals who were being trained came out dejectedly.When Liu Hong entered the hall, the King of Han saw Liu Hong and said to him, "Why did you let Wei Jia go?" Listening to his father's tone, he didn't seem very annoyed, Liu Hong lowered his head and admitted his mistake.But he didn't make excuses, and Liu's father was also unhappy. Liu Hong acted calmly, and such a thing shouldn't have happened.

"Why, don't you have anything to say?"

These years, father and son fought together in the South and the North, and they had a deep relationship. Liu's father seldom blamed Liu Hong.

"Father, do you think Mr. Zimu is more important, or Wei Jia?"

Liu Hong did have his own considerations for letting Wei Jia go.

"If there is no Mr. Zimu, I am afraid that we are still outside Jinguan City at this time, and we may not be able to capture the city until the depth of winter."

They all knew that with the power of Zimu's proclamation before the siege, he disintegrated the hearts of the people in Jinguan City from within, so that later there was a defection in the city and the opening of the city gate.

"Mr. Zimu and Wei Jia are life and death friends. If I arrest Wei Jia and behead him, how can Mr. Zimu be willing to serve the Han Kingdom?"

"Did you catch him and behead him?"

Father Liu felt that this child was taciturn when he was sent to Chang'an back then, how could he be so eloquent later on, this is probably due to the wrong teacher he found.

"Let's let this matter go, and there is another matter, please listen to me carefully."

How could Father Liu not know about the friendship between Zhou Jing and Wei Jia? If he chose, he would not be able to kill Wei Jia. Zhou Jing has a high reputation in Jinguan City, and Zhou Jing will still be useful in the future.

"I rewarded your beauties, but you gave all of them to your subordinates?"

This happened yesterday, but Father Liu already knew about it.Father Liu stayed in the Shu Palace all day long, but he had many eyes and ears.

Liu Hong didn't think it was scary, but thought that his father would find out sooner or later, and he couldn't hide it forever, and he didn't intend to keep it hidden.

"I don't like those beauties competing for favor, so I bestow it on the generals."

What Liu Hong said was not a lie, these beauties were not favored by him, and if they were kept by his side, accidents would happen sooner or later.

After being verified, Father Liu was immediately annoyed. His son's conduct is perfect and he has outstanding talents, but he has a bad habit.

"If you do that again, I'll kill him."

Father Liu's tone was gloomy, he didn't make it clear, but both father and son knew who this "he" was.

"Father, that would kill me."

Liu Hong spoke very calmly, he would not let Erlang suffer any harm because of him, even if he tried to die.

"Niezi, do you know what you're talking about!"

Father Liu was so angry that he wanted to smash the wine bottle and patted the wooden case angrily.Looking at his son's unrepentant appearance, Father Liu remembered the scene of his son saving Zhuang Jia Erlang on the battlefield. He had never seen it with his own eyes, but someone had told him about it in detail.He felt that this kid was not joking.

Hearing the word "Niezi", Liu Hong's heart inevitably ached, but his expression did not change. He knelt on the ground and spoke sincerely:

"Father, when the world is at peace, it won't be too late to investigate my son's crimes. At that time, even if I reduce my ministers to common people, I will have nothing to complain about. At that time, I will take my mother back to Linqiong and become a farmer." That's all."

"you……"

Father Liu's raging anger was instantly extinguished without a trace.

He owes the mother and son 16 years of affection and owes them a lot.Let their mother and son live a life of poverty in Linqiong without any concern.Even so, after the child returned to him, he fought the world for him, conquered the north and south, and made great contributions.

It's really nowhere to start.

Leaving the Shu Palace, Liu Hong thought about avoiding disaster temporarily, but it also made people feel uneasy.It would be good if Linqiong was taken down earlier, and his father moved his troops back to Chang'an, so that he would not miss Erlang.

Liu Hong stepped out of the hall, thinking in his heart, and slowed down his steps.Suddenly he heard: "Brother!" Liu Hong turned his head and saw Wuji chasing after him. "Can I go to the county mansion with my brother?" Compared to his strict father, Wuji undoubtedly prefers his brother. "Okay, come here." Liu Hong patted Wuji's shoulder and asked his attendant to prepare a horse for Wuji.

The two brothers were riding horses in the night, one big and one small, and at some point, their appearances were somewhat similar.Liu Hong slowed down and turned his head to wait for his younger brother, who was smiling gently at him.
