C170 – Interests Are Compatible
Since Liang Qi knew what kind of stupid thing he had done, he hid at ho for two days in fear of being caught by Duke Zhen’s guards the mont he stepped out of the door.
After two days of peace and quiet, he was feeling very uncomfortable at ho. After thinking for a while, he decided that the lilight should have passed, so he asked the servants to prepare a palanquin and change into it to prepare to go to the yan.
It’s not Minister Lee’s fault for disliking him, Liang Qi completely doesn’t have the concept of standing on the ground and working. Sotis when he’s in a good mood, he can lock himself in his room and study weapons for a month, sotis he can spend the entire month in the village.
But even so, he still sat firmly in the position of Ministry of Works’s vice minister. Although he was not favored by the top, Minister Lee did not care about him, because he was the candidate chosen by Duke Zhen.
Of course, there were very few people who knew of this matter. Outsiders were only curious about how a person who had a poor rating would be able to hold his position.
Upon entering the Ministry of Works Yan, Liang Qi pulled a colleague and asked in a small voice, “Is the Lord here?”
That colleague just so happened to be one of the ones who went out with him that day. He couldn’t help but roll his eyes at him, “At a ti like this, you’re the only one who isn’t here.”
“Cough, cough …” Liang Qi stuck out his chest, “I just ca back from the weapon factory. I’m very busy.”
That colleague nodded carelessly and left while carrying a pile of docunts. Outside, it didn’t matter how close they were with Vice Minister Liang, but inside the yan, if Minister Ke saw them, he would definitely suffer.
“Hey, don’t go …” Liang Qi quickly pulled him back and tried to change the topic, “About that …” Cough, did you see Director Zuo? “
At the ntion of Zuo Shaoqing, that colleague’s face turned red and white. Obviously, he also had a disgraceful experience that night.
He muttered, “I only arrived a little earlier than you.” Then he flicked his sleeve and left.
Liang Qi scratched his chin. He felt that the Wife of Duke Zhen in the legend was just ssing around, so he automatically added Zuo Shaoqing to his faction.
How could he know that Zuo Shaoqing also rested at ho for two days while he was hiding at ho to avoid trouble. To be more precise, he lay on the bed for two days.
When Liang Qi appeared in his line of sight, Zuo Shaoqing smiled sinisterly. He rubbed his sore waist, got up and put on an unbeatable, pure, and kind smile. He saluted and said, “Lord Liang, we et again.”
Liang Qi walked around Master Lu twice and said in a low voice, “What a great water rushed into the Dragon King’s Temple. If I knew you were Master Lu’s wife, I wouldn’t have brought you to the brothel.” It made him nervous for two days.
Zuo Shaoqing waved his hand generously: “It’s okay, it’s okay. As a man, what’s wrong with the previous brothel?” It was just lying in bed for two more days due to overwork.
“Eh? Master Lu was not mad? You don’t look too good. ” Liang Qi stared at him with twinkling eyes, as if trying to read sothing in his face.
Before he walked in, he still felt a little bit of guilt. He was afraid that his marriage would be ruined because of this incident, even though he really didn’t know what Zuo Shaoqing thought of Master Lu.
If he found a strong and possessive man to be his husband, wouldn’t that intentionally create trouble for him?
Zuo Shaoqing’s expression did not change as he laughed blandly, “Master Lu is the most sensible. Why would he go crazy over such a small thing?” At most, his face would be a little dark, his heart a little dark, and his actions a little more ruthless.
Liang Qi had been hiding at ho for two days, so he missed the new decree issued by the imperial governnt. The brothers put their arms around Zuo Shaoqing’s shoulders and said, “That’s good, next ti I will bring you to another house, it definitely suits your taste.”
He was already saying why Zuo Shaoqing was so calm that night, so he actually went through the wrong door.
Zuo Shaoqing thought to himself, “If it’s like that, then I’m afraid they won’t even be able to see the sun on the second day.”
These two days, he had asked Yinyi about a lot of things related to Liang Qi. He knew that this person had always been carefree and unruly, but to be able to catch Lu Zheng’s eyes was definitely not as simple as it seed.
Zuo Shaoqing didn’t want to arouse his vigilance, so he couldn’t act too cordially or too estrangingly. He slapped his hand away and smiled, “This official thanks Lord Liang for his good intentions, but it’s better to forget about it in the future.” Two more tis was not enough for the imperial court to hate him to the bone.
Liang Qi touched the back of his hand awkwardly and thought: I forgot that I can’t treat him like an ordinary man.
He moved closer to Zuo Shaoqing, lowered his voice and asked, “Can you tell how you took down Master Lu? I thought that man wouldn’t be able to see anyone in his life. “
Zuo Shaoqing replied shyly, “It’s nothing, I think Master Lu and I are fated to share.” Otherwise, how could it be explained that two people who had never t in their previous life had t in this life?
Liang Qi looked at his slightly red cheeks, which were a little red in the middle of the white. His skin was like jade, and his eyes were vivid. He thought to himself, “Looks like even Duke Zhen is not immune to lustful n and won.”
Facing such a beauty, Liang Qi could not help but take a few more glances, and only then, embarrassedly changed the topic, “You have been in the Ministry of Works for quite so ti, did Minister Lee say which area he wanted you to take over?”
Zuo Shaoqing’s mind stirred and he frowned slightly, “Speaking of which, this official doesn’t have the opportunity to see Minister Lee these days. Minister Ke only arranged for this official to read the docunts here.”
“How much?” Liang Qi walked past him and scanned the room that he rarely stepped into since he entered Ministry of Works, and his eyebrows creased together.
He probably understood what Cork was up to, and he knew it was always the sa for the average new official, but the docunts in this room were not secret.
“I’ve seen most of it, but …” Zuo Shaoqing paused for a mont and said with distress, “But this official has seen so much. There are very few military equipnt. Most of them are just normal civil engineering.”
Liang Qi suddenly turned around and excitedly asked, “You’re also interested in weapons?”
He wasn’t really interested, he just wanted to start from here! Zuo Shaoqing smiled and nodded: “Yes, it’s just that this official doesn’t know much about this. I don’t know if he has any talent in this aspect.”
“Haha …” If a fourteen year old top scholar who has reached the 3-Yuan level does not have talent, then who would be able to? ” Liang Qi silently scolded: even a person like Duke Zhen was able to deal with such a person, he must be talented.
“Since you’re interested, it just so happens that I’m lacking a subordinate. Rather than following Ke City, why don’t you follow ? At the very least, I’m not one of those hypocrites.”
When Zuo Shaoqing heard this, he knew that Ministry of Works was not going to deal with the two vice ministers, but it was beneficial to him as it would not hurt to do so.
Zuo Shaoqing pondered for a mont and then bowed to Liang Qi in a serious manner, “Then I’ll have to trouble you with Vice Minister Liang’s guidance from now on.”
“It’s nothing, it’s nothing! Haha … I’ll go speak with Minister Lee right now. ” After Liang Qi finished his sentence, he ran away like the wind. That agile and vigorous figure reminded Zuo Shaoqing of that night, and he thought to himself that it was no wonder that he could be this alert when drunk and slip away from under the noses of the guards of the Liu Steel Manor.
After the ti it took for an incense stick to burn, Zuo Shaoqing was able to see the happy Vice Minister returning. Then, he openly left the Ministry of Works yan and headed straight for the so-called secret base.
Seemingly seeing through his doubts, Liang Qi said resentfully: “Don’t you know that in Minister Lee’s eyes, we are already the sa mountain? If it wasn’t for my absence on your first day in office, you would have already divided the loot to . “
Zuo Shaoqing asked in surprise, “What do you an?” When did he get tied up with Liang Qi? It couldn’t be that the two of them had a relationship with Lu Zheng, right?
The truth was exactly like that. Minister Lee, although he seed old and dizzy on the surface, did not care about anything, but deep down, he was still a traditional civil servant. When it ca to Zuo Shaoqing’s marriage, he would definitely not agree with it from the bottom of his heart.
Liang Qi was not soone he could let down his guard. Plus, there was Ke City interfering with his plan, so everything went according to plan.
Ke City was only worried that Zuo Shaoqing was too strong to handle under his charge, so he threw this matter to Liang Qi. However, he didn’t know that his current narrow-mindedness had beco the biggest obstacle in his path.
Once Zuo Shaoqing wanted to do sothing, he would do it with utmost care and not mind helping Liang Qi. Not only was he smart, he was also quick on the uptake.
Initially, he was worried that this Wife of Duke Zhen was arrogant. However, when he realized that he didn’t have the awareness of being a man’s wife and that he didn’t have the extravagance of a noble family’s child, he gradually released his courage and ordered her to get on his good side.
Zuo Shaoqing always accepted all the quests with a smile as if he was enjoying the treat. In the blink of an eye, he had made a note to Liang Qi in his heart, conveniently calculating when he would erge victorious.
Although Zuo Shaoqing’s thoughts were not right, and his motives were not pure, he felt a great sense of accomplishnt whenever he saw the military equipnt that he was involved in developing being sent to the Military Departnt, thinking that it might be useful to Lu Zheng.
