Chapter 1823 The Veteran General Joins

"Went to Yongze City and killed a local gang, the Thunder Fire Gang."

"There is also a family living in the slums in the south of the city. He gave them sixteen gold coins."

Yan Xing placed sixteen gold coins on the table and lined them up.

Ji Ba picked up a gold coin and said coldly: "Is there nothing else?"

Yan Xing replied: "No more."

During this period, Zhou Zheng's whereabouts were uncertain. Ji Ba became suspicious and sent someone to keep an eye on Zhou Zheng.

This morning, Zhou Zheng went out early, and Yan Xing secretly followed him all the way to Yongze City.

Yan Xing saw what happened from a distance.

After the family of three escaped from Yongze City, they were killed by Yan Xing.

"I thought he forgot."

Ji Ba sneered and threw the gold coins on the table, as if he didn't mind Zhou Zheng's behavior.

Yan Xing asked in confusion: "President, why did Zhou Zheng... go to Yongze City to kill people?"

Yan Xing has been working in Sifang Building, Zhou Zheng has been following Ji Ba for a long time, and Yan Xing has just arrived, so he doesn't know many things.

Ji Ba said coldly: "It's nothing, it's just revenge, it's okay."

Ji Ba knew very well the details of Zhou Zheng's past. The person Zhou Zheng killed was the villain who killed his adoptive father and sold him to the Tianxiahui.

Ji Ba didn't say anything, so Yan Xing naturally didn't dare to ask any more questions and said, "I'm resigning."

After exiting the room and returning to his bedroom, Zhou Zheng had already returned from taking a shower.

"The president didn't look for me, did he?"

Zhou Zheng's tone was calm, as if he just went out for a walk.

"No, Brother Zheng has been out for a day. Are you feeling unwell?"

Yan Xing asked with concern.

Zhou Zheng smiled and said, "Fortunately, my health is much better."

"I had a dream last night, and I remembered that I wanted to meet some old friends."

After saying that, Zhou Zheng sighed quietly, as if he was a little sad, but also seemed to be a little relieved.

"Old friends? Family members? Brother Zheng has relatives? I'm so envious. I'm the only one left in my family."

Yan Xing's tone seemed sad, but Zhou Zheng had already sensed the temptation.

The president was following him, and Zhou Zheng immediately made a judgment.

When he thought of this, Zhou Zheng felt his whole body numb.

When did you start doubting yourself? Are you being followed all the time?

Or start from today?

Zhou Zheng tried his best to suppress the uneasiness and fear in his heart, sat down next to the window, and turned to look out the window.

It was already dark at this time, and there was a candle on the table, but he didn't light it because he didn't want Yan Xing to see his face.

"I don't have any relatives. I was an orphan and an abandoned person when I was born."

Zhou Zheng's voice was slightly trembling. This was the instinctive fear, the fear of death...

Zhou Zheng felt strange, when did he start to be so afraid of death?

Abandoned and sold since childhood, in the indifferent human ice cave of Tianxiahui, he no longer fears life and death.

When did this desire for life start to come back?

It started when I rescued Meiji...

If she died, Mei Ji would have to raise her children alone, leaving her orphaned and widowed, which would be another tragedy.

Yan Xing heard something was wrong in Zhou Zheng's voice. He thought Zhou Zheng was remembering sad past events and didn't pay much attention to it.

"I'm sorry, I mentioned something that Brother Zheng didn't want to mention."

Yan Xing said apologetically.

Zhou Zheng took a deep breath and asked, "Has the president taken any more medicine?"

Yan Xing said hesitantly: "No, it's already fine."

Zhou Zheng nodded and said, "That's good. We're going to Nanliang right away. It's hot and humid there. If it's not completely healed, it will be very troublesome."

"When you get to Nanliang, you must remember to remind the president to change clothes and eat more cool things. The president is prone to prickly heat."

Yan Xing immediately wrote down: "Thank you, Brother Zheng, for reminding me. I'll remember it."

Zhou Zheng sighed, pretended to be in a bad mood, and went back to his room to sleep.

....

Capital, Li Mansion.

Bai Tingting finished her bath and practiced meditation in her room.

Sisters Zhang Qian, Dugu Jiali, and Wu Chuchu live in Longshuai's Mansion all year round. Bai Tingting can only live there occasionally because her home is in the capital and it is not good to live with Long Chen for too long.

Dong dong dong...

Li Junjun knocked on the door outside.

"Tingting, can dad come in?"

Bai Tingting opened her eyes and glanced at the door, feeling a little impatient.

"What's the matter?"

Long Chen persuaded Bai Tingting for a long time, and she was finally willing to talk to Li Junjun.

"It's nothing, just... some matters in the DPRK that I want to discuss with you."

Bai Tingting guessed what was going on, and she must have been trying to persuade her to live more in Long Shuai's mansion and build more relationships with Long Chen. If Long Chen really turned back into a man, she could marry him naturally.

Li Junjun has said this once.

"I don't understand the affairs of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, so don't discuss it with me."

Bai Tingting doesn't want to talk about this topic.

Li Junjun stood outside the door for a moment, knowing that Bai Tingting didn't want to talk about it, so he shook his head helplessly and left.

Long Chen is now at the height of his power. If Bai Tingting marries Long Chen, then he can be as rich as his father.

Hearing Li Junjun leave, Bai Tingting sighed: "It's really troublesome, a bunch of people are staring at me."

After getting the news, Li Junjun was not the only one who wanted to marry his daughter to Long Chen. He also had daughters at home who were ready to do so.

I heard that Dong Ping has closed his doors and been out of sight because too many people have asked him about the situation.

"No, we can't let anyone get there first."

Bai Tingting changed her clothes, dressed up carefully, and then quietly rode to Commander Long's Mansion.

Li Junjun was in the room thinking about how to successfully marry his daughter to Long Chen. The butler walked in with a bent smile and said: "Master, the young master went out on horseback and dressed up a lot."

Li Junjun said happily: "Are you going to Long Shuai's Mansion?"

The butler chuckled and said, "Who else can make my little master dress up except Dazhuguo?"

As the saying goes, women only look good to please themselves. Bai Tingting was only interested in Long Chen and would only put on makeup when she saw Long Chen.

"Okay, that's good. Tingting and Dazhuguo have been together for many years and have a deep relationship, unlike other people in the court."

"Those people are really shameless. They laughed at me at first and said that my daughter hangs out with the eunuchs all day long. Now they are shameless and want to send my daughter to Long Shuai's Mansion. They have no sense of shame!"

Li Junjun feels that he has made a lot of money.

The housekeeper echoed: "Don't worry, sir. If Dazhuguo changes back to a man, the young master will definitely have his title."

"The other adults' daughters don't know Dazhu Kingdom, so they can't steal it from the young master."

Li Junjun felt that it made sense and said happily: "When Tingting marries Dazhuguo, maybe the fourth princess will marry... Oh no, if Dazhuguo is recruited as the consort, then..."

Halfway through his happiness, Li Junjun was poured another bucket of ice water.

The prince-in-law was only allowed to marry a princess and was not allowed to have concubines.

"Don't worry, sir, Dazhu Kingdom is different. The fourth princess wants to recruit Dazhu Kingdom to be her consort, and the third princess also wants to do it."

"I estimate that both princesses will marry Dazhu Kingdom. Since you can marry two princesses, you can also marry several concubines."

The butler was very witty, and Li Junjun greatly agreed: "Yes, that's it. I was worrying too much."

....

Bai Tingting rode into Long Shuai's mansion. He Juntao came out to welcome him and asked strangely: "General Bai, why are you here at night?"
