On the second day of the first month of September, heavy rain suddenly fell north of the suburbs of Beijing, and this rain came so suddenly that even Qin Tianjian did not expect it.

Lijiazhuang, which is only a hundred miles away from Beijing, is in the center of the rain, and the people who are still farming are caught off guard by the rain, and they have picked up their hoes and walked home.

In stark contrast to this scene, it is a little old man in his fifties, who is standing at the door of his house wearing a hat and a coat, with a smile on his face, looking at the people of the same village who have been drenched in soup and running in the rain, looking at his expression, quite a little gloating.

After the villagers returned home, Zhou Jiuer, who had already calculated the heavy rain, put away his smile, looked up at the overcast sky, and said to himself:

"It seems that this catastrophe cannot be avoided."

Just when he was stunned, a sturdy woman came to him with an umbrella and said in a deep voice:

"Dad, are you watching them get caught in the rain again?"

As soon as the sixteen-year-old woman spoke, it was like a thunderclap in the sky, startling the neighbors' dogs and barking non-stop.

Zhou Jiuer sighed and said with a little regret:

"I'm afraid I won't be able to see this in the future."

……

Zhou Jiuer relied on his ability to calculate, and he could always predict in advance when it would rain heavily, so every time he arrived at this time, he would wear a hat and a robe, standing at the door of his house and waiting to see the excitement, and he was very immoral.

After a long time, his strange behavior was still discovered by the villagers, and those who were a little more active began to pay attention to his actions, as long as he wore a coat one day, those villagers would not go to the ground that day.

At first, this trick was tried, but after a few times, the lack of virtue and smoke actually began to wear clothes on sunny days, and the villagers waited and waited without waiting for the rain, but wasted a day of farming.

After a few times in a row, everyone stopped paying attention to him, and what to do in the first place.

Today, when a few villagers passed by the door of Widow Song's house, saw Zhou Jiu'er wrapped tightly, and then looked at the big sun overhead, they subconsciously thought that this grandson was lying again, so they went to the ground without even asking, and then there was the previous scene.

……

In fact, it's no wonder that Zhou Jiu'er is doing this.

There is nothing to entertain in the small mountain village, and what everyone often talks about on weekdays is the shortcomings of some parents, what mother-in-law and daughter-in-law are not in harmony, who and who are breaking shoes, and it is that little thing over and over, and it is very boring.

Because Zhou Jiuer was plugged in the door upside down, it was inevitable to gossip, but he endured it, and later as his daughter grew up day by day, the people in the village shifted the conversation to her daughter.

said that she is five big and three thick, and no one dares to ask for it, and she is waiting to be an old girl Yunyun in this life.

Zhou Jiuer is usually used to being teased, and most of them laugh and don't pursue it, but laughing at his own daughter, this will touch his bottom line.

Although he doesn't have the ability, relying on his fortune-telling skills is more than enough to Huo Huo's broken mouths.

In this way, Zhou Jiuer developed a habit of watching the excitement on rainy days, and the people in the village did not take the lead and did not say anything, but in this way, the topic returned to him.

……

As the curtain of water flowing from the eaves gradually became smaller, the entire sky also showed signs of clearing, and at this moment, Zhou Jiuer saw a group of people and horses driving between the lines of heaven and earth in the distance.

As the men and horses got closer and closer, the rain became lighter and lighter, and finally when the group was less than a hundred paces away from Zhou Jiu'er, the dark clouds completely dispersed, and the rain cleared.

……

"Master Qiqi, it's here."

The man at the head turned over and dismounted, came to the carriage and bowed down and said.

"Well, you've worked hard all the way."

A man's calm voice could be heard from inside the car.

"How dare you, how dare you." The man's attitude was still restrained, "The little one called him?" ”

"No need, since you have a request, you should go in person, you can lead the way in front."

"Yes."

The man didn't say much, took off his coat and handed it to his entourage, and took the lead in walking towards the house not far ahead.

Zhou Jiuer was old, his eyes were not very good, and he looked at the man in black who was gradually walking towards him, and he was a little flustered for a while.

When the man in black approached twenty steps, Zhou Jiuer saw the other party's appearance clearly, and the panic on his face also dissipated, but there was a faint hesitation in disbelief.

When the other party came to the front completely, Zhou Jiuer's only remaining hesitation was gone, and he said in surprise:

"Huzi? You're not dead? ”

The man known as Huzi rarely showed a smile, "Hehe, I'm lucky, I didn't die by luck, and I made a thousand households." ”

"I'll just say that you are the life of Feihuang Tengda, and it's true."

The man in black in front of him was the tiger who was familiar with Zhou Jiuer in Kaipingwei.

Huzi scratched the back of his head and said embarrassedly:

"At the beginning, thanks to Zhou Shensuan, otherwise where would I have survived that big war, let alone be a thousand households."

Zhou Jiuer laughed and patted the man's shoulder, not caring about the other party's identity at all.

"Don't talk about those useless things, since you have become a big official, you can decide on this meal."

"That's nature." Huzi nodded.

"Don't stand still, go back to the house with me first, I'll invite you for this meal today, and I'll change you next time." Feng'er, hurry up and let your mother prepare some wine and food. ”

"Hey!"

The girl, who was stronger than the tiger, answered, and moved her steps towards the courtyard.

Huzi looked at Feng'er's strong back, and couldn't help but swallow in shock, mother, if this is met on the battlefield, I really don't know if I can fight.

……

Just as Zhou Jiuer was about to drag Huzi to the courtyard, he saw that the other party was embarrassed.

Although the two hadn't seen each other for several years, Zhou Jiuer immediately understood and said:

"If there's a fart, let it go."

Huzi understands the other party's temper, and he doesn't talk nonsense, and says straightforwardly:

"Zhou Shensuan, this time I came mainly to introduce someone to you."

"Who?"

"My master."

"Master?"

Zhou Jiuer's face was suspicious, and he noticed that not far behind Huzi was standing a man in a luxurious sky blue shirt.

The man was in his thirties, exuding the smell of being a living person, and was quietly watching the two of them at the moment, as if waiting for them to finish their old stories.

Those who can be called masters by Huzi, a thousand households, will naturally not be ordinary people, Zhou Jiuer said with a slight hesitation:

"Dare to ask who this lord is?"

When the man heard this, he stepped forward, Xu was showing a gloomy face all day long, and even if he smiled, he still couldn't help but look a little stiff, and he bowed slightly:

"The junior is surnamed Wang, and I came here this time to discuss something with my husband."

Zhou Jiuer looked at the polite young man in front of him, but he was shocked in his heart.

He is not a stupid person, although there are more people surnamed Wang in the world, but there is such momentum, and there are only a few people in the capital who can make a person with less than a thousand households call themselves.

And his daily "seeing the dragon in the field" has not been fulfilled until today, and I am afraid that it is inseparable from the people in front of him.

The young man in front of him is a certain prince of the current dynasty.

Zhou Jiuer can get a glimpse of the way of heaven, but after all, he is just an ordinary man, after guessing the identity of the man in front of him, he is inevitably a little panicked, he said cautiously:

"Dare to ask Your Excellency, but you are from the capital?"

He thought he was asking this ingeniously, but unexpectedly, the man opposite shook his head, "The junior is from Jiangnan. ”

"Oh......" Zhou Jiuer just breathed a sigh of relief, and secretly said that he was thinking too much, but then Huzi's words shocked him into a cold sweat:

"Zhou Shenshu, this is the brother who is close to the saint, the second prince Wang Zhide."

"Huh?" Even though Zhou Jiuer had already guessed, it was still a little hard to believe.

The biggest official he has ever seen in his life is only a thousand households, and he has to tremble for a while, and now that he sees Tianyan, he can't even pee out?

After being stunned for a while, Zhou Jiuer hurriedly knelt down, his head prostrate on the ground, and said in a trembling voice:

"The grass people knock on the prince."

Seeing this, Wang Shande hurriedly stepped forward to help, and at the same time looked at the tiger on the side, with an uncertain look in his eyes.

Wang Zhide tried his best to reassure him:

"Don't be frightened, the old gentleman came this time to ask Mr. Yu, don't do this big gift, please hurry up."

After seeing Wang Shande's eyes, Huzi suddenly felt that his scalp exploded, and he knew that he was talking too much, so he hurriedly stepped forward to support Zhou Jiuer, who was kneeling on the ground.

With the support of the two, Zhou Jiuer stood up cautiously, and after a while, he spoke:

"I don't know why the prince came this time?"

Wang Zhi Delu hesitated and said:

"The junior wants to ask Mr. to follow me back to Jiangnan as a guest."

"Oh......" Zhou Jiuer first pondered, and then said:

"Lord Wang, the grass people are old, you want me to help you make a hexagram, the little old man should know everything, but if I want to travel a long way to Jiangnan, I really can't stand the toss."

After that, he hammered his legs, "Just standing for a while, it's already a sore back and leg pain." ”

……

Zhou Jiuer is extremely afraid of death, but he is also extremely smart.

A dignified prince is not staying in the territory, and he has come all the way to find a bad old man to be a guest, and it is clear that there is a problem.

Zhou Jiuer is still a little self-aware, he has not made any great achievements in his life, and he can still handle the divination of the sky, but he is a prince, he does not lack gold and silver, nor does he lack women, what else can he find himself?

Thinking about it, isn't there only a career left?

If this prince is considered an official career, he will die, and if the prince goes up, only the emperor will be left.

And according to the previous hexagram, there should be a difficulty in one's fate, and this difficulty should be seen in the dragon in the field.

If it is crossed, it will be a monstrous wealth, and if it cannot be crossed, it will be a monstrous disaster.

Let's ask, what else can have such a hexagram in the world, except for rebelling and becoming an emperor?

And those who cultivate the Tao are the most reluctant to participate in political struggles.

If it succeeds, it is needless to say that the territory will become a king and a marquis, and once it fails, it will be a chaotic minister and a thief.

Besides, throughout the ages, how many of the founding heroes can have the last laugh? It's not that the rabbit is dead, the dog is cooking, and the bird is all hidden.

Therefore, how unreliable is this matter, although Zhou Jiuer is short of silver, he can't put his life into it.

……

Wang Shande naturally knew that the other party was shirking, and comforted:

"I have long heard that General Zhao said that Mr. has no last resort, and the younger generation just doesn't want Mr. to bury his talent in vain, so please consider this matter carefully."

"The little old man is only a shallow learner, and he really can't take on a big responsibility, so I hope the prince will think twice."

Zhou Jiuer continued to decline politely.

"It's okay, the juniors won't leave until tomorrow, I'll wait for your reply before leaving."

Wang Shande was not too persecuted, and left after speaking.

Huzi hurriedly followed, and before the other party got into the carriage, he whispered something, and Wang Zhide glanced at Zhou Jiuer when he heard this, and nodded.

Then the group left.

The tiger who was left behind glanced at Zhou Jiuer and shrugged helplessly, while the other party showed a wry smile.

……

On the carriage, Wang Zhide closed his eyes and recuperated, but the woman opposite rarely picked up the chess game.

"What do you think?" After a long time, Wang Zhide spoke in a deep voice, still closing his eyes.

The woman said casually: "It's not good." ”

"What do you mean?" The man opened his eyes.

"Have you heard of it?"

The ......man was silent at first, and then said, "You want me to go a few more times?" ”

The woman put down the chess game, frowned and said:

"I'm asking you to put down your body, don't hold the prince's shelf there, or rather, be more sincere."

The man ...... was silent.

"And General Zhao, I originally thought he was a simple person, but now it seems that this is not the case." The woman continued.

The man nodded, but didn't say anything.

"Oh yes, just now the spy reported that Wang Quanquan took the folk princess."

"Hmm." The man nodded, not seeming surprised.

"And ......," the woman said and stopped.

"What else?"

"The king's authority passed through Bashu and took away Jiang Xiuye's ancestors and grandchildren."

This prince, who has always been like a stagnant face from beginning to end, finally couldn't calm down at this moment, and he said in surprise:

"What's going on?"

Nie Yingxue sighed and said helplessly:

"They made a big fuss about the Tang Sect, and by the way, they helped Jiang Xiuye avenge it, so they ......"

After all, the man couldn't maintain his elegant image, and his eyes showed anger. If it weren't for Nie Yingxue in front of him, he would definitely scold.

Nie Yingxue smiled at this time, gloating:

"It's a pity that you have been working hard for more than ten years to make a good move, and the pace was disrupted by that guy's unreasonable move, no wonder you asked me to watch him closely, it's really ...... It's too messy. ”

After searching her stomach for a while, she finally came up with a fair evaluation.

The man on the other side was silent for a while, and finally said helplessly: "It's really messy." ”

The woman laughed when she heard this, she knew the man in front of her too well, and the other party seemed to be only slightly angry, but in fact she was already angry.

Somehow, seeing him angry, he was unconsciously happy, probably because this guy rarely showed his emotions.

……

At the same time, Wang Quanquan and his entourage had just left the border of Bashu, and when they looked back at the vision monument, Wang Quanquan secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Although he had reached a deal with Tangmen, he was still a little villain after all, and he was always afraid that the other party would regret it again, so in order to prevent a long night and many dreams, several people set off overnight.

Due to the fact that there were two more people at once, the original carriage inevitably seemed smaller, so Wang Quanquan bought another carriage for Jiang Xiuye's ancestors and grandchildren to ride, and he also acted as a groom.

Now after walking all night and a morning, I finally got out of the range of Bashu.

At this time, it was just after noon, and the king on the way sneezed coldly, and he rubbed his nose and muttered:

"Which bastard is speaking ill of Lao Tzu?"

……

That night, at Widow Song's house, two men were drinking at the table.

On one side is Zhao Hu, who is a thousand households, and on the other side is Zhou Jiuer, a small citizen of Shengdou.

After three rounds of drinking, Huzi began to take advantage of the strength of the wine to tell about what he had encountered in the past few years.

Due to his outstanding performance in the battle of Kaipingwei, after the war, he was promoted to three levels in a row, from captain to thousand.

If it is according to the meaning of the top ten thousand households, it is not too much to give him a thousand households directly, but he is afraid that he will not be able to convince the public, so after consideration, he will give him a thousand households for the time being, and then slowly move up in the future.

Originally, if he continued to stay at the border for a few years, accumulate some military merits, and go all the way, it would not be impossible for ten thousand households to be feudal marquis in the future, but within a few days, he was transferred to Jiangnan by a paper order.

Huzi was reluctant at first, Jiangnan was rich, but he lacked a lot of opportunities for promotion, just when he tried his best to transfer back to Kaipingwei, the powerful prince found him......
