The disgraced official I took care of was actually Zhu Houcong's childhood friend.

"You...you didn't...know all along that my teacher was...Tang Bohu?"

Although Zhou Chu was drunk, his mind was unusually clear.

A drunk person's mind is never confused, but their self-control is severely impaired.

Things that one wouldn't dare say or do in normal times, one would do when drunk.

For example, just now he made Wang Yangming and Tang Bohu become sworn brothers.

Zhou Chu thought to himself, "If I were to become sworn brothers with these two, how awesome would that be? I'd definitely be remembered in history."

Zhou Chu attempted to make a name for himself in history in a despicable way, but was stopped by Chu Li and others.

The plan to make a name for oneself in history thus failed.

At this moment, Zhou Chu was even having trouble speaking.

Chu Li smiled upon hearing this.

"I used to just think that your handwriting was somewhat similar to that of the Peach Blossom Hermit, as if they came from the same lineage, but I wasn't so sure."

“I’ve seen his calligraphy before.”

After saying this, Chu Li sighed.

“My father has been looking very troubled lately. It’s probably because he’s having some problems with his career. I’m just a woman, and I can’t help him. I shouldn’t ask him anything. I probably won’t be able to stay in the capital for much longer.”

Chu Li thought that her father had been frowning and preoccupied lately, probably because he had encountered setbacks in his career.

He will likely be demoted, which would mean he would have to leave the capital.

That's why she was so reckless in insisting on taking Zhou Chu home.

After Chu Li finished speaking, she looked at Zhou Chu again, only to find that Zhou Chu had already fallen asleep.

Chu Li sighed, kissed Zhou Chu on the forehead, looked at him reluctantly, and then left.

When Zhou Chu woke up, it was already completely dark.

He took the hangover soup from Chunlan and drank two sips.

Then he put on his clothes and looked at the sky outside.

Although he was drunk, Zhou Chu did not black out.

He remembered what Chu Li had told him.

Is something bad about the Chu family?

"A knife."

Zhou Chu called out.

In less than three seconds, Xiao Dao silently appeared in front of Zhou Chu.

"He walks with a lot of noise, like a ghost."

Zhou Chu said irritably.

"it is good."

Xiao Dao followed the path of goodness.

Xiao Dao listens to Zhou Chu now, but that's about it.

Zhou Chu had said the same thing to her many times.

But she had already formed a habit, and it was difficult for her to change it.

In reality, Zhou Chu didn't really want her to change; he was just making a few sarcastic remarks.

"Have your master investigate the Chu family and find out where Lord Chu has been lately."

Zhou Chu was well aware that the recent turmoil in the capital meant that something big was about to happen in the next year or two.

Countless people will be affected.

Zhou Chu couldn't guarantee the safety of others, but he still had to protect his close friends.

If it were just a demotion, that would be fine.

In two years, I will naturally find a way to reinstate him to his original position.

The worst fear is that it won't end there.

The closer something important is to happening, the more cautious we must be.

Zhou Chu needed to keep a close eye on Wang Cai and his friends' homes.

In case they are caught off guard and affected, we will be prepared.

Let's save as many as we can.

At this moment, not only Zhou Chu woke up, but Tang Bohu also woke up.

However, although Tang Bohu had woken up, he was not completely sober and still felt a little drunk.

After all, both Zhou Chu and Wang Yangming had practiced martial arts.

Zhou Chu even suspected that Wang Yangming's martial arts skills were much stronger than his own.

After all, he fought his way out of the encirclement while being pursued by the Imperial Guards back then.

In terms of physical fitness, both of them far surpassed Tang Bohu, so they naturally sobered up faster.

The woman who followed Tang Bohu was named Yunniang, a courtesan who worked at the same brothel as Shen Jiuniang.

Both she and Shen Jiuniang admired Tang Bohu greatly, but she was also aware of the relationship between Tang Bohu and Shen Jiuniang.

Therefore, I can only keep this admiration to myself.

Later, after Shen Jiuniang passed away, Yunniang began to take care of Tang Bohu intentionally or unintentionally.

Tang Bohu went to Prince Ning's place, which made Yunniang feel disappointed for a long time.

A few years ago, Tang Bohu suddenly returned to Jiangnan, acting like a madman. Yunniang was heartbroken and used her savings to redeem herself from her servitude, taking care of Tang Bohu.
