Chapter 22 Cheng Yishou is in danger

After what happened yesterday, Cheng Yishou finally saw Zhou Quan clearly.

He heard early in the morning that his servant Zhou Quan came to the house with the maid he threw yesterday to confess and apologize, saying that all this was just the maid's words and had nothing to do with him.

How could Cheng Yishou believe him now? He only sent someone to see Zhou Quan, saying that he was angry yesterday and felt unwell, so he was embarrassed.

In fact, Cheng Yishou didn't want to see Zhou Quan.

Now when I think of him, I think of the disgusting things Zhou Quan did to herself.

Yesterday, he took himself to that kind of fireworks place, and he didn't know when he arranged for the maid to be beside him. In addition to monitoring himself, only he Zhouquan knew what other more dirty things he was going to do.

Cheng Yishou didn't dare to think about it, he just pinched his eyebrows with a headache. The most important thing at the moment was to distance himself from this Zhou Quan.

The remaining days were peaceful, and Cheng Jin spent a rare and innocent time in the house.

Now I open my eyes every day in the house, there is no fear of losing my life, and there is no intrigue, except for the occasional quarrel with Cheng Sheng, but when it comes to the Duan family's girl Duan Yan, Cheng Sheng seems to be mute. , a person who is so sharp-tongued and refuses to give in is speechless.

Cheng Jin couldn't help but snicker beside him.

[I didn’t expect that the general who was victorious in foreign battles was still a pure love warrior. 】

[However, after spending the past few days together, I think Miss Duan is quite interesting to me. 】

Although Cheng Sheng didn't understand what "pure love warrior" meant, hearing Cheng Jin say it was probably a good word. Especially after Cheng Jin said that "Miss Duan" was interested in him in North China, Cheng Sheng's heart The little deer banged and banged, but still recalled with unconfidence in his heart.

Miss Duan might be interested in him?
Did she see that she was interested in him?
Have you been acting too reserved?What if Miss Duan has random thoughts?
Tomorrow I happen to ask Miss Duan to go boating and enjoy the lake, so why not just talk to Miss Duan again and secretly express my feelings.

Of course, Cheng Jin didn't know that Cheng Sheng in front of him had already fantasized about what excuse he would use to meet Duan Yan next time, so he just stared at the teacup in front of him in a daze.

This scene now has never been seen in the book. I wonder if it is because of her that the current plot has changed. But even though it seems to be calm now, I don't know what kind of turmoil it will be in such an era.

But no matter what, Cheng Jin is determined to preserve the Cheng family.

Not long after Cheng Sheng left, he heard a commotion from the servants in the mansion.

Cheng Jin asked Cuizhu to go out and inquire about it. When he came back, he saw Cuizhu with a pale face.

Seeing that something was wrong, Cheng Jin quickly asked Cuizhu what was wrong.

Cuizhu was nervously thinking about his words:

"Now it's time for the master to return home from the court, but he met Mr. Zhou on the road. He insisted on inviting our master to his house for tea."

"The master had a grudge against him because of what happened a few days ago, so how could he be willing to do so? Mr. Zhou took the master to the house with a strong attitude. At this moment, I haven't heard that the master has any intention of returning home. I can only follow him. Wang Dong, who went to court with me, is back with a message."

Cheng Jin listened to all this in disbelief. This Zhou Quan was already a loser. His father's words about breaking up with him were so clear. His position was smaller than his father's, so how could he dare to do such a thing again.

If it weren't for Cheng Yishou's straightforward temperament, he would have read the full book in the court and exposed all the dirty things he had done.

To be hated by Zhou Quan, he must have colluded with other people in the court who disliked Cheng Yishou and planned this matter together.Cheng Jin figured it all out and immediately persuaded himself to calm down.

Now I know that of all the people in the world, she is the only one, and she is the only one who can save Cheng Yishou.

Cheng Jin immediately stood up and asked Cuizhu to follow him to see Zhao Shulan. Now that the big fuss about his father being forced to go to the house to drink tea must have reached Zhao Shulan's ears.

When they arrived at Zhao Shulan's courtyard, there was a lot of crying as expected. Zhao Shulan sat in the room with a headache and rubbed her forehead. The expression on her face was also miserable, and the corners of her eyes were slightly red. She might have cried.

Cheng Jin looked at the maids and servants around him and shouted loudly, "Father just went to Mr. Zhou's house to drink tea. Maybe the two of them had a good chat and my father came back in the evening. How could he put on such an expression?"

Cheng Jin had a calm expression on his face and seemed not to be affected by this incident at all.

Cheng Jin stepped forward and patted Zhao Shulan on the back, comforting him: "Father must be fine."

Zhao Shulan nodded.

Cheng Jin looked at the servants gathered in the courtyard again, "What are you still doing here? Do whatever you have to do. If my father comes back and sees you lazing around while he is away, he will definitely be angry with you."

The servants in the mansion left Zhao Shulan's yard one after another.

When Zhao Shulan saw that everyone was gone, she dared to show a worried look, "You know, Mr. Zhou and your father are now enemies. Your father was invited to drink tea this time, maybe..."

Zhao Shulan couldn't talk any more.

"No, my father is an important minister in the court. He wouldn't dare to do Zhou Quan."

"I will now ask your brother to go to Zhou Quan's mansion to invite your father back. Your brother is a deputy general in the army, so nothing will happen to him." Zhao Shulan felt much more at ease seeing Cheng Jin by her side, so she I told Cheng Jin what I just did.

Cheng Jin nodded, "Only our family knew about Zhou Quan that day, and it was not spread outside. Now there is no talk about the discord between our two families outside. It's OK to let my brother go, but it can't be too public."

Cheng Jin's guess was indeed correct. Something happened over there. Cheng Sheng had already put on his armor and weapons and came to see Zhao Shulan and was ready to go out.

With an angry look on his face, he knelt down and worshiped Zhao Shulan: "Mother, sister, I will definitely bring father back today."

Cheng Jin stepped forward and snatched his sword into his hand.

"What are you wearing this for? As a deputy general, you wear armor in the capital and go to Zhou Quan's mansion with an ice blade in your hand."

"Those who know say that you are filial and nervous about your father. What you don't know adds to the incident of your day and tells the emperor that you can't get rid of the charge of treason even if you want to. When the time comes, you will be unable to defend yourself."

"Even if my father is rescued by you today, I'm afraid that all of us in the Cheng family will have to die together. We might just follow the wishes of those traitors."

Cheng Sheng had never seen Cheng Jin like this before, and was stunned for a moment.

Cheng Jin didn't know whether she was anxious about Cheng Yishou's matter or angry because of Cheng Sheng's reckless matter. Her eyes were red and full of cruelty.

Cheng Sheng was frightened by Cheng Jin, and even Zhao Shulan didn't know what to say to warn him.
