Mrs. Rebirth

Chapter 119

Zuo Shaoqing didn't really believe Luo Xiaoliu's words, because he really couldn't imagine Yin Yi causing small sabotage, especially adding salt to Luo Xiaoliu's tea on purpose...it was too childish.

"Did you see it?" Zuo Shaoqing had to doubt.

Luo Xiaoliu blushed, straightened his neck and said, "It's just me and him in this room. Could it be a ghost if he didn't do it?"

Suddenly a gust of cold wind blew by, Luo Xiaoliu shivered, hugged his arms and rubbed them, and said to himself in fear: "Could there really be ghosts?"

Zuo Shaoqing heard some unusual noises, guessed that Yinyi had returned, and saw Luo Xiaoliu's frightened appearance, finally believed his words.

He waved Luo Xiaoliu to back down, and then called out Yin Yi, staring at his calm face and questioning: "You bully my boy?"

Yin Yi stood ten steps away from Zuo Shaoqing, the jumping candlelight cast a shadow on his face, and only heard him answer: "It's boring."

boring?Zuo Shaoqing suddenly had the feeling of being struck by lightning. He found that after an exam, the biggest change was not Luo Xiaoliu or Zuo Shuhui, but this seemingly rigid man in front of him.

He laughed dryly, skipped the topic, and asked the question he was most concerned about, "How is Master Lu these days?"

"Grandpa is going south."

Zuo Shaoqing was not surprised but a little disappointed, and then asked: "Do you know what to do?"

Yin Yi shot his gaze over, as if what Zuo Shaoqing was asking was nonsense, his master had already left Beijing, could he not know what he was going to do?

Hearing Yin Yi talk about the cause of the incident, Zuo Shaoqing found out that several small villages near the sea in Hecheng County were attacked by pirates within half a month. young men and women, and the rest were all killed, and the places they passed were like locusts crossing the border, not even a grain of food was left behind.

When the first village was victimized, the magistrate not only did not report the situation but deliberately concealed it after knowing the situation. Unexpectedly, in just half a month, the pirates would commit crimes one after another, and the methods were even more cruel.

When the news reached the Crane City Prefect, the Crane City Prefect immediately sent people along the seashore to look for the pirates, but they didn't even see anyone.

In fact, everyone knows that most of the pirates’ lairs are on isolated overseas islands, and when they go ashore to rob, they always grab and run. Even if the entire navy of Dayang is dispatched, they may not be able to find the opponent’s lair.

The magistrate of Crane City knew that the matter could not be suppressed, so he had to go to the memorial, and the tens of thousands of words were eloquent, half of which was self-criticism, and half was a request for support.

Now Dayang's navy is basically paralyzed, and the soldiers sent out can't even catch the pirates. The prefect of Crane City is also worried that the pirates will continue to commit crimes.

Once such things happen a few more times, he will be the prefect.

Zuo Shaoqing knew that Wusha, the magistrate, would definitely be lost. As for the magistrate of Hecheng, he might also have to bear the crime of lax governance.

"Did the emperor take pictures of Lord Lu?" Although the matter was very serious, Zuo Shaoqing felt that the suppression of bandits should not be too much trouble for Lu Zheng.

"The emperor asked me to rectify the navy of the whole country." Seeing Zuo Shaoqing's depression, Yin Yi explained kindly: "The reason why I went south this time is to find out the movements of the pirates, and secondly, to understand the situation of the navy. Master's strength, it won't take long to come back."

Zuo Shaoqing didn't believe it, "If the pirates heard the news and didn't dare to go ashore, how would Master Lu find them?"

Yin straightened his back, and said with a slightly disdainful tone: "They are just clowns, how can it be so hard to find? It's not that they are too powerful, but that the soldiers in the south are too weak."

Zuo Shaoqing thinks about it too, there is no comparison between government guards who are used to living a comfortable life and soldiers who have been on the battlefield.

It's just that it is not possible to let these soldiers fighting on land suppress bandits at sea.

He muttered to himself: "Unexpectedly, the emperor trusts Master Lu." Otherwise, he would not have entrusted such an important task to him.

Lu Zheng already has half of Dayang's military power in his hands, and these soldiers are all veterans who have fought bloody battles. Now that Zhan Yuanfeng dares to hand over the navy to him, it can be seen that the relationship between the two is not as rumored by outsiders. nervous.

Yin Yi didn't like to comment on the Ninth Five-Year Master, but he thought to himself: Only a faint king can't use a talent as useful as his master.

To say that Zhan Yuanfeng was jealous of Lu Zheng, but he would never be unreasonably suspicious. He understood the reason why he should not be suspicious of others.

Zuo Shaoqing sighed secretly, Master Lu is really a busy person, and he only had a good rest during the time when he was injured, and since then, he has never stopped.

If he stayed in the capital to work in the future, Master Lu would not be home all day, and he would feel bored just thinking about it.

There was a faint plan in her heart, Zuo Shaoqing was going to wait for Lu Zheng to come back and then make a good deal with him.

After learning about Lu Zheng's movements, Zuo Shaoqing asked about the Zuo family.

The things Luo Xiaoliu knew were just gossip from others, far from the truth and completeness hidden in the corner.

And Zuo Shaoqing finally understood the history of Zuo Shaoyan and Jiang Che's relationship.

"You mean, my elder brother said that if something happens to my elder sister, Master Jiang's wish will also come to nothing?"

"Yes." Yin Yi told the truth, he always felt that the two were plotting something bad.

Because Yin Yi didn't follow Lu Zheng, he didn't know that Jiang Che wanted to replace them with two young men and Lu Zheng. If he knew this, he could easily guess what the two of them were thinking.

Zuo Shaoqing could roughly guess something, but she just thought with a sneer in her heart: Zuo Shaoyan's motives are there, it's not difficult to guess at all, but he can't get any benefits from himself in this life!

His eyes flashed, and he thought to himself, maybe he can make the cooperation between them more reliable and interesting.

"Yinyi, I want all of Jiang Shilang's information!"

Yin paused for a moment, then replied respectfully: "Yes, I will submit it tomorrow."

Zuo Shaoqing knew that the Zhen Guo government must have all kinds of information about the courtiers, and Jiang Che, as the new emperor's confidant, must be their main focus.

He yawned big, got into the quilt and said, "I'm sleepy, go to sleep first."

In Tinglan Garden, Mrs. Xue brought a meal and walked into her daughter's boudoir. Seeing her wrestling with a piece of handkerchief with scissors, she asked amusedly, "How did you cut the good handkerchief?"

"Hmph!" Zuo Shuhui threw down the broken veil, "It was originally embroidered for my father, but now that I think about it, he won't care about it anymore."

"Why are you and your father so angry? It's not that you don't know his character. Over the years, your father's biggest wish is that the Zuo family can re-enter the government. It's normal to be nice to that bastard."

"Mother, then you will let him dominate the Zuo family? When we go out in the future, people will say that our family has no distinction between the descendants and the concubines. Where will my daughter's face be?"

"I've always underestimated that bastard. I didn't expect that his timidity and cowardice in the past were all faked. Looking at his arrogant appearance now, how can he be respectful?"

"No, if this continues, sooner or later there will be no place for us in this family."

Xue scooped up a bowl of soup and handed it to Zuo Shuhui, looked at her red eyes and sighed: "If you can marry into the Duke of Zhen's mansion, you don't need to be afraid of him? Even if he is the number one scholar in high school, he can't catch up with you. "

Speaking of this, Zuo Shuhui's shoulders slumped again, "Mother, the old lady hasn't moved at all, I'm afraid there is no hope."

"What are you in a hurry for? Mother has been paying attention. Although she didn't express anything to our family, she didn't particularly care about any girls."

"Then tell me, what is she waiting for?" Zuo Shuhui's confidence is not as strong as when she first arrived in the capital, especially after experiencing the kidnapping case, she feels that her life has been stained.

Xue frowned and said: "This is also the place where I am confused. It stands to reason that Mr. Lu is not too young. The son of a big family has already married and had children at this age. The old lady should not be in a hurry."

Lu Zheng is going to be twenty in a blink of an eye, and Zuo Shaoyan is also at the same age. He has been married for several years. If Mrs. He could live up to his expectations, the children would be running all over the place by now.

There is no parent who doesn't want their son to get married as soon as possible, especially the fifth generation single heir of the Zhenguo government, it should be urgent.

However, what I learned from Zuo's family after they entered the capital said that the old lady would find a daughter-in-law in person in the early years, but there has been little movement in the past few years, as if she didn't care about whether Grandpa Lu got married or not.

"Mother... my daughter heard some news at her uncle's house." Zuo Shuhui said in a low voice.

"Ok?"

Zuo Shuhui's face was flushed, her eyes were flickering, and she faltered and said: "My daughter also listened to the nonsense of my uncle's cousin, saying...saying...Grandpa Lu is afraid..."

Xue Shi heard half of it, and asked urgently: "What are you afraid of?"
