Be a master through ancient times

The life in Zhangzhou Mansion is peaceful, and everything is going on in an orderly manner.The county lord's mansion in the capital city was in a mess some time ago.

The reason has to start after Ma Shun and others returned to Beijing.

After they heard that Zhong Liyu had been picked up in Yuanshan County that day, they only stayed for a few days before rushing to the capital.It stands to reason that after they usually finish their errands, they will always write in advance to ask for credit.But this time things went wrong, and they didn't dare to mention a word.

If they wrote back to tell the master that the matter was messed up this time, the master would be furious. At that time, they couldn't explain it aside, and they would easily be taken advantage of by villains and fan the flames by taking the opportunity.

When Ma Shun and the others returned to the capital, Zhong Liqing came to the other courtyard before their buttocks were hot.When Ma Shun heard the voice of the people outside, his heart tightened, and he hurried out.

"My subordinates will see my aunt." Ma Shun knelt on one knee, cupped his fists and saluted.

"Are you back? Where's the young master?" Zhong Liqing asked warmly with a smile on his face.

"This..." Ma Shun was a little nervous, Zhong Liqing came so suddenly, he had already forgotten all the manuscripts he had typed.

Seeing his hesitation, Zhong Liqing felt a little unhappy, and frowned slightly: "What's the matter, tell me."

"Uncle, young master... young master, he..."

Zhong Liqing thought for a while, then snorted lightly, and said, "Is it because that old guy won't let you take the young master over?"

"Not at all..."

"What the hell is going on?" Zhong Liqing finally realized that something was wrong, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and his hawk-like eyes seemed to be fixed on Ma Shun.

"Uncle, no, master!" Ma Shun was taken aback by him, his body became tense, and he changed his words unconsciously, "It's not Xu...it's not that old guy who refuses to let it go, it's...it's the young master who has been arrested. The lady's people picked it up!"

"What did you say?" Zhong Liqing stood up abruptly, and looked at him with a shocked expression, apparently this answer was beyond his expectation.

"Master, I dare not lie. The young master was taken away by Miss's people. That day..." Ma Shun tremblingly told what happened in those few days. At the end, he added, "According to those People's behavior, the subordinates guess, it should be Zhao Zhong's group."

"Zhao Zhong?" Zhong Liqing bowed his head and said silently, the image of this person appeared in his mind, "Are you sure it's them?"

"Although my subordinates don't dare to say it, they are most likely to be them. Besides them, who else would dare to act so recklessly!" Ma Shun secretly took some eye drops, he just wanted to draw Zhong Liqing's attention away from him.Don't look at their aunt who looks like a gentle and affectionate scholar, giving people a harmless feeling, but in fact his methods are extremely cruel, and he really answered the saying "A person should not be judged by his appearance" .

Zhong Liqing looked at Ma Shun's frightened but very determined expression on his face, and guessed that he would not dare to lie.However, if what he said was true, how did Ruyi know that he was going to send someone to fetch Yu'er?Could it be that - thinking that there might be a traitor, Zhong Liqing's expression became a bit darker.

"Don't go back to the house for now, just follow my orders." After Zhong Liqing stared at Ma Shun for a long time, he finally opened his mouth. After speaking, he walked out.

"Yes!" Ma Shun didn't know why Zhong Liqing looked at him for so long, after watching Zhong Liqing's back leave, his body suddenly relaxed and he sighed softly.When he got up from the ground, he felt the coolness on his back. When he touched it again, it turned out that the clothes on his back had already been soaked in cold sweat.

After Zhong Liqing left the other courtyard, she took a carriage back to the county lord's mansion.

"Xiaotao, where's Madam?" Zhong Liqing searched around the yard, but didn't see Su Ruyi, so she casually stopped a girl and asked.

"Uncle, the miss went to Kang County Prince's Mansion with the county lord."

"The Prince's Mansion? What are they doing there?" Zhong Liqing was a little annoyed at hearing her address, but her face was still gentle.

"The servant doesn't know, but the servant heard that the princess of the county seems to be feeling a little uncomfortable today."

After hearing this, Zhong Liqing raised her signature smiling face and thanked, "Thank you, Miss Xiaotao, you can go and do it yourself."

Xiao Tao blushed quietly, and when she left, she couldn't help but look back at Zhong Liqing, thinking that the young master is really good-looking, no wonder the lady doesn't let others take a look at him.Thinking of this, her face turned pale, and after looking around and finding no one was quietly relieved, she quickly left.

Seeing her leave, Zhong Liqing immediately restrained the smile on her face.He came to the study and began to think about how to find out Yu'er's whereabouts from Ruyi.

It was night, and Su Ruyi followed her mother back to the county lord's mansion.Her expression was weary, a listless look.

County Master Jiahui gave her a sideways look: "You refused to marry Cheng'er back then, so what are you doing now with such an appearance?"

Su Ruyi was upset: "Mom, why are you talking about this again!"

"Is that what I want to say? When you saw your cousin today, you almost had jealousy written on your face." County Mistress Jiahui was also a little unhappy. Although she didn't like that Bai family either, she hated her daughter even more. Almost lost her face.Isn't it just a set of ruby ​​jewelry?Thinking back when she was not married, such things would not have caught her eyes at all.

"I'm not jealous of her! That Bai Qingwan is a shabby householder. She used to wear a fur coat for three years. Now that she has gained power, she starts to show off. She can't wait to wear all the jewelry on her body. Mother, don't you?" Seeing her madness, she even asked me if the hairpin on my head is the old style of Haruhi, I am so mad!" Su Ruyi had tears in her eyes, and her pretty face became ferocious due to jealousy.

The head of Jiahui County sighed with hatred for iron and steel: "She has a poor household, so is it worth you to care about her? Mother said earlier that if you didn't make up your mind at the beginning, you must marry my son-in-law. Now you are the concubine. , let her show off in front of you?"

Su Ruyi remained silent, she was blaming her mother a little bit in her heart, since she had already guessed it, why didn't she be tougher and let her marry her cousin, she was a daughter, could she still disobey her parents?

Because she was unhappy, Su Ruyi started to beat and beat as soon as she got back to her room, and then she got angry and slapped the maid who combed her hair a few times with excuses, which made her feel better.

Before she completely disappeared, Zhong Liqing walked in.When Su Ruyi saw him, she immediately became angry again: "Where have you been running all day long? Did you go out to hook up with those foxes again?"

A trace of anger flashed in Zhong Liqing's eyes, and it returned to normal after a while.He walked behind Su Ruyi, and asked all the maids in the room to retreat. After they closed the door, he picked up the comb himself and helped Su Ruyi comb her hair.

"My lady, who made you angry again? Why would my husband leave a stunning beauty like you at home and go out to hook up with those dubious people?" His movements and tone were very gentle, and Su Ruyi passed through Seeing his handsome appearance in the mirror, the anger in his heart finally subsided.

"It's not that bitch Bai Qingwan. Whenever I think of her, I get angry. She just married her cousin and became a concubine, so she looks arrogant. She's just a step-wife, so what's the big deal?" Su Ru commented He became angry again when he didn't talk, and said sarcastically, "Her frivolous appearance is a bit like that bitch Kou Rou... Ah, you hurt me!"

A strand of Su Ruyi's hair was pulled and hurt, she turned around and pushed violently: "What? When I mentioned that bitch, you lost your mind? Are you still thinking about her?"

Zhong Liqing suppressed the anger in her heart, and explained with a forced smile: "Ruyi, why do I still think about her? With you in front of me, I can't think of anyone."

"Hmph," Su Ruyi smiled triumphantly, "You are sensible. But yes, you killed that bitch, so how dare you think about her?"

Zhong Liqing looked at Su Ruyi in the mirror with dark eyes, her gaze lingered on her fragile neck, and then returned to normal the moment she raised her head.

Su Ruyi didn't notice his change, and said to herself: "If your little bastard finds out, see if he will recognize you as his father."

Zhong Liqing already had some doubts in her heart that Su Ruyi had taken Zhong Liyu away, but when she heard her mention it suddenly, she believed it more than half.

"Ruyi was joking. Kou Rou passed away due to illness. What does it have to do with me? By the way, since you mentioned Yu'er, let's see when I will send someone to bring him back. Three years have already come." Zhong Liqing tentatively.

Su Ruyi snorted unhappily, "Just send someone to pick you up, and tell me something."

Last time, she and Zhong Liqing had a big quarrel over this matter, and everyone in the house knew about it. Her mother told her severely that she was not allowed to stop Zhong Liqing from taking that little bastard back.

She asked why, Zhong Liqing clearly wanted to poke her eyes with that little bastard, didn't he just want to tell himself that she hadn't given birth to a son and a half for him yet?

But her mother analyzed the benefits of taking Zhong Liyu back to her.First of all, after picking up Zhong Liyu, it was to shut up the mouths of other people, and they would stop staring at Su Ruyi's belly all day long after my uncle had a queen.Secondly, it was because Zhong Liyu's uncle was promoted two ranks in a row because of his meritorious service in saving the driver and improving the new type of weapon. At least he has a place in the capital, so it is not appropriate to offend him too much.In the end, it was also for the harmony of their husband and wife. After all, she has been childless for ten years. According to the rule of seven, Zhong Liqing can divorce her wife, and the county lord's mansion can't complain.

Su Ruyi said "he dares to divorce his wife", but in fact she had accepted her mother's persuasion in her heart, thinking that next time Zhong Liqing brought it up again, she would not be able to object.

Zhong Liqing didn't know about this, he only knew that last time when he proposed to take Zhongliyu back, Su Ruyi's furious look clearly opposed it.Why did she agree so lightly this time? Did she say that because she was sure that he would not pick up Yu'er?

He suppressed his anger and suggested to Su Ruyi: "Then who do you want to send to bring Yu'er back? How about sending Zhao Zhong?" He emphasized the word Zhao Zhong, hoping that Su Ruyi could tell him the truth .

Who knew that Su Ruyi didn't show her expression at all, but asked in confusion: "Why did you send Zhao Zhong? Don't you like to send Ma Shun to do things for you?"

Zhong Liqing said in a deep voice: "Are you guilty of not letting me send Zhao Zhong?"

Su Ruyi was confused, could it be that he knew about sending Zhao Zhong to seek birth medicine?Thinking of Zhong Liqing's rejection of this kind of theory of ghosts and ghosts, Su Ruyi could only pretend to be calm: "Why am I guilty? I just sent him another errand, and it's not that there is no one in the house. You have to keep an eye on Zhao Zhong What are you doing?"

Zhong Liqing sat down beside her, then reached out and turned her body around, stared into her eyes and said, "Ruyi, I already know, you'd better not keep it from me."

Su Ruyi's heart was beating fast, and she was about to explain, but she heard him say, "Where did you hide Yu'er? I already know that your people took Yu'er away."

Su Ruyi couldn't react for a while, she was silent for a while, and asked, "What... what did you say?"

"I said, hurry up and send Yu'er back, he will be of great use."
