Rebirth: The flatterer prince I raised couldn't be so clingy
Chapter 137 Settle old accounts
When the maid from the North Courtyard came to inform Feng Zhanye, Gu Qingzhi had just coaxed him into submission.
She was holding the young man's wrist and was about to go to eat when she saw a maid standing at the door of the back hall.
The maid glanced at the two people's hands strangely, not even bothering to bow, and said directly: "Lord Zuo Xiang asked you to go to Chongshan Pavilion for a meeting, please go as soon as possible."
After all, outsiders were watching a guard pulling and tugging at his master. Gu Qingzhi withdrew his hand awkwardly and turned to look at Feng Zhanye.
Unexpectedly, the young man stared at the maid with his dark eyes indifferently, and pulled her hand back in front of her openly.
"Don't go."
The maid was stunned. This little evil boy was usually timid and obedient. He would follow the Left Prime Minister whenever he was called. What happened to him today?
She thought it was just a child throwing a tantrum and urged him again: "If you don't go, I won't bear the responsibility if the Left Prime Minister blames you."
"I said, I'm not going, get out."
Feng Zhanye's eyes were sinister, and his originally clear and gentle voice also revealed an unquestionable oppressive force.
Gu Qingzhi was stunned for a moment. The boy in front of her seemed to have become a different person. Or perhaps, this was him in his previous life. He was supposed to be like this.
She herself had gotten used to his childish side in front of her and had completely forgotten all about it.
The maid couldn't help but feel a little scared in her heart. She took half a step back, was stunned for a moment, then came to her senses, rolled her eyes in frustration and walked away, muttering a few words.
"Tsk, if you don't want to go, then don't go. It's like you're targeting someone. It's inexplicable."
Seeing the maid's back going back to the north courtyard, Gu Qingzhi looked at her hand that he was holding and called him hesitantly, "Aye..."
Feng Zhanye turned around and smiled at her, holding her hand tighter, as if the moment just now was just an illusion.
"Sister Azhi, it doesn't matter. Even if I go, nothing good will happen. We can talk about it tomorrow."
"That's right." Gu Qingzhi nodded. "Now there is no need to act according to their moods. Aunt Liu is still waiting for us. Let's go."
"it is good."
Early the next morning, the maids who were sweeping the lotus pond were chatting while doing their work.
"Have you heard that His Majesty has granted the man from the other courtyard a palace? I never thought that this little bad guy would become a phoenix overnight!"
"I heard about it yesterday. You are too slow to tell me the news. Last night, the Left Prime Minister wanted to celebrate for him and invited the whole family to have dinner with him. But after going to the other courtyard to invite them three or four times, they didn't even give him a good look."
"I heard that the masters sat there hungry until midnight yesterday, but no one came. They made a scene and left without eating. Now that they have the mansion, they forget the kindness of the Left Prime Minister. They are really heartless."
As they were talking, they saw a dark red shadow passing by them.
Looking closely, it was the person they had just mentioned.
The boy's attire today was very different from his usual plain gray look. He was dressed in a dazzling red robe with a jade chain of lily of the valley pendants hanging around his waist. The unicorn pattern embroidered on the hem of his robe had eyes wide open, as if staring at them hungrily.
Several people immediately shut up, held their breath, lowered their heads and pretended to sweep, for fear that he might have heard something.
However, the young man had no intention of staying and took Gu Qingzhi towards the west courtyard.
Only after the two men left did the maids dare to breathe deeply.
However, with Gu Qingzhi and Feng Zhanye's hearing ability, it was impossible that they didn't hear anything.
Gu Qingzhi followed Feng Zhanye and waited until they were alone before reminding him in a low voice.
"Aye, the Zuo family will definitely talk about what happened last night later."
Feng Zhanye nodded: "I know, but before we leave the Prime Minister's Mansion, there are some old accounts that must be settled with them."
Gu Qingzhi paused, then understood what he meant.
It turned out that the child had insisted on asking her to replace Wu Fang and accompany him to the main residence for lessons as usual this morning because of this.
He had been lying dormant for so long, feeling wronged. Now that everything was settled, she naturally had no reason to stop him.
"Do whatever you want to do. I'm right behind you."
The young man curled his lips slightly and walked towards the west courtyard with big strides.
Today's swordplay class in the West Courtyard was quite lively. Not only Zuo Chengran and the swordplay master were there, but several other illegitimate children of the Zuo family were also here.
Zuo Chengran was sparring with his swordsmanship master with a wooden sword. Every time he made a move, his younger brothers and sisters cheered and supported him.
"Wow! Second brother is so awesome! This move is so cool, I want to learn it too!"
"My second brother's swordsmanship is more powerful now, and he looks more like a military commander."
Hearing the praises, Zuo Chengran became more excited and attacked with more vigor.
"Second Young Master, calm down, and don't be disturbed by other things."
Seeing that his moves were becoming increasingly erratic, the swordsmanship master couldn't help but remind him.
Zuo Chengran just said "I know" and swung the wooden sword in his hand faster and faster.
Feng Zhanye, dressed in red and with a handsome face, walked into the courtyard and instantly attracted everyone's attention.
Zuo Lanxin standing next to him had her eyes fixed on him, as if they were born on his body.
Hearing the cheers around him suddenly quiet down, Zuo Chengran looked up, and when he saw it was him coming in, he was distracted and for a moment he didn't notice that the swordsmanship master's moves had already hit him.
Zuo Chengran felt a pain in his left shoulder and almost fell backwards.
The swordsmanship master was frightened and quickly grabbed one of his arms to prevent him from falling.
Zuo Chengran staggered two steps to steady himself. He was naturally very unhappy about being robbed of the limelight. He gritted his teeth and said sarcastically, "How dare you come here? You asked us to wait for most of the night yesterday. Aren't you very courageous?"
Sure enough, the first person to take action against this matter appeared.
Feng Zhanye walked into the arena unmoved and looked directly at him: "I'm here to take sword lessons, what's the problem?"
"Ha!" Zuo Chengran laughed strangely, as if he had heard a huge joke. He pointed at him and turned to look at his younger brother and sister.
"Did you hear that? That's the funniest joke I've heard in a while."
"Don't you see your own behavior? You'll still be useless even if you practice for another hundred years. Why do you still want to humiliate yourself?"
He poked Feng Zhanye's chest hard with his finger and turned to ask about the swordsmanship master.
"Master, are you still willing to teach him even though he is like this?"
The swordsmanship master had been with the second son of the Zuo family for such a long time that he already knew exactly what kind of temper he had. If he offended him, he would definitely not end up well today.
But the person in front of him had just received a reward, and both of them were people whom he could not afford to offend.
He looked at Feng Zhanye, sighed slightly and said, "Alas, you don't need to be too obsessed with practicing martial arts. If it's not suitable, the more you practice, the more trouble you will have."
The words were not harsh, but they made Zuo Chengran feel comfortable. Feng Zhanye had always been respectful to his master, so it was not too much to say so.
If it had happened on an ordinary day, Feng Zhan Ye probably wouldn't have said anything, and the matter would have just been forgotten.
But today, he came here just to make the Zuo family unhappy.
"Master is right. If a person is not suitable for the job and does not know it, it will be a disaster for both him and others."
The boy's black hair was blown by the breeze, and the two red ribbons in his hair fluttered in the wind, making him look more noble. His slender eyes stared at Zuo Chengran with a smile, as if he was hinting at something.
