Liao Zhai alchemist

Chapter 241 Fate
Back in his body, Zhang Wei was thinking about how to get close to Cao Bin.This task is not difficult to say, easy to say is not easy.

Just find Chen Zhirui!

Today outside, Chen Zhirui saw him, but why didn't he see Chen Zhirui.But in this case, what is the difference between saying that you will forget each other in the world, but then sending a message to ask your ex-girlfriend to pinduoduo?
Zhang Wei thought for a while, but couldn't come up with a good solution.

Is it really necessary to 'cut a knife'?
The next day, Zhang Wei changed into new clothes, brought gifts, and visited Cao's mansion again.Cao Bin still did not come home last night, and it is said that his wife was very angry.The servants are more careful in doing things.

Seeing Zhang Wei coming, the porter hurriedly said, "Zhuangyuan Lang, why are you here again?"

Zhang Wei said: "I still want to..." Before he finished speaking, he heard a voice from inside: "Prepare the car! I don't believe it anymore? Could it be that there are seductive vixen in the official office? No one will return home!"

Hearing this voice, the concierge was terrified, because it was Mrs. Cao's voice.He hastily closed the door with a bang, which made Zhang Wei shut down.

Afterwards, the concierge stretched out his head and said, "Hurry up, you will be scolded when Madam comes out to see you."

Hearing this, Zhang Wei had no choice but to leave temporarily.Not long after, he saw Cao's mansion stepping out of a carriage, followed by many servants and maids, walking towards the official office in a mighty manner.

Mr. Cao didn't return all night, this Mrs. Cao is going to arrest Mrs. Cao!

Mrs. Cao left, Zhang Wei went again, wanted to see Chen Zhirui, but was told that Chen Zhirui had gone out too!
Zhang Wei sighed, and said, "It's fine, if it's broken, it's broken, why do you still do this." After speaking, he turned around and left freely.

I had to think of another way, but what way?

Zhang Wei frowned, and unknowingly came to the Shenxiao sect's residence in the capital, outside the Baiyun Temple.

"Is this person Zhang Wei, Junior Brother Zhang?" Suddenly, a surprised voice came from the door of Baiyun Temple.

Zhang Wei looked up and saw that it was Zheng Chuanxi, a disciple of Baiyun Temple who had met once when he went to Beijing to rush for the exam.

"It's Brother Zheng!" Zhang Wei saluted.

"Didn't Junior Brother Zhang go to work in Tianmen County? Why are you here?" Zheng Chuanxi said in surprise, and hurried down the steps to Zhang Wei's side.

"It's just some business." Zhang Wei said vaguely.In fact, the two of them are not too familiar. When Zhang Wei visited Baiyun Temple according to the etiquette, the people in Baiyun Temple liked to ignore them.

But now, Zhang Wei's reputation is so great that the people of Baiyun Temple can't afford it!
Zheng Chuanxi smiled and said, "Since you're here, come in and sit down." After speaking, he strongly invited Zhang Wei to come in for a rest.

The Baiyun Temple was built in the capital city, and naturally it did not occupy as much land as the Qingwei Pai, which occupied two mountains, but it was also a place where incense was at its peak.Because in the middle of the busy city, there are people coming and going here, and there is a little less of the dusty air of the Taoist school, and a little more of the fireworks of the world.

Unable to accept the hospitality, Zhang Wei could only go in with Zheng Chuanxi.

Just as he walked into the gate of Baiyun Temple, among the crowd, a woman suddenly bumped into him.

It seems to be the traction of fate, and it also seems to be the arrival of fate.

The woman who bumped into Zhang Wei's arms was none other than Chen Zhirui.

"Miss! Are you okay!" The little maid from behind hurriedly squeezed over.

At this time, Zhang Wei was holding Chen Zhirui's back, and said in a tone that he didn't know how to describe: "What a coincidence, we meet again!"

This is not known to be the first few coincidences.

Chen Zhirui recalled that the meeting between her and Zhang Wei was mostly a coincidence.It was the same today, bored in her heart, she took her maid, Xiaolu, out early.

The two masters and servants didn't take a car or a sedan chair, they just wandered aimlessly.Somehow, he came to the front of Baiyun Temple.

Then, they came in and burned a stick of incense.She made a wish she didn't know how, and she came out with Xiaolu.

There were too many people watching Baiyun, she was squeezed in the crowd, and fell to the side at once.

And the place where it fell was Zhang Wei's arms.

If this is not fate, then there will be no more fate in the world!
Zhang Wei looked at the dumbfounded Chen Zhirui, and was about to put his hands away and let her go.But the next moment, Chen Zhirui grabbed his hand.

Zheng Chuanxi, who was next to him, saw this and said with great interest, "Junior Brother Zhang, is this your friend?"

Zhang Wei hastily introduced, "This is the niece of Mr. Cao Ge at that time, and also my friend."

Zheng Chuanxi smiled and said, "I am a Taoist priest of Baiyun Temple, and my name is Zheng Chuanxi. Since you are a friend of Junior Brother Zhang, why don't you come in and sit down together?"

Chen Zhirui hurriedly said: "Then bother."

Let's all walk into the backyard of Baiyun Temple, which is a place where idlers are not allowed to enter.

When he came to Zheng Chuanxi's room, a Taoist boy came over to serve tea and water.The three sat in the room and drank some tea, and then Zheng Chuanxi said: "Brother Zhang, I have also heard about you. I heard that you are advancing the matter of exterminating locusts. Your plan is indeed bold and quite innovative."

Zhang Wei sighed and said, "Even so, it's quite difficult to advance."

Zheng Chuanxi said: "If you need help from our Baiyun Temple, you just need to ask your brother. Our two sects are of the same origin, so don't be polite!"

Zhang Wei said with a smile: "If necessary, I will definitely bother my comrades in Baiyun Temple."

Zheng Chuanxi immediately said: "Junior brother, don't think that we are being polite. In fact, we really want to help. If it doesn't work, you can also take out the Lei Shubao scroll and the Nine Heavens Exquisite Pagoda!"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Wei quickly said, "It's not in a hurry, it's not in a hurry! Haha."

Both the Thunder Book Treasure Scroll and the Nine Heavens Linglong Pagoda are the magic weapons of the Shenxiao Sect, and together with the Qingwei Sect's Tiankui Umbrella and Wulei Zhengyin, they become the Four Treasures of Leifa.

If you really use these treasures to deal with locusts, then you are really using cannons to fight mosquitoes!

Zheng Chuanxi looked at Chen Zhirui next to him, and said: "Junior Brother Zhang doesn't know something. Now our Shenxiao Sect's status in the capital is getting worse day by day. The people in Leihuo Palace are now full of holy families, and we can't get involved in many things." .There is an urgent need to do something to build momentum.”

Zhang Wei couldn't help but nodded when he heard this.Back then when Shen Xiao and Qing Wei separated, it was because the two factions wanted to take different routes.

Shen Xiao took the upper-level route and got close to the high-level court officials.But Qingwei takes the folk route and is sympathetic to the common people.This is not because there is any ideological difference between the two factions, but because the ancestors of the past deliberately separated them for the continuation of the orthodoxy.

Now due to the sudden emergence of Leihuo Palace, Shen Xiao's position in the imperial court is in jeopardy.In the final analysis, Lei Huo Gong was the son raised by the court alone, and no matter how close Shen Xiao was to the court, he was also raised from outside.

Even the old peasants in the countryside know what to do with their sons and adoptive sons, let alone these bigwigs in the court.

Zhang Wei thought for a while and said to them: "If this is the case, the locust plague is serious in Tianmen County now. You can send some people to resist the first and second. If there is any big move later, you can join directly."

With Zhang Wei's words, Zheng Chuanxi immediately said: "In that case, let's join in!"

They didn't think much of Zhang Wei, a disciple of the Qingwei Sect, but now, they have to rely on Zhang Wei, a disciple.Because all kinds of things show that Zhang Wei's current influence has penetrated into the heavens, the underworld, and the imperial court.

Coupled with Zhang Wei's original identity as a Taoist disciple, this is a key figure!
After talking about this, Zhang Wei stood up and said goodbye.Zheng Chuanxi hurriedly sent him to the outside of the temple.After Zhang Wei and Chen Zhirui had gone far away, he returned to the temple and consulted with the teachers.

And Zhang Wei continued to hang out with Chen Zhirui.

"After one or two years, why didn't you write a letter?" Chen Zhirui asked lightly.

"This... I'm afraid it's inconvenient." Zhang Wei said honestly.

"If you can't be a couple, can't you even be friends?" Chen Zhirui continued to ask.

"I'm getting married next year!" Zhang Wei had to make it clear.It is true that Chen Zhirui needs help, but he has to explain the matter clearly to her.If she doesn't help Zhang Wei because of this, Zhang Wei can only admit it.

"I'll drink your wedding wine." Chen Zhirui said stiffly.

Very good, this topic is dead.Both fell into silence.

The little maid behind her looked at the two of them, feeling anxious in her heart!
"How have you been these years? Why didn't you go back to Jinhua?" Zhang Wei asked looking for trouble.

"If I go back, I will be arranged for a blind date. Is this what you want to see?" Chen Zhirui asked suddenly.

Zhang Wei has no lines again!
"I don't want to marry someone I don't like." Chen Zhirui said lightly.

Zhang Wei remained silent.

The two wandered around aimlessly, and finally returned to Cao Mansion.At this time, Zhang Wei finally said: "I want to see Mr. Cao, can you help me?"

"I want to go to Tianmen County, can you help me?" Chen Zhirui didn't answer his question, but asked his own question.

"This..." Zhang Wei hesitated.He looked at Chen Zhirui who was staring at him, gritted his teeth and asked, "Why are you going to Tianmen County?"

Chen Zhirui smiled and said: "Go play, go relax, go see the snow in the northwest, and blow the wind in the northwest, isn't it okay?"

"If so, I can help you!" Zhang Wei finally said.

Chen Zhirui stared at Zhang Wei for a long time before she said, "Then I can help you too. You wait outside."

After finishing speaking, she walked into the Cao Mansion.

In the mansion, Mr. Cao Bin and Cao Ge were having dinner with his wife.It's too late if you don't come back!
Cao Bin's wife did not go to the Yamen to make trouble.Instead, he took the cook, the bedding, and the servants to the county government.

She said to Cao Bin gently: "My husband is dedicated to serving the public. As a woman, I naturally want to support him."

She paused and said, "It's my job to worry about the court, but it's my job to take care of him. Since he's so busy, I can only bring the cook and bedding here to take care of you."

"In this way, on the one hand, my husband can work better, and on the other hand, it will not affect my daily life of taking care of my husband. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone!"

The daughters of the Chen family are not simple people!To be the wife of the court elder, Mrs. Cao is not an ordinary woman who can only cry!

Everything she said made sense, and even the other people in the yamen couldn't fault it after hearing it.

If Mrs. Cao went to the Yamen to cry and make troubles, others would look down on her.But when she did so, the others could only raise their hands in praise.

Cao Bin became numb immediately!There is nothing wrong with this matter, but it cannot be done with emotion!If he really agrees, wouldn't the yamen be messed up.

He had no choice but to promise secretly that he would go home to eat and rest every day in the future.Mrs. Cao also lived in the yamen if she didn't.

However, Mrs. Cao is still very good at life. At noon that day, she asked the cook to cook a sumptuous lunch in the yamen, and invited the people in the yamen to have a meal.

Understand etiquette, know how to advance and retreat, dare to love and hate.This is the style and appearance of the girls of the Chen family.

"Sir, please don't be angry. Eat a chicken leg, forgive me." She was in the limelight during the day, but after returning home, Mrs. Cao still wanted to appease her husband.

Not only a man can bend and stretch, but also a little girl can be firm and soft!In this way the family will be harmonious.

When the two saw Chen Zhirui walking in, Mrs. Cao smiled and said, "Zhirui, you are back, where did you go to play today?"

As she spoke, she asked her servants to add more dishes.It's just that Chen Zhirui is in no mood to eat now.She said softly: "I went to Baiyun Temple today."

"Why do you go to Baiyun Temple? Do you offer incense and make a wish?" Her aunt asked with a smile.

"My niece heard that there was a plague of locusts in the north, so she went to burn incense to express her heart." Chen Zhirui said.

Hearing this, Cao Bin nodded in satisfaction, and said, "It's good that you have this kind of heart. Unlike some people, who don't care about the affairs of the court and only add to my troubles!"

When Mrs. Cao heard this, she immediately said: "Yes, yes, I have caused you trouble! But it can't be because of this, so busy that you don't go home! Everyone in the court needs to take care of it, so don't we care about our little family? ?"

Cao Bin was still a little unreasonable, so he just snorted and ate the chicken drumstick silently.

At this time, Chen Zhirui suddenly said: "I heard that Tianmen County was the hardest hit. The magistrate of Tianmen County has asked to come to the house. Do you want to see me too?"

When Cao Bin heard this, he was so surprised that even the chicken legs fell into the bowl.On the other side, Mrs. Cao obviously hadn't realized who the magistrate of Tianmen County was, but in order to save herself from the situation of "not caring about national affairs", she quickly said: "Then we still have to see each other, after all, human life is at stake, right?" Your husband?"

After she finished saying this, she suddenly felt something was wrong.Shouted suddenly: "Isn't the county magistrate of Tianmen County Zhang Wei?"

Then she stared at her niece, but her niece lowered her head!

'Ouch!My silly niece, you were bullied by Zhang Wei and came home! Madam Cao felt great hatred in her heart.Zhang Wei is extremely shameless, he abandoned his niece, and now when he has to ask for help from others, he dares to be ashamed to ask her!

"No..." She was about to say no, but she saw her husband glaring at her.Cao Bin put down the bowl and chopsticks, and said lightly, "Let him come to the study to find me!"

"Yes, uncle!" Chen Zhirui hurriedly agreed, and then ran out without even daring to look at her aunt's face.
