Zhang Ji said that he couldn't escape his in-laws, but he also understood that one of his hearts already belonged. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoThe girl's beautiful face and thin figure had already taken root in his heart and sprouted.

It was a shocking Tongzhou case that would enter the Layue Gate a year ago.

Tongzhou's terrain is tight, the rivers and canals are intricate, and the land routes extend in all directions, which is called "water and land meeting", and several major passes and passages are choked. Merchants gathered, trade prospered, three religions and nine streams gathered here, here is like another world facing the outside, the surface is prosperous, but in fact it is a miasma. Officials wantonly amass wealth and enrich themselves. Based on the supremacy of interests, it is even more careless of human life and disregard for the rule of law. There are frequent incidents that disrupt the government's program and shake the people's hearts. Some people even secretly reported the emperor's secret letter, reporting that Liu Shilin, the governor of Tongzhou, colluded with others to frame Sun Weiping, a wealthy gentleman in Tongzhou, to harbor important criminals in the imperial court, put Sun Weiping in prison, and occupy his family's property, wife and concubine.

The emperor was furious, and took Zhang Jizhao as the messenger and went to Tongzhou to supervise it.

After many days of investigation and secret visits, Zhang Jizhao finally got to the bottom of the matter, Liu Shilin saw that the matter was exposed, and he was more than lucky, panicked like a bird with a bow all day long, trying to make a desperate bet, and then became murderous. sent more than a dozen skilled killers to wait for the opportunity to kill Zhang Jizhao.

Although Zhang Jizhao was guarded and had good martial arts, he was helpless and weak, and he was able to escape under the desperate cover of two entourages.

He was hit by two arrows in the shoulder, and under the pursuit of the outlaws, he reluctantly drilled into the former Sun Mansion, and since Sun Weiping was arrested, the big mansion has been controlled by Liu Shilin.

Liu Shilin's dog legs guarded the yard strictly, and the yard was brightly lit, with plenty of people and shouts. Zhang Jizhao, who was hiding in the corner, shivered. On this day, it was freezing cold, and even if he was not caught, he was frozen to death.

It should also be fate, and it should be fate, just when Zhang Jizhao was frozen and was about to lose consciousness, he heard a faint voice calling him in a daze, is it a hallucination of dying people? He was puzzled, and his eyelids seemed to have fallen and he couldn't lift them. A pair of warm hands rubbed against his face, and just one pair of hands made him feel the hope of life. It was a pair of soft hands, and he could even feel the same soft and kind heart of the owner of the hand.

The courtyard was much quieter, except for the howling cold wind that cut his face like a knife. He was held up and hurried out of the cold corner. Since then, he has been completely unconscious.

When he woke up, he found himself in a warm room, lying on a soft couch, the bed was covered with a sarong curtain, the room was filled with a strong smell of smoke, and the stove was burning vigorously...... Boudoir.

He was slightly surprised, who would have the courage to save him? He supported his body, and by the moonlight, he saw a petite woman dozing off on the table of the Eight Immortals. Xu is woman did not fall asleep, she got up in a panic and listened intently to the movement outside the window, except for the sound of the wind in the yard. The woman slowly turned around while holding her chest, and when she saw Zhang Jizhao half-sitting there, she seemed to be startled and moved her hand to her lips. After a pause, he moved to the bed.

In the darkness, the two looked at each other.

"Strongman, are you awake?" The woman's voice is very good, like a light rain in spring, and it moistens into people's hearts.

"Thank you Miss for your rescue, I will take care of each other in the future." Zhang Jizhao was nervous about the ape, and the words did not reach the meaning.

The woman sneered, and then said in a straight voice, "It turned out to be Lord Qincha, so Miaoyu should be saved." ”

"Miss is from the house?"

"My father is Sun Weiping, who was persecuted by the dog official Liu Shilin, and the little woman Sun Miaoyu thanked Lord Qincha." Sun Miaoyu's voice was somber and sad.

Zhang Jizhao sighed deeply, "Miss Sun is my life-saving benefactor, just call me Brother Zhang in the future, you don't have to be formal." It's just that when I first arrived, I was calculated by Liu Shilin, and it was difficult to get out of Tongzhou. ”

"Brother Zhang, you can recuperate with peace of mind, I will arrange someone to take you out of the city." Sun Miaoyu is calm and confident.

"It's not a problem for me to stay in the lady's boudoir. I'm afraid that Miss will ......"

"Brother Zhang, you don't have to worry. A few days ago, in order to paralyze Liu Shilin, I used my hands and feet, and he didn't dare to send someone over to be disturbed. Sun Miaoyu spoke as crisply as fried beans, and her eyes shone in the dark, like stars in the morning.

One day, day and night, feeding, debridement, rubbing, heart-to-heart talk...... Like a lifetime, like a lifetime. It was the dead of night, and the wind was cold, mixed with scattered snowflakes. Zhang Jizhao, dressed in black, was led to the passage between the room and the wall, where a strong man in black was already waiting.

"Third brother, Brother Zhang will be handed over to you." The voice was soft, but solemn.

"Don't worry, Fourth Miss, Chen Ming will live up to his trust." Chen Ming's words were loud and unquestionable.

I don't know when we will meet, and the snowflakes fall silently on his and hers' hair, one, two, three...... Thin hair seems to be gray.

There are a thousand words in the heart, but it is difficult to open the mouth. The words of the confidant were squeezed out in a queue in his chest, but when it came to his mouth, it was the lightest and most tasteless sentence, and he heard himself saying to her, "Miss Sun, take care." ”

Oh, my God! God knows, in fact, what he wants to say is that he wants to take her with him.

It must be the fault of the tongue, which often gets knotted at the most critical time...... caused him to say the wrong thing.

Miss Sun may have informed him that "the words don't reach the meaning", she nodded briskly, her eyes were still as clear as the stars in the sky, "Let's go, Brother Zhang, don't delay." ”

Before he could say that sincere word, Zhang Jizhao had been taken to the wall by the anxious Chen Ming. Zhang Jizhao was shocked and praised, "The light skills are so good, and the top guards in the palace may not have such martial arts"; said in his heart, this Tongzhou is indeed the land of the hidden dragon and the crouching tiger, which should not be underestimated.

Outside the wall, two trembling horses hid among the trees. The two of them got on horseback, and Chen Ming chose a remote path and galloped. Within a day, Zhang Jizhao returned to the palace, and Liu Shilin's dog party was annihilated, connecting nine clans, and the implicated people reached half of Tongzhou City. If it is light, it will be fined tens of thousands of taels of silver. Sun Weiping was acquitted, and peace was restored to Tongzhou City.

A thrilling trip made Zhang Jizhao remember Tongzhou from then on, just because there was a woman there.

Zhang Jizhao is not without ideas, he thinks day and night, and lets his thoughts grow like crazy weeds. However, on the one hand, there is emotion, and on the other hand, there is reason.

In Anle Mansion, feelings can be called luxuries, such as flowers in the water, the moon in the mirror, ethereal and unreal. No matter how strong the feelings are, there is only repression, only sacrifice.

The government and the opposition in the capital are full of talents, and those with inflated ambitions are like crucian carp crossing the river, which are innumerable and cannot be prevented. The struggle between the nobles was cruel and fierce, and the slightest carelessness would cause trouble, such as the dismissal of the knight, the loss of life, and the accumulation of the family.

In order to further stabilize and expand in the capital, the biggest move of the Anle Mansion is to marry and marry with major powerful families. A well-deserved relative of the emperor, a tyrant of the government and the opposition.

The intertwined network of in-laws has made the interests of the Anle Mansion grow dramatically. The industry in the house involves all aspects, and about half of the shops on the street are based on the name of Anle Mansion to survive. Jade, medicine, tobacco, song and dance workshop...... All kinds of fields, all walks of life, almost all involved. Anle Mansion deserves to be the first of the "four families" in the capital.

The other three are Shang'an Houfu, that is, the maiden family of the Qian family, and the husband of the county lord of Chaoxiang, Qian Fangjun's mansion; Prime Minister Lu Hu opened the mansion, Qingshan Palace. are all indulged in pleasure, have no intention of enterprising, and live a luxurious life of spending money and dreaming of death. One generation is not the next, and the stubborn habits of the children of the gentlemen are clearly visible in them. The Anle Mansion despised them to a certain extent.

Zhang Jizhao, as the eldest grandson of the eldest house, has been taught by his grandmother since he was a child, strict self-discipline, cautious in words and deeds, and a good example for his younger siblings. All along, these big words and words pressed on him like a mountain.

Reality and love, compromise and persistence, like left and right hands, it is really difficult to choose. betraying the family, he can't bear it; Betraying love, he is unwilling. For more than half a year, he struggled and suffered. On one side is the burden of the family, and on the other side is the expectant eyes of the sweetheart. What should he do?
