394 The Past!
Zhuo Lin's life is a legendary legend for women of this era. She was born into the Sheng family of the famous southern family. Although the Sheng family had already set sunset when Zhuo Lin was born, as the saying goes, a thin camel is bigger than a horse, and the Sheng family is just declining, and it is still far from dying.
At that time, the name of Luochuan Sheng was just enough to make people look up to the point. The Sheng family had two daughters in Zhuo Lin's generation, namely the eldest daughter Sheng Zhuoyan and the second daughter Sheng Zhuolin. The two sisters were only four years apart and had a very good relationship since childhood. However, unlike the dignified and virtuous eldest daughter, Zhuo Lin was a little rebellious since childhood.
This rebellion does not mean how naughty she is, but that her ideas are always incompatible with a century-old family like the Sheng family.
Sheng Zhuoyan has been learning piano, chess, calligraphy and painting since she was a child. She is a famous talent and beauty in Luochuan. However, Zhuo Lin, who is four years younger than her, can only be regarded as having some knowledge of these talents. It is not because she is not as smart as her sister, but because she always tries to skip classes. Then she secretly hides outside the class of the boys in the Sheng family and eavesdrops, or hides in the study of the master of the Sheng family to read books.
At that time, there were already public primary schools and middle schools, but Zhuo Lin had never been to primary schools. Even for only two years, he was admitted to Anlan Women's University far away in Yongcheng at the age of fifteen. At first, the Sheng family did not object too much to her to go to Anlan University because it was a popular trend at that time, and it was not a bad thing to go to Anlan University, but it could be regarded as a very promising resume.
Zhuo Lin entered school at the age of fifteen and graduated early at the age of seventeen. During her time at school, she not only had excellent subjects, but even fully mastered two foreign languages.
It was in this year that the Sheng family was about to get engaged to Zhuo Lin, and the partner they chose was a match for the Sheng family. However, this matter was fiercely opposed by Zhuo Lin. After failing to communicate with the family, Zhuo Lin escaped from the Sheng family and the other families who were preparing to get engaged to express their position.
Then she went north alone, and with the help of the Long family, she changed her name and surname to enter Beijing University for further study.
Although Zhuo Lin went to college in Yongcheng, she and Governor Fu actually met in the capital. At that time, Governor Fu was already a young talent with a little fame and strength. When he was doing business in the capital, he met Zhuo Lin and pursued him crazy at first sight.
Zhuo Lin was also famous at that time. In order to avoid the Sheng family, Zhuo Lin was actually quite low-key in the past two years. But the Fu Jun was not the middle-aged and fat governor Fu Jun, who had not yet established, was also tall and handsome. In fact, an extraordinary hero. Moreover, his troops were not weak at that time, and he had a lot of friendship with Prince Long Yuemu, Deputy Chief Lu, and even the Emperor, which naturally attracted people's attention.
Only then did people realize that there was such a woman in the capital who valued both beauty and talent. Fortunately, the young man who was planning to get engaged to Zhuo Lin was already married at that time, so there was no need to avoid it too much.
Everyone has a love for beauty, so naturally there will be no only Governor Fu who pursues Zhuo Lin.
However, in the end, Zhuo Lin chose Fu Governor Jun. The two got married successfully after half a year of falling in love. However, the Sheng family did not agree with their marriage. In the view of the Sheng family, although Fu Governor Jun was a small force, he was born in a turbulent world and was in danger of danger. Not to mention that the Fu family itself is just a small family of businessmen, so how can they deserve the Sheng family, which has been a scholarly official for generations?
But Zhuo Lin had decided to marry Governor Fu. The old lady of the Sheng family drove Zhuo Lin out of the Sheng family in anger and claimed that there would be no Sheng Zhuo Lin in the Sheng family again in the future.
After two years of peaceful life, Zhuo Lin stayed in Beijing to teach at the Beijing University, and Governor Fu often traveled between the Beijing and Yongcheng.
It was not until... because of Mrs. Fu's insertion that the two suddenly divorced and the marriage ended.
In the study, Leng Sa leaned against Fu Fengcheng's arms and looked at the documents that Xu Shaoming had just sent together, "The Sheng family was originally going to engage in Ms. Zhuo's partner was Zhang Xiang?" Leng Sa said in surprise.
Fu Fengcheng shook his head and said, "No, Zhang Xiang and his late wife were engaged since childhood and got married very early. They are the second master of the Zhang family and Zhang Zuo."
Leng Sa looked carefully and it was true.
"I remember Huizhi said that the second master of the Zhang family is in poor health." Leng Sa frowned.
Fu Fengcheng nodded and said, "Yes, when Mr. Zhang was nine years old, he slid into the pond in winter and injured his body. He had another strange disease in the early years and had not been out of it for many years."
Leng Sa frowned and was puzzled, "The Sheng family betrothed his daughter to a person in poor health?" If it were a person like Zhang Bi, he would naturally be a good match. But the Sheng family knew that Zhang Erye was in poor health. If he really loved his daughter, why would he betrothed his daughter to the Zhang family?
Fu Fengcheng said calmly: "The Sheng family married the eldest daughter to the Wei family. If it were placed a hundred years ago, the Wei family would not be qualified to marry the concubine of the Sheng family, let alone the eldest daughter. This is why the Sheng family did not agree to Ms. Zhuo marry the old man. At that time, the Fu family was not qualified to marry the Sheng family's daughter."
The Wei family still has money at least, but the Fu family doesn’t even have much money.
No, it should be said that Tujun Fu, who was still in the entrepreneurial period, was actually so poor.
Leng Sa couldn't help but tsk, "No wonder Ms. Zhuo is going to run away."
Moreover, Ms. Zhuo did not escape after getting engaged or before getting married. She ran away before getting engaged, which can be said to be quite decisive.
Leng Sa pulled the documents and continued reading.
After Zhuo Lin and Tujun Fu divorced, they followed the school's visiting team abroad. After three months, they returned to the capital and lived in the Long family's mansion in the capital.
The second month after the palace transformation, Zhuo Lin returned to Luochuan and officially broke up with the Sheng family and went abroad to study again. Two years later, he went directly to the Northern Four Provinces when he came back from abroad. Zhuo Lin stayed in the Northern Four Provinces for more than 20 years.
Zhuo Lin has done a lot of work in the past twenty years, worked as a reporter and editor in the newspaper, worked as an ordinary employee in the company, and worked as an interpreter for foreigners. When Long Governor just conquered the four northern provinces, she worked as an assistant to Long Governor and assisted in affairs. Later, she went to the local area and started from a small assistant to the county magistrate to the governor of Yunzhou.
Looking at the thick resume in front of him, Leng Sa couldn't help but feel extremely admiration in her eyes.
Not to mention this era, it is rare for women who were as independent and strong as Zhuo Lin in her previous life.
Especially after Zhuo Lin entered the officialdom, An Xia's officialdom was definitely not friendly to women, and even if she had the Dragon Commander behind her, it would be useless.
If Zhuo Lin is just a assistant to Long Xiao, even if she has great power, then no one will pay attention to it. Because no matter how capable she is, in the eyes of those men, she is just a vase beside Long Xiao. Relying on Long Xiao's favor and act recklessly, it is not uncommon for such a beauty to suffer from ancient times.
However, once Zhuo Lin wants to truly enter the officialdom and compete with them, Zhuo Lin will become their enemy, the enemy of all of them.
No matter how hard she worked or how high she achieved, these men would only think that Zhuo Lin was taking over the special relationship with Long Xiao. The higher the Zhuo Lin's status, the more unbearable the rumors. Later, even Long Xiao could not withstand everyone's pressure and then lift Zhuo Lin up.
As a result, Yunzhou became a place where officials in the northern four provinces made their political achievements.
Anyway, even if a pig is the governor, as long as the second-level chief is Zhuo Lin, there is no need to worry that the pig has no political achievements. Zhuo Lin has been the second-level chief in Yunzhou for twelve years, sent away six governors, and turned Yunzhou from the poorest place in the northern four provinces to the second-ranked state in the northern four provinces.
Until this year, everyone knew that they would not be promoted, but they were afraid that the entire Anxia would laugh at the men in the northern four provinces, so Zhuo Lin was successfully promoted to governor.
"It's really amazing." Leng Sa couldn't help but sigh, "The Supervisor is really losing." He didn't want such a talented and beautiful wife, but he married a brainless lady like Mrs. Fu...
Leng Sa felt that compared to Zhuo Lin, she was really a bit humble as a modern person.
Fu Fengcheng nodded and said, "It's really amazing." Young Master Fu's eyes were much more difficult to admire. Fu Fengcheng rarely really admired someone. I have to say that Zhuo Lin can definitely be considered one.
Leng Sa held his chin and said, "But... I can't tell what it has to do with the so-called mastermind behind the scenes. In Ms. Zhuo's life, there are no suspicious people. Governor Long? Prince An? Xiang Zhang? Governor Song? Chief Lu?"
Governor Long is Zhuo Lin's cousin. Even if there is no such relationship, Governor Long has any ideas. It will be almost thirty years since he was not indifferent. Prince An seemed to be interested in Zhuo Lin. The two had a good relationship, but at that time, Prince An himself could not protect himself, so how could he have time to do something?
Zhang Bi, Governor Song, Deputy Chief Lu, Leng Sa shook his head, no matter how he thought about it, he felt something was wrong.
"Zhang Zuo." Fu Fengcheng pointed to a name on the document and said.
Leng Sa turned his head and thought, "Huizhi said he was in very bad health." Leng Sa remembered Zhang Huizhi's expression when she said that her second uncle's condition was yes. Can a person who became ill like that... can he really make trouble? And...
"You don't think that Zhang Zuo hated Ms. Zhuo and Ms. Zhuo was unwilling to get engaged, so he took revenge and wanted to provoke Ms. Zhuo and the Governor divorced. Even because of hatred of the Governor, he did so many things? Ms. Zhuo was not engaged to him, but he got married soon."
Fu Fengcheng shook her head while playing with her slender fingers, "Not everyone will take love very seriously. He should have never met Ms. Zhuo before."
"So." Leng Sa said, "It would be even more impossible."
Fu Fengcheng sighed helplessly, "I don't mean that."
Leng Sa was stunned for a moment, and suddenly a flash of inspiration in his mind, "You mean... provoking the discord between Ms. Zhuo and Governor Fu is not his main purpose, it may be just to do it casually? Other things are the key points? But he seems to hate you very much, target you very much."
Fu Fengcheng said, "If I really hate someone, I will eradicate the roots when he has not yet resisted."
Leng Sa shook his finger and said, "It seems that Mr. Fu has never really hated anyone."
Fu Fengcheng raised his eyebrows slightly, "What do you say?"
Leng Sa smiled and said, "If you really hate someone to the core, how could you be willing to let him die immediately? If a person dies, he will be completely destroyed. Who else can you hate if nothing is gone?"
Mr. Fu didn't agree, "I naturally don't need to hate me if someone dies."
Leng Sa was a little surprised. After looking at Mr. Fu up and down for a while, she couldn't help but sigh, "I didn't expect that Mr. Fu was actually such an upright person." She always thought that Mr. Fu had a psychological problem and thought that he was really wronged. Mr. Fu was simply the most upright and straightforward. It was not the same method as those perverted mentally distorted perverts.
Mr. Fu looked at his wife speechlessly, "What do you mean?"
Leng Sa blinked and said, "If you don't feel that hating someone, you have to torture him and destroy him, until he dies miserably, tell him that his life has been just a sad joke. Is this even more satisfying?"
Fu Fengcheng shook his head, "I don't think so."
Leng Sa asked curiously, "Why?"
Fu Fengcheng said: "If I spend a long time to torture someone, will I be happy while tortureing that person? Why don't I kill him directly and forget about this and find other people and things that really make me happy?"
"..." It seems to make sense?
Master Leng quickly abandoned this entangled question and said, "Okay, maybe someone will do this. But I don't think the mastermind behind this will have the same idea as you."
"Make a bet?" Fu Fengcheng raised his eyebrows slightly and Leng Sa looked at him with interest, "What are you betting on?"
Fu Fengcheng said: "Just bet... does this matter have anything to do with the mastermind behind the scenes, and... did he do it casually or deliberately?"
Leng Sa thought for a moment and reached out, "It's a matter of connection, I'm just calculating and betting!"
"If you have something to do, just do it."
The two palms clashed with each other, and a crisp sound made the bet.
The special prison is located in an inconspicuous corner of the capital. Although the place is inconspicuous, it is close to the military office building. There are countless secret whistles inside and outside, and it is no exaggeration to say that the guards are strictly guarded.
In the morning, Fu Fengcheng and Leng Sa came outside the prison gate, and immediately the prison head who had been waiting there was personally welcomed them in.
"I received a notice from Mr. Fu and a notice from the military headquarters yesterday. Are you going to interrogate Xing Wei and Gong Sihe? I have asked someone to mention these two people." The person in charge accompanied the two and said while walking in.
Fu Fengcheng said lightly, "I heard that Mrs. Xing was assassinated in prison a few days ago?"
The person in charge suddenly froze and laughed dryly, "This... it is indeed someone who is bribed by someone for money. We have investigated and dealt with seriously. Please don't worry, Mr. Fu, this will never happen again."
Leng Sa smiled and said, "Please don't mind. He is not dissatisfied with you. But... Mrs. Xing is just temporarily detained here and has not been convicted yet. If someone dies and finds out that she is innocent in the end, I'm afraid you can't explain it to the outside world. After all, Mrs. Xing is quite famous in the capital."
The person in charge said repeatedly, and diligently led people into a room and left alone as a companion and left quickly, as if there was a monster in the room that wanted to eat him in one bite.
Leng Sa wandered around the room with only one table and a few chairs, and said thoughtfully, "There will be no eavesdropping devices in this room, right?"
The staff next to him quickly smiled and said, "Mrs. Young lady is overly concerned. The walls here are thickened and soundproof. As long as you don't shoot inside, you will definitely not hear them outside. As for eavesdropping... there will be nothing."
Leng Sa nodded, reached out and knocked on the wall without saying a word.
After a moment, the back door was opened from outside, and Xing Wei and Gong Sihe were taken in.
It's been almost a month since they disappeared. Xing Wei and Gong Sihe looked neatly dressed as if they didn't suffer any pain.
But his face was paler than before, especially Xing Wei... After being detained for so long, he could only be forced to be without makeup in prison. Xing Wei not only looked pale and haggard, but also finally had the age that an ordinary woman of her age should have. Even the faint wrinkles at the corners of her eyes were clearly visible.
What Leng Sa pays most attention to is that this pair of teachers and students who were once close seemed to be a little more alienated between their eyebrows.
They themselves may not have noticed it, but Leng Sa, who is outsiders, can tell the difference at a glance.
The person who sent the two people in and the person who were left to accompany them quickly retreated, and there were only four people left in the room.
Xing Wei now has a fear of Leng Sa that penetrates into her bones. No matter who is suffering setbacks and tortured one after another in the same person, she will have such fear. So Xing Wei couldn't help but tremble slightly when she saw Leng Sa and took a step back without a trace.
Fu Fengcheng and Leng Sa naturally saw her movement. Leng Sa waved to the two without caring about it and said, "Mrs. Xing, Miss Gong, I haven't seen you for a long time, so I'm fine?"
Gong Sihe gritted her teeth and said in a deep voice, "Not as young lady."
Leng Sa held Fu Fengcheng's arm in a good mood and said, "Of course it's not as good as me. Miss Gong thinks everyone can be as lucky as me?"
Gong Sihe couldn't help but turn her head to look at her when she heard this. Leng Sa seemed to be becoming more and more proud.
His chin was slightly raised proudly, but he sighed, "Look, I abandoned the little trash Fu Xiaosi, but got the heroes of the people like Mr. Fu. An Xia, the south and north dragons. Look at you, there is someone in your heart, and you have to work hard to pretend that you are a bad woman who loves vain and likes to destroy other people's families and ruins your reputation. Now even the Gong family refuses to recognize you? If the person you like is as young and handsome as Mr. Fu, it's fine, but... you have to compete with such an old woman who can compare you with every place. Tsk... It's so miserable!"
