Wearing a book, hooking him up

Chapter 174 I Only Like Him

After sitting for a quarter of an hour, Jun Zechen, still thinking about the memorials that he had not yet reviewed, stood up and prepared to take Su Jingyao back.

When the red-robed shopkeeper saw that the distinguished guests were about to leave, he trotted over with a cordial smile on his face.

He quickly said, "Welcome to come again next time."

Jun Zechen and Su Jingyao had just stepped out of the carved gate of Mingxiang Yige when the military officer from Yicheng came with dozens of soldiers and aggressively surrounded Mingxiang Yige in an instant.

The soldier stood at the front with his head held high.

He shouted loudly, "You are the ones who beat the young master of the Li family until he vomited blood and fainted?"

Jun Zechen looked indifferent, raised his head slightly, and replied casually, "Yes, I called."

The tone seemed to be just a trivial matter.

"How dare you! Do you take the imperial law seriously? Since you have admitted it, follow me to the government office and let the city lord convict you."

The soldier was so angry that he blew his beard and glared, pointing his finger at Jun Zechen and shouting at him.

"Okay, I also want to see how the city lord will interrogate this matter."

Jun Zechen's lips curled up in an imperceptible sneer, his eyes revealing majesty, and then he walked forward without hesitation.

The soldier stared at Jun Zechen blankly, his heart full of doubts.

He originally thought that it would take some effort to catch this person, so he brought a lot of soldiers with him. He didn't expect that he would be willing to go to the government office so easily?

Why do you look like you're in a hurry?

It was really beyond his expectation.

Jun Zechen felt a little irritated.

He knew that many of these cities were only prosperous on the surface, but were filthy inside and needed to be vigorously governed.

However, just like the corrupt officials in the court, when one is eliminated, there is always another one that pops up without knowing the consequences.

Although I can't kill it, I still have to use it as a deterrent from time to time. Since I've encountered it today, I'll kill the chicken to scare the monkey.

Jun Zechen wanted to see how the Lord of Yi City was going to deal with the affairs of the Li family.

Su Jingyao's hand had been held tightly by Jun Zechen. His movements were gentle and powerful, but his expression was cold as ice.

When they arrived at the government office, they were taken directly to the court without any delay.

It was the first time for Su Jingyao to come to such a place, and she looked around curiously.

Looking at the plaque hanging high in the court, as well as the neatly arranged cases and torture instruments, it was not much different from what I had seen in TV dramas.

Not long after, several servants came hurriedly carrying a stretcher, and lying on the stretcher was Li Yan, the son of the Li family.

He looked pale and his breath was weak.

Following behind was the mistress of the Li family, a woman dressed in gorgeous clothes and with an angry face, who was also Li Yan's mother.

The city lord then walked to his seat in the court and sat down slowly. His posture seemed dignified, but in fact, he seemed a little guilty.

"Shengtang——"

The bailiff at the side shouted loudly, and his voice echoed in the court.

"I heard that someone in the hall has admitted to beating Li Yan, the son of the Li family. Is this confirmed?" The city lord frowned and asked seriously.

"Yes." Jun Zechen replied coldly with no expression on his face.

"In that case, I will make the ruling on this case."

As the city lord said this, he picked up the gavel and was about to strike.

"The city lord didn't ask why? Wasn't the trial too hasty?"

Jun Zechen narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze as sharp as a torch, staring straight at the city lord.

"Assault causing serious injury is a felony regardless of the cause."

"According to the provisions of the "Jun Lu Shuyi", Li Yan should be punished with flogging for flirting with women, and he should be punished with exile for obstructing the normal operation of the teahouse and for using his power to threaten the people and force them to consume in his own teahouse."

Jun Zechen looked calm, and spoke the laws of the dynasty clearly word by word, with an unquestionable tone.

When Mrs. Li heard this, she glared at Jun Zecheng.

"These are just your one-sided words. My son has always been a man of integrity and courtesy. How could he do the things you said?"

Jun Zechen didn't even glance at Madam Li, as if she didn't exist, and looked at the city lord with deep and sharp eyes.

He asked in a very oppressive tone: "I wonder if the city lord will deal with the crime committed by Li Yan?"

"How dare you! You beat up the young master of the Li family like this, how can you still flirt with women and threaten the people?"

The city lord slammed the gavel, trying to hide his guilty conscience.

"So the city lord is not going to continue investigating?"

Jun Zechen's voice became increasingly cold, and a frightening aura emanated from his body.

"I am just being realistic."

Jun Zechen gave him a chance, and since he didn't cherish it, there was no room for regret.

"In this case, Anshun, pass on my order. Gu Yuan, the Lord of Yicheng, has protected the many illegal acts of the young master of the Li family. The people are angry and the order is broken. This is a serious betrayal of my trust and the people's trust. The position of the Lord of Yicheng is abolished, and the governor of the state is ordered to go to Yicheng immediately to take over the government affairs, rectify the order, and appease the people."

Jun Zechen's voice was sonorous and powerful.

After saying that, Jun Zechen didn't even look at Gu Yuan's expression which changed from shock to panic. He turned around, took Su Jingyao's hand and walked out.

Anshun naturally stayed to deal with Gu Yuan's affairs.

Although Anshun is always amiable in front of His Majesty and the Queen, he also often deals with officials in the court, and he is also very dignified when he is serious.

Gu Yuan sat limply in his seat, as if his spine had been removed.

His Majesty?!!

It was like thunder exploding in his mind.

He had heard about His Majesty's southern tour, but he had no idea that His Majesty had come to Yicheng? He even had such a fierce conflict with the young master of the Li family.

It’s over, it’s completely over now.

Gu Yuan's face was pale and his eyes were full of despair and fear.

Mrs. Li below was still in a daze and had not yet recovered from the sudden change.

Li Yan, who was standing by, could no longer hold on and fainted completely.

Anshun handled these matters in an orderly manner. Not long after, General Ye came in with his guards. Gu Yuan's only remaining hope was completely shattered. His eyes became empty and his body kept shaking.

Jun Zechen brought Su Jingyao back to the house. Along the way, he kept his lips tightly closed, said nothing, and took Su Jingyao straight to the study.

After entering the study, Su Jingyao looked up and saw that there was another desk next to Jun Zechen's desk. Was it prepared for her?

Su Jingyao blinked, first looked at the table, then cast her gaze at Jun Zechen who had an expressionless face.

Jun Zechen did not say anything. He just sat down at the desk, picked up a memorial, and began to read it intently, as if Su Jingyao beside him did not exist and completely ignored her.

Su Jingyao frowned slightly.

Did he care too much about Li Jin? It had been so many years, why was he still so upset?

Su Jingyao couldn't think of any other reason for Jun Zechen's current state except Li Jin.

Seeing that she was looking at the memorials very seriously and looked like she didn't care about her at all, Su Jingyao didn't want to curry favor with her, so she stood up and prepared to leave.

As soon as she opened the door, the servant guarding the door immediately stepped forward to stop her.

"Madam, the Third Master said that you cannot go out alone?" The servant's tone was respectful but firm.

A trace of anger flashed in Su Jingyao's eyes. She turned around and glared at Jun Zechen, who still had no reaction, then sat back angrily.

One hand was resting on the desk, and the other hand was flipping through the book on the table boredly. Neither of them spoke, and the sound of turning pages was particularly clear in the silent study.

Although Jun Zechen seemed to be concentrating on the memorials, he was actually paying attention to her every move.

Seeing that she was stopped by the servants and did not make a fuss, he felt a little better.

He didn't want her to go out today in the first place, and if she ran out on her own, Jun Zechen could almost imagine that there would be men who would have evil intentions and speak disrespectfully to her without knowing the consequences.

Fortunately, he had guards around him, so he could feel a little more at ease.

But Jun Zechen never expected that Li Jin was there too. The two of them acted like a hero saving a damsel in distress, and even drank tea and chatted leisurely together.

Whenever he thought of this, Jun Zechen became very angry and felt very upset.

I must teach her a lesson later.

Time passed silently like fine sand. Soon, the golden sun set and the gorgeous sunset covered the entire sky like brocade.

Jun Zechen finally finished reviewing the memorials, breathed a sigh of relief, and stretched his stiff shoulders.

Su Jingyao's mind was not entirely focused on the book at first, but as she read on, she gradually became absorbed in it.

Jun Zechen walked silently behind her, bent down slightly, and quickly grasped her slender waist with his hands like iron pliers. With a sudden force, he put her directly on the table.

He then sat down on the stool, his movements smooth and seamless.

Su Jingyao didn't react at all, and the book in her hand fell to the ground with a "bang" because she was frightened.

"My husband, are you done with your work?"

"Ah."

In modern times, Su Jingyao hates it most when her boyfriend replies with a cold “hmm”. Why are you pretending so hypocritically!

"I'm hungry, let's go eat."

Her face turned cold and she was about to get down from the table.

But Jun Zechen suddenly stretched out a hand and grasped her two ankles tightly, with such force that she could not move.

Then he nonchalantly took off her shoes, a dangerous look in his eyes.

"Yaoyao was very naughty today and should be punished."

Su Jingyao was not to be outdone, she suddenly stepped on Jun Zechen's leg and said coquettishly: "What did I do wrong?"

"You don't want me to accompany you, do you want to go see Li Jin?"

Jun Zechen's voice was filled with jealousy. This woman liked him because he was the emperor. If Li Jin helped her manage her business, would she also like Li Jin?

Su Jingyao felt helpless.

"I didn't know I would run into Li Jin."

Jun Zechen pinched her waist with both hands, staring at her with his deep eyes.

"Yaoyao can only like me."

Even if she doesn't love him, she can only like him, and he can give her whatever she wants.

Su Jingyao sighed helplessly again. Just try to coax him. If she continues to be jealous, she will be the one who suffers.

She hugged his neck and looked at him sincerely and affectionately, "I only love my husband."

It's easy to fall in love, but hard to make up your mind. Meeting is based on fate, and staying together is based on sincerity.

True emotion is not momentary joy and enthusiasm, but the thoughtfulness and consideration over a long period of time, and the long-lasting love and understanding. Jun Zechen may not be able to repay her love with the same love, but she will respond to this love.

Hearing this, Jun Zechen couldn't suppress the impulse in his heart. He stood up, leaned over and kissed her.

An acquaintance, cherished for a lifetime, no matter how many encounters you have, they are not as good as her.

The beauty's clothes gradually undressed.

The two of them were pressed tightly together, the full moon seemed to bend, and on the table, there was some adjustment.

It cannot be expressed in words, it can only be understood.
