Reborn: The First Rank "Madam"

Reborn: The First Rank “Madam” – C169

C169 – Self-inflicted Evil

When Tutor Zeng was young, he was also a regular customer of the brothel. He asked a few close friends to accompany him, and found a beautiful and knowledgeable man to accompany him. He was very happy when he composed poems and poems.

However, these days gradually grew fewer and fewer as he grew older. Now that he even had great-grandchildren, he naturally wouldn’t call himself a debauchee and spend all his time running to the brothel.

Therefore, when he found out that his grandson had been detained by Master Lu, his old face flushed red with anger.

This good-for-nothing grandson of his had caused quite a bit of trouble for him, but it was a pity that his old wife doted on him dotingly and took care of him, acting like he didn’t know anything.

It wasn’t that he didn’t know that Zeng Family had no successors, but since each of them looked like this, what could he do?

Tutor Zeng was full of bitterness when he thought about Shang Xianyang’s complacent face when he mentioned his family’s grandson.

“Old Master, you should go take a look …” Young Master Sun was injured, the doctor said he was afraid that it would be his entire life… “I’m afraid …”

“What?” Tutor Zeng slapped the table and got up, and scolded angrily: “What exactly happened? Why did Master Lu seriously injure him when he was still perfectly fine? “

The messenger replied with a bitter face, “It wasn’t Master Lu who hurt him. It was …” It was his wife, Young Master Sun. seems to have offended him. “

Tutor Zeng’s eyebrows trembled and he asked calmly: “Is it that shameless man’s wife?” Seeing the butler nod, he snorted coldly, “Let’s go, this old man wants to see what he, a person who relies on the love of a man, can do to the children of my Zeng Family!”

The manager walked behind him with his back bent. He couldn’t help but curse in his heart: “No matter what his identity is, Master Lu is standing behind him. Besides, he was tricked by a man this time.”

By the time Tutor Zeng arrived, most of the guests had dispersed. The girls were hiding in their rooms with the windows open, secretly watching Master Lu’s handsome appearance.

Before Master Lu was married, they had also imagined that if Master Lu could come here one day like other officials, it would be worth it to post him instead.

It was a pity that this old man had married a man, and everyone knew that he was not a woman’s man, so they gave up.

“Master Lu, disrespectful to our unfilial son. Please be magnanimous!” Tutor Zeng glanced at his grandson, who was still unconscious, and said while holding back his anger.

Lu Zheng sat on the teacher’s chair, with tea on the side. Behind him, Zuo Shaoqing was bending his shoulders and pinching his chest from time to time.

Lu Zheng put down the teacup heavily and said coldly: “I’ve heard that the Zeng Family Hierarchy isn’t strict. Seeing him today, he really lives up to his reputation.”

Tutor Zeng’s face reddened. Although this was the truth, to be criticized in public like this by someone from the younger generation, how embarrassing would that be?

“Regardless of how my unfilial son offended your wife, he has already received the greatest punishment. I hope that Master Lu can let bygones be bygones.” Tutor Zeng’s sharp eyes fell on Zuo Shaoqing’s body. Shame and anger mixed together.

From his tone, Zuo Shaoqing could tell that this old man was not a good person. Ever since he was appointed as the Ministry of Works Elder, everyone had only called him “Director Zuo, Lord Zuo”, but this old man insisted on saying “Madam”, how could he not hate him?

Instead of the previous one, he stood up and bowed to Tutor Zeng, saying sternly, “Honored tutor, this humble official is an imperial court official, yet I was publicly humiliated by an ignorant child. Furthermore, the other party has put forward outrageous and shameless conditions. This official accidentally injured your grandson out of self-defense. If you really want to hold this official accountable, then this official has nothing to say! “

Zuo Shaoqing’s words pushed all the blame onto the grandson of Zeng Family. He was just a small fry who had no choice but to retaliate when bullied and humiliated.

However, this was indeed the case. It was just that he was slightly too strong in his counterattack.

Of course, he would never admit this. “This official was only distracted because I was flustered. If I knew that this young master was the honored tutor’s grandson, this official would definitely not be able to retaliate. As for …” As for your grandson’s unreasonable request, please forgive me for being unable to comply with it even if I die! “

Tutor Zeng thought of this so-called unreasonable request and his teeth started to hurt. Just by one, his grandson deserved to die.

Judging from Master Lu’s attitude, things might not be resolved so easily. He had no choice but to swallow this loss.

“It was my lack of strict discipline that frightened Madam.” Tutor Zeng lowered his head for the first time.

He and Lu Zheng were of the same rank, one was the literary world’s leader, and the other was the military official. However, he was of a higher rank than Lu Zheng, Tutor Zeng did not previously feel that he was inferior to Lu Zheng, but now, for the sake of this good-for-nothing grandson, he actually had to humbly apologize to a lowly man’s wife.

He could barely swallow it, but it was hard to swallow.

Zuo Shaoqing did not have any good impression of his family. At this moment, he saw Tutor Zeng’s anger dissipate a little as the corner of his mouth slightly raised. Lu Zheng, who was at the side, sneered and said, “The sins of the heavens can be forgiven.”

Tutor Zeng’s chest was heaving up and down, and he said with a straight face: “If you change Japanese officials, you will definitely bring your unfilial son to apologize!”

“There’s no need for me to visit you. I don’t think your grandson will have the chance to do so.” Lu Zheng waved his hand, and a guard behind him immediately passed a booklet to the capital’s governor.

The level of the capital’s governor was not as high as the two of them. Tutor Zeng bowed and retreated to one side to use as a scenery board. He was just about to find an opportunity to slip away, but he didn’t expect to receive such a thing.

The thin booklet listed a string of crimes, such as stealing from a chicken, stealing from a dog, bullying men and bullying women, and even allowing his subordinates to injure someone. There were only one, but it was enough for this Zeng Family grandchild to sit through the prison.

“This …” The capital’s governor looked at Tutor Zeng with a troubled expression, waiting for him to express his stance.

“What is it? “Is the crime above not enough to bring someone back?” Lu Zheng asked plainly.

“No …” No, this… However, the prisoner is in a coma right now, so this official wonders if he should wait for someone to wake up before arresting him. “

“This official is impressed by the benevolence and benevolence of the governor!” Zuo Shaoqing bowed to him, then carried the teapot to the unconscious fatty and poured the teapot down.

The water in the teapot was just warm. Zuo Shaoqing poured the water while concentrating his inner strength at his fingertips, and then quietly tapped on Fatty’s chest.

Everyone was shocked by Zuo Shaoqing’s sudden action, Tutor Zeng even jumped out and berated him: “Zuo Shaoqing, don’t go too far! This old man is not dead yet! “

Zuo Shaoqing threw down the empty teapot, turned around and winked at him, “Why would Tutor Zeng say that? This official only wanted to wake up the prisoner. Could it be … Tutor Zeng wanted to help others break the law and prevent your grandson from being taken away? “

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, how could Tutor Zeng, who cared so much about his reputation, ruin himself? He took a deep breath and said: “Of course not, but why did you treat a wounded person like that?”

Seeing his grandson looking at him confusedly, Tutor Zeng couldn’t bear it anymore and stopped looking at him.

Seeing that the person in charge of the capital had woken up, and that there was no longer any reason to delay, he could only order someone to escort this grandson of the Zeng Family back to the yamen.

“No …” What are you all planning to do? … … Grandfather, save me… “Let go of this young master!” It was only when the sound disappeared into the night did Tutor Zeng slowly turn his head and look outside the door in a daze. He then gave Zuo Shaoqing a cold snort and left.

Zuo Shaoqing rubbed his nose, feeling confused. Wasn’t it good to solve this kind of disaster earlier so as to not drag the family down?

After the Zeng Family and the yamen’s people left, the great hall quickly became deserted. The spectators who stayed behind to watch the show were all worried that there would be trouble, so they hurriedly left as well.

Lu Zheng stood up, turned around and left without saying a word.

Zuo Shaoqing cupped his fists towards Jiung Hengzhou, “Brother Jiung, I have disturbed your good mood today. I will apologize to Brother Jiung another day.”

Jiung Hengzhou retracted his gaze from Lu Zheng’s back and said with an unnatural smile, “No need, it’s getting late. I should also take my leave now.”

Zuo Shaoqing was only polite for a bit. After hearing this, he ran to catch up with Lu Zheng and whispered good words next to him, trying to quell Lu Zheng’s anger.

“Aha, that Zeng Family is not a good thing. It can’t be that Tutor Zeng hates us now, right?”

“Sigh, if I knew that he was Zeng Family’s grandson, I would have lowered my foot earlier.”

“But with this grandpa’s abilities, there’s definitely no need to be afraid of him. Speaking of which, there’s still enmity between our Zuo Family. You can be considered to have avenged our Zuo Family.”

Seeing Lu Zheng indifferently mount the horse, Zuo Shaoqing twisted his finger and looked at him expectantly, waiting for him to pull him up as usual.

Unfortunately, this time Lu Zheng didn’t have any intention of taking him with him and rode off on his own. Zuo Shaoqing sighed and stole a guard’s horse.

When they were together, he leaned close to Lu Zheng and said: “This small matter isn’t worth your anger, is it? What’s so good about getting angry and losing your health? “

“Master Lu, you have a lot of people, please forgive me this once, right?”

“Aiya, tonight’s moonlight is really good …” Zuo Shaoqing secretly reached out his hand to hold Lu Zheng’s hand. Seeing that Lu Zheng didn’t object, he happily hummed a little tune.

When they arrived outside the door of the mansion, Zuo Shaoqing was lifted up by the horse with his head down. Blood rushed to his brain and his face turned red immediately.

“Master Lu…” Lu Zheng… “Quickly put me down …” So many people were watching. How shameful was this?

Lu Zheng did not budge. He carried him through the lobby and headed towards his own Duke Zhen Residence. The servants thought that Master Lu could not wait any longer and lowered their heads to hold in their laughter.

After kicking open the door, Lu Zheng carried Zuo Shaoqing into the bathroom. With one hand, he threw Zuo Shaoqing into the bathroom and ordered in a deep voice, “Wash him before coming out!”

Zuo Shaoqing choked on the water, hit his chest and started coughing. Then he wiped off the water droplets on his face and glared at Lu Zheng’s leaving figure.

He lifted his arm to smell it and sure enough, there was a pungent smell of powdered fat mixed with the smell of alcohol. No wonder Lu Zheng’s expression was even worse than before.

Sigh, he deserved to die! Zuo Shaoqing felt that this was probably the most wrong decision he had made since his rebirth.

After taking off his wet clothes, Zuo Shaoqing sank into the water. His originally inconspicuous intoxication was hit by the hot water, causing him to feel slightly dizzy.

Zuo Shaoqing didn’t dare to go out even after the time it took for an incense stick to burn had passed. His skin and flesh had all turned red before he got out of the water.

Zuo Shaoqing walked around in the bathroom twice, clenched his teeth and took off a piece of gauze from the screen before putting it on. Then he tied it with a thin ribbon, rubbed his face and walked out with a smile.

Under the flickering candle light, Lu Zheng was leaning against the bed with the book draped over his shoulders. His downcast eyes made it hard to tell if he was angry or not.

Zuo Shaoqing poured a cup of tea and walked over slowly. He placed the cup next to Lu Zheng’s mouth to please him, “Master, are you thirsty? Have a cup of tea. “

Lu Zheng drank a cup of tea with his hand. From beginning to end, his gaze was fixed on the page, not even sparing him a glance.

Zuo Shaoqing used his inner strength to throw the cup back onto the table. He pulled off the gauze covering his body, wandered around the bed a few times, gritted his teeth and pulled out the book in his hand, smiling as he said, “Master, are you hot? This little one will help you undress! “

Lu Zheng raised his head and swept his gaze over Zuo Shaoqing. A light flashed across his eyes so fast that Zuo Shaoqing almost didn’t notice it.

He wrapped his arm around Zuo Shaoqing’s waist and brought him to the bed. He whispered with a profound look in his eyes, “It seems like I have learned a lot from the brothels. I think I have enjoyed it a lot, right?”

Zuo Shaoqing did not expect that not only did he not succeed in luring his, he even got the opposite effect. He lay on Lu Zheng’s chest and rubbed it, “Don’t wrongly accuse me, I didn’t even glance at you.”

Lu Zheng traced his finger across Ye Zichen’s face and said in a deep voice, “It isn’t enough to make me calm down.”

Hearing that there was a door, Zuo Shaoqing raised his head and stared at him with a burning gaze, “Then what do we do?”

Lu Zheng whispered something in his ear, and his eyes scanned Zuo Shaoqing’s body inch by inch through the gauze.

Zuo Shaoqing’s face turned red. After a battle between Heaven and Earth, it didn’t matter if he was more active or not. Changing his posture didn’t matter, it didn’t matter if he shouted loudly, it wasn’t like … This wasn’t the first time!
