Reborn: The First Rank "Madam"

C183 – You Won’t Understand!

The group boarded the ship at the harbor. Gradually, a small group of people became seasick, and even the madame was not spared.

Fortunately, Lu Zheng and Zuo Shaoqing, who were worried about the madame’s health, finally felt relieved after a few days of being able to return to normal after having brought the several doctors with them.

On the spacious deck, there was a rocking chair under a large umbrella. The madame had a handkerchief over her eyes as she listened to the sound of the water flowing.

On her left was a small tea table with frozen melon fruits and a pot of warm soup. On her right were two maids standing by her side, waiting to receive orders.

“Madame, why don’t you go in and rest for a while? It’s too sunny now. ” Maid Zhong took out a cloak and tried her best to persuade him.

“Once inside, I’m going to be seasick again. It’s so comfortable on the deck. The wind’s not too hot either.”

Maid Zhong put on her cloak, turned around and put away the cold melon fruits on the tea table. She then asked the maidservant to put on warm food before she gave up.

“Go call for Zheng’er, tell him that I have something to say.” The madame removed the handkerchief from her eyes and instructed the maidservant.

“Yes.” The maidservant answered and left. However, a moment later, Lu Zheng and Zuo Shaoqing walked out.

Zuo Shaoqing

“Should we reach the Cang State tomorrow?” Originally, the journey from the capital to Cang State only took five days, but because the madame was not used to it, it was delayed by one day.

“Mm, when the boat docks, you can go for a walk.”

The old mistress’ eyes lit up. “Alright, you guys pack your things as well. Let’s switch to the road tomorrow. I won’t have a good time with all of you around.”

Zuo Shaoqing didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. He didn’t expect them to be chased off the boat. However, he was already tired of the monotonous waterway. He had no objections about changing to the land route.

“Mother, are you not coming with us to the Crane City?” Crane City was Lu Zheng’s first stop on this trip. Originally, they planned to buy a house in Crane City for a period of time.

“Don’t worry about that. I’ll get someone to contact you when we get there.” The madame waved her hand dismissively, obviously not intending to reveal her trip.

“Alright.” Lu Zheng nodded. With the madame following them, their journey was indeed too slow.

When the two returned to the cabin, Zuo Shaoqing asked with uncertainty, “Is it safe like this?” These two ships’ items were clearly telling the bandits: Come quickly, come quickly, I’m very rich!

Lu Zheng bit on his changing face to comfort him: “Don’t worry, these two ships are so big, even water bandits wouldn’t dare to easily block them, not to mention the ones at the helm are all from Cao Sect, they are safe and sound.”

Zuo Shaoqing nodded. Then, he took off his outer clothes and got into bed, continuing his afternoon nap.

Lu Zheng also drilled his way in, sticking closely to Zuo Shaoqing’s back and pushing him away like a fly, “It’s too hot, don’t get so close.”

Lu Zheng rubbed the back of his neck, making Zuo Shaoqing itch to shrink back, “Stop…” “Haha …”

It had been a long time since the two of them had had such a leisurely time together. Only after they had played around in bed for a while and accidentally started a fire did they calm down.

Lu Zheng also agreed to change the route. There was a very important reason, the cabin was separated by a thin layer of wood, so they could clearly hear the sound of walking next door. Since they got on the boat, the two had always abided by the rules and didn’t dare to make any noise.

Even if the two of them were not shameless, it would still be embarrassing for such a matter to be heard by everyone.

“We’ll stay at the Cang State for the night tomorrow after coming ashore …” Lu Zheng said as he licked Zuo Shaoqing’s ear with the tip of his tongue.

Zuo Shaoqing successfully received some kind of signal. His heart rippled and he weakly replied with the word “good”.

After dinner, Lu Zheng informed everyone of his decision. Everyone was led by him, so there was no objection. Only Liang Qi lazily stood and asked: “Can you get a more comfortable carriage? “My body is weak, but I can’t bear the bumpy ride.”

Zuo Shaoqing’s gaze swept across his tall body, as he felt a bad premonition in his heart.

There were only two civil servants on this trip, Liang Qi and himself. The rest were all military generals. It seemed like he would have to travel the rest of the way in the same car with this unreliable guy on the mountain.

“Wu Tie looked at me with such a passionate gaze. Is it because he has the same thought as me?” Liang Qi winked at Zuo Shaoqing and smiled maliciously.

Ever since he found out that the brothels throughout the capital were forbidden from being opened to officials, and the culprit was precisely the person in front of him, he had to choke a few times every time he saw Zuo Shaoqing.

In his life, how would he live without a beautiful girl? However, in the capital, you’re not allowed to engage in prostitution, so you shouldn’t have mentioned other places, right?

Vice Minister Liang, who had made up his mind to steal food on the shore tomorrow, revealed an obscene smile.

Zuo Shaoqing saw the series of changes in his expression and knew what he was thinking with his toes, “Lord Liang misunderstood. I was just thinking, how many people should be arranged to protect ‘weak’ you?”

“Hehe …” Hehe, with Master Lu and all the generals here, how is there any more danger? “

“That might not be the case. There will always be times where we won’t be together. For example, going to the latrine. Or when you are dating a beauty. If you do half of the good stuff, then you will be given a beating … That’s not good! “

The crowd of crude military officials burst out laughing. Just thinking about that scene, they found it extremely interesting. A naked man was moving around while lying on top of a woman. Suddenly, a sharp sword stabbed at him.

Unnaturally, Liang Qi tightened his legs, coughed twice, and asked Lu Zheng for help. “Master Lu, is it really okay if the dignified Wife of Duke Zhen is so indecent?”

Lu Zheng drank his tea calmly. “I haven’t thanked you for bringing him to the brothel for a look. Otherwise, how would he know all this?”

“Ha, ha …” Zuo Shaoqing and Liang Qi laughed coyly at the same time and then shut their mouths.

Obviously, it was not the first time that the two sides worked together, and they also knew what kind of person he was. On the contrary, it was Zuo Shaoqing, and even Soong Hanlin, who was close to Lu Zheng, did not dare to joke around with him.

Zuo Shaoqing expressed helplessness. With Wife of Duke Zhen’s title, no one dared to treat him as a man anymore. It was as if he had committed a heinous crime. Was there even a need to?

In the early morning of the next day, the group of people went onto their Cang State and parted ways with the madame after a day’s rest. If they ignored the madame’s elated expression, Zuo Shaoqing would definitely say a few words of farewell.

Taking the horse from the relay station, Zuo Shaoqing rode it for half a day before giving up. Last night, he overdid things and was not suitable for riding. He obediently got into the carriage and let Luo Xiaoliu beat his legs as he stared at Liu Tie.

“Pfft, don’t try to show off if you’re weak. A civil servant learning long distance riding? Aren’t you asking for a beating?” Liang Qi said as he ate his tea.

Zuo Shaoqing replied with a fake smile: “This is called interest, how could a bachelor like you understand?”

Liang Qi choked on his food and coughed for a long time before he recovered. He then drank a cup of water and said, “How can men be interesting? What’s more, with Master Lu’s cold personality, he couldn’t utter a single word for a long time. “

“Only an unintentional person would entrust their feelings to flowery words. Even if you said it out loud, you wouldn’t understand.” Zuo Shaoqing shook his head and smiled. Then, he took a pear and started chewing on it.

Liang Qi wiped his hands and moved to Zuo Shaoqing’s side. He looked at Zuo Shaoqing up and down: “Looks like Director Zuo’s so-called interest came out from bed. Look at his shaking legs, tsk tsk…” Master Lu’s endurance must be very good! “

A tinge of red appeared on Zuo Shaoqing’s pale face, but he quickly replied calmly, “Naturally, it’s better than Lord Liang’s!”

His expression was too serious, and his tone was also very flat. If it wasn’t for the fact that there was still some lingering spring in his black eyes, Liang Qi would probably think that they were talking about a different topic.

He stared at Zuo Shaoqing and asked frivolously, “How do you know without competing?”

The corner of Zuo Shaoqing’s mouth curled up as he glanced at him, “With such a delicate body, how can you be compared with Master Lu?”

Luo Xiaoliu was frightened as he listened. He thought to himself, “Master San, is it really okay for you to flirt with other men so blatantly?”

Liang Qi looked through the thin curtain at Lu Zheng’s majestic figure outside. He quietly retreated back to his original position and sat down. He’s not an idiot to compare himself to a warlord!

Zuo Shaoqing was not bored with the long journey because he had Liang Qi, who had an eccentric personality. The two of them attacked each other occasionally and flattered each other, but most of the time they spent on their trip.

As for how to place the gunpowder on the warship, and how to make it work, the two of them drew out a rough draft map, and wrote down a book of feasible plans.
