Chapter 439: It’s easy to change the heart of an old friend, but it’s easy to change the heart of an old friend.
"The star of destiny twinkles?"
Inside Dachang Mansion.
There is a manor called Nanlin.
nowadays.
This manor is remarkable because it houses the most powerful man in the world today.
Dali Dynasty.
The eighth son of Emperor Li.
Shun Wang.
Fu Jizhen.
But today.
King Shun was not in a good mood.
Because he stared blankly at the sky, only to see the destiny star disappearing and appearing in the sky.
In Taoist terms.
This is called the twinkling star of fate, which is a very bad omen.
"how so."
"Didn't Master calculate that if there is a chance in the Great Li Realm, I should take it?"
"Very good."
"How come the fate star suddenly flashes, suggesting that I am about to suffer a fateful disaster?"
God's will.
It cannot be ignored.
Among them, the main star of the Big Dipper is dead, and next to the sixth star of the Big Dipper and the Wuqu star, there is also a death omen star among the six auxiliary stars of Wuqu.
Death Star.
Also known as the destiny star.
The twinkling of this star means that a great calamity has befallen the body, and one bad thing is that the body will die and the Tao will disappear.
Look at the twinkling star above your head.
Fu Jizhen frowned.
Count it up.
It has been more than twenty years since I was reincarnated in this world.
Over the years, he has lived in a simple way, pretending to be stupid, and for this he has earned the reputation of being a submissive king.
Now it's hard to survive until I leave the palace and become a feudal lord, and the dragon enters the sea.
Before you have time to show your talents, you get a warning from your life star, and you will be at a loss.
"Something's wrong."
"I'm being watched."
"who is it?"
"That old bat that escaped?"
Fu Jizhen walked from side to side.
He had been hiding well all these years, until he came to the land of Jiangnan, and when he was so proud, he forgot about it and was hit by the bat demon.
It just shouldn't be.
Isn't that old bat a lackey of the Taoist clan?
Daomen and Dali are not willing to deal with each other. With such a handle, they should benefit from him anyway. There is no reason to kill him.
"Could it be that it's not Daomen, but one of my brothers?"
The more Fu Jizhen thought about it, the more possible it became.
It is not an exaggeration to say that his identity is a rare commodity for the Taoist sect.
But for the other princes, it was like a light on their backs.
Even if he was crowned king with the word "shun".
He always hid his clumsiness in the palace and was nicknamed the Foolish King.
But no matter what, he was also born as a prince, and this background meant that there was a bloody storm that could not be avoided.
"Here comes someone."
Think of this.
Whether it was the Taoist sect that wanted to attack him, or a certain prince had murderous intentions towards him.
Fu Jizhen didn't even think it was appropriate to have a head-on confrontation.
The best policy is to avoid the edge temporarily.
Fortunately.
In recent years, he has transformed into a blood demon, devouring living beings and practicing demonic skills, and it's not all just messing around.
Cats have cat brothers, rats have rat brothers.
He was running rampant as a blood demon, but he also made friends with some right-wing experts. However, in the past, he was worried about his identity and had few contacts. Now that his life star is twinkling and a disaster is approaching, he can't care anymore.
"Your Highness, do you want to go out?"
I heard Fu Ji really calling.
There are waiters on the left and right coming forward to serve you.
"Hang up the free sign."
"If anyone asks, just say that I heard that Shunzhou has many famous mountains, and I traveled to the mountains and rivers."
Fu Jizhen didn't hesitate.
Because he knew very well that he was not powerful in the Dali Dynasty. Most of the civil and military courtiers who had come to serve in the past few years and wanted to ignite Lengzao were low-ranking and low-ranking officials who had no ambition.
Now that even he feels in danger, it's definitely not possible to count on these people.
As for being blessed by the local state capital.
to be honest.
Fu Jizhen never thought about it.
Because he had just arrived, he didn't know who belonged to each prefecture and county.
Can't say.
Among this group of parents and officials, there are also members of his group of brothers.
It would be better not to go.
If you go, you will be like a sheep entering a tiger's mouth.
the next day
"Brother, this Dachang Mansion is a good place."
"The river flows through the city in all directions, giving it an impressive sight of a city on the water. Compared to going to the countryside, it is indeed a different scene."
Sitting on the bow.
As the boat passed around the city, Zhang Heng looked at both sides of the river with relish.
compared with him.
Zhang Buxiu can't do it anymore.
He had a troubled look on his face, and he was obviously still complaining that Zhang Heng didn't even say hello, but just came to his door and made a surprise attack on him.
This is not a surprise.
It's fright.
He is now the eldest son of the Zhang family, a grain merchant in Dachang Prefecture, and a scholar who reads books from sages.
What Anding County?
Tiandao Sect.
Zhangjia, Xiashan Village.
Not familiar at all.
"Brother."
"What are you doing with your face? Are you imitating a donkey? You want to make me happy?"
Zhang Heng hugged the little tiger and smiled half-heartedly: "Actually, no matter what identity you use or what you do, once you have a purpose, you can't hide it from others."
"That is to say, I haven't joined King Shun's camp yet. If you join, how long can you hide your identity?"
"You are smart and others are not stupid either."
"My second brother told me before that there were roosters and dog robbers in Anding County. There were so many eucalyptus stolen and lost that we couldn't finish them all."
"But when it comes to murderous eucalyptus, it usually takes less than three days to break. Why do you think it's because the importance of sex is different?"
Hear this.
Brother Zhang sighed: "Then you should tell me in advance so that I can make arrangements."
"No need to arrange."
Zhang Heng didn't care: "I came here this time only for two things."
"It's a private matter or a business matter, just finish it and leave."
"It's a private matter. Third sister said that Brother Zhu is currently immersed in the city and won't go back for ten days and a half."
"Don't ask, just ask: men have to be busy with their careers."
"The third sister is a woman, with long hair and little knowledge, but she still has the intuition of a woman."
"No, don't worry about Brother Zhu. Let me take a look for her."
Said.
Zhang Heng paused slightly: "That's what private matters are like, as for official matters."
Look up at your elder brother.
Zhang Heng did not say any more: "Forget it, let's not mention it. You don't want to hear it."
"Lao San, are you kidding me?"
Brother Zhang listened carefully.
I was so excited when I heard it that I couldn't say anything further, and I almost suffered from internal injuries.
Fortunately.
Not waiting for Zhang Heng to deal with him.
The boatman who was punting the boat spoke first: "Master, Shunfeng Tower, Changfu Nancheng branch has arrived."
"It doesn't matter if you talk and laugh."
"But business cannot be delayed."
Looking at the newly hung plaque on the restaurant.
Zhang Heng said to Brother Zhang: "Go in and take a look?"
"forget it."
"I didn't agree with this marriage in the first place, and you didn't listen to me."
"Now that something fishy is happening, I'm too lazy to get involved. I'll keep saying the same thing. If it doesn't work, I'll fix that Zhu Laoer. I'll go back and introduce a few more young talents to Third Sister, and let her see what's going on.
Call a man."
Brother Zhang is still brooding about what happened back then.
This is also inevitable.
Back then, he returned home in fine clothes and prepared to shock everyone.
result.
It was dispensable when I left, and it is still dispensable when I come back.
After all, he is also the eldest son of the family.
No one wanted to hear his opinion on the third sister's marriage.
What kind of thing is the Zhu family? How can a countryman and a small family be worthy of his sister?
But what is the result?
She made such a fuss that she was too embarrassed to see anyone, and even after saying a few words, the third sister almost hit her to death in front of him.
What now.
I know I cried.
If I had known today, I should have listened to him back then.
Choose a high-end compound to marry into, and become a lady who is the leader both inside and outside.
One morning.
What a scene that was.
When it gets dark, someone outside has to shout: "Make a pot for my wife."
Someone had to answer the question: "The small spring in Dongxiang Mountain is called an authentic place."
"Go on your own."
"Zhu Laoer, you like it, but I don't."
Brother Zhang had no intention of coming in and didn't want to recognize this brother-in-law at all: "After finishing the things later, don't leave in a hurry at night. Come to see me at the Zhang family's residence in Dongsi Lane. Let us have a drink together. I have something to discuss with you.
."
"Okay, I'll go there tonight."
Zhang Heng agreed casually.
In his heart, he didn't think that Brother Zhang would have anything to do with him.
"Speak of it."
"My elder brother also has a hard life."
Watching the boat go away.
Zhang Heng paused for a long time and sighed with emotion: "I'll have a hungry meal at home, a full meal, and the hungry ones will fish for aquatic plants and dig wild vegetables, barely surviving."
"After I went out, I finally had a chance and saved an immortal master."
"In the end, he is also a door panel that blocks disasters. People don't care about him."
"Now I finally have some hope."
"I am willing to be a pawn and a pioneer of the sect. I want to seek development from King Shun."
"It's impossible to imagine"
Zhang Heng shook his head slightly: "Shun Wang should never, absolutely should not, be involved with the Netherworld lineage. My lineage is in conflict with the Netherworld Sect, whether it is the defense of the sect's purpose or its own position.
Prince Shun will definitely not be able to keep his pursuit."
sad sad sad
Zhang Heng felt more and more that if life were a novel.
His eldest brother is definitely not a protagonist, but more like a supporting character with a tragic fate who can turn dark at any time.
As for why it is blackened.
Because after darkening, it can be somewhat stronger, with more pen and ink.
"Sir, what do you want to eat?"
Thinking.
Zhang Heng stepped into the restaurant.
"are you hungry?"
Zhang Heng shook the little tiger in his arms.
listened to his inquiry.
Hu Mengmeng nodded repeatedly.
After all, it is still young, and it is the time when its body is growing. Unknowingly, it seems that it will never have enough to eat. Even if it eats now, it will be hungry after a while.
"One roasted suckling pig and one roasted whole lamb."
"You can bring whatever else you want, as arranged by the table. If there's not enough, I'll ask for more."
Zhang Heng refused to eat.
The little tiger wants to eat too.
A table of food may not be enough, so it certainly cannot be called a waste.
And waste was what was called in previous years.
I don't feel like calling it that now.
Now it’s about stimulating domestic demand and creating more jobs.
Don't waste anything.
Vegetables and meat cannot be sold at any price.
Everyone eats fast and behaves like a monk, but those who sell meat and raise pigs drink the northwest wind and go away.
"Sir, please invite me to the private room upstairs."
Under the hospitality of the restaurant waiter.
Zhang Heng looked at the lobby and walked upstairs.
Private matters are important.
It's official business.
Early or late, it doesn't really matter.
Take King Shun as an example.
Early this morning, the old blood bat demon came to him anxiously.
Ask what's going on.
It was actually just to tell him that King Shun had hung up his free travel sign yesterday afternoon and seemed to have noticed something and disappeared.
What is this thing called?
It made Zhang Heng feel very anxious.
Keep a balanced mind and don't worry about giving birth to a girl.
Shun Wang.
A vassal king who became a vassal.
If he doesn't dare to leave the state without an order, he can run anywhere.
Up to the sky.
Find a place like a barren mountain, a big river or a small lake to hide.
Zhang Heng didn't believe it.
Shunzhou has many mountains and lakes.
There are even more demon soldiers under his command.
Let him run for a few days.
Even a duck that reaches its mouth cannot fly out of his palm.
Eat.
Drink.
How to relieve worries.
Only Du Kang.
Zhang Heng was ruthless and swept the table.
there.
Looking at the empty plates that were being removed from the box, the shopkeeper felt a little guilty in his heart: "A boy of 18 or 19, eating enough for thirty people at a meal, and holding a little tiger in his arms. How does this look? How does it look like Zhang
Over there at home, there is the legendary uncle Sanniang."
Hear this.
The young man standing aside raised his eyes: "Uncle Sanniang, which temple of the Zhang family holds the blessing?"
"It shouldn't be fake."
The shopkeeper waved his hand quickly: "Go and listen to Yuxuan's invitation to the boss. If it's too late, I'm afraid it'll be too late."
"Third brother, why are you here?"
eat and drink.
Not long after, Brother Zhu, smelling of alcohol, stumbled in.
See Brother Zhu in this state.
Zhang Heng didn't say anything either.
Continue to eat in a hurry.
Seeing Zhang Heng ignoring him.
Brother Zhu could neither stand nor sit. He stuttered and said, "Third brother, when did you come? Why didn't you let me know and let me pick you up?"
"pick me up?"
Hear this.
Zhang Heng finally put down the Kuaizi in his hand: "You are a busy man now. Third Sister said, you have already made up your mind. You will only go home for two or three days at the end of each month. You will leave as soon as two or three days arrive. Don't
Ask, ask because you are too busy, you are so busy, why should I trouble you?"
"This, this"
Brother Zhu was at a loss for words for a moment: "The main reason is that Fucheng is not as good as home. The competition here is huge and the development prospects are great. I have to keep an eye on it."
"Besides, my brother-in-law is also feeling miserable. I'm just a commonplace pawn, and I can't compare to you."
"Let's just say it's a trip home. It takes seven days for an ox-cart and four or five days for a horse-drawn carriage. If I don't leave, the shopkeeper at the front will be greedy and the cook at the back will steal. No matter how big the business is, it can't help but fail like this.
"
"If the cook does not steal, the grain will not be harvested."
"It's hard for you to stare at me like this."
The smile on Zhang Heng's face did not diminish: "But how did I hear that you were listening to Yuxuan have a lover, and you said you wanted to redeem yourself for someone else?"
"It's nothing, it's a rumor, it's definitely a rumor."
Brother Zhu shook his head repeatedly, sweating like rain: "I just accompanied a few big government clients to Tingyuxuan a few times and listened to some songs. This was all to promote business and let the government Yamen go to Shunfeng Tower.
Go two more times, third brother, you can't listen to the rumors outside, they are afraid that we will live a better life."
"Yeah?"
Zhang Heng was noncommittal.
There are many demons in the Hushan area. Some demons yearn for urban life and have almost been assimilated by the human race.
These monsters are scattered in various prefectures and counties. Needless to say when they are not needed, they are just eyeliners when they are needed.
Dachang Mansion and Xiashan Village.
Tell me whether it's close or not.
Even if it's far, it's not far.
If Brother Zhu thought he lived in a rural town, he would have turned a blind eye to the situation in the state capital.
That's because he is overthinking.
certainly.
real or fake.
In fact, Zhang Heng knew.
I also understand that Brother Zhu drank flower wine, listened to ditties, and played ambiguously with the opera singer, but he didn't get it right.
Just hit when it's time to hit.
Because he doesn't want to do it one day either.
Brother Zhu sang drunkenly.
Catching the moon in the middle of the lake.
Like the poet Taibai, he fell into the lake and died.
Although this death is elegant.
But after the third sister cried and howled, she would definitely think that it was Brother Zhang who pushed her down.
Because among the Zhang family, the eldest brother Zhang is the most aggressive, and he looks down upon the second brother Zhu.
