The door of the cave opened lightly, Zhang Wen took off his robe, walked in with his legs, and immediately smelled the fragrance of osmanthus flowers. When I looked down, the marble path was surrounded by tiny osmanthus petals, but there were no osmanthus trees around. Inside and outside the wall, it is like two realms.

"My lord, please come here." At the door, a girl dressed in white with light lines smiled sweetly and made a blessing. She led the way in front, and Zhang Wen followed the girl all the way along the path between the flowers and plants to the west. There were still people behind him by chance, so he turned around, and now a few slaves and maids were kneeling on the ground and wiping the floor with cloths, scrubbing the mud marks left by Zhang Wen along the way.

Zhang Wen buried his head and saw that his boots were stained with mud, the stone road was too clean, and the slightest mud would stain it. The girl who led the way saw Zhang Wen's eyes and said with a smile: "Don't worry, these slaves will clean up." ”

Zhang Wen nodded, puzzled, "Where did these petals come from?" ”

The girl said: "It is a variety of flowers and trees specially planted by the young owner's family, and the falling flowers are sprinkled every day." ”

Zhang Wen was silent, and his heart was not sprinkled with flower petals, but silver. The money is only for the adornment of beauty and sorrow...... In Zhang Wen's opinion, it is no different from listening to the sound of water in the water.

The two of them crossed the path and came to a pond, when Zhang Wen heard the sound of a dingdong piano in the distance. Following the sound of the piano, there is a bamboo building in the west of Tangxi, and the sound of the piano probably comes from the building.

The girl took Zhang Wen and walked around the pond. Zhang Wen glanced at the bamboo building, which was built like an open grass hall and was ventilated on all sides. There are layers of curtains hanging around the bamboo building, and you can't see the scene inside, only the sound of the piano can be heard.

A breeze blows, the mantle is light, and the petals sprinkled on the roof fall in response to the wind, one after another, like a fairyland on earth.

At this moment, a woman wearing a black robe and a hat and veil walked over to this side. The woman in Xuanyi said coldly: "Anyone who enters the building must be searched." ”

The girl in white who led the way said, "Lord Zhang is a distinguished guest of the Shaodong family. ”

Zhang Wen was stunned: "This official dignified Yu Zhi County, on behalf of the Son of Heaven to herd a piece of land, this Shen Mansion is also under the jurisdiction of this official, how can there be a reason to search your body!" ”

The woman in Xuanyi said coldly: "I only obey the orders of the altar master, no matter who it is, you have to abide by the rules here." ”

Zhang Wen's face was angry: "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister!" As long as it is in Shangyu County, it is the place under the jurisdiction of my Ming Shangyu Governor, and you will not be able to rebel! ”

When the stalemate was at a stalemate, another woman in Xuanyi came over and said to the woman in Xuanyi before: "The altar master said: Please Lord Zhang deign to move into the building, the subordinates do not understand the laws of the imperial court, please Lord Zhang a lot, don't worry about them." ”

Zhang Wenting's voice was a little familiar, and when he suddenly remembered, he couldn't help but say, "Are you Aunt Di?" ”

The Xuanyi woman who gave the order arched her hand and said, "Aunt Di has seen Master Zhang, don't come unharmed." ”

Zhang Wen smiled and said: "It's okay, hehe, I am here to reunite with Aunt Di, fate, fate." ”

Aunt Di bowed and said, "Your Excellency, please." ”

Zhang Wen glanced at the woman in the dark clothes on the side, flicked the sleeves of his robe, and walked towards the bamboo building. Aunt Di raised the curtain for Zhang Wen and said in a low voice: "I didn't say a word to anyone about my lord's business. Zhang Wen smiled and walked into the bamboo building. The furnishings in the building are simple and elegant, with only two wooden tables and a few wooden stools, and the wooden houses are not even painted, as if they are still shining with the fragrance of wood.

"Boom!" The sound of the piano behind the bead curtain inside stopped abruptly, and a woman's voice without a little noise said: "Little girl Shen Biyao, I have seen Lord Zhang, there is a difference between men and women, the etiquette is not careful, and I still look at Haihan, Lord Zhang, please take a seat." ”

"Miss Shen doesn't have to be polite." Zhang Wen sat down next to a wooden table. At this time, a girl in white carefully placed a teacup on the table next to Zhang Wen, as if she was afraid of making a little noise.

Ding, a soft bell rang, and a woman in Xuanyi walked in outside the curtain, carrying a wooden box in her hand, put it on the table in front of Zhang Wen, and without saying a word, she withdrew with her hand.

Shen Biyao said: "A little courtesy, not a respect, please smile." ”

Zhang Wen opened the wooden box and was startled when he suddenly saw a pair of wide-open eyes staring at him. It turned out that there was a human head in the wooden box! A smell of blood came to my nose, it was the head of Laifu.

Zhang Wen closed the lid of the box quietly, and Shen Biyao asked him to look at the head, which was nothing more than telling him that Laifu's actions were against her wishes, and if the chess pieces she placed were not obedient, she could abandon them at any time; Second, everything that happened in Zhang Wen's mansion was in her eyes, it was, it is, and it will be in the future, he is also a chess piece, a chess piece that is now qualified to meet her across the curtain and pretend that the two are equal in everything. But these truths are only valuable when they are covered. The woman in the dark robe closed the lid at this moment. Zhang Wen resisted the urge to vomit.

The two were silent for a moment, and Shen Biyao said, "Are you still satisfied with this thin gift?" ”

Zhang asked, "I would like to thank Miss Shen for the gift." I just don't know, what can this official give Miss Shen? ”

The wind lifted the curtain and moved lightly, blowing the bead curtain inside also swaying, and the beads were glowing with the bright light of autumn. Shen Biyao's voice was like a bead swaying, crisp and refreshing, "Lord Zhang's kindness, Baguio has it, it's just ...... There are several proprietors in the city, and I hope that the adults will take care of them. ”

"Only when the people are rich can the country be rich, and the squires and people in Shangyu, as long as they abide by the law and discipline, the officials should protect and take care of them."

Shen Biyao said: "What if you accidentally break the law? ”

Zhang Wen calmed down, and said in her heart that she was really ready to use herself, and what they wanted to do "accidentally breaking the law", Zhang Wen couldn't know for a while.

But when everyone else said this, Zhang Wen said directly: "Please also ask Miss Shen to make it clear, which ones are they?" ”

Shen Biyao said: "I will inform the adults when the time comes." ”

Before he saw him, he was fascinated by her voice, coupled with her strategy and boldness, so that Zhang Wen couldn't help but think of the fact that when he threatened him, he mentioned that he was young and promising but not yet married, and it would become one of the reasons why outsiders looked at him differently. There was a secret thought in my heart, if I could marry a woman of Shen Biyao's status, would my situation be reversed immediately? Because then he will no longer be a pawn of hers.

At this time, Zhang Wen's heart suddenly brightened, but to marry this Shen Biguio, it was just a fantasy at the moment, "If Miss Shen doesn't have anything else, the official won't talk too much and leave." ”

"Someone, send off."

Zhang asked to get out of the bamboo building, or the girl in white who led the way before took him out. Zhang Wen deliberately looked left and right, and asked the girl in white in a low voice: "Where is Aunt Di?" ”

The girl in white smiled lightly, "Sister said that I will meet again." ”

"Oh." Zhang Wenxindao was on the Beijing-Hangzhou Canal last time, and was seen by this woman, it seems that she really didn't say it, and there is no evidence, just by feeling, their peak may not be believed. Shen Biyao, these dart players, although they all look loyal, are not people.

Out of the gate of the Shen Mansion, several attendants hurriedly came over to greet him, Zhang asked on the sedan chair, and said, "Go back to the yamen." ”

He put down the sedan curtain and exhaled secretly, this time he sent his own handle, which seemed to be a dangerous move, but it was not. It's like being unarmed, and your opponent has a bow and arrow to shoot you, so why not give your opponent a knife? Danger or disaster depends on whether the opponent wants to kill him or not, and how to kill is not the same result.

Zhang Wen closed his eyes and listened to the shouts of the hawkers outside, which made people's hearts full of inexplicable sadness when they felt the breath of life. The falling flowers in Shen Baguio's yard are not like the hawker's shouting?

He guessed the thoughts of everyone around him in his mind, thinking that if this magistrate was too embarrassed, he might not be able to get Shen Biyao's heart. Now that the Shen family has their own handle, they are much more relieved, it's time to take care of these people below, otherwise they can't do anything.

The person in charge of Bo is just an old fritter with a mouse eye, thinking that he has experience, and if he plays something new with him, he will be at a loss. Zhang Wen was trying to play something with the master Bo that he didn't know.

Back at the county office, Zhang Wen walked into the signing room, and without saying a word, he issued an official document to dismiss Feng Gui, the scribe of the torture room. There is no excuse, and there is no need for any reason, the magistrate has this power.

This official document was like a pebble thrown into a pool of stagnant water, which immediately caused ripples. Originally, Guan Zhian and others thought that the matter of the "big dog" had passed, but they didn't expect the county to suddenly come to such a move.

Everyone speculated about the intentions of the county. Even Huang Renzhi was puzzled, and when he saw that there was no one next to him, he touched his beard and muttered: "My lord, the old man didn't understand it, my lord wanted to ......."
