Since there is no escape, then the things that I know can be said directly. Although Empress Wu already knows the Tao clearly, whether she says it or not is a matter of her own attitude. Having said that, Empress Wu may not necessarily be suspicious of herself; Not to mention, with the character of Empress Wu, she will inevitably doubt herself!

"Oh! Something like this happened in Changhe County? What did Zhang Aiqing find? Empress Wu was taken aback and asked. It's like a real question.

"The dragon king sucks water on purpose, and they use two things that resemble big bronze bells, and they keep turning in the water, forming a huge whirlpool! Originally, Weichen had already found the two big bronze bells, but he was negligent for a while, and they were stolen by those gangs! After thinking about it, Zhang Chen said softly. He didn't want to mention his assassination, but Empress Wu must have known about it. If he mentions it, it will appear that he is hypocritical; If he doesn't mention it, it shows that he understands things well and is righteous.

"Oh, Zhang Aiqing is really the gospel of this palace! As soon as I returned, I brought such good news! A great achievement, there is a reward! Empress Wu said with a smile.

"Hui Niangniang, according to Weichen, this matter is not ordinary! Wechen just found out the mystery of the dragon king's water absorption, but what these people want to do, Wechen still has no clue! Zhang Chen said softly. Respectfully. It's real, too.

"Hehehe, some people are playing tricks. It must be some shady deed! Zhang Aiqing can rest assured to investigate, this matter is borne by the palace for Zhang Aiqing! Empress Wu said with a smile. A hint of coldness flashed in his eyes. With such a big incident, these people are obviously not simple! No matter what you want to do, it's not going to be easy! Moreover, it is very likely that he is coming to the imperial court again! Of course, it could also be for her. Ever since she came to the court to listen to politics, strange things have been happening!

"Yes, sis!" Zhang Chen replied respectfully.

"If Zhang Aiqing has any needs, you can tell this palace, and this palace will try its best to meet Zhang Aiqing!" looked at Zhang Chen. Empress Wu said softly.

"Yes. Xie Lu Xie Niangniang! Zhang Chen thanked.

"Oh, by the way, sister, she went to her mother's house in Changhe County, and she didn't embarrass Zhang Aiqing on the way, right?" I thought about it. Empress Wu asked softly.

"Nope. No! Concubine Niangniang has always been very good at treating Weichen! Zhang Chen hurriedly said. Some frightened. If you let Empress Wu know about him and Concubine Shu. I really don't know what Empress Lu Daowu will do with him!

"Oh, that's good! My sister has a very good temper! He nodded. Empress Wu said with a smile. Concubine Shu is good to Zhang Chen, she knows the truth, and it is reasonable. As for whether Concubine Shu really had something to do with Zhang Chen, she is still unsure. However, from the information she received, it seems that something has been achieved.

A great beauty who captivates the country and the city is a man, so she shouldn't be able to refuse, right? Looking at Zhang Chen, Empress Wu thought in her heart.

After chatting with Empress Wu for a while, Zhang Chen and Guo Zhongfei got up and retired. From beginning to end, Guo Zhongfei stood beside Zhang Chen and didn't say a word. The two came out of the palace and traveled all the way to Dali Temple, Guo Zhongfei said goodbye to Zhang Chen and rushed to Nanya. And Zhang Chen wants to go to Dali Temple to have a look, he still has a large group of "family members" waiting for him to deal with!

With such a large group of people nesting in Dali Temple, it is obviously unreliable. Not surprisingly, his yard has been repaired. It's really not good, so let's go back to the Red Jade Bookstore for a few days. After all, Huo Yi was dead, and he didn't have to worry about Huo Yi going to the Red Jade Book Store to do something to him. As for those mysterious men in black, he can't guard against them now. Moreover, their goal is only themselves! Without driving them to a dead end, they will not fight to break the net and find trouble with their relatives. Otherwise, that just reminds themselves that they have to deal with themselves. Obviously, those people are not stupid B, and they definitely won't do that. Qiu Zhengshu and Yin Ruiji will not be in danger, and the only one who is really in danger is himself!

In these days, it is really difficult to be a man, and it is even more difficult to be a person who has no quarrel with the world! He really doesn't want to be involved in this matter, he just wants to be his own Dali Temple, and he has nothing to do with his brothers to blow B, drink wine, that's all!

Thinking of handling the case, Zhang Chen thought of Di Renjie. I have to say, this guy is indeed a talent. However, I really don't dare to use it! People who are too smart make people feel empty! Zhang Chen thought so, and Empress Wu also thought so. In Zhang Chen's eyes, Di Renjie is too smart; And in the eyes of Empress Wu, he Zhang Chen is too smart!

When I came to Dali Temple, everyone was there. From Xiaolan and Xiaoju's mouths, they learned that their yard had indeed been built. At this time, Zhang Chen's heart is steady, otherwise, the small Red Jade Bookstore may not be able to accommodate so many people! After briefly explaining the matter in Dali Temple, Zhang Chen set off with this large group of "family members" to his new residence.

Jishanfang, opposite Luoshui Bridge, next to Luoshui, overlooking the imperial city, not far from Dali Temple. Most of the courtyards in this area are inhabited by officials, and they are officials with relatively important status in the DPRK and China. It is close to the imperial city, which can be convenient for the early dynasty. Those who are lowly and small, and who live far away, have to get up and prepare before the fifth watch.

The ancients divided the day and night into twelve periods, each of which was called an hour. It is called midnight, rooster crowing, Pingdan, sunrise, eclipse time, corner time, day center, sun day, sunset, sunset, dusk, and people. It is also represented by the twelve earthly branches, 子 (zǐ), ugly (chǒu), 寅 (yín), 卯 (mǎo), 辰 (chén), 巳 (sì), 午 (wǔ), 未 (wèi), 申 (shēn), 酉 (yǒu), 戌 (xū), and 海 (hài), which correspond to the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, chicken, dog, and pig in the 12 zodiac signs. Take 23 o'clock to 1 o'clock in the middle of the night as the sub, 1 to 3 o'clock as the ugly time, 3 to 5 o'clock as the Yin time, and then push it in turn.

The ancients divided the night into five watches, namely the first watch, the second watch, the third watch, the fourth watch, and the fifth watch.

A watch starts at dusk, 19-21 o'clock. A watch is in the time, called dusk, also known as sunset, sunset, sunset, evening and so on. By this time, the sun had set, and it was going to be dark. The sky and the earth are dim, and everything is hazy, so it is called dusk. At this time, people are still moving.

The second watch is faint, 21-23 o'clock. When the second watch was in Hai, celebrities were fixed, also known as fixed dusk, etc. At this time, the night is dark, and people have stopped their activities and slept peacefully.

Three watches, 23-1 a.m. the next day. When the third watch is in the sub, the name is half of the night, also known as the middle of the night, the middle of the night, etc. It was the first hour of the twelve, and the hour of the darkest night. It was undoubtedly the darkest time of the night, when darkness was enough to consume everything. And the legendary ghost came out to move at this time.

Four more, 1-3 points. When the fourth watch is ugly, the famous rooster crows, also known as the wild chicken, the second hour of the twelve hours. Although the day after the third watch should slowly become brighter, the fourth watch still belongs to the night, and it is the time when people sleep the deepest, so in this night when they can't see their fingers, there are thieves who take advantage of this dark night to start a mess. Therefore, the fourth watch can also be called the time of "dog thieves".

Five, 3-5 points. When the fifth watch is in Yin, it is called Pingdan, also known as dawn, morning, day, etc., which is the time when night and day alternate. At this time, the chickens are still crowing, and people are gradually waking up from their sleep to welcome the new day.

On the Luoshui Bridge, Zhang Chen's group naturally attracted the attention of a large group of people. A large group of beauties, like a market. I believe that many people have never seen so many beauties at one time in their lives!

Seeing the jealous and envious eyes of the people around him, Zhang Chen was a little fluttering. That's right, these people are all my women! There are still a few who have not been dealt with, and after two days they are free, they will also be dealt with!

In his own courtyard, before he got close, Zhang Chen had already seen a fresh plaque hanging on the door of his courtyard, and the plaque was written with two big characters in bright red - Zhang Mansion in cinnabar. Next to the door, there are two large lanterns. From today onwards, I can be regarded as having my own mansion!

This courtyard Zhang Chen has been here before, it is very big, and it is about one-third larger than the Zhou Mansion that Zhou Kaijin entered! I have to say that Empress Wu is really very good to herself. In his time, this courtyard should be regarded as a villa, at least worth tens of millions!

The yard is very large, and the layout of other yards is the same, with the living room in the front and the wing room in the backyard. Pu Suxiu's daughters opened their mouths wide, Zhang Chen's mansion was not much smaller than the palace of the East Island Country where they lived before. Oops, I'm going to live here in the future, it's good!

The yard was cleaned up, the flowers and plants in the garden were neatly cut, and a thick bamboo forest was planted near the thatched hut to the west. Rockery ponds, pavilions, bamboo gardens, you name it. Zhang Chen looked at it himself, and he was also full of joy. Compared to the previous Ruby Bookstore, it's really a world of difference!

The tables, stools, wooden beds, and dressers in the room are all new, brocade quilts, towels, and Xiaolan and Xiaoju are also properly purchased. Of course, this is limited to these people in their families. There were so many people all of a sudden, which Xiaolan and Xiaoju didn't expect. But they were still very happy to see Baguio come back. They have known Baguio for much longer than they have known Zhang Chen. In their eyes, Baguio is more like the head of the family, and Zhang Chen is just a guest.

As for the arrangement of the room, Xiaolan and Xiaoju had already prepared a room for Zhang Chen. At the same time, he also arranged a room for Yin Ruiji, which was next door to Zhang Chen. As for the others, it can only be arranged by Zhang Chen now. Zhang Chen also won the opinions of the women themselves, there are so many rooms, they can choose by themselves.

A new home, a new atmosphere, Zhang Chen asked Qiu Zhengshu and Pu Suxiu to throw away all the old bedding and sheets, and they will buy new ones for a while. and the silk sent by Empress Wu, all of them were used to tailor clothes for all the women, whether it was a lady or a maid, everyone had it!
