Chapter 94 Confession

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhou Huaishan flopped down on his back.

He folded his arms, closed his eyes and snorted coldly, "I won't write, whoever wants to write can write!"

Zhou Ping looked at Zhou Huaishan dumbfounded.

"Second uncle, don't you like reading and writing the most?"

Zhou Huaishan.

He closed his eyes and said with a brave expression, "From now on, I don't like it anymore!"

Zhou Ping

Look at Zhou Qing and Zhou Huaishan, their faces are filled with shocking question marks.

Can adults be so willful?

Zhou Qing grabbed Zhou Huaishan angrily and said, "If you don't write, how will we make money?"

Zhou Huaishan snorted: "Don't we already have more than 4,000 and nearly 5,000 taels in savings at home?"

"That little money is enough. From now on, if you go to Kyoto to take the exam, if you pass the Jinshi exam and enter the Hanlin Academy, you won't be allowed to buy a house in Kyoto!"

Zhou Huaishan sat up in excitement and pointed at himself, "Me? Jinshi? Don't you know who I am?"

Zhou Qing stared at him, "If you fail the Jinshi exam and become a high official, aren't you afraid of Zhou Huaihai and Zhou Yuan's revenge on you?"

Zhou Huaishan snorted and smiled, "Zhou Huaihai has been in jail a long time ago!"

"It's not a death sentence for him to go to prison. As long as Zhou Yuan is here, Zhou Huaihai can come out at any time. If he fails to harm you this time, when he is released from prison, given his temperament, he will not torture you to death!"

Zhou Huaishan.

I have to say that Zhou Qing's words scared him.

More importantly.

There was really nothing fun in the countryside. He wanted to live in the city.

Preferably Kyoto!

I really miss the old days, I really want to wander!

Seeing Zhou Huaishan's expression change, Zhou Qing continued: "Study hard, make more money, and save your life at critical times."

Zhou Huaishan pursed his lips, let out a long sigh with a bitter look on his face, and reluctantly took the red paper that Zhou Ping had placed on the kang onto the kang table.

"Then write."

When Zhou Ping listened to Zhou Qing's words just now, a flash of sudden determination flashed across his five-year-old face, and he squeezed tightly with his little fist.

Save your life!

He turned around and ran out.

Zhou Qing took the ink and pen for Zhou Huaishan.

Zhou Huaishan started writing.

After writing a few words, he suddenly turned to look at Zhou Qing, "That's wrong."

"What's wrong?"

"When we first came here, you said you supported me! You said letting me copy books was just a temporary measure."

Zhou Qing

Zhou Huaishan let out a long sigh full of resentment, like a little daughter-in-law who was bullied.

"My daughter's mouth is a liar! A woman's words are indeed untrustworthy!"

Zhou Qing

As he finished speaking, Zhou Huaishan suddenly put down the pen in his hand and turned to stare at Zhou Qing, with a strange light floating in his eyes.

"what happened again?"

"Daughter, if we want to live a good life, we don't have to go through me. You can do it too."

A fly rubbed his hands, and Zhou Huaishan leaned towards Zhou Qing.

"Daughter, as long as you marry into a good family, that family is more powerful than Zhou Yuan, all our problems will be solved."

Zhou Qing suddenly rolled his eyes.

"Me? Marrying into a family that is more powerful than Zhou Yuan? Not to mention that we don't know such a person at all. Even if we do, what do people see in me? Am I ugly and poor?"

Zhou Huaishan looked at Zhou Qing with wide eyes.

His eyes swept around her face.

The eyes are big, the eyelashes are very long, the pear dimples are very cute, and the bridge of the nose is very straight.

Not ugly!

But black!

One black thing destroys everything!

With this look, there is indeed no chance for a powerful person to fall in love with her and marry her home as his wife.

The powerful are not blind!

Kyoto is filled with beauty and beauty!

If you don't become a wife, you become a concubine

Fuck your grandma’s legs!

The powerful people agree but he doesn’t agree yet!

With a feeble sigh, Zhou Huaishan resignedly picked up the pen again.

In this room, Zhou Huaishan sadly wrote joyful Spring Festival couplets.

Over there, Zhou Ping went back to his room and made himself a day's plan.

He got up at the beginning of the month, jogged for half an hour in the morning, walked on horseback for half an hour, practiced the boxing that Shen Li taught him for half an hour, and practiced the small bow that Shen Li made for him for half an hour.

He began to read and write at this time.

Have lunch at noon.

Read and write when you are not in time.

After dinner, I ran for half an hour at night, walked for half an hour, boxed for half an hour, and practiced bow and arrow for half an hour.

Review the day's homework for half an hour.

After finishing the schedule, Zhou Ping posted it on his desk and silently raised three fingers to his ear with a pious look.

"If I, Zhou Ping, can't do it, my senior brother will never be able to find a wife in his life!"

Shen Li, who was interrogating prisoners far away in Kyoto, sneezed three times in a row.

Qing'er misses me again.

The whip in his hand struck the prisoner across from him fiercely, "I'm going to attack you or not!"

After finishing this matter, I have to rush back to Qingyang Village.

I can't kill you for delaying my important business!

prisoner

Is this presiding judge crazy?

Didn’t I just recruit someone?

Did he see through that I was recruiting half-truths?

"I recruit, I recruit. Part of Zhou Yuan's money was given by Duan Kangbo, but this is only a small part. Most of it was obtained from the housekeeper named Yu Quan of the Zhenguo Duke's Mansion."

A group of followers were behind Shen Li.

Sure enough, the boss is still awesome!

As soon as he got started, this guy immediately revealed the basic information.

Shen Li

wipe!

Those things you just confessed to were all just playing tricks on me!

Let you waste my time!

Snapped!

The whip was struck again.

prisoner

I've already recruited him, why do I still need to fight?

This presiding judge is too perverted. He slaps people on the crotch!

"It's gone, it's gone, it's really gone, that's all I know."

Shen Li put away the whip in his hand, turned around and ordered: "Make a confession."

A follower quickly came forward and wrote down a confession. Taking the confession, Shen Li went straight to the palace.

Even a member of the Jingwei Camp in Zhou Yuan could get a huge amount of silver from the Zhen Guo Gong Mansion. The Zhen Guo Gong's network must be too big.

Royal study room.

Auspicious beasts disappear, and sandalwood curls up.

The emperor sat in front of the desk with a tired look on his face, rubbing his eyebrows with his right hand.

There are seven or eight open memorials scattered on the table, all from Zhou Yuan and Duan Kangbo's house.

"What do you think about this matter?"

Shen Li wore a dark black brocade robe with dark patterns and stood respectfully in front of the desk.

The soft candlelight in the royal study reflected his sharp black eyes, making his whole body look even more erect and elegant.

"Zhou Yuan is just a pawn used by Duke Zhen to control the Jingwei camp. What exactly Duke Zhen has planned will be revealed once he captures Zhou Yuan."

The emperor rubbed his brow with his hand, but did not raise his eyes to look at Shen Li.

Shen Li continued: "But Zhou Yuan has just come to Kyoto, and it is impossible to gain the absolute trust of the Duke of Zhen when he first comes here. Therefore, arresting Zhou Yuan at this time is tantamount to alerting the enemy."

A smile emerged from the corner of the emperor's mouth.

"how do you feel?"

"Keeping Zhou Yuan, maybe he is just insignificant to Duke Zhen Guo.

But he is very important to Duan Kangbo Mansion.

Duan Kangbo has always been a die-hard follower of Zhen Guogong.

Zhou Huaihai's bribery of the former magistrate of Xuanfu caused an uproar among private students.

If Zhou Yuan were allowed to take Zhou Huaihai out of prison at this time, I'm afraid the resentment would become even more intense. "

The emperor slowly lowered his hand rubbing his brow and raised his eyes to look at Shen Li.

There was a light of kindness and trust in his tired eyes.

"Then go for it and feel free to do it."

Shen Li clasped his fists and promised to take the order.
