Chapter 108 Golden Cone Line (19)
In the next few days, Zhang Xing kept saying that he was sick at home, and then he thought of a method to donate the silk silk, which attracted Taoist temples in the surrounding yards to visit and beg for alms frequently, but this did not delay his family's money and became more and more guilty.
There were really more and more. After three or four days, the imperial government formally started working, and all the shops were opened. The Bai family naturally sent everyone in the Chenliu Bai family manor to visit Lishi in Jiangdong.
Others usually get gold and horses. They hide the gold and silk at home, and keep two of the best horses themselves. They will be sold in Taipei for cash and exchanged them for cash. They will look clean.
But isn’t Zhang Baishou greedy?
Taking advantage of the convenience of work, he forced himself to blackmail according to high-end characters. He left two horses tied to the back porch to increase Qin Bao's workload, and left the rest to Yan Qing in Taipei to sell them. The key is that those calligraphy and painting treasures are well-known all over the world. Now they are left in his hands, they are just like hot potatoes.
There is no way, a person's reputation is great and he can't cover it. He will feel a little bit of a disaster if he does anything.
In addition, there was another job that should have been his, which was to deliver the prepared points for this trip to various places in Taichung, which saved everyone from jealousy and now it was a little inconvenient.
In the end, there was no choice but to invite Hu Yan to sell his old face. Zhu Shou gave him a calligraphy and painting, and Zhu Shou gave him a bag of beads... But at first, some people stopped selling their face, and they seemed to hear some news... In the end, Zhang Xing made a decision and carried the coral more than three feet high prepared for the Chief Cao Lin into the black tower in public, and then went to send it to the second time. The people took it down.
After all, Fulongwei belongs to the Xizhen Fushi. Although it is mostly dispatched and used directly by the palace, it is still Cao Lin's subordinate in essence. Cao Zhongcheng is naturally a master. He can complain about the positions in the Nanya, but he really won't be cautious with his subordinates.
In short, in the first half of the first lunar month, Zhang Xing just hid at home to avoid the limelight, and at most he studied the "Yi Jin Jing" with the visiting Li Ding.
But this is also a bit embarrassing, because the auxiliary methods of "Yi Jin Jing" are mostly used to practice after the twelve positive meridians are fully opened, and Zhang Sanlang just opened the ninth positive meridian after the New Year, and was just beginning to impact the tenth positive meridian. I want to feel the wonderful uses of "Yi Jin Jing" like the other party, but I can't help but lack strength...
Even because of this, Zhang Xing always felt that he was not keeping up with the task level, which made him feel a little unhappy.
But finally, with the resumption of work of major government agencies after the New Year and the process was completed, the court officially issued a relevant order through the Ministry of War to let Chen Ling go to the northwest to defend the desert. In the black tower of Jing'an, Cao Zhongcheng did not lose his temper and came to make things difficult for his subordinates. He still issued the order to inspect Huaibei according to his promise, so that Bai Yousi's inspection team and relevant personnel from the Ministry of War should handle the matters of Chen Ling and the Changjing Gang properly.
The order was issued, and the other members of the patrol team who made money were caught off guard, and then they were unhappy. Only Zhang Xing, a person who had been unhappy before, is now as amnesty, quickly donated the last two hundred pieces of silk to the Black Emperor Temple, and then called Yan Qing to hand over the blackmailed calligraphy and paintings to the other party, asking him to cash them on his behalf. That means it would be nothing to lose, but before he comes back, he must exchange it for silver or even gold.
"It's okay, I don't know if I should tell you something."
The day before departure, Li Ding came over. After hearing about the itinerary of the next day, he neither continued to guide his practice nor accompanied him to discuss government affairs, military affairs, customs, customs, customs, and geography. Instead, he mentioned an unexpected topic. "The Ministry of War, the Ministry of War who was going to Xuandian with you on this trip, is a very interesting person, and everyone in the Ministry of War knows it."
"How to say it?" Zhang Xing, who was gradually getting cheerful, was surprised for a moment.
"The main thing is that this person looks quite like you at first glance." Li Ding raised the words with dark circles on his eyes. "It's not the kind of person who looks like you, but the person who looks like you on the surface."
"What about it specifically?" Zhang Xing ignored the other party's strange description, but took it as a matter of course to develop some interest.
"First of all, I don't know my origin." Li Ding introduced seriously. "Anyway, I never say that I am from my origin like you, but I have read his origin text. It should be of witch blood and my mother has remarried... Because of this bloodline, although he worked very hard in his cultivation, he still couldn't rely on his cultivation. This is a bit like you."
Zhang Xing nodded, but he didn't care... He couldn't explain his origin clearly, and he obviously felt inferior; his cultivation was too late, but he actually turned on a cheating device, which was not the same as the other party's natural difficulty in urinating the meridians... But he also understood what Li Ding meant, that is, neither of them had the hope of family, nor did they have the hard line of cultivation to start the situation. They all rely on some skills to make a living.
"Then you perform very similarly in public departments. They are all very capable in documents and often use documents to explain them. Even though others know that he is playing with words, they can't argue with him when they come back to argue with him." Li Ding continued. "Then secretly gave money to these people to make friends... But his documents are really good, and he is clear about the settlement of accounts."
Zhang Xing finally felt it was interesting. Nowadays, there are people who play the trick of timely rain like themselves. Dongdu City is indeed too big.
"In the end, you are all strategy, scheming, and willing to make progress." Li Ding continued to speak seriously. "It is really knowledgeable and have vision, and can see things and people's backs clearly, and then all those who are not, can take advantage of the loopholes."
Zhang Xing became more and more interested, but he still remembered the other party's words: "Since it is so similar, why do you say it is similar on the surface?"
"The reason is simple." Li Ding finally laughed. "You are a hero, he is a Yin Xiong... It's like in Taolinyi that day. When you let me go, you really feel like you were talking to me and then let me go. He let me go, because he wanted to follow me to find a parody. When he got to the parody, he might not dare to scold me because he was concerned about the lives of the parody. For example, I guess he could think of the same idea as you when you became famous this time, but he would never dare to enter the mountain in person, or if he entered the mountain, he would have to take the lead in court, and he would only explain it in advance later."
Zhang Xing suddenly realized it, but unexpectedly he was not tired of it.
There is no way, the old saying that is almost rusty, the farmers are cunning and shameless, but the one who forces the farmers to that point is still a warrior... This person, because of his low origin and unparalleled cultivation, can only use all his methods to climb up, and he will inevitably be selfish and lose his temper.
In contrast, I always look at people and things with the arrogance of a time traveler, and I can't help but like to be pretentious and concise, so I fell in love with the tempers of noble children such as Bai Yousi, Sima Zheng and Li Ding.
On the other hand, Li Ding saw that Zhang Xinghun didn't care and didn't say much.
The next day, Zhang Xing and Qin Bao were preparing to go. Considering the existence of the second son of the Zuo family, after hesitating for a while, Zhang Baishou took the compass with him. When he was taking the compass, he saw the golden cone and simply wrapped it in satin and tied it to his waist. Then he went to the horse corridor to take the yellow horse, and went out again with Qin Bao, preparing to go up the Huai River.
Just at the east gate, Zhang Xing also saw the Ministry of War that Li Ding mentioned. He was standing in front of Bai Yousi with his hands behind his back, talking and laughing with Li Qingchen and Qian Tang. Bai Yousi was quite interested and watched the three of them laughing.
It was not until Zhang Xing arrived that the three of them stopped talking.
"Zhang Sanlang, this is Wang Daiji, the official of the Ministry of War." Li Qingchen remained silent. Qian Tang was in good spirits. I don't know if he had received Bai Yousi's silence. When he saw the visitor, he pointed and introduced it briefly. "I will work hard with us this time."
Wang Daiji quickly bowed and asked for words.
However, after hearing Li Ding's preview, Zhang Xing took the lead and took the lead first: "I have long admired the great name of King Yu of the Ministry of War in time. Today, I have seen my true face. Zhang Xing is honored."
Let’s talk about the fact that there were not twenty or fifteen members of the patrol team who had arrived here. They had just saluted Bai Yousi before, and sat casually in the market next to the main road outside the city gate. They only saw Zhang Xing coming, and then stood up again. At this moment, when they heard these words, they were all surprised. Almost everyone went to see the ignored Yuanwailang Wang.
Qian Tang and Li Qingchen were even more surprised and terrified.
As for Wang Daiji himself, he is only twenty-eight or nine years old this year, not as good as thirty, and is still young. He is wearing official uniforms and a small crown, and is also considered a handsome talent. His beard is obviously yellow, which seems to imply his witch bloodline.
But after all, he was a young man, otherwise he would not have been so happy to chat with Qian Tang and Li Qingchen. At this time, when people around him saw this, he could not hold back immediately and could only give in awkwardly:
"How dare you claim your name in front of Zhang Sanlang, Jing'an? Moreover, this timely rain... is the first time I heard it. Zhang Sanlang is sure that he was calling it wrong?"
"Of course you're not calling it wrong. It's normal that you haven't heard it. Because the name is called by someone else. The reason why you say this is because you often assisted officers who violated the law in the Ministry of War. They became famous in private." Zhang Xing threw down the yellow horse, hurried forward and held the other party's hand, and explained earnestly. "And to my knowledge, from the black tower of Jing'antai, because Qin Bao and I were going to Mangdang Mountain this time, we were ready to slightly promote two of us on the list of people, and the newly added third hundred is said to be the timely Rain King's Accumulation... Zhang Xing congratulated Wang Jiulang here first!"
Wang Daiji was stunned. He had just reacted for a while, but could only smile bitterly: "Zhang Sanlang, please give him a thumbs up!"
Zhang Xing also smiled bitterly: "Wang Jiulang, let me tell you that because of the previous incident in Mangdang Mountain, I was compared to Chen Gong in Nanya in Taichung, so my reputation was too high for a while. Even if I had to transfer the regular New Year gift during the New Year, I had to send it out to avoid disaster... On the matter of the people list, if it was my turn to get involved, how could I climb up?"
"So that's it." Wang Daiji sighed. "I'll tell you why you donated hundreds of pieces of silk? But in this way, we two seem to have some situations."
"Who said no?" Zhang Xing finally took the opportunity to reach out and hold the other party's hand. "Otherwise, why did you fall into the same situation at first sight? I'm not to hide it from Wang Jiulang, when I see you, I think you are my close brother..."
When Wang Daiji heard this, he shook his hands and sighed: "That's right, that's right!"
When Qin Bao heard this from behind, he could only turn around and scratch his chin of the spotted tumor beast, trying to prevent him from looking at the two of them. Qian Tang and Li Qingchen were also a little embarrassed. Only Bai Yousi, who had been sitting on the flagpole of the straw shed selling tea next to him, was watching this scene with interest.
For some reason, the flagpole did not fold, but was only floating in the wind under her feet.
After a while, after a while, Heishou and Hu Yan brought the newcomer Zhou Xingfan to get official documents from Jing'antai. The staff arrived, but everyone stopped hesitating, and they rode their horses and mules together, and headed up the Huai River again.
I think I came from there before, in the middle of winter, which was cold and dry. The key is that the itinerary was tight and I couldn't delay it for a while. And I had to deal with the bandits along the way and deal with it left and right. It was hard to deal with it. But now, from Dongdu to Huai, it is the New Year season after the New Year. Although it was only one month away, it was obviously a companionship with youth, especially from northwest to southeast, as if it was accelerating towards spring.
However, the biggest change is the mentality of communication.
When we came, we always passively solved the problem, because we were tired of dealing with it and couldn't do anything. When we went today, we were relying on the authority of the court and the sword of the Heavenly Sword in Bai Yousi's hand to take the initiative to attack, so we naturally felt refreshed.
In this case, on the 18th day of the first lunar month, when he arrived in Huaiyang and was only more than 100 miles away from Chengfu, Bai Yousi suddenly proposed to stay here for a day or two, and wait for the rest of the team to repair it, and no one would object to Chengfu.
But what is interesting is that they did not live in the official post, but lived in the manor of a Zhang official outside Wanqiu City, Huaiyang County. The official had a younger brother named Zhang Yue, who was Bai Yousi's brother-in-law. The former Luoyang Order, now it is said that he has gone to the Ministry of Personnel.
I can only say that since there are many relatives, it’s okay to eat and drink for free.
There is no need to say anything about bathing, socializing, and banquets during the day. At night, each person is generous. And at night, a wind suddenly rises. Zhang Xing leans down on the couch. He hears the spring breeze outside the room, and it is actually whistling. He is also surprised, but he is full of wine and food, so he is too lazy to get up to see it.
But he didn't fall asleep either.
On the contrary, he began to inexplicably recall his experiences since he came through time, and to think about his future paths... How to say it? So far, Zhang Xing has always felt that he was passively doing things and found things. He did it one by one due to morality, human feelings, and responsibilities, and never had his own plans and goals.
生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生生
There must be some feelings and ideas, and there must be some random arrangements and making friends with people, but that must be either a special plan or purpose, or the idea of rebellion is just a thought on your own path, but it was pressed by Bai Yousi.
This is really similar to the fact that I encountered all kinds of troubles when I went to Jiangdong this time and then went to solve them passively.
However, now that the trip to Jiangdong has ended, even Huainan has to take the initiative to return and finish off Chen Ling and the Whale Gang, but I don’t know when my life will take the initiative?
I don’t know which god, the Supreme, sent him for nothing?
I don’t know what main task is waiting for me?
Of course, one thing that must be admitted, or that one cannot pretend to be confused is that, at present, considering that in the world of great struggle, practitioners have a thousand miles a day and the supreme valorization is an ordinary world setting, then the most likely thing is that the Great Wei is like Qin in his own world, and the Sui Dynasty suddenly collapsed in the second life. An unprecedented great struggle appeared in front of the world. The barriers of the great master were broken, and the human, dragon and god danced together to make a big game of heaven, earth, human, dragon and dragon.
But even so, we have to consider who is playing chess, whose chess piece you are, and whether we should be willing to make chess pieces, etc.
Moreover, at that time, whether it is making chess pieces or playing chess, what is the guiding philosophy?
Should we continue a feudal central empire, or do our best to be a pioneer who is unable to do our best and let the people live a better life? That is, should we assist those who we should do or do it ourselves?
Just like this, after thinking about it, Zhang Xing felt that he was in vain... At present, he didn't even know where his body's hometown is. The people he knew and the people he thought were important were all in the Eastern Capital City. So as long as he had no ability and no determination to rebel, what could he do except lurk in Fulongwei, observe the situation and wait for Tianqing?
Only, as the saying goes, a real man can bend and stretch. Now he seems to have a smooth career, but he is essentially still bend under the head of Bai Yousi, a top nobleman, in order to seek peace, but he doesn't know if he can stretch his body in the future after he has been leaning for a long time.
Just as I was thinking, suddenly, a white light flashed outside the house, and a thunder suddenly burst out above my head after a moment.
Zhang Xing turned over and sat up in shock, and then woke up again. Spring thunder should have been like this... But he realized that he had been in this world for a whole year.
Thinking of this, he couldn't sleep at ease, so he put on his clothes, walked out of the room, and came to the corridor to blow the wind and listen to the thunder.
Unexpectedly, the lights swayed in the corridor, and it was clear that there was already someone here.
"Brother Wang Jiu."
Zhang Xing changed his smile without hesitation and reached out to hold the other person from afar.
"Zhang Sanlang." Wang Daiji also caught the other party's hand without any doubt. In the eaves of the corridor, the two of them were under the wind and thunder, as natural as under the moon. "Are you coming out to listen to thunder?"
"yes."
Zhang Xing looked at the top of his head, which was completely covered by the night, and sighed, but blurted out. "The thoughts are vast and the vast, and he listened to the thunder in silence."
Wang Daiji was slightly stunned, and then sighed: "What a poem! What a 'what is vast and the whole world is heard, and I listen to the thunder in silence'! It is really realistic about you and me at this moment, but I don't know what the whole poem is like?"
In fact, Zhang Xing was stunned as soon as he finished speaking.
There was no way, he actually didn't want to copy the poem, because he almost copied it in Jiangdong before, but this time, he was just quoting it casually.
However, the other party was anxious to ask, so he quickly closed his strange thoughts, thought carefully, and then answered them seriously: "There are two sentences above... called 'Wanjia Mom Noodles, I dare to sing and mourn.'"
Wang Daiji was slightly stunned.
And just like before, after the words were finished, Zhang Xing himself was stunned. Is it these two sentences before the thunder sound? But it was even more timely and appropriate.
PS: Happy to work, good night everyone.
Chapter completed!
