Zhang Zhi's worry could not escape Zhang Bai's eyes, and Zhang Bai asked tentatively: "Is there anything unsatisfactory at home?"

Zhang Zhi sighed. He remembered that Zhang Wen had mentioned in Zhang Wen's letter home that Zhang Bai participated in political affairs in Shu and was favored by Zhuge Liang. He felt that Zhang Bai was no longer a child and he did not hide it too much.

"After my eldest brother returned to the Kingdom of Wu, he came and went in a hurry. He didn't even bother to go home for a visit, so he accepted the military post and went to Yuzhang under the order of the Lord. This... alas!" Zhang Zhi sighed again. , and didn’t speak too clearly.

"The second brother is worried. Does the Lord have suspicion about the eldest brother?"

Zhang Zhi was startled and looked at Zhang Bai in surprise, speechless for a moment.

Zhang Bai would think this way, actually because according to historical records, the Wu Guoji Porn Case broke out in this year.The people who chose Cao Shangshu, Ji Yan, and the people who chose Cao Lang, Xu Biao, were sentenced to death, which implicated Zhang Wen.

The Zhang family suffered a disaster and gradually declined from then on.

Zhang Wen was dismissed by Sun Quan and returned to his own county, and was no longer employed. Zhang Zhi and Zhang Bai's futures were cut off.The most miserable among them was Zhang Wen's second sister. She was originally married to Gu Cheng of the Gu family in Soochow, but was forcibly remarried by the authorities to the Ding family. She committed suicide by drinking medicine on her wedding day.

After staying for a long time, Zhang Zhi said worriedly: "The third brother is indeed well versed in political affairs. In fact, this is just my guess. The Wu-Shu alliance has just been completed, and there was no reward for such a great achievement, but he went to Yuzhang to annihilate Shanyue. The eldest brother is Qingliu. , and he is not someone who covets military glory. If the Lord treats me like this, I'm afraid... Alas!"

"I'm afraid?" Zhang Bai said, "I'm afraid the Zhang family will be in trouble soon!"

calamity?

Zhang Zhi was only worried about Zhang Wen's future and did not think about any trouble. The Zhang family was a wealthy family in Wu County, what trouble could happen?

Zhang Bai saw that Zhang Zhi didn't know why, so he continued: "The eldest brother has such a great reputation, how can we tolerate the Sun family's intolerance? Although Qingliu is on the right path, my second brother must know what happened to Kong Rong, right?"

"Cao Cao was an eunuch who didn't like the aristocratic family, so he was killed because of his anger. Lord Wu was not from a noble family, but actually came from a poor family. But we, the noble family, have no real power and are not close to the military, but they often talk lightly. Government is the way to death."

Zhang Zhi was shocked when he heard this, but remained silent.

Seeing his hesitation, Zhang Bai leaned forward and asked again: "Eldest brother, do you often correspond with Ji Yan, Xu Biao and others?"

Zhang Zhi was surprised again and nodded in agreement.

Zhang Bai said: "This is a disaster! Ji and Xu were originally valued by the Lord of Wu and had the real power to select and remove Cao Cao. The Lord of Wu hoped that they could control the four major surnames in Wu. However, these two people did not show any success in selecting Cao Cao. However, he ejected hundreds of officials and made unreasonable suggestions for promotion. Seeing that he was guilty of all the major surnames, it caused many disputes. In the eyes of my younger brother, Lord Wu will eventually abandon him."

"The eldest brother has a good relationship with the two of them, and he is of a noble nature, so he can't help but talk about it with each other all the time. It's easy to talk in words, but in private letters, the words in black and white will definitely be true. Once Master Wu traces it, Zhang will be in trouble!"

His remarks were as conclusive as if they were coming in person, and Zhang Zhi was stunned.

Although Zhang Zhi is a smart man, he doesn't know how to tell fortunes with his fingers. How can he think of history as a prediction like Zhang Bai and think so far-reaching.

To him, Zhang Bai's analysis of Lord Wu was impressive.

The actions of Ji Yan, Xu Biao, and Zhang Wen were indeed as Zhang Bai said, and there were many things that could easily be criticized.

However, is it too radical to just combine these things and come to the conclusion that Zhang is in trouble?

"The third brother studied under Wolong and really learned how to know thousands of miles. However, the Zhang family is entrenched in Wu County and has a deep foundation. The Lord of Wu is also a servant. How can he see the Zhang family suffer?"

"I said that the Zhang family will be in trouble because of the official careers of my three brothers. Their lives are still safe. Lord Wu probably used this as a stern warning. In short, how can others be allowed to sleep soundly next to the Sun family's bed?" Zhang Bai An allusion from the Song Dynasty was used.

Zhang Zhi raised his eyelids and said: "This is a wonderful statement!"

He became happy now, "Let's stop talking about this matter! Anyway, I am responsible for the internal affairs of the family, and all external affairs depend on my eldest brother. We can't understand each other, so it's not easy to make random guesses!"

He changed the subject, "Speaking of which, my eldest brother explained in his letter that he has chosen a marriage for you. Did you know that?"

Ga!WTF?

This plot unfolded completely beyond Zhang Bai's expectation. Okay, what kind of emergency is this?

"This... I really don't know. I think I, Zhang Bai, am young, so my marriage is not urgent, right?"

"You are already fifteen, and you are ready to get married. Although you are a little young, marriage is a major event. Your parents are matchmakers. Since your parents died early, your eldest brother is like your father. And since your brother has chosen your marriage, don't shirk it. .”

"But...I..."

"You are young and thin-skinned, I understand! There is no need to say anything, I will arrange everything."

Shen Teima, I am thin-skinned, and I, Zhang Bai, can't be thin-skinned by anything, so Zhang Bai protested wildly in his stomach.

"No, second brother, I...I already have a sweetheart."

Zhang Zhi didn't expect Zhang Bai to speak so boldly. For a son of aristocratic family, this was simply unscrupulous.

After being startled, he suddenly laughed again.

Zhang Zhi was a romantic person in the Wei and Jin Dynasties. He didn't like the secular world. Zhang Bai's unruly talk was in line with his temperament.

"The third brother is cool and unrestrained, which is what I am. But there is nothing wrong with a real man having three wives and four concubines. You listen to the second brother on this matter, don't say much, just wait for the good news!"

"Uh, no..."

"Oh, no need to say more, just let me make the arrangements, hahaha!"

Haha, you are so big!Zhang Bai felt bitter in his heart and couldn't express it.

I didn't expect that when I went back to my hometown to pay respects to my ancestors, I would end up with such a messy thing that forced me to get married.If they get married, how will they be able to see Mu Jing again in the future?

Mu Jing is a big shot in the Xuanxian Realm, and when he is angry...ah, what a disaster!Disaster!

He wanted to continue to persuade Zhang Zhi, but the more reluctant Zhang Bai became, the more enthusiastic Zhang Zhi became, and finally he couldn't get enough of it.

"It seems that there is only one way, to worship the ancestors quickly and buy food, and then return to Shu. If you can't offend me, you can't escape?"

With this thought, he no longer objected and obeyed obediently without arguing.

After the conversation, Zhang Bai checked into a side courtyard of the Zhang family. He lived in the same courtyard as Tu Qia, but in separate rooms.

As soon as he settled in, Zhang Bai asked the servants to leave for the time being, using the excuse that he was used to being served by Tu Xia.

He asked the wooden cat to come out and hide on the roof to monitor the surroundings.

Seeing that there was no one around, he quickly arranged for Tu Flea to leave the house immediately.Buy a house secretly, preferably one with a cellar.He wanted to use it to decorate the entrance to the Star Technique and use it to escape back to Shu.

The flea was very obedient and set off immediately after receiving the money.

He didn't go through the main entrance, jumped outside the courtyard after a few ups and downs, and left Zhang's house easily.

Then Zhang Bai sent Wang Yanke and asked him to inquire about the price of rice in Wu County just like he did in Chengdu.

......

That night, after Zhang Bai had dinner, he chatted and played chess with Zhang Zhi again, and his chess skills once again surprised Zhang Zhi.

"My third brother worked very hard during his travels, and he even excelled at chess. Do you know that the eldest brother of the current emperor, Sun Ce and Sun Bofu, was also good at chess during his lifetime. You were born at the wrong time! Otherwise, you will be favored.”

Zhang Baixan said with a smile: "Historians never say what is true, but Sun Bofu is a victorious general. If he is defeated by me, his head may not be saved!"

Zhang Zhi laughed loudly, and the two people in the hall chatted and laughed.

The master is happy, and the servants can't help but feel a little happy when they see it.

Several young and talkative maids began to discuss secretly.
