Chapter 5
"Siyi County?" Zhou Hui asked uncertainly.

Zhou Shu nodded, "Well, I asked His Majesty for an order to go."

"Ah Ci you..."

These words really shocked Zhou Hui.

He raised his voice suddenly, and halfway through speaking, he remembered that he was still outside at this time, suppressed the words on his lips, looked left and right, and angrily reprimanded in a low voice: "It's just nonsense!"

Understanding why he reacted so violently, Zhou Shu squeezed his hand tightly and emphasized.

"Brother, I have my own plan to go to Siyi County to serve this time, besides, His Majesty has ordered me to be the county magistrate of Siyi County."

Her voice was not loud, but it was clearly heard by the people around her.

Only then did Zhou Hui notice the imperial decree in her hand, and he was filled with worry, which finally turned into a helpless sigh.

"It's cold outside, go in first."

After entering the study room, there were no outsiders, Zhou Hui couldn't wait to take the imperial decree, and began to read it carefully.

Zhou Shujing sat aside, waiting for his next series of questioning.

After about a stick of incense, Zhou Hui put down the decree with a heavy face, lowered his voice and said, "Aci, why are you doing this?"

Zhou Shu, with a long character, has been affectionately called Aci by the Zhou family.

Hearing his brother's earnest questioning, Zhou Shu's heartstrings were touched.

There were some tears in the clear eyes, and the eyes looking at Zhou Hui were extremely firm.

"Brother, I have made up my mind."

Even if the road ahead is bumpy and she falls into the endless hell, she will never recover, she has no complaints or regrets.

There was no room for change in this matter, Zhou Hui could only sigh repeatedly.

Although he spoke against it, his heart was filled with distress.

"I know your purpose and plan, but Xiangzhou is too remote. When will you be able to return to the capital after this trip? You are not in good health and cannot withstand all kinds of troubles."

But staying in the capital, with the Yang family suppressing her, she will never think about the day when she will become famous.

Not to mention, she has to reverse the case for the Ling family.

"At most one year, I will come back."

She swears, and looks confident.

Although Zhou Hui was helpless, he also compromised.

"Since you have said so, then brother will believe you, even if it is a mountain of swords and seas of fire, brother will accompany you."

After finishing speaking, the subject suddenly changed.

"So, you came back so late because His Majesty's decree was delayed?"

Zhou Shu shook his head, "No."

"Why is that?"

Zhou Hui is a temperament that breaks the casserole and asks the end.

If you don't tell him, he will definitely go to Qiu Min to ask after leaving the study.

Qiumin defending her would definitely exaggerate and stir up conflicts between him and Wen Yuting.

Now that she is about to take office, she doesn't want to cause any more trouble.

So he said: "On the way back, Young Master Wen came with his horse and accidentally disturbed my carriage, which almost knocked over. Fortunately..."

Before he finished speaking, he interrupted hastily.

"Then are you injured?"

That dude Wen Yuting is simply too deceptive.

If he is not present, otherwise he must look good.

"Ah-"

In the imperial study room, Wen Yuting rubbed his itchy nose and said to himself, "Who is thinking about me?"

Emperor Xuan, who was sitting in the main seat, heard his words, sneered, and spoke angrily.

"I don't think someone is thinking about you, but scolding you bastard."

As he spoke, he pointed at him with the finger holding the memorial.

The tone is quite doting.

Wen Yuting was out of shape, and sat lazily in the chair, not annoyed when Emperor Xuan scolded him, but instead smiled and talked nonsense.

"Young master, I am suave, graceful, handsome and unrestrained, from the elderly to children, men, women, old and young, everyone is fascinated by me. It is normal for some people to think about me."

Wen Yuting is the only one who dares to call himself "Master" in front of Emperor Xuan.

There was a trace of displeasure in Emperor Xuan's eyes, but he hid it very well.

The corner of his mouth curled up coldly, "What about the number one scholar? Can he also fall in love with you?"

These words were obviously referring to the fact that he rode his horse in the street and almost knocked over Zhou Shu's carriage.

If it were someone else, they would definitely be kneeling down and begging for mercy at this moment.

But Wen Yuting's attitude was idle, as if he didn't understand the meaning of his words at all.

He said nonchalantly: "Zhuangyuan Lang is full of propriety, righteousness and shame, I'm afraid he won't be able to do such a rebellious thing like liking my young master."

After the words fell, there was a silence in the imperial study room.

Emperor Xuan's face was very gloomy, and Wei Yi, who was serving at the side, observed his expression carefully, complaining endlessly in his heart.

My little lord, please don't speak such wild words again.

however……

"Your Majesty, I heard that Zhuangyuan Lang pissed that old man Yang Tingli in public, is this serious?"

"..."

How can it be so taboo to call the ministers of the DPRK and China by their first names?
This little Marquis Wen is simply helpless.

Wei Yi sweated deeply for him.

Just when he thought that Emperor Xuan would punish Wen Yuting for his crime of disrespect.

The person in the main seat suddenly laughed.

"You bastard, you are becoming more and more uneducated."

But isn't this what he acquiesced to?
The orphan of the Wen family is notoriously a dandy, a rotten wall that cannot be supported.

In this way, those soldiers who swear to follow the Wen family will be disappointed and will not have expectations of him.

A gleam flashed in Wen Yuting's eyes, but his face became more and more unruly.

"That old man has always been old-fashioned, and he speaks out of courtesy, righteousness and shame, and it makes my head hurt to hear that."

"This Zhuangyuan Lang is a wonderful person, but his body is too weak, and he can be blown away by a gust of wind."

As he spoke, he nodded his forehead with his finger.

Full of profligacy.

Emperor Xuan was displeased in his heart, but it didn't show on his face.

The words of the lesson are not too light or too heavy.

"Since you know that Zhuangyuan Lang is weak, you shouldn't ride a horse in the street and almost knock over his carriage. If this gets to the ears of the people at Yushitai, I will hand it over to you like a snowflake. I will protect you." Still not guaranteed?"

"If Your Majesty finds it embarrassing, then hand me over to those people at Yushitai."

He was nonchalant.

Emperor Xuan didn't really want to question his guilt.

Sighing: "You, you, it's because I dote on you that I dare to be so unscrupulous."

Pet him?

He thinks it's almost as good as killing him.

Wen Yuting sneered in his heart.

Just as he almost knocked over Zhou Shu's carriage with his front foot, someone came to him with his back foot.

It can be seen that his every move on weekdays is under surveillance.

As for who sent someone to monitor him, the answer is self-evident.

"Your Majesty, you are really well-informed about this news, and you know it so soon."

An unintentional remark set off alarm bells in Emperor Xuan's heart.

Just as I was about to test if he knew something, I heard him continue: "Which slave is talking too much? If I let my young master know, I will definitely pull out his tongue."

The tone is fierce.

But it also dispelled Emperor Xuan's suspicion.

"What are you doing with those slaves? You are riding a horse in the street, with so many eyes staring at you, and the number one scholar recognized your identity again, so naturally someone will sue you."

"It was you who almost killed my minister." The tone was slightly regretful.

But Wen Yuting knew that what he said was just for himself.

Zhou Shu was really going to die that day, and he didn't have much regret.

It's just a courtier, without this one, there will be another one.

Nothing is more important than his throne.

Even if it is his own son, once his bottom line is touched, he will never show mercy.

Over the years, he has thoroughly seen the true face of Emperor Xuan.

"Then I will choose a day to go to the Zhou Mansion to plead guilty, kneel in front of Zhou Shu's door, and beg him to forgive me. If he doesn't forgive me, I won't be able to kneel forever."
