"Knife in hand, follow me! Grab Shi Qi and kill Li Gou!"
Zhan Hongling shouted, holding the kitchen knife and striding out, with no one following her except the occasional crow.
"You're almost done!" Zhan Zhao couldn't stand it anymore, so he twisted her ears and pulled her back.
"Zhan Xiongfei! You have no heart! That's your sister, the sister you swore to protect!" Zhan Hongling pouted, her head tilted because her ears were being held.
"My sister would never be so unreasonable!"
"You are being unreasonable!"
With tears in her eyes, Zhan Hongling raised her head and stared at him stubbornly, "If you don't give me an explanation, I will ignore you...I will ignore you for three months!"
Zhan Zhao sighed, feeling that coaxing a woman was more tiring than fighting to the death.
"Master Bao has said before that Di Renjie has just been promoted to Minister of Dali Temple and is in short supply of people. If you can help, please help. After all, it is not a good thing for all law enforcement powers to be concentrated in the hands of a few people. Over time, it will breed corruption.
. We are all human beings, and we will all change in the future. No one can guarantee that we will be a good person for the rest of our lives!"
Zhan Hongling shook her head decisively, "Nonsense, I don't believe you will become a bad person!"
Zhan Zhao raised his eyebrows, amused, "Thank you for trusting me, but unfortunately, I have wanted to use lynching more than once."
"But haven't you endured it all?"
"I have endured it, but... I am too tired. Justice has never existed, it is just us who have pulled justice out of nothingness. Now it is not easy to find someone who can help share the burden. I will help if I can!"
Zhan Zhao said it very casually, but both Zhan Hongling and the sisters could see the heaviness in it.
After all, this is not the first time. The bad guys are very cautious and there is not much evidence that can be found after the crime. Sometimes everyone knows who the murderer is, but you just can't find the evidence.
"Then there's no need to betray your sister!"
"That was Shi Qi's own choice. Besides, I think Li Yuanfang may seem a little unruly, but he is loyal and brave, and he is definitely a good man!" Zhan Zhao had a very good impression of Zuo Zhou.
"That's not bad. In the past, Shi Qi could only be a concubine, and she didn't even have a title!"
Zhan Zhao was a little helpless, rubbing his temples and advising: "We, the children of Jianghu, don't care about this matter. As long as they like each other, it's fine. You are just a sister, not a close relative, let alone a matchmaker, so don't worry about it!"
Regardless of the other party's struggling, he grabbed her collar and entered the house.
…
Zhan Shiqi walked slowly on the street, and the majestic and solemn building of Dali Temple was clearly visible in the distance. This was not the first time she saw that door, but she had never thought that she would actually walk in it before.
The superficial reason was that she wanted to practice with Axiang, but in fact everyone knew that she came here for Zuozhou.
Zhan Shiqi is very smart. She has known how to fight for things that are beneficial to herself since she was a child. She is very aware of her weaknesses.
Zuo Zhou's contribution this time was so great that he was bound to be rewarded in the future. He gained the trust and gratitude of Princess Xiping, became a confidant of the Minister of Dali Temple, and even gained the attention of Emperor Qin!
With these blessings, his marriage cannot be decided easily by himself. Although it is a private matter from a personal point of view, people of the same class will work together to maintain those unwritten rules. If you break it, you will be punished.
squeeze out of the circle.
Zhan Shiqi doesn't always follow Zuo Zhou like A Xiang, nor does she have a foster father like Master Ximen to help Zhang. If she doesn't take the initiative now, when the reward comes, she may have to follow him as a maid.
We are with him. Note that we are with him, not working together as a police agent.
She took a long breath and stepped across the threshold of Dali Temple. At this point, she no longer hesitated and walked towards the backyard under the leadership of the Yamen servant.
Dali Temple is very large, with exclusive areas for trial cases and proposals, as well as living quarters, and even a large prison cell. Li Yuanfang and Yuchi Zhenjin, as the only two generals that Di Renjie can use now, live there.
Of course the place is very nice.
But when Zhan Qi saw Zuo Zhou and the others, he clearly felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere, especially... he was wearing women's clothing?
Well, that should be Zuo Zhou’s mother, the Demon Queen Zhu Yuyan!
It’s just that Zhu Yuyan is so young. She looks just a few years younger than Zuo Zhou. Can the magic sect’s martial arts keep her young?
Zhan Shiqi was a little envious. She came to Yuchi Zhenjin and Shuang'er and lay down in the corner with them, with the spirit of gossip burning in her eyes.
With a small courtyard, a stone table, and a corridor covered with wisteria flowers, the residence Di Renjie prepared for Zuo Zhou was quite nice.
Zhu Yuyan, Zuo Zhou, Zuo Feng, also known as Zuo Laohan, were drinking tea around the stone table.
"fine?"
"Good."
The conversation between Zhu Yuyan and Zuo Laohan is over.
Zuo Zhou had an awkward look on his face and spoke first, "Do you know what it feels like to see your own face wearing a dress?"
Zhu Yuyan didn't pay attention to Zuo Zhou's complaints, "Isn't this a novel experience?"
Zuo Zhou looked up and down again, "Don't tell me, it's really good-looking... No, you coming to the door so bluntly may affect my attempts!" He suppressed his honest body's instinctive approval.
Zhu Yuyan chuckled, "The Demon Sect may be beaten by everyone in the Tang Kingdom, but in the Qin Kingdom, we are ordinary people with some power at best."
Are these called ordinary people? What the hell do you mean to call ordinary people?
However, after complaining in his heart, Zuo Zhou's IQ came back online. After thinking for a moment, he said: "Isn't it possible that your Demon Sect has done nothing after coming to Da Qin for such a long time?"
"Of course I won't do nothing, but I won't do as much as those from famous and decent families."
From Zhu Yuyan's mouth, he couldn't hear any disdain for the famous and decent people. It was like ordinary people talking about the supermarket next door. The dispensable look made Zuo Zhou a little confused. But considering the thoughts in his mind about "Shuanglong of the Tang Dynasty"
After reading some of the descriptions in "The Biography", I also understood a little bit, "Who are you pressing on?"
Zhu Yuyan smiled, very satisfied with her son's performance, "Fan Qinghui met Di Renjie when she was in the Tang Dynasty. Through Di Renjie's springboard, she has already caught up with the emperor's eldest son Fusu. Cihang Jingzhai is ahead of everyone in this regard.
in front of."
Zuo Zhou paused for a moment, then looked at Zhu Yuyan with a meaningful expression, "So you put your treasure on Hu Hai?"
Zhu Yuyan's silence was regarded as acquiescence, but this choice is actually not a good choice, because the existence of the exiles is an open secret, then everyone should know that the second generation of Qin Dynasty died, and the second generation of Qin Dynasty was Hu Hai. Since
Even if everyone knows that he will die in his hands, will anyone still support him?
So if the magic sect puts the treasure on Hu Hai, is it like breaking a jar, or is it expecting a miracle to happen?
This is obviously not in line with the usual style of the Demon Sect, so not only the Demon Sect, but everyone should be waiting and watching now, just wanting to see, in this case, will this Hu Hai become the next emperor?
"Why did you come to me? Don't tell me, you're here to reminisce about old times." Zuo Zhou didn't believe that a person who had been indifferent to his son for more than ten years would suddenly develop maternal love.
"Wanwan said you were great, so she came to see you. It didn't disgrace the majesty of my magic sect."
Zuo Zhou was happy, "I didn't expect that I would be so popular in Wanwan's heart. Could it be that she likes me?"
"It's not a good thing to be interested in a girl from the Demon Sect." Zhu Yuyan's words were a bit meaningful. It couldn't be said to be a threat or something like that, but Zuo Zhou felt that he, as a son, might not have a master-disciple relationship.
But Zuo Zhou didn't care, "Now the reminiscing about old times is over. After all, I am a member of the public family. I can't see you anymore or not."
"What? Your identity as the Demonic Prince makes you embarrassed?" Zhu Yuyan smiled a little dangerously.
Zuo Zhou nodded magnanimously, "After all, I am a member of the imperial court system. The title of 'Prince' cannot be used randomly. Besides, my status does not bring any convenience. On the contrary, I am also being watched by Cihang Jingzhai."
It’s very uncomfortable.”
Zhu Yuyan looked at him curiously, "What do you mean, do you want power? Or do you want to do something with the power of the Demon Sect?"
"Don't get me wrong, I have no interest in those people from the Demon Sect who have ulterior motives. I just feel that Senior Sister Wanwan is always messing around with you monsters and monsters. It's better to stay with me and read more and learn more. That's the right way.
!”
"..." Zhu Yuyan was silent for a while, and then looked at Old Man Zuo for the first time, "Maybe I shouldn't have sent the child back in the first place."
Old Man Zuo didn't seem to have much skill, but he was not afraid at all. Faced with Zhu Yuyan's gaze, he hummed: "As a man, there's nothing wrong with being romantic. Just be responsible."
"Do you feel responsible?"
"At least I didn't kill any more people except you who used my tricks." Old man Zuo seemed to be quite proud of himself back then. It was like walking through a bush of thousands of flowers without even a single leaf touching him.
Zuo Zhou(;¬_¬) "You two said that, I'm afraid you haven't considered my feelings."
"No need to think about it."×2
"..."
Zhu Yuyan had no intention of continuing the argument, and reached out to wave in the distance. Yuchi Zhenjin and the other three were stunned for a moment, looked at each other, and then pushed Zhan Shiqi, "The eldest sister is calling you over!"
Zhan Shiqi staggered, feeling more and more unsure. As the Yin Queen of the Demon Sect, Zhu Yuyan was considered to be one of the best among female masters. Although her realm has been stuck at Xiantian Dzogchen for so many years, it does not mean that her attack power has only stopped.
In the innate range.
Now that such a person suddenly calls me over, it's... a little scary!
Zhan Shiqi came to the table pretending to be calm. Zhu Yuyan looked up and down and suddenly smiled, quite happily, as if she was looking at her daughter-in-law.
Then, with Zuo Zhou and Zuo Old Man stunned, he took out a translucent jade bracelet from his sleeve and put it on her wrist before Zhan Shiqi could react.
