After being mistaken for a fellow by Long Aotian

Xie Zhengqing was half moved. After seeing Zhou Xun's face, he realized that he had said too much.

Anyway, Zhou Xun, Zhou Cai, and Zhou Xiaodi are brothers whose blood is thicker than water. If Zhou Xun intends to plead with him for his younger brother, what should we do?

Unexpectedly, Zhou Xun just nodded and said, "It's very pitiful."

Xie Zhengqing also said: "So, it's not that I don't want to help the Zhou family. Brother Zhou will do such a thing, and he should pay the price. Now that the road merchant is lucky enough to survive, Brother Zhou can be spared the crime of death, but he can't escape the crime of living. This If you don’t punish him this time, if he acts boldly and does worse things next time, what will happen to your Zhou family?”

Xie Zhengqing painstakingly prepared a lot of words to persuade Zhou Xun, but Zhou Xun just smiled and said, "Master Xie, you are thinking too much. When it comes to pleading for the Zhou family... I am probably the last one in this world, Someone who will intercede for them."

Xie Zhengqing:! !

Zhou Xun said this coldly, but he was very moved.

Zhou Xun is indeed as he imagined, a man who knows the general idea, is sensible, and has strict requirements on his family!

A gentleman, indeed a gentleman!

He seemed to see the light of righteousness shining on the two of them.Xie Zhengqing then said: "If you think so, I will be more at ease."

Zhou Xun: ...?

Why did he feel that Xie Zhengqing's expression was inexplicably moved.

After Xie Zhengqing had finished touching himself, he and Zhou Xun walked out of the garden again.Just halfway there, a person ran in front of the two of them.

The man waved his fan, as if he was looking for Xie Zhengqing.After seeing his good friend, he closed his fan and smiled at him from a distance: "Brother Xie, last night's Spring Festival...how was it?"

When Xie Zhengqing saw him, his stomach hurt, and he wanted to run into the place of reincarnation of the five grains and reincarnate again.He said with a bitter face: "Stop talking, last night I, let alone Chun Xiao, I almost..."

"Yo," the man looked at Xie Zhengqing. Xie Zhengqing was dressed neatly. Except for a little mess around the waist, everything else was neatly dressed. It didn't look like she did anything last night. "Can't such a beauty make you fall in love? Thanks Brother is really calm. Or... this Huakui has gained a false reputation and has no means at all?"

"Miss Qingruo is a woman with a hard life, don't use such words to describe her." Xie Zhengqing frowned, "Besides, I have more important things..."

Friend: "What's more important?"

Xie Zhengqing: "The reincarnation of the five grains."

friend: ...

"Last time when you entered the palace, you also ran to the latrine. This time you also ran to the latrine when you saw the oiran. I heard that you could stay on horseback for two days and two nights when you were fighting outside the Great Wall. Did you pull the ○ together if you couldn’t pull it?” the friend said heartbrokenly.

Xie Zhengqing blushed: "Brother Wei, don't be so vulgar!"

Zhou Xun came from behind.Just now there was a flower shadow between him and the two, so the friend couldn't see him.This friend surnamed Wei was taken aback when he saw Zhou Xun: "This is..."

"Who is this……"

Xie Zhengqing was a little embarrassed.He knew that his good friend was Zhou Cai's best friend, and he had admired Zhou Cai for a long time before. Every time he mentioned Zhou Cai's younger brother, he would fight for Zhou Cai for a long time.If he said Zhou Xun's real name in front of the other party, it would be really...

But before he could speak, his friend sneered.He slapped the fan on his palm and said, "It's you."

Seeing him, Zhou Xun just raised his eyelids and didn't speak.

"Why, you feel guilty when you see me? You don't even dare to say anything?" Wei Yuanzhou laughed angrily, "I know you are guilty. You have done so many things. If I were you, I would have hid at home and refused go out!"

Zhou Xun originally wanted to walk away, but he stretched out his hand to stop him, without raising his eyelids, he said, "Dear man, you are overthinking."

Wei Yuanzhou: ...

Zhou Xun: "I just don't remember who you are."

Wei Yuanzhou: ...

"You can't remember who I am? But I remember who you are. Why, from the fifth lord to the emperor, you snatched A Cai's things all the way to the top, isn't that enough? I heard that the emperor loves you very much now, but you came here early in the morning Brothel, what's the matter, did you go out behind the emperor's back to steal? Does the emperor know you're here?"

Zhou Xun: ...Not only did he know, but he carried me on his back.

"Wei Yuanzhou!" Xie Zhengqing couldn't bear it anymore, and stopped his friend, "Your words... these words are too ugly! You look like a countryman!"

Wei Yuanzhou said: "It also depends on him not doing ugly things first."

Xie Zhengqing said: "You don't know Zhou Xun well, but you talk like this. If the report goes wrong in the future, you will be responsible, do you know that?"

Wei Yuanzhou didn't expect that Xie Zhengqing would defend Zhou Xun, and he felt bad all over: "You actually yelled at me for him?"

... The two were arguing lively, and Zhou Xun stood by to watch the excitement.Looking at Wei Yuanzhou's excited face, he suddenly remembered who that person was.

Oh, a friend of Zhou Cai.

He remembered that when he was still in the palace in late autumn last year, he saw him and Zhou Cai by the lake.When this man saw him, he quarreled with him because of Zhou Cai, saying that he was immoral, while Zhou Cai stood beside him, weeping, helping the two of them make peace on the surface and add fuel to the internal fire. .

From afar, he heard that the fifth prince and his people seemed to be coming here, and there was a big noise coming from the other side of the road.He saw that Zhou Cai who was standing next to him seemed to have his feet tilted—very deliberately, as if he was about to fall into the water.

Zhou Xun: ...

How old are you, and you still play such an uncreative set.

Ever since Zhou Cai pushed Zhou Xun into the lake when he was six years old, he seems to have discovered the beauty of the lake—when there is no one else, he pushes the person he hates into the lake, and when others are coming, he pretends to fall into the lake, and framed that others pushed him into the lake.

Zhou Xun looked at the direction where he fell and was still a few inches away from falling into the lake.In short, he also wanted to take the blame. He just kindly threw Zhou Cai into the lake with his palm.

——It’s directly smashing, not pushing.

At that time, Zhou Cai's expression was simply wonderful. He never expected that his brother, who had swallowed his anger, would turn into a neurotic who was fearless. He didn't need him to flop, and he himself would cooperate with him in the performance.

The only fly in the ointment was that he didn't cooperate very well, and he didn't have a tacit understanding, so he threw Zhou Cai headfirst into the lake.

Zhou Cai fell into the late autumn water with a "gudong", and it was too late for the late prince to see the pitiful expression on his pale face when he was pushed into the lake with tears in his eyes.Even if the prince came, he could only see his pale face like a water ghost, and his hair like seaweed—with luck, there might be a few fish inside.

Then Zhou Xun saw Zhou Cai's friend next to him staring at him dumbfounded - he probably didn't expect that the posture of someone pushing someone into the water was so violent and unaesthetic.

So Zhou Xun also gave him a cool look, and said to him, "You want to come too?"

As he said that, he didn't stop doing anything, and directly threw him—that is, Wei Yuanzhou into the water.

So much so that what the Fifth Prince saw was such a stunned scene: In the entire emerald green autumn pond, Wei Yuanzhou and Zhou Cai were struggling to soak in the water—trying to pull their heads up from below.And when he looked towards the shore, what he saw was Zhou Xun jumping into the lake.

He, he, he actually jumped in!

Zhou Xun danced decisively, gracefully and professionally, and fell into the side of the other two.This scene went beyond the thought boundary of the fifth prince at that time, he didn't understand why the three of them were all soaked in the water because he just went out for a while.

Then when he questioned Zhou Xun, Zhou Xun looked at him coolly in the water and said:

"We were playing with water."

... No wonder this Wei Yuanzhou felt as if he had eaten a firecracker when he saw him.

Wei Yuanzhou and Xie Zhengqing were still arguing, but Zhou Xun said something next to Wei Yuanzhou, yawned and left.

What he said was.

"Did you get bitten by a fish in the pond?"

When Zhou Xun returned to the lobby, the emperor had already finished harvesting the brothel.He sat on the chair and looked at the great rivers and mountains of Zhaoying Pavilion, as if he saw that his entertainment empire was about to unfold here in large swathes of splendor.

"We are just one store now, and soon, after knocking out other stores, one store will become two stores, and two stores will become three stores... And finally, the entire Flower Street, the entire Yanyunfang, will become our territory."

As soon as Zhou Xun entered the lobby, he heard the emperor's passionate declaration.

Zhou Xun: ...

He always felt that the emperor seemed to be trying to sell something.

But when he looked around, all the girls and shopkeepers were listening with great interest.The emperor also said: "When the whole Yanyunfang is taken down by us, we will change the name of Yanyunfang to..."

Shopkeeper: "Why did you change the name?"

Girls: "Why did you change your name?"

The emperor cleared his throat and said, "Rename it—Hollywood."

"Hollywood, beautiful, people often come, Hollywood." The emperor said, "From now on, I will be the tyrant of Hollywood!"

Zhou Xun: ……………

He saw a subtle and strange and cold smile on the emperor's face again.

Seeing him coming, the emperor bid farewell to the brothel from which "Hollywood" was about to make a fortune, and took Zhou Xun into the carriage.Sitting in the carriage, Zhou Xun listened to the emperor say, "I have not forgotten what I promised you."

Zhou Xun:?

The emperor: "I sent someone to Zhou's house to move your mother's things, and your things, nothing less. Let's go shopping in the capital during the day, and when we go back at night, all your things will be taken away." In the palace."

Zhou Xun: ...

The emperor: "Oh, I'm afraid that you can't put your things in the Hall of Mental Cultivation alone, so I moved your things to the Changle Palace first. Changle Palace is the closest to the Palace of Mental Cultivation, just one street away. Where would you like to live at night? Just live wherever you like, Piandian Changle Palace, you can sleep as you please."

Zhou Xun: ...

Emperor: "Changle Palace faces south, has a garden, a large balcony where you can bask in the sun, a study room, a bar of your own, a bedroom, and a dance hall where you can dance. The palace servants came to take care of the cleaning."

Zhou Xun smiled and said: "I don't have anything in the Zhou family. I only lived in my hometown in Jiangzhou. The Zhou family in the capital... I only lived in a small courtyard, and I didn't live there for a few days. There are only some broken bricks and tiles in there now."

Emperor: "Oh, that's good. In other words, there is nothing you want in your yard, right?"

Zhou Xun shook his head.

The emperor said again: "I really won't regret it, it doesn't matter if it's gone?"

Zhou Xun said: "It doesn't matter."

Emperor: "Oh, that's good."

As he spoke, he beckoned the guard outside the car door to come in.When the guard poked his head in, he heard the emperor say: "You tell those people who are going to the Zhou mansion to pay attention. Remember to take back everything belonging to Mr. Zhou and his mother, and nothing is missing."

The guard nodded, and the emperor continued: "As for what can't be taken away, the house that Mr. Zhou lived in should be bulldozed."

Guard:? ? ?

The emperor said: "Remember, no construction during the day, all construction at night. All lamp oil money will be reimbursed, double wages, and subsidies will be added. After the work is done, you will have a small two-week holiday, and travel expenses will be reimbursed."

Guard: ...Damn, what's the matter with this feeling of envy, I really want to demolish it!

Emperor: "The slower the demolition, the better, and the louder the movement, the better, understand?"

The guard nodded again and again, and asked someone to do it.The emperor pulled down the curtain and said proudly to Zhou Xun, "Look, I'll vent my anger on you, and they won't even be able to sleep at night!"

Zhou Xun: ... Your Majesty, you seem a little naive.

Thinking of this in his heart, he was dumbfounded and very happy.The emperor thought for a while and said, "By the way, how many brothers and sisters are there in your family?"

Zhou Xun calculated and said, "Counting the sons and daughters of the concubine, there should be eight."

He suddenly realized that, apart from him, there was not a single bastard who was not born of Mrs. Zhou in the entire Zhou family.

He suddenly felt a chill down his back.

"It's all good." The emperor said happily, and opened the door curtain again, "You let the guard who reported the news come back."

The guard came back again, and the emperor continued: "You take the public facilities of the Zhou family, what garden, kitchen, hall, living room, study..."

The guards wrote down one by one, and the emperor said again: "Remove one-eighth of each."

Guard:? ?

Emperor: "Just do it, these are the property that brother Xun deserves."

Guard: ...Your Majesty, you are a little creative and a little rebellious.

The guard left again, Zhou Xun grabbed the emperor's sleeve, and asked him speechlessly: "Your Majesty, is this a bit too exaggerated?"

The emperor said: "It's not exaggerating enough. I'm just helping you out. You should praise me."

Zhou Xun: ...

The emperor: "Besides, I'm a tyrant, what happened to the construction?"

Zhou Xun: ...This civil engineering is a bit small.
