The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 75 The subordinate is reckless

According to Daqi's practice, all civil and military officials are not required to be on duty before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, but Li Ling can't be idle. The patrol department is not only in charge of the city protection in Beijing, but also the security in Beijing.

Therefore, even during the Chinese New Year, you must not relax.

This day, after breakfast, Li Ling and Jing Shu were busy going to the front hall to be a director, and the other was going out to work in the yamen.

As soon as Li Ling left the second gate, he saw the door attendant hurried in from the outside. Li Ling saw that he was holding a greeting card in his hand, and asked, "Who came to visit so early?"

The door attendant replied: "It's Mr. Liu Yunzhi Liu from the official school. Zhenghou is outside the door and said he wants to see the second lady."

Li Ling received the invitation, and seeing that it was indeed Liu Yunzhi from Jiangnan, his expression darkened, and he said displeasedly: "There is no need to go to the inner courtyard to tell Madam, I will meet this person right now."

The door attendant agreed, then bowed back to the door, Li Ling strode out the door, and saw a young man standing outside the door.

"Is your Excellency Mr. Liu?" Li Ling asked while standing under the porch.

Liu Yunzhi raised her eyes when she heard the words, and saw that the other party was imposing and wearing a military officer's official uniform of the second rank, so she guessed that this person was the heir of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, Li Ling, the commander of the patrol department that Cai Lun had mentioned to him up.

With a calm complexion, he cupped his hands and said, "I am Liu Yunzhi. A few days ago, Liu was in distress. Thanks to Mrs. Shen's generous rescue, I came to the house today to express my thanks."

Li Ling didn't return the salute, but said with a cold face: "My wife is always kind. Don't say that Mr. Liu is a teacher in the official school of his sister and brother-in-law. Even if he has nothing to do with him, she will help him. Mr. Liu doesn't need to worry about trivial matters. that is."

The implication is that if any cat or dog is in trouble, Jing Shu will help out, and he is just being affectionate.

Liu Yunzhi couldn't understand the meaning of Li Ling's words. He smiled lightly and said, "General Li has been on the battlefield for a long time, and he is used to seeing life and death. Naturally, he doesn't care about such small things. But for me, Mrs. Shen's move is a great kindness to Liu, and Liu has to take it to heart."

He paused, looked at Li Ling and continued: "Ma'am, Liu must not only keep it in his heart, but also remember it in this lifetime."

Hearing him speak like this, Li Lingguang's hands under his sleeves gradually clenched into fists, and he replied in a cold voice: "My wife is busy today, so I don't have time to see you, Mr. Liu, please do it yourself."

After saying that, Li Ling was about to leave in a huff.

Who knows, Liu Yunzhi replied calmly: "No problem, if Mrs. Shen is busy at the moment, Liu can just wait here for a little longer."

"Sir, please go ahead." Although Li Ling was very unhappy, he could stop people from entering the mansion, but he couldn't stop them from standing outside the door.

Annoyed, he threw down such a sentence, got on his horse, and galloped away with Liang Jin.

After walking for a while, Li Ling suddenly stopped again, turned his head to Liang Jin and said, "Go back and tell the door that it is my order, and they are not allowed to send this greeting card from Liu Yunzhi to Madam again, and he will come again in the future." , and are not allowed to send them.”

When Liang Jin was waiting outside the door, he also vaguely heard the conversation between the two, and he said angrily: "This good man surnamed Liu doesn't know the heights of heaven and earth, general, I'm going to beat him up, and then drive him out of the capital." ,how?"

Liang Jinyuan also came from a family of officials and eunuchs for generations, but his grandfather was accidentally involved in the turmoil of seizing the heirloom during Emperor Wu's period when he was an official.

Liang Jin was originally dispatched to a remote place in northern Xinjiang to serve as an army. Afterwards, he made many meritorious service in the army. He was rarely famous and was appreciated by Li Ling. Li Ling's confidant adjutant.

What happened to him as a teenager made Liang Jin a taciturn and meticulous character, never showing a smile on his face.

Hearing his words suddenly, Li Ling frowned slightly, looked at Liang Jin in a daze and asked, "What's wrong with you today?"

Liang Jin quickly cupped his fists and said, "This subordinate is being reckless."

Li Ling snorted coldly and said, "He's just a frivolous person with no power to restrain a chicken, so it's fine to give him a snub, it's not worth it."

This Liu's mind, Li Ling knew at a glance that a man's love for a woman cannot be concealed, and what's more, this Liu's love is still his wife.

In terms of selfishness, Li Ling agreed with what Liang Jin said, and he really wanted to beat him up.But if so, it is really out of style.

After all, people just came to the door to say thank you.

"Subordinate, go back and tell the door attendant." After finishing speaking, Liang Jin turned his horse's head and galloped towards the way he came.

Just now, Li Ling's words "What's wrong with you today?" made Liang Jin's usually calm heart twitch violently, but fortunately, he calmly and forcefully pressed him back.

Liang Jin held the reins tightly, and the steed under his crotch was galloping like lightning. The biting cold wind in the winter morning could not cool the hot sweat that was constantly oozing from his forehead.

Jingshu was so busy in the conference hall that at noon, just as she was about to go back for lunch, the third girl happily ran in from the outside. gone?"

Jing Shu got up, met her and asked, "Who is here? Seeing how excited you are."

The third girl ran to Jing Shu, and Jing Shu took out a handkerchief to wipe her sweat. The third girl said excitedly to her, "Mr. Liu is here. I was just about to go out when I arrived at the gate. Waiting outside."

Jingshu asked: "Why do you still let people wait outside the door? Invite them in quickly."

The third girl said: "I have invited Mr. Liu to the living room." Then, she couldn't help curling her lips and said, "Mr. Liu has been waiting outside the door all morning, and no one came in to pass the message." One sound, I was so angry that I scolded the door attendant, and the person on the door actually said that he came in in the morning to pass the invitation, and that it was the second brother who stopped the greeting card, and said that the second brother told them not to let Mr. Liu in."

After speaking, the third girl couldn't help complaining to Li Ling: "How can the second brother be so rude to Mr. Liu? It's really outrageous. Second sister-in-law, you have to talk about him when you go back."

Li Ling did too much.

Jing Shu thought to herself, but she still couldn't help making up for Li Ling: "Maybe there is some misunderstanding here."

Saying that, she pulled the third girl and walked out: "Let's go, since Mr. Liu came to the door, let's go and see him."

Liu Yunzhi spent the whole morning drinking the northwest wind outside Zhen Guogong's mansion, and was invited by the third girl into the living room to drink two cups of hot tea before she felt warm.

Jingshu took the third girl into the living room, met Liu Yunzhi, she saluted and said: "I don't know if Mr. Liu came to visit, but I am far away from welcoming you, please forgive me."

Liu Yunzhi got up and replied: "Liu made an abrupt visit, I hope Madam will not be offended."

The few people sat down, and Liu Yunzhi said: "A few days ago, Liu was injured by the Diao Nu of Jianjun Wangfu, thank you Madam and Third Miss for their righteous rescue."

Speaking of this, the third girl said angrily: "This is a slave who is bullying others. It is really hateful. The slaves commit crimes outside, and it is also because the master is not strict with them. Those civil servants who are about to remonstrate at every turn have become dumb now. This is the case with the Prince's Mansion of Jian County."

Seeing the indignation of the third girl, Jing Shu smiled at Liu Yunzhi and said, "Young aunt's outspokenness made Mr. laugh."

Liu Yunzhi laughed, and he said to the third girl heartily: "Jinyan has a clear distinction between likes and dislikes, which is similar to being a teacher."

The third girl didn't feel shy when she heard the teacher praise her, and directly took the opportunity to say: "Sir, why don't you give me a book of your poems as a reward."

Liu Yunzhi heard the words and replied: "You must write a poem that can satisfy the teacher before you can give it to me."

Hearing this, the third girl immediately languished, Jing Shu looked at her and said with a smile: "You should learn from the master, if you learn well, the master will naturally give it to you."

Liu Yunzhi nodded, then took out a book from her sleeve pocket, and said to Jingshu: "Madam Liu is very grateful for your help. This is Liu's travel notes written by Liu's travels over the years, and I gave it to Madam to translate. Watch it to relieve boredom, and I hope Madam will not be disgusted with it."

"The concubine's body is nothing more than a little effort, sir don't need to worry about it." As she spoke, Jing Shu took the book that Liu Yunzhi brought over, flipped through it in her hand, and said in surprise, "Mr. has traveled to so many places."

Liu Yunzhi replied: "Liu has no official status and is a light-hearted person. He is a leisurely person. When he has nothing to do, he likes to look around."

This book not only records the style and appearance of Daqi, but also records the appearance and customs of the countries around Daqi in detail.

Jingshu closed the book, handed it to Liu Yunzhi again, and replied: "This book is the result of my husband's painstaking efforts, and I can't accept it."

Liu Yunzhi didn't reach out to pick it up, but said with a smile: "A little heart is not enough to show respect, Madam, let's keep it, and take it as Liu's thank you for saving Madam."

Since Liu Yunzhi said so, Jing Shu couldn't refuse anymore, she accepted the travel note, and replied: "So, the concubine will accept it, thank you sir."
