After Zuo Shao left, he went straight to his study. His study was organized according to Master Zuo, three big bookcases with the majority of the books inside they had read before. However, he was very confused, what's the use of reading all day long?
Could it be that he had to follow his father's example, for he was still an idle scholar in his middle years. He spent all his time together with these so-called literati to play with the whores, admiring the beauty of the world? If he had to live his whole life like this, why would he need to study? Why practice? Why take the exam?
Zuo Family and ancestors were very rich, there were many fertile land and shops, and if there was no need to worry about food and clothes within the third generation, then what was he studying for?
"Bam!" Zuo Shaoyang swept the ink and paper on the desk to the ground and kicked down the enamel two-eared bottle closest to him.
"Uncle, what's wrong?" A slim girl pushed open the door and entered. It was the purple bamboo that Zuo Shaoqing had seen before. She cried out in fright, "Master, you can't vent your anger on a vase even if you're not well. Madam came looking for this."
Mrs. Xue originally wanted to give this servant girl to her eldest son to make a room, but Zuo Shaoyang didn't immediately give up his wife's face and just left her in the study as a first-class maid.
Mrs. Xue simply looked down on the eldest son and daughter-in-law of this daughter of a county. However, Zuo Shaoyang still needed to use his wife's face to get a position as the head of the yamen.
Only this kind of a ninth rank official would not be noticed by the imperial court. However, how could he be willing to spend his life in such a small place as a principal?
As the fire in his heart gradually grew stronger, Zuo Shaoyang grabbed the Violet Bamboo's arm and forcefully pressed the person on the desk, then roughly tore off her clothes.
"Master …" Zi Zhu was delighted. He used both of his hands to lightly press on Zuo Shaoyang's chest. His face showed that he wanted to refuse but was still welcoming. Very quickly, a lustful moan sounded out in the study room.
"..."
Under the night sky, a figure stumbled towards the backyard. Judging from her figure, it was a woman. She turned around in three steps with a nervous expression on her face. In the end, she had actually chosen the quietest path.
He sighed in satisfaction as he heard Luo Xiaoliu complain endlessly, "Previously, when I was injured, Nanny Liu went to the kitchen and begged for forgiveness, asking the kitchen to make some soup for you. In the end, they even ignored us, but now, with just a word, they managed to make a bowl of this chicken soup, it's really …"
Zuo Shaoqing knew what he wanted to say, it was just another person with different lives, "In the eyes of the people under the Zuo's Mansion, the entire Zuo Family will belong to Big Brother in the future, do they dare to offend him? Weren't you the same back then? " Otherwise, how could he have become the chess piece that Mrs. Xue had placed in front of him?
Luo Xiaoliu tentatively emphasized: "Master, this servant was forced!"
"Alright, stop nagging, help this grandpa pack the remaining half of the Gu chicken soup." Zuo Shaoqing got up and put on a thick cloak with a bunch of grey rabbit fur at the side of the collar covering his entire chin.
Luo Xiaoliu felt his heart ache. This San Ye really didn't have it easy. He had to feed himself after taking care of San Ye, and it wasn't easy for him to take care of Third Master Zuo.
Zuo Shaoqing ignored the matter of letting Young Master Lu drink his saliva. He just thought to himself, I didn't prepare the roast chicken for him today, so it wouldn't be against his orders to bring half a stewed chicken, right?
Zuo Shaoqing went out of the house against the night wind. He still chose the most secluded path and walked out. When he went around the lotus pond in the backyard, he suddenly stopped and asked, "Who's there?"
A black shadow ran off into the distance, and Zuo Shaoqing hurriedly went forward to intercept it. If people knew that not only was Third Master of the Zuo Family unharmed, but he also slipped out the door in the middle of the night, then even Zuo Yunwen would not be able to protect him.
"Ah …" "Ugh …" Zuo Shaoqing covered the black shadow's mouth as soon as it let out a short scream.
"Violet Bamboo?" Zuo Shaoqing thought it was some silly little girl. He didn't expect to run into his old enemy here. This servant girl had insulted him a lot back then, and was a dog by Mrs. Xue's side.
"What are you doing here in the middle of the night?" Zuo Shaoqing was so close that he could smell the strong musky scent of the purple bamboo. It was not hard to guess what she had done before, not to mention that this woman's clothes were still untidy.
"Woo woo …"
"I can let you go, but you have to promise not to yell."
"Woo woo …" Violet Bamboo nodded.
Zuo Shaoqing walked in front of her and carefully looked at the unusual appearance of the purple bamboo. Even if the other person had lowered his head, he could still clearly see the wound on her face and neck.
Zuo Shaoqing squinted his eyes. He didn't expect his good brother to have such a hobby, hehe … Isn't this the key to sending himself to the door?
Zi Zhu quickly calmed down, raised his head and looked at Zuo Shaoqing, "Isn't San Ye injured?" Why did he come here in the middle of the night? If I tell Madame about this, Lord Third might not be able to get away with it! "
"Oh? What are you going to tell her? " Zuo Shaoqing raised her chin and admired her red and swollen face, "Tell her you've been abused? Tell her that Master Zuo Family has an unusual hobby? "
A trace of panic flashed across Zi Zhu's eyes. He forced himself to remain calm and said, "If Madam knew that San Ye purposefully framed Second Master, San Ye would definitely meet a worse end!"
"So?"
"Third Lord, just pretend you didn't see me tonight."
Zuo Shaoqing slowly let go of his hand. With a smile, he said with a sincere expression, "Yeah, I really haven't seen you before tonight." With that, he quickly tapped her acupoints when the purple bamboo loosened its opening, and then brought the person to the lakeside.
"What do you think will happen if we find your body in the lake tomorrow? That scene would definitely be very sensational. When the time comes … Hehe, the entire Zuo's Mansion, and even the entire Youuxi Town will know of Master Zuo Family's special hobby. If I don't take advantage of such a good opportunity, how can I face this reaping new life of mine? "
Violet Bamboo's pupils contracted. She couldn't believe that this sinister youth in front of her was the cowardly Third Master that she knew. Her lips trembled as she wanted to ask for help, but she found that she couldn't make a sound.
No... She still didn't want to die!
Zuo Shaoqing reached out his hand and gave it a gentle push. Soon after, he heard a "Putong" sound.
"You're just a little rascal and yet you dare to challenge me!" Zuo Shaoqing patted his sleeves, picked up the pot and walked out of the house with a calm expression, as if what he pushed into the lake was not a person but a rock.
Actually, even Zuo Shaoqing himself was shocked. At the moment he pushed the person down, he did not hesitate at all. In his eyes, life could no longer arouse any ripples.
Arriving at the mountain, Zuo Shaoqing poured out the warm chicken soup and passed it to Lu Zheng, who was still awake, "I've asked the doctor for help tonight. It's not good to eat spicy and hot food for your injuries. This chicken soup is perfect. Try it."
Wu Tie finished the soup in a few mouthfuls, along with the chicken. Zuo Shaoqing knew that this half of the chicken could only be used as an appetizer, so he took out the sesame seed cake that Nanny Liu made.
The sesame seed cake was big and had a lot of weight. Zuo Shaoqing could only eat two cakes at most, but looking at Lu Zheng's appearance, these five sesame seed cakes would probably all go to his stomach at one go.
This was too edible! Could it be that all martial artists were like this? No, that's not right. He, Zuo Shaoqing, could be considered half a martial artist. The only difference was that the former was a war god whose name shook the world, while the latter was just a nobody.
Lu Zheng stopped after chewing the two sesame seed cakes. He probably realized that he would starve after one full meal, so he could only lie down obediently.
"Your surname is Zuo?" It was Lu Zheng's first time speaking tonight.
"Yes." Zuo Shaoqing lowered his eyelids, and his long eyelashes reflected a shadow under the light.
"Who is Zuo Houshun to you?"
Zuo Shaoqing took a step back and pretended to struggle as he replied in a low voice, "It's my great-grandfather."
Zuo Houshun was the most famous person in the Zuo Family family tree. His Zuo Family flourished, and he lost to him.
His father was once this Tutor Zuo's student, and if not for the fact that he was promoted to the position of crown prince later on, the current Zuo Family would not be something an ordinary courtier could compare with.
Seeing that Lu Zheng didn't have any hostility towards him, Zuo Shaoqing asked, "I still don't know your name, brother."
Lu Zheng raised his head as a slight curve slowly formed on the corner of his mouth. If Zuo Shaoqing hadn't been studying the changes in his expression, he probably wouldn't have noticed it.
"Didn't you already know?"
"Boom..." With a loud explosion, his heart beat faster and faster, his entire body chilled from head to toe. "I …" I was born late, so I didn't understand what your brother meant. "
Zuo Shaoqing's hands and feet were cold. Even though he was wrapped in the cloak, he still felt a chilly wind blowing into his neck. In order for Lu Zheng to be able to see that the bag was still there, he even put it on top of his clothes.
Although he didn't understand how Lu Zheng found it, he still obediently handed the bag to him. He thought to himself: "Did Lu Zheng already notice that the note in the bag is missing?"
