[Comprehensive] Shining like the sun and the moon

In March of another year, Zhang Mao returned to Beijing to report on his duties, went through the procedures of the Ministry of Officials, and was successfully promoted to another level.However, as before, he did not choose to stay in the capital as a capital official.

"I said, why are you so stubborn? Isn't it good to stay in the capital?"

Zhang Mao's face has faded from his youthful youthfulness, but his personality has obviously not changed: "Why is this official so stubborn? You don't understand. I still have to support my family."

"If you say this, who will believe it?" Prince Zhao, oh no, he has now inherited his father's title as Marquis Zhao, and now he is an official and a minister of the court.

Believe it or not, believe it or not, hey, he is destined to be a high official and plead for the people, he is also very helpless.

"Time flies so fast, this year is the time to get a doctor again."

Marquis Zhao didn't like to hear these words: "Don't talk about it, you are a three-yuan and first-ranked man, and many people behind you have never overshadowed you. Right now, there are still people who don't give up and come to me to inquire about you. Mr. Jia!"

Zhang Mao was amused when he heard this: "Is there such a thing? That's a good relationship. If they can find Mr., I'll treat them to a drink, and it doesn't matter how long it takes."

Lord Zhao Hou glanced at Zhang Mao, but said nothing.If he should persuade him, he has already persuaded him. Zhang Mao is not the kind of person who dwells on the past, and it is enough to stop.

"Speaking of which, when I returned to Beijing this time, I also met an acquaintance."

"acquaintance?"

Zhang Mao thought for a while, then shook his head again: "Familiar with... a monster."

Lord Zhao felt that he didn't really want to hear the next story, but obviously he couldn't.

"Actually, you've seen him."

"It's impossible! Since then, I haven't encountered a supernatural event." He usually avoids walking, and will never take a second look.

Zhang Mao: ...Did I say anything to the damned officer every day!

"Plum Blossom Village Poetry Society, I have painted his portrait."

Marquis Zhao thought about it for a while, and tried to think about it again: "Sorry, I can't remember."

Zhang Mao pretended he didn't hear it, and continued: "His name is Ma Jiefu, and this time he is taking Yang Xi, a junior whom he recognizes, to Beijing for the exam."

Marquis Zhao was shocked immediately: "It's also... a demon?"

"It's a human being, and he's less than twenty years old. He's also the Jie Yuan of Jinhua Mansion."

"Oh, it's not your husband's disciple again, is it?"

Zhang Mao shook his head, with inexplicable pride in his eyes: "My husband only took me in, but that fellow Ma Jiefu is so shameless that he snatched the teaching assistants that my husband made for me. It's really abominable!"

Lord Zhao was shocked: "You have this kind of thing, why didn't you take it out earlier! Do you know how long I've been annoyed!"

Zhang Mao looked innocent: "You didn't ask."

"..." Could it be his fault, let's break up the relationship.

"Speaking of which, I know Yang Xi. It was Mr. Yang who made the move in the first place, so that he can have his current future." This trip to the north was also a coincidence, and he unexpectedly met Yang Wanshi again.

This Yang Wanshi actually brought a child along the street to beg. The most frightening thing was that the child had... the face of Judge Lu.

At that time, he was still shocked. Didn't the master say that Yang Wanshi had no descendants?

As soon as he and Ma Jiefu made up their minds, they went to the underworld to ask someone, but it turned out that... this is not Yang Wanshi's child at all.After the Yang family separated, Yang Wanshi and his wife lived a comfortable life.

But the good times didn't last long. Yang Wanshi's reputation was stolen because of his "misconduct". .

Yang Wanshi's heart aches, he can't make a living, he can only sell his ancestral house to live.

Who knows, but within five months, Yin Shi came back again, saying that she found out she was pregnant after leaving, and begged him to forgive him. Yang Wanshi, who has soft ears, accepted Yin Shi again for the sake of the child.

As for Mrs. Yin, with a child in her arms, she resumed her previous behavior, beating and scolding Yang Wanshi, but Yang Wanshi endured it again for the sake of the child.

Then, the most embarrassing thing came. After giving birth and confinement, Mrs. Yin ran away with Yang Wanshi's money.Now, Yang Wanshi can only beg for a living.

Marquis Zhao was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, and he has never heard such a story: "The Yin family is really hateful, what happened to her?"

Zhang Mao quickly said: "She ran away for the first time and followed a man. The man died in an accident, and she came back pregnant. In fact, the child did not belong to Yang Sheng at all."

Marquis Zhao: "...it's too hateful."

"Later she was cheated of money, and I don't know where she was sold." Zhang Mao said, and then said, "Actually, you can still see Ma Jiefu, but the 'son' has some problems, so he is in the south. Stayed for two more days."

"What's the problem?"

So Marquis Zhao heard another story about the magistrate of the underworld changing the heart and head of the living for selfish reasons.

"This hell is too careless about things! How is this different from corrupt officials in the human world? People still care about relationships after death. This makes people feel uncomfortable after death."

"That's the reason."

Marquis Zhao agreed very much: "Such a person should be punished!"

It was rare for the two of them to talk. It was also the first time Master Zhao heard Zhang Mao talking about these ghosts and ghosts. Although he thought it was scary, but after listening to it a lot, he found that it was no different from human things. If you can't ask for it, you have this disaster.

"At this time, it would be nice to have a jug of good wine."

"Yes."

In the private room of the two, there was a third voice suddenly: "Who said there is no good wine! Good wine is here."

Hey——Hearing the voice, Marquis Zhao was so scared that he jumped behind Zhang Mao. Zhang Mao was quite calm, after all... After several years of living like this, he couldn't even think about being calm.

"Brother Ma, you scared my friend."

Ma Jiefu: ...But your expression doesn't mean that :).

"This must be Marquis Zhao, young man Ma Jiefu, it's a pleasure to meet you."

Master Zhao: "...Hello, hello." Oh my god, hello.

"Is the matter settled?"

Ma Jiefu put down the wine, nodded and said: "Well, it's settled, we can't let Xi'er be dragged down by these people."

Zhao Houye automatically understood that it was some bloody method, so he became even more afraid.

"Hey, if I hadn't been in a good mood today, I definitely wouldn't have brought out this wine."

Ma Jiefu had just finished speaking, and Zhang Mao had already lifted the wine seal, and a strong aroma of wine wafted out instantly, his eyes lit up: "This is——you kept it for yourself! No wonder you were reincarnated as a fox! "

He just said, Mr. brewed so much loquat wine that day, how could it be a disaster in one night.

"Good wine! Come and have a drink with me." Lord Zhao Hou said directly, regardless of his fear.

"Don't give, don't give, don't give!"

The childish two played together, and after a lot of snatching, the jar of wine quickly ran out.

This wine cellar has been stored for many years, and it is very energetic. Both Zhang Mao and Zhao Shizi are drunk, talking with big tongues, either clamoring to drink more, or thinking that Si Yang has entered the wrong business and should open a wine shop.

Years are always attached to goblins. Many years have passed, Zhao Shizi and Zhang Sheng are the past, but Ma Jiefu is still the same Ma Jiefu, his face has not changed, and his youth is still the same.

He was holding the wine glass, and there was not much wine in the wine glass. He raised his head and drank it, and suddenly remembered a rainy night a few years ago.

That was the last time he saw Daoist Si Yang.

At that time, there was a lot of rain, and their fox demons always used their breath to identify a person, but that day, although the rain would cover some of it, it was true that he was on the head of the director. Feel a strange breath.

Director Si Daochang has a round and introverted breath, just like an ordinary person, without dazzling golden light, nor strong merit, just like ordinary people on the street.

He still remembers the first words he said at that time: "Master Dao, your concealment technique succeeded?"

Then the chief priest had a slightly astonished expression on his face, and he was a little playful, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he asked him to inquire about a temple called Dajue Temple.

The reward is this jar of loquat brew.

So Zhang Sheng, it's not him who hides the wine at all, but that gentleman in your family who seems harmless to humans and animals.

Later, he went to many places and finally found out the whereabouts of Dajue Temple.Later, he heard that the murals in Dajue Temple lost their spirituality overnight, and the temple also fell into ruins within a few years.

Hey, I don't know where Daoist Siyang is now.

Over the years, he has traveled far and wide, and even met Yan Chixia twice. Compared with Jinhua City, Daoist Yan's skills are much deeper, and his eyes have become more determined. Whenever he met him, he only asked him if he had any loquats. Wine is not so good.

Can he give it, but specifying is not possible.

Such a good wine, if he hadn't been in a really good mood today, he would never have brought it out.Today, his state of mind has improved again, and when Xi'er's gold list is inscribed, he should also find a deep mountain retreat.

On the second day, each separated.

Zhang Mao bid farewell to his friends and started on the road alone.

When he arrived in Henan, he heard the people on the street praising the county magistrate. Unfortunately, the county magistrate turned out to be his acquaintance Wang Nian.

Who is Wang Nian?The shadow of his childhood, but the current Wang Nian is not the previous Wang Nian.

Without even thinking about it, Zhang Mao walked away, and then... bumped into Wang Nian.

"Master Zhang, long time no see."

"...Long time no see."

Wang Nian was very happy: "How is Taoist?"

Zhang Mao could only nod his head, saying that the husband is very good.

Wang Nian became even happier: "That's great, can you please bring a word to the Taoist priest?"

"What?"

"Master Zhang, you must know it. You told the Taoist priest that the little girl never dared to forget. She has been working hard for the original goal. She is always grateful for the help of the Taoist priest. I hope the Taoist priest will have a safe and smooth life."

Zhang Sheng originally heard that the little girl was a little terrified, but at the end, he smiled: "Well, sir, he will definitely know your mind."

As a result, Wang Nian also put a smile on his face.

"Huh? Isn't that..." Zhu Erdan's wife who changed her head? !Did he read it right? !

Wang Nian looked over and smiled: "That's the steward of the Cixin Hall in our county. Mr. Zhang, don't look down on women. She is very capable here, no worse than your men."

Zhang Mao: "..." You are also a man now, okay?

However, it's not bad, the world is karma, you take a step, make a choice, no matter whether you are a human, a ghost or a demon, there is always a karma.

Maybe he was unwilling in the past, but now he feels that being an official is really not bad, and giving up food because of choking will only trap people in place, it is better to break free, maybe there will be a brighter future.

However, he still really wants to know how the current "Mrs. Wang" is doing. Oh, I really want to know~
