The child's silly laughter came to Zuo Zhou's ears, and he mechanically threw Chu Chu up and down. This was the first time he came to see her after coming back. It turned out that he didn't know when he started, but this child actually liked this kind of behavior.
It feels like ups and downs, well, hey, she can also pose in various poses in the air, like a monkey about to cause havoc in heaven!
Old man Zuo looked at this extremely harmonious and warm scene, and his face folded into a smile, "Don't run away blindly. Chu Chu is already over two years old, but she can't even call 'daddy' now. You
Are you ashamed?"
Zuo Zhou continued to throw it carelessly, but he hummed without looking back: "That shows that I am still very dignified as a general. If anyone dares to teach children indiscriminately, see if I will go crazy!"
The old man Zuo gave his son a big eye roll, "Come here, grandpa, give him a hug!"
With this call, Chu Chu stretched out her hand in the air and assumed the posture of Superman flying into the sky. Zuo Zhou had no choice but to send it into the arms of the old man Zuo. The whole process was as smooth as Dove.
"Call Grandpa!"
"grandfather!"
"good!"
Listening to the soft sound of milk, the old man Zuo glanced at Zuo Zhou proudly.
Hey! I have such a bad temper, if I don’t teach this girl to call ‘Dad’, I won’t leave this imperial capital!
Just when Zuo Zhou was secretly feeling cruel, Li Xunhuan walked in from the outer door with a slightly lonely expression and forced a smile.
"What's wrong? Work is not going well?" Zuo Zhou asked casually.
"I have to be transferred to a certain place to be a county magistrate, so I just resigned." Li Xunhuan replied, as if he had put down something, and his face looked better.
Zuo Zhou was a little curious, "What's wrong? Something went wrong at work?"
Li Xunhuan's face turned slightly red when he heard this, and he seemed quite embarrassed.
Zuo Zhou became even more curious, "Is there anything we can't say between you and my master and apprentice? Please be lenient if you confess!"
Li Xunhuan couldn't laugh or cry, what a bad character this master has...he paused and said, "Because I was lazy at work, at least...that's what they said!"
"Are you lazy?" Zuo Zhou didn't believe this.
But when he saw another person walking outside, he said coldly and angrily: "What kind of laziness is this? It's obviously those shameless people who deliberately exclude us!"
Zuo Zhou looked at Yan Qing and then at Li Xunhuan, "Say!"
Yan Qing's face was ashen and her eyes were sharp, as if she was looking for someone to give her a good beating, and she began to narrate what happened.
The thing is like this. Originally, Li Xunhuan was doing a good job, and a bunch of ministers were working well under Bao Zheng. But suddenly one day, those ministers reported Li Xunhuan, and the reason for the report was that he was lazy during working hours. The specific performance is as follows:
Yu Li Xunhuan made one more trip to the toilet!
There are some physiological differences between women and men. Li Xunhuan didn't think much about it when she went to work that day. She didn't notice that her colleagues hadn't gone to the toilet once since the morning. When she went there, there happened to be several officials.
When I came to inspect, my usually friendly colleagues reported Li Xunhuan, as if she was a habitual offender who worked in the toilet all day long.
Then Hu Hai made a decree and transferred her to a remote corner to be the county magistrate. How smart Li Xunhuan was. When had an official inspected Bao Zheng's territory? If you think about the strong bladder capacity of his colleagues that day, you will understand.
, so he took the initiative to resign and resume his civilian status.
Zuo Zhou was very happy and slapped his hands on the floor. This Hu Hai's ability to find trouble is getting stronger and stronger, and he is becoming more and more talented as a comedian.
"How's it going? You know how helpless it is to be an official, right?"
Li Xunhuan smiled bitterly and shook his head, "Disciple, you should focus on your cultivation from now on. This officialdom..."
"It's not a big problem. As an official, it doesn't matter whether you do it or not. By the way, what did Bao Zheng say?"
"Mr. Bao went to meet with Hu Hai, but he seemed to have suffered a setback. After all, many officials reported at the same time, and I was indeed not there when the inspection officials came. If I insist that I am slacking off, there is nothing I can do. But Gong Bao said
Well, it may not be a bad thing for me to leave officialdom, at least I will be free in the future."
The old man Zuo had a bad expression and sighed: "This is because Hu Hai is jealous of you. You should also calm down and don't always do things that make him jealous. Wasn't it good before? How did it get to this point?"
Zuo Zhou spread his hands, "What does this have to do with me? How do I know what's wrong with Hu Hai?"
The old man Zuo shook his head, "Forget it, please help me. There are many young people who took part in the imperial examination because of me. If Hu Hai is targeting you now, I'm afraid they will also suffer. If you just lose your official position, that's it."
That’s all, I’m afraid that I might even lose my life, so please help me remind them.”
Zuo Zhou nodded, stood up and entered the room, flipping over the scrolls on Zuo Old Man's table. Those talented people who came here because of Zuo Old Man's reputation had all given calligraphy treasures to them. All they needed to do was compare them with these names.
Zuo Zhou's speed was so fast. In just one day, Zuo Zhou's figure appeared everywhere in the city, and even attracted the attention of the archers in the watchtower. Zuo Zhou even greeted him warmly!
It was another day, and Zhang Liang was the first to resign during the morning court. If it weren't for Old Man Zuo, he would have stopped waiting long ago.
Both Zhang Liang and Li Xunhuan are talented people, but when it comes to the sense of being an official, Zhang Liang is still far superior to Li Xunhuan. He has noticed something strange from a long time ago.
The simplest one is that you have made a meritorious service, and there is no superior official to take credit for it, and there is no enemy to deliberately suppress and slander, but there is no reward from above, which is very wrong. So at that time, Zhang Liang knew that they were being targeted, and now he has Zuo Zhou
The notice was that of resignation simply and happily.
Like Zhang Liang, there were more than 20 people who resigned from office, and they were in various ministries and yamen, which also shocked the civil and military officials of the entire court. Some people even thought that these officials were forcing the palace!
However, if you look closely, you will see that these officials are generally young and have low official positions, so they don't care.
This farce came and went quickly. Life seemed to have never changed because of it. Hu Hai didn't even try to stay on the surface.
In Hu Hai's proud words, 'The Qin Dynasty has no shortage of talents. This is my victory!'
…
"Haha, judging from his thinking, this is indeed his victory."
In Zuiyue Tower, Zuo Zhou laughed with Lu Xiaofeng and Ximen Chuixue.
Lu Xiaofeng picked up the wine glass and took a sip, then filled it with Zuo Zhou, "In Hu Hai's eyes, you should be considered a 'failure in the party struggle'?"
Zuo Zhou thought for a moment and replied: "It can be said that Hu Hai's thinking has always been different from that of the former Qin Emperor. He is more like the emperors of other countries. He plays with balance and pays attention to controlling people.
In his opinion, at this time, I am afraid that I should not use methods such as remonstrance or public opinion to get rid of some of his confidants, or find something to force him to do something, so as to show some color to the emperor."
Lu Xiaofeng clicked her tongue when she heard this, "You see clearly, what are you going to do?"
"I don't do much. When Chu Chu can call him 'daddy', I will move away. I'm too lazy to argue with him. I actually envy Wu Ming. I can live in a city by myself and no one dares to mess with him!"
"That's not your style."
"What's my style?"
"You must retaliate!"
"How can you accuse someone of innocence out of thin air? Who doesn't know that I am a generous person!"
Zuo Zhou turned away and was too lazy to pay attention to them, but his eyes fell on the roof opposite, where a beautiful and playful figure was sitting on the edge.
She swayed her feet playfully, her fair skin dazzling in the sun.
"Brother Li, let's go. The beauty invites you, and you can't live up to this wonderful time." Lu Xiaofeng reached out and grabbed Zuo Zhou's wine glass, waving her hand like a flock of sheep.
Zuo Zhou went downstairs with a smile on his face, but he had no interest in having a private meeting on the rooftop with his beautiful lady. Instead, he wandered out of the city. It wasn't until he came to a small stream in the suburbs that a beautiful shadow slowly floated down.
Wanwan moved her delicate body and fell directly into Zuo Zhou's arms!
Zuo Zhou took advantage of the situation and sat down, holding Wanwan's back with one hand and putting his other hand on her leg, "Why are you so proactive today? Have you figured it out and want to practice dual cultivation with your junior brother and me?"
"Xiu you ghost, I just heard that you were frustrated in your official career, so I came to comfort you!"
"I see, then the level of comfort is slightly lower." He started to act dishonestly, gently going deep under the skirt and stroking the smooth calf. Well, it feels top-notch.
Wanwan seemed not to notice, arching her body to find a comfortable position, "Master is very angry."
"What? Hu Hai won't take action against the Demon Sect, right?"
Zuo Zhou raised his eyebrows, and there was a bit of expectation in his words. The Demon Sect was the winner of the last succession of thrones, so now the most powerful intelligence agency in Da Qin is the Demon Sect. So if Hu Hai wants to get rid of the Demon Sect
What should I do to keep in touch with myself?
"He is secretly contacting people from various factions of the Demon Sect, and seems to want to evacuate the master's power."
Zuo Zhou was not surprised, "Well, he is quite smart. He was very keen to see the inconsistencies in the composition of the Demon Sect. But he forgot one thing. The Demon Sect is simpler and more straightforward than other sects.
Bai, whoever is stronger and can defeat the enemy will be the boss! Does Hu Hai have a useful card in his hand? Xu Fu? Yin Man? Or Bai Qi?"
"I don't know, there are not many people who can surpass the master among the masters in the list of people. From what I saw, Hu Hai's intention seems to be that he wants to evade the master in terms of power, that's all."
Zuo Zhou had a strange expression, "How should I put it? Playing peaceful evolution with the Demon Sect, I don't know what's inside this head. Well, what do you think, master?"
Wanwan reached out and patted Zuo Zhou's chest gently, "Don't always call me master, master, that's your mother!"
"She's my mother, not your mother. Why are you so aggressive? Could it be that...you are greedy for my body!"
Wanwan wanted to stand up in embarrassment, but found that she was in a position where she couldn't exert her strength. After a slight struggle, she fell into Zuo Zhou's arms again, "You made all those talented people resign, and people said you were shrinking.
We are leaving the Imperial Capital!"
Zuo Zhou raised his eyebrows, stretched out his hand and flicked Wanwan's toes, "This rumor shouldn't be spread by the Demon Sect, right? Haha, interesting! Then help me spread this rumor wider and give Hu Hai a little victory.
Be joyful."
Wanwan looked at him strangely, not to mention he was really handsome from this angle!
"what you up to?"
"Nothing, I just want to know what other countries will do if they find out that the Emperor of Qin and General Li Yuanfang are not getting along? I'm curious!"
