Chapter 17 Parade

Zhou Fang and Zhou Zheng came to Zhou Qingli's study room.

Zhou Qingli looked tired and was drinking tea. She looked at the two of them, her eyes on Zhou Zheng. He looked at him for a while and said, "Didn't you get sick?"

Zhou Zheng nodded and said, "I have always been very sober."

Zhou Fang frowned and said, "Dad, let's lock my second brother at home in the future. I'll cause trouble every day. I'll run home every day. I don't know how much the matter of the Imperial College is... "

Zhou Qingli ignored Zhou Fang, looked at Zhou Zheng with a calm expression and said, "Why?"

Zhou Zheng thought about it and explained in a tactful way: "Gu Bingqian was not tolerated by Donglin, Qingliu and the eunuchs, and he was destined to be unable to come back. It would be better to invite him to have some reputation."

Tianqi will die next year, Chongzhen will succeed to the throne next year, the eunuch party will collapse next year, Donglin and Qingliu will resume next year... Who believes it?

Zhou Fang was so angry that he couldn't help but teach him a lesson.

Zhou Qingli nodded and said, "Well, now the eunuch party is attacking Gu Bingqian, and Qingliu also takes advantage of the situation. Gu Bingqian just wants to escape from the capital at this time, so there will be no more troubles. You don't have to worry. But considering that Chi is a playboy who is ignorant of the world, you should be careful."

Zhou Zheng was surprised by Mr. Zhou's attitude, looked at him seriously for a while, and said, "Yes."

Zhou Fang looked at it for no reason, turned to Zhou Qingli and said, "Dad, that's all for this?"

Zhou Zheng was the grandson of Gu Bingqian. Gu Bingqian has been in the officialdom for decades, and has been both a cabinet minister and a prime minister. Isn’t that easy to deal with their small Zhou family?

The Zhou family is about to face a disaster, and just passed by in a few words?

Zhou Qingli turned to Zhou Fang, but did not answer, but said, "Your work is almost done. Go to Haiyang County, Shandong to be the magistrate and take office on October 21st."

Zhou Fang was stunned and said, "Didn't you say you went to the Ministry of Revenue before?"

Zhou Qingli picked up the teacup and said lightly: "There is no suitable place."

Although Zhou Fang was puzzled, he thought about it and said, "It's OK."

In Zhou Fang's opinion, it's okay to go anywhere. The key is to jump out of the Imperial College, truly enter the officialdom, and start the official career.

Zhou Zheng listened on the side, looking at Mr. Zhou's expression, and felt a little surprised. His elder brother is too pure in nature and is so frustrated. In a complex and complex place like the capital, there will be an accident sooner or later. It is better to go to the place to avoid it and practice it.

After Zhou Qingli finished speaking, Zhou Fang looked at Zhou Zheng and said, "Your matter is a little bit too. I'm walking around again. How many days do you wait."

Zhou Zheng has not prepared many things yet and does not plan to become an official at this time. Zhou Qingli's arrangements are nothing more than a job post and some qualifications are added, so he does not need anyone to go to the Ministry of Personnel.

At this time, it is also an obvious unspoken rule.

Therefore, Zhou Zheng said indifferently, "Okay, I'm not in a hurry."

Zhou Qingli looked at Zhou Zheng, and seemed a little worried, saying, "Zhong Qinyong gave Gu Bingqian 800 acres of fertile land, and has already been sent to his disciples. I heard that it might be transferred to Taipu Temple. Please be careful in the future."

Zhou Zheng's restaurant had already guessed that the Zhong family had defected to Gu Bingqian, and said, "I understand."

Zhou Qing glanced at the two brothers again, felt exhausted on his face, and said, "Go ahead if you have nothing to do."

Zhou Fang wanted to speak but stopped. Looking at Zhou Qingli's tired expression, hesitated and didn't say anything.

Zhou Zheng walked faster and went straight back to the study without being caught by Zhou Fang.

Zhou Zheng returned to the study and took out his drawings, which were all about his shop. He watched them seriously and kept making fine adjustments.

Zhou Zheng revised for a while, then went to Wei Huaide's room and checked the progress.

After dinner, Zhou Zheng continued to read books and recognize words, practice calligraphy, and also looked at some things like piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.

...

Early the next morning, Zhou Zheng took Liu Liuzhe and seven servants out and went to his shop.

I didn't notice it a few times ago, this time Zhou Zheng felt tired and said, "Liu Zhe, do you have a carriage at home?"

Liu Liuzhe followed Zhou Zheng with the tools and said, "No, if you use them, the master will ask Uncle Fu to rent them back from outside."

Zhou Zheng felt the soreness of his legs and said, "When I make money, I will remind me to buy one, no, buy three."

Liu Liuzhe looked up at Zhou Zheng and reminded him, "Second Young Master, the carriage is not expensive, but it is very troublesome to raise and consume a lot, not as much as a sedan chair."

Zhou Zheng thought about it carefully, and raised a horse, which was worth several servants. He endured the soreness of his legs and said, "Well, I have to make money."

Liu Liuzhe didn't care about this, and his eyes kept looking around vigilantly. The same was true for the seven servants, as if they were thieves, observing everyone around them.

Zhou Zheng glanced at the eyes and asked strangely, "What are you doing?"

Liu Liuzhe looked at the distance and whispered: "Second Young Master, I'm afraid that the one with the surname Gu and the one with the surname Zhong will lead us to block us."

Zhou Zheng reached out and took a bag on his shoulder and taught: "First of all, you must clearly define the positioning. We are good people, and they are bad people. It is natural for good people to beat bad people; bad people to beat good people, and the law of nature is not tolerated; especially when bad people are still strong, we are even more fearless and fearless."

Liu Liuzhe blinked, what is the reason? I can’t understand it at all.

Zhou Zheng looked at him with a puzzled look and said, "I'm afraid they won't come. If they come, we will establish the image of a strong and unyielding rebel. That is the capital for our future development... It's like the adults in the court who are proud of being sceptered by the court and are rushing to be beaten. Why? Because that is fame, once they are beaten, they will praise the country and look up to the sky. It won't take long, this is the capital for their promotion..."

Liu Liuzhe became even more puzzled and whispered, "But, we offended Shoufu Gu, and the eunuch party..."

Zhou Zheng was too lazy to explain so much this time, and said, "For a moment, let's decorate the house first today, and there is still something to do tomorrow."

Liu Liuzhe was completely puzzled by Zhou Zheng's behavior and did things. He only wanted to be safe and safe today and not have trouble again. He followed Zhou Zheng carefully and walked towards the shop.

A group of people came to the shop in a huge rush. This time they were not splashed with feces or burned, and they were completely complete.

Zhou Zheng waited into the shop and put down the things. Zhou Zheng looked at it, took out the drawings and said, "Come on, let me talk about how to decorate it first. First, the house on the left was smashed, laying a way out, and then the wall inside opened. The walls were all scraped, redecorated, and I personally chose the color. The floor should be laid with celadon tiles, and the outside walls should be reinstalled. The roof beams should be blocked with partitions, hang lamps, painted, and four pillars should be erected outside the wall. They should be tall, and the banners should be visible from a distance. I will write the content..."

Liu Liuzhe and seven servants surrounded Zhou Zheng and listened seriously.

Zhou Zheng has many ideas on the decoration of this shop, and he has said a lot.

He was talking, suddenly, the sound of gongs sounded, becoming clearer and clearer.

Zhou Zheng and others turned around and looked at the two teams of stalkers, carrying a middle-aged man covered in shackles, appeared on the corner of the street, and turned around and walked straight towards them.

This is the first time Zhou Zheng saw a prisoner parade, but they are at the end of the street. What are they doing here for them?
