Chapter 393 Officials Protecting Each Other
When Liu Rushi said this, both Wang Ying and Chen Yuanyuan looked at her with suspicion. "You've always been the most opposed to your enemy sleeping with a girl? What's wrong with you today? Why are you actually encouraging it?"
Liu Rushi explained softly, "You all know what enemies are like. Why would he do something without benefit? Although Shen Zizhen is only a county magistrate, he has mentors, classmates, colleagues, and so on behind him. Offending one official in the officialdom is actually offending a group of people. This is why people believe that officials protect each other. Sometimes it's not that officials protect each other, but that they don't want to offend so many people."
Liu Rushi continued, "And this matter is not limited to Gaoling County. According to Qi Siyan, the whole of Shaanxi is probably the same. If our enemy punishes Shen Zizhen because of this, he will be making an enemy of the entire Shaanxi officialdom."
Wang Ying smiled wryly and said, "Is your enemy afraid of offending people? He has offended all the civil and military officials in the court."
“Why would someone make an enemy for no reason? He went to war with all the officials back then in order to negotiate peace. Now, only if he sleeps with Qi Siyan will he deal with a corrupt official like Shen Zizhen who only cares about immediate gains,” Liu Rushi said softly.
Wang Ying stopped arguing. She understood Wang Wenzhou; her nemesis would do anything to sleep with a beautiful woman.
However, Wang Wenzhou's reaction was beyond Wang Ying's expectations.
Wang Wenzhou said seriously, "Brother Liu, this is your mistake! Xiao Yanyan is your daughter, and her father is your father-in-law. She really has nothing to do with me."
"Young Master Wang, such a beautiful girl, don't you want to sleep with her?" Liu Ru asked, pointing at Qi Siyan.
"Brother Liu, you're not a man, of course you're not afraid! Little Yan Yan is cursed, whoever sleeps with her dies. Do you want our Liu Xiaohua to lose her father?" Wang Wenzhou didn't believe that a white tiger couldn't be slept with; to him, a white tiger was a top-tier treasure. He pretended not to want to agree, just to get some more benefits from Liu Rushi.
Liu Rushi patted Qi Siyan on the shoulder and pointed at Wang Wenzhou, saying, "Sister, if you want to seek justice for Father, you can ask Young Master Wang for help. He can definitely do it."
Upon hearing this, Qi Siyan immediately knelt down and pleaded, "Young master, I know I am an unlucky person and cannot serve you! But as long as you seek justice for my father, I will not take a single penny and will serve you like a slave for the rest of my life."
"Little Yan Yan, we can't do this! You're forcing me to my death! How can I afford to offend the county magistrate?" Wang Wenzhou quickly refused.
"Oh dear! Young Master Wang, you're afraid of a mere seventh-rank official? Not long ago, you forced all the civil and military officials to wet their pants! Are you so scared by the assassination attempt that you don't even want to be a man anymore?" Liu Rushi mocked.
“Young Master Wang is not a coward. In my heart, Young Master Wang has always been a true man!” Wang Ying said in perfect unison.
Having spent these past few days together, Wang Ying knew that to live comfortably around her nemesis, she had to cultivate a good relationship with Liu Rushi. That's why she cooperated with Liu Rushi in putting Wang Wenzhou down.
"Sister-in-law, please don't make things worse!" Wang Wenzhou said with difficulty, "I'm here to do something important! If I offend all the officials in Shaanxi, how can I get things done?"
“Sister! It’s a pity General Wu isn’t here. If he were, he would definitely have been able to get justice for your father.” Chen Yuanyuan said with a smile, her tone clearly showing admiration when she mentioned General Wu.
Wang Wenzhou smiled bitterly to himself. These three aunties got along very well and had actually formed a strategic alliance.
“Babies, babies! Don’t you know who I am? I’d die for my babies! But this girl isn’t my baby,” Wang Wenzhou explained.
"My darling, I promise you, I'll allow you to take her as a concubine, is that alright?" Liu Rushi had no choice but to use her trump card.
"Brother Liu, please spare me! Sleeping with her will kill me!" Wang Wenzhou said with a wry smile.
"Bang!" Liu Rushi slammed her hand on the table angrily and asked in a cold voice, "Wang Wenzhou, what exactly do you want before you'll take action?"
Wang Wenzhou said with a smile, "Babies, babies, I don't dare to sleep with her, but you can sleep with her!"
"Get out!" Liu Rushi said irritably, "We're both women, how can we sleep with her?"
Wang Wenzhou said with a smile, "Ruru, you can use your hands and mouths! Back when Ruirui slept with that little vixen Mu Qingyun, she slept very beautifully!"
At this point, Wang Wenzhou felt a little sad. Rui Rui had died for him, but the murderer was still unknown.
"Sigh..." Liu Rushi sighed. This darling is really capable of doing anything crazy!
"Alright! I agree!" Liu Rushi truly couldn't stand Shen Zizhen, this selfish and incompetent official who cared nothing for the people. How could such officials allow the common people to live a happy life? Wherever they were, they brought disaster to the people of that place.
"Great!" Wang Wenzhou stood up excitedly and said, "I'm going to take care of this!"
"Little Yan Yan, come give me a kiss!" Wang Wenzhou said with a smile.
Wang Ying quickly said, "Qi Siyan, hurry up, your husband wants to kiss you!"
Qi Siyan was completely bewildered by the conversation between Wang Wenzhou and the others. The relationships between these people were such a mess! One minute they were calling him Brother Liu, the next Young Master Wang, then Sister-in-law, then Husband. Their way of addressing each other was so confusing.
Qi Siyan quickly stood up and kissed him. She couldn't understand why she felt that the young master, whose tongue was swirling in her mouth, would surely be able to get justice for her father.
After the kiss, Qi Siyan blushed, lowered her head, and held the hem of her clothes, feeling shy and embarrassed.
Wang Wenzhou said with a smile, "Little Yan Yan, you need to practice your kissing skills. Brother Liu, you should quickly teach Little Yan Yan your techniques, and I'll figure out how to help my father-in-law get justice."
Liu Rushi shook her head with a wry smile. She really couldn't do anything about her nemesis. Now that she needed his help, she had no choice but to listen to him and do as he said.
Liu Rushi held Qi Siyan's small hand and kissed her while telling her how to kiss.
Wang Wenzhou said loudly, "Jian Fengyu, come in for a moment."
Jian Fengyu, who was on guard outside the door, quickly entered the room, cupped his hands, and asked, "My lord, what are your orders?"
Wang Wenzhou thought for a moment and said, "Immediately send someone to inform Wang Qiang to lead his troops back to Gaoling. Do not enter the city. Find a place to hide outside the city. When he sees our signal arrow, he should immediately lead his troops into the city."
"Yes!"
"Wait a minute, I'm not finished yet!" Wang Wenzhou continued, "Prepare a dozen or so sets of clothes that poor old people would wear. I'm going to carry my father-in-law's coffin to the county magistrate and demand an explanation!"
Jian Fengyu shook his head with a wry smile. "Lord Wang, you've already married another wife so quickly? Lord Wang is going crazy, and Shen Zizhen is going to be in trouble!"
"Get it done right away!" Wang Wenzhou waved his hand, signaling Jian Fengyu to leave.
"Your subordinate obeys!" Jian Fengyu pushed open the door and came out.
Wang Wenzhou said with a smile, "How's your studying, little Yan Yan? Have me a drink!"
Liu Rushi held Qi Siyan's small hand and comforted her, "Sister is only doing this for your own good. Don't be fooled by this rascal's usual unruly behavior; he treats his wives and concubines exceptionally well. Quickly feed him some wine. Don't be shy; you'll get used to it after a while."
Although Qi Siyan didn't know Wang Wenzhou and the others' true identities, she was certain that Wang Wenzhou was an official of the imperial court. She was willing to do anything, even be his concubine, to seek justice for her father and prevent his wrongful death.
