The Emperor’s Beloved Ugly Girl

Speaking of which, the Zou family is also a famous family in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and many famous officials have been born in their ancestors, but the father of the Zou family passed away early, so the lintel of the Zou family is not as good as the Xu family, the Zhao family, or even the Cui family. So prominent, but Zou Shijie is an out-and-out dragon and phoenix. He is only over 30 now, and he has already been ranked as the left servant of the second-rank punishment department. Zou Shijie has his own abilities here, so he naturally does not leave Zhong Zhiheng's blue eyes and his friendship. He was promoted, and the reason why Zhong Zhiheng was willing to marry the Zou family to the third prince was naturally because he valued the Zou family. Now the old minister of the Ministry of punishment is over seventy years old, and his health is already weak. All the affairs of the Ministry of punishment are handed over to Zou Shijie In his hands, anyone can see that when the old minister leaves the court, the position of minister of the Ministry of punishment will almost always fall on Zou Shijie's head, so for Zhong Ming'e, the Zou family is really important.

Your Highness, don't get up, Liao Chongwu went over to help Zhong Ming'e in a hurry, and while taking out the ointment he just bought from his chest, he said to Zhong Ming'e, Your Highness, I will give you the medicine first.

I don't have that time anymore, Zhong Ming'e said with a pale face, while reaching out to support Liao Chongwu's arm, he sat down gritted his teeth, and while gasping for air, he ordered Liao Chongwu, Change my clothes.

Liao Chongwu felt distressed seeing him persist like this, but he didn't say anything. He was too busy to change Zhong Ming'e's clothes, and at the same time squatted down to put on Zhong Ming'e's shoes. At this moment, squatting in front of him, putting on his shoes carefully, for a moment, he felt really uncomfortable. He patted Liao Chongwu's shoulder lightly, and said softly, Don't worry, I'm fine.

Well, Liao Chongwu hummed sullenly, then stood up, and said to Zhong Ming'e, This subordinate will send His Highness back.

No need, Zhong Ming'e avoided Liao Chongwu's sight, while moving slowly outside, I'll just walk back by myself.

Zou Shijie is not an ordinary small character. He has worked in the Ministry of Criminal Justice for more than ten years. He has to be said to be a genius. Zhong Ming'e is really not sure if he will have any openings in front of him, especially after this incident with Liao Chongwu just now. thing.

I'll come back when I get to the front yard, and I won't go in, Liao Chongwu said in a deep voice, as if he understood Zhong Ming'e's concerns, while going up, he held Zhong Ming'e's arm involuntarily, Let's go.

Zhong Ming'e still wanted to say something, but seeing Liao Chongwu's expression, he still didn't say anything, and now he walked out the door with his help.

...

forecourt.

As soon as Zhong Ming'e entered the main hall, he saw Zou Shijie sitting and drinking tea. Zou Shijie came here at night, and naturally he had something to discuss with Zhong Ming'e, so he didn't bring any servants and guards when he came here today, and just sat in the main hall alone. Obviously waiting for Zhong Ming'e.

Your Highness, Zou Shijie watched Zhong Ming'e come in, put down his teacup immediately, and while getting up, he thought of Zhong Ming'e bowing and saluting, This subordinate has seen Your Highness.

Brother Zou, get up quickly, Zhong Ming'e hurriedly stepped forward to help Zou Shijie up, and said, This is either outside or at home. You and my brother, why do you care about the red tape?

Your Highness is lenient, but your subordinates can't overstep, Zou Shijie said slowly, while looking at Zhong Ming'e's pale cheeks, he couldn't help frowning, Is Your Highness not feeling well?

No, no, it's just that I didn't rest well last night, which made Brother Zou worry, Zhong Ming'e said in a hurry, and was so busy that he put away his legs that were still owed, and pulled Zou Shijie to sit down together, trying to bear it. In the end, he frowned slightly, scolded Liao Chongwu in his heart, but then turned his head and looked at Zou Shijie with a smile, I don't know what brother Zou is talking about coming here at night?

Originally, I came to pay New Year's greetings to His Highness and Princess Concubine yesterday, but yesterday something happened in the Ministry of Justice, so the subordinates were delayed, Zou Shijie said slowly, while reaching out to pour Zhong Ming'e After drinking a cup of tea, he brought it over and looked at Zhong Ming'e, Does your Highness know what's going on?

Brother Zou, please speak frankly. Zhong Ming'e said, he stayed in the palace for most of the day yesterday, and got mixed up with Liao Chongwu as soon as he left the palace, so he naturally knew nothing about what happened to the Ministry of Punishment.

Your Highness must know that Xiao An has already followed the Queen Mother and left for Ninggu Pagoda? Zou Shijie said slowly.
