Bidding farewell to the people of Yiyuan who saw them off, the carriage slowly moved towards Zibo. Zhang Xun looked at the little Zhang Xing in Xinlan's arms, and then looked at Wen Xin's increasingly stiff belly, and his mood settled down. At this moment, he doesn't think about the deceit in the officialdom, and feels the beauty of life like this.

When I came to Zibo, I first went to the mansion to settle Xinlan and Wenxin, and let Bihe and Yuchan clean up the courtyard. Zhang Xun returned to the room to change into official clothes, and went to the mansion to see Governor Yu. Zhang Xun is now a general judge, second only to the prefect in the official rank in Zibo Mansion, and the position of general judge is relatively special, he is an official sent by the king, and has the right to supervise all officials in the palace. In case of trouble, you can also report directly to the king, so although the title is not as big as the prefect, the authority is not small. Seeing that Zhang Xun, the prefect of Yu, of course, didn't have to report as before, and came directly to the hall. Seeing Zhang Xun coming, Governor Yu said happily: "Zhang Tong is sentenced to take office, and the government will be more relaxed." Zhang Xun said: "In the future, the same government will be an official, and I need more support from Lord Yu." After the politeness, Yu Zhifu said: "You have just arrived in Zibo, and you haven't eaten yet! Mingjiang has already been arranged, the time is almost up, you and I will go to the banquet together!"

Zhang Xun came to the orchid garden with Yu Zhifu, this orchid garden is quiet, and all kinds of orchids everywhere complement each other with this pavilion and water pavilion, and jointly build an elegant garden. Zhang Xun sighed in his heart, "Fucheng is Fucheng, and its heritage is far beyond the reach of a county." "Walk slowly along the trail and smell the light orchid. Coming to the door of a small courtyard, a big stone is engraved with the word "Lanxi", which is quite leisurely and elegant. Zhang Xun asked Master Yu: "Orchids have always had" a true gentleman in flowers, with an elegant demeanor. ". I don't know who the lord of this orchid garden is?" Before Lord Yu could reply, there was a burst of laughter in the small courtyard. Then an old man walked out of the courtyard and said to Zhang Xun: "Old man Dai Yisong, when you are old, you just plant flowers like this and pass the time, and you should not be called a little friend elegant." Zhang Xun bowed and said, "Xiaosheng Zhang Xun has seen Dai Lao. Dai Lao accepted Zhang Xun's gift and said to Master Yu: "The old man went in first, Wei Guo, you take Zhang Xun's little friend around this orchid garden and then enter the hospital." So he went into the courtyard. Master Yu took Zhang Xun to continue walking, while introducing the origin of this Dai Lao. It turned out that this Dai Lao was also ranked as the third duke, and he was appointed as the imperial historian, and returned to his hometown ten years ago. Dai Mingjiang and Dai Mingquan are Dai Lao's two sons, and Yu Weiguo and Yu Zhifu are Dai Lao's early students.

Entering the small courtyard, Dai Lao had already gone back to his house to rest. Zhang Xun also knew that Dai Lao had just been able to see him, and he had already expressed his attitude by calling him a little friend. On the stone table in the small courtyard there are carefully cooked delicacies, and Lord Yu, the Dai brothers, and Zhang Xun each sit on one side. The dishes have gone through three rounds, and the wine has passed five flavors. The four of them began to discuss current events and the next direction of Zibo's development. Zhang Xun didn't express much opinion, after all, he only knew about Yiyuan County. Listening to the three old Zibo people talking about the history of Zibo and discussing the future of Zibo, Zhang Xun gradually understood the situation in Zibo. Zhang Xun knows that these are not things that can be known by watching "Zibo Chronicles". If it weren't for Dai Lao's recognition of himself, Master Yu and the Dai family brothers would not have told him.

After Zhang Xun returned from the Orchid Garden that day, he decided that it would be better for him not to lead anything in the first year of his tenure. So in the past few months, Zhang Xun has not done any other official business except for the documents that need him to sign and take effect, and he has carefully read the signatures. Every morning, I read the "Zibo Chronicles" and some official documents from the following counties, and in the afternoon, I walked around Zibo Mansion with Xinlan and Xiao Zhangxing. Zhang Xun is not a person who fights for power and profit, and he has lived a leisurely life.

One day in late May, at nine o'clock in the morning, Zhang Xun was looking at the official document at his desk, and Yuchan came and said that the second lady was about to give birth. Zhang Xun immediately returned to the mansion and looked forward to the birth of his second child. When Wen Po came to him and said that he had given birth to a daughter, Zhang Xun sealed a big red envelope for Wen Po and sent it to the door. Zhang Xun was not patriarchal in the first place, and now he is happy to have both children and daughters. When I entered the room, I saw Wen Xin lying on the bed a little lost, so I stepped forward to hold Wen Xin's little hand and said kindly: "Hello daughter, this is the most beautiful little flower in our Zhang family, and it will be as beautiful as you when it grows up." I think the name is Zhang Qianwen. Wen Xin smiled and said, "Then husband, you bring her over and let me see how beautiful Qianwen is." ”

Xiao Qianwen's birth once again filled the Zhang family with laughter. Xinlan also likes Xiao Qianwen very much, and every day after feeding Xiao Zhang Xing, she coaxes him to sleep and goes to Wenxin's room to see Xiao Qianwen. Zhang Xun knew that since he entered the Lu Kingdom, he had been sharp, although he was forced to be helpless, but it was not good after all. So let yourself calm down and listen to other people's opinions with an open mind. It is to give full respect to subordinates, rather than doing everything according to oneself as before.

Spring goes to autumn, cold comes and summer. Ten years later, Zhang Xun has four children. Two men and two girls, in addition to Zhang Xing and Zhang Qianwen, Xinlan gave birth to a daughter in February of the third year, and Zhang Xun named her Zhang Xiuya, and Wen Xin gave birth to a son in August of the third year, and Zhang Xun named him Zhang Ming. In the past ten years, Zhang Xun has not plagiarized any poems and articles in his previous life, like a hermit, and he was safely sentenced in Zibo Mansion. For ten years, Lu Guowendao never heard Zhang Xun's voice again. Gradually, from the prosperous capital to the remote countryside in the territory of Lu, there is a saying that "Zhang Lang is exhausted", and it has become an idiom.

In the past ten years, Zhang Xun has tried his best to be a good husband and father. In the eyes of outsiders, Zhang Xun has completely lost his ambition and has become a ridiculous "little rich is safe", only knowing that "his wife and children are hot on the kang". Even Lord Qin Xuewen, who was once optimistic about his promotion to the head of the household department, and Lord Wang Xingwu, who was promoted to the head of the Ministry of Officials, were also desperate for him. Zhang Xun knows very well that what he is going to do must first be hidden, and if a big thing is to be hidden, he must deceive the people close to him and those who support him, and in the end you may deceive the person you want to deceive. Only when the people in the world who are most sure of you have despaired of you will your opponents (enemies) believe that you are truly hopeless.

In the past ten years, in the first few years, the children were taken care of when they were young, and when they were older, they began to teach them to read and practice calligraphy. And the four daughters of Xinlan, Wen Xin, Bihe, and Yuchan, in the next five years, Zhang Xun began to mention to them about cultivating immortals, except for the matter of Yupei. Although the aura of heaven and earth in the Wenchang Continent is not pure enough to absorb it and thus produce a sense of qi and enter the qi refining period, Zhang Xun still let the four women practice the worldly martial arts first, and it is easy to cut the marrow. The biography of his master's cultivation of immortals, Zhang Xun first read it by himself, and then explained it to the four daughters. (Zhang Xun knew that everything was his life, and no one dug a pit for him to jump, but he was the one who should be robbed!) )

During this decade, the binding force of the Temple of Literature on the imperial court became weaker and weaker, and the monarchs of the Seven Kingdoms began to gradually establish their authority. With the death of a handful of great Confucians, the Hanlin Academy gradually became a puppet of the princes and nobles, and became a tool for them to fool the people and control public opinion. In particular, the Qin State was suppressed by Wendao for too long, and directly began to burn books and pit Confucianism after the death of the last great Confucian, and overnight, hundreds of thousands of books were destroyed, and more than 400 Confucian scholars were buried alive. The development of all this Zhang Xun ten years ago when he watched the sky at night and saw the purple microstar, he knew it. It was also at that time that Zhang Xun realized that Xingwendao was not to frequently make peerless works, but to preserve the "seeds" of Wendao. Since Ziwei Star has appeared, there will inevitably be an emperor, this is the number of days, and manpower cannot be reversed. And the emperor, especially the founding emperor, could not tolerate the existence of such a special force as the Temple of Literature.

If Zhang Xun wants to keep the "seeds" of Wendao, he must first remove his reputation that has been passed down all over the world, and only by being unknown and not being noticed can he have the time and energy to find these "seeds". Zhang Xun knew that he was just a midpoint, and he had to find the "seeds" for the inheritance of the drunken Taoist people and the memories of the Chinese civilization in his previous life, so that they could inherit and carry it forward. There are seven of these "seeds" in the Wenchang Continent, one from each country. Zhang Xun knew that he had only met one so far, that is, Du Wenli, whom he named (Lianzhong Sanyuan, that is, the township test Xie Yuanhui test meeting Yuan Hall test champion, all of which was obtained by himself. Zhang Xun just gave him a set of ancient books and five classics left by drunken Taoists. )。

Zhang Xun remembered what the Zen master Wufa had said to him: "Thirty years later, see you again on Penglai Immortal Island." At that time, he didn't understand, until that night, when Ziwei appeared and Zhang Xun wrote twelve words, "The day Emperor Qin ascended the throne, that is, the time he left Wenchang." "Thirteen years have passed, and there are still seventeen years to go. It seems that the time is not short, but the "seed" is not so easy to find, not to mention that Qin wants to annex the Six Kingdoms, so it will naturally start a war, and this time is seven years later. In other words, Zhang Xun had to find the "seed" within seven years, and then find an unknown place before the war began, and give the inheritance to the "seed" in ten years. Yes, it is not a teaching, imitation and reference can only become a master at most, and only by forming your own style and having a unique insight, and opening a precedent, can you become a grandmaster.

Zhang Xun went to the capital Qufu alone and entered the palace to submit his resignation to King Lu, and King Lu saw that Zhang Xun had been so depressed in the past ten years, so he naturally agreed with a big pen. After Zhang Xun resigned, he returned to Zibo again, took four daughters and four children, and the family of nine first went to Yimeng Landscape Scenic Area for half a month, and then came to Laiwu Outer City, went to Hefu, and stayed with his father-in-law and mother-in-law for half a month in Hefu.

Of course, Zhang Xun is going to start looking for the "seeds" of the other six countries, but before going to other countries, he has to put a smoke bomb, which is to make the outside world think that he is in love with travel, and his new ambition is to travel all over the world. Isn't there an idiom called "playthings lose their minds", Zhang Xun started from the Yimeng Landscape Scenic Area that he personally promoted. Zhang Xun began to write articles again, but it was just a travelogue.
