Chapter Twenty-Four

 Xu Zun went to work full of passion today, preparing to show off his talents in Dali Temple from today on. He was even prepared to work overtime, so as to set an example for Dali Temple officials, but in the end, not only did he not work overtime,

Instead, he left early.

After coming out of the palace, Xu Zun went home directly. He was so shocked that he had no idea of ​​work at all.

Compared with Zhang Fei, a foreigner, Xu Zun, a local, understands better what the "crime of deceiving the emperor" is!

He just wants to kill Zhang Fei now.

"Dad, why are you back?"

Xu Zhiqian, who has been relatively well-behaved recently, was pruning potted plants in the front yard, trying to be a lady, and was very surprised to find that her father, who was always hard at work, came home an hour early.

As soon as Xu Zun saw Xu Zhiqian, he suppressed his anger for a long time, rushed up, pointed at Xu Zhiqian and said: "It's all your fault, you stinky girl. If it weren't for you, dad would be so scared that he lost his mind today."

Xu Zhiqian was so scolded that her face was confused. She was stunned for a long time before she came to her senses. She suddenly felt aggrieved and said, "My daughter has not done anything to displease her father recently."

"No?"

Xu Zunchui glared at his beard and said: "Yesterday when Zhang San asked dad for help, why are you a girl so talkative? Daddy gave him a piece of official document to approve. This is not illegal. Those people in Erbi get official documents like this. It's called

You are nosy, I really am."

When it comes to the back part, I am really gnashing my teeth!

Xu Zhiqian is really not a gentle lady, and her personality is just like his father. She immediately argued: "Although this is not illegal, in the end, my father is using his position to seek benefits for Zhang San. This will harm my father."

reputation."

Xu Zun hummed: "So today the official took advantage of his position to approve a piece of official documents for Zhang San, and also called dad to inquire about it."

The more Xu Zhiqian listened, the more confused she became, and said: "Dad, what on earth are you talking about? Why does Zhang San let the official personally approve the official documents to him?"

Xu Zun covered his forehead, let out a long sigh, and said with lingering fear: "That boy is really cruel! He went to Kaifeng Mansion to surrender today, saying that he had committed the crime of deceiving the emperor."

"What?"

Xu Zhiqian was shocked.

Xu Zun glanced at his daughter and said, "You didn't expect it, did you?"

With that said, he told Xu Zhiqian the general process of the whole thing.

After hearing this, Xu Zhiqian was dumbfounded.

Oh my god!

Can this still be done?

Are you willing to do anything for a piece of official document?

If she had known this, she really would not have dissuaded Xu Zun.

Give it to him quickly!

It's really terrible.

"Dad, this person does things his own way, has a surly personality, and has evil intentions. If we continue to keep him in our house, something will happen sooner or later!" Xu Zhiqian said.

Xu Zun frowned and remained silent.

I have to say that this incident really scared him. No one would joke about "the crime of deceiving the emperor". However, he admired Zhang Fei's talent very much and wanted to ask Zhang Fei to help him improve the law. Moreover, he

He always believed that he was the one who brought Zhang Fei to the capital and that he had the obligation to take care of him, and he began to feel a little entangled in his heart.

Suddenly I heard a burst of singing coming from behind me.

"The back is real and the person is fake. There is no attachment. A hundred years ago, you were not you and I was not me."

The singing is filled with joy.

But the father and daughter were furious after hearing this.

Looking back, I saw Zhang Fei shaking his head and singing a ditty as he walked in.

"You brat, you're finally back."

Xu Zun roared immediately.

The singing stopped.

Zhang Fei saw the father and daughter standing in the courtyard and hurriedly walked over. Without waiting for Xu Zun to scold him, he took the initiative to bow his hands to Xu Zun and said: "If today's incident brings trouble to my benefactor, Zhang San is here."

Very sorry."

Xu Zun said excitedly: "Are you crazy? You would risk your life just for a piece of official document?"

Zhang Fei said sarcastically: "Although the lives of ordinary people are not valuable, they are still worth more than this official document. It is not a gamble."

"Isn't this even gambling?" Xu Zun pointed at Zhang Fei and said, "Do you think the crime of deceiving the emperor can be laughed at?"

Zhang Fei said seriously: "Although I haven't read any books, I know the stakes of the crime of deceiving the emperor, but I believe even more that no one would demolish the entire house just to catch a mouse.

It only looks serious, but it's actually very safe."

If something goes wrong with him, it will directly affect the Ayun case. Neither Song Shenzong nor Wang Anshi will allow the case to change again. They must protect Zhang Fei.

In fact, Xu Zun had already thought about this clearly on the way back. However, Zhang Fei's calmness at this time made him feel that his self-esteem was slightly hurt. He couldn't help but ask himself, am I not even as good as a boy?

And then again, this is not the first time Zhang Fei has played this way. He is actually a habitual offender. If he didn't have the courage, it would be difficult for him to win the lawsuit. But in the previous times, there was no way to face the enemy head-on.

However, he could have predicted why he chose to take the wrong approach, but this time Zhang Fei took the initiative, which is why he was so surprised and angry.

"mouse?"

Xu Zhiqian hummed softly: "You can be considered self-aware."

Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Thank you very much, Madam Xu, for the compliment."

Am I complimenting you?

Xu Zhiqian glared at Zhang Fei angrily.

Xu Zun coughed, stopping Xu Zhiqian from continuing, and said to Zhang Fei: "You have to remember one thing, I brought you to Bianjing, and I recommended you to fight that lawsuit. Whatever you do,

It will implicate me, so I don’t want this to happen again, and whenever it involves matters between the DPRK and China, you must discuss it with me first, and you cannot act without authorization. If it is reasonable, I will definitely support you."

Zhang Fei said solemnly: "Yes, I remember it."

Xu Zun nodded and said, "You go back to the house first."

Zhang Fei bowed his hands and walked towards his residence.

Seeing that Xu Zun still refused to let Zhang Fei move out, Xu Zhiqian felt dissatisfied. Suddenly she turned her eyes and said, "Dad, I'm going back to the house too."

Xu Zun waved his hand and said: "Go."

Xu Zhiqian passed a corner in the corridor and left Xu Zun's sight. She immediately walked out of the corridor and walked towards Zhang Fei's residence.

After walking for a while, I heard the strange singing again.

"Sorrow is real, tears are fake. There is no cause and effect in the first place. A hundred years later, there will be no you and no me."

Listening to the cheerful singing, Xu Zhiqian frowned slightly and thought to herself, how could he have any intention of repenting?

After catching up, she shouted: "Zhang San."

Zhang Fei turned around and said in surprise: "Ms. Xu."

Xu Zhiqian came to Zhang Fei, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I have something I want to talk to you about."

Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Mrs. Xu probably wants me to move out of the Xu Mansion."

Xu Zhiqian was stunned, "How do you know?"

Zhang Fei chuckled: "Other than that, there is nothing to talk about between us."

"Yes!" Xu Zhiqian nodded in agreement.

Zhang Fei nodded and said: "To be honest with you, Madam Xu, I don't want to live under anyone else's care. The reason why I am eager to get this official document is because I want to earn a living as soon as possible so that I can move out of the Xu Mansion."

Xu Zhiqian said: "Now you have obtained the official document."

Zhang Fei said: "Then I have to learn about the lawsuits so that I can find a living. It's just that I have just arrived in Bianjing and am not very familiar with everything here. I don't even know the road conditions. If Mrs. Xu can help,

, I believe it will get twice the result with half the effort.”

Xu Zhiqian said in disbelief: "You want me to help you?"

There was a wave of frustration in her heart. Can't you feel my hostility?

Zhang Fei tilted his head slightly and said, "Ms. Xu, you can also think that this is to drive me out of here as soon as possible."

Xu Zhiqian said immediately: "I will take you there tomorrow."

Zhang Fei smiled and said, "Thank you very much."

In fact, Zhang Fei doesn't want to continue living in Xu's house. Although he can't leave Xu Zun for the time being, it doesn't mean he has to live in Xu Zun's house, especially since the hostess doesn't like him yet.

But he didn't just go out and find a job, he wanted to start his own business. Although the official documents were settled, he still had to understand the market, what the regulations were, how much the rent was, etc.

So this has to be a process, and it also takes some time. Zhang Fei was worried that Xu Zhiqian thought that he was deliberately stalling for time and would not leave, so he simply asked her to come with him.

Anyway, Xu Zhiqian wishes he would leave as soon as possible. The demands of both parties are completely consistent, so this cooperation will be a natural outcome!

If you have an acquaintance with you, you can get twice the result with half the effort!

Kill two birds with one stone.

The next day.

In front of the Xu Mansion.

Zhang Fei raised his head and looked up at Xu Zhiqian, who was riding on the horse. He saw that she was wearing a purple men's suit with narrow sleeves and black edges, and a white curtain hat that covered half of her face. She looked so heroic.

He lowered his head and looked at the cute little donkey in front of him. He suddenly put his arms on the donkey's back, raised his head and said to Xu Zhiqian: "Ms. Xu, do you know that in the eyes of men, women should not ride horses, but ride on them?"

donkey."

Xu Zhiqian glanced at him and said, "Why?"

Zhang Fei gestured with his hands and said: "Because the horse's back is wider."

Xu Zhiqian smiled contemptuously: "I heard from my father that you are so eloquent that even Grand Scholar Sima was defeated by you. I thought you would say something profound to make me willingly give up my horse to you. Now I see

, it’s nothing more than that!”

After saying that, she pinched her legs with her slender legs and walked forward slowly.

Very stable!

The maid Qingmei and a follower followed closely behind.

"I've seen those long legs of yours a long time ago. There's no need to show off. Besides, I'm not going to ride your horse. Driving a Ferrari in the busy city is either pretentious or stupid. Isn't that a nice little donkey? No.

According to the handsome guy, you will suffer the consequences after marriage."

Zhang Fei pouted relentlessly, mounted the cute little donkey, and followed.

Relatively speaking, the Northern Song Dynasty inherited the Tang Dynasty. Although the social atmosphere was not as good as that of the Tang Dynasty, it was still relatively open. Many women were seen traveling on the road riding horses or donkeys. Boats were shuttled in the rivers, and women could be heard faintly.

Laughter.

In many stalls on the street, there are also many women rolling up their sleeves, exposing their white arms, and greeting customers.

After walking for about half an hour, Xu Zhiqian took Zhang Fei to the east gate of Xiangguo Temple.

This place is really crowded and lively.

Even forcing Xu Zhiqian to dismount, Zhang Fei quickly got off the donkey quilt. After all, he learned the second riding skill in his life on the way here from Dengzhou, and his skills are not very skilled yet.

If there is a brutal collision, the lawsuit will be filed.

Suddenly he heard bursts of piano music and laughter coming from the east. Zhang Fei looked for the sound and couldn't help but feel refreshed. However, he saw many women dancing coquettishly in the attic at the entrance of the alley. Some women were even sitting by the window chatting with men.

Laughing!

"Is this the touch singing of the Song Dynasty? There is touch singing at the door of this temple. We monks in the Song Dynasty are really happy! No wonder the only monk I know from the Song Dynasty is called Monk Hua."

Zhang Fei couldn't help but feel the urge to become a monk. Suddenly he saw Xu Zhiqian walking towards the intersection. He was stunned and hurriedly caught up, "Where are you going?"

Xu Zhiqian raised her head towards the street entrance and said, "The bookstores are all concentrated on that street."

Do you think I'm blind? It's obviously a place for fireworks. Not to mention in the daytime, I can recognize them even if they turn into ashes! This is a man's sixth sense. Zhang Fei expressed doubts: "Are those places bookstores?"

"The bookstore is inside." After saying that, Xu Zhiqian continued to walk forward.

What the hell? A temple? A bookstore? A brothel? Is there really such a weird combination? She brought me here because I was handsome, and then sold me as a male prostitute, right? Zhang Fei felt a little nervous.

, hesitated for a moment, but still followed him.

That might not be a kind of livelihood!
