FULL NOVELXO Chapter 213 - Destiny
Zuo Shaoqing laid on the bed lazily.
Closing his eyes, Zuo Shaoqing yawned and asked while he was still conscious, “Are we going to the navy camp tomorrow?”
“Yes, we'll go again in the afternoon.” Lu Zheng received the news in advance and knew that the imperial edict would arrive tomorrow, thus he delayed it for half a day.
“Wang Family is already investigating the background of this little thing. It seems that he found quite a few things.”
While Zuo Shaoqing was still in a daze, he heard Lu Zheng's words that immediately brought his consciousness back into the cage. He turned around and raised his eyebrows as he asked, “What did you find out?” contemporary romance
“Why did Wang Zhenhai's official wife get killed?”
“Hmph hmph, that would still be half of Wang Zhenhai's responsibility. If not for his indulgence, how could a concubine behave wantonly in the Wang Family?”
“Yeah, that's why he went to the seaside alone last night. The sea breeze blew all night long.”
Zuo Shaoqing pouted, “He still has a conscience, but it's too late.”
It was also because Lu Zheng had bumped into that soulless man last night that he got people to pay attention to the movements of the Wang Family. However, like Zuo Shaoqing said, it was indeed too late.
In fact, the two of them had the ability to hide the majority of the evidence, making it so that Wang Family could not find out what happened that year, so that Zuo Xiaolang would not be exposed.
However, the two of them did not do so. There was no need to hide Lil Thing's identity and the biggest choice in this matter was in Zuo Xiaolang's hands. This was a test that he and Zuo Shaoqing gave Lil Thing.
Although they all said that they wouldn't return the child, the Wu Steel Manor wouldn't help others raise the child for free. If Zuo Xiaolang wanted to stay, he had to sever all relations with Wang Family, even if he was only a three year old child. freewebn(o)vel
Since he didn't have time to eat last night, Zuo Shaoqing rubbed his flat belly and got up from the bed with difficulty. The moment he put on the clothes, he saw Wu Tie come in with steaming hot porridge.
“It's time to get up. Quickly wash up and come drink some porridge.”
Zuo Shaoqing was already used to this kind of considerate action of his. Moreover, he had to admit that Lu Zheng's meticulous and meticulous actions made him feel a lot better.
He rinsed his mouth as fast as he could, sat down on the cushioned chair, took the spoon from Lu Zheng and started eating.
“Have you eaten?” Zuo Shaoqing raised his head and asked him.
“Yes, the messenger sent by the imperial government has arrived. He is currently at prefectural attendent. Let's go after breakfast.”
Zuo Shaoqing looked at the sky outside, “Isn't it almost noon? When did you arrive? “
Lu Zheng didn't answer him, he just gave him some side dishes.
“Has the Crane City been decided?”
“I don't know. The emperor's decree hasn't been read out yet. We'll talk about it after we get there.”
“Hmm? What does this have to do with us? ” Zuo Shaoqing had already planned to find a reason to hide today. Now that Jiung Hengzhou was wearing the title of a messenger, he didn't want to go and praise him.
Lu Zheng wiped the water droplets on Zuo Shaoqing's mouth and softly stared at him. He explained, “This time, a group of pirates with over a thousand people was exterminated. You, as a doctor, must have your own rewards.”
Hearing that there was a reward, Zuo Shaoqing's eyes immediately lit up. However, he quickly calmed down, “With that person's petty character, I'm afraid he won't be able to get anything good.”
He didn't forget that Lu Zheng had rendered so many merits. The Emperor had only casually rewarded the land and property, and had even used an imperial edict to bestow marriage on Lu Zheng. It was really a bit too much of a scam.
After he slowly finished his meal, the two rode their horses to prefectural attendent. At this time, many spectators had already gathered outside the yamen, as well as small officials and officials who had come upon hearing the news.
When Lu Zheng and Zuo Shaoqing approached, immediately, some people recognized them. In an instant, the entire street was blocked by people. The citizens kneeled down spontaneously, and some of them even tried to squeeze through the guards to give them things.
Lu Zheng's fame had spread throughout the entire Great Yang when he defeated Beidi. This man had always been a god-like existence in the eyes of the commoners.
Especially after he exterminated so many pirates this time and saved a few hundred people. When the citizens of Crane City mentioned this general who had been protecting the Great Yang, they kowtowed in respect.
In the past few days, there would always be a pile of gifts outside the Cao Sect gate, all of them small things like vegetables and eggs.
Only at this moment did Zuo Shaoqing silently sigh. What an amazing man he had married.
However, that passion and respect were only for Lu Zheng. When Zuo Shaoqing's identity was first spread out, he would always be pointed out by others when he went out. He might even be able to throw rotten eggs.
He heard a lot of people whispering behind his back, calling him a shameless fox who specifically seduced men and so on. It was as if Lu Zheng marrying him was completely sullying his own reputation.
Although he had heard many of these words in the capital, and although he did not care too much about these rumors, he could not avoid the tension in his heart.
However, he had been secretly slandered, and the people who had hurt Zuo Shaoqing taught him a lesson. After that, some people started to advertise Zuo Shaoqing's achievements in the extermination of pirates in Crane City.
Those exaggerated rumors made Zuo Shaoqing into a literary star specially sent down by the heavens to assist Duke Zhen.
What? You don't believe me? Didn't you see that when Master Lu was in danger at sea, Lord Zuo summoned his men to rescue him? If not for their mutual understanding, how would he know that something had happened to Master Lu?
The commoners believed in the saying of ghosts and gods. Zuo Shaoqing gradually got rid of his negative image. Plus, every time he went out with Lu Zheng, he would not hide their intimate behavior and gradually let the commoners accept their relationship.
The crowd watched the two of them ride on the same horse. They were tall and straight and had a handsome face. There was an indescribable harmony between them.
Perhaps it was because they had seen too much, but they no longer felt disgusted with two men flaunting their skills. With the help of rumors, they slowly accepted the saying “destiny is destined”.
