Mrs. Rebirth

The two were silent all the way, until they saw the wishing tree, Zuo Shaoqing didn't think about what to say, he looked up at the red cloth hanging on the tree and asked: "Does Master Lu have a wish?"

Wish?Lu Zheng frowned and pondered. As long as he could remember, he was either practicing martial arts or studying literature every day. At that time, he would still think that it would be great if he didn't have to learn these things one day, but since he went to the battlefield, he has no time to think about them. Useless, only military strategy remained in his life.

Even though the war was over, he didn't seem to feel much relieved, instead he hated the official strife he was about to face.

Zuo Shaoqing didn't expect him to answer, and said to herself: "I have. When I was young, my wish was to take my mother and leave the Zuo Mansion when I grow up. I don't have to look at my aunt's face anymore, and live an unfettered life. Later, when I became sensible, I realized that this was just a dream, and I hoped that one day I would be named on the gold list, so that those people would not dare to bully our mother and son again.

"Does Lord Lu know what my wish is now?" Zuo Shaoqing turned around, with a cheerful smile flashing between his brows, he blinked, and took a step towards Lu Zheng, thinking: I hope that one day I can have this powerful dream. A man who can firmly tie him to his side, even if he knows that this is just a more stupid idea than a fool's dream.

However, he was very clear that he wanted this man, even if their identities were completely different.

But he didn't want to be a dispensable male favorite by Lu Zheng's side, and he didn't want to be huddled in the one-acre backyard for the rest of his life.

So he restrained, restrained the desire that grows so much every day...

Lu Zheng looked at him without saying a word, and suddenly stretched out his arms to wrap around Zuo Shaoqing's waist, pointed his toes, and led him into the air, and jumped to the highest branch of the wishing tree.

He took a red cloth from a branch and handed it to Zuo Shaoqing, ordering: "Write!"

"..." Zuo Shaoqing was still immersed in shock, looking at the cloth strips fluttering in the wind in front of him without knowing why.

"Write down your wish!" Lu Zheng urged.

Zuo Shaoqing had mixed emotions in his heart. He took the cloth strip, looked up at Lu Zheng's chin, and chuckled for a long time, "How could Lord Lu believe this? Asking for others is better than asking for yourself. There are so many wishes hanging on this tree. But how many have been realized?"

"Just write if you tell me!" Lu Zheng was a little embarrassed. In fact, he regretted it after stepping on the top of the tree with his toes. He didn't understand why he would make such a naive move.

The curvature of the corners of Zuo Shaoqing's lips slowly expanded, and his eyes filled with ink were full of smiles. He put his fingers into his mouth and bit hard, and then wrote four large characters on the cloth strip with blood.

Of course, he would not be so stupid as to write out the dirty thoughts buried in his heart, so all Lu Zheng saw were the words "title on the gold list".

Although he felt that Zuo Shaoqing was a little too persistent, in his impression, scholars were like this, struggling for fame and fame all their lives, and never turned back until they hit the south wall.

The most despised thing in the past happened to Zuo Shaoqing, but he didn't feel disgusted. Lu Zheng once again decided that it was his own evil intentions that caused the trouble!

Zuo Shaoqing hugged Lu Zheng's waist tightly with one hand, and hung the cloth strip on the branch with the other hand, and wrapped it around a few times before letting go.

Lu Zheng jumped down from the tree with the man in his arms. He didn't notice it before, but now he realized that the man in his arms was clinging to his chest. He could wrap his slender waist with one arm, and his hot breath penetrated through the fabric. Sprinkled on his skin, there is an illusion of being scalded.

Zuo Shaoqing put his ear on his heart, listening to the regular pulse, the broad and firm chest brought unprecedented warmth and security, which made him reluctant to let go for a long time.

It wasn't until the regular heartbeat gradually accelerated that Zuo Shaoqing raised his head unexpectedly, and happened to meet Lu Zheng's dark eyes, which were incomprehensibly deep.

He was startled, let go of his hands and took a step back, straightened his long hair that was blown by the wind, and said with wandering eyes, "Thank you so much, Master Lu!"

Lu Zheng gave an "um" inexplicably, then rubbed his warm palms behind the back of his hands, turned and left.

Zuo Shaoqing stepped up to keep up, his eyes stopped on the tall and straight figure, he frowned, compared with his short and thin figure, his mouth suddenly became bitter.

I remember that when the two of them were sticking together just now, he only reached Lu Zheng's chest. Even if he was growing his body, he would be able to grow to Lu Zheng's chin at most in a few years. As for Lu Zheng's hard tendons, he wanted to I dare not even think about it.

Zuo Shaoqing recalled the medical books he had read, and wanted to find out one or two formulas for increasing his height. At the same time, he secretly decided to ask Liu Ma to make bone soup for him every day when he returned home.

Lu Zheng stopped abruptly, and Zuo Shaoqing bumped into him with his head down, "Hmm..."

He held his nose and stared at the broad back like a wall, thinking bitterly: Why are you so tall?

Lu Zheng didn't care about his resentment, and said out loud, "I heard that someone in the Cao Gang is using my seal as a dominance."

Zuo Shaoqing instantly straightened his back, tensed his nerves, and after a moment, he replied solemnly: "The late second uncle is in the water transport business."

"So... you just gave him my father-in-law's seal?" Lu Zheng's tone was so light that no one could hear any emotion.

Zuo Shaoqing thought about it for a while, and felt that it was unlikely that Lu Zheng would be angry because of this: "Master Lu's seal is too precious, and I don't know where to use it when I was born late. Sent him an emergency."

"Oh? Then you didn't take the opportunity to ask for some benefits?"

Zuo Shaoqing felt relieved, knowing that Lu Zheng didn't intend to pursue the responsibility, so she boldly said: "Second Uncle gave [-]% of the water transportation business, Wansheng couldn't refuse..."

"Too little!"

Zuo Shaoqing raised her head in surprise when she heard the words, blinked her eyes, and said with a pure face: "We are all a family, Wansheng doesn't care about these things." It seems that I have to have a good talk with my second uncle when I go back, no one cares about money Many are not?

"You go back and tell him that you are not allowed to cross the Nanhuai River. There is only [-]% profit, and you still want to take everything from the north to the south?"

Zuo Shaoqing rolled his eyes, thought about it for a moment, and asked tentatively, "Is Lord Lu interested in the water transport business?"

As far as he knew, there was an important court official standing behind the Cao Gang. As for who it was, he didn't know who it was. If Lu Zheng wanted to fight for this piece of profit, as long as the opponent was not the current emperor, he would absolutely have to give it up.

This is a great opportunity. If you can get on the boat of Lu Zheng, the backing is solid, and the money will naturally flow in.

And he also thought of something, if his financial resources were enough to overwhelm the Zuo family, maybe... he could let Xue's mother and son go to drink the northwest wind.

This is really a good idea, Zuo Shaoqing was happy in his heart, but it didn't show on his face.

Lu Zheng fought in the frontier for many years, and he didn't take much care of his family's business, nor was he interested in it, but when he saw Zuo Shaoqing's bright eyes, he nodded unexpectedly.

He intends to subdue the Cao Gang, but he is interested in the members of the Cao Gang all over the north and south. With these people, he does not need to send out the secret guards of the Duke's Mansion for many things, which is a very good intelligence line.

He thought: Since we want to subdue the Cao Gang, let's take the water transportation business into our pocket by the way, and maybe we can find a suitable person to manage it.

Thinking of this, he looked at Zuo Shaoqing with three points of consideration.

Zuo Shaoqing didn't know what was going on in his mind, so he opened his eyes and said nonsense, "Wan Sheng has an appointment with my second uncle for a drink tonight, why don't Master Lu come too?"

Lu Zheng came to his senses in an instant, yes, the person who knows how to do business is Zuo Yunyang, who has nothing to do with Zuo Shaoqing, and he actually wanted a scholar to help him manage the business, did he really lose his mind?
