Mrs. Rebirth

"Your post said that there is another distinguished guest coming today. I wonder if someone else has arrived?" Cao Zongguan endured for a long time, but he still asked this question.

"It's here, but I just said that I want to play chess with Lord Lu. I'm asking someone to ask, and it's time for lunch."

"No need..." Cao Zongguan held his arm anxiously, and explained: "Since the opponent wants to play chess, we should not bother."

"Why bother, we've already finished playing." A deep voice came in, Cao Zongguan turned his head, and saw that person walking in pompously.

The four eyes met, and a wordless emotion emerged spontaneously, a sense of embarrassment between familiarity and strangeness.

The two of them met at night. Although the bedroom was lit with candles, they spent most of the time in bed. They were familiar with each other's bodies, but they were so unfamiliar with Bai Rili's image.

Zhan Yuanfeng had a smile of interest and admiration on his lips, while Cao Zongguan pursed his lips stiffly, showing a little struggle in his eyes.

In the end, it was Zhan Yuanfeng who spoke first, "Lord Zuo is Mrs. Zhen Guogong, how long are you going to hold your hand? Such a rude behavior will be misunderstood."

Only then did Cao Zongguan realize that he was still holding Zuo Shaoqing's hand, his palm was hot, he immediately let go of his hand, and replied stiffly: "The one who cleans himself is clear, I believe that Lord Lu will not be suspicious."

Several people looked at Lu Zheng at the same time, only to find that his complexion was not as good as expected, and a pair of eagle eyes slid from Zuo Shaoqing's hand, "Although the circumstances are excusable, this kind of thing should not happen in the future good."

"Haha..." Zhan Yuanfeng laughed out loud, and seemed very happy to see Cao Zongguan deflated.

Cao Zongguan's originally calm expression was embarrassed by his laughter, he gave him a hard look, and then apologized to Zuo Shaoqing.

Zuo Shaoqing stomped on Lu Zheng secretly, feeling that this man was really petty.

Zhan Yuanfeng had had enough of laughing, so he sat down at the place where Cao Zongguan had sat just now, and asked calmly, "Master Zuo, won't you introduce me?"

Zuo Shaoqing is not stupid, the two of them definitely know each other like this, but he can't figure out how Cao Zongguan would get involved with him today.

And judging from his tone, it seems that he doesn't want to reveal his identity, and he doesn't know whether Cao Zongguan knows his true identity.

"This is my late friend Cao Zongguan, who is a well-known talent in the south of the Yangtze River."

"Oh? How about Mr. Zuo?" Zhan Yuanfeng asked in a frivolous tone, slapping Cao Zongguan on the face with his eyes hooked.

Zuo Shaoqing replied: "Brother Cao is falsely older than me, his knowledge will only be more solid."

"I don't think so. If it's really so solid, why didn't you see him in the palace test before?"

"Ask knowingly!" Cao Zongguan said.

Isn't it?Zuo Shaoqing agreed in her heart, feeling that Zhan Yuanfeng had become more and more weird in the past two days, and her whole body exuded the smell of boudoir resentment.

Zhan Yuanfeng still wanted to find fault, so he heard Lu Zheng say, "Okay, let's eat first." He waved for someone to serve, and sat down next to Zuo Shaoqing, turning a blind eye to someone's shameless behavior.

Since Zhan Yuanfeng's private visit was by micro-service, then everyone did not follow the etiquette of monarchs and ministers, and only regarded it as a gathering of friends.

The table was not big, and it would be full with five dishes and one soup. This kind of menu was a bit crude for banquet guests, but Zhan Yuanfeng and Cao Zongguan didn't mind.

Moreover, although there are few dishes, each one is high-quality, no worse than the imperial meal.

The four of them ate quietly, Lu Zheng picked up a dish for Zuo Shaoqing from time to time, Zhan Yuanfeng would grab a dish from Cao Zongguan from time to time, and Zuo Shaoqing's curiosity arose after eating a meal.

There are tricks!Zuo Shaoqing lowered her head halfway, while picking rice into her mouth, while paying attention to the expressions and movements of the two.

Needless to say, he really saw the signs of it. Every time Zhan Yuanfeng grabbed a dish, he winked at Cao Zongguan in a demonstrative way, but Cao Zongguan didn't pay attention at all, and just put it into his mouth one by one. deliver.

The ecstasy between the two of them made Zuo Shaoqing feel that he and Lu Zheng were superfluous. As soon as this thought came out, he was so scared that he even dropped his chopsticks.

Because Zhan Yuanfeng didn't want his servants to disturb them, there wasn't even a chopstick picker around them. Zuo Shaoqing bent down and prepared to do it himself.

After bending down, he realized that the scenery under the table was also wonderful. One leg of Zhan Yuanfeng was directly on Cao Zongguan's, and he was still dawdling vaguely.

Zuo Shaoqing blinked, curled his lips again, then sat up calmly, called the servants to change the chopsticks calmly, and finished the meal calmly.

After the meal, he began to seriously think about this matter. Although he didn't know when the two hooked up, but according to the rumors outside and the performance of the two of them recently, it was definitely not a matter of mutual affection.

Looking at Lu Zheng's expressionless face, he probably knew the news a long time ago.

"Ahem... If you have something to do, why don't you go and get busy first, I'm very familiar with the Zhen Guogong's mansion, so I won't get lost." Zhan Yuanfeng said to Lu Zheng and his wife with a smile.

Zuo Shaoqing opened his mouth, once again lamenting this master's brazenness, his feelings were taken advantage of unknowingly.

He said seriously: "You are joking, we are the hosts, and you are the guests, how can there be any reason to let the guests not greet?"

Zhan Yuanfeng's smile didn't change, and he said tolerantly: "As a guest, it would be bad if you cause trouble to the master. The two of you have just returned to Beijing, so you should be very busy."

Zuo Shaoqing couldn't refute this, he couldn't say that he was free, could he?

Coincidentally, Luo Xiaoliu ran over in a hurry, bowed indiscriminately and then shouted, "Master, it's not good..."

"Your third master, I am fine!"

"No... Just now, when the servant left the mansion, I heard someone outside saying that last night, the Zuo Mansion was flooded, and I heard that more than half of the house was burnt down."

Zuo Shaoqing raised his eyebrows, and asked in surprise: "Did you run into the water? Is that person okay?"

Luo Xiaoliu shook his head, "I heard that the servants who were watching the night at that time discovered the water and immediately woke up everyone by beating gongs and drums, but the fire was too big and could not be extinguished for a while, so most of the house burned down."

"Oh, as long as people are fine." Zuo Shaoqing replied very flatly, but in fact he was very happy: that house was not pleasing to the eye.

Luo Xiaoliu also slowly came back to his senses, and suddenly thought, why no one from the Zuo Manor came to report such a big matter?If I hadn't gone out by myself, I'm afraid I wouldn't have heard the news.

Could it be... He turned his probing eyes around Zuo Shaoqing, and he almost asked if the third master did it.

Zuo Shaoqing adhered to the principle of "family ugliness should not be publicized", turned around and said with a smile: "It seems that I really can't accompany you two, you two, please do what you want, just ask the servants if you need anything."

Just as Zhan Yuanfeng was about to speak, Cao Zongguan stepped forward and said: "Since Shao Qing is busy with things, let's meet again some other day, we still have some things to do as a brother."

Zhan Yuanfeng's face darkened, and when he turned his head to see Cao Zongguan's ears were bleeding red, and he was about to run away, his heart softened for some reason.

"In that case, then Zhen... let me go too, how about together?" Zhan Yuanfeng asked with a smile, after finally going out of the palace, how could he let someone run away like this?

Cao Zongguan walked ahead without saying a word, his heart was very confused, and he didn't mind whether Zhan Yuanfeng followed or not, but he just didn't want to face the insider for the time being.

The matter between him and Zhan Yuanfeng has been going on in secret all along. It's not that he hasn't thought about what to do if this matter is leaked in the future, it's just that he hasn't prepared for it yet.

The relationship between them was just a deal, and they didn't want to do things in the same way as Lu Zheng did. He didn't even have the courage to raise his head and admit it.

"Stop!" Zhan Yuanfeng shouted, reaching out to grab Cao Zongguan's wrist.

Cao Zongguan shook it, but failed to shake it off, and asked with some lack of confidence: "What's the matter?"

Zhan Yuanfeng didn't answer, he pulled him into the waiting sedan chair and ordered: "Go to his house."

"What?" Cao Zongguan was shocked.

Zhan Yuanfeng stared at him with a half-smile, and leaned into his ear and blew, "Don't you want others to see you together? Then go to your house!"

"Your Majesty, do you dare to let others know?" Cao Zongguan asked back.

"I didn't dare before, but..." Zhan Yuanfeng stopped talking and didn't say the following words.

Cao Zongguan was very upset, and said helplessly: "Even if this matter gets out, your majesty is just a romantic story." But he has no place to stand at all.

Zhan Yuanfeng knew that she was telling the truth, no matter what the relationship between them was, in the eyes of outsiders, Cao Zongguan would only be a sycophant, even if they only had a simple agreement that couldn't be simpler.

Back then, Zuo Shaoqing would have had a hard time if Lu Zheng hadn't tried his best to refute the rumors, and had asked for the imperial decree to marry him in front of all civil and military officials, creating a story of deep love and affection.
